Chapter 190: Chapter 189: Their Female Saint Is Very Old

Si Shuo had been watching from below the stage. Wei Ce’s Earth Element Ability was indeed powerful. However, condensing stone required time and energy, so he couldn’t form solid blocks of rock. Instead, he mixed gravel into the dirt to increase its hardness and attack power. A Beastman’s best combat state was their Beast Form, which allowed them to maximize their running speed, physical toughness, agility, and bite force.

Now that he had the Stone Monster Summoning Technique, it was like a gamer summoning a Netherworld Fighter. His Combat Power would soar, and he would have a helper that would never betray him.

Wei Ce himself was an Earth Element Ability User, so summoning a stone monster in battle wouldn’t seem out of place. Everyone would just assume he had condensed a special kind of stone monster from an Earth Spirit!

It could be said that the Stone Monster Summoning Technique Si Shuo had acquired for him covered his only weakness in combat. Even if he faced a group of enemies, he would have no fear.

However, Wei Ce’s attention wasn’t on this right now. He didn’t believe that just because the White Fox Cub muttered a few words, he could obtain a second superpower—something more than half of all Beastmen failed to get in their entire lifetime.

Si Shuo straightened up with a smile and patted his chest. “Wei Ce, snap out of it. Are you dumbstruck with happiness?”

Wei Ce lurched a big step back, stammering, “White Fox Cub, we… we’re both males. We can’t do this. If… if the female in my family found out, it would be bad…”

“But do you like it when I treat you like this?” Feeling the heat on the back of her neck, Si Shuo’s lips curved into a smirk. ’This big dummy in front of me is mine!’

She smiled and walked toward him, step by step. The massive male was actually being forced back against the opposite wall by her advance.

Wei Ce’s body was tense against the wall, his face beet red. “I… I like it. But we can’t do this.”

“Do what?” Si Shuo leaped up and threw her arms around his neck.

Wei Ce instinctively reached out to hold her legs, gazing at the cub so close to him. The soft, warm feeling in his arms made him feel like a Wild Beast trapped in a cage, desperately ramming against the bars.

’He wanted the cage to be strong and secure, so he could restrain his wicked thoughts and maintain a pure relationship as Couple Brothers with “him”. But even more, he wanted the cage to be smashed open, so he could recklessly give in to his inner desires. He wanted to follow “his” example from just a moment ago and devour the person before him, piece by piece.’

The “he” before him was even more vibrant and exquisite than before. The smile blooming in “his” eyes outshone all the flowers covering the mountains and fields, making his own heart bloom in response.

Si Shuo kissed him again. “Like this?”

Wei Ce’s whole body tensed up. He said pitifully, “White Fox Cub, stop teasing me. I’ll take it seriously!”

Si Shuo pursed her lips and chuckled. “Idiot!”

’They were out in the open, after all.’ She was genuinely afraid this Iron-eating Beast would be frightened senseless by her, so she didn’t take her “lesson” any further.

Finally, the White Fox Cub listened to reason and got off him. Wei Ce broke out in a cold sweat, but his heart felt sweet, and he was more certain than ever that latching onto “him” was the right choice.

Holding Si Shuo’s hand, the two of them finally dispelled the Protective Shield and started walking out. But Wei Ce frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, “White Fox Cub, are you saying that… what we just did… is the only way to contribute my Beast Mark?”

Si Shuo bit her lip to hold back a laugh. ’An era unspoiled by the internet is really quite adorable.’ How was she supposed to answer that?

“Mmm, I guess so,” she said vaguely, brushing him off for now. ’I can tease him about it slowly later.’

Wei Ce’s expression grew a little serious. The mere thought of himself or the White Fox Cub doing that with any other female stirred an indescribable fire of anger and displeasure in his heart.

When they reached the mouth of the alley, Yin Jiang reached his hand out to Si Shuo.

Si Shuo smiled and was about to take it, but Wei Ce pulled her behind him with a bit of force. “I’m one of the White Fox Cub’s Couple Brothers now, too. It’s my responsibility to protect him as well.”

Ji Liang and Yin Jiang exchanged a look. ’What on earth did those two simpletons talk about in the alley? How is their relationship status still stuck at Couple Brothers?’

’He hasn’t even walked through the door yet, and Wei Ce is already getting possessive?!’

Yin Jiang gave Si Shuo a half-smile, silently reproaching her for being a fickle lover who forgets the old for the new.

Si Shuo laughed and tried to pull her hand away, but to her surprise, Wei Ce’s grip tightened. He even patted her hand. “White Fox Cub, it’s okay, I’m here. No one will dare bully you from now on.”

A thought then occurred to him, and he turned his head, his expression dark as he told Si Shuo, “You remember this. That thing just now… you… you can’t do it with other males, you hear me? If anyone tries to do that to you, you come find me!”

Come find him for what? To have him bully them back for her, or to let him continue what the other male was trying to do to her? In truth, he hadn’t figured it out himself.

Just then, Ji Liang also shot them a cool look, pointed to his own head, and said, “Hiss… Little Shushu, I was just celebrating that our family got a male with high Combat Power, but now it looks like he’s a little lacking up here.”

“Don’t tell me all the nutrients went to his muscles, leaving only water for his brain?”

Wei Ce’s eyes narrowed. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. “Ji Liang, I may not know much about certain things, but you can’t take advantage of the White Fox Cub’s innocence and bully him!”

Ji Liang grabbed Yin Jiang’s arm, turned his head to the side, and laughed for a few seconds before turning back with a raised eyebrow. “You’re so righteous. Make sure *you* don’t bully him in the future, then.”

Yin Jiang also looked at Si Shuo with a helpless smile. ’Our little female isn’t doing so well. Can we return this dense oaf? I don’t want to get infected.’

“Hah, you think I’m like you? I’ll definitely protect him properly.” At that moment, Wei Ce finally understood why Ji Liang and Yin Jiang were so nice to the White Fox Cub. ’So they were hiding their intentions to take advantage of him all along.’

’I… I must stand my ground! I can’t let myself become a male like them!’

“They’re here! Quick, stop them…” Suddenly, a group of Beastmen rushed over, blocking the alley entrance.

Yin Jiang and Ji Liang spun around, their expressions turning cold and wary as they faced the newcomers.

“It’s the Third Elder and Fifth Elder of our clan,” Wei Ce said, grinding his teeth when he saw the Beastmen standing next to the Iron-eating Beast Clan Members. “The Gray Parrot Clan must have snitched! They couldn’t form a marriage alliance with our Iron-eating Beast Clan, so now they’re trying to ruin my partnership. I was so close…”

All he had to do was meet the female from his family and contribute his Beast Mark, and the partnership would be formally completed.

He had only just earned the right to become a part of their small family. It was highly likely his clansmen would take him back, and getting out again would be difficult!

Si Shuo couldn’t help but touch the back of her neck in relief. She then saw Wei Ce shudder, a flicker of confusion and bewilderment in his eyes for a moment.

Apparently, he didn’t realize that the feeling just now was a pull from the Contract she had formed with him.

“That’s them,” the one who had snitched was a Black Crow Beastman. If Si Shuo remembered correctly, he was one of the Grey Parrot Female Saint Ma Zhi’s Beast Husbands. “They want to form a marriage alliance with you Iron-eating Beasts, but they don’t dare pay a proper visit. Instead, they went behind your backs and abducted Wei Ce. Just now, Wei Ce was even fighting that Eagle Beastman in the ring…”

“Their Female Saint is very old and already has sixteen Beast Husbands. Their family is full of cubs…”
