Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System-Chapter 76 - 75: The Fetus Who Doesn’t Like to Learn

"'Birth, aging, sickness, and death are all natural parts of life; the key is to live without too many regrets.' Elder Zong patted his shoulder, 'You can bring her home anytime you want.'

'Mm.'

'How's the investigation into the Primordial Beast Forest incident going? Was the examinee who went into the cave and killed the Phantom Demon Beast really Sally?'

'At the time, some examinees witnessed her using a long knife to kill the Phantom Demon Beast. And in the cave, aside from an unseen explosive weapon, there was the same knife technique. So, after ruling out all other possibilities, it had to be her.'

'I thought even with her talent, she was a frail female. I didn't expect her martial prowess to be so formidable. You might want to ask her about that weapon.'

'If she doesn't want to tell, I won't force her.'

'No need, no need, don't force her. Killing a Phantom Demon Beast is ultimately a male's job, it's not right to have her, a female, taking the lead.'

'I understand, I'll go to the lodge now.'

'Hold on, let me take another look at the Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan's fledgling; it's just too fascinating.'

'...'

'Can it really be my granddaughter?'

'...'

...

Sally felt that the fetus in her belly probably didn't like studying.

The reference books that Zong Silu brought back made her drowsy after looking at them for a bit, leading her to take a nap.

After waking up, she would first gnaw on a Nine-Petal Lotus root, then look at the reference books again, and go back to sleep... This way, she fell into a very regular cycle.

Seven days later, Sally yawned as she prepared to go to Divine Beast Academy for the exam to see how effective her last few days of intensive 'studying' were.

Zong Silu suggested, 'Why not have someone take the exam in your place?'

'Wouldn't that be cheating, would the academy agree?' Sally shook her head, 'I'd rather take the exam myself.'

'I'm worried you'll fall asleep again,' Zong Silu said with a smile.

'Tweet~' Manman chirped in agreement, clearly very supportive of what her dad had said.

Zong Silu smoothed her downy feathers, 'Good girl~ Do you want to go see Grandpa again today? He must have prepared something delicious for you.'

'Tweet~' Manman rubbed against his fingers.

Ever since Elder Zong had met Manman, he would always find reasons for them to return to the academy as long as they brought Manman with them.

Sally gently touched her stomach, which was now starting to show a little, 'Can you tell that I'm pregnant?'

'Can't tell.' Zong Silu said expectantly, even though it wasn't his own blood, he would raise it as if it was.

'Oh, that's good, I don't want to go to the exam with a big belly.' Sally yawned, 'You guys go out, I need to change my clothes.'

Zong Silu took Manman out of the room.

Just then, they saw Bai Kaixin coming up the stairs with an account book in his hand.

Zong Silu said, 'Give it to me.'

If just looking at reference books made her sleepy, checking the accounts would mean no need for an exam today.

Bai Kaixin knew that Zong Silu was Sally's Beast Husband. Although they hadn't officially made it public, the two spent nearly every day together, especially at night when they made noises that stirred primal urges.

Lately, he'd avoid coming to the backyard whenever possible.

It was just too frustrating!

'Okay.' Bai Kaixin looked at Manman on his shoulder, 'Should I get a cage to keep it in?'

'A cage?' Zong Silu turned his head towards Manman.

Immediately, Manman became angry, spitting a fireball at Bai Kaixin.

Bai Kaixin had thought she was just an ordinary Avian fledgling, not realizing that she was in the juvenile form of the Avian Clan and possessed Fire Element talent. He hurriedly dodged, then watched the fireball hit the banister on the stairs, melting a section!

If that had hit him, he'd likely be in the embrace of the Beast God by now.

'Beast God, what kind of creature is this!'"

Bai Kaixin looked at Manman with horror and, seeing her about to open her mouth again, turned and ran.

Zong Silu: "...the ledger."

Bai Kaixin used her Wind Elemental Power to wrap the ledger and tossed it to Zong Silu, then ran off like a wisp of smoke.

"Don't be naughty," Zong Silu tapped Manman's pale yellow tender beak.

Manman immediately fluffed up her feathers and comfortably squatted down, cooing softly.

Zong Silu opened the ledger and began flipping through it page by page...

Sally changed into an exquisitely made Ruijin Long Skirt, a gift from Zong Silu.

A warm pink tinged with golden hues, embroidered with auspicious clouds and floral patterns, the hem of the skirt styled like lotus leaves, was quite beautiful. Stitched with gold thread and lined with light blue soft satin, it was cool and comfortable against the skin.

Originally, the dress also came with a gold belt studded with jade, which accentuated the slender waist. However, now that she was pregnant, she did not wear it.

Her snow-white, smooth hair was pulled back with a gold hairpin studded with red crystals, arranged in a simple and neat bun. This revealed her slender and pure white neck, as well as her whole face, flawless and stunningly beautiful.

As the door opened, Zong Silu's gaze shifted from the ledger to her, and then he froze.

Sally smiled warmly and gracefully, "What's wrong, don't you like the clothes you bought?"

Zong Silu's face suddenly turned red, "No, you look very pretty in them."

"Hehe, I didn't wear the belt, so it might look a bit less striking. But given the circumstances, there's nothing I can do."

"There's no need to wear it; it was my oversight when purchasing," Zong Silu admitted.

"It's quite nice." Sally looked at him, still in his school uniform, which didn't quite match her outfit, "Why don't you change as well?"

"I don't need to, I have to proctor exams today. There are more than two thousand candidates and the teachers are overwhelmed, so some of the senior students were asked to help, and I'm one of them."

"Oh." Sally reached over his shoulder and grabbed Manman.

The little guy, who was initially asleep, immediately woke up.

Upon seeing it was her, he ingratiatingly cooed, "Coo, coo, coo~"

Sally frowned, "I can't understand this either."

Suddenly, she remembered Xiaohao, who couldn't speak initially either but could after eating a Beast Nurturing Pill and advancing to Heaven Rank.

"Hold on, I'll go get something." Sally turned back and went into the house.

[Xiaomei, can Manman use a Beast Nurturing Pill?]

[Of course, Host. It's also recommended to pair it with a True Fire Pill, which will benefit the improvement of her Fire Element Secret Technique.]

[True Fire Pill? How many points does it cost?]

[1 point.]

[Buy it!]

When Sally emerged from the room, she found Manman had fallen into a deep sleep.

But in Zong Silu's eyes, Manman was sleeping incredibly deep because her talent was changing! It seemed as if she was about to break through Quasi-Heaven Rank and enter True Heaven Rank.

"I fed her something good; when she wakes up, she'll be able to talk." Sally was truly vexed by her persistent chirping over the past few days.

"What good thing?" Zong Silu took the little one from her hands, his eyes full of concern.

"Would I harm her? I must go." Sally did not want to discuss the System with anyone.

Perhaps some things appear abruptly in her hands, somewhat mysterious, as if without provenance. But she had no obligation to solve their puzzles.

Besides, as a woman, being a little mysterious adds to the allure and charm!

On her way to the Divine Beast Academy, Sally crammed through the reference books at the last minute.

Zong Silu couldn't bear to watch any longer, "Stop reading, you just need to show up. The academy has already accepted you."

"Huh?" Sally was surprised, "I didn't know that."

"I took care of your admission procedures for you."

"Tch~" Sally casually tossed the reference book to him, "You could have said so earlier, my eyes were getting sore."
