Chapter 438: Chapter 328: Sharp Tongue (Part 2)

Is he really that terrifying?

Hasn’t he just been in a bad mood lately and gotten a bit sharp-tongued?

Is it necessary to avoid him like this?

Zeke felt a pain in his chest from anger. Just as he turned around, he saw Corbin Crowley leaning casually against the doorframe, arms crossed, watching him with amusement in his silver eyes, “What, has your temper not cooled yet?”

Zeke’s face darkened, and he turned his head away irritably, “What’s it to you?”

Corbin didn’t mind his attitude, instead chuckled lightly, stepping forward, “If you need to vent your anger somewhere, go hunting. It’s almost winter, stockpile some prey, and while the sun’s still good, salt and dry them.”

Zeke was slightly taken aback by his words.

He hadn’t expected Corbin to offer such advice.

But…

Hunting is indeed a fine way to let off steam.

Moreover, the tribe’s beastmen are indeed busy hunting and storing food for winter.

Zeke’s jade eyes flickered, he glanced at Corbin, a cold smile curling at his lips, “Alright, I’m going now.”

With that said, he turned and transformed into a Celestial Moon-chaser Wolf, leapt into the air, and disappeared from the courtyard in an instant.

Corbin watched his departing figure, raising an eyebrow slightly.

At least he managed to send him off, the courtyard can be a bit more peaceful now. Every day, it’s either cursing this one or that one, and his mouth is especially venomous, my head’s getting bigger just listening to him.

Affecting Luna’s mood as well.

Luna Sutton lay on the large bed in the master bedroom, the room closest to the courtyard, all the sounds from outside drifting in through the window.

She sighed softly, naturally knowing the crux of Zeke’s issue.

Several beast husbands already have cubs, except for him, it’s hard not to feel unbalanced.

This pregnancy matter is not for her to decide, whose cub to conceive is up to fate.

Last night, the system quietly told her that Zeke suspects he might be infertile and secretly consulted The Old Shaman.

Unfortunately, The Old Shaman couldn’t find anything amiss, just advised him not to rush.

“System, is Zeke’s body not a problem?”

She couldn’t help but ask the system internally.

The system quickly bounced out upon hearing her, “Zeke’s body is perfectly fine, but he’s naturally weak in fertility, although he can conceive, the chances are smaller than others.”

“What?”

Luna Sutton was shocked, completely surprised that Zeke would be weak in fertility, something even in the later times that’s hard to treat, let alone in a beast world that places extreme importance on offspring.

Thinking about Zeke’s aloof and indifferent nature, not enthusiastic about anything, his demeanor and appearance seemingly detached from worldly desires, drifting like an Immortal.

Could it be that fate destined him to cultivate, cultivate into an Immortal, distant from worldly bonds, dedicated to a path of no desire, a true Immortal?

But this is a beast world, emphasizing strength above all, lineage, offspring legacy.

Moreover, several beast husbands have had their wishes fulfilled with their cubs, except for Zeke, inevitably he would obsess over it.

“Is there any way?”

She couldn’t help but ask the system.

The system was silent for a moment upon hearing her, then slowly responded, “Actually, you can try using your Wood Element Ability to nurture his body. Zeke is a Celestial Moon-chaser Wolf, naturally close to the moonlight and Wood Element. Your Wood Element Ability is already at Seventh Rank Peak, soon to break through to the eighth rank, nurturing his body can completely improve his fertility condition.”

The Wood Element Ability, besides healing, its greatest function is nourishment, whether it’s nourishing the body or the soul.

Previously, Luna Sutton had used her Wood Element Ability to nurture Kael, Kael Shadowend, Frey, and the eight little serpent cubs, also grooming their bodies, the result was indeed remarkable.

Luna Sutton’s eyes shimmered with this delightful idea.

However, this will wait until she finishes her postpartum rest, currently she’s nurturing her own body, and there’s no rush with this matter, it can take its time.

“By the way, Master, you should have Soren Phoenix return to Aetheria once.”

The system remembered something, couldn’t help but softly remind.

“Has something happened to The Phoenix Clan of Aetheria?”

She hesitated for a moment before asking puzzled.

The system didn’t conceal anything, directly projected Xylon Phoenix’s recent movements before her.

Soon, a light screen appeared in front of her, showing scenes of The Phoenix Clan of Aetheria.

The Phoenix Clan of Aetheria, the side hall of The Phoenix Tree Hall.

The floor paved with warm jade, covered with thick snow fleece beast skin, a beautiful and graceful female, the daughter of the Clan Leader of The Peacock Tribe, Ruby.

She leaned lazily against Xylon Phoenix’s arms, a happy smile on her face, her belly bulging high, clearly close to giving birth.

Xylon Phoenix held her, smiling cheerfully at her belly, his expression extremely pleased, full of pride for late-gotten offspring.

He directly handed a box of Flame Crystal Stone to Ruby, “Take it, if it’s not enough, let me know. As long as you can give birth to the Phoenix Egg well and nurture it, you will be a meritorious figure for the Phoenix Clan.”

Ruby happily accepted, her face blooming with even more charming and alluring smiles.

Her voice was sweetly coy and sugary, “Xylon, do you think… our cub will resemble you more or me?”

Xylon Phoenix chuckled twice, his well-cared-for face filled with doting, “Naturally, it will resemble you, your loveliness is best. I’ve already ordered that after the Phoenix Egg is birthed, regardless of male or female, I’ll personally educate it, nurture it with the best Parasol Divine Wood and Flame Crystal Marrow.”

Speaking to this point, his smile deepened, lifting Ruby’s chin, “And of course, you won’t be neglected.”

Luna Sutton looked at the scene before her, her brow instantly furrowed.

Although Xylon Phoenix hasn’t openly said he’s given up on Soren, he has internally done so, silently cultivating a new heir.

Beastmen generally have long lifespans, though Xylon Phoenix is not young, he’s not old either, fully capable and has time to cultivate another heir.

When the time comes, Soren will become an abandoned child, and the Phoenix Clan won’t have a place for him.

“Does Soren know about this?”

She asked the system internally.

“Soren currently doesn’t know, but Xylon Phoenix didn’t explicitly conceal it, the information is basically known within The Phoenix Clan of Aetheria, especially since Xylon Phoenix places such importance on Ruby’s belly, anyone with eyes can see it. Master, if Soren wants to keep his position as Young Master, he needs to return once, best before Ruby gives birth to the Phoenix Egg, otherwise his foundation will be shaken, and it’ll be hard for him to return in the future.”

The system’s words pointed out the key, Soren staying in The Lower Domain to hatch eggs might be warm, but long term, it’s disadvantageous to him and would ruin his future.

Even if he doesn’t care, what about those three newly hatched Phoenix Eggs?

Without family nurture, without clan protection, would they truly become wild phoenixes?

Though they can stay in The Wolf Tribe, it’s still The Wolf Tribe, not the Phoenix Clan, whether in resources or nurturing aspects, it can’t compare.

Just like the box of Flame Crystal Stone Xylon Phoenix gave Ruby, it’s a treasure others dream of.

At least Luna Sutton doesn’t have it, nor does The Lower Domain often possess such treasures.
