96. Hamster Little Beastman
The three spaceships slowly landed and stopped in the desert area near the newly built base. After the spaceships were settled, people who had experienced the long interstellar voyage could hardly wait to get off the spaceships.
The gravity and the air on the Fallen Beast Planet were not the same at all as in the capital star, and nor were they the same as the environment simulated on board the spaceships. After the doors of the spaceships were opened, a large number of people on the spaceships slowed down to acclimatize themselves, and then they saw yellow sand as far as the eye could see.
There was no desert in the capital star. This desert on the Fallen Beast Planet made many people exclaim in astonishment. After that, they saw many fallen beasts in the distance.
This planet really deserved to be called the Fallen Beast Planet; there were actually so many fallen beasts here!
"Your Imperial Highness, Imperial Guard Kevin reports to you." A handsome young man jumped down from the spaceship belonging to the imperial family, stood in front of Edgar, and saluted Edgar. Seeing Edgar keep a humanoid form, his hands trembled slightly, and he blurted out excitedly, "Your Imperial Highness, have you recovered? It’s really great!"
When the imperial guard was in the capital star, he was responsible for protecting the imperial family, and his relationship with the imperial family had always been very good. Kevin was once Edgar's junior schoolmate, so his relationship with Edgar was even closer.
"Kevin." Edgar nodded at Kevin and then ordered someone to unload everything Kevin brought from the spaceship.
Kevin brought many people, including doctors and childcare experts, but most of them were soldiers. The soldiers were well-adapted to interstellar travel and also very orderly. They quickly transported the supplies after the spaceship stopped, and everything looked well-organized.
Everything was clear and in good order here, but the other two spaceships there looked a little chaotic.
The civilian spaceship was organized by an interstellar adventure group. Among them were many adventurers, who were very curious about the Fallen Beast Planet and wanted to come to the Fallen Beast Planet to take a look, as well as some families of the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet.
The long interstellar voyage made the people on this spaceship a little dispirited and listless. They scrambled to get off the spaceship early without giving thought to others and caused a small riot. After leaving the spaceship, most of them still looked blank, obviously unsure of what to do and where to go next.
As for the private spaceship, two beastmen came down from it as soon as it stopped, and now they were anxiously looking everywhere for a doctor. Apparently, the owner of the spaceship was sick.
The Fallen Beast Planet currently lacked management. Edgar did not want too many people to come here and was not particularly welcoming to the two spaceships. But people had already come, and he also couldn’t ignore them.
After telling the soldiers to register the people coming down from the civilian spaceship and persuade them to keep staying on the spaceship as well as letting Reynolds take Jones to check out the private spaceship, Edgar finally waited for Shu Shu’s arrival.
"Edgar, there’re a lot of delicious things?" Shu Shu ran a little hurriedly, eyes as bright as the full moon.
"Yeah." Edgar nodded. He had already ordered someone to bring the fine food and set it aside earlier. Now, seeing Shu Shu coming over, he immediately stuffed an enormous fresh-keeping box into Shu Shu's hands.
Opening the fresh-keeping box, Shu Shu saw all sorts of desserts and fruits.
This fresh-keeping box had a freezing effect, so the desserts and fruits inside were a bit iced. Shu Shu took a piece of dessert from the box, put it in his mouth, and immediately closed his eyes in satisfaction.
This dessert was an ice cream cake, which was icy cold and tasted very, very delicious when eaten in the blistering hot and dry desert. It was simply yummy.
After eating the cake, Shu Shu quickly chose a sugar ball with a layer of crunchy nuts on the outside . . . . The outer layer of the sugar ball was very crispy, but the filling was a liquid with a strong milk flavor . . . . Shu Shu did not know exactly what the liquid was, but he knew that it was icy-cold and particularly delicious.
Shu Shu began to stuff food into his mouth incessantly. Some were eaten by him, and some were stored by him. After he ate for a while, a pair of small hands suddenly grabbed him, and then a child hugged his leg.
"Mum . . . Mum . . . ." Xiao Bao hugged Shu Shu's leg and uttered some simple syllables. He kept swallowing his saliva as he stared at the food box in Shu Shu's hand. Recently, he had been staying in the spirit gathering formation every day, and the duration in which he turned into a human form was getting longer.
Could children eat dessert? How much could they eat? Shu Shu did not dare to feed Xiao Bao too many snacks. He finally took out a fruit and stuffed it into Xiao Bao's mouth.
As a beastman, Xiao Bao was not particularly fond of eating fruits, but he had very few chances to eat fruits on the Fallen Beast Planet, and the taste of those fruits was basically not so good, so now the fragrant and sweet fruit in his mouth made him like it very much. He immediately opened his mouth wide and continued to demand for more.
Shu Shu stuffed him with another one.
Shu Shu himself ate three, fed the child one, and then picked another fruit for the child to eat. It did not take long for all the food in the food box to be eaten up.
Edgar took the empty food box in Shu Shu's hand and stuffed him with a full one.
"You’re really good, Edgar!" Shu Shu took the food box and kissed Edgar happily.
Shu Shu's soft lips fell on his face, making his face numb and his heart tingle . . . . Edgar could not do anything in the public place with numerous people, so he just picked Xiao Bao up and kissed his face, tasting some fruit juice in the kiss.
"Edgar." Just as their family of three were being joyous and harmonious, a voice suddenly intruded.
This voice was somewhat familiar. Shu Shu, who was busy eating, turned his head and found that the person who came over was actually Myer.
In Shu Shu's memory, Myer was full of grandeur, but now he looked wan and sallow and had lost a lot of weight. Nevertheless, all of this did not reduce his looks into a sick beauty. He looked at Edgar with joy, and tears emerged in his eyes uncontrolled, but he still managed to restrain himself in the end and did not shed any tears. After calming down, the excited expression on his face was also collected.
"Myer?" Edgar glanced at Myer in surprise and then looked behind Myer, only to realize that the private spaceship belonged to Myer.
As the son of a duke, and very talented at that, it was not strange at all for Myer to have a private spaceship. But he actually didn’t expect that Myer would go so far as to rush over here from thousands of miles away.
"I heard that your beast core’s broken . . . . Are you all right?" Myer's voice somewhat quavered, but when Edgar listened carefully, he could not hear it again.
"I'm fine. Shu Shu helped me restore it." Edgar said; his expression was very gentle when he mentioned Shu Shu. A second later, he remembered something. "You came to find Calvin? He's over there."
In Edgar's impression, Myer and Calvin's relationship had always been very good, and Calvin also liked Meyer . . . . He regarded these two men as a couple.
Myer stopped breathing for an instant and then laughed bitterly.
After he knew that Edgar had an accident, he was very worried and rushed over here from thousands of miles away. He fell ill on the road and even had to be supported to come down from the spaceship. As a result, this was what he got in the end.
Although he had long realized that he and Edgar were no longer possible, but it was not until this moment that all his unwillingness disappeared completely.
Edgar really didn't think of him at all.
Myer raised his head and saw Calvin standing nearby staring at him. He took a deep breath and then walked towards Calvin.
The arrival of these three spaceships brought a burgeoning vitality to the base.
Although there were many fallen beasts in this base before, but because the fallen beasts could not speak, it made this place looked more like a large zoo than a human base. Now was different though; there were a lot of people and human voices here.
Some beastmen and sub-beastmen who came to find their fallen beast relatives brought out a lot of laughter in the base after getting reunited with their fallen beast relatives. Of course, some people were happy, some were anxious, and some who did not find their close relatives in the base ultimately looked sad.
But Edgar had no time to take care of all this because he and Shu Shu's second child was about to come out of the shell.
This child had stayed in Shu Shu's belly for a relatively long time, but after being birthed by Shu Shu, his development speed inside the eggshell was faster than Xiao Bao’s.
As a matter of fact, the egg could already move not long after being put in the spirit gathering formation. And now, there was a crack appearing on the eggshell.
Many people saw the moment Xiao Bao was born, but Shu Shu and Edgar did not intend to let others see the birth of this child—maybe a sub-beastman would come out of the egg, and since a sub-beastman baby was born naked, how could they let him be seen by irrelevant people?
The egg was held in Shu Shu’s arms while being gently caressed and stroked by Edgar. Both of them were constantly inputting spiritual power into the egg . . . yet the egg’s speed of breaking the shell was still very slow. It seemed that he was not in the slightest hurry to come out.
"Why’s this child so slow in breaking the shell?" Having waited for quite a long time without seeing the crack widen, Shu Shu was a little depressed. "I’m hungry."
"I'll get you something to eat." Hearing that Shu Shu was hungry, Edgar immediately went to the kitchen. It did not take long for him to come back in with some piping hot food in both hands.
There were two chefs among the people who came this time. They were now responsible for cooking for Shu Shu and Xiao Bao to ensure that whenever Shu Shu wanted to eat, the food would be prepared quickly.
Holding the child, Shu Shu started to eat the food in front of him.
There was also rice in the Beastman Empire. Since Shu Shu preferred rice to other staple foods, the chef often cooked rice for him to eat. Today, the chef cooked fried rice.
Fried rice with a lot of ingredients smelled especially fragrant, and Shu Shu’s saliva was about to flow out . . . .
"I love you. I’m in love with you. Just like mice love rice . . . ." Shu Shu hummed a song and gobbled up the fried rice in front of him. As he ate happily, the egg in his hand suddenly produced a scratching sound.
The child inside the egg seemed to be scratching the eggshell . . . . Shu Shu stopped eating and stared at the egg instead, fixing his attention on the egg.
The child's movement was getting bigger and bigger, and the crack was also getting bigger and bigger. Suddenly, a very small hole appeared in the eggshell.
"The child’s coming out!" Shu Shu stared at the egg excitedly. He had already prepared himself for seeing a snake head drill out of the small hole. But he did not expect that after the small hole became bigger, what extended from the inside was actually a small white paw.
Paw? So . . . it was not a sub-beastman but a beastman again? Seeing this scene, Shu Shu and Edgar were terribly disappointed but also a little curious—Edgar and the little snake were both black, and their paws were also black. Why was it a white paw that stretched out this time? Was the child genetically mutated? Some doubt appeared in Shu Shu's heart, and at that moment, that paw thrust out again . . . .
This . . . seemed to look different from Edgar's paws?
How could this be? Why would this child not look like his father, ah?
Shu Shu frowned, a bit puzzled. Edgar, however, was pleasantly surprised and stated, "Shu Shu, this child is like you!"
"Like me?" Shu Shu was startled and only then realized that the paw looked like a hamster paw.
There was a sudden surge of joy in his heart, and for a moment, he wished he could pry open the egg and take a look at the child inside. Of course, he still curbed his impulse in the end—helping the child to open the eggshell was disadvantageous to the child; he certainly shouldn’t do such a thing.
He actually gave birth to a little hamster this time! A hamster, ah! Watching the little paw that was struggling with the eggshell, Shu Shu felt his heart melt.
This was his little baby and also the cutest little baby in this world . . . . Really, why were these beast people all oviparous? Their hamster family was always viviparous. As a matter of fact, wasn’t making the little hamster crawl out of the eggshell the same as tormenting him?
Shu Shu felt very sorry for his own child. Just now, the hole in the eggshell got a little bigger, and at the same time, a tiny mouth that belonged to a hamster poked out of the hole, and a pink little nose sniffed in, apparently breathing outside air.
"It's a little hamster! It’s really a little hamster!" Shu Shu was extremely happy.
Edgar was also very happy. He was very fond of little hamsters now. However . . . when this child was born, it was in a hamster form. So, he was a hamster beastman?
A hamster beastman, ah . . . . Edgar glanced at Shu Shu, somewhat worried.
In fact, Shu Shu really wanted to say that he was still very strong, but he was a hamster, and his courage was too small, so this strength would often not come to light. If his child was a hamster beastman . . . .
Edgar tried to imagine Shu Shu doing his many antics in a tall and sturdy beastman body. After turning it over in his mind, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He did not get into a tangle when he knew that Shu Shu was a beastman, but he was somewhat thrown off balance over the possibility that he might have a beastman son who was not like a beastman.
Anyway . . . Shu Shu's situation was very special, so maybe his child would also be very special?
Edgar felt it was too early to start getting into a tangle, and his gaze soon fell on the egg again.
The paw sticking out of the eggshell was very small. Obviously, the child inside the eggshell was also very small . . . . Thinking that he would have a tiny hamster child who could be held in the palm of his hand, Edgar felt his heart melt and looked forward to the child even more.
And at this time, the hole in the eggshell was a little bigger, and then a tiny hamster head poked out from the hole completely. There was no hair on his head, making people can see the pink skin, which totally gave the impression that you should not touch it rashly . . . .

A Guide to - 95
Unedited chapter
95. There Are Spaceships Coming
It was not easy to train a group of fallen beasts. After all, their beast forms and types were so varied that there was no way at all to train them uniformly.
Anyway, Reynolds had no plan to train them into a regular army. He just wanted to let those fallen beasts vent their vigorous energy and understand a few rules, which was a very simple matter actually.
At first, these fallen beasts were a complete mess during training, but now they could already line up into neat and tidy rows. Even more, they could make many extremely difficult moves according to orders, which was a huge progress.
These fallen beasts were trained during the day, and at night, Reynolds would show them movies outdoors, making them watch various videos that the military got for the soldiers to watch.
These videos were specifically selected for soldiers to watch and had passed censorship. Other than that, all of them were to promote positive energy and also proclaim some spirits such as "selfless dedication" and so on.
These things were not too suitable for ordinary people, but it was just right for these fallen beasts to watch. The fallen beasts had encountered huge changes and had been abandoned by the entire society. Many of them hated normal beastmen and sub-beastman out of jealousy. With this kind of mentality, they were unsuitable to re-enter society.
Right now, there was no way to do psychological coaching on them, so Reynolds could only do this first.
This evening, the outdoor cinema was in operation as usual.
The desert area seldom had rain and snow. Occasionally, there were rain and snow, but they only fell for a moment. Reynolds did not prepare accommodation for the fallen beasts and just randomly chose a place to put the projector to show the movies. The fallen beasts could only find a space to lie down on their own, but they were already very satisfied.
As fallen beasts, they had no such thing like entertainment before.
What was shown tonight was not a movie but a documentary video instead.
Don't look at how powerful the Beastman Empire was now, and how there were no neighboring countries that dared to invade them. Once, they had also encountered all kinds of troubles. When they had just stepped into the interstellar era, the Beastman Empire had even suffered colonial rule.
The space aliens invaded and occupied the mother star of the Beastman Empire, captured the beastmen to work for them exploring new planets, and even regarded sub-beastmen who retained some beast characteristics as playthings while arresting and taking away the beastmen to the fighting arena and making them duel . . . .
Later, His Imperial Majesty the Emperor of that time led numerous beastmen to rebel. Only then did the Beastman Empire break free from the humiliating colonial rule. Afterwards, the beastmen also fought countless battles in order to be able to obtain more living spaces.
During those battles, many beastmen died, and there were many others who were wounded and became fallen beasts. However, the beastmen still did not give up and charged into the battlefield wave after wave.
Many of the battles had been filmed, and the video they were watching today was cut out from those filmed battles.
Although the fallen beasts had gone through arduous training during the day, but they already recovered now and were quietly staring at the huge screen not far away.
They used to think that they were very pitiful, but now it seemed that . . . they were actually still lucky.
Although they had become fallen beasts, but they could live freely on the Fallen Beast Planet, and they did not have to be like those beastmen in wartime, who were considered as cannon fodders to charge at the forefront. Furthermore, they even had hope of restoring their beast cores.
The male lion Bruno, a fallen beast who had followed Reynolds for many years, was in the leading position among the lion-shaped fallen beasts who were now divided, and he also occupied the best position when watching the video.
He had always scoffed at the movies Reynolds made them watch and even vaguely thought that this was an evil design of the imperial family, whom wanted to brainwash them. Naturally, he had never taken those movies seriously.
But today, his whole attention was finally attracted by the content of the video.
He even could not help but feel ashamed and remorseful after watching the battles in the video.
"Bruno." Jesse, who had turned into his lion form, came to Bruno’s side and slowly licked Bruno's hair. "Don’t worry, your beast core will also be restored after a few more days."
Edgar originally said that he would only help Bruno restore his beast core last. Bruno had never been chosen in the past few days, so Jesse was worried that he was unhappy and came to comfort him.
"I'm fine." Bruno said. "I’m not worried . . . . I’m really not."
Saying so, Bruno lay on the ground, the emotion showing in his eyes complicated beyond words. He had been chided several times but always felt that he had done nothing wrong, and he had even been rather opposed to Edgar and others. But now, as he looked back and thought deeply about it, he suddenly realized that many things he had done seemed to be a little self-righteous, arrogant, and childish.
He always had a very strong opinion against sub-beastmen because of some bitter experiences after becoming a fallen beast. Yet if he thought about it carefully, even if his mother had made him bitterly disappointed, but not all sub-beastmen were like that.
Turning his body around, Bruno leaned on Jesse and stopped talking. He secretly vowed that he would definitely perform well later and make Shu Shu sit up and take notice of him, so he could get the chance to restore his beast core early.
Bruno was in a complicated mood. Reynolds, however, was very excited at the moment.
There were countless fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet. All the fallen beasts who followed him were basically sane and clear headed, but a lot of the fallen beasts who lived in various settlements had begun to suffer from dementia and even become crazy from time to time.
These fallen beasts barely remembered that they were beastmen and not real beasts. After the news about Shu Shu being able to restore the beast core spread, they also came here, but they caused a lot of trouble after arriving.
Reynolds had been very anxious before. He worried that, in the end, these fallen beasts might not be able to become beastmen again because of their unsound minds. Now though . . . .
Since Shu Shu created that so-called spirit gathering formation, these fallen beasts unexpectedly looked a lot more clear headed. Among them was a fallen beast whom once was his friend and had long forgotten about him, but now he remembered him again.
Learning this fact, Reynolds felt indescribably happy and also admired Shu Shu very much. Thinking that Shu Shu seemed to like watching those fallen beasts being trained in various ways, he took out a handheld computer and then began to design all kinds of new moves for the fallen beasts so that they could please Shu Shu when they underwent training.
As a beastman, it was only right to work hard to make the sub-beastman happy . . . . Reynolds earnestly designed highly difficult moves for those fallen beasts.
He was also for these fallen beasts’ own good, ah! Almost half of the fallen beasts were single, so they would definitely try to pursue a sub-beastman after becoming beastmen again. If they learned a lot now, later when the sub-beastman was being unhappy, wouldn’t they be able to rely on these lessons to coax the sub-beastman?
He provoked Jones’ anger yesterday, and Jones did not let him enter their room. In the end, he certainly relied on performing a sideshow and even wagged his tail like a pet dog, which made Jones can't help but burst out laughing, to climb up Jones' bed.
Shu Shu felt that his recent life was simply very rich.
He could accompany the children to play, watch the fallen beasts train, and study the formation method. At night, he could pull Edgar to bring the children to watch a movie and then do things that were not suitable for children with Edgar afterwards . . . .
Such a life, Shu Shu felt that even if he lived it for a long time, he would not feel bored!
Shu Shu thought so, but Edgar's thought was completely different from him.
Although the Fallen Beast Planet was good, but life in the capital star was more convenient and allowed the children to get better education . . . . As a father of two children, Edgar felt that he had to redouble his efforts to resolve the fallen beast problem early so he could take the children back to the capital star as soon as possible.
In the beginning, Edgar could only help ten fallen beasts restore their beast cores every day. Over time, this number changed. Nowadays, Edgar could already help twenty fallen beasts restore their beast cores every day!
In this way, animals that suddenly became naked men as they walked around the base were getting even more . . . .
These beastmen, whose beast cores had not yet stabilized and who were temporarily unable to control their physical changes, initially lived together with other fallen beasts. However, after Edgar bumped into transforming men twice and found that Shu Shu actually started to observe those fallen beasts’ bodies with full interest, he kicked all these men out without the slightest hesitation, making them live in other areas while hunting for meat as well.
Of course, he found a high-sounding reason for this—he made this decision for those beastmen’s own good, so as to make them adapt to their bodies as quickly as possible!
A new day came, and outside the house where Edgar and Shu Shu lived, twenty huge beasts gathered together at dawn.
These beasts were huge in size, and a sneeze from one could make a hole in the sandy ground. However, they were currently motionless and, surprisingly, had not made a single sound.
They were all waiting for Edgar and Shu Shu to wake up, hoping to restore their beast cores soon.
When Edgar and Shu Shu came out of the house, the twenty fallen beasts fixed their gazes at them simultaneously. Those fervent gazes made people can’t help but feel spooked, but fortunately, whether it was Edgar or Shu Shu, they were already used to being watched attentively like this.
Edgar looked at the twenty fallen beasts in front of him and saw Bruno, the lion he was very familiar with, among them, but he did not say anything. He greeted these people and let them follow him into a room in the storied building next to him.
In this room, there was a highly effective spirit gathering formation, which had gathered a lot of spiritual power. As soon as these fallen beasts went in, they felt indescribably comfortable . . . .
Twenty fallen beasts soon regained their beast cores.
After completing today's task and using up all his spiritual power, Edgar was just planning to go back and think of a method to improve the efficiency of the beast core restoration, and then he saw Calvin coming over from a distance.
When Chris took Ian to leave the Fallen Beast Planet, he took away several spaceships and many people, but he did not take Calvin and the Duke of Mund.
Edgar had been very busy. Moreover, Jonathan had almost killed his family, which made him take offense to some extent, so he had not tried to find Calvin, and Calvin also avoided him deliberately. As a result, after the two men met again, they actually never communicated with each other.
Calvin had lost a lot of weight, and the former playboy looked very wan and sallow now. Edgar glanced at him and called him, "Calvin."
"Your Imperial Highness." Calvin saluted Edgar and looked at Edgar with shame in his eyes. He always considered Edgar as his best friend. Edgar as well as the emperor and the empress had also taken very good care of him. And as a result? His mother had actually caused Edgar to almost die twice.
"What’re you going to do in the future?" Edgar asked.
"I’m going to go to the army." Calvin replied.
Calvin had been the police chief of the capital star and had a pretty high status, but now he was already sacked. If he entered the army, he might have to start from the bottom . . . . Edgar originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Calvin's resolute expression, he choked back the words he was going to say and only said, "Work hard."
"I will." Calvin took a deep breath.
Edgar did not say anything else. He knew that his relationship with Calvin certainly couldn’t go back to the way it was before. After all, what Jonathan had done could not be utterly erased.
The two men looked at each other silently. At this moment, a soldier of the Imperial Fleet arrived in front of Edgar. "Your Imperial Highness, there’re spaceship coming to the Fallen Beast Planet!"
"What kind of spaceship?" Edgar asked.
"One of them is an imperial spaceship, and the other two are a civilian spaceship and a private spaceship with no symbol on it." The soldier stated.
Before Chris returned to the capital star, he had already contacted the capital star using the military emergency communication channel to inform the situation here and let the capital star there sent some supplies.
The Fallen Beast Planet was a little far from the capital star. It was estimated that Chris had not yet reached the capital star now, but the supplies sent by the capital star should indeed have arrived.
There were really a lot of things in them that were in short supply. It was said that there were several professional childcare experts . . . . Edgar immediately asked, "Where’re the spaceships ?"
"The spaceships are still outside the atmosphere and can land at any time." The soldier replied.
"Arrange a landing right away." Edgar said and recalled something. "You find someone to notify the crown princess." He had ordered people to prepare a lot of fine food to be brought along. Shu Shu would definitely like it.

If they learned a lot now, later when the sub-beastman was being unhappy, wouldn’t they be able to rely on these lessons to coax the sub-beastman?
He provoked Jones’ anger yesterday, and Jones did not let him enter their room. In the end, he certainly relied on performing a sideshow and even wagged his tail like a pet dog, which made Jones can't help but burst out laughing, to climb up Jones' bed.
Shu Shu felt that his recent life was simply very rich.
He could accompany the children to play, watch the fallen beasts train, and study the formation method. At night, he could pull Edgar to bring the children to watch a movie and then do things that were not suitable for children with Edgar afterwards . . . .
Such a life, Shu Shu felt that even if he lived it for a long time, he would not feel bored!
Shu Shu thought so, but Edgar's thought was completely different from him.
Although the Fallen Beast Planet was good, but life in the capital star was more convenient and allowed the children to get better education . . . . As a father of two children, Edgar felt that he had to redouble his efforts to resolve the fallen beast problem early so he could take the children back to the capital star as soon as possible.
In the beginning, Edgar could only help ten fallen beasts restore their beast cores every day. Over time, this number changed. Nowadays, Edgar could already help twenty fallen beasts restore their beast cores every day!
In this way, animals that suddenly became naked men as they walked around the base were getting even more . . . .
These beastmen, whose beast cores had not yet stabilized and who were temporarily unable to control their physical changes, initially lived together with other fallen beasts. However, after Edgar bumped into transforming men twice and found that Shu Shu actually started to observe those fallen beasts’ bodies with full interest, he kicked all these men out without the slightest hesitation, making them live in other areas while hunting for meat as well.
Of course, he found a high-sounding reason for this—he made this decision for those beastmen’s own good, so as to make them adapt to their bodies as quickly as possible!
A new day came, and outside the house where Edgar and Shu Shu lived, twenty huge beasts gathered together at dawn.
These beasts were huge in size, and a sneeze from one could make a hole in the sandy ground. However, they were currently motionless and, surprisingly, had not made a single sound.
They were all waiting for Edgar and Shu Shu to wake up, hoping to restore their beast cores soon.
When Edgar and Shu Shu came out of the house, the twenty fallen beasts fixed their gazes at them simultaneously. Those fervent gazes made people can’t help but feel spooked, but fortunately, whether it was Edgar or Shu Shu, they were already used to being watched attentively like this.
Edgar looked at the twenty fallen beasts in front of him and saw Bruno, the lion he was very familiar with, among them, but he did not say anything. He greeted these people and let them follow him into a room in the storied building next to him.
In this room, there was a highly effective spirit gathering formation, which had gathered a lot of spiritual power. As soon as these fallen beasts went in, they felt indescribably comfortable . . . .
Twenty fallen beasts soon regained their beast cores.
After completing today's task and using up all his spiritual power, Edgar was just planning to go back and think of a method to improve the efficiency of the beast core restoration, and then he saw Calvin coming over from a distance.
When Chris took Ian to leave the Fallen Beast Planet, he took away several spaceships and many people, but he did not take Calvin and the Duke of Mund.
Edgar had been very busy. Moreover, Jonathan had almost killed his family, which made him take offense to some extent, so he had not tried to find Calvin, and Calvin also avoided him deliberately. As a result, after the two men met again, they actually never communicated with each other.
Calvin had lost a lot of weight, and the former playboy looked very wan and sallow now. Edgar glanced at him and called him, "Calvin."
"Your Imperial Highness." Calvin saluted Edgar and looked at Edgar with shame in his eyes. He always considered Edgar as his best friend. Edgar as well as the emperor and the empress had also taken very good care of him. And as a result? His mother had actually caused Edgar to almost die twice.
"What’re you going to do in the future?" Edgar asked.
"I’m going to go to the army." Calvin replied.
Calvin had been the police chief of the capital star and had a pretty high status, but now he was already sacked. If he entered the army, he might have to start from the bottom . . . . Edgar originally wanted to say something, but when he saw Calvin's resolute expression, he choked back the words he was going to say and only said, "Work hard."
"I will." Calvin took a deep breath.
Edgar did not say anything else. He knew that his relationship with Calvin certainly couldn’t go back to the way it was before. After all, what Jonathan had done could not be utterly erased.
The two men looked at each other silently. At this moment, a soldier of the Imperial Fleet arrived in front of Edgar. "Your Imperial Highness, there’re spaceship coming to the Fallen Beast Planet!"
"What kind of spaceship?" Edgar asked.
"One of them is an imperial spaceship, and the other two are a civilian spaceship and a private spaceship with no symbol on it." The soldier stated.
Before Chris returned to the capital star, he had already contacted the capital star using the military emergency communication channel to inform the situation here and let the capital star there sent some supplies.
The Fallen Beast Planet was a little far from the capital star. It was estimated that Chris had not yet reached the capital star now, but the supplies sent by the capital star should indeed have arrived.
There were really a lot of things in them that were in short supply. It was said that there were several professional childcare experts . . . . Edgar immediately asked, "Where’re the spaceships ?"
"The spaceships are still outside the atmosphere and can land at any time." The soldier replied.
"Arrange a landing right away." Edgar said and recalled something. "You find someone to notify the crown princess." He had ordered people to prepare a lot of fine food to be brought along. Shu Shu would definitely like it.

A Guide to - 94
Unedited chapter
94. Watching the Circus Show
Edgar and Shu Shu returned after digging the spirit stones.
They found a spirit stone mine on that mountain. There were not many spirit stones in it, and the spirit stones did not contain much spiritual power either, but for them, it was already a huge surprise.
Edgar had re-cultivated into the jīndān period. For this reason alone, compared to Shu Shu, it was much simpler for Edgar to help those fallen beasts restore their beast cores. Now that they had some spirit stones, it was even more convenient . . . . Of course, if they wanted to make good use of the spirit stones, they also needed to do some studying.
After returning to their place of residence, Edgar and Shu Shu took a nap first and then began to learn the formation method—this was considered to be the main way to use spirit stones.
Shu Shu wrote down all the information he had obtained from his red bead. He recorded them on paper one by one and studied them together with Edgar. When he came across a part he did not understand, he would either find the answer from the red bead or try it a few more times.
The two of them studied very seriously. Within a few days, they had learned to arrange the simplest spirit gathering formation using the spirit stones. After the first spirit gathering formation was arranged, Shu Shu immediately put the little snake and the egg in it.
Shu Shu was initially a bit afraid of Xiao Bao, this little snake, and he actually didn’t adapt too well to being a father. After all, the child came too sudden. But Xiao Bao always hung around at his side these days, and after taking care of Xiao Bao for a while, he slowly accepted the child . . . or the snake.
"Xiao Bao, when you go to sleep later, you’ll sleep here, okay?" Putting Xiao Bao into the spirit gathering formation, Shu Shu smiled and talked to the little snake, who was already doubled in size.
The little snake nodded while his eyes narrowed in concentration and his body started to sway, looking very, very comfortable.
"Does Xiao Bao like it here?" Shu Shu asked again.
The little snake quickly nodded.
"Then Xiao Bao, you stay by yourself for a while first. Mother will help you make a bigger one!" Shu Shu reached out and stroked the little snake's smooth head—his child was really smart; it had not been long since he was born, and he could already understand what he said!
Although this child looked unattractive, but at least he was smart, ah. If he had had children with a female hamster, he probably would’ve been still worrying about how to open the children’s spiritual wisdom to prolong their life span. And now? In a few years, he would be able to make the child work and support him to live comfortably!
Imagining the beautiful scene of himself reclining comfortably and calling the child out when he wanted to eat something and the child obligingly coming to bring him food, Shu Shu looked at the child with a softer gaze. He forgot that, in fact, the robots could already do a good job helping him with such things.
Chatting with Xiao Bao, Shu Shu continued to study the formation method.
Strangely, Shu Shu unexpectedly learned better than Edgar when it came to the subject of formation method . . . .
When Edgar laid out a formation, he always couldn’t help but want to lay out the formation neat and tidy. He subconsciously had to ensure that the distance between each spirit stone was the same and study why this kind of layout could gather spiritual power together . . . .
Wouldn’t being so fussy lessen one’s learning speed?
Shu Shu, however, was different. He often laid out formations based on feeling, and in the end, he actually did better than Edgar.
When Shu Shu began to learn the second formation method, Edgar was still having a go at the spirit gathering formation and even failed again.
"Granted, the size of these spirit stones is indeed different. But even if the size is the same, the amount of spiritual power contained in them isn’t the same. It’s really too difficult to keep a balance. With great difficulty, I finally calculated the right distance between these piles of spirit stones to make a formation. But if the piles of spirit stones are changed, then I have to recalculate." Edgar stared at the spirit stones in front of him with a tangled feeling.
". . ." Shu Shu goggled at Edgar. He watched Edgar use the computer to simulate the formation method and draw the formation method diagram with a weird expression. "Won’t this fussing around only make it overly complicated? Also . . . according to the red bead, those cultivators can’t always lay out a formation on level ground. Sometimes they also have to lay out a formation when cultivating in the wilds. They can even lay out a formation when fighting with others. You doing it this way . . ." Totally wouldn’t cut it. In addition, you had to calculate the size of each spirit stone and the amount of spiritual power it contained first and then use a computer to figure out the appropriate placement?
Edgar was silent. He also knew that it was unacceptable for him to do so, but he really couldn't understand this formation arrangement stuff.
How could an arrangement of a few stones produce all kinds of magical effects?
"Try to feel it with spiritual power. Sometimes you just have to rely on feeling." Shu Shu said and then looked at Edgar proudly. "Edgar, do you think I'm amazing? I’m smarter than you!"
"Yes, Shu Shu’s the smartest." Edgar could not help but hug Shu Shu and kiss him on the lips.
Shu Shu responded enthusiastically, groping Edgar's body and trying to seduce Edgar, yet Edgar remained unmoved—Shu Shu had just given birth to a child and had also been injured before, so it was better to do things slowly.
"Edgar, what's wrong with you? Why don't you want to mate?" Shu Shu was somewhat depressed. Shouldn't humans and beastmen be in heat all the time?
"You’ve just given birth to a child . . . ."
"I’ve fully recovered!" Shu Shu patted his chest and then rolled his eyes. "It shouldn’t be that you can’t do it, right?" According to his experience, which came from reading various novels, a man was most afraid of others saying that he could not do it. Once he was told so, he would definitely try to prove that he “could do it”.
They all said that poodles would hump everything and any time. In fact, hamsters also had a very strong desire, ah! Edgar surely couldn’t ignore him!
Edgar was indeed unable to control himself. He embraced Shu Shu and proved himself one time.
He definitely had no problem! In fact, he was almost stifled to death, but it had only been a few days since Shu Shu gave birth to an egg. He always felt that he was a little too beastly for putting his hand to Shu Shu just now.
At the end of the fun and invigorating sex, Shu Shu exhaled comfortably. "That’s really nice . . . . I was going to touch myself if you didn't come round . . . . But touching myself doesn’t feel this nice. After all, no one gives me spiritual power if I do it myself." When Edgar entered, he never forgot to give him spiritual power. He also never forgot to take care of him first and would even give him spiritual power ahead of time . . . . It was really pleasurable!
Edgar: ". . ."
Shu Shu did not want to have children anymore, and Edgar also didn't want Shu Shu to give birth to a child one after another. Therefore, although Edgar was excited, but he also took some appropriate measures and actually saved Shu Shu a lot of things. Not to mention other things, at least the clean up work was much easier. Shu Shu even directly refused to take a shower and just turned over and fell asleep.
Edgar took a shower and then lay behind Shu Shu and held Shu Shu in his arms, feeling contented.
After Edgar determined that he was not good at laying out formations, he handed over this work for Shu Shu to handle and started to study the various spirit grasses instead. Conveniently, he also thought of a method to turn his scales into fine powder.
The spiritual power in the spirit grass was difficult to preserve but easy to absorb, and you could eat the grass directly. Spirit stone, however, was different. The spiritual power in it would not dissipate easily, but if you ate the stone directly . . . . Except for some special races, nobody could digest stone, right?
Edgar thought of quite a lot of methods before he finally found a method to process the spirit grass without letting the spiritual power inside dissipate. And this method was borrowed from some alchemy recipes.
The spirit grass was made into a number of pills, and some of Edgar scales were also added into these pills . . . . After the preparatory work was done, Edgar found Reynolds and asked Reynolds to select ten fallen beasts. He was going to try to help these fallen beasts restore their beast cores.
Edgar said he could not guarantee that it would be successful, but the fallen beasts still scrambled for this opportunity. Soon, ten fallen beasts were presented in front of Edgar.
Edgar made these ten fallen beasts stay inside a spirit gathering formation. He then activated the spirit gathering formation and used the accumulated spiritual power to nourish these ten fallen beasts for a few hours. After these ten fallen beasts had recovered to their optimum state, he entered the spirit gathering formation and then gave each fallen beast a pill.
Didn’t they have to eat eggshell to restore their beast cores? Why did it change into a pill now? These ten fallen beasts were somewhat puzzled, but no one questioned it, and no one asked about the composition of the pill.
They ate the pills and continued to stay quiet. At this moment, Edgar started working . . . .
The beast cores of these ten fallen beasts were successfully restored, but their beast cores were very small. As a result, they were just like beastmen in their early years, unable to control their transformation.
This side effect was actually quite troublesome, but for these fallen beasts, it was not a big deal at all—as long as they could restore their beast cores, they were not afraid of anything!
Ten people's beast cores were restored in one go, which made the fallen beasts waiting to restore their beast cores in this newly built base go crazy.
"Ten people got their beast cores restored!"
"Maybe it'll be my turn before long!"
"I must perform well, and I won't be lazy anymore when training!"
. . . . . .
The fallen beasts were full of hope for life, and they were getting more and more energetic when they were training. Although their types were different, but they all listened to orders seriously and did their utmost to make all sorts of moves. They did not hesitate to do it even if they would be drained at the end of the day.
All beastmen liked to fight. But nowadays, the science and technology of the Beastman Empire were developing rapidly, and there were not many wars, so many beastmen had been living like a prince and never received high-intensity training. These fallen beasts were no exception, but now they were working hard to train and make themselves stronger . . . .
Shu Shu had arranged a huge spirit gathering formation using several football-sized spirit stones. The formation would be set up in the desert and would encompass the training ground that could accommodate tens of thousands of people. He planned to use spiritual power to improve the physique of those fallen beasts.
After doing all this, he sat on the high podium while holding the child in one hand and holding the egg in the other hand and watched the circus . . . no, watched the fallen beasts training.
Look at that group of tigers, they were walking on their feet!
Look at those lions, they were jumping into the ring of fire!
Look at those elephants, they were marching forward!
There were still many, many other animals, and all of them made all sorts of different postures . . . . On the earth, it was absolutely impossible to see so many animal performances at once, and it was even more impossible to see such a grand "circus show".
Shu Shu watched the show with keen interest and thought that it was extremely entertaining. Below, the fallen beasts who were training suddenly found that they seemed to be a lot more relaxed when they were training, and the speed in which their physical strength recovered had become faster.
They did not know the existence of the spirit gathering formation and only thought that they had become stronger after training. For a time, their interest increased greatly. After the daily training ended, some fallen beasts even agreed to stay put and then . . . began to fight.
This was a beast fighting show, ah! Shu Shu was even more pleased seeing this and even began to wonder whether he should encourage them and let them develop more performances.
Edgar, however, felt a little mixed up. His sub-beastman actually went to watch other beastmen all day long . . . . Otherwise, should he also join in and fight with others?

A Guide to - 93
Unedited chapter
93. Found the Spirit Stone
The aircraft used by Edgar and Shu Shu was very big. It was a jujube pit-type with a slightly pointed head and tail. In the front was the cockpit, while the round space in the middle was decorated into a room with a bed and a dining table as well as separated bathroom and kitchen. It was more convenient than RVs on the earth and good enough for a family of three to live in.
Of course, given that Edgar's build was too big, he usually could only sleep on the floor with the child or lie on the floor alone after looking on helplessly at Shu Shu sleeping on the bed with the humanoid child.
Now his hands and feet finally returned.
After carrying Shu Shu into the aircraft at lightning speed and putting the egg on the bed, Edgar carried Shu Shu into the narrow but multi-functional bathroom and helped Shu Shu clean up thoroughly.
"I can wash myself." Shu Shu felt extremely awkward being carried and washed by Edgar, whom had just transformed and did not wear any clothes.
He had not been intimate with Edgar for a long time, so them being this close together naturally gave rise to some indecent thoughts. But it was obviously not the time now.
"Soon, okay." Edgar said. He controlled the stream of water to wash Shu Shu squeaky clean, took out a bath towel to wrap Shu Shu up, and carried Shu Shu to the bed.
"This second egg looks exactly the same as that of Xiao Bao then." Finally leaving Edgar's arms, Shu Shu concealed his throbbing "little Shu Shu" with the bath towel, sat up, and turned his gaze toward the egg in front of Edgar.
However, he had barely spoken a word, and Edgar already covered him with a quilt and forced him to lie on the bed.
"You take a rest first." Edgar said and then looked for something to wipe the egg clean like he had done it numerous times.
Shu Shu felt that this egg was exactly the same as the one before, but Edgar felt that there was a big difference between these two eggs. Not to mention that the eggshell of this egg seemed to be not as hard as Xiao Bao’s eggshell.
Was this . . . because of congenital deficiency?
Although Xiao Bao had once been mistaken for a tumor and thus got his supply of spiritual power cut back by them, but Shu Shu had not sustained any injuries at least. It was different this time . . . .
Edgar wiped the egg while inputting spiritual power into the egg, wishing he could give all his spiritual power for the egg to absorb.
It seemed that Edgar would take care of the child but not his own affairs . . . . Shu Shu was a bit bored lying down on the bed, so he started to look for the little snake around.
"Xiao Bao, where’re you?" There was nothing inside the box that Edgar had prepared for Xiao Bao. Shu Shu was anxious and immediately called Xiao Bao, but he did not receive any response.
Although the little snake was naughty, but he usually wouldn’t run around all over the place and, according to reason, could not run out either—there was a robot guard at hand responsible for looking after him.
"Xiao Bao is missing?" Edgar was alarmed. He quickly checked the entire aircraft with his spiritual power but did not found Xiao Bao's presence on the aircraft.
These days, they always brought the child with them, took care of him very carefully, and basically wouldn’t leave him alone. When they went out to look for the spirit grass this time, they did not bring the child along because he happened to be sleeping. However, they opened the protective cover and also turned on the alarm system.
The protective cover was still there; the alarm system had not been touched, and the robot standing on the side had not reacted at all. How did the child suddenly disappear?
Edgar immediately switched on the aircraft’s monitoring and looked for Xiao Bao's traces on it. Only then did he find that Xiao Bao actually slithered out confidently by himself without any hindrance, and the robot had never notified them . . . .
How could this be? Edgar frowned but quickly remembered one thing—as long as the spiritual power was distributed around the body, they could achieve "undetectable" under most high-tech products. The little snake was born with spiritual power; although he had never done this before, but he could do it when he wanted to. He . . . should have run out on his own.
"I'm going to look for him!" Edgar scowled. As he was about to rush out, the protective cover suddenly moved.
A very small, black little snake carrying a beautiful glossy tiny stone crawled in from the outside. With his small size, he seemed to be very cautious as he crawled slowly while carrying the stone. But even then, the glossy tiny stone carried by him still slipped down several times. After that, he tried to clasp the stone with his two paws as he went forward, but the stone was too small and too smooth that it ended up rolling down from his paws.
The stone fell to the ground again and again, obviously making the little snake at a loss. After climbing up the aircraft with difficulty, he simply placed the stone on the ground and then pushed the stone forward with his snake head.
"Xiao Bao!" Shu Shu called out.
The little snake raised his head and glanced at Shu Shu. Then he suddenly turned into a person and crawled ahead to Shu Shu’s bed. His development speed was much faster than that of humans on the earth. Although he still couldn't do many things, but he could already crawl fast. After crawling to the bedside, he stood up by holding onto the bed and then showed a toothless smile at Shu Shu.
After smiling, he plopped down on the ground. Clutching the stone with his chubby little hand, he stood up again and handed the stone to Shu Shu.
Although the child only gave him a piece of stone, but Shu Shu felt his heart full to bursting—his child knew to give him things; he was really so cute!
Hugging the child and kissing the child's forehead, Shu Shu emotionally took the proffered stone . . . . Wait, this . . . this was not a stone at all!
Staring at the piece of round stone in his hand that was only as big as a thumbnail and looked like a white jade, Shu Shu was dumbfounded. This stone was full of spiritual power . . . . It seemed like the legendary . . . spirit stone?
"There’s spiritual power on this stone?" Edgar found it too.
"This is a spirit stone!" Shu Shu stated excitedly. A spirit stone, ah. The red bead in his body said that people in the cultivation circles all used spirit stones, and he finally saw one now.
Spirit stone? Edgar was momentarily astonished after hearing Shu Shu mention this thing. He and Shu Shu had really been very lucky recently!
Speaking of, when the Beastman Empire first dispatched people to investigate the natural resources on the Fallen Beast Planet, they had found some good-quality jade mines. It was likely that those so-called jade mines were in fact spirit stone mines, right?
While Shu Shu gave birth to the second egg and found the trace of spirit stone, in the desert where he, Edgar, and others had landed, a cleanup against all fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet was in progress.
The past management of the Fallen Beast Planet was very disorganized. It could even be said that there was no management at all. Reynolds could guarantee that all the fallen beasts who followed him were not bad people, but he did not dare to vouch for other fallen beasts. Now they were reviewing the identity of each fallen beast one by one and learning about the situation of each fallen beast from the fallen beasts who lived with them.
Those who were criminals before coming to the Fallen Beast Planet were the first to be picked out. After that, those who had bullied and even killed other fallen beasts after coming to the Fallen Beast Planet were also picked out.
Not every fallen beast could become a beastman again, and these guys had no chance at all.
Fallen beasts who had committed unpardonable crimes and had a criminal record were put under unified supervision. As for the rest of the fallen beasts . . . . They were drilled by Reynolds and the soldiers of the Imperial Fleet, who had nothing to do.
Of course, when they drilled these fallen beasts, they actually didn’t count on them to be able to come up with something and only wanted to make these very excited fallen beasts vent their excess energy during the drill—a group of energetic and exuberant fallen beasts crowded together would have an accident sooner or later, and unfortunately, how long it would take to restore their beast cores was still unknown.
"Mr. Reynolds, the guarded fallen beasts made trouble again. They want to escape." A captain of the Imperial Fleet hurriedly ran to Reynolds, who was drilling a group of fallen beasts.
"Can they escape?" Reynolds asked.
"They certainly cannot." The captain answered.
"In this case, no need to care about them. Those guys will be honest after being hungry for a few days." Renault said. Seeing that the fallen beasts who were being locked up still had energy to make trouble, it seemed that he was too lenient with them. Giving them meals was too good, so in this case . . . it might be better to starve them for a few days.
"Yes, Mr. Reynolds." Receiving the order, the captain immediately set off. Unexpectedly, as he stepped out, there was a sudden noise outside. At the same time, an aircraft flew over from a distance.
They were all very familiar with that aircraft. However, wasn't that the one they had left behind for the crown prince?
"It’s His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess on board the aircraft."
"His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess came back?"
"Is there someone else with restored beast core?"
. . . . . .
The fallen beasts who were gathered together for a drill talked with each other while watching the aircraft impatiently. And then they saw the aircraft stop under the huge spaceship.
The aircraft's door was opened, and a tall, handsome adult man walked out from within.
The man was hugging a child with his left arm and carrying an egg very carefully in his right hand. Who else if not Edgar?
Edgar had turned into a person?!
The crown princess had given birth again?!
"This boy looks very handsome, ah . . ." Reynolds raised his eyebrows in surprise when he saw Edgar's appearance. This guy Edgar looked even better than Chris. Fortunately, there was a large age gap between them. Otherwise, the number of sub-beastmen who had liked him in those days would have fallen to zero.
"It’s His Imperial Highness!" Some fallen beasts who had only come to the Fallen Beast Planet a few years ago stared at Edgar excitedly—they saw their idol!
"His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince is really on the Fallen Beast Planet!"
"The sub-beastman beside His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince is the crown princess who can help people restore their beast cores?"
"I didn’t expect that His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince would have a crown princess so soon . . . ."
. . . .
While the fallen beasts were talking spiritedly, they also paid attention to the egg in Edgar's hand.
"Another little prince was born?"
"That egg looks really beautiful!"
"I heard that it hasn't been long since the crown prince and the crown princess got married . . . . They already have two eggs in no time. I wonder how many more will be born in the future . . . ."
"It seems like the eggshell is needed to restore the beast core? How long will it take for that egg to hatch? "
. . . . . .
Edgar had completely recovered his strength, and he could hear such comments clearly. But because they did not speak ill of Shu Shu, he didn't care and just stood there, waiting for Shu Shu to get off the aircraft.
Shu Shu quickly got off the aircraft with a small bag on his back. The beasts outside made him a little scared, so he quickly rushed to Edgar's side.
At this time, Reynolds also went up to greet Edgar, "Your Imperial Highness, your beast core has been restored?"
"Yes." Edgar nodded at Reynolds.
"That's really great!" Jones got the news and looked at Edgar happily. Soon after, his gaze fell on the egg. "Shu Shu has given birth so soon?" Edgar and Shu Shu were really amazing. With this speed . . . what was having two children within three years? He reckoned that they could have a bunch in one year.
"Yes." Edgar nodded. "We also found some good things on this planet. We’ll be much faster in helping people restore their beast cores later."
Edgar did not lower the volume of his voice. The fallen beasts who were far away could not hear what he said, but the fallen beasts who followed Reynolds and were drilled by Reynolds heard it. After hearing it, they all looked at Edgar and Shu Shu with excitement and also spread the word.
It was unclear which fallen beast took the lead to fall onto the ground, showing the attitude of fealty. Surprisingly, the fallen beasts in the distance all followed suit and made the same move.
For a moment, all the fallen beasts lay down on the ground.
93. Found the Spirit Stone
The aircraft used by Edgar and Shu Shu was very big. It was a jujube pit-type with a slightly pointed head and tail. In the front was the cockpit, while the round space in the middle was decorated into a room with a bed and a dining table as well as separated bathroom and kitchen. It was more convenient than RVs on the earth and good enough for a family of three to live in.
Of course, given that Edgar's build was too big, he usually could only sleep on the floor with the child or lie on the floor alone after looking on helplessly at Shu Shu sleeping on the bed with the humanoid child.
Now his hands and feet finally returned.
After carrying Shu Shu into the aircraft at lightning speed and putting the egg on the bed, Edgar carried Shu Shu into the narrow but multi-functional bathroom and helped Shu Shu clean up thoroughly.
"I can wash myself." Shu Shu felt extremely awkward being carried and washed by Edgar, whom had just transformed and did not wear any clothes.
He had not been intimate with Edgar for a long time, so them being this close together naturally gave rise to some indecent thoughts. But it was obviously not the time now.
"Soon, okay." Edgar said. He controlled the stream of water to wash Shu Shu squeaky clean, took out a bath towel to wrap Shu Shu up, and carried Shu Shu to the bed.
"This second egg looks exactly the same as that of Xiao Bao then." Finally leaving Edgar's arms, Shu Shu concealed his throbbing "little Shu Shu" with the bath towel, sat up, and turned his gaze toward the egg in front of Edgar.
However, he had barely spoken a word, and Edgar already covered him with a quilt and forced him to lie on the bed.
"You take a rest first." Edgar said and then looked for something to wipe the egg clean like he had done it numerous times.
Shu Shu felt that this egg was exactly the same as the one before, but Edgar felt that there was a big difference between these two eggs. Not to mention that the eggshell of this egg seemed to be not as hard as Xiao Bao’s eggshell.
Was this . . . because of congenital deficiency?
Although Xiao Bao had once been mistaken for a tumor and thus got his supply of spiritual power cut back by them, but Shu Shu had not sustained any injuries at least. It was different this time . . . .
Edgar wiped the egg while inputting spiritual power into the egg, wishing he could give all his spiritual power for the egg to absorb.
It seemed that Edgar would take care of the child but not his own affairs . . . . Shu Shu was a bit bored lying down on the bed, so he started to look for the little snake around.
"Xiao Bao, where’re you?" There was nothing inside the box that Edgar had prepared for Xiao Bao. Shu Shu was anxious and immediately called Xiao Bao, but he did not receive any response.
Although the little snake was naughty, but he usually wouldn’t run around all over the place and, according to reason, could not run out either—there was a robot guard at hand responsible for looking after him.
"Xiao Bao is missing?" Edgar was alarmed. He quickly checked the entire aircraft with his spiritual power but did not found Xiao Bao's presence on the aircraft.
These days, they always brought the child with them, took care of him very carefully, and basically wouldn’t leave him alone. When they went out to look for the spirit grass this time, they did not bring the child along because he happened to be sleeping. However, they opened the protective cover and also turned on the alarm system.

A Guide to - 92
Unedited chapter
92. Recovery and Childbirth
Edgar's mood actually hadn’t been too good these days.
To begin with, shortly after he and Shu Shu got married should be their honeymoon period. Unfortunately, they encountered messy things, and his beast core was broken, so that he could not even eat his spouse.
Many fallen beasts became muddle-headed after holding back for a long time. Now that he was cultivating every day, he actually didn’t become muddle-headed, but he was definitely not happy and also had an urge to fight with others to vent his feelings.
Only, no one would fight him. Those fallen beasts, who all hoped for Shu Shu to save them, would definitely not fight him. As for going hunting . . . . They were in the desert, and there were no prey around them.
Edgar had been holding back for quite a long time. Now, seeing some people come to deliver themselves for a beating, he was naturally a little excited.
As the huge snake rushed down from the aircraft, the aircraft's protective cover rose.
Shu Shu and the little snake were protected on the aircraft, but Edgar went outside . . . . For a moment, Shu Shu had his heart in his throat as well as brimming with anger at the fallen beasts outside.
These guys were actually going to hurt them! They were really too vile!
Shu Shu was both frightened and very angry. His body could not stop shaking, yet he did not forget to pay attention to the situation outside. Then, to his surprise, he saw that none of the fallen beasts outside were Edgar's opponents. It did not take long before all of them were sent sprawling to the ground.
Half of the fallen beasts headed by the snake had been flattened by Edgar. A goshawk who tried to sneak attack Edgar from the sky got his wings torn off, and all the fallen beasts with legs had their legs and feet snapped off.
His heartbeat had not even calmed down, and the fight was already over . . . . Shu Shu opened his mouth slightly and recovered his senses a little.
After Edgar had sorted out those fallen beasts, he returned to the aircraft. He took out a communication device with very strong signal from the aircraft and sent a message to the spaceship left on the Fallen Beast Planet, telling a group of people over there to come and catch these fallen beasts back while asking Reynolds to reorganize the data of all the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet.
Regarding the incident today, it really needed to be said that Edgar had in fact anticipated it since long ago.
There were good and bad fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet. It was impossible for him and Shu Shu to help all of them to restore their beast cores. In this case, those fallen beasts who could not become beastmen again would definitely be resentful.
He and Reynolds had long thought about finding an excuse to do a big purge of all the fallen beasts, and now this excuse happened to be delivered to their hands.
"It's nothing. Let's go." Edgar hung up the communication device in his hand and turned his gaze toward Shu Shu. Having disposed of those irksome guys and vented the suffocation in his heart, it was time for him and Shu Shu to live in a two-person world now.
"Oh . . ." Shu Shu nodded and started the aircraft again. He had familiarized himself with flying the aircraft for some time, and now his flying was very smooth.
After flying for a while, Shu Shu finally recovered his senses and stated indignantly, "Those fallen beasts are so vile that they even took shots at us! But they’re also stupid. With so much difference in strength, they still came out to make exhibitions of themselves." How terrible Jonathan and his tricks were, ah! That guy almost sent them to death. And these fallen beasts? They seemed to be particularly stupid . . . .
"Generally, all fallen beasts are quite stupid." Edgar said. The brains of the fallen beasts would degenerate, and their strength would also decrease. More often than not, they were all quite stupid. Those guys undoubtedly dared to take shots because they were so desperate they felt like taking a risk.
Speaking of, Reynolds was able to live this long after becoming a fallen beast, and there were still so many surviving fallen beasts on this planet at present. Although most of the fallen beasts had degenerated to some extent, but their situation was not serious at all. This really made people feel very amazed.
You had to know that at the beginning, the fallen beasts who were sent to the Fallen Beast Planet could only live for a few years or a few decades before they died, and they might degenerate into real beasts before dying. It was because of this that the Beastman Empire had never paid attention to this place . . . .
Edgar had always been wondering about this. Only after he had eaten the aquatic plants did he finally had a little conjecture.
There were not many things on the Fallen Beast Planet, but spiritual power was very abundant. He reckoned that this was exactly the reason the fallen beasts here were able to prolong their lives and delay the degeneration stage.
As for why it was only after Reynolds’ arrival would there be such a change . . . . Before Reynolds came here, the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet did not hunt and only lived on food sent by the Beastman Empire.
Sitting on the aircraft, Edgar saw a planet that was still very primitive yet full of vitality.
This planet was in fact not useless at all.
Edgar already had such a notion in his heart, and then, after he and Shu Shu flew the aircraft all over the place to explore, this point was further confirmed.
After the aquatic plants, they found several kinds of plants as well as animals that contained spiritual power. However, contrary to what one might expect, there were no daemons who had opened their spiritual wisdom inside these plants and animals . . . . Of course, this was normal. The number of spiritual plants that could be used for alchemy had always been a lot, but how many of them had been able to cultivate into plant daemons in total?
The area where Shu Shu and company had crashed was in the desert, but after traveling for a while, they could see a vast stretch of green, and the surrounding spiritual power was also abundant. The spiritual power on some mountain range was even more abundant, making Shu Shu wish he could become a long-term resident there.
If the spiritual power on the earth was some dried out grass seeds for Shu Shu and could barely fill his stomach, and the spiritual power on the Gass Planet and in the Capital Star was a rich home-cooked meal, which not only made his stomach full but also satisfied his desire for good food, then the spiritual power on the Fallen Beast Planet was a sumptuous banquet plus a houseful of snacks.
"The spiritual power on this mountain’s so abundant!" Shu Shu stopped the aircraft next to a mountain and stated emotionally as he looked at the mountain.
Edgar felt the same way. He got off the aircraft, straightened out his coiled body, and absorbed the surrounding spiritual power joyfully. Each piece of his scales felt as comfortable as being brushed with a small brush.
"Let's go search the mountain. Maybe we can find the spirit grass again!" Shu Shu looked very eager to give it a try. Although he said "maybe", but in fact . . . he felt that he could definitely find the spirit grass.
There were no cultivators on this planet. Fallen beasts and ordinary animals could not feel the existence of spiritual power, so the spirit grass was basically well preserved.
Edgar moved his snake head, swept Shu Shu up, and went towards the mountain.
Shu Shu sat on the snake's body, waist circled by the snake and holding a case containing the little snake in his hand. He looked at everything around him with exhilaration as he traveled through the woods. He was very excited when he found that there was a sound of activity coming from ahead. "It seems like there’s another animal coming!"
Indeed, there was another animal coming. It was a creature that looked a bit ugly and had no bones in its body, an indigenous animal of this planet. They were not small in size, but their strength was far from great. These days, Shu Shu and Edgar had already come across many of those, which ultimately became their Chinese food.
This one . . . was also no exception.
This animal looked unattractive, but it actually tasted pretty good. Shu Shu and Edgar continued to walk forward after feeding their stomachs to the full. Sure enough, they found another spirit grass after walking for a while.
What made them feel quite depressed was that they actually didn't recognize this spirit grass! Maybe it should be mentioned that so far, they had not found any spirit grass they recognized.
However, although they basically didn’t recognize these spirit grasses, but most of these grasses could be eaten directly, and they really didn’t need to take a lot of trouble to consider doing alchemy.
"Edgar, the spiritual power of this spirit grass is very abundant. You eat it, okay?" Shu Shu passed on the spirit grass in his hand to Edgar while he himself took out the aquatic plant obtained from the lake previously. He then tore off a small piece of the plant and put it into his mouth to eat.
Finding the spirit grass was definitely something that made them very, very happy, but there were also places that made Shu Shu very depressed. For example . . . he could not eat too much spirit grass ever.
Anyway, even if he ate less, he still received a huge benefit. The egg in his body was getting bigger and bigger and showing signs of about to be born.
Edgar did not decline and directly swallowed the grass down into his stomach. Shu Shu had been getting some benefits lately and did not need to worry about insufficient spiritual power anymore. Meanwhile, the benefits he got were much more than Shu Shu.
At that time on the Gass planet, although his cultivation speed was very fast, but it still took him several months to finally reach the jīndān period. Now though . . . he could already hit the jīndān period only after several days of effort! Because he had already encountered the lightning tribulation, his body had long been tempered, and he did not have to worry about his foundation being unstable.
After swallowing the spirit grass down into his stomach, a streak of spiritual power suddenly exploded inside Edgar's body. He quickly circulated the spiritual power in his body and soon absorbed this streak of spiritual power completely. At this time, the spiritual power in his dāntián, that had long become liquid, was already very, very concentrated.
When he encountered the lightning tribulation before, this was what it looked like inside his body.
Edgar was just thinking so, and the liquid spiritual power in his body suddenly began to condense . . . . Was he going to advance to the jīndān period?
Thinking of the lightning tribulation he had encountered before, Edgar did not hesitate to keep away from Shu Shu. Now that he had learned a lot of cultivation knowledge, he certainly wouldn’t think about taking Shu Shu with him to avoid the lightning tribulation.
"Edgar, what’re you doing?" Shu Shu looked at Edgar with confusion and then quickly thought of one thing. "You . . . you’re going to advance, right?" All the surrounding spiritual power seemed to rush forth toward Edgar over there?
Edgar did not speak and started to cultivate on an area far from Shu Shu instead. More and more spiritual power was drawn by him and entered his body, yet the ball of liquid spiritual power in his dāntián became more and more small and was eventually compressed into a solid.
A jīndān reappeared in Edgar's body, spinning around and around. This thing was not the same as the beast core, but its function was similar.
He could become a human again.
Edgar felt his heart lifted up with joy and then realized . . . . He did not seem to have encountered the lightning tribulation?
This was truly a good thing . . . . Edgar uncoiled his snake body and stopped cultivating.
"Edgar, was it unsuccessful?" Shu Shu looked at Edgar a little depressedly. He very much wanted Edgar to become a human sooner, but now it seemed that . . . it was another failure?
"No, it’s successful." Edgar's voice came out, and the huge snake instantly became a man.
"Great!" Shu Shu ran to Edgar excitedly. Edgar finally became a man again! Later on, he could let Edgar hold him to sleep every day without being troubled by such a thing like Edgar's scales being too cold and hard making him feel uncomfortable.
Yeah, it was great. Edgar held Shu Shu in his arms and was in a very good mood. He became a beastman again and, at long last, no longer needed to be upset about things like being unable to hold Shu Shu.
More importantly, he could finally do some intimate stuff with Shu Shu.
He had two children already, but he and Shu Shu's "intimate" days only amounted to dozens of days. He felt miserable just by thinking about it.
Shu Shu threw himself at Edgar and wrapped his legs around Edgar's waist, making Edgar support him by the buttocks as he kissed Edgar's face. "You’ll fly the aircraft later, and you’ll take care of the child too. You . . ."
Halfway through his speech, Shu Shu suddenly stopped talking, and his brows started to wrinkle even more.
"What's wrong?" Edgar looked at Shu Shu anxiously, for fear that Shu Shu felt uncomfortable somewhere.
"My stomach hurts." Shu Shu touched his bulging belly. His belly had grown rapidly in the past few days, and now it suddenly hurt . . . . This felt . . . like he was going to give birth?
Just thinking about it, Shu Shu felt like he was having diarrhea in addition to his stomach ache. At the same time, a stream of fluid flowed out from between his thighs and wetted Edgar's hands, which were holding him.
Shu Shu stiffened all over as he felt something sliding down . . . .
"I'm going to shit! You quickly let me go!" Shu Shu shouted anxiously.
The incident happened so fast that Edgar failed to react somewhat. However, he had already experienced it once after all, so when he got a whiff of the smell of the fluid, he immediately realized that Shu Shu should be about to give birth.
Shu Shu was going to give birth! Edgar was a little stupid as he subconsciously sat down on the ground, placing Shu Shu on his lap.
There was more and more fluid flowing out from between Shu Shu's thighs. He shed his pants without waiting for Edgar to do it, and there was something inside.
"Fortunately, I wore loose pants today . . ." Having given birth to the child, Shu Shu momentarily relaxed and could not help blurting out.
". . ." Edgar no longer knew what to say. He took off Shu Shu's pants and took an egg out of them.
Xiao Bao’s birth at that time had been very sudden, making people caught off guard. He did not expect that the second birth was even faster . . . . In an instant of labor, he had another child.
"You look after the egg. I'm going to change my pants." Completely without any consciousness of having just given birth to a child, Shu Shu picked up his own pants from the ground, freed himself from Edgar, and got up. He was going to change pants.
Edgar finally came to his senses at this moment. He carried Shu Shu in his arms and walked over to the aircraft—his sub-beastman had just given birth to a child and should be taken care of!
He had to take good care of Shu Shu this time.
92. Recovery and Childbirth
Edgar's mood actually hadn’t been too good these days.
To begin with, shortly after he and Shu Shu got married should be their honeymoon period. Unfortunately, they encountered messy things, and his beast core was broken, so that he could not even eat his spouse.
Many fallen beasts became muddle-headed after holding back for a long time. Now that he was cultivating every day, he actually didn’t become muddle-headed, but he was definitely not happy and also had an urge to fight with others to vent his feelings.
Only, no one would fight him. Those fallen beasts, who all hoped for Shu Shu to save them, would definitely not fight him. As for going hunting . . . . They were in the desert, and there were no prey around them.
Edgar had been holding back for quite a long time. Now, seeing some people come to deliver themselves for a beating, he was naturally a little excited.
As the huge snake rushed down from the aircraft, the aircraft's protective cover rose.
Shu Shu and the little snake were protected on the aircraft, but Edgar went outside . . . . For a moment, Shu Shu had his heart in his throat as well as brimming with anger at the fallen beasts outside.
These guys were actually going to hurt them! They were really too vile!
Shu Shu was both frightened and very angry. His body could not stop shaking, yet he did not forget to pay attention to the situation outside. Then, to his surprise, he saw that none of the fallen beasts outside were Edgar's opponents. It did not take long before all of them were sent sprawling to the ground.
Half of the fallen beasts headed by the snake had been flattened by Edgar. A goshawk who tried to sneak attack Edgar from the sky got his wings torn off, and all the fallen beasts with legs had their legs and feet snapped off.
His heartbeat had not even calmed down, and the fight was already over . . . . Shu Shu opened his mouth slightly and recovered his senses a little.
After Edgar had sorted out those fallen beasts, he returned to the aircraft. He took out a communication device with very strong signal from the aircraft and sent a message to the spaceship left on the Fallen Beast Planet, telling a group of people over there to come and catch these fallen beasts back while asking Reynolds to reorganize the data of all the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet.
Regarding the incident today, it really needed to be said that Edgar had in fact anticipated it since long ago.
There were good and bad fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet. It was impossible for him and Shu Shu to help all of them to restore their beast cores. In this case, those fallen beasts who could not become beastmen again would definitely be resentful.
He and Reynolds had long thought about finding an excuse to do a big purge of all the fallen beasts, and now this excuse happened to be delivered to their hands.
"It's nothing. Let's go." Edgar hung up the communication device in his hand and turned his gaze toward Shu Shu. Having disposed of those irksome guys and vented the suffocation in his heart, it was time for him and Shu Shu to live in a two-person world now.
"Oh . . ." Shu Shu nodded and started the aircraft again. He had familiarized himself with flying the aircraft for some time, and now his flying was very smooth.
After flying for a while, Shu Shu finally recovered his senses and stated indignantly, "Those fallen beasts are so vile that they even took shots at us! But they’re also stupid. With so much difference in strength, they still came out to make exhibitions of themselves." How terrible Jonathan and his tricks were, ah! That guy almost sent them to death. And these fallen beasts? They seemed to be particularly stupid . . . .
"Generally, all fallen beasts are quite stupid." Edgar said. The brains of the fallen beasts would degenerate, and their strength would also decrease. More often than not, they were all quite stupid. Those guys undoubtedly dared to take shots because they were so desperate they felt like taking a risk.
Speaking of, Reynolds was able to live this long after becoming a fallen beast, and there were still so many surviving fallen beasts on this planet at present. Although most of the fallen beasts had degenerated to some extent, but their situation was not serious at all. This really made people feel very amazed.
You had to know that at the beginning, the fallen beasts who were sent to the Fallen Beast Planet could only live for a few years or a few decades before they died, and they might degenerate into real beasts before dying. It was because of this that the Beastman Empire had never paid attention to this place . . . .
Edgar had always been wondering about this. Only after he had eaten the aquatic plants did he finally had a little conjecture.
There were not many things on the Fallen Beast Planet, but spiritual power was very abundant. He reckoned that this was exactly the reason the fallen beasts here were able to prolong their lives and delay the degeneration stage.
As for why it was only after Reynolds’ arrival would there be such a change . . . . Before Reynolds came here, the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet did not hunt and only lived on food sent by the Beastman Empire.
Sitting on the aircraft, Edgar saw a planet that was still very primitive yet full of vitality.
This planet was in fact not useless at all.
Edgar already had such a notion in his heart, and then, after he and Shu Shu flew the aircraft all over the place to explore, this point was further confirmed.
After the aquatic plants, they found several kinds of plants as well as animals that contained spiritual power. However, contrary to what one might expect, there were no daemons who had opened their spiritual wisdom inside these plants and animals . . . . Of course, this was normal. The number of spiritual plants that could be used for alchemy had always been a lot, but how many of them had been able to cultivate into plant daemons in total?
The area where Shu Shu and company had crashed was in the desert, but after traveling for a while, they could see a vast stretch of green, and the surrounding spiritual power was also abundant. The spiritual power on some mountain range was even more abundant, making Shu Shu wish he could become a long-term resident there.
If the spiritual power on the earth was some dried out grass seeds for Shu Shu and could barely fill his stomach, and the spiritual power on the Gass Planet and in the Capital Star was a rich home-cooked meal, which not only made his stomach full but also satisfied his desire for good food, then the spiritual power on the Fallen Beast Planet was a sumptuous banquet plus a houseful of snacks.
"The spiritual power on this mountain’s so abundant!" Shu Shu stopped the aircraft next to a mountain and stated emotionally as he looked at the mountain.
Edgar felt the same way. He got off the aircraft, straightened out his coiled body, and absorbed the surrounding spiritual power joyfully. Each piece of his scales felt as comfortable as being brushed with a small brush.
"Let's go search the mountain. Maybe we can find the spirit grass again!" Shu Shu looked very eager to give it a try. Although he said "maybe", but in fact . . . he felt that he could definitely find the spirit grass.
There were no cultivators on this planet. Fallen beasts and ordinary animals could not feel the existence of spiritual power, so the spirit grass was basically well preserved.
Edgar moved his snake head, swept Shu Shu up, and went towards the mountain.
Shu Shu sat on the snake's body, waist circled by the snake and holding a case containing the little snake in his hand. He looked at everything around him with exhilaration as he traveled through the woods. He was very excited when he found that there was a sound of activity coming from ahead. "It seems like there’s another animal coming!"
Indeed, there was another animal coming. It was a creature that looked a bit ugly and had no bones in its body, an indigenous animal of this planet. They were not small in size, but their strength was far from great. These days, Shu Shu and Edgar had already come across many of those, which ultimately became their Chinese food.
This one . . . was also no exception.
This animal looked unattractive, but it actually tasted pretty good. Shu Shu and Edgar continued to walk forward after feeding their stomachs to the full. Sure enough, they found another spirit grass after walking for a while.
What made them feel quite depressed was that they actually didn't recognize this spirit grass! Maybe it should be mentioned that so far, they had not found any spirit grass they recognized.
However, although they basically didn’t recognize these spirit grasses, but most of these grasses could be eaten directly, and they really didn’t need to take a lot of trouble to consider doing alchemy.
"Edgar, the spiritual power of this spirit grass is very abundant. You eat it, okay?" Shu Shu passed on the spirit grass in his hand to Edgar while he himself took out the aquatic plant obtained from the lake previously. He then tore off a small piece of the plant and put it into his mouth to eat.
Finding the spirit grass was definitely something that made them very, very happy, but there were also places that made Shu Shu very depressed. For example . . . he could not eat too much spirit grass ever.
Anyway, even if he ate less, he still received a huge benefit. The egg in his body was getting bigger and bigger and showing signs of about to be born.
Edgar did not decline and directly swallowed the grass down into his stomach. Shu Shu had been getting some benefits lately and did not need to worry about insufficient spiritual power anymore. Meanwhile, the benefits he got were much more than Shu Shu.
At that time on the Gass planet, although his cultivation speed was very fast, but it still took him several months to finally reach the jīndān period. Now though . . . he could already hit the jīndān period only after several days of effort! Because he had already encountered the lightning tribulation, his body had long been tempered, and he did not have to worry about his foundation being unstable.
After swallowing the spirit grass down into his stomach, a streak of spiritual power suddenly exploded inside Edgar's body. He quickly circulated the spiritual power in his body and soon absorbed this streak of spiritual power completely. At this time, the spiritual power in his dāntián, that had long become liquid, was already very, very concentrated.
When he encountered the lightning tribulation before, this was what it looked like inside his body.
Edgar was just thinking so, and the liquid spiritual power in his body suddenly began to condense . . . . Was he going to advance to the jīndān period?
Thinking of the lightning tribulation he had encountered before, Edgar did not hesitate to keep away from Shu Shu. Now that he had learned a lot of cultivation knowledge, he certainly wouldn’t think about taking Shu Shu with him to avoid the lightning tribulation.
"Edgar, what’re you doing?" Shu Shu looked at Edgar with confusion and then quickly thought of one thing. "You . . . you’re going to advance, right?" All the surrounding spiritual power seemed to rush forth toward Edgar over there?
Edgar did not speak and started to cultivate on an area far from Shu Shu instead. More and more spiritual power was drawn by him and entered his body, yet the ball of liquid spiritual power in his dāntián became more and more small and was eventually compressed into a solid.
A jīndān reappeared in Edgar's body, spinning around and around. This thing was not the same as the beast core, but its function was similar.
He could become a human again.
Edgar felt his heart lifted up with joy and then realized . . . . He did not seem to have encountered the lightning tribulation?
This was truly a good thing . . . . Edgar uncoiled his snake body and stopped cultivating.
"Edgar, was it unsuccessful?" Shu Shu looked at Edgar a little depressedly. He very much wanted Edgar to become a human sooner, but now it seemed that . . . it was another failure?
"No, it’s successful." Edgar's voice came out, and the huge snake instantly became a man.
"Great!" Shu Shu ran to Edgar excitedly. Edgar finally became a man again! Later on, he could let Edgar hold him to sleep every day without being troubled by such a thing like Edgar's scales being too cold and hard making him feel uncomfortable.
Yeah, it was great. Edgar held Shu Shu in his arms and was in a very good mood. He became a beastman again and, at long last, no longer needed to be upset about things like being unable to hold Shu Shu.
More importantly, he could finally do some intimate stuff with Shu Shu.
He had two children already, but he and Shu Shu's "intimate" days only amounted to dozens of days. He felt miserable just by thinking about it.
Shu Shu threw himself at Edgar and wrapped his legs around Edgar's waist, making Edgar support him by the buttocks as he kissed Edgar's face. "You’ll fly the aircraft later, and you’ll take care of the child too. You . . ."
Halfway through his speech, Shu Shu suddenly stopped talking, and his brows started to wrinkle even more.
"What's wrong?" Edgar looked at Shu Shu anxiously, for fear that Shu Shu felt uncomfortable somewhere.
"My stomach hurts." Shu Shu touched his bulging belly. His belly had grown rapidly in the past few days, and now it suddenly hurt . . . . This felt . . . like he was going to give birth?
Just thinking about it, Shu Shu felt like he was having diarrhea in addition to his stomach ache. At the same time, a stream of fluid flowed out from between his thighs and wetted Edgar's hands, which were holding him.
Shu Shu stiffened all over as he felt something sliding down . . . .
"I'm going to shit! You quickly let me go!" Shu Shu shouted anxiously.
The incident happened so fast that Edgar failed to react somewhat. However, he had already experienced it once after all, so when he got a whiff of the smell of the fluid, he immediately realized that Shu Shu should be about to give birth.
Shu Shu was going to give birth! Edgar was a little stupid as he subconsciously sat down on the ground, placing Shu Shu on his lap.
There was more and more fluid flowing out from between Shu Shu's thighs. He shed his pants without waiting for Edgar to do it, and there was something inside.
"Fortunately, I wore loose pants today . . ." Having given birth to the child, Shu Shu momentarily relaxed and could not help blurting out.

"You look after the egg. I'm going to change my pants." Completely without any consciousness of having just given birth to a child, Shu Shu picked up his own pants from the ground, freed himself from Edgar, and got up. He was going to change pants.
Edgar finally came to his senses at this moment. He carried Shu Shu in his arms and walked over to the aircraft—his sub-beastman had just given birth to a child and should be taken care of!
He had to take good care of Shu Shu this time.

A Guide to - 91
Unedited chapter
91. Learning to Fly an Aircraft
Shu Shu always knew that his own talent was poor, but he really didn't expect that it could actually be so poor.
Just by eating a little bit of aquatic plants with spiritual power, he was actually driven to reveal his original shape because he was unable to absorb the spiritual power inside those plants.
It was truly humiliating. Edgar had obviously eaten so much yet was fine, and so was the little snake. Why when it was his turn . . . . Shu Shu was so angry that both his cheeks puffed up.
The chaotic spiritual power inside Shu Shu’s body finally calmed down with Edgar’s assistance. In addition, most of the spiritual power was absorbed by the child in Shu Shu’s belly . . . . Shu Shu still maintained the shape of a little hamster though, lying flat on his back looking skyward and pretending to be dead.
"Where else do you feel uncomfortable?" Edgar asked worriedly.
There was no uncomfortable place, just did not want to move . . . . Shu Shu glanced at Edgar gloomily. Edgar was a very talented mythological animal, while he was a daemon hamster with very poor talent. The gap was really huge, making him want to bite Edgar again.
However, his teeth could not bite Edgar at all . . . . So maddening!
When Edgar saw the little hamster open his liquid dark eyes and grind his teeth yet looking pain-free, he knew that Shu Shu should have no big problem and was only unhappy. So he immediately shifted the subject, "I’ll grill you some fish to eat?"
Having heard what was said, the little hamster turned over and sat up, nodding aloofly. His body was hurt by the rampaging spiritual power; after the pain, he was really hungry . . . .
Although Edgar was currently a fallen beast, but his situation was much better than when he had just met Shu Shu. After all, he had claws now. Edgar cleaned up the fish with his little short claws and directly grilled them on the solar grill.
The grill was not only solar-powered but could also detect the condition of the food and adjust its temperature accordingly. There was no need to worry about the fish getting scorched. As a result, Edgar did not encounter any trouble when grilling the fish and soon had a fish ready. He put it on a plate and then placed the plate in front of the little hamster.
Shu Shu, who had become a hamster and was much smaller than the fish Edgar caught, smelled the fragrance that came out of the grilled fish. He could not wait to climb onto the plate while sniffing the fragrance that filled the air intoxicatingly. After the grilled fish had cooled down, he went straight into the fish belly and then ate the meat on it.
Edgar left two fish for Shu Shu and then put the other two fish into the food processor, turning them into a thick paste for the little snake placed in the box.
The two fish for the little snake’s meal did not have too many seasonings. As for the taste, it could only be described as bland. However, the little snake did not reject it at all and was extremely pleased with his meal.
Shu Shu was also very satisfied with his meal. At the same time, because he got into the fish belly, his body was now full of the smell of grilled fish and looked like a delicious plush ball.
It was too slow to eat like this . . . . Shu Shu gnawed at the fish for a long time and only managed to consume a little. In the end, he gritted his teeth and turned back into a human shape. He put on clothes, took a seat next to the table, and started to gorge himself . . . . In fact, his speed was not much faster. When he was being a hamster, the fish bones were very big for him and quite easy to avoid. But now that he had turned into a person, the fish bones became very troublesome.
"Was it enough?" Edgar asked.
"Enough." Shu Shu replied. After wiping his mouth, he turned his gaze toward the remaining aquatic plants. "I feel strong all over after eating it. I want to eat again . . ." Although a moment ago he had suffered unbearable pain from the rampaging spiritual power after eating too much aquatic plants, but now he felt comfortable from head to foot, making him can’t help but want to eat a little more.
Of course, he also wanted to do this to give the child in his belly a little more spiritual power—after eating the aquatic plants, his child had visibly grown bigger, and his belly also stuck out now!
"Let’s wait awhile before you eat again, and you must eat less when you eat." Edgar said. Shu Shu's situation just now had really scared him; however, eating just a little bit of aquatic plants should be good for the child.
Shu Shu nodded, agreeing with regret across his whole face. Edgar glanced at the grill next to him and suddenly said, "I'll let the men who follow us return."
"Eh? Why?" Shu Shu was a bit puzzled. He thought it was very impressive to go out with a large group of people . . . .
"Your secret can’t be known to others, so we’re just going to take a robot along." Edgar explained. Shu Shu had many secrets on his body; some of the secrets did not matter if known by others, but some others . . . had better be hidden for the time being. It was definitely more convenient for them to move without those men.
Besides, Edgar wanted to have a two-person world with Shu Shu instead of being followed by a group of people. However, his wish for a two-person world was impossible because Shu Shu refused to leave the little snake behind and was of the opinion that they could not throw the little snake to others irresponsibly.
Edgar consented.
Anyway, he was now a snake and could not do anything, so it was all right if Shu Shu wanted to take the little snake along.
Parting ways with the soldiers on the oasis, Shu Shu and Edgar got onto the best aircraft left by those men.
The aircraft had autopilot, but it required the pilot to connect to the network to choose a route. Since there was no network on the Fallen Beast Planet, the autopilot was naturally useless.
"Shu Shu, how about you learn to fly an aircraft?" Edgar proposed.
"I can’t, ah!" Shu Shu refused at once. He had not even ridden a bicycle; how could he directly fly such a high-end aircraft?
"Actually, flying an aircraft is very simple . . ." Edgar started to explain to Shu Shu.
Science and technology could liberate human beings. Naturally, many things were becoming simpler and easier to use. The modes of transportation were also the same. The aircraft of the Beastman Empire was much better than human cars—it was pre-installed with many functions such as the ability to automatically get out of the way when there were obstacles ahead and the ability to keep the body of the aircraft steady to ensure that people who were unable to pilot would not get into a traffic accident.
Shu Shu immediately felt reassured after hearing of these two functions. He pressed down the power switch to start the aircraft without the slightest hesitation and then, holding the steering wheel, started to speed up.
In order to avoid being stared at by the strange birds in the sky, Shu Shu flew the aircraft only a few meters from the ground. His grasp of the steering wheel was not so good, so that the aircraft nearly ran into trees and rocks several times. But he did not need to worry at all because every time he was about to bump into things and at imminent peril, the aircraft was able to get out of the way by itself.
Really . . . it was so fun!
Shu Shu felt like he was playing a game. He slowed down the speed of the aircraft to hover in the desert.
This oasis was not far from the area where Shu Shu and others lived. Shu Shu’s area had been very lively recently, and it was inevitable that there were fallen beasts who came to the oasis for a rest.
At this moment, a group of fallen beasts came near this oasis. They glanced at the direction of the oasis and finally sat in the desert to eat the captured prey. These were the group of fallen beasts in the mountain and the hyena who had come to inform them.
The fallen beasts in this group radiated an aura of violence, and the snake fallen beast who took the lead looked incomparably gloomy and cold and seemed to carry a murderous aura. As they ate, they began to communicate.
They had been associates for quite a long time, and they had their own communication methods. The low growls and text allowed them to have a relatively fast-paced chat.
"Aldous, the crown prince and the crown princess are really in that oasis? What shall we do next?" A cat fallen beast turned his gaze toward their boss.
The huge snake beast tapped the ground with his tail. "We must think of a way to save ourselves."
These fallen beasts had all violated the law. Some were downright criminals; they broke their beast cores and became fallen beasts while they were committing a crime or when they were arrested. Some were those who were resentful after becoming fallen beasts; they tried to take revenge and ended up committing a crime. According to reason, fallen beasts like them should be put in prison. But since they were fallen beasts . . . and considering that the Beastman Empire had not prepared a prison for fallen beasts, the people in the upper level of the Empire simply sent them to the Fallen Beast Planet.
Before Reynolds came to the Fallen Beast Planet, such criminals named themselves kings and lorded over the Fallen Beast Planet because they were the most vicious of all. But after Reynolds came, these men were all defeated and could only went into hiding with their tails between their legs. Later, when there were criminals coming, they would be driven away by Reynolds.
This group of fallen beasts understood well that it was clearly impossible for the crown princess to save them with his method of restoring the beast core . . . . Even if Shu Shu was willing to save them, so many people were waiting for Shu Shu to save them. Maybe it would take another hundred years before it was their turn. Therefore, they could only try to save themselves.
"What’s the method?" Someone asked.
"As long as we can grab that Shu Shu, we don’t need to worry about anything else." Aldous wrote on the ground, the snake's vertical pupils narrowing and flashing with cold light.
Along the way, they had asked numerous people about the crown prince and the crown princess and learned many things about Edgar and Shu Shu.
The crown prince was very strong before, but he was just a fallen beast now. Meanwhile, there was a child in the crown princess' belly. So it was not difficult at all to catch them. After catching them, they might be able to become beastmen!
Even if they could not become beastmen . . . . Since they could not recover, it was best that others did not recover either!
Since they had decided on such a plan, they had been tracking Edgar and Shu Shu's whereabouts these days.
These people were just discussing about it, and a goshawk fallen beast suddenly flew over from a distance and then landed in front of Aldous. "The men who followed the crown prince and the crown princess have all gone back, but the crown prince and the crown princess remain in the oasis!
There was still such a good thing? The eyes of these fallen beasts lit up. Just then, they saw an aircraft streaked across the sky and flew away crookedly.
"That's His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince's aircraft." The goshawk fallen beast wrote a sentence on the ground, somewhat stupid. It took them a lot of effort to come up here, and they just happened to run into the crown prince and the crown princess whom were left alone. As a result, before they even started, those two men ran away?
This was so unfair!
These fallen beasts were in a very bad mood. At this moment, they saw the aircraft that had gone away unexpectedly fly back again.
"Let's chase it." Aldous shook his tail and motioned everyone to catch up. But, how could they chase such a fine aircraft? Their feet had all worn down from running, and they still hadn’t caught up with the aircraft, whose flying speed was actually not fast at all.
This aircraft flew crookedly and kept flying back and forth in the sky. They totally couldn’t make out where it was going to go. Sometimes they chased after it with much toil for a while only to see the aircraft above their heads directly turn round and go back. It simply made them feel like spitting out a mouthful of blood.
After doing their utmost to chase, Aldous just wanted to give up. At this moment, the aircraft suddenly stopped in front of them.
Shu Shu had long found that there were fallen beasts following him, and he felt very helpless toward this. He did not know how to deal with the fallen beasts who worshiped him and wanted to please him, so he simply ignored them. He thought they would surely give up after a while, but unexpectedly, these people were surprisingly very tenacious and continued to chase him without stopping.
Running around like this, the bodies of these fallen beasts would be in trouble . . . . Shu Shu thought about going down to have a good chat with them and make them abandon this idea of running after the aircraft.
After the aircraft stopped, Shu Shu shouted at those people, "Hey, you all don't run after me!"
Aldous, leading the fallen beasts, slowly approached the aircraft. He knew that the crown prince and the crown princess certainly didn’t recognize them, so they could completely pretend to be ordinary fallen beasts . . . .
"I'm going to leave this place. You go stay in the oasis, okay? Don't follow me." Shu Shu said again, trying not to look at Aldous as much as possible. He was afraid of snakes after all.
As a result, a wolf-shaped fallen beast beside Aldous suddenly jumped up and pounced on Shu Shu.
"Ah!" Shu Shu cried out in fear. At the same time, Edgar swished his snake tail and struck the huge wolf straight away.
Aldous had already launched an attack at this time and even sprayed his venom directly, but it was blocked before it fell on Shu Shu’s body. He did not know what the hell was blocking the venom.
A group of fallen beasts came over and surrounded the aircraft, wholeheartedly trying to do something big. Edgar looked at them with scorn and excitement in his eyes.

Shu Shu always knew that his own talent was poor, but he really didn't expect that it could actually be so poor.

Shu Shu was also very satisfied with his meal. At the same time, because he got into the fish belly, his body was now full of the smell of grilled fish and looked like a delicious plush ball.
It was too slow to eat like this . . . . Shu Shu gnawed at the fish for a long time and only managed to consume a little. In the end, he gritted his teeth and turned back into a human shape. He put on clothes, took a seat next to the table, and started to gorge himself . . . . In fact, his speed was not much faster. When he was being a hamster, the fish bones were very big for him and quite easy to avoid. But now that he had turned into a person, the fish bones became very troublesome.
"Was it enough?" Edgar asked.
"Enough." Shu Shu replied. After wiping his mouth, he turned his gaze toward the remaining aquatic plants. "I feel strong all over after eating it. I want to eat again . . ." Although a moment ago he had suffered unbearable pain from the rampaging spiritual power after eating too much aquatic plants, but now he felt comfortable from head to foot, making him can’t help but want to eat a little more.
Of course, he also wanted to do this to give the child in his belly a little more spiritual power—after eating the aquatic plants, his child had visibly grown bigger, and his belly also stuck out now!
"Let’s wait awhile before you eat again, and you must eat less when you eat." Edgar said. Shu Shu's situation just now had really scared him; however, eating just a little bit of aquatic plants should be good for the child.
Shu Shu nodded, agreeing with regret across his whole face. Edgar glanced at the grill next to him and suddenly said, "I'll let the men who follow us return."
"Eh? Why?" Shu Shu was a bit puzzled. He thought it was very impressive to go out with a large group of people . . . .
"Your secret can’t be known to others, so we’re just going to take a robot along." Edgar explained. Shu Shu had many secrets on his body; some of the secrets did not matter if known by others, but some others . . . had better be hidden for the time being. It was definitely more convenient for them to move without those men.
Besides, Edgar wanted to have a two-person world with Shu Shu instead of being followed by a group of people. However, his wish for a two-person world was impossible because Shu Shu refused to leave the little snake behind and was of the opinion that they could not throw the little snake to others irresponsibly.
Edgar consented.
Anyway, he was now a snake and could not do anything, so it was all right if Shu Shu wanted to take the little snake along.
Parting ways with the soldiers on the oasis, Shu Shu and Edgar got onto the best aircraft left by those men.
The aircraft had autopilot, but it required the pilot to connect to the network to choose a route. Since there was no network on the Fallen Beast Planet, the autopilot was naturally useless.
"Shu Shu, how about you learn to fly an aircraft?" Edgar proposed.
"I can’t, ah!" Shu Shu refused at once. He had not even ridden a bicycle; how could he directly fly such a high-end aircraft?
"Actually, flying an aircraft is very simple . . ." Edgar started to explain to Shu Shu.
Science and technology could liberate human beings. Naturally, many things were becoming simpler and easier to use. The modes of transportation were also the same. The aircraft of the Beastman Empire was much better than human cars—it was pre-installed with many functions such as the ability to automatically get out of the way when there were obstacles ahead and the ability to keep the body of the aircraft steady to ensure that people who were unable to pilot would not get into a traffic accident.
Shu Shu immediately felt reassured after hearing of these two functions. He pressed down the power switch to start the aircraft without the slightest hesitation and then, holding the steering wheel, started to speed up.
In order to avoid being stared at by the strange birds in the sky, Shu Shu flew the aircraft only a few meters from the ground. His grasp of the steering wheel was not so good, so that the aircraft nearly ran into trees and rocks several times. But he did not need to worry at all because every time he was about to bump into things and at imminent peril, the aircraft was able to get out of the way by itself.
Really . . . it was so fun!
Shu Shu felt like he was playing a game. He slowed down the speed of the aircraft to hover in the desert.
This oasis was not far from the area where Shu Shu and others lived. Shu Shu’s area had been very lively recently, and it was inevitable that there were fallen beasts who came to the oasis for a rest.
At this moment, a group of fallen beasts came near this oasis. They glanced at the direction of the oasis and finally sat in the desert to eat the captured prey. These were the group of fallen beasts in the mountain and the hyena who had come to inform them.
The fallen beasts in this group radiated an aura of violence, and the snake fallen beast who took the lead looked incomparably gloomy and cold and seemed to carry a murderous aura. As they ate, they began to communicate.
They had been associates for quite a long time, and they had their own communication methods. The low growls and text allowed them to have a relatively fast-paced chat.
"Aldous, the crown prince and the crown princess are really in that oasis? What shall we do next?" A cat fallen beast turned his gaze toward their boss.
The huge snake beast tapped the ground with his tail. "We must think of a way to save ourselves."
These fallen beasts had all violated the law. Some were downright criminals; they broke their beast cores and became fallen beasts while they were committing a crime or when they were arrested. Some were those who were resentful after becoming fallen beasts; they tried to take revenge and ended up committing a crime. According to reason, fallen beasts like them should be put in prison. But since they were fallen beasts . . . and considering that the Beastman Empire had not prepared a prison for fallen beasts, the people in the upper level of the Empire simply sent them to the Fallen Beast Planet.
Before Reynolds came to the Fallen Beast Planet, such criminals named themselves kings and lorded over the Fallen Beast Planet because they were the most vicious of all. But after Reynolds came, these men were all defeated and could only went into hiding with their tails between their legs. Later, when there were criminals coming, they would be driven away by Reynolds.
This group of fallen beasts understood well that it was clearly impossible for the crown princess to save them with his method of restoring the beast core . . . . Even if Shu Shu was willing to save them, so many people were waiting for Shu Shu to save them. Maybe it would take another hundred years before it was their turn. Therefore, they could only try to save themselves.
"What’s the method?" Someone asked.
"As long as we can grab that Shu Shu, we don’t need to worry about anything else." Aldous wrote on the ground, the snake's vertical pupils narrowing and flashing with cold light.
Along the way, they had asked numerous people about the crown prince and the crown princess and learned many things about Edgar and Shu Shu.
The crown prince was very strong before, but he was just a fallen beast now. Meanwhile, there was a child in the crown princess' belly. So it was not difficult at all to catch them. After catching them, they might be able to become beastmen!
Even if they could not become beastmen . . . . Since they could not recover, it was best that others did not recover either!
Since they had decided on such a plan, they had been tracking Edgar and Shu Shu's whereabouts these days.
These people were just discussing about it, and a goshawk fallen beast suddenly flew over from a distance and then landed in front of Aldous. "The men who followed the crown prince and the crown princess have all gone back, but the crown prince and the crown princess remain in the oasis!
There was still such a good thing? The eyes of these fallen beasts lit up. Just then, they saw an aircraft streaked across the sky and flew away crookedly.
"That's His Imperial Highness the Crown Prince's aircraft." The goshawk fallen beast wrote a sentence on the ground, somewhat stupid. It took them a lot of effort to come up here, and they just happened to run into the crown prince and the crown princess whom were left alone. As a result, before they even started, those two men ran away?
This was so unfair!
These fallen beasts were in a very bad mood. At this moment, they saw the aircraft that had gone away unexpectedly fly back again.
"Let's chase it." Aldous shook his tail and motioned everyone to catch up. But, how could they chase such a fine aircraft? Their feet had all worn down from running, and they still hadn’t caught up with the aircraft, whose flying speed was actually not fast at all.
This aircraft flew crookedly and kept flying back and forth in the sky. They totally couldn’t make out where it was going to go. Sometimes they chased after it with much toil for a while only to see the aircraft above their heads directly turn round and go back. It simply made them feel like spitting out a mouthful of blood.
After doing their utmost to chase, Aldous just wanted to give up. At this moment, the aircraft suddenly stopped in front of them.
Shu Shu had long found that there were fallen beasts following him, and he felt very helpless toward this. He did not know how to deal with the fallen beasts who worshiped him and wanted to please him, so he simply ignored them. He thought they would surely give up after a while, but unexpectedly, these people were surprisingly very tenacious and continued to chase him without stopping.
Running around like this, the bodies of these fallen beasts would be in trouble . . . . Shu Shu thought about going down to have a good chat with them and make them abandon this idea of running after the aircraft.
After the aircraft stopped, Shu Shu shouted at those people, "Hey, you all don't run after me!"
Aldous, leading the fallen beasts, slowly approached the aircraft. He knew that the crown prince and the crown princess certainly didn’t recognize them, so they could completely pretend to be ordinary fallen beasts . . . .
"I'm going to leave this place. You go stay in the oasis, okay? Don't follow me." Shu Shu said again, trying not to look at Aldous as much as possible. He was afraid of snakes after all.
As a result, a wolf-shaped fallen beast beside Aldous suddenly jumped up and pounced on Shu Shu.
"Ah!" Shu Shu cried out in fear. At the same time, Edgar swished his snake tail and struck the huge wolf straight away.
Aldous had already launched an attack at this time and even sprayed his venom directly, but it was blocked before it fell on Shu Shu’s body. He did not know what the hell was blocking the venom.
A group of fallen beasts came over and surrounded the aircraft, wholeheartedly trying to do something big. Edgar looked at them with scorn and excitement in his eyes.

Unedited chapter
90. Looking For Spirit Grass
A romantic candlelight dinner was prepared with the utmost care, yet it ended up frightening the man he liked . . . . Edgar coiled his massive body and sat on the side quietly with his head on top of his body; his mood was not particularly beautiful.
Although Shu Shu was startled, but he actually calmed down quickly and then sat beside the table. "Why did you make the room like this?"
"It's nothing." Edgar replied. "You’ve been in a bad mood lately, so I had the chef make you something delicious. "
"So that’s the case." Shu Shu turned his gaze toward the table and found that there was indeed a lot of fine food arranged on the table. Although it did not smell good because it was a little cold, but he did prefer to eat food that had cooled down a bit, and this one was just right.
With such a thought, Shu Shu forked a piece of meat and put it directly into his mouth. Then he narrowed his eyes contentedly—it was really delicious.
"Your mood hasn’t been too good recently. What's going on?" Seeing Shu Shu eat happily, Edgar asked.
Hearing Edgar ask this, Shu Shu, who was still very excited just now, at once looked as deflated as a balloon with no gas. "I’m indeed very worried. There’re so many fallen beasts, ah . . . . How long will it take me to restore their beast cores?"
Could he still have free time in the next ten years?
It turned out that Shu Shu was worried about this . . . . Edgar somewhat wanted to laugh, but his current physical condition made him unable to laugh, and it seemed weird to simulate the laughter with spiritual power. In the end, he only said, "You don't need to worry about this. I’ll handle this matter later on. Inevitably there’ll be a way." Once his body had completely recovered, this thing would be handled by him. How could he let Shu Shu continue to be busy all the time?
After he recovered, his spiritual power would be much stronger than Shu Shu’s, and he should be able to help those people restore their beast cores much faster.
Edgar looked at Shu Shu gently. He knew Shu Shu's character; hearing him say so, Shu Shu would surely hug him gratefully and then said, "Edgar, you’re really good," or some other words.
As a fallen beast, he could only count on such intimacy now.
However, Shu Shu did not react like what Edgar hoped for or say the words Edgar wanted to hear. On the contrary, he fixed his attention on the flower vase, unable to take his eyes off it.
Edgar could not help but feel a little nervous and then spoke again, "Aren’t these flowers very pretty?"
Flowers? Shu Shu paid attention to the flowers inserted in the vase and immediately said, "They’re not pretty at all; they’re very ugly." There were many kinds of flowers on the earth, and there were even more varieties of flowers in the Beastman Empire. As a daemon who had taken illustration lessons in the bridal class of the Imperial College, he had to say that the flowers Edgar inserted haphazardly were really very ugly.
Shu Shu stared at this flower vase, but what he actually stared at was the little grass in the flower vase.
Faint spiritual power lingered on this unremarkable little grass. Although Shu Shu did not recognize it and could not name it, but he knew that this was a spirit grass.
He had just heard from Jones and the old doctor that the Beastman Empire might have spirit grass. He did not expect to see it so soon!
As Shu Shu looked at the spirit grass with excitement, he also felt some regret. When he was on the Gass Planet, he should not have stayed only in his own small piece of land. If he had known earlier that there was spirit grass in this world, he would have definitely looked all over the place for it.
Spirit grass was a good thing that could increase cultivation, ah! If there was spirit grass, he might not need to cultivate! When Shu Shu secretly followed his owner to read a self-cultivation novel, the one he envied the most was not the protagonist who struggled arduously all the way and finally climbed to the top. Instead, it was those secondary immortals who were able to advance in rank by taking drugs.
Anyway . . . spirit grass might be useful to fallen beasts too?
Staring at the spirit grass, Shu Shu’s saliva was about to flow out.
Edgar, however, fell silent. He wanted to be a bit romantic, but as a result . . . . Obviously, his romantic preparations had utterly failed.
"From which neck of the woods did you get this grass? Are there more of this kind of grass?" Shu Shu asked Edgar while holding the spirit grass.
"It’s others who got it. I also don't know where the place is specifically." Edgar replied. "This kind of grass with spiritual power is very special?" Although this grass had spiritual power, but its spiritual power was very weak. He felt that there was nothing extraordinary about it.
"These are all treasures!" Shu Shu searched out all kinds of alchemy knowledge he had obtained from the red bead in his mind and slowly explained them.
Edgar had heard Shu Shu speak a bit about this before, but at that time, Shu Shu only mentioned it briefly. As a result, it was only now that he finally got the details.
Edgar wondered from where Shu Shu knew so many things . . . . He was very curious but did not question Shu Shu closely.
"This is indeed a good thing." Edgar agreed with what Shu Shu said and also realized the preciousness of this kind of spirit grass. "I’ll have people go look for it again."
"Beastmen who have never cultivated, even if they see a spirit grass in front of their eyes, they won’t be able to recognize it, ah!" Shu Shu said with some frustration. Suddenly, he had an idea, "Otherwise, let's go look for it together? "
"Then I’ll arrange it. "Edgar said.
"Okay." Shu Shu nodded. He knew that Edgar's so-called arrangement should be to find some people to accompany them, and he had no opinion at all on this—having servants was indeed a good thing, ah!
Edgar quickly made some arrangements. After Shu Shu woke up the next day, he was informed that he could set off at any time.
He could go out and have fun? Shu Shu at once nodded excitedly. "Let's go then!"
Edgar and Shu Shu took an aircraft and left the place where they had lived for quite a long time. After leaving, Shu Shu discovered that although he had not seen any plants because their lifepod had fallen into the desert, but other areas on this planet were actually covered with all kinds of plants. It was just that these plants did not look very good and only had a single variety.
No wonder Edgar would stick such ugly flowers in the vase before. The reality was that there were too few good-looking plants on this planet!
Shu Shu sat in the aircraft and looked at everything outside. In passing, he felt the change of spiritual power, and his mood was getting better—after they left the desert, the spiritual power in the air unexpectedly became more and more rich.
The spiritual power in the desert was richer than on the Gass planet, and the spiritual power in other areas on this planet was absolutely incomparable than on the Gass planet.
The little snake was also in a good mood. He had been staying in the desert since he was born and had never seen the outside world. Now that he suddenly saw it, he was not about to blink—snakes did not have eyelids and could not blink, but they were not real snakes, so they could blink like humans.
Edgar and Shu Shu’s first stop was the place where the soldiers had helped pick some flowers for them before. It was a large oasis located in the middle of the desert. It looked very beautiful and was alive with all kinds of living creatures . . . .
As soon as the aircraft stopped, Shu Shu jumped down from it and then strolled around the oasis excitedly. He really liked the small lake in the middle of the oasis. "The scenery here is really good . . . . Is there fish in the water?"
Edgar was silent. He knew that Shu Shu's focus always stood out from the masses.
"I'll help you catch some fish." Edgar said, the huge snake body sliding into the water right away.
Upon seeing this, Shu Shu immediately asked the soldiers who came with them to arrange the prepared table and chairs and take out the solar grill as he waited for Edgar to catch some fish back.
The time Edgar spent staying in the small lake was much longer than Shu Shu had expected, but when Edgar came out of the lake, he did live up to expectations and brought some fish back.
After Edgar crawled out of the lake with one fish in each of his four paws, he spoke to the soldiers who came with them, "There’s nothing to do here for the time being. You go eat something on the aircraft."
"Yes, Your Imperial Highness." Hearing Edgar say so, the soldiers soon left, allowing Edgar and Shu Shu to live in a two-person world.
Shu Shu only thought that Edgar made those men leave because he felt that their presence was irksome. Not thinking much about it, he picked up the fish that Edgar had caught and sorted them out while saying, "You should make them kill the fish first before letting them leave . . .” Not to mention that the fish here were strange-looking, the size was also quite big. It was not very convenient for him to handle them.
"I found something good and want to show it only to you." Edgar said, opening his mouth and abruptly spitting out some aquatic plants.
These aquatic plants looked very ordinary, but they all had spiritual power! Shu Shu was stunned seeing these aquatic plants and couldn't care less about half of the fish he had sorted out.
"The spiritual power under the water is very rich. There’s an area there where many of such aquatic plants grow." Edgar said. He initially wanted to catch some fish first after going under water just now, but then he sensed an area with very rich spiritual power, and so he went over to investigate first. Afterwards, he also picked some aquatic plants, and only before he was about to go ashore did he leisurely catch some fish.
"I don't know what this is, but it has spiritual power. Would you say that this is that kind of elixir which will increase cultivation sharply after you eat it?" Shu Shu looked at Edgar excitedly.
"I saw fish eat the surrounding aquatic plants, so this thing should be non-poisonous." Edgar said. He noticed Shu Shu's coveting look and simply ate one first. "I'll try it first."
The snake mouth was not convenient to taste, but Edgar felt that the aquatic plant should not taste good at all because it was a little rough and scraped his throat. However, after eating . . . the aquatic plant that had just been consumed entered the stomach, and a streak of spiritual power at once spread over Edgar’s chest and abdomen. This spiritual power was not particularly rich, but it was still a lot, which made Edgar feel at ease all over.
After waiting for a while, besides feeling comfortable, Edgar still had no other reaction and did not feel out of sorts the slightest either. He immediately said, "This spirit grass is edible." With that said, Edgar tore a bit of the tenderest stalk and leaves of the spirit grass and gave them to the little snake inside the small box on the side.
That's right, they took along the little snake with them on their trip this time, but the treatment that the little snake received was obviously not very good—Edgar put him in a transparent box that had been filled with water.
The simple little snake was not displeased at all; on the contrary, he loved the box very much . . . . After Edgar threw the aquatic plant in, he ate it happily.
Edgar was all right after eating it, and so was the little snake. Shu Shu also didn’t hesitate to pick up an aquatic plant and eat it.
Immediately after the aquatic plant was swallowed down into the stomach, a streak of spiritual power appeared within Shu Shu's body. Shu Shu's cultivation speed had always been very slow. Such an experience of suddenly getting so much spiritual power was particularly precious and exciting to him. He hurriedly stuffed some more aquatic plants into his mouth again.
Edgar also ate a big mouthful, and his mouth was so big that he directly ate multiple times the amount that Shu Shu ate, making Shu Shu can’t help but feel rather dissatisfied.
"There’re still a lot of aquatic plants below. If you still want to eat, I'll go and get them for you again." Edgar said.
"It’s unnecessary for now. So much spiritual power is enough for me to absorb for a long time." Shu Shu smiled at Edgar, but his face abruptly changed, and then he covered his belly.
"What happened? Stomach ache?" Edgar asked worriedly. Unexpectedly, a second later, Shu Shu abruptly turned into a little hamster in front of him.
The little hamster lay supine on the ground, staring skyward with his four feet flailing; his state looked very bad . . . . Edgar only felt that the blood in his whole body seemed to stop flowing. "Shu Shu!"
What’s the matter with Shu Shu? Weren’t those aquatic plants non-poisonous? He had eaten a lot and was obviously fine! Edgar carefully placed his snake tail on Shu Shu's belly and inputted his spiritual power into Shu Shu's body to check. Once he checked, he discovered that Shu Shu’s sudden change into the original form should be caused by the body’s inability to digest the sudden influx of energy.
The little hamster’s body was full of spiritual power brought by the aquatic plants, and under the rampaging spiritual power, the little hamster started to thrash around.
Looking at the little hamster, Edgar was extremely distressed. Unfortunately, he could not even hug him. He could only use his snake tail to gently caress and stroke the little hamster while helping him absorb the excess spiritual power.
It was at this time that Edgar discovered that the child in Shu Shu's belly seemed to be absorbing this spiritual power as well.
Moreover, this unborn child absorbed the spiritual power even faster than Shu Shu.

"I saw fish eat the surrounding aquatic plants, so this thing should be non-poisonous." Edgar said. He noticed Shu Shu's coveting look and simply ate one first. "I'll try it first."
The snake mouth was not convenient to taste, but Edgar felt that the aquatic plant should not taste good at all because it was a little rough and scraped his throat. However, after eating . . . the aquatic plant that had just been consumed entered the stomach, and a streak of spiritual power at once spread over Edgar’s chest and abdomen. This spiritual power was not particularly rich, but it was still a lot, which made Edgar feel at ease all over.
After waiting for a while, besides feeling comfortable, Edgar still had no other reaction and did not feel out of sorts the slightest either. He immediately said, "This spirit grass is edible." With that said, Edgar tore a bit of the tenderest stalk and leaves of the spirit grass and gave them to the little snake inside the small box on the side.
That's right, they took along the little snake with them on their trip this time, but the treatment that the little snake received was obviously not very good—Edgar put him in a transparent box that had been filled with water.
The simple little snake was not displeased at all; on the contrary, he loved the box very much . . . . After Edgar threw the aquatic plant in, he ate it happily.
Edgar was all right after eating it, and so was the little snake. Shu Shu also didn’t hesitate to pick up an aquatic plant and eat it.
Immediately after the aquatic plant was swallowed down into the stomach, a streak of spiritual power appeared within Shu Shu's body. Shu Shu's cultivation speed had always been very slow. Such an experience of suddenly getting so much spiritual power was particularly precious and exciting to him. He hurriedly stuffed some more aquatic plants into his mouth again.
Edgar also ate a big mouthful, and his mouth was so big that he directly ate multiple times the amount that Shu Shu ate, making Shu Shu can’t help but feel rather dissatisfied.
"There’re still a lot of aquatic plants below. If you still want to eat, I'll go and get them for you again." Edgar said.
"It’s unnecessary for now. So much spiritual power is enough for me to absorb for a long time." Shu Shu smiled at Edgar, but his face abruptly changed, and then he covered his belly.
"What happened? Stomach ache?" Edgar asked worriedly. Unexpectedly, a second later, Shu Shu abruptly turned into a little hamster in front of him.
The little hamster lay supine on the ground, staring skyward with his four feet flailing; his state looked very bad . . . . Edgar only felt that the blood in his whole body seemed to stop flowing. "Shu Shu!"
What’s the matter with Shu Shu? Weren’t those aquatic plants non-poisonous? He had eaten a lot and was obviously fine! Edgar carefully placed his snake tail on Shu Shu's belly and inputted his spiritual power into Shu Shu's body to check. Once he checked, he discovered that Shu Shu’s sudden change into the original form should be caused by the body’s inability to digest the sudden influx of energy.
The little hamster’s body was full of spiritual power brought by the aquatic plants, and under the rampaging spiritual power, the little hamster started to thrash around.
Looking at the little hamster, Edgar was extremely distressed. Unfortunately, he could not even hug him. He could only use his snake tail to gently caress and stroke the little hamster while helping him absorb the excess spiritual power.
It was at this time that Edgar discovered that the child in Shu Shu's belly seemed to be absorbing this spiritual power as well.
Moreover, this unborn child absorbed the spiritual power even faster than Shu Shu.
