Chapter 48 My Destined One

After breakfast, they followed the flow of people to the Zodiac Statue Square.

Si Shuo sat on the snow leopard that Zhi Le had transformed into, hugging his neck, and whispered to him, "Zhi Le, if I were chosen by the Beast God to become the Holy Queen, what kind of superpower should I wish for?"

Zhi Le's grey-blue eyes sparkled with a smile, regardless of how powerful the beast husbands she had recently taken in were.

In her heart, he was always different.

She only talks about these kinds of topics with herself!

Moreover, she only truly took in her second beastly husband last night, with his tacit approval and blessing.

How many females would treat their mates to this extent?

In an instant, the last trace of unease in Zhile's heart vanished, and his determination to become stronger became even stronger.

He thought about it seriously and analyzed it with her: "Little kitten, the Holy Female's superpowers are all quite special."

Females are physically weak, unlike males. After gaining superpowers, they gradually increase their combat strength by fighting wild beasts every day.

This is reality, so the Holy Maidens mostly avoid combat-related abilities and instead choose support abilities such as spatial manipulation, healing, invisibility, teleportation, spot-based teleportation, or summoning partners.

Si Shuo tilted his head, a smile in his eyes. Did he now possess three superpowers at the same time: space, healing, and wood-based abilities?

She whispered, "Should I summon my partner? Or teleport at the right moment?"

"Summon your partner. We can't guarantee we'll always be by your side, but if someone takes advantage of the situation, you can always summon us to your side."

Sometimes, strength can overcome all means!

What Zhile didn't say was that if she teleported at the right moment and was picked up by a low-ranking or vicious male, it would be like going from one wolf's den to another tiger's lair.

Si Shuo chuckled and rubbed his head against Zhi Le's head, saying softly, "Okay, I'll listen to Zhi Le."

"Little kitty, don't overthink it. Whether you are a holy female or not, you are a female we must protect, and that will never change."

Si Shuo hummed in agreement, then couldn't help but rub against him, "I know."

When she first met Zhile, she had just been reborn and her body was visibly weak. The nearby tribes all knew that she was a burden.

Without Zhile, even with the system, she would find it difficult to avoid heading to the female cave without any skills or beast coins.

Upon arriving at the square, one could already see a long line of females, accompanied by their male companions.

"Si Shuo, come here!" Several females waved to them; they were from the Fengchuan tribe.

Si Shuo chuckled and jogged forward, his face showing some unease about cutting in line. However, everyone was a familiar female who helped him stand in line.

"Nongxiu, Songting...you're here so early!" She chuckled and took out the fries and chips that Xuchi had made for her from her pocket, sharing them with everyone.

The females laughed and didn't stand on ceremony; each took some and happily munched on them.

Without them asking, Si Shuo explained how to make these snacks.

"Si Shuo, how are you so clever? You can make so many different dishes out of a single egg! We'll bring you some more later," Nong Xiu couldn't help but praise.

Si Shuo chuckled and said, "French fries and potato chips are delicious. You can turn the earthworms into fries and potato chips and sell them. You'll definitely earn more crystals." The females' eyes sparkled as they nodded in agreement. "We'll earn crystals and buy Si Shuo beautiful furs and beaded necklaces!"

Their so-called "selling" refers to selling to stall owners or official purchasing points, not to individuals setting up stalls.

This price is less than half the amount of crystals tourists would spend at the stalls, but even so, the beastmen who came to Nanye City carrying many local specialties were quite satisfied.

Si Shuo suddenly remembered his thought from yesterday.

She had a recipe for firing ceramic pots provided by the system, which happened to be made using the high temperature generated by burning coconut shells.

There aren't many pottery jars in Nanye City; each market only has two or three shops, and they're not very big. The prices are outrageously high, so only powerful orcs with plenty of crystals would buy them.

This shows that Nanye City did not master the art of pottery making and still relied on supplies from the Central Continent!

I wonder how many crystals she can exchange for this pottery jar firing recipe?

The high priest of Nanye City led two groups of people to the platform in the middle of the square. After leading everyone to bow repeatedly to the statue of the beast god, he allowed the females to go to the statue in groups of ten to receive blessings.

The statue of the beast god was enormous, connected to the plaza below, without a trace of carving, as if it had been naturally eroded little by little by the damp sea breeze.

Like Xia Hualong whom Si Shuo met in modern times, it combines many animal elements.

He had a pair of deer antlers on his head, his body was covered with fine snake scales, and he had rabbit eyes, a crocodile mouth, eagle claws, tiger paws, and a fish tail. There was not a trace of haze above his head, but he had the power of thunder around him, and his aura was overwhelming!

Even in stormy weather, the Beast God statue remained completely dry.

The high priest held a crimson scepter, chanting incantations, and sprinkled holy water on the foreheads of each of the females.

As the holy water entered the female's forehead, it was enveloped in a faint golden light.

The females of the Toyokawa tribe took turns queuing after arriving in Nanye City. Their positions were relatively close to the front, and the blessing procession proceeded quickly; after five rounds, it was their turn.

The males led the females up onto the high platform in the square.

Gong You stepped forward and picked Si Shuo up in his arms. Seeing the little female clutching his clothes in slight panic, he couldn't help but lower his head and peck her. "Little darling, you need to start getting used to my presence."

Si Shuo discovered that the males had different nicknames for her, except for the clueless Xu Chi!

The nickname rolled around in their mouths, making her heart tremble as if it were whispering in her ear, carrying endless affection.

She pursed her lips, nuzzled her head against his chest, and softly hummed in agreement.

Gong You let out a soft hiss, and that delicate, trusting sound was really intoxicating, making him feel even more aroused than when he had won so many games.

He led her onto the platform, patted her head, and said, "Go on, I'll stay here and watch over you."

Si Shuo smiled and nodded, then walked with the other females to the statue of the Beast God to receive blessings.

She had watched it several times from below the stage. Even though she had asked the system, she still clenched her fists and held her breath nervously when the high priest sprinkled holy water on her.

The cool holy water fell on her face, and suddenly she radiated a holy light. Strands of white, lustrous threads wrapped around her, gradually obscuring everyone's view.

Si Shuo's vision suddenly opened up, revealing a vibrant green world teeming with life. The Beast God sat atop a cloud in the sky, his gaze gentle as he looked down at her: "Little female, you are my destined one. I bestow my blessing upon you, wishing you peace and joy from now on, that every danger will hold a glimmer of hope, and that sincerity will move even the most obstinate hearts!"
