88. A Lot of Fallen Beasts
 

After finding Ian and company, Chris used the military emergency communication channel to contact the people in the capital star. He conveyed the situation on the Fallen Beast Planet, but he himself did not immediately go back.
 
He fell ill.
 
Beastmen seldom fell ill, but Chris was not young after all. In addition to having gone through a big upset, he had also stayed strong for quite a long time. Naturally, he could not stand it. After everything was settled, he fell ill.
 
At first he only felt very tired, but he soon began to ache all over. At the same time, some of his old injuries were also triggered off, inducing a low fever.
 
Chris rarely fell ill, but although he was ill now, he did not feel uncomfortable. After all, Ian was always at his side, taking care of him.
 
Such an experience of being taken care of was very rare for him. Because as a beastman, he had always taken care of Ian instead of Ian taking care of him.
 
Talk about taking care of Ian . . . . He had been so busy he had not had much time to take care of Ian, and it had been a long time since they had spent time together without being disturbed.
 
"I stewed some soup. You eat it, okay." Ian came in from the outside with a bowl of fish soup on his hand. "I don't know what fish this is, but it’s been tested and has very good nutrients. You can eat more."
 
Seeing Ian, Chris smiled and suddenly remembered the days when they first knew each other. At that time, they disguised themselves and pretended to be a pair of ordinary partners. Ian would cook for him then, but later . . . .
 
Ian’s cooking skills could not compare with the robots’, and they were also very busy. Gradually, Ian stopped doing it. Today, finally, he could once again eat a love meal that Ian made personally.
 
The fish soup did not smell good at all, but it was cooked personally by his own sub-beastman . . . . Chris raised the bowl with both hands and drank a big mouthful of soup. Then he took a pair of chopsticks and ate the fish meat as he drank the soup.
 
Sub-beastmen ate fish very carefully for fear that they would get a fish bone stuck in their throats, but beastmen certainly didn’t have to be so careful when eating fish. The fish used by Ian for stewing the soup was not big, and its thorns were thin and soft. Chris chewed the fish directly and then swallowed it down into his stomach.
 
Chris ate with gusto, making another being in the room envious. A little snake slithered to the front of Chris and abruptly turned into a white, fat baby, who then stared at Chris impatiently, eyes full of thirst for the fish soup.
 
Chris did not feel bored when he was recuperating. Besides having Ian to keep him company, there was also another reason. His grandson always accompanied him while he was recuperating.
 
He could not say how close he was to his son, but his love toward his grandson was beyond words. Just seeing his grandson already made him thoroughly happy. As soon as he thought of his other grandson in Shu Shu’s belly, his mood was even better.
 
He previously thought that their imperial family was going to be a thing of the past. He did not expect that they now got two children all at once.
 
"Xiao Bao also wants to drink?" Chris smiled at Xiao Bao. He took a spoonful of soup and blew it to cool before feeding it to the baby. The baby opened his mouth wide and gulped down a mouthful of soup. After that, he continued to stare at Chris impatiently like before.
 
When Shu Shu and Edgar came over, the child had not only drunk the fish soup but also eaten a lot of other things. He was lying supine on the bed while stroking his own belly; his hands and feet were fleshy, and his gurgles were especially cute.
 
"Xiao Bao!" Shu Shu liked children very much. Seeing the baby, he rushed up to hug him and give him a few kisses. Xiao Bao hugged Shu Shu back and also kissed Shu Shu a few times and even called "mama"—this child was still small and unable to talk yet, but he could utter some simple pronunciation now.
 
"Xiao Bao can already talk! You’re really amazing!" Shu Shu, holding the child, gave the child a few more kisses.
 
The little beastman was well-fed and not prone to crying. He was not impatient at all as he was caught and kissed by Shu Shu. On the contrary, he gave a gurgle of laughter and kissed Shu Shu back.
 
Edgar, who came in later, was still snake-shaped and unable to do anything and thus felt that it was extremely unsightly. "Shu Shu, don't spoil the little beastman like this."
 
"How do I spoil him?" Shu Shu glanced at Edgar, unconvinced. He only kissed and hugged his own child, that’s all.
 
"Edgar, you can't be so harsh on children." Ian said. "Children must be taught well. If they do something wrong, you can't be excessively tolerant of them, but you also can't be cold to them. I always disapprove of many of the beastmen's parenting methods." Baby Xiao Bao was so cute, ah! He also wanted to hold him for a while!
 
Edgar could only turn his gaze toward his father. He remembered that when he was a child, his father often said that little beastmen should not be pampered so they could toughen up. It might be assumed that his father was endorsing his parenting philosophy.
 
As a result . . . . Chris coughed twice. "The child’s still young. Wait until he’s three years old before training him properly. We’ll just throw him into the military camp to learn through experience for a few days."
 
Edgar: ". . ." Beastmen started to form memories early, and so he had memories from when he was very young. At that time, Chris clearly didn’t say so!
 
“Going to the military camp when he’s three years old?” Shu Shu opened his eyes wide in astonishment. He wanted to refute, but he suddenly thought of the growth speed of beastmen, which seemed to be very different from that of humans.
 
Maybe beastmen could really go to the military camp when they were still very young . . . . Come to think about it, ordinary hamsters generally lived for less than three years.
 
"A three-year-old beastman can already do a lot of things." Ian looked at Shu Shu and smiled. "Once I return to the capital star, I’ll send you the videos taken when Edgar was three years old along with other videos . . . ."
 
“Okay." Shu Shu nodded and suddenly remembered something. "Are you going to go back? "
 
“We’ll go back in a few days." Ian nodded. Edgar presently was still a fallen beast and could not go back to the capital star, but he and Chris had to go back. After all, they still had a lot of work that needed to be done.
 
Anyway, they had already decided. Otherwise, it would not take long before they became loafers!
 
Chris and Ian really left after a few days, but Shu Shu and Edgar stayed on the Fallen Beast Planet. At the same time, the Imperial Fleet also left behind several warships on the Fallen Beast Planet.
 
In the capital star, many people who were very busy with their jobs would often had a notion to find a remote and isolated planet where they could be far from the Internet and live quietly all alone for a while. Let them live that way for a few days, and they could still stand it. However, if you let them live a little longer, they absolutely wouldn’t be able to stand it.
 
How could people who were accustomed to the Internet bear to live without it? 

The crown prince and the crown princess had to live on the Fallen Beast Planet for quite a long time. Many people thought that this was a very painful thing. In reality, whether it was Edgar or Shu Shu, they both adapted well to this kind of life.
 
Their previous living conditions were quite hard and really not very convenient, but now that there was the Imperial Fleet, their lives were practically very comfortable.
 
Cultivate, sleep, look after the child, and a day of hard work would pass in the twinkling of an eye. As for going online . . . as long as there was a tablet to download some TV dramas, Shu Shu now could watch those things until the end of time. He totally didn’t care about having no star network.

Over time, Edgar's strength recovered more and more. At the same time, a piece of news spread on the Fallen Beast Planet—the crown prince and the crown princess of the Beastman Empire were on the Fallen Beast Planet, and the crown princess could help the fallen beasts restore their beast cores!
 
The Fallen Beast Planet was very large. At first, this matter was only known to the fallen beasts in the vicinity of Edgar and company, but slowly, the news began to spread out, and then more and more fallen beasts knew. On top of that, all the fallen beasts who knew the news were coming to the place where Edgar and company were located.
 
Which fallen beast did not want to become a beastman again?
 
Even those fallen beasts whose minds were already not so clear also wanted to become beastmen again.
 
Compared with the total population of the Beastman Empire, the number of beastmen who became fallen beasts every year in the Beastman Empire was actually not many. But because the current population of the Beastman Empire was very many, there were at least seven or eight hundred beastmen. Oftentimes, the number even reached a thousand or two. In this way, the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet were getting more and more.
 
When Reynolds had not yet arrived on the Fallen Beast Planet, the fallen beasts had been killing each other. But in the past thirty years, such things had rarely been seen.
 
There were nearly thirty thousand fallen beasts who lived on the Fallen Beast Planet nowadays. At present, these fallen beasts basically already knew about Edgar and Shu Shu.
   
In an area very, very far away from Edgar and company, a slightly-built hyena fallen beast traveled through the jungle at full speed and finally arrived in front of some mounds hidden inside the forest.
 
"Mike, what happened outside?" A huge snake slithered out of a mound and turned his gaze toward the hyena as he used his tail to hold a twig and write on the ground. They lived in the forest and seldom came in contact with the outside world. They basically relied on the hyena to get the news . . . . Of course, there was actually no important news on the Fallen Beast Planet.
 
The hyena made some barks, and then, worried that his explanation was unclear, he eventually started to write on the ground with his claws and quickly wrote down everything that happened outside clearly.
 
A good deal of fallen beasts came out one after another from the surrounding mounds. There were many kinds of fallen beasts, but the most in number among them were undoubtedly snakes. They all saw the words written by the hyena and, from time to time, made some low roars or flicked their tongues. Someone could actually help the fallen beasts restore their beast cores? This was real?
 
"Everyone’s rushing over there. I have to go too." The hyena wrote again.
 
The fallen beasts who came out of the mounds looked at each other in surprise, and their eyes were full of excitement. They also wanted to go; they wanted to repair their beast cores and become beastmen again!
 
The huge snake, who was the very first to come out from the mound, suddenly swatted a tree on the side with his tail, breaking the tree directly as well as making the excited fallen beasts on the scene quieten down.
 
"Don't forget why we’d stay here. Do you think they’ll really help us restore our beast cores?" The words the huge snake wrote down silenced the rest of the fallen beasts on the scene.
 
Yeah, even though other fallen beasts had the opportunity to become beastmen again, they did not. How could those people be willing to spend  their efforts on a group of criminals?
 
However, should they continue to hide here and wait for the day they went crazy or died just because of this?
 
The eyes of these fallen beasts were full of unwillingness. That snake beastman once again wrote, "Let's go take a look at the situation first and put off the discussion until later."
 
There were countless fallen beasts gathering near the area where Edgar and company lived, but there were only Reynolds and his men to maintain order as well as the Imperial Fleet to intimidate. This actually didn’t affect Shu Shu at all.
 
But even so, Shu Shu still felt that the pressure was quite big.
 
With so many fallen beasts, even if he had enough eggshells, restoring one a day meant that it would take ten years to finish the whole lot!
 
Shu Shu suddenly regretted it very much. He regretted not keeping his mouth shut and saying that he could restore the beast core as soon as he met Reynolds and others . . . . If he had known earlier that there were so many fallen beasts, he certainly wouldn’t have made such irresponsible remarks!
 
But it was already too late . . . .
 
Shu Shu was very distressed, and Edgar could sense his mood. After thinking about it, he briefed his subordinates to go prepare a candlelight dinner.
 
Shu Shu was very easy to coax. Just give him something delicious, and he would cheer up right away.

87. The Lively Star Network
 

These days, the star network had been very lively. This liveliness began from the time when Shu Shu was attacked by Donald, and the whole thing was broadcasted live on the star network.
 
At first, the people of the Beastman Empire watched the abnormal live broadcast and found out that the imperial family got a new member. Then the emperor sent out countless red envelopes, which set off a national celebration . . . . While everyone was still sharing this joy, the empress was actually kidnapped!
 
Although the Beastman Empire had already implemented a constitutional monarchy since long ago, but the imperial family still held considerable power and was also the richest family in the Empire. Consequently, there were quite a lot of people who took shots at the imperial family and even tried to kidnap the imperial family. No one had ever succeeded though. Yet this time, someone succeeded and even kidnapped the empress.
 
Because the person who planned this was Jonathan, the sub-beastman younger brother of His Imperial Majesty the Emperor of the Beastman Empire.
 
Chris, the emperor, had absolutely nothing to say to Jonathan. His parents had adopted and taken great care of Jonathan. For a long time now, there was no end of people who envied Jonathan.
 
As a result, after Jonathan had failed in his attempt to plot against the crown princess’ life, he actually kidnapped Ian and the unborn little prince! He was simply an ungrateful wretch!
 
In today's era when information flow was particularly fast, many things could not be covered up. The matter of Jonathan smearing Edgar’s name as well as dispatching Donald to attack the crown princess had already been revealed. After Ian was kidnapped, the imperial family simply didn’t cover it up. On the contrary, the ins and outs of this matter were explained, and the video of Jonathan kidnapping Ian was uploaded on the star network.
 
Because of this, Jonathan had become someone whom everyone hated. People had no time to pay attention to the unborn little prince; rather, they started to pay attention to this matter.
 
Jonathan was already married to the Duke of Mund. They had a child together and always looked very loving in front of the media. As it turned out, Jonathan was actually still thinking of the emperor and even came up with evil schemes for the crown prince and the crown princess in addition to kidnapping the empress . . . .
 
"For those who think that he acted against the imperial family only because of his feelings, I can only say that you’re too naive. He clearly wants to eliminate the imperial family at one stroke and then ascend the throne himself . . . . FYI, he’s also one of the heirs to the throne."
 
“That’s right. If it weren’t for his plot falling through and standing exposed, His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince would be dead already! Afterwards, won’t the imperial family fall into his hands?"
 
"This man’s too malicious! I really regret that I used to consider him as an example!"
 
. . . . .

At that time, many people on the star network analyzed Jonathan's motives while waiting for Emperor Chris to rescue the empress . . . . Everyone was full of confidence in the imperial family and felt that the empress would definitely be rescued.
 
As a result, when many people were keeping watch on the star network, waiting for the empress to be rescued, they actually heard the news of the empress’ disappearance. At the same time, the imperial family’s huge reward was also hung on the star network.
 
Anyone who provided valuable clues could get a lot of money.
 
After this news arrived, many people despaired, but there were a lot more who began to look for Empress Ian, hoping to get a huge reward that Chris had promised.
 
However, they caught plenty of star pirates, but no one found Ian. This was already bad enough, and then some people realized . . . . Crown Prince Edgar and the crown princess had not appeared for a very long time!
 
The empress was kidnapped, and the emperor led the imperial fleet to chase after people. Yet the crown prince and the crown princess had actually never appeared under these circumstances. What did this mean?
 
Did the crown prince and the crown princess . . . have an accident?
 
The crown prince and the crown princess indeed had an accident. They secretly hid in the spaceship that Jonathan took in order to rescue the empress and the child. Now, they were all missing!
 
Besides Chris, the emperor, the life or death of the rest of the imperial family was unforeseeable. The star network instantly exploded. Many netizens began to pray for blessings for the imperial family as countless people closely followed the search and rescue progress. Unfortunately, the news that arrived from the front line was only bad news without any good one.
 
The imperial family’s private spaceship had exploded in the starry sky!
   
The spaceship had been completely blown out; could the empress and company survive?
 
"That Jonathan’s really despicable!"
   
"The little prince’s still an egg, and he disappeared in the stars. It's so tragic . . ."
 
"His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince must be fine, ah! There’re still the crown princess and the empress. They’re surely fine . . . "
 
. . . . . .

Recently, the atmosphere on the star network had been very heavy. People had no time to pay attention to entertainment. Some funny movies and TV dramas were even directly put on the shelf or taken down from the shelf . . . .
 
At this time, an item of news suddenly appeared on the star network—"News from the Imperial Fleet: The empress, the crown prince, and his family have been found!"
 
The empress and company had been found? People delightedly opened the news and then saw a video inside.
 
The spokesperson of the imperial family first explained briefly that Chris had found the empress and company on the Fallen Beast Planet and also mentioned that the little prince had already hatched. Then, with a sorrowful face, he stated that although no one died, but when they were in the middle of the universe, Crown Prince Edgar shattered his beast core and became a fallen beast in order to protect the empress and company.
 
What? The crown prince actually became a fallen beast? Everyone who saw this video was stunned, especially those young people who worshiped or liked the crown prince. They, more than anyone, felt it was unacceptable.
 
The crown prince was so powerful; how could he become a fallen beast?
 
At this moment, the imperial family’s spokesperson suddenly spoke again after a slight pause, "However, everyone doesn't need to worry. The crown princess has discovered a method to restore the beast core of the fallen beasts. Although this method still has some flaws, but it has been determined to be feasible. I believe that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince will definitely be able to recover soon."
 
What did this man say? The crown princess came up with a method to restore the beast core of the fallen beasts? This was a joke, right?
 
People who heard the spokesperson's speech were not particularly convinced that this matter was true. They suspected that they had misheard the man. At this moment, in the video, the imperial family’s spokesperson disappeared. Then the video showed some scenes on the Fallen Beast Planet, including the one where the emperor and the empress came out and said a few words.
 
They saw General Reynolds, who became a fallen beast thirty years ago. Now that his beast core had been restored, he became a beastman again and still looked very powerful and handsome.
 
They saw several former fallen beasts, whose beast cores had been restored but were still not very stable, living in the desert and playing with the little prince. In the end, they often became a joke because they could not control their body shapes just like the little prince.
 
They also saw the crown prince who had become a fallen beast talking with the crown princess gently and softly. The crown princess cleaned the crown prince’s body with water and even fed the crown prince himself.
 
Furthermore, they saw that brilliant and famous doctor chase after the crown princess, wanting to learn all kinds of knowledge from him. Meanwhile, the crown princess used his innate skill to heal people’s wounds in the blink of an eye.
 
This video was not meticulously shot, and there was no particularly moving scene in it, yet many people cried watching it. Even they themselves did not know why they would cry.
 
"Mr. Reynolds used to be my idol. It’s really great that he has recovered!"
 
"The little prince’s so cute! He’s atavistic just like His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince. He must be very strong after he grows up!"
 
"The crown princess is awesome!
 
"The interaction between the crown princess and His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince is so warm. His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince has become a fallen beast and looks quite scary, yet the crown princess actually doesn’t care about it . . ."
 
. . . . . .

There were all sorts of evaluations on the star network. The leopard Bauer’s sub-beastman saw this video and burst into tears.
 
He was a very ordinary sub-beastman. In addition to looking unattractive, he was also quite fat, and his health was not so good either. Yet Bauer had always been very good to him. Unfortunately, at the time when he felt very blessed, they ran into danger, and Bauer became a fallen beast.
 
After Bauer was sent to the Fallen Beast Planet, his life was very bad. Not to mention that he had no money to send Bauer things, even to keep himself and his children afloat was already very difficult. Only when he finally found a welfare job did his life stabilize.
 
But even then, he still refused the bachelor beastmen who wanted to marry him.
 
Many people advised him to find another beastman to live with, but he did not want to. Bauer only became a fallen beast in order to save him and the children. He did not want to be with another beastman just for a living.
 
Sometimes he was also very confused; he did not know if his choice was right or wrong in the end. But when he saw Bauer in the video, loudly saying that he missed him and the children, he suddenly felt that his persistence was correct after all.
 
Besides Bauer, Jesse’s parents also saw Jesse.
 
Jesse was a doctor, and so were his parents. Their family lived on a planet near the capital star. They had a pretty big family clinic, and their lives were very good. It was unfortunate that some time later, there was a sub-beastman who died in their clinic. Afterwards, that sub-beastman's partner actually brought some explosives and wanted to die together with them . . . . Jesse was the casualty at that time.
 
They always thought that their son had already died. They did not expect that he was actually still alive and had even recovered now.
 
This couple also cried tears of joy.
 
At the same time, there were even more people who were full of hopes and expectations.
 
"My father’s a soldier. He became a fallen beast. Can he still return to our side?"
 
"My son had an accident and got his beast core shattered when he’s a child. He’s still very small when he’s sent to the Fallen Beast Planet. Can he come back?"
 
"I really miss my younger brother. Does he live well on the Fallen Beast Planet?"
 
. . . . . .

All the netizens were discussing the Fallen Beast Planet. Someone even directly organized an adventure team, intending to go there. At the same time, Shu Shu, the crown princess, was also popular.
 
A lot of people who had previously spoken badly of Shu Shu were apologizing to Shu Shu on the star network even though Shu Shu could not see it at all.
 
Meanwhile on the Fallen Beast Planet, the men of the Imperial Fleet were building a house.
 
It would take a while for Edgar to recover. Moreover, the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet needed to be sorted out slowly and one by one. Under these circumstances, they might have to stay on the Fallen Beast Planet for a long time. So it was absolutely necessary to build a house.
 
The Fallen Beast Planet was more remote than the Gass Planet. Don’t say being connected to the star network, it did not even have its own internal network. Shu Shu naturally knew nothing at all about things on the star network. Right now, he was in high spirits and set on building his dream house while living a very, very spoiled life raising the unborn egg.
 
When he was a hamster kept by humans, he did not need to worry about anything. He could eat and sleep and eat and sleep over and over again. Still, he would unavoidably be grabbed to play by the owner, and he needed to please the owner. But now, not only could he eat and sleep and eat and sleep, but there were also robots to dance for him and fallen beasts to perform for him!
 
This was definitely the life he dreamed of.

86. The Amazing Shu Shu


The Fallen Beast Planet was sparsely populated and had always been very quiet. The desert zone was even more so; very few living animals moved around in this area. Yet recently, a certain border of the desert of the Fallen Beast Planet had been very lively, and a lot of fallen beasts had gathered here. 
 
Today, this place was even livelier.
 
The spaceships that had landed in the distant place all soared, flying toward this side of the desert, and around them, there were still some aircraft escorts. The entire procession could be said to be so grandiose it hid the sky and covered the earth, and the sound of activity was extremely loud.
 
A few days ago, several fallen beast colonies nearby already got the news that Reynolds, who was regarded as the king by the fallen beasts, was staying at that barren place whose sole merit was its safety.
 
Now that they saw so many spaceships flying towards the desert, all of them were endlessly surprised.
 
"It’s still not the time for the delivery men to come. Why’re there spaceships coming?"
 
"A lot of spaceships! And they’re all big spaceships!"
 
"Are they coming to find Reynolds?"
 
"They should be. Before Mr. Reynolds came here, he was an important general!"
 
They were discussing it incessantly when suddenly, someone said, "Those spaceships seem to be imperial family’s!"
 
After this man said so, everyone realized that there were imperial family’s emblems on those spaceships.
 
Why would the imperial family’s spaceships appear here? Were there things on the Fallen Beast Planet that could make the imperial family pay attention to this planet? Or . . . . It was totally impossible for a fallen beast to appear in the imperial family, right?
 
"Mr. Reynolds and His Imperial Majesty the Emperor are friends. Maybe His Imperial Majesty the Emperor came to find Reynolds." Someone explained.

The rest of the fallen beast in the colonies deeply believed so, and one fallen beast said, "How about we go there to take a look?" 
 
The fallen beasts lived a single’s life. Aside from preparing their own food, they hardly needed to do anything else, and they had lots of free time on weekdays. So now, after making a decision, they simply ran to the desert.
 
Meanwhile, in the desert, the spaceships had landed. As soon as they were parked securely, aircraft, mechs, and so on all flew down from the spaceships. In addition, many beastmen dressed in military uniforms of the Imperial Fleet neatly came down from the spaceships.
 
Everything was done neatly and tidily and looked very imposing. It was simply a variety of scenes that would only appear in movies.
 
Edgar and Shu Shu had been waiting at the dugout entrance, and Reynolds' subordinates were also there. They naturally caught sight of this scene.
 
When these fallen beasts came to the Fallen Beast Planet, it was either long ago or a few years ago. They could not recognize Edgar’s beast form and did not know Shu Shu. But basically, they all knew Ian, the empress, and they had already known the identity of Edgar and company.
 
However, although they knew the identity of Edgar and company, but at the very beginning, everyone had been shocked by Shu Shu, who could help the fallen beasts restore their beast cores, and so they did not care about this identity thing.
 
Later, they spent a long time with Shu Shu and company and found that they did not put on airs at all. And so these fallen beasts soon forgot about it.
 
They could not discern anything else beyond the fact that the crown prince in his beast form was very strong. As for the empress and the crown princess . . . they did not put on airs and looked like ordinary people, ah!
 
Although they generally kept trying to please Shu Shu and company, but it was absolutely not because of the identity of Shu Shu and company. It was only now that they profoundly felt the difference between their standing and that of Shu Shu and company.
 
All the fallen beasts subconsciously quietened down.
 
When Chris brought Ian down from the aircraft, those fallen beasts silently got out of the way.
 
Chris, the emperor, they had only seen him in the news, and they had never thought that they could be in such a close contact with him.
 
Chris had already eaten something and also taken a nap for a few minutes while on the way here. And after doing a little sprucing up, his whole person, despite being thin, seemed to be in glowing spirits and no longer cut a sorry figure like when Ian first saw him.
 
"Father." Edgar called. Shu Shu also waved his hand: "Father, you came! It’s really great!"
 
Chris, seeing his beast-shaped son open his mouth and speak, was startled, yet his face showed nothing. "Edgar, Shu Shu, you’ve worked hard."
 
Chris did not show anything when speaking to Edgar, but it was impossible for others to be this calm. After being shocked by Reynolds, the men who followed after Chris were shocked by Edgar.
 
What exactly was going on? Why was His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince still able to speak in spite of being beast-shaped?
 
"This is what I should do." Edgar said. Laying his eyes on Shu Shu, he felt that it was Shu Shu who had really worked hard.
 
Chris took a deep breath, feeling excited as well as guilty.
 
If it were not for his son, Ian would probably have lost his life . . . . Fortunately, Edgar took action to save people. But . . . his son and Shu Shu had suffered hardship.
 
Seeing that Edgar had become a fallen beast again and that Shu Shu’s belly slightly bulged out, Chris immediately looked behind him, “You quickly examine the crown prince and the crown princess.”
 
Chris’ spaceship had a special medical team, and they had long been ready. Hearing Chris’ words, they promptly came to Shu Shu and Edgar’s side with some instruments and started examining Shu Shu and Edgar.
 
"Your Imperial Majesty, the beast core of His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince is gone!" A nurse cried out in alarm.
 
"The physical condition of His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince is very bad!"
 
"His Imperial Highness, he . . ."
 
The expressions of several medical personnel around Edgar were very ugly. Edgar, the crown prince, actually became a fallen beast. How big of a blow was this to the imperial family?
 
Although they heard that Reynolds had recovered after becoming a fallen beast, but who would dare to say that Edgar could also recover?
 
The medical personnel around Edgar were very worried. The medical personnel around Shu Shu, however, were both shocked and delighted.
 
The crown princess was pregnant again. This was a big, happy event, ah! The imperial family had not given birth to two children for so many years!
 
But . . . hadn’t the crown princess just given birth to a child before he was snatched? How did he get pregnant again so fast? The crown princess would not have a problem, would he? The child would not have a problem, right?
 
These medical personnel wanted to do a more detailed examination of Shu Shu but was refused by Shu Shu without the slightest hesitation—his body was different from ordinary sub-beastmen’s; how could he casually let others examine it?
 
"Is the child all right?" Edgar did not care about himself. Instead, he hastened to turn his gaze toward the medical personnel around Shu Shu.
 
"Your Imperial Highness, we’re unable to see the child's situation." The medical personnel looked at Edgar with a stumped expression and were further bewildered. Animals' vocal cords were completely different from humans’. Although some animals could produce human sounds, but snakes were absolutely incapable of doing it. Why was His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince able to speak? And his speaking voice was still exactly the same as his voice before.
 
This Fallen Beast Planet was truly beyond strange everywhere.
 
Unable to see the child's situation? Indeed, his and Shu Shu's children were completely different from other people's children . . . . Edgar breathed a sigh of relief and then remembered that he still had one thing to deal with.
 
Seeing that all the people Chris brought were in a fog, Edgar said: "I'm fine. Although I have no beast core now, but I can recover after a while."
 
"Your Imperial Highness!" The leader of the medical team, an old doctor, stared at Edgar excitedly. "Your Imperial Highness, you said you could recover?"
 
"Yes, I can recover." Edgar said affirmatively.
 
"Your Imperial Highness, you’ve become a fallen beast, and you can still recover . . . . You . . ." This doctor was a famous doctor who had published many medical papers, and his reputation was not less than Jones’. Nevertheless, he was so shocked he was unable to say complete words at the moment.
 
"Not only His Imperial Highness can recover, but other fallen beasts can also recover." Jones, pulling Reynolds' hand, came down from an aircraft.
 
Reynolds had already replaced the clothes that were wet with the little snake’s urine. He was now wearing a military uniform and looked even more conspicuously tall and handsome. That elderly doctor had met Reynolds in the past. Now, after seeing the human-shaped Reynolds, he looked ecstatic. "Mr. Reynolds has really recovered? Jones, did you come up with a method to make the fallen beasts recover?"
 
“Reynolds has recovered, but the method isn’t what I think up. It’s what ​​His Imperial Highness the Crown Princess thought up." Jones replied.
 
This matter of restoring the fallen beasts’ beast cores could not be concealed, and there was no need to conceal it either. As for the treatment method, Edgar and company had already discussed it.
 
This honor was definitely to be given to Shu Shu. Moreover, Shu Shu should be given prominence when this matter was made public.
 
"Her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess and I have researched a method to help the fallen beasts restore their beast cores, and we’ve even come up with a research direction . . . . We had no way to experiment before, but after crashing onto the Fallen Beast Planet, we got the experimental conditions, and Her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess succeeded. I’m very ashamed because I didn’t help with anything from start to finish.” Jones said.
 
The medical personnel knew that Jones had been researching a way to restore the fallen beasts’ beast cores. When they saw that Reynolds had recovered, they thought it was the result of Jones’ research. But unexpectedly, Jones actually told them this . . . .
 
The crown princess was actually so amazing? Wasn’t it said that he was just a sub-beastman who came from a remote planet without learning or skills and could only study in the bridal class?
 
Rumors really couldn’t be trusted!
 
"The crown princess can actually discover such a method! It’s really amazing!" The doctor looked at Shu Shu with admiration across his whole face. "I wonder if you can let me learn it? Your Imperial Highness, you can rest assured, I’m willing to be your student."
 
“Eh?" Shu Shu was somewhat at a loss. This old man wanted to worship him as a teacher?
 
"I’m afraid that it’s quite difficult." Jones shook his head. "Her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess’ innate skill is healing. Moreover . . . His Little Highness’ eggshell was used to help Reynolds recover."
 
It turned out to be this way? The matter was actually so troublesome? The doctor looked disappointed but quickly spoke again, "Even so, this is a monumental happy event. I believe that Her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess will definitely go down in history."
 
He would go down in history? Well, wasn’t he more amazing than Myer then? Shu Shu opened his eyes wide with joy.
 
However, his joy did not last long before his whole person froze.
 
Did not know when, but the little snake had climbed to his side by getting into his trouser leg and then crawling along his leg . . . .
 
Shu Shu absolutely didn't dare to move. Fortunately, Edgar reacted quickly and immediately grabbed the little snake’s tail and pulled him out—he would never allow others to take advantage of his own sub-beastman, even if it was his own son!
 
"Edgar, you’re so good!" Shu Shu gave Edgar a grateful look and hugged Edgar.
 
Those people who had come down from the spaceships saw this scene from a distance, and they were extremely moved. The crown princess was really great. He never left even if His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince had become a fallen beast, and he even discovered the method of restoring the beast core!
 
His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince would definitely recover, and then he would live happily forever with Her Imperial Highness the Crown Princess!

85. The Fallen Beasts Can Recover
 

Ian found out that there were spaceships landing, and Edgar over there naturally found out too. However, Edgar and Shu Shu did not know the details because the two of them were cultivating.
 
After not having to help the fallen beasts restore their beast cores, Shu Shu could save a lot of spiritual power, and he generously gave all that spiritual power to Edgar, accelerating Edgar’s recovery speed and eventually making his injuries completely healed.
 
Just today, a ball of spiritual energy re-appeared within Edgar’s body.
 
Although it was just a ball of spiritual energy that most likely needed a long time to become a nèidān, but this was already a very good start. Edgar finally felt relieved.
 
Even though he had never shown anything, but in fact, he had always been very anxious, dreading being unable to cultivate anymore. Now, he could actually set his heart at rest.
 
As a matter of fact, Edgar’s worry was indeed correct. If an ordinary daemon was seriously injured and lost his/her nèidān, it was very difficult for him/her to re-cultivate it. Edgar, however, had the blood of a mythological animal as well as someone who kept helping him to heal, so the situation was also substantially different.
 
Controlling the spiritual power in his body to circulate over and over, the circulation speed was getting faster and faster, and the spiritual power gathered was also increasing . . . . Edgar was cultivating incessantly when he suddenly discovered that some spiritual power had entered his body and promptly merged with the ball of spiritual energy in his body, making the ball of spiritual energy in his body enlarge in just a short time.
 
Edgar opened his eyes and found that Shu Shu was inputting spiritual power into him again . . . . Sighing, Edgar used his tail to write on the side, "You have a child in your belly; don't use your spiritual power on me."
 
"It’s okay. I’ve left enough spiritual power for the child!" Shu Shu smiled at Edgar.
 
Although Shu Shu said so, but Edgar could not help but feel distressed, especially after he saw that Shu Shu’s belly only protruded slightly even after so much time had passed. He felt sorry for the child and even more sorry for Shu Shu.
 
Shu Shu conceived his second child right after he had just given birth to the first one. This was actually harmful to the body. And now the child was even prevented from absorbing the needed spiritual power as much as he liked . . . . Edgar always felt that he had treated them badly.
 
When this child came out, he had to treat him well, and he had to treat Shu Shu well, too. Edgar put his tail on Shu Shu's belly and gently caressed and stroked Shu Shu's belly back and forth while inputting the spiritual power in his body into Shu Shu's belly.
 
His spiritual power had just run into the "tumor" in Shu Shu's belly, and it  was at once absorbed clean by the tumor. It could be seen that the child was lacking spiritual power very much.
 
Edgar felt even guiltier. Shu Shu, on the contrary, did not care about it. "Don’t worry. Lacking spiritual power only makes him grow a little slower. It’s fine. You have so little spiritual power; you better keep it." Although his belly had hurt for a while, but he did not feel anything now. Clearly, the child was growing very well.
 
"I think you should stop worrying about me. I’m already good now. Such a small amount of spiritual power can be re-cultivated quickly." Edgar really wanted to kiss Shu Shu, but he was a snake, a thick and big snake to boot. How could he go and kiss Shu Shu? In the end, he could only use his snake tail to scratch the hollow of Shu Shu’s palm.
 
"Humph!" Hearing Edgar's words, Shu Shu could not help but snorted. He had been envious of Edgar's cultivation speed for a long, long time!
 
Edgar rubbed against Shu Shu and once again coiled his body around Shu Shu. Shu Shu was not so afraid of him now, and the little snake was not here, so they could get intimate.
 
However, they had not stayed intimate for long when they heard some roaring and howling outside—the fallen beasts did not dare to come in, so they called them from the outside with roars and howls.
 
"Let's go take a look." Shu Shu said. He did not take a step, though. Rather, he waited until Edgar went out before following behind Edgar. There were so many beasts outside, so he definitely had to hide behind Edgar.
 
Edgar barely stepped out, and he already saw a lot of fallen beasts surrounding the dugout entrance impatiently while roaring in succession. However, as soon as he appeared, these fallen beasts all quietened down and began to write on the ground.
 
Edgar bowed his head to take a quick look and found that they wrote . . . saw some spaceships?
 
These fallen beasts said that they saw several spaceships landing together. Edgar almost instantly thought of Chris. His father would definitely make every effort to find them after they disappeared. It was not unexpected for him to come here to look for them.
 
Jonathan wanted to destroy the spaceship completely, but how could things be that simple? Moreover, when Edgar launched the lifepod to drift in the universe, he deliberately kicked some spaceship fragments out in order to facilitate Chris to find them.
 
After Edgar read all the words written by these fallen beasts, he gathered a ball of spiritual power in his throat and then spoke, "We’ll wait first."
 
"Rowr!" The fallen beasts stepped back and looked around guardedly, wanting to know where the voice came from.
 
"It's me." Edgar's tail tapped the ground.
 
The fallen beasts gazed straight at Edgar. Fallen beasts were only able to make animal sounds. They had communicated with each other for a long time, but even though they had figured out their own communication methods via animal sounds, it was absolutely impossible for them if they wanted to speak. But now, Edgar could speak!
 
It was really amazing!
 
Edgar knew that if Chris was coming, it certainly wouldn’t take long for Chris to find him. So he did not eagerly go out to find the man and just waited here instead. Shu Shu also thought the same.
 
And Chris was indeed rushing over here at this moment. Only, he did not come to find Edgar right away but went to find his grandson first.
 
He had been longing for a grandson for so many years. Naturally, he wanted to see his grandson more than his son. His grandson had broken the shell! At present, even if he kept busy without stopping to sleep or rest for a few more days, he definitely wouldn’t feel tired.
 
Reynolds and company were not far from Ian. They also had communication devices on their hands, and the communication devices could also send out signals. Chris had the aircraft follow the signal to find their location.
 
Reynolds and Jones were accompanying the little snake to play today. The lion Jesse had tried his best to explain numerous ways of taking care of a little beastman. For example, what to eat, how much water to drink, how to deal with a pooping little beastman, and so on.
 
Jesse had experience looking after children, but taking care of the little beastman who was a different race was not the same. The little snake was overactive, and they were still flustered somewhat . . . . Naturally, this made Jesse unable to control his body, and so, from time to time, a big change would happen on his person. Because of this, Reynolds and Jones often needed to look after the little snake. Reynolds even had to cover Jesse with a blanket when Jesse suddenly turned into a human—he would not let his sub-beastman see another man's naked appearance!
 
Accidentally, the little snake pooped again. After he pooped, he was still in his human form, which was a white, plump baby and especially troublesome to deal with. Unfortunately, Jesse had turned into a lion at this time. Reynolds could only let Jesse write how to handle it on the ground and then nervously dealt with the little snake according to Jesse’s instructions.
 
His own little beastman had not been born yet, and he actually had to take care of others’ child first. After Reynolds, with stiff movements, cleaned up the little snake, he could not help but ask Jesse, "This little snake’s really troublesome! Is a wolf-shaped little beastman also troublesome like this?"

Jones, who was standing on the side, heard these words and did not hesitate to pinch Reynolds' arm. Then he said, "Why did you ask this? If you don't want to take care of the little snake, let me hold the child."
 
Saying so, Jones reached out to pick the child in Reynolds' hands, but Reynolds did not let him—how could he let his own sub-beastman hold another beastman? It was out of the question even if it was just a small beastman. He did not like the scent of others on Jones’ body.
 
Reynolds was dodging Jones, and the little beastman in his arms peed on him. Reynolds’ chest was immediately wet, and he strongly smelled like the little snake from head to toe . . . .
 
Reynolds was gloomy. Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he saw the scene of a spaceship landing. He and Jones glanced at each other and thought about going together.
 
Ian was the empress, and Edgar was the crown prince. Now that there was a spaceship coming, it was surely coming to find them!
 
So, they could leave this place?
 
Reynolds’ clothes were wet with pee, yet he forgot to change them. He just stared at the place where the spaceship landed with a complicated mood.
 
He had been on the Fallen Beast Planet for thirty years. During those thirty years, mind-boggling changes might have taken place outside. What would he encounter when he returned outside? Could he still provide Jones with a good life?
 
Reynolds looked a bit lifeless, and the child in his arms took advantage of this opportunity to turn into a little snake and swiftly ran away.
 
Reynolds hurriedly chased after him.
 
While they were being busy, Chris and company found them and happened to see Reynolds, whose chest was still wet, catch a little snake with claws.
 
Chris sniffed and found that the wet spot on Reynolds’ chest smelled like the little snake. It went without saying what exactly that thing was . . . .
 
"Chris, catch your grandson." Reynolds threw the little snake on his hand to Chris.
 
Chris reached out with his hand to catch the little snake and raised his head to look at Reynolds. Even if he made a supreme effort to suppress it, his face still showed a happy expression. "I didn't expect that I can see you again." After Reynolds had become a fallen beast, he met with Reynolds and suggested that he could help Reynolds obtain a better living environment, but Reynolds refused and only asked him to take good care of Jones.
 
From that time on, he thought he would never see Reynolds again. But unexpectedly, thirty years later, he actually saw Reynolds again, and Reynolds even kept the human form.
 
Reynolds had recovered and was no longer a fallen beast!
 
Chris could not help but get excited. The good news he got today was really too much . . . . Carrying the little snake in his arms, he suddenly had an urge to thank God.
 
"General Reynolds!" Chris' assistant was shocked to see Reynolds—what the hell did he see? He saw General Reynolds, who had become a fallen beast, standing in front of him, perfectly all right!
 
Hadn’t General Reynolds become a fallen beast? Why was he perfectly all right now?
 
Many people followed behind Chris. Before, these people were already very, very surprised when they saw the leopard Bauer suddenly turn into a human. They did not understand why a beastman would appear on the Fallen Beast Planet. Now, seeing Reynolds, they were shocked speechless.
 
What exactly was going on? Could the fallen beasts recover?
 
When they first landed on the Fallen Beast Planet, they still fretted, worrying that they would get attacked by the fallen beasts. But now . . . .
 
The empress being fine was a big happy event, but the fact that the fallen beasts were able to recover . . . . This was simply a huge bomb that could absolutely blow up the entire Beastman Empire!
 
The difficult problem that had perplexed the Beastman Empire for countless years was now solved?

84. Met Again After a Long Period of Separation
 

The bright spot falling from the sky was not strange to Ian; it was the scene of a spaceship landing.
 
There was a spaceship landing . . . . Was this someone coming?
 
Ian and the others’ lives on the Fallen Beast Planet could not be regarded as bad, but it was definitely not good. At least for Ian, who was used to the convenient and fast life of the capital star, living here was inconvenient for him in all respects.
 
Everyone here lived like this though. In fact, because he was a sub-beastman, he had received a lot of care, so naturally, he never said anything.
 
However, him not saying anything did not mean he did not want to go back.
 
So many days had passed; he wondered how things in the capital star were . . . . He kept thinking of Chris these days. Now that he saw a spaceship landing, he just couldn’t wait to rush ahead straightway to take a look.
 
Nevertheless, although the spaceship was landing, but it did not come down on their side. The landing site seemed to be very far from them, and it would probably take a lot of effort to go there even if it was a beastman, not to mention that he was just a sub-beastman.
 
"A spaceship’s coming!" Ian excitedly tried to catch a glimpse of the area where the spaceship landed and immediately turned his gaze toward the leopard Bauer, "Bauer, do you have any device that can transmit messages to that spaceship?" When these fallen beasts were sent to the Fallen Beast Planet, they all brought some stuff, and there was no lack of communication devices among these. He wondered if Bauer brought one with him.
 
Because the Fallen Beast Planet was a primitive planet, messages sent from those communication devices simply couldn’t reach the outside of the Fallen Beast Planet, but after the spaceship had landed, it could receive such messages.
 
"I do. I’ve been holding onto my communication device. But, can you just send some messages casually? If that spaceship belongs to the star pirate, what should we do?" The leopard Bauer asked worriedly.
 
“Will the star pirates come here?” Ian asked a question in reply.
 
"Actually, no . . ." The leopard Bauer answered. There was no habitable star or mineral star in the vicinity of the Fallen Beast Planet. This place was so poor it would not even raise a fuss. Not to say that the only spaceship that passed by each year was escorted by the military, the fallen beasts and the food loaded inside were also not worth robbing at all, so the star pirates would never come here.
 
But if the star pirates would not come, other people normally wouldn’t come either, ah . . . . It was still more than half a year before the spaceship that sent food would come again. What the hell was this spaceship doing here?
 
Could it be that people were coming to pick up the empress and the crown prince?
 
The leopard Bauer somewhat doubted it. Some bright spots appeared in the sky again—more spaceships were landing.
 
These spaceships were significantly larger than the first spaceship, to the extent that they could see the faint silhouette of the spaceships. The spaceships were arranged in a neat and tidy row and slowly began to land.
 
Ian could not clearly see the specific appearance of those spaceships because they were a little too far away, but with so many spaceships together, they could not be star pirates!
 
"Quick, take your communication device out." Ian told Bauer at once.
 
The leopard Bauer looked at those spaceships and stared blankly for a moment. Only after hearing Ian’s words did he hurriedly fish out the communication device from the space button and hand it over to Ian.
 
Inside one of the spaceships that were landing on the Fallen Beast Planet.
 
Chris stood in the main control room; his eyes were sunken and red, and his complexion was even worse.
 
He did not feel like eating anything these days. Although he would drink concentrated nutrient fluid every day, but the whole person still lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, so much so that he looked worse than when he thought Edgar had died.
 
At that time, although he thought his son was dead, but at least he still had a partner at his side to accompany himself. His partner also depended on him, so he absolutely couldn’t collapse. But now, he was really unable to endure it.
 
To date, it had been more or less half a month since they had found the first fragment of his private spaceship. And during this half a month, Chris had fully experienced torments every day and even at every moment.
 
The spaceship was broken into pieces; could the people on board still be alive?
 
Chris simply didn't dare to think deeply about it, but he still spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot. After that, he began searching the universe for the spaceship's lifepod.
 
Although everyone felt that the probability of the kidnapped empress and other people on the spaceship being able to take the lifepod and flee for their lives was very low, but they still spared no pains or effort to look for the lifepod.
 
After they found the first fragment of the spaceship, they actually didn’t catch anything again for a time. They eventually found the second fragment in a very remote area.
 
Even though the original exit of the wormhole was unstable, but it was usually safe and had a regular pattern. But now, the exit of that wormhole had been completely chaotic, to the point that there were more than one exit.
 
They kept looking without stopping to sleep or rest for ten days. The researchers constantly did calculations using the data they already had and finally circled out a rough range where the lifepod, if there was any, would be after coming out of the wormhole. Afterwards, everyone continued to look for it.
 
But they still ended up empty-handed.
 
An intact lifepod would send out a distress signal, and the signal was also very strong. Yet they had never received such a signal at all . . . . If it were not for the fact that they had not found those people nor their dead bodies, Chris had probably already collapsed now.
 
Everyone present was full of worries about His Imperial Majesty the Emperor, but no one dared to advise Chris to stop and rest . . . . Chris’ temper was very bad these days. Almost everyone who went up to persuade him got ruthlessly punished. This time, if it were not for having to find a habitable planet nearby because they had no more water for daily use in the spaceship, Chris probably would’ve completely rejected the brief stop-over on the Fallen Beast Planet.
 
When the spaceship entered the atmosphere, it shook slightly but quickly stabilized. Chris blinked his dry eyes and ordered, "Dispatch the robots to check the entire planet thoroughly.”
 
They once found a large piece of spaceship fragment on an area one-day-travel away from the Fallen Beast Planet. If there was indeed a lifepod coming out of the wormhole . . . maybe the lifepod would land on this planet.
 
Chris also hoped that the lifepod would land on this planet.
 
There was life on this planet. If the lifepod landed here, the people inside would have a way to survive. But if it landed elsewhere . . . .
 
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chris’ assistant answered and went to arrange some men to search for those people.
 
"Wait," Chris suddenly stopped him. "I’ll go too."
 
"Your Majesty, the medical officer said that you need to rest." Chris' assistant could not help but say. Chris' condition was very bad; the medical officer had said that if he did not rest, he might likely collapse.
 
"You just have to obey my orders! Ian and the others should be on this planet. I’ll go and look for them myself." Chris said. The star field they circled out had been searched everywhere, but there was simply no lifepod found . . . . Now he was hoping that the lifepod was here.
 
How possible was it for the empress’ lifepod to crash here? Chris' assistant did not think that they would be so fortunate. He would rather Chris took a good rest than search for people.
 
But when he looked up and saw Chris' face, such thoughts instantly disappeared. "Yes, Your Majesty. I’ll arrange it right away!"
 
The spaceship finally landed on the ground. Chris put on a dry land combat suit and was about to step out. At this moment, the man in charge of handling messages aboard the spaceship suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, we received a message."
 
"What message?" Chris halted his footsteps and asked.
 
Chris’ assistant had already realized and quickly said, "It should be an SOS message sent out by the fallen beasts on the planet . . . . Your Majesty, this is the Fallen Beast Planet; would you like to bring some more people with you?"
 
"No need." Chris replied. He once again started to leave and unexpectedly  heard an exclamation from behind. "We received the empress' message!"
 
"What?" Chris' footsteps suddenly stopped, then he turned round and looked over.
 
"There’s a message here saying that he’s the empress . . ." Someone said, pointing to the message on the display screen. The message showed a string of military secret codes, and after breaking the codes, a message saying that he was the empress appeared.
 
Seeing this, Chris’ face showed an ecstatic expression. "Lock onto the communication device that sent the message! I’m going to rush there in the shortest possible time!"
 
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
 
Several aircraft flew out of the spaceship, flying toward the distance. Meanwhile, in the spaceship, Calvin turned to face the Duke of Mund with a happy expression on his face. "Father, did you hear it?"
 
"I heard it." The Duke of Mund nodded, mood loosening at once.
 
If the empress and the others were fine, then he and his son would also be fine . . . .

The sky above the Fallen Beast Planet had always been the territory of the strange birds with long wings and fur that looked a bit like huge bats. These animals were savage carnivores. When they gathered during the breeding season, even powerful fallen beasts would give way in the face of their superior strength.
 
They were the overlords of the sky on the Fallen Beast Planet, but today, many "monsters" that were much bigger than them appeared in the sky.
 
A strange bird charged into that huge monster and directly got its neck broken from the collision and lost its life. Other strange birds immediately became afraid of those "monsters". Screeching, they scattered and fled.
 
On the ground, a small colony of fallen beasts who heard the frightened screeching of the strange birds raised their heads and unexpectedly saw several aircraft flying very fast toward the distance.
 
Aircraft? How could aircraft appear on the Fallen Beast Planet?
 
The fallen beasts in this colony were extremely curious, yet they could not think of a reason, so they just went hunting as usual—even if several aircrafts appeared here, it did not matter to them, fallen beasts; they still had to do their own things.
 
Although Reynolds had sent them some food, but they would still go hunting, so as to avoid not having enough food to eat.
 
The bright sports in the sky had disappeared; it might be assumed that several spaceships had landed . . . . Ian turned his gaze in the direction of the landing spaceships and clenched his teeth, saying, "Let's go there!"
 
"Empress . . ." The leopard Bauer was full of excitement. If he could follow those spaceships and leave the Fallen Beast Planet, didn’t it mean that it would not be long before he could see his own sub-beastman and children? With such thoughts, he suddenly couldn’t help but turn into his beast form—besides fatigue, being too excited could also make little beastmen involuntarily transform themselves.
 
Bauer could not speak after he turned into his beast form. He looked at the direction of the spaceships’ whereabouts and stooped down before Ian, hinting at Ian to go up and sit on his back.
 
Although beastmen generally would only let their own sub-beastmen and children ride on their backs, but it was not absolute. In special circumstances, carrying other sub-beastmen on their backs was not a problem.
 
The leopard Bauer already had his own sub-beastman, and the empress’ status and age were also very different from his. He thought it did not matter even if he carried the empress. In any case, he would never have any thoughts about the empress.
 
Ian straightforwardly sat on the leopard’s back, and then the leopard quickly ran out.
 
They had not run for long before some aircraft came into view in front of them. When they saw those aircraft, Ian’s heart gave a jump, and the leopard also came to a stop.
 
They stopped, and those aircraft also stopped. Someone jumped down from the front of the aircraft, staring deeply at Ian.
 
It was Chris! Ian came down from the leopard’s back and stared at Chris with excitement. Both men did not talk, but the gazes they exchanged seemed to speak a thousand words.
 
Chris and Ian met again after a long period of separation. They were very excited, but unexpectedly, at this moment, the leopard at Ian’s side suddenly became a person, and a naked one at that.
 
Chris, who was going to embrace his spouse, immediately sported a black look on his face. The leopard Bauer felt that he was extremely unlucky. He actually forgot that he still couldn’t completely control his transformation . . . .
 
Bauer urgently wished to turn back into his beast form to escape the awkwardness, but sadly, he was unable to change. Just when he was worrying, he suddenly felt some pressure come rushing towards him . . . .
 
As a not-so-powerful beastman, Bauer directly turned into his beast form under this pressure.
 
Okay, it was fine now.
 
Bauer shrunk to the side and did not move a muscle.
 
Chris originally had many words he wanted to say to Ian. But after he really saw Ian, he was actually unable to say a single word. On the contrary, after a pause, Ian at once started to jabber on and on. “Chris, how did you make yourself look like this? Looking at how ugly you are, how long have you not eaten and bathed? Quickly eat something. I’ll talk to you while you eat."
 
"We’re all fine. You don't have to worry. The egg has hatched, and it’s a very vigorous little beastman. He runs particularly fast I can’t even catch up with him.”
 
“Our lives have been very good these days. We haven’t been hungry or cold.”
 
“I’m fine. It’s just that . . . I miss you."

83. Chris is Coming


Beastmen had very strong resilience. In particular, they could recover from superficial wounds very fast, and their level of tolerance toward injuries was also very high. 
 
In the past, even if Bruno was injured when hunting or taught a lesson by Reynolds for talking drivel, he would never cry that it hurt and would just suffer in silence for two days. But today, he actually lay down beside Jesse, whimpering that it hurt and incessantly saying that he felt uncomfortable here and felt bad there . . . .
 
Jesse did not turn a deaf ear to him and helped him lick his wounds one by one.
 
Bruno suddenly felt that the injuries he suffered this time were very worthy. At the same time, he also felt guilty at having done such things to Shu Shu. That person was a sub-beastman; it was really awful of him to scare somebody like that . . . . Thinking so, Bruno snorted and then told Jesse his thoughts.
 
"It’s good that you know." Jesse looked at Bruno silently. He originally wanted to become a beastman early and then help out with things, so that Shu Shu would also restore Bruno's beast core earlier. As a result, Bruno roared yesterday and completely disrupted his plan. Now he did not know if Shu Shu was still willing to help him restore his beast core or not.
 
Anyway, the matter had already reached this point; regretting was useless, but they could think of a way to remedy it . . . . Jesse said to Bruno, "Since you know it’s wrong, we’ll go apologize tomorrow."
 
"Got it." Bruno nodded obediently. After settling the big worry in his heart, he now didn't dislike Shu Shu at all and even had a particularly good opinion of Shu Shu because Shu Shu, who was Edgar’s sub-beastman, had come up with a solution for them.
 
Bruno and Jesse idled for a while. Feeling that his body had completely had no problem, Bruno suddenly stood up and then limped out.
 
Jesse wondered what he was going to do and saw him approach a pair of fallen beasts lovers like them and say with a smug face: "Jesse gave me his beast bead; what about you? Have you exchanged beast bead?”
 
Bruno showing such a smug expression really looked like he needed a little spanking, ah . . . .
 
However, after he showed off like this, several fallen beast lovers who had been together for a long time actually exchanged beast bead as well, which could be considered as making a commitment for a lifetime together.
 
While the fallen beasts outside gathered in twos and threes to socialize or to fight, Edgar extended his tail tip into the hole dug out by Shu Shu, wanting to fish Shu Shu out of the hole.
 
He was a snake; he could not call Shu Shu or make any other sound except for a slight "hissing" sound. And this sound would probably make Shu Shu afraid, so he could only use the tip of his tail to try to hook Shu Shu out.
 
However . . . Shu Shu had already dug said hole so deep that after his tail was tightly stuck, it still couldn't reach Shu Shu.
 
Edgar gloomily gave his own son a quick glare. If it were not for his son recklessly chasing people, how could his sub-beastman run away?
 
The little snake was completely unaware that his own father was full of blame toward himself and was still wriggling in the direction of the hole over there—he could sense that his mother was there, and he wanted to go find his mother! He was a little beastman who relied on smell to find his family. Him chasing after the little hamster before was actually because he wanted his mother to hug him . . . .
 
Edgar certainly couldn’t let his son scare his wife again and placed the little snake into the bag that Shu Shu sewed. He bit the opening of the bag with his mouth and did not let the little snake come out, intending to give him a lesson.
 
Then . . . the child fell asleep just like that.
 
Edgar held the bag containing his son with his mouth and guarded the small hole impatiently, waiting for his wife to come out of the hole.
 
After Shu Shu got into the hole alone, he felt very embarrassed at first. He had no time to think more and only considered digging a hole. Later, he felt a little lonely and thought about Edgar somewhat.
 
Climbing out of the hole, Shu Shu very carefully looked left and right and then saw a huge snake head close by staring at him.
 
He subconsciously drew back, but then he recalled that this was Edgar and was no longer afraid. He immediately turned into a person and began to complain, "Edgar, the lion called Bruno bullied me! I’ll help him restore his beast core the last! And your son, he chased me! It’s the worst!"
 
"Then wait until the end to help Bruno restore his beast core. As for the child . . ." Edgar stopped his tail tip from writing words to communicate and used it to roll up the bag holding the child and give it to Shu Shu.
 
What were they going to do? Shu Shu took the proffered bag, a bit puzzled. He was human-shaped now, tall and big, and he was not as afraid of the little snake as before.
 
"You can beat him up to vent your anger." Edgar once again used his tail to write.
 
Beat the child? Shu Shu was shocked and instantly angered. "You actually want to beat the child! Don’t you know that this is domestic violence? Children must be taught well and mustn't be beaten."
 
Shu Shu also thought that brats were very annoying. After all, when he was just a little hamster, he was often harassed by brats. There was one time when he was "purchased" to be a house pet; the family purchased him purely for the brat to play around and even let the child catch and throw him down . . . . He then bit the brat ruthlessly and ran away.
 
However, his own child presently wasn’t a brat, ah! How many days had this child been born? The child chasing him was probably only for fun; how could he casually beat him? If he always beat people indiscriminately, wouldn’t the child learn to follow suit?
 
Although afraid of his own child, but Shu Shu intended to teach him to become a young man like Edgar!
 
Shu Shu grabbed Edgar and inquired into what he had learned about raising a child. Afterwards, he depressedly stated, "We both don't understand how to teach children, and we also don't know how to raise children. It seems that we must hurry up and help Jesse restore his beast core tomorrow, so he can give us some ideas."
 
In fact, Ian should have had some understanding about this, but he lived in the imperial palace at that time, with high-tech products and robots everywhere. In addition, there were specialized nannies who helped taking care of Edgar, so he only needed to accompany Edgar to play and was unaware of many things.
 
"That’s for sure. But there’s still one thing you should pay attention to." Edgar wrote using his tail. "Half of the eggshell has been used by you. If you continue like this, how many more people can you save?"
 
The little snake’s eggshell was originally not much. The little snake himself had eaten half of it, and the rest was just a little bit. It was just that Shu Shu had been afraid to fail, so he had not dared to feed Reynolds and the leopard Bauer too little. Consequently, the remaining eggshell was barely sufficient.
 
Shu Shu was at a loss figuring this out.
 
He actually still had a lot of things that he could use. For example, he had a lot of Edgar’s scales, but the key thing was that he could not make Edgar's scales into fine powder. For the time being, he could only use the little snake's eggshell . . . .
 
However, there was not much left of this eggshell now.
 
Forget it, when he helped Jesse tomorrow, he would use less eggshell powder . . . . Shu Shu thought about it and finally prepared only half of the eggshell powder used by the previous two people.
 
Today had been hectic; Shu Shu slept late and also got up quite late the next day. When he went out, everyone else had already eaten, but the leopard Bauer had specially cooked and kept some delicious food for him, and it was still nice and warm.
 
Although he had crashed onto a primitive planet, but his current life was not bad at all.
 
The leopard Bauer's cooking skill was much better than Ian’s and Jones’, and Shu Shu was perfectly satisfied with his meal. And when he had just finished eating, Jesse, leading Bruno, came over.
 
Afraid of scaring Shu Shu, the two lions did not come near and just wrote on the ground, "I'm sorry."
 
Was everything okay once you said you’re sorry? Shu Shu was not satisfied somewhat. But when he turned his head and saw that Bruno was injured from head to toe, he could not help but grin and stop getting angry.
 
Bruno looked really miserable . . . . Shu Shu could not help but take a few more looks at him. The more he stared at him, the more he wanted to laugh.
 
Shu Shu accepted Bruno's apology and had every intention to help Jesse restore his beast core according to the original plan.
 
The procedure this time was still the same as the previous two, but the eggshell powder fed to Jesse in the beginning was much less. Nevertheless, although the eggshell powder that Shu Shu gave was reduced, Jesse still succeeded, and the lion under the quilt became a naked man.
 
Reynolds looked very handsome; bearing the vicissitudes of life on his body, he was a very attractive man. In contrast, the leopard Bauer looked very ordinary, making him a forgettable man. As for Jesse . . . .
 
Jesse did not look as good as his partner Bruno had imagined, but he possessed a gentle temperament that made people feel like being cleansed by a spring wind, which in turn made people subconsciously like him very much.
 
Bruno had been waiting anxiously on the side. Seeing Jesse sit up and drape a cloth over his own body, he immediately rushed up excitedly, tongue extended to lick Jesse—they only got acquainted with each other after the two of them had become fallen beasts; this was the first time he saw Jesse’s appearance, and he definitely thought that this face was quite exceptional!
 
Looking at this smooth face, Bruno wondered how it would feel when he licked it . . . . He had just taken a lap with his tongue and unexpectedly found a mouthful of hair in his mouth.
 
Jesse, who had just become a human, had changed into his beast form again.
 
"Rowr!" Bruno was a bit disgruntled. "Why did you turn back? I still want to take another look at your appearance."
 
"I don't know what’s going on either." Jesse was a little bewildered as well. He simply hadn’t been able to control himself just now . . . .
 
Quite the opposite, the leopard Bauer who saw this scene faintly thought of something . . . . He had also experienced losing control of himself, but it was not as serious as Jesse . . . .
 
"What's going on with this?" Shu Shu was also a little puzzled and beckoned to Jesse, "Come here, I’ll check it for you."
 
Jesse promptly came to Shu Shu, who was guarded by Edgar. Shu Shu used his spiritual power to help him check and immediately frowned, "Your beast core’s a little small."
 
Jesse looked confused.
 
"Probably because the eggshell powder I gave you to eat was too little, so your beast core is a little small, just like the little snake’s . . . . But it doesn't matter; it’ll totally grow well later." Shu Shu patted Jesse’s head. This beast core would slowly grow; he did not know about other people’s, but he found that the little snake’s beast core had grown a little bigger.
 
So . . . Jesse’s current transformation was just like a little beastman who could not control his own body? The surrounding people were a bit surprised, but even so, they envied Jesse very much.
 
"What you fed us before was eggshell powder? Xiao Bao's eggshell?" Reynolds suddenly asked.
 
"Yeah." Shu Shu nodded.
 
The little snake's eggshell could restore their beast cores? Hearing this, the surrounding fallen beasts all looked amazed, but they all believed it.
 
"Unfortunately, the eggshell wasn’t much, so I could only use less." Shu Shu said.
 
Everyone saw the birth of the little snake, which meant that they could also estimate how much the eggshell was. They naturally knew that Shu Shu was not lying, and so they started to worry—if the little snake’s eggshell was used up and it was still not their turn to restore the beast core, what should they do?
 
With this in mind, everyone turned their gaze toward Shu Shu's belly. It seemed that there was still one egg in Shu Shu’s belly. Could they expect Shu Shu to give birth to a few more?
 
"Anyway, you can rest assured that when Edgar has recovered, he’ll definitely be able to help you restore your beast cores, even without the eggshell." Shu Shu said again. Edgar was more powerful than him; when the moment came, he would surely come up with a way. Even if he could not think of a way, Edgar would be definitely able to crumble his own scales!
 
Edgar was originally more powerful than Shu Shu? The fallen beasts immediately got so excited that they seemed to forget their worries just now. They had been waiting for so many years; waiting a little longer was nothing.
 
In the next few days, Shu Shu helped three people restore their beast cores, and then his eggshell powder was used up.
 
These three people’s performances were the same as Jesse’s; they were unable to control their transformations. But even so, they were still envied by other fallen beasts. At the same time, these fallen beasts began to change their methods and work even harder to curry favor with Shu Shu. It was unknown when Edgar would recover, so the only thing they could count on now was obviously the egg in Shu Shu's belly!
 
The eggshell was so little, and by then, it was definitely not enough to help all of them to restore their beast cores, so of course they had to work harder. First come first served!
 
While these beasts were vying to curry favor with Shu Shu, Jesse also expressed that he could help taking care of the little snake. He was currently still not very good at controlling his body, and he could not look after the child all day long, but taking him along and accompanying him to play for a while were still doable.
 
Edgar agreed; Shu Shu thought about it and also agreed. Although it was important for the child to be with his parents, but occasionally going out to play with others was fine too. Moreover, according to Jesse’s argument, little beastmen were full of energy and should be brought out for exercise in fresh air every day.
 
Thus, the little snake along with his bag were given to Jesse.
 
Of course, although it was said that the nursemaid job would be given to Jesse, but it was not completely thrown to Jesse; there were still some people watching. Reynolds took the leopard Bauer along, and Jones and Ian followed after them.
 
They actually did this not because they did not trust Jesse. It was purely because everyone was idle and had nothing to do. The child was a rarity, so they all took the chance to be close to the child, and while they were at it, they also could help protect the child.
 
Ian liked the child very much and had been following after the child, but sometimes he would lose him . . . .
 
He could not do anything about it because the little snake ran very fast. Jesse, Reynolds, and Bauer were all beastmen and able to keep up. Jones could sit on Reynolds’ back and keep up too. Only he, as a sub-beastman who ran slow, was doomed to be left behind.
 
Edgar’s child was really very lively and ran very fast! Ian was very much helpless, and at the same time, he remembered Chris—if Chris was here, he could carry him and keep pace with the child . . . .
 
But now there was no Chris around him; there was only the leopard Bauer accompanying him.
 
"Empress, let's go back first?" Bauer asked.
 
"Okay." Ian nodded. At this moment, he suddenly felt the sky light up.
 
Looking up, Ian unexpectedly discovered a bright spot appearing in the sky and was falling rapidly onto the ground.

82. Using the Beast Bead to Coax Someone


Whose beast core did not develop slowly? It’s no big deal!
 
The leopard Bauer felt that this was just a very minor side effect, and he really didn’t take it seriously. After all, being able to become a beastman again was already his greatest fortune.
 
After obtaining the beast core, even if he turned into his beast form, the whole beast was more sober and calmer than before. Furthermore, most of his negative emotions of the past had all vanished like smoke in thin air . . . . The leopard sat on the sandy ground and leisurely licked his claws, thinking that the barren rock desert before his eyes was simply a rarely seen beautiful scenery in the world.
 
Even though the Fallen Beast Planet was very beautiful, but he certainly still wished to leave this place soon. He did not know how big his child was now . . . .
 
The leopard Bauer thought for a while, then he stood up and ran far. Shu Shu was pregnant with a child, so he had better go and get some fruits and vegetables for Shu Shu to eat, which could be considered as his tokens of appreciation . . . .
 
After helping the leopard Bauer restore his beast core, the next turn was the lion Jesse, who was recommended by Reynolds. Jesse was a doctor before; he did not specialize in treating beastmen like Jones did but was a general practitioner instead. He also helped his mother to take care of three younger brothers and had lots of knowledge about childbirth. Reynolds thought that letting him become a human early was of great benefit to Shu Shu.
 
Shu Shu had just hatched out a child, and there was still another one in his belly. As it happened, he knew nothing at all about child-rearing in the Beastman Empire, and so he was very eager to learn about it. When he heard that Jesse was an expert in this field, he immediately nodded repeatedly. "Then the next is to help Jesse restore his beast core."
 
Done talking, Shu Shu turned toward Jesse and very confidently stated, " Jesse, rest assured, I’ll definitely help you restore your beast core!"
 
The lion lay prone in front of Shu Shu and bowed his head over his two front paws, showing deference with eyes full of gratitude.
 
Such a big lion was actually showing deference to him and still very grateful to him, too! Before, Shu Shu was preoccupied with the injured Edgar and had no time to be concerned about others. Later, he worried that he would fail to help others restore their beast cores, to the extent that he never paid too much attention to these fallen beasts. Now though . . . .
 
Seeing these fallen beasts all looking at him worshipingly, Shu Shu suddenly felt rather smug and conceited.
 
The way Reynolds led so many giant beasts before looked so cool and so mighty, ah! In the future . . . was there any possibility that these people would follow him?
 
Shu Shu imagined having countless people charge and break through the enemy lines for his own sake with just a wave of his hand, and his eyes were full of excitement. Seeing him like this, the gaze of the huge lion in front of him also softened.
 
Another male lion, Bruno, also wanted to become a beastman. After all, being a beastman was much more convenient and effortless than being a fallen beast. But when he saw Jesse lie prone in front of that sub-beastman, his mood immediately plunged.
 
Jesse was actually very powerful. The many times he could hit and win against Jesse were all Jesse throwing the games. Although he did not know how Jesse would look after becoming a human, but he felt that Jesse should look pretty good. Would this Jesse like those sub-beastmen and dislike him later?
 
With such a thought, Bruno could not help but become violent. He originally stayed far behind, but he suddenly stood up and roared at Shu Shu, showing his ferocious appearance.
 
The mighty roar of the lion burst between the heavens and the earth and seemed to carry murderous intent. Shu Shu, who was just fantasizing about leading a group of beastmen to sweep across the whole planet, instinctively turned around and ran away, getting into the dugout at lightning speed.
 
Although for him these ferocious beasts were not as terrible as snakes because they did not eat hamsters, but he always felt that they were incomparably powerful and indomitable. Now that there was a lion roaring at him . . . Shu Shu could not stop himself from running away.
 
Edgar did not go out and was cultivating in the dugout. He had just cultivated for a short while when he saw Shu Shu scurry in from the outside and run straight to his side.
 
Shu Shu looked startled, and Edgar subconsciously wanted to protect him in his arms, but he was a snake, no more than a long thin body. Although he grew paws but his paws were very short. How could he hold Shu Shu?
 
Edgar stopped cultivating and was going to encircle Shu Shu. He did not expect that Shu Shu would actually turn into a little hamster all of a sudden and then hide under his paws.
 
Edgar protected Shu Shu very carefully, coiling his whole body while facing the dugout entrance at the same time. After he did all this, Ian got in from outside the dugout. "Shu Shu’s fine, right?"
 
Edgar shook his head and continued to stare at Ian.
 
Edgar came out of his belly; Ian did not have to think about it and could already guess that he definitely wanted to ask him about what was going on just now. So he immediately said, "It's Bruno. That lion has scared Shu Shu."
 
Edgar nodded. He wanted to go out to help Shu Shu take revenge, but Shu Shu was really frightened right now and still hiding under his paws. It was not suitable for him to go out at this time . . . . Edgar could only endure it for the time being.
 
"You can rest assured that the guy’s out of luck now." Ian sneered. That Bruno had abducted Jones before, and this time he had scared Shu Shu . . . . His impression of this guy was extremely poor.
 
Edgar swayed his tail to express that he got it. Ian saw Edgar like this and knew that he most likely still felt annoyed. He smirked and then walked away—he had better not disturb the two little husbands who were being intimate here.
 
However, talking about this . . . Edgar was now a fallen beast as well as a snake whom Shu Shu was very afraid of. Supposedly, Shu Shu would not get intimate with him, right?
 
Thinking of this, Ian snorted lightly.
 
Ian left, and Edgar immediately went to see Shu Shu, who was encircled by himself, but he did not expect to suddenly hear a few miserable "squeaks". After that, a little hamster clawed at Edgar’s scales and climbed over his body and then ran out at lightning speed. The degree of panic and fear was even more serious than when he hid in.
 
What's going on? Edgar was rather puzzled. The little snake, whom was mainly looked after by him during these two days, also climbed over his body and then chased after the little hamster.
 
The hamster’s fleeing speed was very fast, but the little snake was also not the least inferior and did not fall behind at all. He chased after the hamster and slithered swiftly, body twisted into an S shape and looking very lively.
 
"Squeak!" Shu Shu cried out again, "Save me, ah! Edgar, you quickly take the brat behind me away!"
 
Edgar was temporarily speechless. Getting scared into this form and also being chased by his own child . . . . Shu Shu was . . . *cough cough*!
 
Although it felt a bit funny, but Edgar did not dare to overlook it and immediately used his snake tail to catch the little snake.
 
No one chasing behind, Shu Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief and hid in the corner of the dugout, not moving. He had been scared witless by the lion outside just now and wanted to find Edgar for a little comfort. Unexpectedly, while he was still pondering whether he should ask Edgar to help him get out of this predicament and was just feeling a bit at ease, a snake came running to him . . . . Shu Shu at this moment was gloomy and extremely depressed as well. He was actually scared by his own child to the point of fleeing ignominiously . . . .
 
Seeing the little snake who was still wriggling towards him and kept wanting to pounce on him even though he had been rolled up by Edgar’s tail, Shu Shu was extremely distressed.
 
He turned his body around, butt facing Edgar, and refused to talk.
 
Edgar nevertheless grabbed the little snake with his claws and then touched Shu Shu with the tip of his tail, stroking Shu Shu from head to tail and smoothing Shu Shu’s ruffled fur.
 
Being petted like this was very comfortable, and Shu Shu made a joyful sound. Edgar wanted to take this opportunity to get Shu Shu to come to his side.
 
Shu Shu nearly gave in but then recalled the shameful things he had done just now . . . . He ignored Edgar and brandished his two claws toward the wall instead. After that, he quickly dug out a small hole on the wall of the dugout and squeezed into it.
 
He had to calm down after being scared witless by his own son!
 
Edgar: . . .
 
Forget it, he would just take this opportunity to go out and help Shu Shu take revenge . . . .
 
Outside the cave, Bruno had just gotten a beating.
 
After he roared, two fallen beasts beside him charged into him without the slightest hesitation, and then one of them gave him a slap. Later, after realizing that Shu Shu had been scared away, countless fallen beasts also charged into him, and they all beat him up.
 
Shu Shu was the hope of all of them, and this guy actually went to scare Shu Shu. It was simply unforgivable!
 
Bruno also knew that he had been rude and impetuous, but he did not want to admit his mistakes. He lowered his head and fought those people sloppily.
 
The surrounding fallen beasts were a bit helpless seeing him like this. They had been living together for a long time; of course they could not really finish Bruno. After giving him a beating, they considered it done. At this moment, Edgar, who was holding the little snake with his claws, climbed out of the dugout.
 
His own sub-beastman was scared by others and now hiding himself in a hole and refused to see him . . . . Edgar looked at Bruno with a particularly cold gaze.
 
The leopard Bauer turned into a human form, which was the most convenient form to communicate with others. He originally wanted to say a few persuading words, but after seeing Edgar’s expression and sensing Edgar’s imposing manner . . . he could not control himself anymore and directly turned into a leopard and ran away.
 
Reynolds also couldn't stand it. He became stronger after he became a beastman again, and normally, he would no longer be afraid of a single fallen beast. But in reality, he was still afraid of Edgar.
 
"Edgar, don't kill." Reynolds said and took Jones to leave the fighting ring.
 
In fact, this could not be said to be a fighting ring because Bruno simply didn’t have the strength to fight Edgar. He was unilaterally beaten by Edgar from the start.
 
Edgar swung his tail and directly whipped Bruno with it, leaving a welt on Bruno's body. After the first whip, the second whip and the third whip quickly arrived . . . .
 
Bruno’s body hurt very much, but the one that made him most painful was that Jesse did not come to help him.
 
Jesse was able to become a beastman, so he refused to acknowledge him now? Bruno inexplicably felt wronged all of a sudden.
 
Edgar certainly didn't know the grievances in Bruno's heart, but he still paid attention to propriety when laying his hands on someone. After leaving a few whip marks on Bruno, he stopped. As he stopped, he saw a lion run to Bruno’s side and licked Bruno’s wounds.
 
"Rowr." Bruno roared at Jesse and bared his teeth, rejecting Jesse's approach.
 
"Bruno, don't make trouble." Jesse said. These days, everyone was very happy because they finally had hope, but Bruno kept showing an excessive amount of negativity because he did not like sub-beastmen. Jesse was unable to put up with it any longer. What the hell was going on with Bruno?
 
"Humph!" Bruno snorted and turned his head, still ignoring Jesse.
 
Jesse circled around Bruno, but Bruno simply ignored him, which made Jesse more and more anxious. He knew that if Bruno continued to hold this attitude, then he would definitely anger Edgar and Shu Shu again later on. At that time . . . if Shu Shu refused to help Bruno restore his beast core, what should they do?
 
However, he did not know how to placate Bruno, and he did not even understand why Bruno was angry.
 
Edgar, who was watching this scene, suddenly felt a little funny.
 
He had long known that these two beastmen were a couple, and it seemed that their relationship was also pretty good? Nonetheless, they might be able to maintain this relationship while they were both fallen beasts staying on the Fallen Beast Planet, but how about later?
 
He thought that if they really wanted to go on, they had to make a decision and invested something in their relationship . . . .
 
"Give him your beast bead. He’ll definitely stop being angry." Edgar wrote some words on the ground using his tail and turned toward Jesse.
 
Jesse read the words that Edgar wrote down and went blank. Giving his beast bead to Bruno? Although he and Bruno had become fallen beasts, but they still had the beast beads. They did not think much about it before because they had become fallen beasts after all, and this thing was completely pointless. Now though . . . .
 
Jesse was not stupid. After mulling over it, he suddenly understood that Bruno would be like this because he was uneasy. In addition, he had been cold to Bruno because he felt that Bruno had behaved unreasonably, which probably made him even more uneasy.
 
The beast bead was very important to him. Every beastman knew that they had to keep the beast bead safe because it was to be given to their most beloved sub-beastmen in the future. But now he . . . .
 
Jesse opened his mouth and spat out his beast bead. He and Bruno had been together for so many years, and they had spent the hardest years together. In the future, he would never be able to find a sub-beastman again . . . . And undoubtedly, those sub-beastmen would not want to be together with him either.
 
Bruno stared at the beast bead in front of him, and his eyes were bright. His body hurt very much, and the areas that were whipped by Edgar were even more sore as well as painful, but he no longer feel them.
 
The lion, who was just now still lying on the ground and looking like he had only a breath of life, suddenly stood up with vigor thoroughly restored. He shot a glance at Jesse and “humphed”. After that, he too spat out his beast bead and picked up Jesse’s beast bead with his mouth in turn. Then he turned round and pranced away, hips swinging and butt twisting.
 
Oh my, he actually didn't think about this before . . . . He should have let Jesse hand over his beast bead earlier. This way, he could have already set his heart at rest long before!
 
Bruno was thinking this way, and suddenly, a snake tail whipped past and pulled him back all at once.
 
Jesse smirked and ate Bruno's beast bead, then he came to Bruno’s side and rubbed against Bruno. In response, Bruno went straight into his arms.
 
It turned out that coaxing someone was so simple. It was just the price was a bit big, giving away the beast bead . . . . Jesse sighed darkly and began to lick the wounds on Bruno’s body.
 
Not far away, Ian, who was watching this scene, smirked. Edgar actually gave others such an idea to coax someone . . . . Speaking of it, he would not have given Shu Shu the beast bead just because he had wanted to coax Shu Shu, right?
 


Author’s note:
Little snake: The game I liked the most when I was a child was to play chase with Mother. It’s very fun! It’s a pity that Father would always grab me midway.
