After I Dumped 7 Beast Husbands and Ran

”Lu Ming, I have a lot of other seeds. Let’s clear separate plots of land and plant one type of thing in each.”

”Alright!” Lu Ming’s eyes were bright, full of motivation.

She found a sickle in her space. She took the lead, cutting the grass with the sickle, while Lu Ming followed behind, tilling the soil.

She was much stronger than before, and her movements were swift and clean as she cut the grass.

”Should we set this grass aside to make compost?” Nan Zishi asked.

”Yeah.”

As Lu Ming worked, he secretly glanced at Nan Zishi, who was laboring not far from him.

’This is my mother. My smart, beautiful, kind, and hardworking mother.’

’Who could possibly understand what it’s like to have a mother who enjoys the exact same things you do?’

’Gardening with my mother is so much better than doing it all by myself!’

’She’s so, so much better than any other female I’ve ever met.’

’I love having a mother like her.’

The corners of the little cub’s mouth curled up.

Nan Zishi dug a pit in the ground. The two of them, one large and one small, worked together to bury the cut grass. Whatever didn’t fit was stacked in a pile and covered with a thin layer of dirt to compost.

By the time the two of them had skillfully cleared the land, the sun was about to set.

Nan Zishi took out the seeds, tore open their seals, and quickly began to sow them.

By the time they had finished everything, the sky had grown even darker.

This time, Nan Zishi saw much more clearly as Lu Ming infused the soil with his spiritual charm.

Green Spiritual Power. It was indeed a green-colored energy.

This little cub, Lu Ming, seemed to have an incredibly high affinity for plants. Not only that, but he also possessed a power that resembled Life Force.

This power could activate and stimulate the Life Force of plants, allowing them to survive and grow.

’This superpower is simply heaven-defying!’

This time, most of what Nan Zishi planted with Lu Ming were foods that were easy to store.

For example, peanuts, wheat, and corn. She also planted some rice near the ground spring.

In addition to those, she also scattered a few watermelon seeds and a single apple tree seed.

She didn’t have very high hopes for the apple tree. After all, it was a tree, so it wouldn’t grow as quickly as the other plants.

Still, she was very much looking forward to coming back tomorrow to see what this little valley garden would become.

This was the little garden she and Lu Ming had built with their own hands!

As for Lu Ming, Nan Zishi had to admit she’d found a real treasure. And this treasure had even come looking for her on its own!

”Come on, Lu Ming. Time to go home.” Nan Zishi smiled and held out her hand to him.

The little deer cub looked up, stared at her hand for two seconds, and then placed his small hand in her much larger one.

He gave it a gentle squeeze.

...

Not long after they left the valley, the two of them encountered Xuan Jin.

Beneath the moonlight, the tall and slender Xuan Snake Beastman was leaning quietly against a tree.

Silvery moonlight streamed through his dark hair. The corners of his devilishly charming phoenix eyes held a hint of leisurely intoxication, and a glint like crushed silver flickered on his lashes.

The moment he lifted his gaze, a small, black-haired head appeared before him. Her eyes were bright, and she was holding an ear of corn.

”Xuan Jin, how did you find your way here?”

He arched a sharp brow. The tips of his fingers, which had just been caressed by the breeze, gently touched her head, naturally shielding her from the night wind.

”Little female, I can always find you.”

The male’s powerful arm swept under the crook of her knees, lifting her up. Nan Zishi bumped against his solid chest, her mind going blank for a second.

Pressed against his chest, she could hear his strong, powerful heartbeat.

The male held her tight, his voice deep and magnetic. ”Let’s go home first.”

After he spoke, the dark figure vanished in a flash, taking her with him as he ran.

Lu Ming stared speechlessly at the Snake Beastman who had just run off with his female.

’Hey! There’s still a cub here, didn’t you see?!’

’Are adult males always showing off like this? Unbelievable.’

Lu Ming walked at a slow, unhurried pace, eventually arriving at the entrance to Nan Zishi’s cave.

Inside the cave, Nan Zishi was being forced to face Xuan Jin.

He lay beneath her, his arms clamped around her waist, forcing her to stay on top of him and look up at his face.

His beautiful, devilishly charming phoenix eyes were utterly alluring, and his smirking lips glistened.

’He was using every trick in the book to seduce her!’

’Tonight, we mate!’

’He! Was! Going! To! Mate! With! The! Little! Female!’

’Hu Bai isn’t here, Chi Xiao isn’t here, and neither is Lanxing! No one can stop me!’

The clever little cub standing at the cave entrance had been about to leave, but then he saw a stone near the opening. He picked it up and rushed inside, demanding, ”Did you dig this up?”

Nan Zishi kicked at Xuan Jin. The Xuan Snake male caught her small foot, then let her go.

”What is it now, you little cub?” the Xuan Snake Beastman asked, clearly annoyed.

Holding the stone that looked as if it were stained with blood, Lu Ming asked again, ”Did you dig this up?”

Nan Zishi studied the stone in Lu Ming’s hand. ”What kind of stone is this? It looks like it’s dripping blood.”

”It’s a Blood Stone,” Lu Ming said, his eyes darkening.

’He even knows about the Blood Stone.’ Xuan Jin rose from the bed, giving Lu Ming a look of new appraisal.

Xuan Jin explained to Nan Zishi, ”In the mining area, digging up a reddish Beast Crystal Stone can get your sentence reduced. If you find a Blood Stone, you can probably be released immediately, your full sentence served.”

Lu Ming said, ”You have to hide this. Put it in your space.”

”What exactly is it?” Nan Zishi was extremely curious.

Xuan Jin said, ”This is what the High Priest is truly trying to find in the mines. Rumor has it that it’s the blood of the Beast God.”

Lu Ming handed the Blood Stone to Nan Zishi, then turned and left the cave.

He sat outside, sullen.

Nan Zishi looked out of the cave, feeling that the little one had a heavy heart, which was worrying.

In the middle of the night, no one noticed that the energy from the Blood Stone in Nan Zishi’s Space Necklace was being quietly absorbed by her.

...

「It was a dark and windy night.」

In a corner of the East mining district, there was a place called the Punishment Cave, also known as the Cage Field.

This place was used to imprison and punish the Sin Beasts. Beastmen who had not completed their daily mining tasks were being subjected to whippings.

A Beastman prison guard inconspicuously entered the Cage Field and opened a cell.

Inside the cell, a grievously wounded and barely breathing Silver Wolf slowly lifted his blue eyes.

”Monkey Battle.”

The prison guard bent low, handing a fruit and a Beast Skin to Wolf Day. ”Lord Zhuo, eat this fruit, change into this Beast Skin, and come with me.”

”Wolf Ye is still in there.”

”Master Ye is being held too deep inside. We can’t save him yet. We have to wait for you to recover from your injuries before we can rescue him.”

After being given the fruit, Wolf Day ate it and his face began to swell up. Then, after he changed into the Beast Skin Skirt, his hair was smeared with ash to disguise him as a Gray Wolf Beastman.

Now, no one would be able to recognize him.

”Eat one of these fruits every three days. If you want to restore your original appearance, just stop eating them for three days and you will naturally recover.”

The Beast Skin hid the wounds covering his body. Monkey Battle led him to the section of the mining district for new Sin Beasts.

Hou Ting came over to take Wolf Day from him.

He looked Wolf Day up and down. As expected, even he couldn’t recognize him. ”Lord Zhuo, please follow me.”

Wolf Day recognized him at a glance. ”Hou Ting, thank you for your trouble.”

Ten Thousand Beasts City had just captured a new batch of Beastmen for mining, and over a hundred new Beast Prisoners were gathered here.

”It’s no trouble, my lord. Your new identity is Lang Ce, a Gray Wolf Beastman.”

”According to procedure, first thing tomorrow morning, Bao Fei will take everyone to meet the females in the mining district, giving the females a chance to choose a male.

We have already made an arrangement with a female Gray Wolf, Wolf Jade. Take this Beast Belt, and she will choose you tomorrow. Do not refuse her. Once you’re with her, we’ve arranged for a witch doctor to treat your injuries.”

Wolf Day pushed the Beast Belt away and shook his head. ”I can’t. I have a female master.”
