Sheng Xia, having overheard Lan Yingying's unfinished words, was happy for the chief when suddenly a dark shadow flashed before her.
With a loud thud, Shishan knelt before Shengxia, his eyes resolute and his face solemn as he spoke.
"Medical Doctor Xia, thank you! I know you are the messenger of the Beast God, and you have helped the tribe so much over the years..."
"Chief, please get up and speak." Sheng Xia's eyes widened, and she quickly jumped to the side, avoiding his kneeling.
"If you don't want to reveal your identity, I will help you keep it hidden until you no longer need to!" Old Man Shishan said, tears streaming down his face.
Shengxia dodged away the moment she realized what was happening. She looked helplessly at the serious-looking chief and wanted Lan Yingying to persuade him.
"You... Chief, please help him up."
Unexpectedly, when she turned her gaze, she met Lan Yingying's grateful eyes. Seeing her knees twitching, Sheng Xia felt like crying.
She'd never seen anything like it before!
And what, a messenger of a beast god?!
Did her previous excuse fail to fool the beast?
Sheng Xia thought she could use the awakening of her superpowers as an excuse to cover up her differences.
Surprisingly, nothing happened!
A mix of fear and dread gripped me in the sweltering summer heat...
Having grown up in a peaceful environment, the most dangerous things I heard about in the summer were thieves, human traffickers, and organ harvesting...
She's not a delicate flower in a greenhouse; she's very safety-conscious.
But in the beast world, her sense of crisis was far from deep enough. Her eyes flickered as she looked at the chieftain kneeling upright on the ground.
Sheng Xia lowered her almond-shaped eyes slightly and said calmly, "Well, get up first. Not many beastmen know that I am the messenger of the Beast God, right?"
For now, we can only accept it and then think of a foolproof plan. If all else fails... the identity of the Beast God's Messenger is also an option.
However, once she accepted this identity, she could no longer maintain a low profile...
The chief, beaming, got up. Xia Xia had admitted it to him! Xia Xia considered him her own beast! So touching!
He stood solemnly three steps in front of Sheng Xia.
"Cat Ning should know that he's not a gossipy beast and wouldn't talk nonsense. The other beasts simply didn't think much of it, and the rest are just the males in your household..."
Iron White Sheep, Cloud Fox Snow, and Wolf King, who were inside the house, had surrounded the place the moment the chieftain mentioned the Beast God's Messenger.
They watched the detached villa warily, fearing that a beast might suddenly appear and overhear something it shouldn't, which could be detrimental to Sheng Xia.
Wolf King sat on the rooftop, his gentle eyes turning sharp as he cast his gaze into the distance, warily assessing the situation.
Occasionally, when her gaze shifts to the height of summer, it softens, becoming tender and full of doting affection.
Shengxia was unaware of all this. Her heart skipped a beat, and suddenly her hair stood on end, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
She bit her lower lip, forcing herself to calm down. Yes, Wolf King and the others should have noticed something was wrong.
Before the height of summer could even process it, Lion Mountain dropped another bombshell.
"There are two males from another tribe locked up in my woodshed. They say they're from the North Sea and are looking for our Yafatu witch doctor. Xiaxia, would you like to go see them?"
Shengxia looked up in surprise, listened carefully to the chief's explanation of the whole story, and nodded without much hesitation.
"Okay, I'll go take a look after I've had lunch."
For some reason, she had a strong premonition that she had to go see those two evil beasts.
"Okay, Xiaxia, I'll go home first. You get some rest. This afternoon, I... I'll have Maoning take you."
He's busy this afternoon; he needs to decorate the rooftop nicely so Yingying won't be disappointed.
"Okay." Sheng Xia watched the chief carry Lan Yingying away and smiled knowingly.
They will get what they want.
She immediately noticed upon taking Lan Yingying's pulse that Lan Yingying was ovulating and her follicles had just matured.
Everything is ready except for the east wind.
Within safe limits, she increased the dosage of the spiritual spring water for Lan Yingying, making it possible for her to have five or six babies at once...
Looking at the empty courtyard, Sheng Xia breathed a sigh of relief. She walked quickly into the living room, feeling guilty, and found that there wasn't a single beast in the room.
A hint of doubt flashed in her almond-shaped eyes. She was never without a beast by her side. What was wrong with her today?
"Huh? Where did they all go?"
The slightly ajar bedroom door came into view. Sheng Xia tiptoed over and peeked inside through the crack in the door.
Jiao Su, who had just finished tidying up the room, held her breath, closed her eyes, and lay flat on the bed when she heard familiar footsteps.
Seeing Jiao Su lying on the bed with her eyes closed and her face pale, Sheng Xia's heart tightened.
She walked anxiously to the bedside and looked down at her, saying, "Su Su, Su Su..."
There was no response. She sat down on the edge of the bed, placed her hand under his nose, but he wasn't breathing!
Sheng Xia's eyes flickered as she took his hand to feel his pulse, her hand trembling slightly.
No pulse!?
The mermaid's slightly cool body temperature, along with his absent pulse and breath, terrified Sheng Xia.
"Su Su! Su Su!"
Without hesitation, Sheng Xia pressed her head against his chest, feeling the strong, powerful heartbeat. She was momentarily surprised.
My heart is pounding faster and faster, and I'm filled with questions in the middle of summer.
Suddenly, cool hands embraced her tightly, and she felt the vibration of a chest in her ear, accompanied by a soft, gentle laugh.
"Xia~"
For some reason, Sheng Xia's ears felt a little numb. She realized she had been tricked. Her almond-shaped eyes were slightly annoyed. She looked up and glared at Jiao Su, about to get up.
Jiao Su pressed down with his large hand, bringing her even closer.
"Xiaxia praised my sweet talk last night, saying it over and over again. Have you forgotten?" It's so cute, I can't help but tease her.
A slightly hoarse voice, accompanied by cool breath, brushed past my ear.
A sudden flutter in my heart during the height of summer, so sweet!
Thinking of his ferocity last night and the noble and aloof Jiao Su now, it's impossible to tell that they are the same beast.
She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering: "No..."
The female's watery eyes sparkled, her eyelashes fluttered with shyness, and a faint blush rose on her fair cheeks.
Jiao Su's eyes flickered. He flipped over and pressed her down, his long blue hair falling down, lingering with a cool fragrance.
When Jiao Su pressed his face against her, Sheng Xia was drenched in sweat. She hurriedly pushed Jiao Su away, got off the bed, and opened the window.
A breeze blew in, dispelling the ambiguous atmosphere. Outside the window was a courtyard brimming with the scent of nature, a forest-like world straight out of a fairy tale.
Taking a deep breath in the sweltering summer heat, I felt refreshed and invigorated.
Suddenly, a beautiful light blue single-petaled flower appeared in front of her. Her almond-shaped eyes lit up, and she took the flower and looked ahead.
Behind a tree, a green tree peeked out with a bright smile before quickly disappearing into the flower bushes.
In the height of summer, she held the flowers with a beaming smile, while with her other hand she gently rubbed her slightly sore stomach.
Jiao Su's golden eyes curved slightly, a faint smile passing through them, and he strode over.
Seeing her adorable appearance, I was about to hug her from behind when I noticed her little movements. I raised my large hand and held her small hand, our fingers intertwined.
"Xia, let's go eat."
Sheng Xia smiled sweetly, tilted her head back and hummed in agreement, then slipped the hand holding the flowers through his arm and affectionately hugged his arm.
"Let's go eat!"
After dinner, let's go see the two beasts the chief mentioned.
