Future Beast World: Becoming A Pampered Beauty-Chapter 188 - 132: Guess What Race the Baby Is?

In Liao Domain North City, at the largest and most established fabric shop.

A big spender had arrived today. The shop’s clerks were all bustling about, waiting on him hand and foot. Even the Shopkeeper came out personally to greet him, sending someone to bring out the precious fabrics that had been treasured for many years.

"Young Master, our fabrics are second to none for a hundred miles around. Take a look, and if there’s anything you like, I’ll have it all wrapped up for you!"

"Mm, I’m picking out some fabrics for my wife to have some clothes made. They need to be soft and comfortable."

"These fabrics are all excellent, very suitable for a female! The ones we sell the most of to the noble females of the great clans each year are these types: ice-silk chiffon, moon-glow brocade, cloud-mountain plain brocade..."

"Good. Bring them all over. I’ll take a look."

Si Ye stroked his chin, looking Sang Luo up and down. He picked out a bolt of vibrant red trousseau satin for her.

"This one’s good. It’ll make your complexion look rosy and healthy."

He had the Shopkeeper wrap it up.

"This bolt of swallow-gauze green brocade would also look beautiful on you."

"This light blue antique-fragrance satin feels nice, too. Wrap this one up as well."

"And this bolt of damask..."

Sang Luo was like an obedient little puppet, letting him pose her this way and that. In the end, Si Ye had selected several dozen bolts of beautiful and exquisite embroidered cloud satin in all sorts of patterns. If it weren’t for the fact that they couldn’t carry any more, he could have spent the entire day in the shop.

He had them all sent to the tailor shop.

Measurements were taken, and styles were chosen.

After some time, once the clothes were made, a dedicated person would deliver them back to the palace.

Coming out of the tailor shop, Sang Luo was immediately captivated by a candy figure vendor on the opposite side of the street.

Si Ye smiled and led her over by the hand.

The stall owner’s craftsmanship was quite good. The animals and figures he blew and pulled from malt sugar were remarkably lifelike.

"What kind would you like, customers?"

Sang Luo thought for a moment, then asked Si Ye, "What race do you think the baby will be?"

"My bloodline is stronger. It will probably take after one of my beast forms."

"Then we’ll have one of each!" Sang Luo said to the stall owner. "One Phoenix beast form, and one Bian beast form." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Si Ye hadn’t been in his clan’s territory for years, and his appearance had changed a bit from his younger days. His flamboyant red hair, in particular, made the stall owner hesitate to recognize him. It was only after hearing what Sang Luo said that he confirmed Si Ye’s identity.

The wrinkles on his face bloomed into a smile. "So it’s the Young Master! I’m just an outsider trying to support my family in this city. I’ve been here for so many years, all under the protection of the Bian Clan. Please, take these two little candy figures as a gift for the Young Master and his wife!"

"Haha, well, thank you then." Sang Luo shot Si Ye a smiling glance. "Your title is pretty useful."

Si Ye took the candy figures from the stall owner and brought one to her lips, his handsome peach-blossom eyes filled with amusement. "Is my title only worth two little candy figures? You underestimate me. Hurry up and eat; this will melt soon."

As he held it for her, Sang Luo took a small bite of the candy Phoenix.

’It’s sweet, but not cloying. It’s actually pretty good.’

Si Ye didn’t like sweets, so he gave both candy figures to her.

Sang Luo enjoyed slowly licking it as they walked.

Si Ye’s gaze drifted her way from time to time. He watched her rosy lips gently hold the malt sugar, licking it, melting the little candy Phoenix on the tip of her tongue, bite by bite.

’It was as if... she was devouring him, too, bite by bite...’

Si Ye’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and his fingertips twitched.

He stopped walking. Sang Luo, holding his hand, stopped as well. Just as she was about to turn and ask what he was doing, Si Ye reached out and cupped her face. His long, elegant fingers gently wiped away the sugar stain from the corner of her lips before he lowered his head and kissed her.

His tongue lightly traced the seam of her lips...

A light blush appeared on Sang Luo’s face.

In public, Si Ye didn’t dare to be too bold. He merely turned to shield her from view, gave her a light peck on the lips, then pulled away. He smiled at her and said, "The stall owner’s malt sugar is pretty sweet. I should buy some more from him another day to support his business."

Sang Luo, blushing, glanced at him and held out the other candy figure. "Then you eat this one."

"I don’t like sweets."

"..."

The two of them shopped from morning until afternoon, buying quite a few things, and Sang Luo’s ankles were starting to ache.

Not far away, a female was sitting on a white Tiger Beast Husband. She was attended by two other males, one carrying bags and the other offering her fruits and pastries. She looked utterly content.

An idea sparked in her mind. "Ah Ye, I still haven’t seen your Bian beast form."

"You want to see it?"

"Yes!"

How could Si Ye not know what she was thinking? He transformed into a colossal Divine Beast with two horns on its head, resembling a Tiger Beast. Its long tail was like that of a dragon or a flood serpent, devoid of fur and covered in a layer of hard, brownish-black scales wider than a man’s palm, which glinted with a cold light.

He lay on the ground, swished his thick, scaly tail, and as mist swirled around him, he said, "Get on."

"Ah Ye, you’re so considerate!" Sang Luo’s eyes lit up. She readily climbed onto his back, freeing her tired feet.

She hugged his neck and planted a kiss on his furry face. ’A Bian,’ she thought, ’is basically just a big cat if you round up.’

Si Ye’s pleasure was visible to the naked eye. Before transforming, he had given the Qiankun Ring to Sang Luo. Inside were mountains of Beast Crystals, Spirit Fruits, and Spiritual materials. Sang Luo lay on his back, leisurely eating snacks while her eyes scanned the dazzling, bustling market stalls.

Si Ye’s Bian beast form was enormous, taller than a two-story shop. Even on the wide main road, he took up nearly half of it. With every step, the ground faintly trembled.

Even with his immense pressure retracted, he still inspired awe and fear.

In the crowd, many people exclaimed in surprise that the Young Master had arrived.

Nearby passersby automatically made way for him.

Others saw Sang Luo on Si Ye’s back and began to speculate which noble female she might be.

The females who passed by were extremely envious. To think that someone had actually managed to capture the pure-blooded Young Master of the Bian Clan.

Some females looked at their own Beast Husbands with utter disdain. ’An Innate King Beast is so powerful and majestic! Our husbands can’t even compare to a single hair on the Young Master! If only we were the ones he was carrying.’

...

「In the city, a newly opened Treasure Pavilion was holding its grand opening.」

A large crowd had gathered around the shop.

Sang Luo immediately smelled the aura of treasure. She patted Si Ye’s head, and he instantly transformed back into his human form, carrying her as he walked over.

On the stage, the Beastman host was unveiling trays one by one.

Sang Luo’s gaze was immediately drawn to the prize in the very center: a complete piece of Cyan Sea Jade.

A rare, top-grade Spirit Jade.

’A pair of earrings made from this would look wonderful on Ah Ze.’

Si Ye followed her gaze and heard the Servant on stage announce, "For our grand opening celebration, the new shop has prepared a small event for our guests! Make any purchase in our store, or spend five Crystal Stones, to get a chance at our challenge! The third-place prize is a set of Luminous Colorful Instruments, the second-place prize is the Qiankun Profound Ruler, and the first-place prize is this extremely rare Cyan Sea Jade! Guests who fail the challenge will still receive a valuable participation prize..."

Many Beastmen in the audience had already tried the challenge, but only two had succeeded, winning two third-place prizes.

Sang Luo said, "I’ll give you fifty Beast Crystals. Help me win that Spirit Jade."

"Five is enough."

Si Ye tossed a few Beast Crystals to the Steward, leaped effortlessly onto the stage, and took the wooden bow.

His hands were exceptionally long and elegant. The Red Jade Ring on his thumb pressed against the bow’s grip, a scene as exquisite as a work of art.

His red hair was flamboyant, his figure tall and athletic. His handsome face held the defiant vigor of someone caught between boyhood and manhood. The moment he appeared, he captured the attention of all the Beastmen in the audience.

The females, in particular, gasped with excitement, their gazes burning with passion.

Si Ye paid them no mind, merely glancing towards Sang Luo in her corner off-stage, his eyes holding a hint of a smile.

Several tall, burly Beastmen carried over a large iron cage covered with a black cloth.

He turned his head and said,

"Let’s begin."
