Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System-Chapter 42 - 41: Not Breaking the Law but Still Ending Up in Prison?

Galian has a problem!

Sally found Grom and didn't mention Rona's situation, after all, she hadn't entered the birthing chamber and merely said that Ashley had called her over.

Grom, recalling Rona's incident, regretfully said, "Such a pity, such a fine female. I'll go take a look. Zulu, you want to have a full moon feast at the Beast God Temple, there's no problem whatsoever."

"Thank you, Witch Clan. Then we won't disturb you any longer, we'll go back and prepare."

"Sure, another day we shall enjoy tea together."

"No problem."

Zulu took Sally's hand and bade farewell to Grom

Grom watched them with contentment, but then he remembered Rona and sighed again.

...

On the way back, Sally thought about Rona's murder, Galian's resentful attitude towards her, and how she had provoked Rona, leading to Rona's condition worsening due to blood loss.

"Zulu, do you know Galian?"

"Galian Walto?"

"Yes."

"The female most favored by the males in the Female Cave."

"You seem quite knowledgeable," Sally replied with a somewhat unfriendly tone.

Zulu laughed it off, "Don't think too much, I have no interest in that kind of worldly female. It's just that when killing demon beasts in the Beast Forest, people gather and talk about all sorts of things."

Curious, Sally asked, "Oh? So what's the word on Galian among you males?"

Zulu thought for a moment and said, "Lago once mentioned that she likes males with strong talents, no matter their character. As long as the talent is good, she can be won over even without Crystal Coins."

"Lago? Shava's Beast Husband?"

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

"Mhm, he must be a regular of Galian's."

"Unfaithful! Not one man is good for anything!"

"..."

"You're the same. Once I've had a child for you, you'll take the child and run away." Sally thought of the Black Panther, that guy only wanted the child. While she was pregnant, she was indulged with good food and drink. But once the child was born, he didn't care whether she lived or died.

Zulu tilted his head slightly to look at her, "Do you really care about me?"

Sally stopped in her tracks, looked up at him with a suspicious gaze, "What do you mean, are you going to leave?"

Zulu looked at her belly, "It's not impossible."

Sally flung his hand away, "If that's the case, I will absolutely, absolutely forget you. In my heart, you won't even leave behind a grave."

It meant even if he died, it wouldn't matter to her.

Zulu looked at her, his gaze extremely serious. After a moment, he suddenly smiled, a dazzlingly captivating smile that could charm the soul.

"Very good!" Zulu patted her head, "My fine female."

"... Take your paws off!" Sally glared at him, pushed his hand away, and walked briskly ahead.

Zulu watched her retreating figure, the smile on his face gradually fading until he finally looked up at the distant sky, "If possible, why not stay after all."

...

Rona was dead!

The Witch Clan of the Rabbit Tribe had also been called in, but even the combined efforts of both Witch Clans couldn't save Rona, who ultimately died from excessive blood loss.

A female with the full bloom of Superior Fertility, withered away just like that.

But with her dying breath, she exhausted all her strength to shout a sentence, "Sally, it's all because of you! Even as a ghost, I will not let you off!"

Somehow, Sally became the prime suspect in Rona's death.

Clan Leader Agma Resh, in his anger at Sally, forbade her from holding a one-month celebration for the children at the Beast God Temple and even considered banishing the entire Millet clan.

If it hadn't been for the clear-headedness of the others persuading the Clan Leader, and Grom pleading for them, they might have had to move to the Rabbit Clan.

Of course, the Rabbit Clan was very welcoming to the Millet family, especially the old Clan Leader who was eager to have his grandsons grow up by his side.

"Just say, what does Rona's death have to do with me?"

Sally felt as wronged as snow in June, imprisoned without breaking any law.

Zulu patted her head, "Don't be angry, at worst we'll move to the Rabbit Tribe. My dad has already expanded the house, and he prepared a plot of land for Robby to build a factory just as you wanted."

Auro didn't really object, as mixing of tribes within a clan was not uncommon, as long as they wouldn't be oppressed there.

"It's okay to leave, but not with such an unjust accusation," Sally said indignantly.

"The Wandering Beastman from the Jackal Clan has already been torn apart while alive. Everyone in the Rat Clan knows this matter has nothing to do with you. Why dwell on a few words from the Clan Leader?" Zulu massaged Sally's back in a rhythmic motion, helping her regulate her qi to prevent anger from affecting the fetus in her womb.

Sally's waistline had started to show signs of pregnancy, making Zulu even more anxious for her.

However, with the protection of the Offspring System, Sally was not the least bit worried about the safety of her fetus. But she felt stifled by the incident and was determined to get to the bottom of it.

Rona's final words couldn't have come from nowhere.

Even if Rona was jealous because she couldn't have Zulu, it wasn't like her to cling to that jealousy until the end, leaving no words for her loved ones.

"I need to find out why Rona hated me so much. Although you are one reason, I always feel there's something else we're missing," Sally thought there must be some important clue she had overlooked.

Ashley came to visit Sally with a basket of fresh fruits.

Seeing her slightly rounded waistline, she first expressed surprise, then smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"Thank you. Please, come in and have a seat," Sally beckoned her into the parlor.

Ashley looked around the parlor, which was now more refined and elegant than her last visit, especially the furniture the likes of which she had never seen before, everything looking lovely, "Who made these? Make me a set too."

"Robby and Zulu did, when they had nothing else to do. I drew the blueprints," Sally invited her to sit on a long bench made of golden phoebe wood covered with a beast skin blanket.

Ashley caressed the bench, appreciating the smooth touch and the beautiful golden inlays in the wood, "How many Crystal Coins? I want one too."

"No need for Crystal Coins, I'll give you this one as a gift."

"Eh? Give it to me?"

"My dad and Robby have decided to move to the Rabbit Tribe."

"Why... That's so sudden. Is it because of the Clan Leader? I can go and plead with my grandmother again."

"That's part of it. The main reason is that the Rabbit Clan has a female with Superior Fertility strength, and Robby fell in love with her at first sight. But she didn't want to marry into the Rat CLan, so Robby could only be adopted. He's willing, and my father proposed that at least one male and one female of their future offspring should carry the Millet surname. The female agreed, so the decision to move the clan was settled."

"Ah! The Clan Leader really went too far."

"There was already some tension between my dad and the Clan Leader."

"Because of your mother?"

"Hmm."

"Let's not dwell on the past grievances of the older generation. By the way, did you know that Galian left the Female Cave and was taken in by the Clan Leader?"

"Is that so?" Sally was tightly monitored by Zulu over the past few days, barely permitted to leave the house, and he never spoke to her about outside matters, so she was unaware of this news.

Ashley nodded, "Although the Clan Leader didn't give her a title, he dotes on her very much, buying her fine cotton dresses from the Eastern District and even pearl necklaces. Previously, these were things only Rona had."

"Galian... Galian, that's right, it was Galian!" Sally's mind suddenly cleared as if the fog had lifted, revealing the clear blue sky.

"Was Galian there when Rona died?"
