Chapter 325 Beast World 9

The fourth prince, who had been on tenterhooks, was somewhat relieved to see that his son hadn't attacked his mother. But when he thought about how his son had attacked him without hesitation, he became annoyed. "That wretched son of mine," he thought, "he has no fatherly affection whatsoever. I've raised him for nothing."

Father-son relationship? Oh no, oh no, he forgot to inform his father!

He said he felt like he had forgotten something!

He quickly summoned his attendants to report the news to the palace.

When he returned, his little phoenix daughter had already chipped off a piece of eggshell under her tiny claws. The little creature, with its golden-red feathers, yawned, spread its wings, flew to its mother's side, lay down on Ning Yan's arm, curled up in a ball, and fell asleep.

Everyone: ...Goodness, these two little brats only recognize their mother!

No one else would notice even a glance from them.

"Yanyan, do you want to move the baby to your own bed? You might not get enough rest if you do that."

Mrs. Iman was afraid of disturbing the two children's sleep, so she kept her voice very low.

Ning Yan quickly shook her head, "It's okay, I'll just rest like this."

Mainly, she was afraid that others would touch the two little ones and hurt them.

Newborns can't control their strength yet, so it's best for others to keep their distance.

Mrs. Iman then gestured for everyone to leave. Although they hadn't had enough of looking at the two little ones, the new mother needed to rest, so they obediently went out.

In the palace, the Beast King was overjoyed upon receiving the news and had a pile of gifts prepared and sent to the door. The next morning, he personally visited Duke Taya's mansion.

Because they had given prior notice, everyone in the Duke's mansion greeted the Beast King together in the front hall.

"No need to be polite. I've come to visit my future daughter-in-law and grandson today, Duke Ning. Please lead the way."

The family's faces immediately darkened. The Beast King wanted the Fourth Prince to marry their daughter. Really, why didn't he come to propose marriage to them earlier?

Hmph, he just wants his daughter because she's fertile!

But he couldn't refute it, and the frustration he felt was indescribable.

"Your Majesty, this way please."

A quarter of an hour later, the Beast King finally held his beloved grandson, a grandson of the same lineage as him, born with cultivation, and an extremely rare dark-type grandson.

Of course, he was also attacked by the little Qilin, but its strength was undeniable, and it easily neutralized the attack.

"He's so handsome! Our royal family finally has an heir!"

Fourth Prince: ...So your grandson is the heir, but I'm not!

The little Qilin yawned in its grandfather's arms, its little paws finding a comfortable spot on its grandfather's collar before it closed its eyes and went back to sleep.

After he fell asleep, the Beast King placed the little Qilin on the bed and then picked up the little phoenix from another small bed.

This little guy didn't have a chance to unleash his divine power yesterday, but today he didn't hold back. As soon as he opened his mouth, a burst of flame shot out, heading straight for the Beast King's dark green hair.

Beast King: Goodness, why didn't Fourth Brother mention yesterday that his granddaughter is also so extraordinary?

He reached out and blocked it, and the flames disappeared right in front of his palm.

Little Phoenix: ...Okay, this grandfather is quite capable, so I'll give him some face and let him hug me.

Beast King: ...My dear grandson, what do you mean by that condescending look in your eyes?

“Ning Yan, you and Lao Si have already had two children, why don’t you find some time to hold the wedding?”

Fourth Prince: ...His father is really helpful! Knowing his son was suffering, he came to help him with his marriage!

Ning Yan: "But I don't plan to marry the Fourth Prince. If it really doesn't work out, I don't mind if he marries into the family."

Cough, the Beast King coughed, choking. How could his crown prince be allowed to marry into another family?

"Are you sure you don't want to marry the fourth prince? Then I'll have to find him a concubine!"

The fourth prince was getting anxious. Why should he take a concubine? He already has a child. Isn't this one woman enough?

Ning Yan looked puzzled: "Isn't this something that was bound to happen sooner or later? Why did you have to tell me specifically?"

The Fourth Prince could hardly believe it; did she really not care about him at all?

The Beast King realized he had asked a foolish question, so he quickly changed the subject, "The offspring of my Qilin clan are to be brought back to the clan's territory to receive the inheritance. Are you willing to be separated from your two children?"

Good grief, it seems that if the soft approach doesn't work, they'll have to resort to the hard one!

"What's there to be reluctant about? Do you think your own grandfather and biological father would mistreat two children?"

After receiving the inheritance, won't they have to come back? Do you think they can disown their own mother?

The Beast King and the Fourth Prince both fell silent.

What's wrong with this female? Why doesn't she care about things that other females care about?

Could it be related to her being from the peacock clan, inherently having weak family ties?

In the end, the Beast King, having failed to achieve his goal, returned home disappointed with his son.

The little ones had just been born, and the Beast King promised them that they could stay in Taya Prefecture for another five days before he would take them away.

Ning Yan was overjoyed. These two little ones were so clingy. They would look for their mother as soon as they opened their eyes, and even after they had eaten and drunk their fill, they would still look for their mother. They even wanted to sleep next to her, which made her afraid to even turn over, for fear of rolling over on them.

If it weren't for her adoptive parents' reluctance to part with these two, she would have let the Beast King take them away today.

After everyone had left, the three brothers quietly circled back. "Little sister, are you really not going to marry the Fourth Prince?"

Ning Yan nodded, "I won't marry."

"Then you should take all three of us in. The beast mother and beast father have both agreed. Or is it that you don't like the three of us brothers?"

Ning Yan: ...This, even though it's a beast world, is just too amazing!

"Big brother, don't joke around. I've been waiting for you guys to bring me a sister-in-law."

This is a direct rejection.

The three brothers, unusually, didn't continue the topic, glanced at the two children, and left.

In the eldest brother's room.

"Big brother, we're not just going to give up like this, are we?"

Kaino: "My sister is in her postpartum period now, let's talk about it after she's finished."

It's no use saying anything now. He could tell that his sister didn't dislike them; she just felt awkward because they were her brothers.

A few days later, the two little ones were indeed taken away by the Beast King, and the Fourth Prince visited the mansion less often because he had to look after the two children.

After Ning Yan finished her postpartum confinement, Kaino began to take action.

After having dinner with the family, Kaino offered to take Ning Yan back to her room. Ning Yan didn't think much of it; after all, the three brothers had always done this before.

But this time, Keno had other plans. He didn't leave Ning Yan's courtyard once he arrived.

"Brother, I need to rest now, you can go back."

Kaino: "Big brother is thirsty, little sister, please treat your brother to a cup of tea."

Ning Yan smiled and said, "Big brother is just thinking about the good tea I have here."

Last time she went to the Marquis of Yulis's mansion, she took a lot of good things from their storeroom, including the new tea that was only available to the Yulis family. After returning home, she distributed it to her family members.

Surprisingly, they quite liked it.

She asked Lisa to make some for her older brother, and then sat down and drank a cup herself.
