Chapter 100: Qiqi

~7 min read 1,300 words

Qiqi

"What?"

Chaosheng was stunned for a moment in surprise; Wushi was dead?

"Yes." The Black Butterfly Shell Beastman hung his head, nodded twice, and said with a hint of sympathy in his voice, "He was beaten to death by Qiqi."

"Sigh! Ever since Qiqi took those two Beastmen as mates, she would beat and scold Wushi every single day."

"Then, one time when Wushi was sick, Qiqi insisted he go hunting. Wushi didn't catch anything, and then Qiqi beat Wushi to death."

Chaosheng listened with a furrowed brow the entire time, her mind vaguely conjuring the image of that Black Butterfly Shell Female kneeling at the cave entrance, begging her to save Wushi.

She had thought that even if this female's character wasn't very good, at least her heart for Wushi was real.

She hadn't expected...

Chaosheng regained her focus slightly and said to this Beastman, "Qiqi is Wushi's Mate, right?"

"Then go call her out!"

"Yes, yes, alright."

The Black Butterfly Shell Beastman nodded, hurriedly backed away, and let out a long breath in his heart; he was finally able to leave.

"These females are too vicious!"

Changye stomped his feet in anger, his deep black eyes filled with fire; these females really didn't treat the lives of Male Beastmen as lives!

A trace of sorrow flashed through Yinxu's dark brown eyes, and he mused, "Nowadays, the unions between females and males are mostly for the sake of those few benefits."

"Males do it to follow the crowd, to have a Mate, and to have a chance to possess their own offspring."

"Females do it to obtain the males' abilities and strengthen themselves."

"Their union is not because of love, but merely for their own desires."

"When a female has a better choice, her previous Beast Husbands are no longer important to her."

This was also why he had dragged it out for two years after reaching adulthood before being willing to marry Sheng.

At least at that moment, he was certain that he had feelings for Sheng.

If not for that, he would rather die in a Spiritual Sea Riot than ever be willing to surrender himself to such great uncertainty.

Baini pursed his lips, a hint of killing intent flashing in his pitch-black eyes, "The nature of some females is just like this."

"If it weren't for the fact that there are few females and many males, the bloodline of such vile females should never have been born!"

Tuyi, being held by Baini, nodded along upon hearing this; that's right, that's right, some females are rotten to the core.

Chaosheng parted her lips, somewhat not knowing what to say.

For the males of this world, there was simply no chance to regret marrying the wrong person.

Just like Baini's older brother, even when beaten to the point of being on the verge of death, he still had to speak well of Huyang and brainwash himself into continuing to live with Huyang.

"Ha~"

"Who is it? Who is looking for me?"

A string of bubbles rose up, and a listless Black Butterfly Shell Female dragged her heavy footsteps out.

Chaosheng steadied herself, a bit unable to believe that this Female Beastman was the same emaciated female from before.

Although the female was still thin now, she was undoubtedly much more bloated; her hair hung loosely on both sides, covering most of her face.

Her figure was hunched, her steps were unsteady, and she was currently yawning slowly.

Chaosheng cast a probing gaze upon her, "Are you Qiqi?"

"Wushi's Mate?"

"Yes, who are you..." Qiqi wiped the hair from her face, revealing a pair of puffy eyes.

When she saw the appearance of the female before her, she immediately widened her eyes, "You... you are?"

She blinked rapidly with a guilty conscience, her gaze falling on the little cubs being held by the three Male Beastmen, and she swallowed her saliva in fear, her voice trembling, "It's you, you... what do you want to do?"

Chaosheng tilted her head, a half-smile hanging on the corner of her mouth, "I'm not doing anything."

"It's just that there are some things I want to ask you about in person."

"You've seen these three little Beastmen, right?"

"They claim that it was you who instigated them to steal my things."

"!" It's over, Qiqi exclaimed in her heart; she suppressed the thumping sound of her heartbeat and shouted loudly in pretense, "I didn't!"

Then she glared viciously at the three hateful little cubs, "They are lying!"

Upon hearing this, Tuyi raised his head abruptly and looked at her angrily, "We are the ones who are telling the truth!"

"It was you who told us there was a place full of pearls and gems."

"You even said that if we could get those treasures, you would be willing to trade them for food for us."

"That's why we..."

Tuyi looked at Chaosheng with guilt, biting his lip hard; he was clear-headed now.

How could there be such an easy thing?

If it were really that easy to steal, why didn't she go steal it herself?

"You're talking nonsense!" Qiqi rolled her eyes hard, completely panicked; how had this little cub not been beaten to death by that female's Beast Husbands?!

"Is there some kind of misunderstanding here?"

An elderly Black Butterfly Shell Female walked out; she was tall and thin, but her brows and eyes were gentle and kind, and she looked like a female with a good temperament.

"You are!" Chaosheng looked at this strange female in confusion.

The elderly Black Butterfly Shell Female smiled politely and introduced herself, "My name is Heixi, and I am the Leader of the Black Butterfly Tribe."

"This... is there some kind of misunderstanding between you all?"

As soon as Qiqi saw the Leader had come to save her, and that the Leader's devoted Beast Husbands were following behind, she hurried over, "Lumi, Qicong!"

"Quick, save me!"

She grabbed the hands of two Male Beastmen, hid behind Heixi, and kept her head lowered tightly, not daring to look at Chaosheng at all.

"A misunderstanding?" Chaosheng chuckled, "I don't think there is any misunderstanding."

"I have known this female from your Tribe for a long time."

"At that time, her Beast Husband Wushi was suffering from a Spiritual Sea Riot, and hearing that I was willing to treat Beastmen for free, she cried and begged me to go save Wushi."

"I had met Wushi once before, so I agreed at the time."

"Who would have thought that this female would be completely ungrateful and instead speak to me with such unbridled arrogance."

"I originally intended to inflict a slight punishment to teach her a lesson, but it was her Beast Husband who pleaded for her."

"That..." After hearing this, a trace of embarrassment crossed Heixi's face, but she still said, "Qiqi speaking rudely to you is indeed her fault."

"But you helped her and saved Wushi; even if she wasn't grateful, how could she harm you?"

A mocking arc curled at the corners of Chaosheng's mouth as she spoke in a cold tone, "Leader Heixi, don't jump to conclusions too quickly."

"When I saved Wushi, I used a type of white flower called the Yusheng Flower, and she saw it."

"Later, Xizhi heard about me saving Wushi and tried every possible way to find out how I had done it."

"And she..." Chaosheng turned her head and looked coldly in the direction of Qiqi, who was hiding behind, her pleasant voice carrying an obvious chill, "She told Xizhi the location of the Yusheng Flower."

"This isn't the first time she has repaid kindness with enmity."

Hearing this, Heixi's face became a bit more serious; she turned around and looked at Qiqi earnestly, asking, "Is it true?"
