When the Beast King reached the hot spring behind the mountain, he saw that the pool of water, which should have been clear, was now stained red.

A huge azure dragon was coiled inside, motionless. When the huge dragon's head saw him arrive, it merely blinked and did not speak.

This is the first time I've ever seen the Beast King suffer such a serious injury!

He asked with concern, "Where are you hurt?"

Long Yin moved his eyes and slowly said, "Father, I'm fine. It's just that... it's just that my son was taken away by them."

"It's my fault for being useless; I couldn't take it back."

As he spoke, his eyes welled up with tears, and a single dragon tear fell into the hot spring and disappeared.

Although it wasn't his child, it was still a child he had raised with all his heart and soul, and it was even better than his own child!

Seeing this, he knew that Long Yin had done his best and must have encountered a powerful enemy, otherwise he wouldn't have been so badly injured!

"The other one is already with Lord Beast God, so everything will be fine!"

This news was good news for Long Yin; at least they hadn't come away empty-handed.

"Is that really the Great Shaman's child?"

The Beast King nodded: "That's right."

At this point, he was very curious: how could Long Yin not know which partners You Ran had?

"you do not know?"

Long Yin shifted his body: "All I know is that her first beast husband is dead. He was a peacock beastman, and I heard he was burned to death in a fire."

Upon hearing this, the Beast King immediately realized something!

His eyes instantly lit up with golden light: "That's it!"

"The Great Shaman has been back for less than a year. Although outsiders may not know the situation, you and I know it very well!"

"Before this, the Great Shaman's whereabouts were unknown. It is likely that he did not receive proper incubation at birth and entered a state of self-protection."

"The Phoenix Clan, if it wants to break free from this state, can only undergo Nirvana, enduring pain that ordinary people cannot bear, in order to return to its former glory!"

"It seems that the leisurely First Beast Master is very likely the Great Shaman!"

Upon hearing his father mention this, Long Yin realized something and immediately perked up.

When the Phoenix Clan enters a self-protection state, it will only transform into a bird, and You Ran's first beast husband happens to be a peacock!

Moreover, the power of bloodline is definitely not wrong.

Therefore, the High Priestess was her first companion!

But why didn't the Great Shaman recognize You Ran? He even bumped into her, causing You Ran to have a premature birth!

Or is it that he wants to abandon You Ran now that he has regained his identity as a member of the Phoenix Clan?

The Beast King saw that he was not speaking and must have been feeling rather upset.

After all, You Ran had so many partners, but before, only he had a high status. Now that someone with a higher status has come, wouldn't he be overshadowed?

It's normal to feel uncomfortable.

He comforted her, saying, "Don't think too much about it, Lord Beast God. He has already sent the Great Witch to the front lines."

Upon hearing this news, Long Yin became even more convinced of what he had in mind!

Sure enough, he's an ungrateful wretch!

They actually ran away when You Ran needed care the most!

The cub that You Ran risked her life to give birth to for him didn't even bother to incubate for a single day before running off to the front lines.

It seems he's intentionally avoiding You Ran.

Thinking about this, he felt sorry for You Ran, that she had to have children for such a male.

It immediately tried to move its body to get out, but as soon as the wound surfaced, it started bleeding profusely and had to be forced back into the water.

At that moment, a green light with golden specks descended from the sky and landed on him.

He looked up at the sky, but there was nothing there. However, he knew that this was the work of the Beast God.

Although he disliked the Great Shaman, the Beast God was the Beast God and the two should not be confused.

"Thank you, Lord Beast God!"

The Beast King was so happy to see this that he couldn't stop smiling.

He thought the Beast God was incubating eggs and had no time to pay attention to this.

"Thank you very much, Lord Beast God!"

"I only helped him stop the bleeding and clear most of the demonic energy from his body. As for the rest, it depends on his own fate."

A melodious, gentle voice drifted from the sky.

Long Yin leaped into the air, and a blue dragon circled once. The wound stopped bleeding, but it would take some time to fully heal.

After all, it's infected with demonic energy, and it's impossible to cure it in a short time.

As soon as his condition improved, he couldn't wait to go home.

As soon as I entered, a wave of warmth hit me, and seeing her lying peacefully on the bed, my worries instantly vanished.

All the longing he had carried along the way suddenly erupted at this moment. He rushed forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and leaned down to hug the sleeping You Ran tightly.

"You Ran, I miss you so much~"

Mu Youran, who was sleeping, was startled awake. When she opened her eyes, she saw a familiar face.

Instantly wide awake, she sat bolt upright, excitedly exclaiming, "Long Yin, you're back! Where's Zai Zai?"

Upon hearing this, Long Yin's originally fair and handsome face showed a hint of guilt.

But this is something I have to face sooner or later. I can't just hide away and avoid seeing her just because I failed.

She lowered her head sadly: "My baby, my baby has been taken away by them."

Upon hearing this devastating news, Mu Youran felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her mind going completely blank.

Ah~

A sharp, piercing, and sorrowful cry instantly echoed throughout the entire palace.

Long Yin knew she was upset because that was the baby she had raised with so much effort.

He wanted to comfort her and tell her not to be too sad, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Even he was very sad, and to say he wasn't sad would have been somewhat sarcastic.

He could only hold her tightly, his chin gently rubbing against her trembling shoulders.
