Chapter 81 Long Ze is a doting father to his daughter
Before Qin Ye could speak, Xia Weier appeared beside Ruan Xiyue without her noticing: "I bet the first one to hatch will be a dragon cub. If I win, you'll listen to me tonight."
Ruan Xiyue nodded: "If you lose, you have to listen to me."
"I bet the first one born will be a black dragon cub," Qin Ye said with a smile.
Long Ze frowned slightly; all three eggs were moving.
They seemed eager to come out and reveal the mystery to everyone.
Long Ze continued to release energy until a small hole appeared in the double-yolk egg that Ruan Xiyue had instructed him to use. Only then did he transform into human form and take out the animal skin skirt from his storage bag.
Long Ze was exhausted and needed to clean himself up.
Ruan Xiyue knew that he avoided eye contact with her because he didn't want her to see him looking haggard and disheveled.
"Dodo, are the cubs having fun in the portable parenting space?" Ruan Xiyue asked.
[One bio-mechanical beastman isn't enough, host. If one of the ten cubs gets hungry, the other nine will start clamoring for food too.] Duo Duo's voice was very tired.
[I've already had Cong Xian take care of the two smallest cubs, so I don't have enough to buy a second robot. I've already bought "The Friend of Dual-Use Military and Civilian Talents" and one bio-mechanical beastman. Ten sets of clothes worth 180 points each, and a pair of shoes.]
I only have points left. I didn't even buy the remote-communication earrings, and now they're all back to full price. I think you guys should have more frequent discount promotions.
[My esteemed host, there will be a discount event during the next system upgrade. Please stay tuned!] Duoduo seemed to have regained its motivation and was full of energy again.
Ruan Xiyue was also very curious about the cub's color, so she waited by the side.
The first to emerge was the baby from the double-yolk egg, and this baby was quite domineering. In order to emerge first, it grabbed and bit the other, weaker baby, making chirping noises.
Ruan Xiyue frowned slightly: "Don't bully your sister!"
The little cub was clearly disobedient, continuing to do as she pleased. The other cub was still screaming in pain.
Ruan Xiyue angrily tried to grab the beast egg, but Xia Weier grabbed her.
"It's best if we don't get involved in what the cubs do."
Ruan Xiyue stared intently at Xia Weier. Just as she was about to pry open Xia Weier's hand, a fragile little wing broke through the eggshell. Then, trembling as if using all its strength, it finally crawled out.
It is a winged Chinese dragon with a black back, white wings, a white belly, and white horns. The horns on its head are very small, like two milky white coral tips.
"Ah—" the little cub cried out to Ruan Xiyue, who looked at her but did not comfort her.
The little chicks stood on the edge of the eggshell and began to gnaw at it. Meanwhile, another little chick finally popped its head out, and as soon as it did, its older sister, who had crawled out first, stepped on its head.
The other cub could only hide, then pop its head out again, only to be trampled again.
Just as Ruan Xiyue was looking at her sister with a furrowed brow, she seemed to realize that her mother seemed unhappy. She tentatively stepped on her mother with her little paws, then withdrew them.
The little guy turned around, facing Ruan Xiyue with its dragon tail, and struggled to eat the eggshell.
Why is this cub so domineering?
[This cub has an ancestral bloodline; it's an Yinglong cub. When it was in the host's womb, it was the weakest. Because it gave all its nutrients to its younger sister, and if the host hadn't given your beast husband a mid-grade energy pill, the little cub might not have survived.]
Ruan Xiyue was stunned. She felt like she could wake up in the middle of the night and slap herself: I deserve to die!
【Why didn’t you say so earlier! 】
"Um—the host didn't ask that just now..." Duoduo weakly explained.
The other two baby dragons were trying very hard to eat the eggshells, but they were no match for the two sisters who were eating the eggshells together.
The two female cubs finished eating the eggshell first, and the Yinglong cub excitedly spread its little wings and cried out "Ah-ah-ah-ah".
When Long Ze came over, he held the two little females on his head with a gentle expression.
For a moment, Ruan Xiyue was stunned. Long Ze had never shown such a gentle smile to anyone other than her, including the cubs!
Ruan Xiyue felt her heart melt at that moment.
Because my younger sister looks like a viper, a tree viper, all white except for the black markings on her horns and scales. But she has no claws.
Duo Duo told Ruan Xiyue that the Candle Dragon didn't have claws. Ruan Xiyue was relieved, fearing that the cub might have some kind of defect.
But since the younger sister didn't have claws, she could only bite Longze's hair to keep herself from falling off her father's head.
The older sister, meanwhile, was excitedly grabbing Longze's hair with her claws.
"Doesn't it hurt?" Ruan Xiyue asked, puzzled.
Long Ze didn't even shake his head, turning his face slightly to the side: "How could it hurt? It doesn't hurt."
Ruan Xiyue's expression said: Whatever you say goes!
After all, she had seen Long Ze feed the cubs before.
Silver Dragon Ruan Zeyi, Black Dragon Ruan Zeer, and even the young dragon cub Long Yuan, who shares the same surname as Long Ze, would frown and make a sound like "Hiss—tsk—" if his claws accidentally peeked out and grabbed Long Ze's hand.
So, Long Ze is a doting father to his daughter!
The daughter gently tugged at her hair, her face full of tenderness: "It doesn't hurt."
The son scratched his fingers, frowning impatiently: Tsk—
Ruan Xiyue couldn't help but chuckle.
Then he looked at Xia Weier and Qin Ye: "You two guessed wrong, tonight..."
Long Ze put his arm around Ruan Xiyue's waist: "Shouldn't you be with me tonight?"
Ruan Xiyue thought for a moment and then turned her head: "Then Xia Weier will listen to me tomorrow night, and Qin Ye will listen to me the day after tomorrow."
The two white dragon cubs, still diligently eating their eggshells, were glanced at by their father: "Oh, male cubs!" And that was the end of it.
Fortunately, Ruan Xiyue remembered the two little ones and fed them energy milk along with Long Ze before putting them into her portable childcare space.
While the atmosphere was harmonious on Ruan Xiyue's side, on the other side, the patrol team had successfully assessed the female of the Cheetah Tribe as a Holy Queen and brought back news to Beast City that the beastmen who failed to protect the Holy Queen had come to Beast City.
Qin's twin sister was very uneasy upon hearing this news. She kept asking who was in the group and when they would enter the Beast City.
When she heard that her long-lost sister was in the group, her heart skipped a beat.
By the time she learned the news, Ruan Xiyue and her group had already begun their journey into the Beast City.
Many orcs came to watch, as they had never seen a female who had just turned 16 and was able to bring more than a dozen of her own cubs into the city.
Everyone wanted to share in the joy.
Ruan Xiyue looked at the orc script written on the tall stone wall: Bright Moon City.
She knew that the fierce battle she had imagined a hundred times was about to begin!
