Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 393 - 392: Father Cannot Lay a Hand on It

Si Shuo turned her back to Ji Liang and clung to Gong You, laughing. "So, Gong You, you have to keep me well-fed! That means a never-ending supply of small fish."

’Now that Gong You has a huge Sea Area, he can raise tons of little silver fish. He’ll have to make his daily tribute... Ahem, she was being serious, of course!’

Gong You adored it when she acted spoiled and playfully demanded small fish. He chuckled, leaning close to her ear. "Even if I starve, I’ll make sure to feed my dear."

Si Shuo grinned, pressing her lips together. She held out her hand, demanding a few fish right then and there as a show of his devotion.

Ji Liang sighed silently. ’Don’t kitties usually like to eat mice? I’ve never seen her crave them. I could catch plenty.’

Si Shuo glanced at Ji Liang, her eyes darting thoughtfully. "Ji Liang, can you lend your superpower to Gong You? That way, we won’t have to make the arduous journey to the Far North. We can just teleport there directly!"

"It would be better for the cubs to be born in their homeland. Whether we’re by the sea here or over there, it doesn’t make much of a difference—we’ll have to teleport regardless."

’Most importantly, the Far North has so much delicious fish and shrimp. It’s a paradise for a Cat Beastman!’

Ji Liang had never lent out his superpower like this before. He nodded and smiled. "Hiss, we can give it a try."

He placed his hand on Gong You’s shoulder, and a stream of black light flowed from his palm into Gong You’s body. It drained nearly all of his Spiritual Power, leaving his face slightly pale. He chuckled softly, "Gong You, see if this is enough Spiritual Power to teleport you to the Far North."

Gong You smiled, nodded his thanks, and shot a deep look at Si Shuo. He then closed his eyes, silently retracing his journey from his homeland. It was as if time was rewinding; he could hear the wind whistling past his ears, the rustle of trees, the crash of waves, and the chirping of birds.

Gradually, all the sounds faded, leaving only the bone-chilling wind he knew so well, swirling around him. Occasionally, the roar of a Fierce Beast would echo in the distance.

Gong You’s eyes snapped open to a world of ice and snow. It was the very spot where he usually entered the sea. ’So, it actually worked?’

His face lit up with joy, and he quickly sent a note to Si Shuo. "My dear, I’ve made it to the Far North!"

Moments after he sent the note, Si Shuo appeared beside him, bundled up like a ball. Gong You immediately pulled her into an embrace, nuzzling her neck with joyous contentment. "My sweet girl, this is my homeland. I was born and raised here. And our cubs will be born here, too..."

Si Shuo hummed in agreement, taking a deep breath of the crisp, cold air. It was filled with the sweet scent she loved most. Even Gong You’s own scent was intoxicating to her.

Seeing her sniffing at him, Gong You held her tight with a look of fond satisfaction. "It’s a good thing I’m a Fish Beast. Since my dear is a Cat Beast, you’ll never grow tired of me."

Si Shuo grinned, nodding eagerly. "Yes, yes, you’re right! I like you way too much. So you’d better protect yourself, or I might get excited and chew you to the bone!"

Gong You swept her up into his arms and ran toward his cave. As a Big Fish Beast, the overlord of the Far North, his scent still lingered in and around the cave even after being away for over a year. Ordinary Beastmen and Wild Beasts wouldn’t dare approach.

White and blue were the only colors in this world, pure and pristine. Even the Wild Beasts and Beastmen of this land were mostly white.

Si Shuo felt her restless heart being cleansed, and she couldn’t help but feel a profound sense of awe and a powerful love for life and the world.

’A place like this would naturally nurture a pure soul. Her Gong You had grown up here, and it was from here that he had rushed to her side!’

Gong You set Si Shuo down at the entrance. He strained to move aside the giant boulder blocking the way, revealing a spacious cavern. After cleaning it out with a Dust Cleaning Talisman, he took her hand and led her inside.

The cave’s furnishings were quite simple. The main chamber held a set of a stone table and chairs. A stone-ringed area near the entrance served as a cooking stove. One room contained a stone bed covered with Beast Skins and a stone cabinet for storing food. The other room was empty, save for a single giant boulder.

"Gong You, I’ve never heard you mention your family. Did you always live here alone?" Si Shuo asked curiously. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Yes. We Blue Whales are solitary. Usually, after our Father raises us, we leave to live on our own. I haven’t seen my Father since I left," Gong You said with a smile. "He probably went ashore to find a Mother."

Si Shuo pressed her lips together, looking down at her round belly. "Gong You, then... after our cubs are born, will we have to raise them only to send them away, like all Blue Whale Beastmen do?"

"If we keep them with us, will they lose their fighting spirit and the advantages that come with being a Big Fish Beast?"

"I still remember how handsome and powerful you were when I first met you! I hope our cubs will be just like you, able to choose a partner they love, who loves them in return..."

Gong You smiled, pulling her into his embrace. "My dear, we males are selfish creatures. We want a female to bear our cubs, but that’s like an inherited mission, a duty we have as Beastmen. It’s an obsession, an unavoidable part of life like birth, old age, sickness, and death. But it is just an obsession. When compared to cubs, a mate is what we pursue our entire lives."

"That’s why I can understand my Father and Mother."

"However, our situation is different. We have the means to raise our cubs. Besides, the training we can give them will be just as good as the experience they’d gain fumbling through the wild, making countless mistakes on their own."

"What’s more, Ji Liang, Tuanzi, and even Kunzi can teleport us to the forest for training anytime they want. And besides, there are plenty of other sea-based Beastmen in Beast City."

Si Shuo smiled and nodded. "That’s right. Gong You, you also have your Sea Area Ability. We can raise the cubs in there until they learn to shift into their human forms."

Just as she spoke, the other males and the cubs teleported over. Everyone was filled with wonder and delight at the world of ice and snow. After setting up an Array, they began to frolic and run all around.

Tuanzi and Yuanyuan in particular changed into their Iron-eating Beast forms and rolled around on the ground, letting out happy bleats of laughter.

Gong You took Si Shuo’s hand, rubbing it gently. "My dear, how about I take you for a swim underwater? Don’t worry, it’s freezing down there, but you won’t feel cold with me around."

Si Shuo hummed, her spirits soaring. "I want to see the schools of Silverfish!"

"Okay, I’ll catch lots of Silverfish for you," Gong You agreed with a smiling nod.

The other cubs watched with envy. Yuanyuan turned and tugged on Wei Ce’s clothes. "Father, can we also turn into Blue Whales and catch Silverfish underwater?"

Wei Ce chuckled and pinched her nose. "My dear cub, this is Father Gong You’s territory. No matter how powerful your fathers are, we have to lie low here. We’re lucky just to be allowed to stay, and you’re already after Father Gong You’s food?"

"The most you can do is shamelessly ask for some after he’s caught them. In any case, your Father can’t get involved. I wouldn’t dare."
