The delicate yet wicked female is addicted to collecting stamps, and her many beastly husbands vie f

Chapter 169 Clearly, he cares about her.

When Jingxiang's gaze fell upon the shimmering egg, she couldn't help but gasp.

She practically lunged forward, her eyes wide, holding her breath: "This, this is your cub? You put it in the illusionary realm? Is it okay? Won't something go wrong?"

Jingxiang looked on expectantly: "How about we let the cub's father come and watch over it himself?"

In the Orcish continent, males are responsible for caring for their young.

Fu Ying took out the elixir, and with a light touch of her fingertip, it transformed into a lustrous liquid that seeped into the eggshell.

She gazed at the seven-colored egg in her hand, her tone as calm as if she were discussing the weather: "The cub's father threw a tantrum and ran away from home. He probably won't be back anytime soon."

Jingxiang's expression froze instantly, her mouth agape in surprise: "Running away from home??"

Then, she raised her voice and frowned, saying, "Didn't he know you were pregnant? Shouldn't he protect his female and his cubs? That's so irresponsible! What kind of male is he? Is it the male who stabbed you? The one with the purple hair?"

Fu Ying could hear the unspoken meaning in her words: Which race of males? Say it out loud to avoid getting offended.

After the medicine is completely absorbed by the eggshell, the surface develops a healthy sheen.

Fu Ying thought about the situation at the time and said seriously, "He probably doesn't know."

Whale Fragrance: "..."

Fu Ying put the eggshells away again, took out some postpartum care products and ate them, then got up to go find Dan Yue. The issues with the star pattern and fish tail were resolved, but there was still no news about the cubs yesterday.

She had to ask again, more directly, to see if Dan Yue was willing to have a child with her.

If he's unwilling... perhaps she'll have to resort to some special methods.

The tribal trade fair has caused quite a stir, and I reckon the males in the family are about to fall out.

She couldn't stay here forever. She had to deal with Ni, Luoheng, and Wu, and she also had to smooth things over with Bai Cang, Teng, and Qinglan. There was also the cub's father, Bu Ye Hou. There were just too many things to do.

On the beach, the sea breeze, carrying a salty scent, brushed against my face.

Ru wiped her red eyes, her vision blurry, and looked at the six-pointed star pattern on her brother's forehead, still somewhat excited: "Brother...that's wonderful..."

Ru held onto Dan Yue's arm, her nails almost digging into his flesh, as if afraid that he would disappear if she let go.

Her voice was choked with sobs. She had shouldered the heavy burden of the Merfolk alone before she even reached adulthood, and her spine was about to break. Fortunately, her brother came back. He had finally returned.

Dan Yue curved her lips into a smile, her light blue eyes filled with gentleness, and raised her hand to touch the top of her head.

"Brother, will you come back and be the chieftain?" Ru's voice was so low it was almost drowned out by the waves, the last syllable trembling slightly: "When the Giant Shark Tribe attacked, there were so many of them, I..."

Ru's voice choked up again, her face full of lingering fear: "I was so scared at that time, afraid that the Merfolk would become an appendage of the Giant Shark Tribe. How could I face my father then?"

When Dan Yue thought of the Giant Shark Tribe, her gaze suddenly darkened.

He took a deep breath and whispered, "Don't be afraid, your brother is back, everything will be alright."

Ru nodded emphatically, then glanced at the wooden house and hesitated, "Brother, is it really Fuying who helped you reshape the star pattern? Not the sea monster from the Demon Sea Abyss?"

She could hardly believe what Feng Hai said.

Fu Ying, a female, actually dared to venture into the Demon Sea Abyss alone to rescue people!

Hearing her ask that, Dan Yue's eyes glazed over for a moment as memories of the shimmering light from last night flooded back.

He will never forget those scenes.

And the questions she asked him, her voice as soft as a fragile bubble, were exceptionally earnest.

Would you be willing to have a singing baby mermaid with her? "Brother? Brother!" Ru looked at Dan Yue, who was lost in thought, and frowned with some suspicion.

"Hmm?" Dan Yue came back to her senses, looked up at Ru, and a rare blush appeared on the tips of her ears.

Ru Jingjing looked at Dan Yue's stiff figure and suddenly felt a little amused, yet also a little sad.

"I said, what does the prince plan to do about the embroidered pillar?"

Her tone was less resistant now, after all, Fu Ying had indeed changed, and she had helped the Merfolk, saved her brother, and could even transform into a Merfolk, becoming a sea beastman.

It seems that all the hardships and obstacles have become a thing of the past.

Dan Yue's light blue eyes were exceptionally clear, yet she didn't know how to answer your question.

His feelings toward Fuying were very complicated.

At first, he liked her, liked her cheerfulness and brightness. Later, he didn't hate her, but felt disgust and... fear. Yes, he was afraid of her.

Later, she seemed to change completely. She was no longer unpredictable and moody, but became a witch, a witch who constantly clamored to have children with him, even though he didn't have that ability at the time.

But from the moment she was willing to risk her life to travel to the oasis tribe to find his tail scale, all the turbulent waves in his heart quietly subsided. For him, things should end here.

So he left and returned to the sea that belonged to him.

If she hadn't come looking for them, they probably would never have seen each other again.

Perhaps on some stormy night, he will exhaust his remaining lifespan and silently sink into the sea, which can be considered as returning home.

Or perhaps, one day Fuying will be killed, and he will suffer the backlash of the contract and die as well.

Or perhaps he will stay on this small island forever, watching the tides rise and fall, the sun rise and the moon set, looking at his hometown so close yet never able to return.

It wasn't until the Giant Shark Tribe invaded the Merfolk that he finally made up his mind to go to the Demon Sea Abyss.

Even in death, he wanted to be buried in the deep sea with his people.

But he never expected that she would come looking for him, alone and pregnant with a child. She bravely stormed into the infamous Demon Sea Abyss, snatched his mangled body from the sea monster, and slowly infused his shattered life force back into him, giving him hope for life.

Everything was deviating from his expected trajectory. The thought of her leaning on his shoulder, sleeping soundly and defenselessly, made his carefully constructed sense of distance and resolve crumble completely.

He thought he couldn't bear to part with her.

Looking at the complicated expression on Dan Yue's face, Ru pursed her lips.

"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, if it weren't for Fuying this time, the Merfolk might not have survived. Moreover, she can reshape your star patterns. Brother, this is something that no ordinary witch can do."

At this point, your expression became serious.

She recounted in detail what happened in the rock house to Dan Yue, and even now, thinking back on it, she still felt unsettled, as if she were in a dream.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have imagined that such an ordinary oasis tribe female could so easily kill the leader of the giant shark tribe? And even transform into a mermaid?
She almost suspected that Fuying was the reincarnation of a beast god.

These almost miraculous abilities are too mysterious to be explained in just a few words.

Regardless of what happened in the past, at least now Fuying has made amends for all its mistakes through its actions.

Moreover, she could sense the prince's fluctuating emotions, all of which stemmed from Fuying, his female, the one he was destined to protect.

In the beastman continent, males are born to protect their females; it's an instinct ingrained in their bones. Besides, she could clearly feel that her brother cared about her.

You don't know if your thoughts are right or wrong, but she feels that beastmen who have formed a bond should stay together.
