Chapter 442 It’s so easy to cheat

Qiao Xixi raised an eyebrow. Personal attacks, she could do that too.

Qiao Xixi's small face emerged from between Jin Lin and Jun Xiao, and she looked her over with a more contemptuous and mocking gaze than Yu Ling.

"They look like beasts, but they're completely useless. They can't even handle the smallest things for their mothers. They're really useless."

Yu Ling was the Beast King's beloved offspring, and she immediately understood the meaning behind Qiao Xixi's words. Her arrogant face immediately darkened.

"You're nothing but a stray beast's offspring, a stinking brat, and you dare to compare yourself to me."

"Yeah, you have such noble blood, why are you still so useless?"

"you!"

Yu Ling was so angry that his fur stood on end.

Qiao Xixi showed no sign of backing down, her face practically right in front of hers; it would be a waste not to hit her.

Qiao Xixi walked up to Yu Ling, her tone full of provocation, "There's one more thing I need to tell you. Soon, you'll lose the Beast King's favor."

"That's impossible! I'm the mother's favorite!"

Qiao Xixi smiled meaningfully: "Look, you don't even know, yet you say you're the one I like the most. The Beast King definitely didn't tell you, did he? Even your brother knows this, but she didn't tell you. It shows that you're not that important at all."

"You're talking nonsense! If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Falcon and Jin Lin stepped forward, their bodies already releasing a powerful aura.

Seeing this, the beast soldiers all moved closer to the spirit.

Qiao Xixi put her hands behind her back and gestured to Jin Lin and the others, telling them not to rush.

"You probably don't know, but the Beast King wants me to find the source of the Dark Stone. This thing can completely suppress those monsters in the Thunder-Swallowing Forest. Once I find it, do you think the Beast King will still care about a useless little brat like you?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Ling's expression changed.

Before this, she was absolutely certain that her mother cared about her. Even though she knew about Qiao Xixi's existence, she didn't take her seriously. But if she really made a great contribution, would her mother's attitude towards her remain unchanged?

"You don't even know what the source of the Dark Stone is, what makes you think you can compete with me!"

These words greatly provoked Yu Ling. Her eyes widened. "Who says I don't know? My father beast once told me that the royal family has records of this. I will definitely find it before you do!"

Josie quickly caught the message in her words; it seemed that the royal family really knew about this.

"Then we'll see."

Yu Ling still wanted to cause trouble for Qiao Xixi, but worried about delaying the search for the source of the Dark Stone, so he gritted his teeth and left with his beast soldiers after saying, "You just wait."

Qiao Xixi scoffed, "So easy to fool."

“Xixi…”

Qiao Xixi turned to look at Yaoxi, her sharp edge softening. "Aunt Yaoxi, did I scare you?"

Yao Xi smiled and shook her head. She actually liked Qiao Xixi's bright and bold personality, unlike herself.

"XiXi, I just heard you say you were looking for something, right?"

Qiao Xixi originally planned to get to know Yao Xi better before bringing it up, but she didn't expect Yao Xi to ask about it on her own initiative.

"Yes, I want to find the source of the Dark Stone. I've heard that only the royal family of Beast King City knows. Have you heard of it, Aunt Yaoxi?"

Yaoxi nodded without hesitation.

Qiao Xixi was surprised that Yao Xi had actually heard of her.

Yaoxi looked around, thought for a moment, and said, "Come inside with me first, we'll talk inside." "Okay."

Qiao Xixi and Yao Xi entered the stone house.

She had guessed that things inside the stone house couldn't be good when she was outside, but she didn't expect it to be this bad.

There were only two moldy stone benches in the room, not even a wooden bed. In the corner, there were a few faded animal skin mats on the ground, and next to the mats was a wooden frame, which Yaoxi probably made herself. Perhaps the female wasn't strong enough, so it was very simple.

Even so, the house was kept very clean.

The environment inside made Yaoxi feel awkward for a moment, but she quickly composed herself and asked Qiao Xixi to sit down.

The stone house was too small, so Jin Lin and the others didn't go in; they stayed outside.

"Aunt Yaoxi, you said you know the source of the Dark Stone?"

Yao Xi nodded. "I've heard Father Beast mention this before. Actually, it's always been a secret that the royal family can't tell."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xixi knew there must be something going on.

“I heard my father beast say that a long time ago…” She couldn’t remember which generation of beast king it was. Back then, several beast cities were very powerful, and there were also many large tribes that wanted to expand their territory and power.

As the Beast King, how could he not sense their ambition? In order to enrich his own strength, that generation of Beast King conceived the idea of ​​creating something that would give the males greater power.

"Later, a witch doctor devised a dark magic... to make the males absorb the power of the Dark Stone. After absorbing the power, the males did become stronger, even stronger than those who had awakened their beast souls. The Beast King was very happy."

But he didn't know that by saying this, he was giving dark power fertile ground to grow. The power of the Dark Stone grew stronger and stronger under his care, to an uncontrollable degree.

The beasts that inadvertently absorbed the power of darkness mutated. Seeing things spiraling out of control, the Beast King of that generation finally realized the danger and quickly ordered the witch doctor to find a way to bury the source of the Dark Stone deep inside and then suppress it with the power of the Beast Soul.

He worried that the power of suppression would weaken over time, so he instructed his successors to find someone to guard the source and to suppress it immediately if anything went wrong.

Josh frowned as she listened. "If that's the case, then the source of this Dark Stone should be right under the watchtower."

Yao Xi shook her head. "I don't know. Because of this, the relationship was severed with the previous Beast King."

It's broken?
A somber look crossed Yao Xi's face. "Because back then, she didn't want to pass the throne to me, so she was unwilling to tell me. But when Yu Qing ascended the throne, she was already seriously ill and couldn't speak anymore."

Qiao Xixi's eyes widened in surprise. "Aunt Yaoxi, are you saying that the position of Beast King should have been yours?"

Yaoxi nodded, "But my mother doesn't like me, so she's unwilling to tell me about it."

Perhaps the previous Beast King still thought he had a long life ahead of him and wasn't in a hurry to tell Yu Qing about this, so Yu Qing didn't know.

But who knew that the previous Beast King would suddenly fall seriously ill and die before he could finish his business?

This led to the matter ending with Yu Qing.

"Besides royalty, is it possible that the high priests would know?"

Yao Xi shook her head. "They probably don't know. After all, this isn't a good thing." If this were to come out, it would definitely damage the prestige of the royal family.

"But don't worry, Xixi, I know some old people in the palace. I'll ask them."

Qiao Xixi was surprised to get such useful information from Yaoxi, and she was very grateful. "Thank you, Aunt Yaoxi."

Yao Xi shook her head. "I would be happy if I could help you."

After chatting for a while, Yaoxi saw Qiao Xixi to the door.

"Xixi, don't run around in the palace. If you must go somewhere, make sure your beastman comes with you."

Qiao Xixi asked with some doubt, "Besides the possibility that someone might be targeting me, isn't this palace safe either?"
