Chapter 471 You will never be allowed to covet the throne.

Yu Ling was unhappy that the Beast King had inquired about Qiao Xixi's whereabouts as soon as she arrived.

“She didn’t come. She said that if the mother wanted to see her, she would go to see her in person.”

The Beast King's pupils contracted, a flash of anger crossing his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

Just when Yu Ling thought the Beast King would be very angry, she heard her say, "Help me up."

Yu Ling stared wide-eyed in surprise, "What is this female mother doing? You are the Beast King, how could you go to see her? She's just a stray beast's cub!"

The Beast King frowned, but continued, "Help me up."

Yu Ling dared not interfere too much with the Beast King's decision. Although he was unhappy, he still helped her up.

When the gate of Yu Palace was knocked on again, Qiao Xixi thought it was Xi Jing returning.

She jogged forward to open the door, only to find that the person who came in was the Beast King.

Compared to her arrival, Qiao Xixi was more surprised by her condition. In just one or two days, she looked like she had been seriously ill, with dark circles under her eyes and her cheeks sunken.

"Is something wrong?"

"Qiao Xixi, don't be so arrogant. This is still in the palace. Do you really think we can't do anything to you?" Yu Ling rebuked angrily.

Qiao Xixi ignored her and instead focused her gaze on the Beast King. "If there's nothing else, don't bother me."

The Beast King took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in his chest.

"Yu Ling, you all wait outside."

"Female!"

The Beast Queen waved her hand dismissively, leaving no room for argument. She looked at Josie and said, "I have something to say to you."

Qiao Xixi raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, and stepped aside to let her in.

When the palace gates closed and Qiao Xixi returned to the living room, the Beast King was already sitting inside waiting.

She walked to the chair and sat down without saying a word, since she wasn't the one who had to say anything anyway.

"I can let you stay in the palace and enjoy everything that royalty has to offer, but on the condition that you absolutely cannot covet the throne, which belongs to the Spirit Masters."

Qiao Xixi almost burst out laughing. "The Beast King has condescended to come here, is it just to give me the chance to stay in the palace?"

The Beast King choked, his grip on the armrest tightening.

"Aren't you satisfied yet? You still want to fight for the throne?"

Qiao Xixi crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair leisurely. "You don't only have two kids, Yu Ling and Yu Ye, do you? Their fertility isn't very high. If they both die, wouldn't the throne be mine?"

The Beast King's face darkened, and she could no longer pretend. Her chest heaved with anger. The reason she came today was because she had truly felt the threat that Qiao Xixi posed to the throne, and she had also realized that there was a serious problem with her body.

Orcs are sensitive to life and death. She knew she might not have much time left, and she had to make arrangements for the succession to the throne before she died.

Her only worry right now is that Qiao Xixi will covet the throne, which is why she wants to start with a soft approach, negotiate with her, and make her give up that idea.

"I have already made it clear to the clan elders that I am the successor to the Spirit Control Society. You can forget about it!"

Qiao Xixi bowed slightly, coldly glancing at the Beast King.

"Since you've already made all the arrangements, why did you come here in the first place? Isn't it because you're afraid?"

"you!"

Qiao Xixi straightened up and began to think about a question.

The Spirit Master and the Beast King are on the same side, which means that if she takes over, even if nothing happens at first, they might try to trip her up later. If she takes over, she will be a hidden danger to them.

Before this potential threat fully materializes, could she nip it in the bud? She didn't know much about the Beast King City heir; she'd have to wait for her father to return before asking him.

"Josie, you will never be allowed to covet the throne!"

After the Beast King finished speaking, he forced himself to stand up and stormed off, looking very anxious, probably eager to get back and arrange for Yu Ling to succeed him.

"Xixi."

No sooner had the Beast King and his group left than Yaoxi arrived.

"Aunt Yaoxi, what brings you here?"

Yao Xi smiled gently and glanced in the direction the Beast King had left. "I just saw the Beast King. What was she doing here? Did she give you any trouble?"

Qiao Xixi shook her head and stepped aside to let her into the house.

"No, she wouldn't dare do anything to me now."

The Beast King knew that if something happened to her in the palace, her fathers would definitely not let it go. It wasn't that the Beast King was no longer capable of dealing with her, but rather that for her, the most important thing right now was to arrange for the Spirit Beast to inherit the throne.

She most likely doesn't want anything to go wrong because of her.

After all, she had heard that even if the Beast King ascended to the throne, he would still have to accept the challenges of warriors.

The Beast King is most likely worried that his father beast and the falcon owl will challenge the beast master of the spirit realm.
"I came here today to bring you some fruit. I heard from your father that you like to eat fruit."

"Aunt Yaoxi, you're too kind."

Qiao Xixi opened the animal skin bag and was stunned when she saw the fruit inside, but she quickly recovered and took a few fruits into a wooden basin to wash.

"They're all washed clean, Aunt Yaoxi, you should try some too."

Yaoxi took the orange fruit from her hand but didn't eat it. "This sun fruit is too sweet. I don't eat much of it. You can keep it."

Qiao Xixi smiled and took the fruit, then stuffed another green fruit into her hand.

"I like sweets, so I'll eat this one."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yaoxi asked, "Did the Beast King come over in person just now because of something?"

After thinking for a moment, Qiao Xixi smiled and said, "She's probably worried about me taking her throne."

Yao Xi was taken aback. "This... Xi Xi, do you want to inherit the throne?"

Qiao Xixi looked up at Yao Xi and found that her eyes were particularly serious.

Instead of answering, she asked, "What does Aunt Yaoxi think?"

Yao Xi was taken aback again. She lowered her eyes, concealing the strange look in them. "Xi Xi, this throne is not so easy to sit on. I heard from your father that you are living happily in the tribe, so why get yourself involved in the conflicts of the Beast King City?"

Qiao Xixi took a bite of the fruit. Mmm, this sunflower fruit is really something, fragrant and sweet, a variety she had never eaten before.

Beast King City is different; its resources are much better than those of the Horde.

“But Beast King City is better than the tribe in every way, Aunt Yaoxi. You’ve never lived in the tribe, so you don’t understand.”

"Aunt Yaoxi, if I want to become the Beast King, will you support me?"

Yao Xi looked up and suddenly met Qiao Xixi's sincere gaze, and for a moment she was speechless.

"Aunt Yaoxi?"

Yao Xi frowned and shook her head. "No, I still think you're not suited for this place. Once your father beast returns, you should leave as soon as possible."

After saying that, Yaoxi stood up. "I have something to do, so I'll head back first."

As Yaoxi walked to the door, she suddenly heard Qiao Xixi's voice, "Aunt Yaoxi, actually, your life hasn't been that hard all these years, has it?"
