She gave birth to a litter of furry babies, thus extending her life.

Chapter 207 He's not my beast husband yet.

Ruan Xiyue's almond-shaped eyes seemed to hold a pool of autumn water as she looked at Qi Heng with a hesitant expression.

"Could you take me to your place for a while?"

Qi Heng immediately imagined many things. For example, did Ruan Xiyue often reminisce about her loved ones when she was at home? Did she think about all the little moments she shared with the cubs? Or did she feel sad and heartbroken when she saw other cubs?

He quickly nodded, greeted the beastmen who were helping to build the stone house in the distance, and then left with Ruan Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue arrived at Qi Heng's temporary lodging, which was clearly a stone house built for single beastmen and was not very big.

However, though small, it has all the vital organs.

Ruan Xiyue sat down next to Qi Heng and gently rested her head on his shoulder.

Qi Heng appeared extremely nervous. He remembered that just over ten days ago, when Ruan Xiyue buried the cub herself, she cried her heart out. It had saddened him greatly as well.

It wasn't just because the buried cubs were two of the offspring of the Spirit Fox tribe, who were atavistic bloodlines.

Furthermore, seeing Ruan Xiyue sad made his heart ache.

Qi Heng spoke softly, "Holy Mother Xi Yue...may I call you Yue'er?"

"Mmm," Ruan Xiyue replied weakly to Qi Heng.

Qi Heng asked somewhat nervously, "Would you like something to eat? Or, would you like me to boil some water for you so you can take a hot bath?"

"I specially built a stone bath here, and even asked the Nine Star Beast Master to add runes to it. The water in the stone bath can maintain its temperature for a long time."

"It really relieves fatigue!"

Ruan Xiyue's eyes lit up. She'd never heard of this before! Qi Heng actually managed to get his hands on this amazing thing!

Jiu Chen didn't even get a stone-carved bathtub for his own home! Thumbs down! I'll have to give him a piece of my mind when I get back!

"The stones needed for the main stone-carved bath need to be specially sourced. Otherwise, they cannot bear the high priest's runic power."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Xiyue narrowed her eyes, thinking to herself: "Good lad! You're really trying to take advantage of me! You want me to take you as your beast mate before you'll give me anything, huh!"

Fearing that Ruan Xiyue might misunderstand, Qi Heng quickly whispered to her, "I still have a few stones here. Yue'er, do you want to take them back now, or wait until Beast City is built and then use them in your new residence in Beast City?"

As Qi Heng spoke, he took out several large, dark gray stones from his storage bag.

Ruan Xiyue then stood up and looked at Qi Heng: "Are you really going to give it to me directly?"

Qi Heng nodded: "I found this a while ago. I originally wanted to give it to you... I hope it's not too late to give it to you now."

"What else do you like? Just tell me. I'll try to find it for you!"

Looking at Qi Heng's devout and earnest expression, Ruan Xiyue pursed her lips and lowered her head: "Help me boil some water. I want to take a nice bath."

While Qi Heng went to boil water, Ruan Xiyue was thinking about when to accelerate the research and development of cosmetics.

Lip rouge, blush, eyebrow pencils, and the like can all be put on the agenda! Although some females on the orc continent use flower petals to dye their nails, it seems that no orcs study things like lip rouge.

It's best to make a small batch initially. This item isn't a necessity in the harsh environment of the Beast World. In fact, it might not even be very popular with females on the Beast God Continent.

Because pearl powder and similar materials are not waterproof, and most females on the Beast God Continent still need to work hard to make a living.

When they are busy running around in their orc form, they often sweat, so products like pearl powder and foundation may not be very suitable for the market in this world.

However, lip balm, blush, and eyebrow pencils might have a better market. You could give it a try!

Just as Ruan Xiyue was thinking about these things, Qi Heng had already boiled water.

Ruan Xiyue watched in surprise as Qi Heng poured pot after pot of water into the changing room, and she couldn't help but frown.

How big must that pool be?

Out of curiosity, Ruan Xiyue went inside.

The bathtub wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. It was over two meters wide and 1.8 meters long! The depth was just right for someone to sit down and have their head sticking out.

Qi Heng brought over several more large pots of hot water, then, drenched in sweat, asked Ruan Xiyue, "Yue'er, try the temperature with your hand and see if it's suitable?"

Ruan Xiyue reached out and touched it; it was slightly hot.

She looked at Qi Heng with bright eyes and nodded.

Then, she quickly lowered her head again, feeling that the persona she was supposed to portray had slightly collapsed.

Qi Heng quickly said, "Then Yue'er, you go wash up. I'll go prepare some more hot water."

Ruan Xiyue grabbed Qi Heng directly, raised her furrowed brows slightly, and said pitifully, "Stay with me."

Qi Heng's cheeks flushed instantly, and he stammered, "Oh...oh okay, okay..."

Ruan Xiyue removed her makeup and entered the bath. Qi Heng nervously turned his back, not daring to look at Ruan Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue tilted her head curiously: "Aren't you coming down?"

Qi Heng quickly wiped away the blood dripping from under his nose. Only then did he frantically begin to take off his animal skin skirt.

Ruan Xiyue saw that Qi Heng's face was flushed red after diving into the water, and there was still blood under his nose that he hadn't wiped clean. She almost couldn't help but laugh.

She had just smelled a faint, sweet, metallic scent; it really was the smell of blood!

Ruan Xiyue looked at Qi Heng, who was sitting in the corner, far away from her.

She then used the buoyancy to swim to Qi Heng's side.

Qi Heng's fox-like eyes widened in shock. He looked at Ruan Xiyue, not wanting to push her away, yet unsure of what to do next.

He was afraid that if he took the initiative too much, Ruan Xiyue, who was in a sad mood, would think that he was a beast who took advantage of her when she was upset.

He was also afraid that if he didn't take the initiative, Ruan Xiyue would misunderstand that he didn't like her...

Just as he was at a loss, Ruan Xiyue directly captured his lips with hers and straddled Qi Heng in front of him...

That night, the water in the bath rippled continuously until late into the night, when Qi Heng finally carried Ruan Xiyue to his bed, which he had laid out with animal skin cushions.

The next morning, while Qi Heng was preparing food, Ruan Xiyue asked Duoduo, "I took a multi-pregnancy pill as soon as I entered the changing room. Is it Qi Heng's child?"

Duoduo quickly replied: "Yes, I'm pregnant with Qi Heng's cub from last night. Not Long Ze's cub from yesterday morning."

Ruan Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief: 【That's good, that's good! How many are there this time?】

[Four of them, my esteemed host!]

Ruan Xiyue nodded: [Qi Heng can feel it now, right?]

Duoduo quickly replied: "Yes, host. Qi Heng, the beastman, is a brown-rank beastman. He immediately sensed his own bloodline. So, fearing you might be hungry, he got up to cook."

He can't be my beast husband yet. Let me see what kind of bomb Xia Weier detonates in the Spirit Fox Tribe.

After considering Qi Heng's choice, I'll decide whether to take him as my beastly husband! Calling him my beastly husband now is premature!
