Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System-Chapter 81 - 80 Shared Memory

"Alright, we'll stop here for today, we should head to the academy now,"

"Mommy, is that man...?" Manman looked in Ming Linyuan's direction.

"What man?" Sally followed her gaze.

She saw nothing.

Manman tilted her little head, and the tuft of hair on top swayed accordingly, "He left."

"Hmm," Sally didn't pay it much mind. Perhaps he was a guest at the inn.

...

Sally took Manman to the academy and exchanged a gray Crystal Core for a single use of the Teleportation Array to Primordial Beast Forest.

She had just left,

when Ming Linyuan arrived.

He declared his identity and, with the travel pass from the Beast Emperor, found out where Sally had gone.

He didn't need the Teleportation Array; he teleported directly to Primordial Beast Forest.

The Teleportation Array operator wasn't surprised to see him go without using the array.

This heir of the Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan had already stepped into the Spirit Realm a few days earlier.

The distance from the academy to Primordial Beast Forest was merely a thought away for someone of his realm.

Wandering aimlessly around Primordial Beast Forest, Sally had Manman in tow.

The System Map couldn't discern treasures of heaven and earth; they had to rely on their eyes to search.

"Had I known, I would've asked your dad where the Nine-Petal Lotus grows," Sally said to Manman, who was perched on her shoulder.

Manman also wanted to eat it, "Mhm, find Nine-Petal Lotus."

Sally suddenly stopped in her tracks when she spotted a stranger on the map.

After making sure he was a Beastman and not a Phantom Demon Beast, Sally approached him.

Ming Linyuan had changed his appearance again.

It was one of the Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan's innate talents to shift shapes. Unless someone had a higher innate talent than his, his true form was utterly indiscernible.

This time, he had transformed into a very ordinary Beastman hunting in Beast Forest.

"Excuse me," Sally called out to him.

Ming Linyuan immediately stopped, "What do you need?"

"I'm wondering if you know about the Nine-Petal Lotus?"

"The Nine-Petal Lotus... What do you want with it?" Ming Linyuan naturally knew what the Nine-Petal Lotus was. Considering her situation, where she might be in great need of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, his gaze swept over her belly.

On closer inspection, whether it was his suspicion or not, it seemed rounder than usual and somewhat mismatched with her slender waist.

Could it be...

Sally responded, "Someone in my family needs to recuperate. Do you know where it is?"

After speaking, Sally took out two Low-grade Crystal Coins, "I won't ask for free."

Ming Linyuan didn't accept the Crystal Coins and replied, "I can take you there; it's quite far from here."

"That's okay, I came here to find it. No distance is too far if I can find it," Sally said.

"Then follow me," Ming Linyuan decided she must be pregnant again.

Was it his?

His gaze shifted to Manman squatting on her shoulder, the spitting image of little Xiaomei.

Manman looked back at him, eyes filled with confusion, "Father, why has your face changed again?"

When Sally heard Manman's words, she looked at him: "..."

Ming Linyuan panicked inside, and his face showed a look of shock, "She, she can talk?"

"Stop pretending," Sally had no doubts about Manman's intuitive recognition of blood kin; plus, children don't lie.

Ming Linyuan froze, then finally filled with regret, he said, "Yanyan, I'm sorry."

"You haven't wronged me, you've wronged Manman." With Xiaomei having cleared up those entangled emotions of love, hate, sorrow, and resentment, her current self was very calm, uninfluenced by emotions, only weighing the pros and cons.

"Manman?" Ming Linyuan looked toward the little Phoenix Bird that was still curiously watching him.

Sally took two steps closer to him.

Seeing her approach, Ming Linyuan's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat.

"Manman is Ming Yuzhen."

Ming Linyuan was stunned.

It took him a while to react, "You're saying Xiaozhenzhen and Manman?"

Sally nodded, "Yes."

Suddenly, the way Ming Linyuan looked at Manman changed, filled with guilt, regret, and a hint of relief.

"How did she get to you?"

"I have my methods. But I want to know, why did you leave Manman, who had just hatched, alone in the room? Do you know what she went through?"

"I... I suddenly advanced to the Spirit Realm," Ming Linyuan also hated himself; he would rather remain at the Heaven Rank forever than lose his daughter.

Sally was somewhat surprised, "You've entered the Spirit Realm too?"

What's going on? Everyone related to her had advanced in rank!

No, that's not right, Zulu just... Remembering Zulu, a dull pain flashed through the bottom of her heart.

"I'd rather not advance for a lifetime." Ming Linyuan's sturdy shoulders, for a moment, became slumped and vulnerable.

Sally felt somewhat distressed, but she still told him, "You've indeed lost her once!"

Having said that, she grabbed his shoulder, leaned in close, and tiptoed to kiss his lips...

"Xiaomei, show him the video." Sally said to Xiaomei.

"Sharing memories with others requires payment of 100 points."

Any service not directly related to the child is very expensive, yes, but he needed to know, "Yes!"

Ming Linyuan was about to respond to Sally's initiative when suddenly, his mind was filled with unforgettable memories of this life...

That was his Xiaozhenzhen!

After the memory playback, Ming Linyuan looked like a different person.

He shed his disguise, revealing silver hair and a phoenix crown, silver eyes that were stern, wearing a black robe with silver phoenix patterns, intricate runes, a tall and muscular build, standing almost two heads taller than Sally.

"Galu Asbud Balru." There was a luxurious and noble tone in his voice, but the emotion that seeped through was one of deep hatred, wishing he could flay the skin and rend the flesh of the man who bore that name!

"He must have known you were advancing and took the opportunity to enter the Phoenix Palace and steal Manman's Innate Talent Soul Bead. For Manman, that's a trauma she can't erase."

"I will get Manman's Innate Talent Soul Bead back." Ming Linyuan lowered his head, overwhelmed with shame.

Manman flew onto his shoulder, gently pecking his hair, "Father, don't cry."

Hearing Manman's words, Sally looked at him with surprise... He was crying?!

A gray-black mist suddenly emanated from Ming Linyuan's body, but it was quickly reabsorbed.

He took Manman off his shoulder and handed her to Sally, "Take good care of her; I'm no longer worthy of having her."

Sally was silent.

Ming Linyuan's gaze fell on her stomach, "One last question, whose child is in your stomach?"

Sally was silent for a moment before responding, "I only have one womb, it doesn't preserve sperm. This child is Zong Silu's."

"Zong Silu... I know him, the youngest in the Spirit Realm on the Beast World Continent currently."

"When he was with me, he was still at the Heaven Rank."

"It seems he advanced after being with you. Our Yanyan, you're quite fortunate," Ming Linyuan looked at Sally, as if trying to etch her into his very bones, "If I don't return, let Manman inherit the Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan."

"What are you planning to do?" Sally's brow furrowed, "Don't do anything foolish."
