Interstellar Beast World: The Ferocious Beast Husband Has a Wild Mind

Chapter 164 Joey's Gossip
"Then how come you're here? I mean, why didn't you leave after you recovered?"

Sang Qing suddenly realized that Shi Ying had moved the cage outside after returning from the misty forest.

"Did Shi Ying already know your identity?"

"To repay you, to protect you." Cangyun paused for a moment, then said, "I know."

Both questions were answered concisely, without any unnecessary elaboration.

Cangyun's face was expressionless, as if he were born taciturn, but you could tell that he answered very seriously.

Sang Qing remained silent.

Shi Ying knew all along, but she didn't tell me...

Cangyun is the little blue bird, and she has been in her cage for more than half a year.

After understanding this, my previous wariness of Cangyun has lessened considerably.

She had always thought the little blue bird was just a spirited little bird, but she never expected it to be a beastman.

Some things suddenly become clear.

No wonder Cangyun appeared in time; he must have been following her all along.

She told him not to go, so he secretly followed her without even Shi Ying noticing.

Sang Qing looked at Cang Yun.

Cang Yun was not an ordinary man; in fact, he could be described as handsome. He had sword-like eyebrows, a straight nose, and a calm and composed demeanor.

But he always subconsciously concealed his presence, so that unless one looked specifically, one would hardly notice that he was there.

However, Sang Qing felt that such a grand way of repaying the debt was really unnecessary.

Besides, Cangyun saved her last time, so it can be completely offset.

One thing at a time, she should still thank him.

Sang Qing smiled kindly, "Thank you for what happened last time. You don't need to stay here to protect me. I didn't do anything, so you don't need to repay me."

"Weren't you the commander of the royal guards before? Shouldn't you be going back?"

Cangyun remained silent for a moment, then said, "You don't have to go back."

"Ok?"

Sang Qing was confused and subconsciously looked at Jun Xinyue.

Shouldn't the rules of the royal palace be quite strict?
Can you really just choose not to go back?

Jun Xinyue understood the meaning behind Cang Yun's words. Her fox-like eyes lit up with a smile as she explained, "He was originally a secret guard. He had already completed his mission and was thought to have sacrificed himself. He was even removed from the secret guard roster. He doesn't necessarily have to return to the palace. There's no problem with him following you."

Jun Xinyue walked to Sang Qing's side, her gaze sweeping over Cang Yun, and said meaningfully, "Besides, I don't think he wants to go back at all; he just wants to stay by your side."

Is that right?

Sang Qing looked at Cang Yun with a puzzled expression.

Cang Yun's face remained expressionless, but he did not deny Jun Xinyue's words.

“But… I really don’t need you to repay my kindness. You can leave on your own. If you don’t need to go back to the palace, you can go wherever you want.”

Since Cangyun is an orc, he is not suitable to stay in a cage.

Moreover, she had originally planned to release it.

Cangyun watched as Sang Qing took the birdcage down from under the eaves. His eagle eyes dimmed, and after a long silence, he finally whispered "Okay," before transforming into a little blue bird and disappearing into the sky.

Jun Xinyue looked in the direction where Cangyun had disappeared, a dark glint in her eyes as she pondered something.

A moment later, she turned to look at Sang Qing again: "Darling, you may not know, but the Azure Clan generally honors the person who performs this ritual until their next death." Jun Xinyue placed her right hand on her left shoulder and showed Sang Qing the Azure Clan ritual that had just been performed.

"Among the Azure Clan, only those with half the bloodline of the Phoenix are capable of awakening the Nirvana ability."

Jun Xinyue only touched on the subject briefly; the rest belonged to royal secrets.

Sang Qing still doesn't know much about the fantasy world of beasts.

Is there really such an incredible superpower as Nirvana?

So, last time in the dungeon, or where the space pirate ship crashed, Cang Yun had actually died once already?

and many more!

Could it be that Cang Yun risked his life to stop the spaceship that was transporting prohibited drugs that inexplicably went out of control last time?
Looking back now, if it had just been a little blue bird, encountering a rapidly fleeing spaceship, it would likely have been smashed to pieces and would have had virtually no chance of survival.

The only possibility is that Cangyun used the Azure Falcon's beast form to intercept it.

Sang Qing immediately used his computer to search for photos of the scene of the previous accident. Sure enough, he found that the windshield of the space pirate ship was completely shattered, there was a clear dent at the front of the ship, and a large amount of blood.

Based on the analysis of the feathers that fell at the scene, experts believe that the bird was likely hit.

However, the terrain around the crash site was complex, and no creature that was hit was found.

But these facts are enough to prove her guess.

In that case, his second life should belong to himself, rather than being loyal to or protecting someone else.

Just then, Jiang Zhiyi returned from picking flowers and happily shared the gossip with Sang Qing.

"You know Joroy's second husband, Nansin, right?"

Jiang Zhiyi took an elegant sip of lemon tea and surprisingly tasted the elegance of a fine tea.

Sang Qing also took a bite of the pastry and nodded in agreement.

"He is actually the long-lost son of the Duke of Heman's family..."

Basically, Joey took Nansin back to Duke Heman's mansion to meet his family, but unexpectedly, someone died, and Nansin became the prime suspect.

The specific details are still unclear. According to those in the know, when everyone arrived at the scene on the day of the incident, they found Nanxin covered in blood and in a state of mental agitation. On the floor of the room lay people from the Duke's mansion, some dead and some injured.

Duke Seaman has also fallen into a coma and remains unconscious. There is little doubt that Nansin has been imprisoned, but the verdict has not yet been formally handed down.

During the trip, Jiang Zhiyi and Jun Xinyue also took the opportunity to educate Sang Qing about current events.

There are a total of nine dukes on Beiyun Star, seven of which are located in the Upper City.

The Duke of Heman's House is one of the more representative examples. Their ancestors were of pure mermaid blood and had some connection with the royal family, producing several royal consorts.

However, there was a problem with the offspring in this generation. Duke Heman had more than a dozen beastmen, but the main family had very few offspring. There were no females, and not many males capable of upholding the family's reputation.

One of the direct descendants did marry the second princess, but she was later divorced.

Jun Xinyue is the only legitimate female in the royal family, but she also has several illegitimate sisters. The second princess was born to a concubine and is also a female of very high status.

"Let's leave that aside for now. There's another juicy story you'd never expect."

Jiang Zhiyi, holding a round fan, moved even closer to Sang Qing with great interest, the breeze just enough to reach both of them.

Jun Xinyue occasionally adds details and knowledge that Sang Qing doesn't know.

"Qiao Luoyi attended Lei Jinfeng's maternal grandfather's 80th birthday banquet through Lei Jinfeng's connections, and Lei Jinfeng's uncle was also there."

"You know Lei Jinfeng's uncle, right? He's the most successful member of the Lei family, the one who became a prosecutor at the young age of 25."

"guess what?"

When Jiang Zhiyi got to the crucial point, her face lit up with excitement.
