After exchanging beast mates, those crazy S-rank beasts are all vying to be my pets.

Chapter 171 The Underlying Nature is Kindness

"Alright, stop crying. If you keep crying, you'll cry away all your good fortune and ruin your family."

Despite her anger, Sang Tian never considered divorcing Li Su.

"You still have a chance to make amends while my permissions are restored." Sang Tian gently forgave Li Su.

After all, she didn't hold back either; before Li Su's old wounds had even healed, new ones were added.

When Li Su heard this, her eyes lit up and she looked excited.

“We’ve been very busy at home lately, so don’t be idle. After you’ve recovered, go to the plantation to help with management. The mainland might be in a lot of turmoil for a while, so take some time to go back to Peru and reinforce that castle we talked about last time. Have Dr. Zhang reinforce it.”

Before Li Su could even adjust her emotions, she looked at Sang Tian with a bewildered expression.

"You should rest well. I'll have Bi Jingyan bring you some spiritual spring water and food later."

Sang Tian looked tired as she spoke, and after seeing that Li Su didn't react, she stopped talking.

"I'm going back."

During dinner, Sang Tian's request for Bi Jingyan to deliver food to Li Su drew the attention of everyone at the table.

Bai Mingchen's face darkened, worried that Sang Tian's attention had shifted to Li Su.

Since Tang Xiaoyan appeared, Sang Tian has been busy like a spinning top every day, and even they can't rest. The affairs of the black market's plantation fill their lives.

Bai Mingchen didn't know whether taking over another black market was a good or bad decision.

If I had only helped her with the plantation, I might have spent more time with her.

"Mingchen, let's start stocking up on gas masks tomorrow. Stock up on more to prevent anyone from raising prices later. We'll still sell them at the normal price."

"This isn't how the black market operates," Bao Zemin warned. "If we sell at the normal price at a crucial moment, won't Xingduan be wiped out?"

Sang Tian thought about it and agreed; prices that were too normal would indeed arouse suspicion.

"Then double the price, and be careful with stockpiling."

The situation on the Floating Islands is causing quite a stir right now, and nobody knows when a natural disaster will strike. The females on the mainland are still waiting for Xingduan to take action.

No sooner had he finished speaking than there came a frantic knocking on the door.

The people at the table exchanged glances, and Wu Lanyuan, who was sitting closest to the door, got up to open it.

Before she even appeared, Tang Xiaoyan's voice drifted into the living room.

"Something's happened, Shen Jinxi has been exposed."

Tang Xiaoyan rushed in, so anxious that she forgot to change her shoes, her face showing her worry.

"Qingzhi, pour her a glass of water." Sang Tian put down her chopsticks, got up, and led the people to sit on the sofa. "No rush, take your time. First, turn on the jammer."

Tang Xiaoyan was panting heavily, and her speech was broken and intermittent.

"She's asking for trouble by going to the Netherworld Prison. I warned her through the surveillance camera the day before yesterday not to go to the Netherworld Prison again, but she insisted on asking who I was. When I didn't tell her, she smashed the surveillance camera."

Tang Xiaoyan spoke with a mixture of anger and annoyance, “Then today I had the system check for bugs in the Wuming Prison, and it was found that the Wuming Prison was completely blocked.”

The Wuming Prison is not normally locked down. If it is locked down, there will be a ten-day cooling-off period, unless the people inside cause trouble or someone attempts to break in.

"Xingduan noticed that someone was frequently entering and leaving the Wuming Prison. The first time, it tried to lock me up inside, but I managed to escape. After that, it didn't lock me up. I guess it was waiting for me to come to it."

Shen Jinxi's frequent comings and goings likely indicate that she has been locked onto by Xingduan.

"I've seen people act up, but I've never seen anyone actually act up and die," Sang Tian commented. It seemed that she didn't even need to lift a finger; Xing Duan would have already taken care of Shen Jinxi.

Bi Jingyan asked, "Isn't this a good thing? We already have a scapegoat."

“She has already exposed her presence. Given Shen Jinxi’s character, if Xingduan really catches her, she will be the first one to be sold out.”

What Bai Mingchen deduced was exactly what Tang Xiaoyan was afraid of. She nodded hurriedly in agreement, "Yes, he truly is Shen Jinxi's ex-husband; she really did threaten me."

Bai Mingchen: "Just praise me for being smart, there's no need to say that specifically."

"How could you not guess, being a fellow ex-husband?" Bao Zemin asked, looking at Bi Jingyan with amusement.

Qingzhi knew that if the conversation continued, the fire would eventually burn her, so she said, "The topic has gone astray."

“I’m afraid Xingduan will use Shen Jinxi’s system to betray me.”

Following Shen Jinxi's system, Xingduan could easily find Tang Xiaoyan, and at that time, her memories would definitely be stripped away by Xingduan for investigation.

Sang Tian knew that she would not be able to escape when the time came.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help but remind her." Tang Xiaoyan lowered her head in apology, feeling guilty.

She didn't heed Sang Tian's advice, which led to her dragging Sang Tian down with her.

Shen Jinxi and Sang Tian have a grudge against each other, and now, because of her, Sang Tian has to save Shen Jinxi.

"I will not save her," Sang Tian declared. She then sent Tang Xiaoyan proof of Que Shiwen's murder of Zuo Ya and the forced injection of enhancement drugs into the Li Su tribe.

"What I sent you are all proof of Shen Jinxi's mistakes. Now have your system report to the people in Fanjin City and ask them to recall Shen Jinxi's system as soon as possible."

Tang Xiaoyan nodded and gave the system a command.

"How quickly can your system generate a response?"

"Two hours. Usually, the system has to find a loophole in the Star Terminal to get back, but recently the Star Terminal's attention has been on the mainland, so it should be faster than usual."

Sang Tian turned to look at the other five beastmen.

"Does anyone here still have Shen Jinxi's friends?"

Bao Zemin shook his head, "I haven't even accepted her friend request."

Bai Mingchen: "I blocked him a long time ago."

Qingzhi: "Me too."

Wu Lanyuan: "I'm just like them."

The last hope rested on Bi Jingyan.

“I forgot to delete…” Bi Jingyan’s throat tightened, feeling a strong sense of oppression, and he hated himself for not deleting the person.

Sang Tian wasn't annoyed. "How do you see her condition?"

The cloud account represents the female's status in real time. Under normal circumstances, the avatar frame should be lit up; when vital signs are lost, it should be grayed out; and when punished by the Stardust, it should be reddish.

Hearing this, Bi Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief and checked Shen Jinxi's status on the cloud.

"It's still normal."

For the next while, the group waited.

During this time, Tang Xiaoyan sighed frequently, deeply regretting that she had been too soft-hearted to remind Shen Jinxi.

"Stop sighing. Sighing won't solve anything now. They chose to bind you as their host to complete the mission because they value your abilities and character. Many things are unavoidable, so it's not your fault."

Sang Tian recalled how she had suffered a lot because of her soft heart at the beginning of the apocalypse, and the experience she gained almost lost her life in exchange for it.

Tang Xiaoyan has never experienced the wickedness of human nature, and her fundamental nature remains kind.

Hearing Sang Tian's comforting words, Tang Xiaoyan felt a warm current flow through her heart. "You don't blame me?"
