Chapter 200: Watching the Sun Rise and Moon Set, Year After Year (Grand Finale)

After tidying up a bit, Sheng Ran stood up surrounded by the beast husbands.

Yun Ling had already prepared a soft animal skin cloak and carefully fastened the collar for her.

Pei Xiao walked on the outermost side, silently blocking off the curious gazes along the way.

Zhu Jiuyin was still holding onto the corner of her clothes, as if afraid of getting lost.

When they arrived at the council hall, the Beast King saw her come in and immediately stood up and left his seat.

Her eyes were filled with relief: "Sheng Ran, it is a blessing for the world that you can wake up."

As soon as he finished speaking, the servant brought the brocade box and the Beast King opened it himself.

Inside lay a white jade pendant, and a faint floral fragrance lingered around it.

"This is the Hundred Flowers Pendant. It can nourish your Hundred Flowers Power. It is also a token of gratitude for suppressing the rebellion and protecting the people."

He continued, "Today I pardon your previous exile and reinstate you as the Holy Female of the Beast World. If you wish to remain in Central City, I will grant you the Holy Female's residence and confer titles of nobility upon each of your six beast husbands. Ling Rui has been instrumental in suppressing the rebellion, while Yuan Ziyun has failed in his duties. Therefore, Ling Rui will take over the position of captain of the guard team, and the cat tribe will be able to be looked after in the future."

The palace was filled with rewards, but Sheng Ran did not accept them immediately.

He turned to look at the beast husbands behind him.

Tu Shanyi came over first and said, "My wife, if you want to stay, then stay. If you want to leave, then leave. I will follow you."

Ling Rui also nodded: "It doesn't matter to me whether I am the captain or not, as long as I can be with my wife."

The remaining few people also echoed, their eyes full of the determination to "listen to their wives".

Sheng Ran then turned to the Beast King and knelt in salute.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. However, after all I've been through, I now simply wish to live a peaceful life with my fellow beastmen. The beast world is now at peace, and I have a clear conscience, so I will not occupy the position of Saint Female."

Seeing that she had made up her mind, the Beast King no longer forced her.

He only sighed and said, "Well, it's rare that you have such a clear mind. If you need me in the future, you can always come back to Central City to find me."

After leaving the Council Hall, Sheng Ran rested in the central city, settled the business of Shangshifang, and then left with the beast husbands.

They searched everywhere and finally chose a valley overlooking the sea.

There is a warm breeze here all year round and the sound of waves is gentle. It is very close to Huaijun's hometown, so he can go back often.

What’s even more surprising is that the power of flowers in her body gradually permeated the entire valley.

Soon, the valley floor was filled with colorful flowers that never faded from spring to winter.

As time went by, this valley became the "Peach Blossom Spring" that everyone in the animal world envied.

In the early morning, Tu Shanyi would pick dewy flowers and place them on Sheng Ran's bedside.

Huaijun carried her fishing net to the beach and always caught fat fish, which she would bring back to make fish soup for herself.

Pei Xiaoxing sat at the stone table and brewed tea. The fragrance of tea mixed with the scent of flowers filled the yard.

Yun Ling spread her phoenix wings and circled over the valley with Sheng Ran, watching the sky full of rosy clouds at sunrise.

Zhu Jiuyin would pick up colorful shells, clumsily string them into bracelets, and secretly give them to her.

Ling Rui likes to practice at the entrance of the valley and not let outsiders disturb this peace.

In the evening.

Sheng Ran leaned on the animal skin cushion and looked at the animal husbands sitting together.

Some were wiping their weapons, some were sorting herbs, and some were still arguing about who had picked the more beautiful flowers for her during the day.

She smiled and handed over a piece of roasted beast meat, which fell into Ling Rui's hands, causing Zhu Jiuyin to come over and act coquettishly: "Wife, I want one too!"

The sea breeze blew gently, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers and laughter. Sheng Ran looked at the person in front of her, feeling at ease.

She suddenly recalled a sentence that the system had left behind before leaving.

Situ Yu and Sheng Jieyue are dead, and they are no longer the protagonists of this world.

"Then who is the protagonist now?" Sheng Ran asked in confusion.

"It's you, the beast husband beside you, the Beast King, and any ordinary civilian."

"Host, from now on, everyone is the unique protagonist in their own world."

Yes, in everyone's perspective, they are the protagonists.

All have wonderful lives and stories.

But for Sheng Ran, the best outcome is never to be in a high position.

But there is a group of people who love you, who accompany you to guard the small courtyard, watch the sunrise and moonset, and spend the years together.
