Five cubs clung to her; the wicked woman was being targeted.

Suddenly, lively drumbeats rang out in the square, instantly enlivening the atmosphere.

The beastmen in the square became even more cheerful.

"The marriage ceremony is about to begin, you should go and participate."

Cheng Qiongzhao said with a smile.

"Isn't Auntie going?"

Niu Kou Shui was a little curious. Wasn't the city lord going to participate?

"I'm not going. I'll continue practicing my calligraphy. Forming a mate is something for young orcs, hahaha."

As Cheng Qiongzhao spoke, he also looked up at the outside, where it was bustling with activity.

But she just wanted to practice her calligraphy here by herself.

"Goodbye, Auntie, we're off!"

"Auntie, I'm leaving." Mo Yang waved his hand, mimicking Niu Kou Shui's gesture.

Back on the streets of Nine Heavens City, the atmosphere suddenly became intense.

The orcs on both sides took turns beating huge animal-hide drums. When their arms fell, the drums sounded deep and powerful, "thump-thump-thump," making the ground tremble slightly. Accompanied by the orcs' joyful shouts, the whole street seemed to be pulsating.

The branches of the giant trees on both sides of the road were already covered with bright red ribbons tied by the orcs. These ribbons were made by soaking softened ramie fibers in vermilion juice, then twisting and stretching them. They were soft, resilient, and bright, and when the wind blew, they fluttered all over the sky, turning the whole street into a festive red.

Strings of white feathers and golden velvet flowers hang among the red ribbons, swaying gently in the wind.

The onlookers, all orcs, were delighted. They tossed colorful flower petals and soft feathers high into the air, and pink, white, bright red, and pale yellow petals danced in the sky. The soft feathers drifted slowly down onto people's hair, shoulders, festive red ribbons, and drumheads.

The aromas of flowers, roasted meat, and herbs mingled together, accompanied by the sounds of drums, laughter, and blessings.

Red ribbons fluttered in the wind, petals and feathers swirled in the air, and the whole street was enveloped in a lively yet gentle festive atmosphere, even the air felt sweet and warm.

Wow, it's so lively!

The cows were speechless with amazement; this felt even more lively than the Spring Festival!

There were also red roses specially supplied by Jiuxiao City displayed along the roadside, which were free to take today!

Niu Kou Shui and Mo Yang held hands as they squeezed through the crowd.

Petals were still scattered on her shoulders.

A lone butterfly beastman, adorned with a red ribbon, swam through the air, scattering flower petals.

"Why is it so lively up ahead? Let's go take a look."

Niu Kou Shui pulled Mo Yang towards the most bustling area.

The crowd had formed several small circles, and Niu Kou Shui was curious about what was being performed inside.

"Over there are adult females from various tribes who came to participate in today's mating ceremony. They're showcasing their talents in order to attract strong males back to their tribes."

Mo Yang spoke loudly, as if afraid his voice would be drowned out by the drumbeats.

"That sounds like taking in a son-in-law!"

"What is a son-in-law taking in a wife?" Mo Yang asked curiously, not understanding.

"Oh, it's nothing. Let's get closer and take a look."

The first thing to ignite the entire audience was the sexy dance of the female foxes.

The cow was drooling and swallowing hard. (≖‿≖)

They were dressed in neatly tailored soft animal skins, with bright red ribbons tied to the tips of their ears and tails. Their fluffy tails were combed until they were shiny and smooth, and adorned with tiny colorful stones that shimmered with light when they moved.

As soon as the drumbeats stopped, they twirled to the rhythm, their waists so supple they seemed boneless, every twist, sway of their tails, and glances exuding a captivating charm.

Its large tail swept across the ground, scattering petals and colorful feathers everywhere. Its eyes sparkled with a cunning yet fiery light. The movements were wild and untamed, yet they possessed an innate allure.

The sizzling dance moves got the blood pumping in the hearts of the male orcs present. The cheers and whistles almost shook the forest. Many orcs stared intently at the alluring figures in the arena.

"Wow! Passionate Samba!" Niu Kou Shui stared at the feet and immediately decided to go for it.

"Mo Yang, how do you plan to recruit beastmen?"

"Let's attract the orcs first. When the time comes, the females will go up one by one in the central square of the mating ceremony, and then the male orcs who are interested will go up."

"Then the females can choose which ones they like to take with them."

"What about those who weren't chosen?" Niu Kou Shui asked.

"So I wasn't chosen~" Mo Yang shrugged. It's normal not to be chosen. I'll just focus on improving my strength.

"Mo Yang, look, all these beastmen are showing their left breasts, but why aren't the others showing?"

"The ones that are showing off are probably unmated and are demonstrating their strength to the females."

"Those of us who are already in a relationship don't need to show off!"

"I see!"

Niu Kou Shui understood perfectly; now he had seen both the beautiful woman and the pectoral muscles, but all that admiring was for nothing.

"Let's go, let's go, let's look over there."

Niu Kou Shui then led Mo Yang to squeeze into the other side of the crowd.

The art style here is completely different; it's an adorable supergroup!

The female rabbits adorn themselves with exquisite rabbit ears, the tips of which are adorned with white down and small bone beads, and they dance gracefully to a gentle rhythm.

Her dance steps were soft and light, her rabbit ears swayed gently, gentle and charming, like the softest breeze in the forest, quiet and soothing.

Niu Kou Shui noticed that the orcs watching all looked like madmen, staring silently, unwilling to look away.

Similar to Rabbit Star Moon and others, she is petite and adorable, and her cute bunny dance is so charming it's almost irresistible.

"So cute~" The cow's mouth was watering and its heart was melting!

"Not as cute as the female master!" Mo Yang said in Niu Kou Shui's ear.

The hot breath made Niu's face turn red.

"Let's stop watching and go find them to meet up."

Niu Kou Shui looked away and pulled Mo Yang toward the meeting point.

"Yes, Mistress!"
