Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 32 - 31: Call Me Beast Husband

After a bath, the drafty room no longer stank, and Si Shuo felt like she had come back to life.

She lazily dried her hair, watching Xu Chi, who had sat down again next to the bed. Since the cat was already out of the bag, there was nothing left to hide. She asked, "Xu Chi, since I have a superpower too, how do I go about Cultivation so I can fight like you guys? Can superpowers be leveled up?"

She had figured out her superpower entirely through trial and error. Aside from healing, her Catalyst Technique was pretty useless. The main problem was that her superpower reserves were too small!

Take this time, for instance. She had been abducted from the tribe by the Crowned Eagle Beastman. If Xu Chi hadn’t been there, she would have either fallen into the hands of other cruel, cold-blooded Rogue Beasts or been captured by the Crowned Eagle Beastman again. There was no way she could be calmly waiting for Zhi Le’s arrival like she was now.

On the Beast World Continent, she couldn’t pin all her hopes on her partners.

Even if she had more partners by her side in the future, she could never be one hundred percent safe.

After experiencing what it felt like to be a fish on the chopping block, she no longer wanted to leave her fate to chance!

And this was the very reason she had made her wish to the system in the first place.

Xu Chi turned his head to look at her. He reached out and took her hand, lacing their fingers together, palm to palm.

A warm current seeped from his palm into hers, bringing with it a slight stinging pain. Si Shuo hissed, and the warm current seemed to startle, becoming gentler and smaller.

Now, all she felt was a slight tingling numbness. It didn’t hurt, but she couldn’t ignore it. "Xu Chi, what are you doing?"

"We males awaken our superpowers relatively early. Some with high talent are even born with them. The latest it happens is around the time of our Transformation.

"You could say that when we go out to hunt, we train our superpowers and Combat Power simultaneously. We’ve been through countless life-and-death situations. With such high-intensity practice every day, our superpowers naturally improve a great deal."

Si Shuo nodded in understanding. ’I’m like ore freshly dug from a mine, while they’re like weapons that have been forged and tempered. The gap between us is massive.’

"I’m currently simulating the way Spiritual Power scours the meridians during an advancement. It’ll be a bit uncomfortable, so please bear with it for a moment, Si Shuo..." Xu Chi said in a low voice.

Si Shuo’s face flushed slightly. "I think you can increase the force a bit, but go a little slower.

"I have a Wood Element Ability, with some Healing Ability. I was thinking that while you’re scouring my meridians, I could use my Healing Ability at the same time. That way, I can strengthen my meridians while also training my Healing Ability."

Xu Chi stroked her head. "It will hurt. You don’t need to push yourself so hard, Si Shuo. Your body is too weak right now. We can take it slow; there’s no rush. I’ll protect you."

Si Shuo pressed her lips together and glared at him. "I’m already delicate enough as it is, and my resolve to get stronger is shaky.

"Instead of cheering me on, you’re holding me back?

"I want to have more ways to protect myself. That’s also my way of protecting my Beast Husbands."

Xu Chi froze for a moment. His glass-like eyes shone with exceptional brightness as he looked at the little female in the dim light.

This tiny, frail creature, who was clearly the one who needed protecting, had managed to escape from the Crowned Eagle Beastman with her wits and now wanted to become strong enough to protect the males.

He lowered his gaze and said softly, "Since this is what you want, Si Shuo, then I will of course support you with all my strength."

As he spoke, he flipped his hand over, revealing a Level 8 Crystal Stone. He popped it into his mouth and chewed it a few times before leaning down to press his lips against her soft ones, gradually transferring the gentle, non-aggressive energy to her.

Si Shuo couldn’t help but close her eyes. ’Why does everyone transfer energy like this?’

Xu Chi made no superfluous movements. After all the energy was transferred, he sat up straight and said in a calm voice, "Si Shuo, focus.

"The energy from the Crystal Stone can circulate in your body for one Beast Hour. When you use your Healing Ability, try to draw on this energy first."

Si Shuo took a deep breath and nodded firmly. "I’m ready. Let’s begin!"

Xu Chi increased the input of Spiritual Power while observing her expression and the state of damage and repair to the meridians inside her body.

Si Shuo tried her best to ignore the aching, stinging pain of her meridians being widened, focusing her attention on mobilizing the energy in her body to repair the fissures on them.

Thanks to her experience healing Zhi Le, and because the meridians were small, she was just barely able to keep up with Xu Chi’s pace.

Just as she was gradually getting the hang of it, Xu Chi took her other hand and opened up a second route for widening...

A day on the Beast World Continent has thirty-six hours, and one Beast Hour is two hours long.

After all the meridians in Si Shuo’s body had been scoured and tempered once, the Crystal Stone energy stored within her was completely depleted!

She let out a small sigh of relief. Opening her eyes, she felt her whole body was much clearer and lighter.

"Si Shuo, try using your Catalyst Technique on several seeds and compressing them into a barbed whip," Xu Chi said, releasing her hands. The corners of his lips held the faint trace of a smile.

Si Shuo nodded and, after taking out some seeds, began to use her technique.

This time, she could clearly feel that her internal superpower reserves were at least ten times more abundant than before!

And her control over her superpower was also much more precise.

Following Xu Chi’s guidance, Si Shuo haltingly managed to condense a whip that was three meters long and as thick as a thigh, with very fine barbs on it.

Xu Chi grabbed the whip and felt it. "This is very good. At least you can solidify it into a shape. Next time, Si Shuo, you can try to make the whip a little thinner and the barbs harder and sharper.

"When you can use ten times the current number of seeds to condense a whip as thick as two fingers, you’ll have reached the First Level of your superpower."

Si Shuo looked at the twisting whip in Xu Chi’s grasp, and the corner of her mouth twitched. With a light clench of her hand, the whip dissolved into green fluorescent light and vanished into the air.

She saw that the proficiency for ’As if in the spring breeze’ had reached 58, and the proficiency for her Catalyst Technique had also reached 30. She was in a particularly good mood.

’As long as I keep working hard, I’m sure I’ll be able to level up quickly.’

As she relaxed, she finally caught a whiff of sweat and the foul stench of impurities expelled from her body!

Si Shuo couldn’t help but ask, "Xu Chi, is there something like a Dust Cleaning Skill? You know, something where I can just snap my fingers and get clean and smell nice without having to bathe myself?"

Xu Chi looked at her. "There is."

Si Shuo was pleasantly surprised. ’Did I come to a cultivation world instead of the Beast World?’ "Hurry up and teach me!"

"You snap your fingers, call me ’Beast Husband,’ and you won’t have to bathe yourself."

Si Shuo...

’I really was overthinking it!’

After taking another bath, Si Shuo was drowsy as she dried her hair.

Xu Chi pulled her into his arms. He stroked her hair, and a gentle breeze blew through the strands, carrying away the moisture.

In just three to five minutes, Si Shuo was fast asleep, buried in his embrace.

Xu Chi crouched in front of her, watching her intently. He lightly touched her lips and cheek. They were so warm and soft that he felt an impulse to tear into her and devour her.

A flash of confusion crossed his eyes. He immediately clenched his fists and sat back down in his original spot.

’I’m not a spider-type beastman, nor a mantis-type. I’m not even a female, so why would I have the thought of eating my partner?’
