After I Dumped 7 Beast Husbands and Ran

Hu Qian’s entire body ached so badly that even the slightest movement made him grimace.

What rotten luck.

He’d run into a tough nut on a simple mission.

Before this mission, he never would have imagined that a single female could contract so many Lord-level Beast Husbands.

She was a Bird Beastman, yet she wasn’t picky at all, even contracting a Snake Husband!

Even that great eagle male, Chi Xiao, was helping her.

Weren’t Chi Xiao and Xuan Jin famously mortal enemies? Rumor had it that Xuan Jin nearly did Chi Xiao in six years ago.

And now these mortal enemies were actually teaming up to attack him!

How ridiculous! Utterly, absurdly ridiculous!

If he didn’t report this, he wouldn’t be able to rest easy!

Two Eight Pattern Great Priests walked over to the entrance of the Priest Hall.

Ying Li chuckled and teased, ”Hu Qian, what happened to you? Who beat you up so badly?”

”Don’t even ask. I didn’t just lose; I nearly died. HISS... Why is the High Priest going into seclusion so often? Didn’t he just come out? Why is he in seclusion again?”

”Maybe he’s trying to achieve a breakthrough,” Ying Li said.

”A breakthrough to what? He’s already a Nine-striped Beast Emperor. If he breaks through again, is he going to become the Beast God?”

”Who knows? You should hurry and get your wounds treated before you bleed to death.”

”Speaking of which, this business with the rebel army is a real pain,” Ying Li complained.

”They’re like cockroaches, hiding in every corner of every tribe in the Beast World. You never know which Beastmen are part of the rebel army. Even if you catch one, they refuse to name their accomplices, no matter how you torture them.”

Bao He said, ”Catching a few grunts is useless. We still need to find a way to draw out the rebel army’s leader.”

Hu Qian said, ”The rebel army isn’t a problem we can solve overnight. You two need to help me with my problem first!”

At this, Hu Qian’s anger flared. ”Didn’t I go to the Eastern Forest to investigate the deaths of two females? I found out it was another female who did it. I was going to arrest the culprit and bring her to justice, but then a few Beastmen from the East beat me up!”

Ying Li asked in disbelief, ”Impossible. Doesn’t the East only have Seven-striped Beast Kings? You couldn’t beat them?”

”Of course I’m not afraid of one Beast King, but I couldn’t handle them ganging up on me.”

”The Beast Kings of the East have united?” Bao He was stunned.

The fact that those Beast Kings in the East occupied their own territories and governed themselves independently was well-known. How could they possibly have united?

Hu Qian said, ”Ying Li, Bao He, come with me on this trip. I’ll owe you one.”

A favor from an Eight Pattern Priest was well worth earning. Ying Li said, ”Alright, Bao He and I will go with you.”

...

The sun blazed overhead. Nan Zishi rolled up her sleeves and sat on a tree stump, gulping down water.

After days of training with her two devilish Beast Husbands, her skin had grown firmer, her abs had become defined, and her skin seemed to glow red under the sun.

As sweat trickled down her skin, both Xuan Jin’s and Chi Xiao’s eyes darkened.

”So tired.” Nan Zishi lay sprawled on the ground, limbs askew.

Chi Xiao blushed and averted his gaze.

’My heart is pounding like crazy.’

’Thank you, Beast God, for granting me such a perfect female.’

’She’s gentle, beautiful, a great fighter, and loves the cubs.’

’She can even fly and spar with me!’

Perfect. The Fire Red Eagle was extremely satisfied.

Xuan Jin watched this big, flamboyant bird spread its wings, flapping once to the left and once to the right. His expression immediately darkened.

’Hu Bai can dance, Lanxing can sing, and now even this big bird can dance!’

’To be honest, it’s not that we Snake Beastmen can’t dance. It’s just that the dance of the Snake Beastmen is a funereal dance. Other races wouldn’t find it beautiful...’

His great tail whipped out, interrupting the show-off bird’s dance.

Chi Xiao leaped up in anger. ”Xuan Jin, what are you doing?!”

Xuan Jin: ”Sorry. My tail is too big. It’s not under my control.”

Chi Xiao: ”...”

Hu Bai arrived with lunch.

Xuan Jin and Chi Xiao didn’t get along, fighting at least three times a day. Hu Bai was already used to it.

’Honestly, I can’t stand Xuan Jin. With Chi Xiao here, he can keep Xuan Jin in check.’

The Fire Red Eagle would fight the Xuan Snake whenever he had a chance, which let the two Strong Beastmen vent their energy, making life at home much more peaceful.

He divided the meat he had prepared for the day into several portions.

Since Xuan Jin and Chi Xiao liked to eat raw meat, he simply cut off some for them.

Nan Zishi preferred refined, cooked food, so he stir-fried her portion carefully.

Chi Xiao, who had been tearing into his raw meat, glanced at his female master eating her cooked food in a slow, unhurried manner. Suddenly, the meat in his mouth didn’t seem so tasty.

’Maybe the meat on the female master’s plate is more fragrant and delicious.’

Nan Zishi took a bite of meat and said to Hu Bai with great enjoyment, ”Hu Bai, your cooking is getting better and better. This is delicious.”

Hu Bai smiled. ”If you like it, eat more. You’ve been working so hard these past few days. Helping you with food and drink is all I can do.”

Xuan Jin arched a wicked eyebrow.

’This Fire Red Eagle is just a big idiot. Nothing to be afraid of.’

’But Hu Bai is different. Nan Zishi clearly likes him more.’

’What’s so great about Hu Bai, anyway?’

That evening, Nan Zishi returned to the cave after finishing her cultivation. With a pleased smile, she said to her Beast Husbands and cubs, ”Everyone, come over here for a moment.”

”Mm, coming.” ”On my way!” ”Mama!!”

Hu Bai, Lanxing, Xuan Jin, and Chi Xiao all put down what they were doing and gathered around her.

The cubs also sat down nearby.

Nan Zishi looked over her Beast Husbands and cubs, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

’I actually have so many Beast Husbands and cubs already. My family has grown so large.’

The White Fox male asked with a gentle smile, ”Female Master, what is it?”

Nan Zishi snapped back to the present and said to her four handsome, extraordinary Beast Husbands, ”There’s an important matter that I want to take care of first.”

Lanxing asked curiously, ”What is it, Zishi?”

”Capturing Yu Chen.”

...

On the shore of the vast, boundless sea, Mermaid Xiaofu was playing carefree with her big brother, Little Fox Qi.

A brown-haired mermaid surfaced on the sea, looking with irritation at the carefree Little Mermaid before him.

’I had the Wandering Beastmen abduct Little Fu, but she ended up being sent back to the sea.’

’I tied up Lanxing and Nan Zishi at the bottom of the sea, but they escaped.’

’I had the Scorpion Beastmen abduct Little Fu, but she was sent back again.’

’Why does nothing I do ever succeed?!’

’I’m so useless. No wonder my female master abandoned me.’

Yu Chen’s gaze turned cold and vicious once more.

He refused to believe he couldn’t get rid of Little Fu this time!

He carefully scanned his surroundings, confirming that there were no adult males present.

He slowly walked ashore, completely concealing himself with Jue Sha and Beast Skin, and headed toward Little Fu.

’Lanxing is such a useless Mermaid Prince. If a little mermaid can be lost once or twice, she can be lost a third and fourth time...’

’This time, I won’t use those traffickers to sell Little Fu. I’ll take Little Fu away myself, take her somewhere far, far away, and separate her from her father Lanxing!’

However, just as Yu Chen was about to touch Little Fu, she looked up, pointed at him, and shouted, ”Ah, bad fishy!”

In that instant, a large, strong hand seized Yu Chen’s.

Yu Chen tried to yank his hand away but failed.

The Seven-striped Fire Red Eagle narrowed his eyes and stared fiercely at the mermaid before him. ”So you’re the one who’s been hurting my family’s cub, huh? You scoundrel, you’re dead!”

Chi Xiao forced Yu Chen to his knees as Lanxing suddenly emerged from the sea, glaring at him with his arms crossed.

Hu Bai and Xuan Jin also appeared from nearby.

The black-eyed, black-haired female walked up to him. Chi Xiao grabbed his head and forced him to look up.

’Damn it, I walked right into it! It was a trap!’

Nan Zishi questioned him coldly, ”Yu Chen, why did you want to harm my cub?”

The gray mermaid was forced to look up at Nan Zishi, and the moment he did, his expression became strange.

It was unclear if it was hatred or resentment, but it didn’t seem to be directed at Nan Zishi. It was as if he were looking through her at someone else.

”I’ve lost. I admit defeat. Just kill me.”

His female master had abandoned him, his cub was dead, and he himself no longer wanted to live!

It was just a shame... he couldn’t get his revenge.

Lanxing was disappointed and furious. ”Why are you targeting me? I could understand if it was just me, but why harm Little Fu! Yu Chen, we were friends! We were friends!”
