Shen Miao wanted to go home to see how things were at home after she had been away for so long.

She searched for a long time but couldn't find the way. In her anxiety, she opened her eyes. Three faces were staring intently at her from above. Seeing that she had opened her eyes, they all breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, you're awake."

Of these three faces, one was completely blackened, as if it had been smeared with soot from the bottom of a pot.

Shen Miao stared at it for a while before recognizing it: "Snow Wolf?"

The snow wolf's face was now only marked by two black pupils that moved slightly, revealing the location of its eyes. It replied, "Shen Miao, you scared me to death."

"I'm fine." Shen Miao smiled and sat up, supporting herself with her hands. She was just a little nostalgic for the dream she hadn't finished. Actually, she really wanted to go home and take a look.

Shen Miao looked at the snow wolf: "How are you?"

She remembered how miserable the snow wolf looked before he lost consciousness. Of course, he wasn't much better off now, but he was still alive. Before, it seemed like he had become a roasted snow wolf.

"I'm fine. Don't do anything foolish like that again. I don't want to risk your life to save people," Snow Wolf said seriously, his voice a little hoarse and weak, indicating that he was indeed injured.

Qingchen and Jiuying both said, "That's right, Shenmiao, when you save people, you should act within your capabilities. Think about your back; you still have children to take care of. You are not alone."

Shen Miao was completely dejected after being scolded. The three orcs seemed to have been holding back for a long time and finally got the chance to scold her mercilessly.

Finally, Shen Miao weakly begged for mercy, and the three beastmen released her.

Shen Miao rested at home for a few days and took the medicine prescribed by Lin Shousheng. Her health gradually improved, but the five fox cubs at home still wouldn't let her go out, saying that if she went out, they would follow her.

Shen Miao didn't want to go outside, especially with several people following her, so she had no choice but to agree to rest at home for two more days.

That day, Shen Miao was half asleep and half awake when she felt something was wrong. She kicked her foot hard and then woke up. The next second, she felt the whole room shaking.

What happened? Was it an earthquake?

Shen Miao sat up abruptly, about to rush out, but the children pushed the door open first. Several children ran to the bedside and comforted Shen Miao: "Mommy, don't be afraid. Daddy and Uncle Jiuying are outside. They will definitely be able to drive away the bad guys."

What bad guy? Shen Miao was a little confused, but after the kids explained, she understood. It turned out that while she was being held down on the bed to rest, her room was attacked, and someone was trying to destroy her entire room.

Shen Miao was puzzled. Why hit her house instead of her? What's wrong with that?

Da Bao said, "That beast spirit knew that Mother was in the room, so it deliberately attacked the room. It wanted to get rid of the problem once and for all."

Shen Miao grasped the key point: "Beast Soul, it's Beast Soul again!"

“Yes, but don’t worry, Mom. Dad and Uncle Jiuying are already taking care of it.” Erbao patted his chest and said, “I’ll go up and help later.”

Shen Miao quickly stopped her: "Erbao, don't do anything reckless, or I'll tell your father and have him spank you."

Erbao didn't dare to ask for help anymore, even though he really wanted to.

Shen Miao walked to the window and could see the three fighting. After only a few glances, Shen Miao concluded that this beast spirit was much more powerful than the previous one.

Because it was trapped by the Soul-Trapping Array, it ultimately had almost no power to resist.

This beast soul moved between Qingchen and Jiuying without much difficulty.

Shen Miao's expression was somewhat solemn. She was afraid that the two of them couldn't win and wanted to go up to help, but she was stopped by the children: "You're not allowed to go. Daddy will say something. If Mommy goes up, she'll spank you too."

Shen Miao: ...

That little brat is really something else, he even dared to spank her. Now that I think about it, it couldn't have been Qingchen who said it, it could only have been this little brat who did it himself.

She gritted her teeth, decided not to argue with the other party, and continued to concentrate on watching the fight.

As she looked around, she noticed something was wrong.

Wait, isn't that Qingchen's signature move? How come this beast soul can use it too?

Also, why did the beast soul follow Jiuying's teleportation? How did it know that? If it knew Qingchen's moves, that would be a coincidence, but it also knew Jiuying's special ability, which is a bit abnormal.

It couldn't have learned it on the spot, could it? If it had, it would be so smart, so why was it killed?

I was immediately proven wrong when I realized that this beast soul was indeed learned on the spot; it seemed to be able to copy the opponent's abilities and moves. That's terrifying.

In other words, it appears to be one person, but it is actually the combined abilities of three people.

Qingchen and Jiuying were naturally no match for them. As soon as they used their moves, the opponent quickly learned them and then applied them back to them.

This is a classic case of me criticizing myself.

Qingchen and the others also realized something was wrong, so they stopped using new moves and only dealt with the beast spirit. But if they did that, the beast spirit would never be killed.

Moreover, Qingchen and Jiuying will be in danger.

Because beast spirits don't get tired, while human abilities and physical strength have limits. If you overexert yourself, you'll become food for the beast spirit and be devoured by it.

Shen Miao couldn't stand it anymore; she had to go out and help.

"Mother, don't go out." Da Bao stopped Shen Miao, dutifully carrying out the task Qing Chen had assigned him.

“Your father is in danger, and your mother is going to help him,” Shen Miao reasoned with him.

Da Bao was very conflicted. He didn't want to see his father and Uncle Jiu Ying get into trouble, and he also didn't want his mother to go out and fight while injured. It was so difficult. He wished he were older now.

Little Sibao looked at his conflicted older brother, then at his mother who was determined to go out and fight, puffed up his cheeks, and strode out.

It's just a beast soul, why are you all so scared? It's her delicious food!

Little Sibao waved at the beast spirit and said in a childish voice, "Come and catch me, come and catch me quickly."

"Four Treasures!" Qingchen shouted sternly.

Jiuying also flew down, trying to take Xiao Sibao away.

Little Sibao, however, was still hooking his finger at the Beast Soul, as if summoning a puppy, with an innocent and naive expression.

The beast spirit let out a maniacal laugh. It was naturally happy to have a cub delivered to its door. It would kill the cub that was neither dead nor alive, and then kill the whole family.

Thinking of this, the beast soul twisted and turned excitedly. It was just a shadow, and when that shadow twisted, it looked incredibly awkward, like a wriggling caterpillar.

The beast spirit approached Xiao Sibao, enveloping him in a dark aura. Xiao Sibao remained calm, neither dodging nor flinching. Instead, he suddenly opened his mouth, let out a soft "ah-woo," and swallowed the beast spirit whole.

She swallowed hard, making a gulping sound.
