Chapter 118: Double Beast Body
The faint fragrance of the female body hit Si Ye, and his mind was dazed for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure, took a step back, and said in a cold tone, "Yunhua City."
"We're going the same way."
"What a coincidence?" Si Ye looked at her doubtfully again, obviously not believing it.
Sang Luo bit it dead, "It's just such a coincidence!"
"...Then I'll give you a ride."
As soon as Si Ye finished speaking, he leaped into the sky. With a long cry of a bird or beast, he stopped the clouds and transformed into a huge fire phoenix dozens of meters long. Its body was smooth and perfect, and its slender golden-red feathers shone in the sunlight. Its sharp claws of red-gold seemed to be able to tear gold and stone into pieces. It was so gorgeous that it looked like a legendary beast from the mountains and seas!
Sang Luo was in a trance, his eyes widened with excitement.
So beautiful!
Si Ye turned around again and flew slowly into the forest. Sang Luo walked up to him, reached out and touched his gorgeous gilded feathers, feeling the urge to pluck a few of them.
Si Ye's somewhat embarrassed voice came from above, "You, come up, I have never let others sit on the beast's body. This time, the cause is my fault, I owe you a favor. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to the Bi'an tribe's Si Mansion to find me."
Sang Luo came back to his senses, "Yes, aren't you from the Bi'an tribe? Why is your beast form a phoenix?"
"My father is from the Phoenix Clan, and he is the younger brother of the current Phoenix Clan Beast King of the Central Plains."
"You don't look like a mixed-blood..."
"I am a pure-blooded Phoenix, a genuine pure-blooded Phoenix." He said impatiently.
"Then you..." Sang Luo walked around him, becoming even more curious, "Didn't they say that the Phoenix Clan has no pure blood except the Beast King?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense?" The golden-red phoenix flapped its wings, and Sang Luo flew into the air and landed on the phoenix's back. Then he flapped his wings backwards and soared into the sky. Si Ye's voice was even more unbridled in the strong wind at high altitude. "I am not only a pure-blooded Phoenix, but also a pure-blooded Bi'an. My father died early, so I followed my mother's family. Naturally, I can't be considered a member of the Phoenix clan."
It was Sang Luo's first time soaring on a beast, and fearing being thrown off, she crawled to Si Ye's neck, finding a safe position to grab a few sturdy feathers. She was excited and shocked; she still knew very little about this world.
[Aze, are there still orcs with dual forms in this world? ]
In the weapon refining room, Lou Xianyue suddenly opened his clear, ice-blue eyes. Hearing her voice, his heart warmed. He quickly replied in a gentle voice, "Sure, there are such cases, but they are extremely rare... What's wrong, Sang'er? Did you encounter an orc with two forms?"
[Hmm, the East Continent is truly a paradise. This is the first time I've encountered an orc with two different forms. It feels incredible.]
[Most orcs have different fathers and mothers than the same species. The bloodlines of offspring born from different parents usually fall into four categories, including dual-form orcs.]
Lou Xianyue recalled Sang Luo's confusing life story, his eyes concealing deep thought as he patiently explained, "If the mother's bloodline is stronger than the father's, the offspring will most likely follow the mother's bloodline. If the father's bloodline is stronger than the mother's, the offspring will most likely follow the father's bloodline. Furthermore, some offspring will have the bloodlines of both parents blended together; these are hybrid orcs."
The bloodline and appearance of a hybrid orc blends the characteristics of both races, but compared to ordinary orcs, their bloodlines are less stable. While some may have exceptionally gifted individuals, others may have extremely weak offspring, resulting in a mixed bag of talent. It is precisely because of the existence of hybrid orcs that orcs have evolved a richer bloodline with each generation.
[Aside from these three common bloodline inheritance situations, the rarest one is what you call the twin beast bodies.]
This possibility is extremely rare, almost negligible. It only occurs in the offspring of a natural king beast whose parents both possess supreme bloodlines. When the royal bloodlines of the two clans are too strong, they cannot merge to form a hybrid. The offspring then inherits the full bloodline of both parents and can switch between the two beast bodies at will. Such offspring are extremely gifted and have unlimited potential, far surpassing other beastmen of the same realm... Sang'er, have you met the young marquis of the East Continent?
How do you know?
"Sang'er has very high standards. Ordinary orcs are probably not in your sight." Lou Xianyue chuckled softly, but with a hint of bitterness hidden in her voice, she said softly, "That young marquis is the only orc in the East Continent with both forms being pure-blooded, natural king beasts. It's easy to guess. Are you with him now?"
【Um.】
[Have you... mated? ]
Sang Luo almost choked on his saliva and shook his head. "No, no, he just gave me a ride. He has a bad temper, so I don't think we'll have much interaction."
There was silence for a moment, and then a sigh. Sonny, you really don't know anything about your own charm...
When she decided to stay in the East Continent and not come back, Lou Xianyue guessed the purpose of her trip.
But my heart still aches.
…
Northern Continent, Ice Breaking City.
Lou Xianyue arrived at the City Lord's Mansion and saw three little kids running out of the house. His expression softened. He bent down and picked up Zhixin, gently rubbing his silver fur with his slender hands. "Your father has done a good job raising him. He's grown a lot bigger since the last time we met."
"It's you? How come you have time to come to my house?"
Lancang followed closely.
"I've asked her to tell me about her itinerary." Lou Xianyue looked at Lan Cang, his brows etched with worry. "Don't worry, Sang'er. I was the one who took her to the Sea King's Palace last time, but I forgot to let you know. I'm really sorry... She's now back in the East Continent. Everything is fine, there's no danger. Don't worry."
"That's good." Lan Cang had guessed it long ago, but he was still worried. He sighed, "I wonder when she will come back next time."
Lou Xianyue looked towards the mansion and said, "I didn't have time to have a drink last time, but would you like to have a drink this time?"
"It is a great honor to have His Majesty the Sea King here. There will be plenty of wine. The wine from the Northern Continent is quite strong. I wonder if His Majesty the Sea King can get used to it?" Lan Cang said as he was about to hug Zhi Xin. Unexpectedly, the little guy curled up in Lou Xianyue's arms and cried a few times.
"I like the beautiful uncle so much~"
Sang Luo usually couldn't understand wolf language, but Lan Cang could. His handsome face darkened and he carried the naughty girl back.
It even waved its claws at Lou Xianyue reluctantly, which chilled the heart of its father.
I don't know who he inherited this habit of sticking to beautiful women whenever he sees one!
Lou Xianyue chuckled, "I really like this little wolf cub. Not only does he look like Sang'er, but his temperament is also cut from the same mold. It's a pity that the one I have is just a boy, not such a cute and lovable little female cub."
"If you can make Luoluo happy, she will definitely be happy to give you another child."
"How could I be so lucky? I'm afraid there's no chance." Lou Xianyue smiled sadly, "Sang'er must have a new male partner. Help me... prepare some more bars."
Lan Cang was slightly startled when he heard this, and his jokes suddenly turned bitter. He said nothing and quietly went to the warehouse to move a few jars of liquor. The two sad people drank a lot, and neither of them said a word in the middle.
She doesn't dwell on the past.
You'll get used to it.
Lou Xianyue wasn't a big drinker, but he still drank a jar and a half. He gently supported his forehead with one of his slender jade-like hands, his cheeks flushed red. "I... I knew I would become an old friend, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon..."
He thought she would give him more time and opportunities, but she didn't, and left in a very cool way.
In this world, who can truly enter Sonny's heart?
Lou Xianyue drank the remaining wine in the cup in one gulp.
