Chapter 63: The Relationship Between Xichong and Xihang
The Relationship Between Xichong and Xihang
In the morning, Chaosheng checked the time, estimating that Baini would be waking up soon.
She then went to hunt for Baini with Yinxu.
She did not know how long this state of Baini's would last.
Chaosheng really could not figure out the reason why Baini loved to sleep now, and could only guess that after Baini was poisoned last time, his body suffered too much damage and could only rely on this method to recover.
"We didn't go looking for you, yet you came looking for us instead!"
An unpleasant voice came from behind, and Xichong's gaze, condensed with fury, struck Chaosheng like the sharpest blade.
Chaosheng turned around and discovered it was old acquaintances.
Rusui and Xichong.
Xichong lifted his chin high, his expression as disdainful as ever.
Rusui's complexion was listless, and her eyes, which were once full of spirit, were now dull.
"What is it?" Chaosheng chuckled, the meaning in her eyes unclear, "Do you not like the gift I gave you?"
"You..."
Xichong's face was gloomy as he looked at Chaosheng with rage, wishing he could step forward and tear this lowly female apart.
"What about me?"
Chaosheng coquettishly raised an eyebrow, her beautiful and gorgeous face gaining a bit of liveliness.
Yinxu stood half a step behind Chaosheng in a protective posture, his cold, sharp gaze landing on them as a warning.
"You..." Xichong was so angry that his body swayed unsteadily, a surge of heat rushing straight to his head, and he shouted, "Damn it!"
"How did you know the location of the Sea Spirit Ginseng?"
"You actually dared to tell others?!"
Upon hearing this, Chaosheng gave a light sneer, a glimmer of cold light in her indifferent eyes, "What? Did you grow this Sea Spirit Ginseng yourselves?"
"You merely claimed the title of discovering it first."
"Since the Sea Spirit Ginseng grew in the rift valley on its own, it belongs to everyone. What is wrong with me telling everyone?"
"You... you..." Xichong was so angry his face turned red; he had never seen such a shameless female, "The Sea Spirit Ginseng was discovered by our Whale Shark Tribe, so it is ours!"
"Don't think that just because you've latched onto one Fifth-tier Beastman and one Sixth-tier that you're something special."
"I'm telling you, our Whale Shark Tribe already has a Fifth-tier Beastman."
"I will also advance to the Fifth Rank soon, so you just wait!"
"Do you really think that by relying on those two, you can run amok in the Polar Sea?"
Rusui pulled at Xichong with a dark expression, trying to hold back Xichong, who was getting carried away with his threats, and whispered a reminder, "Stop talking, Achong."
"What are you afraid of?!" Xichong looked at Chaosheng arrogantly, "Could it be that she would dare to kill me today?!"
He was certain that this vicious female did not have the guts.
Just like Baini, timid and fearful of trouble.
"Ha!" Chaosheng could not help but laugh, a triumphant smile spreading across her eyes and brows, "Who told you Baini is a Fifth-tier Beastman?"
"Your information is too outdated."
"Baini has long been a Sixth-tier Beastman."
"What?!" Xichong's expression went blank with shock, and his body could not help but retreat two steps, "How is that possible?"
"He only reached adulthood not long ago, and he's already a Sixth-tier Beastman?!"
Could it be that he really is a genius?!
One must know that this kind of talent and potential has already surpassed Yinxu, who is publicly acknowledged as the strongest.
Xichong looked at Chaosheng with hatred and annoyance, stubbornly saying, "Impossible!"
"You must be lying to me!"
"Didn't Baini just get poisoned? It would be good enough if his abilities didn't regress; how could he possibly advance?"
Yes, this must be something this vicious female made up. Could she really have such good fortune? The only two Sixth-tier Beastmen in the Polar Sea are both her Beast Husbands?!
Is that possible?
What a joke.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Chaosheng smiled indifferently, her gaze clear and calm, "Then I look forward to the day you advance to the Fifth Rank and go challenge Baini."
"You..." Xichong pointed at Chaosheng with resentment, his expression sinister, "Just you wait."
"Xichong..."
Rusui's expression was dejected, but she did not know how to advise her Beast Husband.
Her features were originally mediocre, and after being worn down these past few days, the last bit of spirit was gone, and the dazzling light in her eyes had vanished.
She had severed ties with the Mad Shark Tribe for Xichong, choosing to marry into the Whale Shark Tribe so that Xichong could become the chief of the Whale Shark Tribe.
Xichong had an impulsive and irritable personality, and taking over the Whale Shark Tribe had not gone smoothly.
Not to mention there was also Xihang, who did not get along with Xichong.
Xihang had been adopted by the former chief as a foster son in his youth, and Xichong used to lead beastmen to bully the ugly and unsociable Xihang.
Later, Xihang became Xizhi's Beast Husband, and Xichong, thinking Xihang was ugly and unworthy of his sister, kept scouring for handsome male beastmen for Xizhi.
Now that Xizhi was dead, the buffer between Xichong and Xihang was gone, and now they just kept sabotaging each other.
Xichong resented Xihang for being useless and failing to protect Xizhi, causing her to die in vain.
Xihang hated Xichong for giving Xizhi bad advice, causing him to be unconscious for those few days so that Xizhi could go to the War Shark Tribe to marry a new Beast Husband.
Rusui considered herself clever, but she could not reconcile the hatred between these two male beastmen.
She had watched the Whale Shark Tribe go from bad to worse these past few days, yet she was powerless to do anything.
A vine from who knows where struck Xichong's raised hand, leaving a deep red mark.
"Snap!"
"Ah!"
Xichong clutched his arm in agony, his face pale as paper, and he doubled over, crying out in pain without regard for his image.
That vine had barbs on it!
Yinxu closed his eyes indifferently, his tone cold and laced with a warning, "If you don't want this arm, I can help you discard it!"
"Xichong, Xichong!" Rusui paced around anxiously, but concern could not solve the problem at this moment; she wanted to check Xichong's injury, but was shoved to the ground by Xichong, who had lost his reason to pain.
Rusui glared at Yinxu with hatred, "Why did you take action?"
"Even if Xichong's words were offensive, he never truly hurt any of you."
"Chaosheng, you once killed my sister, and now you indulge your Beast Husband in harming Achong!"
The emotions suppressed in her heart for days could no longer be contained, and now, desperate to vent them all at once, Rusui screamed at Chaosheng in a breakdown, "Chaosheng, do you really think you can keep being this smug forever?"
Chaosheng chuckled, as if she had heard a joke, "Haha!"
"In this world, capable Beastmen are allowed to run rampant."
"If you had the upper hand in strength today, I fear I would be in a much more miserable state than your Beast Husband."
"Since your strength is insufficient, you should live timidly, yet you insist on saying things that provoke Yinxu; who can you blame for this?"
"Furthermore..." Chaosheng paused, cold light flickering in her purple eyes, her voice as cold and hard as ice, resonant and forceful, "In order to profit from Sea Spirit Ginseng, your Whale Shark Tribe disregards the lives of other Beastmen."
"How many Beastmen have you caused to die in the Black Rift Valley?"
"Yet you have never felt any guilt for this; today, Yinxu merely lashed him with a grass whip, and you feel indignant?"
