Chapter 868 - 854: Acceptance

The system was stunned as it listened to this and couldn’t help but say, "No wonder there are so few High Priests here, now I see why."

"Are there hidden Demon Beasts as well?"

"It seems they are also related to the Demon Beasts of the Endless Sea."

"The Demon Beasts from the Endless Sea are terrifying, immensely powerful, with bizarre shapes, and their blood is also different."

"The Insect Clan Beastmen in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land are still hunting the Demon Beasts of the Endless Sea, but for what purpose is unknown."

Previously, Su Muyao had been to the Endless Sea and could sense the immense size of those Demon Beasts, as well as the waves they stirred when they swam.

Moreover, the reason the Endless Sea became an area enveloped by a Dark Aura seems to also be related to those Demon Beasts.

Additionally, before, the Ant Clan Beastman Qiu Zhezhi had explained some things in the Secret Realm.

He said the Endless Sea has a passage to their Insect Clan’s ancestral land.

And the Immortal Crystals they excavated, they also want to send back through the passage of the Endless Sea.

Qiu Zhezhi has some connections with those Insect Clan Beastmen in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land.

Come to think of it now, those Demon Beasts indeed have issues.

They couldn’t just appear out of thin air; perhaps they also appeared suddenly through some passage.

Luckily, the Great Power of the Witch Clan had long sealed the Nine Nether Forbidden Land.

But now the Barrier of the Nine Nether Forbidden Land is weakening, and the Great Power of the Witch Clan no longer exists to reinforce it.

Relying solely on Yue Wuhen’s strength, it’s tough to completely fortify the Barrier.

Moreover, the Insect Clan has many Secret Techniques to send those Insect Clan Beastmen out.

They have even begun to use Demon Beast blood to activate Sacrificial Arrays for sending clansmen out.

They are tirelessly working towards this goal.

After Jin Tuo finished speaking, he respectfully bowed to the image of the Beast God, "It must be the protection of the Beast God that saved Black Rock City."

It was also the protection of the Beast God that led this Immortal Beastman to appear in Black Rock City, even becoming the wife of his son.

More importantly, she treats his son so well.

Having such a capable wife, he feels at ease for his son.

Of course, under Su Muyao’s suggestion, the defense of Black Rock City is now more solid.

However, Su Muyao extracted a key sentence from all this talk, "Father, what did you just say about the Beast God’s return being related to the Immortal Beastman?"

The main concern now isn’t about the Beastmen’s resentment or not worshiping the Beast God, but rather how to make Xiao Jihan Become God.

Once he becomes the Beast God, many issues might be resolved.

Jin Tuo, upon hearing Su Muyao call him father, was on the brink of kneeling.

His hands began to tremble.

An Immortal... Immortal Beastman called him father.

He truly felt unworthy, yet was so moved he couldn’t speak.

He looked at his son, realizing how lucky his son was to have such a wonderful female, receiving the love of his wife, which allowed him to be considered as a father.

Many females are indifferent to their Beast Husbands and unwilling to meet their Beast Husband’s relatives, also being extremely cold to their Beast Husband’s parents.

Yet she is not like that.

She should be... an Immortal Beastman?

Xuan Yan was deeply moved.

She... she is willing to call his father as father; Xuan Yan was profoundly touched.

He knows most females would not address them this way.

Because many females are arrogant and cold, even heartless.

He is so fortunate to have such a good wife.

Just by looking at his father’s excited and flustered state, he coughed and reminded, "Father, what do you mean by the return of the Beast God requiring the assistance of an Immortal Beastman?"

Jin Tuo, barely regaining his senses, said, "I’m not sure, but I heard your mother mention it before; so I thought perhaps there might be some connection between Immortal Beasts and Divine Beasts."

Xuan Yan turned to Su Muyao, "Seems like we have to ask my Mother about some matters."

Su Muyao nodded; anyhow, they’re soon heading to the Bird Clan, and it’ll be timely to ask Xuan Yan’s mother then.

In Su Muyao’s view, the High Priest indeed has some Divine Skills.

For instance, Xiao Min, the High Priest of the Ice Wolf Clan in the Taixu Secret Realm, through the Holy Tree as a sacrificial aid, could see Xiao Jihan’s situation and informed her.

That’s how she knew about Xiao Jihan’s situation.

Otherwise, she would have thought Xiao Jihan had Become God.

Such Divine Skills aren’t something an ordinary Beastman can possess.

Su Muyao is very grateful to Xiao Min.

At least she arrived in time.

"In any case, thank you, Father, for telling us all this."

"I heard Father is injured, and I have the Healing Ability, let me heal Father first."

Listening to this, Jin Tuo was astonished.

Healing Ability?

This kind of ability is extremely rare and exceptionally precious.

If any tribe or city has a Healing Superpower Beastman, then that tribe and city’s combat power would be greatly enhanced.

There would also be many strong individuals joining that tribe and city.

Since hunters often get injured, although there are clan doctors and even Green Crystal Stones to heal, it doesn’t compare to the power of the Healing Ability.

Jin Tuo was deeply grateful.

He cooperated fully as Su Muyao used her Wood Element Ability to heal Jin Tuo’s wounds from a distance and also gave him the elixir she prepared using herbs.

"Father, this elixir can help you reach Level 7 and increase the success rate."

Su Muyao, coming so late to treat Xuan Yan’s father’s injuries, was due to preparing this elixir.

Fortunately, Black Rock City has an abundance of medicinal resources, and Xuan Yan has many precious spirit medicine ingredients, which allowed Su Muyao to prepare this elixir.

Without a Pill Furnace, the refining effectiveness of the elixir is halved.

Even so, it will aid Jin Tuo in reaching Level 7.

Then, Black Rock City will be completely secure, and large tribes wouldn’t dare attack recklessly.

That way, Xuan Yan can take them south, feeling more at ease about Black Rock City.

Moreover, here, after reaching Level 7, a Beastman’s lifespan also increases slightly.

For some time, Xuan Yan wouldn’t need to return to manage Black Rock City.

Jin Tuo felt his injuries were completely healed, so he fully believed what Su Muyao said.

He also realized how precious this elixir was.

He was at a loss for words, only able to express gratitude repeatedly.

He even thought about organizing a trade caravan to sell candles and fire sticks, letting everyone know it was the guidance of the Beast God.

He wants more people to believe the Beast God is still around.

...

On the way back, Xuan Yan looked at Su Muyao, hesitating to speak.

"What’s the matter?"

Xuan Yan softly said, "Wife, thank you."

Spending a whole Snow Season together, even without his memories, Xuan Yan deeply fell in love with Su Muyao.

He had never met such a wonderful female.

He thanked her for calling Jin Tuo father.

Though he hadn’t spent much time with his father, he could feel his father’s love, and he cared about his father.

Su Muyao looked into Xuan Yan’s eyes, understanding his thoughts, and said with a smile, "It’s nothing, your father is my father too."

After all this time together, Su Muyao looked at Xuan Yan’s face and clearly knew this was not Shen Ci’an.

She could distinguish with clarity.

The whole Snow Season, he and Xiao Jihan took care of her and the Zaizai.

He truly is a very thoughtful and gentle person.

The Zaizai all like him very much.

He learned many things for her.

She is moved, but her feelings for Xuan Yan go beyond just being touched; she likes and perhaps even loves him.

"Wife, can I hug you?"

Despite being together for so long, they hadn’t formed a Contract.

Su Muyao always thought since he hadn’t regained his memory, she wanted to give them more time.

Xuan Yan always respected and tolerated her.

Su Muyao took the initiative to hug Xuan Yan and even stood on her toes, giving him a kiss on the cheek.

She noticed Xuan Yan’s face turning red instantly, and when he looked at her, his blood-colored eyes burned as if they contained two flames.
