Arthur was the first to lose his temper, his raging anger erupting and losing control. He kicked the table over, sending everything tumbling to the floor with a clatter.

Cang Jue reacted quickly, blocking the way and pulling Guo Xiaoxiao into his arms to prevent her from getting hurt. No matter how angry he was, he shouldn't take it out on a female.

"Arthur, come at me if you dare, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Guo Xiaoxiao staring at her with both eyes, she was already terrified and realized that she had indeed gone too far.

Arthur's childhood ambition was to remain unmarried, become a powerful orc, and rule the ancient continent. However, his encounter with Guo Xiaoxiao shattered this childhood vow.

He had no regrets, but he hated being treated like this by the female. Gone for a month and a half without a single word—wasn't that blatant disregard?

Losing his temper, he didn't think twice and kicked at Cang Jue. He didn't know why he was becoming increasingly irritable; he used to be very calm.

Carlos, Randy, and the others thought Arthur's behavior was too violent, and that Xiaoxiao was frightened by it.

"Azure Extinction"

Guo Xiaoxiao, clutching Cang Jue's sleeve, hid fearfully behind him. She was mentally prepared for their anger, but this was far too much; good heavens, they even kicked over the table!

Cang Jue comforted her with heartache, "Don't be afraid."

Then he glared coldly at Arthur, waiting to see what tricks he was going to pull.

Carlos's face also darkened: "Arthur, watch the occasion, tone down your imposing manner. I'm angry too, but you can't treat Xiaoxiao like this."

Mickelson stood in the middle, separating the two sides.

If you're still angry, go outside and calm down.

Arthur shoved Mickson aside, turned and left, leaving behind a parting remark.

"When I get back tonight, no one is allowed to touch her."

Arthur's mind is not clear right now; he needs to go out and sort it out.

…

Cang Jue was still destined to be surrounded and attacked by several people, but Cang Jue was not Carlos; he wouldn't just take the beating for nothing. If he couldn't win, he would just run away. Would he really suffer a loss?

Guo Xiaoxiao also bears some responsibility for the trip with Cang Jue; her attitude wasn't firm enough, causing it to drag on for so long. Cang Jue is mostly to blame, but she's partly to blame.

The places Cang Jue took her to were all incredibly fun, and she lingered there, reluctant to leave. She felt that even one more day wouldn't be too bad, and so a month and a half passed.

As time dragged on, Guo Xiaoxiao pressured Cang Jue to go home quickly, otherwise he could play for another half month.

Guo Xiaoxiao wasn't as tough as Cang Jue.

Whether it was Cang Jue or the others, they all believed that females were their possessions and there was nothing wrong with taking them out.

They all wanted to possess Guo Xiaoxiao exclusively, but there were too many of them, making it difficult to share her equally. Each of them acted independently, paying no attention to the others except for Guo Xiaoxiao's feelings.

Guo Xiaoxiao's ideal harem is one of harmonious coexistence, plenty of communication, lots of love, and no more bickering—where everyone happily works together to bring the extended family to its doom.

But things don't always go as planned; once an argument starts, it never ends, especially when it comes to feelings. To achieve a fair distribution, they won't budge an inch.

These guys are so petty that if they see Randy is thirsty and she hands her a glass of water, the other two get upset. They complain, "You give him water, why don't you give me any?"

Even better, when you're all on the rooftop admiring the moon, you say to one of the men, "Wow, that star is so beautiful!" and the others get excited. You then say to him instead of me.

They've gotten so caught up in these trivial matters that they're agonizing over them.

Guo Xiaoxiao is just an ordinary person; it's too difficult for her to be perfect. Originally, she had five husbands, each with a different personality—a veritable beast.

Now you can't even throw a tantrum or be naughty? The harem may seem wonderful, but investing requires caution.

As was her usual self, Guo Xiaoxiao would only offer a few words of advice from the sidelines, then decide to let it go and see what happened.

But recalling Lin Zhi's words, it's okay to make a fuss, but you can't overstep your boundaries; she is the mistress of this house.

What problem does hitting people solve? At worst, you can just take one or two out and have a go at it.

It's also more convenient for her; one-on-one is always better than one-on-five. That's fine too, Guo Xiaoxiao thought of another possibility: there are 12 months in a year, and if the five of them take turns taking her out for a month and a half, there won't be any arguments.

Carlos appeared calm on the surface but was inwardly fanatical. The group surrounded Cang Jue, wary of his escape.

"You've been having a blast outside with Xiaoxiao, haven't you? You're having sex with her every day, you've had your fill."

Carlos didn't even need to ask.

There was something else that infuriated him the most: the little snake had been with them all along but hadn't told him. Whose offspring was it anyway? What kind of father beast was this? It was a waste of its life to have given birth to it.

Mickelson's expression darkened further: "You've always been one step ahead of me. The Beast God Stele is all nonsense. Ignoring you? I'm the one who's been ignored! I was the one who led the way, not you!"

Randy, though cold-faced, was warm-hearted. Following the expected sequence, he had missed at least five attempts, and had actually been paired with Cang Jue for a month and a half. He really wanted to beat him to death.

Cang Jue countered calmly and casually.

"Xiaoxiao is bored staying in Beast City all day and wants to go out and play. It just so happens that I'm away. You guys couldn't stand it after only a month and a half. I'm thinking of not coming back for a year!"

"Damn it"

Mikson couldn't hold back any longer. He grabbed the flesh on Cang Jue's shoulder and twisted it forcefully. Cang Jue, with his five-star ring strength, was completely unafraid that Mikson could easily escape.

After calming himself down, Carlos gradually realized he needed to prevent such a thing from happening again.

Guo Xiaoxiao sat obediently on the mattress, watching them deal with Cang Jue. She didn't even dare to say a word in Cang Jue's defense, because her favoritism would bring even harsher punishment.

Arthur has been gone for a long time and hasn't returned to the castle. It looks like he's transformed into his beast form and gone running around like Randy.

When they had nowhere to vent their frustrations, they happened to see Randy transform into a wolf beast and run in circles around the beast city.

After a few people learned it, running a few laps with it helped them calm down.

"You can't mate with Xiaoxiao before winter, so you need to give up your spot."

This is outrageous! Summer hasn't even arrived yet, and we're already talking about winter? Cang will never agree to that; he's not stupid.

"You underestimate me because of my numbers. I'm not alone; I also have the Sishui tribe. I'm not afraid to fight you."

"Oh no! This whole 'staying at the hospital' thing has turned into a tribal war!" Guo Xiaoxiao mustered her courage and whispered.

"Winter is a long way off..."

Carlos understood her subtext and looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

"Oh... never mind then, just pretend I didn't mention it."

Then, under everyone's gaze, Carlos said...

"Not this year. I'll keep a close eye on her; you won't get a chance to touch her."

Randy and Mickelson are irrelevant now; I believe Arthur is satisfied with the result.

That's going too far. Guo Xiaoxiao has absolutely no say in this matter, and she's afraid that saying too much will upset them.

By remaining silent, she appears to be an outsider who doesn't care, which is actually the case, but she does bear responsibility.

"that…"

Guo Xiaoxiao walked over and stood between them.

"I don't want you to fight because of me..."

Carlos reached out and hugged her, kissing her forehead.

"I know that not arguing is a form of punishment for him."

Guo Xiaoxiao shook her head, watching Cang Jue slightly raise his chin, looking eager. She said...

This is inappropriate.

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's decided."

Carlos embraced her, his domineering embrace leaving no room for resistance.
