Pampered Beast: Frail Beauty with Many Children Brings Blessings

Chapter 29 You've Blossomed!

Before long, a dozen or so orcs came running out of the tribe. They were all stunned when they saw Si Shuo's white hair, blue eyes, and otherworldly appearance.

Si Shuo is quite good-looking in modern times, and he is bound to be spotted by talent scouts when he goes out occasionally.

If her health allowed, she would also like to stand on the stage and enjoy a different kind of life.

She patted Xu Chi's shoulder, and before she could say anything, she felt the male's grip loosen.

Sliding off the back of the man with the red stubble, Si Shuo smiled and waved to them, "Hello, I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

However, I lost my partner.

I wonder if I could bother you for a few days to rest in the tribe and wait for my partner to come looking for me...

Xu Chi glanced at her, his brows furrowing slightly, a rare occurrence for him.

The tribespeople could tell from the little female's halting speech that she clearly had a physical disability, and they couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

Whether they are male beastmen who can transform into beast form and have super combat power, or female beastmen who need to protect those who cannot transform, they are all healthy. However, if they have any defects, they will most likely be inherited.

However, the living environment on the Beast World continent is harsh, and it is difficult for injured orcs to survive.

However, stuttering isn't a major problem, is it?

"Hello, little female, I am Juk, the chief of the Toyokawa tribe," the middle-aged male with a beard said with a smile. However, the feeling of being stared at by the little female's bright blue eyes made him stumble over his words.

"We would be very happy if you could stay with our tribe temporarily."

However, we don't know you very well, and letting you in is a huge risk.

But we can't let you in. It's getting late, and it's dangerous to linger in the woods.

Therefore, according to our tribe's rules, young female, you must choose two strong and brave males from our tribe to be your mates!

Five or six seconds after he finished speaking, Si Shuo finally came to his senses. Was he being pressured to get married no matter where he went?

It turns out that there are too many males on the Beast World Continent, and they are too eager to have offspring. When they see a female passing by, they directly try to sell the males in their tribes. This level of audacity left Si Shuo speechless.

Si Shuo pursed his lips, a blush creeping onto his face. His expression was a mixture of gratitude and eagerness, shyness and trepidation, guilt and anticipation.

"Chief Juk, I also want to choose a powerful beastman."

But I cannot harm the warrior. It is because I am a white-haired, blue-eyed, mutated female cat-beastman, born with hearing problems.

My tribesmen were displeased and, taking advantage of my beast husband's spring hunt, drove me away.

Moreover, my fertility is low.

"If there were a powerful male who wouldn't mind me, I wouldn't be able to..."

The males, who had just been eager to show off and transform into beast forms to display their power, were utterly disappointed.

Orcs don't understand subtlety; they appreciate and like beautiful females, but what they want most is to survive and reproduce.

Females are already difficult to care for, and if they add a weak female that is mutated, short-lived, and deaf, then they must be tired of living!

Moreover, the all-knowing witch doctor sighed and nodded, "This female is indeed a mutated cat-beastman, with white hair, blue eyes, and deafness."

If she is lucky enough to give birth to a female, she might be protected by one or two males, just like her; but if she gives birth to a male and he goes out hunting, he might never come back…”

Si Shuo lowered his head in shame, hiding behind Xu Chi, but still looked at Ju Ke with some expectation: "Chief Ju Ke, I know I'm not good enough."

Can I still wait for my partner to come looking for me?

Juke looked at the three animal markings on Xuchi's neck, exchanged a glance with the shaman, and said with a smile, "Well, it's just that the males in our tribe aren't lucky enough to have them."

They wouldn't make things difficult for the weak female, since the birth of the weak female was also the will of the Beast God.

Si Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and quickly thanked them, then pulled Xu Chi into the tribe. The two of them were given a small, drafty hut. Ju Ke also sent a little orc to give them two animal hides, a piece of meat, and even two level-two crystals, and invited them to join the bonfire feast.

Si Shuo was touched by their enthusiasm and whispered to Xu Chi, "I feel a little guilty, as if I came here for something they want."

We're the ones living here, seeking their protection, and yet they're the ones giving us things.

Xu Chi tilted his head. "Tomorrow, I'll take you hunting."

Si Shuo rested his chin on his hand as he watched him gather some weeds to plug up the drafty spots, and then spread animal hides on the bed. "Does Xu Chi mean to you that you're going hunting to repay the Fengchuan tribe's favor?"

Xu Chi nodded.

Si Shuo's smile froze for a moment, a bad feeling creeping over him. He asked tremblingly, "Xu Chi, are you going to repay a favor for me? Why?"

Xu Chi's eyes were fixed on her.

The sun had already set, leaving only a pale purple sky. Several bonfires were lit in the tribe, and the orcs were busy processing and roasting the wild animals they had hunted.

Everything was clearly imprinted in his brown eyes, and there was also a picture of her, like a calm, still lake, without a ripple.

"You've blossomed!"

Si Shuo waited for a long time, having considered several answers in his mind, but then he said this: "Hmm?"

"My father said that I am born with shallow romantic feelings and will not be able to find a female unless a female blooms!" Xu Chi said with great seriousness.

Si Shuo...

This was clearly Suchi's father expressing his disappointment and saying that someone with his personality would have a hard time finding a female, but Suchi took that as gospel.

"Where did I bloom?" Si Shuo gritted his teeth. "I'm female, not a plant. I can't bloom!"

Xu Chi reached out and opened it, revealing a wildflower that he had squeezed so tightly it was no longer recognizable.

Si Shuo thought it looked familiar. Wasn't this one of the flowers and plants she used to disguise the escape basket when she practiced?

"I found you, and I will protect you," Xu Chi said solemnly again.

Si Shuo's lips twitched, and she tried to reason with him: "I'm a female, not some random crystal or animal hide that someone might discard on the street. It's not like whoever picks it up owns it!"

Xu Chi looked at her and said, "A female cannot survive alone. The Beast God decrees that whoever finds a lone female belongs to her."

As expected, there's no such thing as a free lunch. So, Xu Chi had been taking care of her as his female all along?

Si Shuo was in the wrong; he had indeed received protection and care from him.

She held out her wrist to show him the animal mark: "This is my beast husband's. He's very fierce and doesn't let me find just any beast husband."

Xu Chi nodded, "Then I'll fight him until he agrees!"

Is it really that brutal?

"Zhile is a level four orc, and he'll soon be level five. You can't beat him. Of course, you're not allowed to use Whirlwind on him!" She didn't want a hairless, bald leopard; it was too much of an eyesore.

Xu Chi stepped forward, almost touching her nose to hers, the warm scent of herbs enveloping her. "I'm very capable, at least more capable than you imagine, no less capable than Zhile."
