Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 269 - 268: Left or Right, Take a Guess

Si Shuo sensed something was wrong with his voice, but she didn’t ask. She let him hold her as he kicked off the ground and shot into the sky, flying straight toward their tent.

Her other Beast Husbands, except for Gong You, transformed into their Beast Forms and followed close behind, their steps a little unsteady.

Once inside the tent, they all returned to their human forms. After setting up a Protective Array, each of them popped a Revitalizing Pill into their mouth.

Clearly, they had also realized something was amiss. The drowsiness had crept up on them slowly, making it difficult to notice. But they kept a strict routine, and they had never felt tired at this hour.

When it happened to one, then another, it was impossible not to be suspicious. Fortunately, they had the Revitalizing Pills from Si Shuo. The elixirs contained a gentle yet potent Spiritual Energy that circulated coolly through their bodies, clearing away most of the discomfort.

Si Shuo pursed her lips. The Female Saint Conference would be over in four or five days, and some Female Saints had already begun to leave with their Beast Husbands.

"They must have added a plant to the firewood that produces a strong hallucinogenic effect when burned," she said. Before taking her own Revitalizing Pill, she had assessed the strange feeling in her body. Between her Wood Attribute Superpower’s intuition and her familiarity with plants, she was fairly certain. "The plant gives off a very faint scent. Mixed in with the smoke from the firewood and roasting meat, it’s almost impossible to detect.

Once inhaled, if an antidote isn’t taken in time, the affected Beastmen will, at best, fall into a deep slumber, unable to distinguish dreams from reality."

"At worst, they’ll subconsciously rationalize anything and everything, no matter how illogical it is!"

"This is definitely the work of the Winged Dragon Clan, or maybe even the Ni Family," Zhi Le said, sucking in a sharp breath. ’If not for the Revitalizing Pills, our entire family would have fallen victim.’

"Sister, I can transform into you—I can even fake the pregnant belly. Let’s see what they’re planning!" As Xiao Cheng spoke, his muscles and bones made soft shifting sounds. Like a clay figure being remolded, he reshaped himself over the next five minutes into a pregnant female identical to Si Shuo.

Everyone in the tent went silent. Their fists were itching. They really wanted to punch this fox.

Si Shuo couldn’t resist walking up to Xiao Cheng. It was like looking in a mirror. She pinched his—her—face. It was so soft, so smooth, so plump. ’No wonder the guys are always so clingy with me. If I were them, I wouldn’t be able to resist either.’

She pulled Xiao Cheng into a hug, nuzzling his neck and cooing, "Little sister, you’re so soft... and you smell so good!"

Wei Ce clenched his fists, grinding his teeth. "Xiao Cheng, after this is all over, you and I are going to spar!" The memory of Si Shuo disguised as a young male White Fox made him clench his jaw in frustration.

Gong You cracked his knuckles. "I’d also like to see how much Xiao Cheng has improved lately. Let’s see if he can win against me, even though I’m a level below him."

Facing the death glares from his brothers, Xiao Cheng looked aggrieved. "Sister is just being a narcissist! She’s fawning over herself. What does that have to do with me?"

The men squeezed their eyes shut. It was just too jarring. That exact expression was why they adored their little female so much; now, seeing it on this imposter just made them want to beat him black and blue.

Xu Chi reached out to pull Si Shuo into his embrace and activate his Invisibility, but she dodged him, grabbing Xiao Cheng and running into the inner room.

A moment later, they came back out, both looking wronged and indignant. One was putting on an act, the other was playing along, but both of their eyes sparkled with mischievous excitement.

"Xiao Cheng is so annoying! He’s copying me!" the one on the left said resentfully, pointing an accusing finger at the one on the right.

"Xiao Cheng, don’t you dare play the victim!" the one on the right shot back, stomping her foot.

"You’re Xiao Cheng!" the one on the left retorted, also stomping her foot.

"You’re Xiao Cheng, you’re Xiao Cheng, you’re Xiao Cheng! I have to say it three times because it’s important," said the one on the right, shaking a small, playful fist.

"You’re Xiao Cheng! Your whole family is Xiao Cheng..."

"You all tell us, who’s the real Xiao Cheng? If you can’t figure out which one is me today, then... then you’re all banned from my room for a month!"

"That’s right! If you can’t tell, it just proves you don’t really care about me. You can all enjoy living like monks for a month," the one on the left added with a gloating nod.

After their half-hearted squabble, the two of them turned in unison to the exasperated men, waiting for them to choose.

’One was a troublemaker, and the other was an expert at it. Together, they could cause unimaginable chaos.’

Zhi Le said with a deadpan expression, "Xiao Cheng, you’d better reveal yourself. Otherwise, you can cook for yourself for the next month."

Xu Chi added coolly, "Xiao Cheng, we’re both Twelfth Level. Have you been slacking off lately? You’ll be spending a lot more time at the Martial Arts Hall for the next month."

Gong You said nothing. He simply lowered his gaze and cracked his knuckles, the sound sharp and menacing.

Yin Jiang sneered. "Ah, Xiao Cheng, even I can’t save you this time. We have more little ones to feed now, and food is tight. No eggs or chicken for you for the next month."

Wei Ce nodded eagerly. "Xiao Cheng, you lack practical combat experience. I’ll personally give you some proper instruction! For a whole month..."

The one on the right immediately grabbed the left one’s arm, looking pitiful and nuzzling against her. "Sister, look, the brothers are all ganging up on me! I was just playing along with you, and now they’re taking it all out on me, trying to exclude me and take away my food.

I bet they can’t actually tell which one is you, so they’re using me as a scapegoat to change the subject..."

The one on the left looked like she was about to cry. "Sister, please stop copying me! I can’t afford to get on the brothers’ bad side. They’d really tear me limb from limb behind your back! For the sake of my chicken and eggs, just admit it’s you, Sister."

A moment ago, both were denying they were Xiao Cheng. Now, they were fighting over who got to be him.

If the men couldn’t sense their own Female Saint through their Beast Marks, they might have actually been fooled.

After all, Xiao Cheng’s superpower was Transformation. It wasn’t just about changing his appearance; it also enabled him to perfectly observe every detail of the person he was impersonating, granting him superb mimicry skills.

Moreover, he spent every day with Si Shuo, so it was only natural that it would be difficult for anyone to tell them apart at a glance.

After letting them mess around for a bit, Gong You stepped forward, arms open, as if to embrace the one on the left. The one on the right stared, dumbfounded, while the one on the left started using her as a shield, as if playing tag.

Gong You was incredibly fast. With his brothers blocking the exit, he easily caught the one on the left, tossed him aside, and then pulled the other into his embrace. He whispered helplessly in her ear, "My dear, you’re really something else!"

The one on the left looked at the circle of Couple Brothers and gave a smile that was halfway to a sob. "Hey, congratulations. You picked the right one!"

Wei Ce scoffed. "So, do you want a loving hug from your brothers, or a baptism by fists and feet?"

"I was just worried something might happen to Sister, so I offered to be her double! There was a good reason for it. And... and later, Sister was the one who roped me into playing along," Xiao Cheng explained helplessly as he reverted to his original form. He looked pleadingly at Si Shuo, who was in Gong You’s arms, but she was pointedly looking at the tent ceiling, then at the floor paved with Beast Skins—anywhere but at him.

After the bout of chaos, everyone’s tension had eased slightly. They set aside their playful mood and began to discuss how to deal with the situation.

"Xiao Cheng will use his Transformation to become me. That will make it easier for me and Xu Chi to investigate," Si Shuo said with a soft cough, adopting Xiao Cheng’s earlier suggestion.
