Chapter 86: Points Reward

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Points Reward

"Don’t be nervous. It really doesn’t hurt."

Bai Wanwan even gave him a relaxed smile.

But Zhu Xiu didn’t believe her at all. He’d heard that giving birth was very dangerous for females. Some couldn’t deliver, and it would cost the Mother her life.

The scene appeared uncontrollably in his mind, and he realized he couldn’t bear it.

"Bai Wanwan, you have to hold on and give birth to the cubs! Nothing can happen to you!"

His anguished expression left Bai Wanwan torn between laughter and tears.

’I already smiled for him, why doesn’t he believe me?’

If any other Beastmen were around, they would have seen Bai Wanwan’s face, rosy and full of color, while Zhu Xiu’s was pale with worry.

"Alright, alright, I promise you. I’ll definitely give birth to the cubs safely. I won’t leave them without a Mother."

After she said this, Zhu Xiu didn’t relax. Instead, his grip tightened.

"You..." Bai Wanwan was speechless. ’Why is he squeezing even harder?!’

"Don’t say any more. You have to hold on. Once the Witch Doctor gets here, you’ll definitely be fine."

’I was already fine. Perfectly fine, in fact.’

It was just that the swelling sensation in her belly was intensifying, a clear sign that birth was imminent.

Suddenly, she felt something break inside her belly, and something came tumbling out.

One, two, three...

A total of five cubs rolled onto the bedding.

"Congratulations, Host, for giving birth to two Yellow Rank male wolf cubs, two Green Rank male Cat Cubs, and one Cyan Rank male Cat Cub. You are rewarded with 31,000 Points."

’They’re all males? Why is there such a huge difference in rank among the cubs every time I give birth?’

Yellow Rank and Cyan Rank were two levels apart—the difference was practically night and day.

"The Host is a Holy Female. All cubs born will have a Talent bonus, but it cannot be guaranteed that all cubs will be of High Rank."

"However, please rest assured, Host. Although some cubs are not of high rank, you possess Points and can exchange them for Potions in the future to raise their ranks."

Bai Wanwan didn’t even need to think about it. ’Those rank-enhancing Potions will definitely cost a massive amount of Points.’

Zhu Xiu, at her side, had no idea what had just happened. He was still observing her expression to gauge her condition.

But he found that Bai Wanwan’s expression was relaxed.

’Hm? What’s that sound?’

Just then, he heard a very faint whimpering sound.

"Wanwan, did you hear something?" Zhu Xiu tilted his head, listening carefully to identify the source of the sound.

Only then did Bai Wanwan stop her conversation with the system. She turned her head to look at him. "Stop looking. It’s the cubs."

As she spoke, she lifted the blanket a little, revealing several plump little cubs inside.

Zhu Xiu’s eyes seemed to forget how to move. He stared at the cubs for a while before he realized what had happened.

"You... when did you give birth?"

’A female giving birth... just happened silently like that?’

’How is this so different from everything I’ve heard?’

"It happened right after I told you it didn’t hurt. They came out very quickly."

Zhu Xiu was still marveling at how smoothly Wanwan’s delivery had been, but his gaze was soon captivated by the cubs.

"Two of them actually have Yellow Rank Talent?"

Not all Beastmen could see a cub’s Talent, but powerful males with strong Talent Power could.

Zhu Xiu could tell with a single glance that in this litter of Wanwan’s, at least two had Yellow Rank Talent.

He snapped his head around, his expression still tense. "Wanwan, we can’t go to the Super Tribe for the time being."

"Hm? Why not?"

’The best resources on the Beast World Continent are probably all in the Super Tribes. If I want to live comfortably in this world, I definitely have to go to the most prosperous and bustling place.’

"The cubs you gave birth to have Talent that’s too strong. The powerful individuals in a Super Tribe would be able to tell easily. Your identity as a Holy Female can’t be hidden."

He also had his own selfish reasons; he didn’t want to expose her to all those other males.

Bai Wanwan hesitated as well. She needed powerful males with high Talent to be her Beast Husbands, but on the condition that she was the one who chose them.

’What’s the point if I’m forced into it?’

’Then I’ll just have to wait. I’ll wait until I have enough Points to make my Beast Husbands and cubs powerful, and then we’ll go.’

Seeing that she didn’t object, Zhu Xiu helped her lie down. "Rest for a bit. I’m going to stop Xin Feng."

If the Clan Witch used special methods, he could also see the cubs’ Talent.

If they couldn’t go to a Super Tribe, living here was a good option.

But the prerequisite was that Wanwan’s identity could not be exposed. Otherwise, the fate of the Cat Clan Tribe might become the fate of this tribe.

Zhu Xiu left quickly. Before he went, he used his Talent Power to set a trap in front of the door, only then leaving with his mind at ease.

Not long after he left, the figure of an unfamiliar male appeared outside the stone house. He was dragging a piece of prey, which he skillfully tossed in front of Bai Wanwan’s door before quickly darting away to hide.

After so many days... he hadn’t seen her even once. Yan Lie was a little disappointed.

If she hadn’t saved him on the snowy plains, Yan Lie knew he would have never survived.

Her face was deeply etched in his memory. He had searched the snowy plains over and over again, and had finally found her in the Black Dog Clan Tribe.

Leaving prey was his way of thanking her for saving his life.

Knowing she had two extremely powerful Beast Husbands, Yan Lie didn’t get close, only watching her from a distance.

Later on, after attracting the attention of her two Beast Husbands, he never saw her again.

He gave the tightly shut stone door a helpless glance, didn’t approach, and turned to leave.

Zhu Xiu was very fast. He intercepted Xin Feng just as he was about to reach the Clan Witch’s cave.

"Why are you here? Did you leave Wanwan at home alone?" Xin Feng’s brows furrowed in disapproval.

"Wanwan gave birth. Come back with me."

"She gave birth?"

The moment Xin Feng heard this, he dropped the prey in his hands and rushed home like a gust of wind.

Zhu Xiu immediately scooped up the prey and quickly gave chase.

He removed the trap just before Xin Feng entered the house.

After Xin Feng went inside, Zhu Xiu glanced at the prey in front of the door and then raised his eyes to survey the surroundings.

Then he stepped over the prey...

Xin Feng strode into the house and immediately saw Bai Wanwan in her beast form, with several cubs nuzzling in her embrace.

"Wanwan..."

His throat tightened, unable to say more.

Wanwan had actually borne him five cubs. This was something he had never dared to even imagine before.

Zhu Xiu leaned against the wall of the stone cave, looking at Xin Feng’s flustered excitement with a hint of disdain.

When he turned to look at the cubs, he couldn’t help but tighten his lips into a thin line.

’This Silver Wolf is really lucky.’

"You’re back?" Bai Wanwan had been nursing the cubs for a while and was so sleepy she let out a yawn.

Xin Feng sat down next to her and reached out, tentatively touching the cubs.

Warm and soft... a tiny little bundle. His own flesh and blood.

"I gave you five cubs this time. Do you like them?"

Bai Wanwan blinked her cat-like eyes, dark and bright.

Although Xin Feng couldn’t see her smile, he could imagine her expression.

His expression softened impossibly. "Yes, I like them. As long as they’re from you, Wanwan, I’ll love them all."

"Can you see their Talent?"

Xin Feng stared at the cubs for a moment, then shook his head. "I can’t see it."

"Then take a guess what kind of Talent these cubs have."

"Cyan Rank? Green Rank?"

’Out of five cubs, it would be amazing if even two or three were born with Talent.’

"Why are your standards so low? Come on, let me tell you. These two are Yellow Rank, these two are Green Rank, and this one is Cyan Rank..."

"What did you say?" Xin Feng looked at her in disbelief, as if he’d been struck by lightning.
