Chapter 166 - 163: Huo Jun and She Yang Recover

’This home is much more comfortable than I imagined.’

Little Lu Ming’s small tail wagged back and forth behind him.

Lu Ming asked, "Big Brother, do you want to see?"

Huo Jun: "Of course, I do. But I’ve seen so many witch doctors since I was little. None of them could heal my eyes."

Lu Ming asked tentatively, "If I said I could, would you let me try?"

Huo Jun looked up in surprise. "Are you serious?"

"Yes."

"Then of course you can."

Lu Ming asked, "You trust me? We’ve only just met."

"What’s there to question? No matter what, you’re my little brother."

Lu Ming stared at Huo Jun for a moment, then finally smiled. "Okay."

Lu Ming jumped down from his seat and walked over to his brothers and sisters.

"Little brothers and sisters, I have two things to tell you, but I need you to help me keep them a secret."

Several of his younger siblings said in unison, "Okay!"

"Brother Lu Ming, just say what you want to say. I promise to keep it a secret!"

"Yeah, yeah, me too!"

"Bwother, Fufu secwet~"

Lu Ming couldn’t help but laugh.

He said in a small voice, "I’ll tell you guys. In six days, Mother is going to Earth to see our grandparents and uncle."

The cubs were astonished. "Grandparents?" "Uncle?"

"We have grandparents and an uncle?" Wolf Mu asked, bewildered.

Lang Xian knocked him on the head. "Dummy, how could we have a mother without grandparents?"

Lu Ming said, "Grandma and Grandpa are in a very, very faraway place, on another star. Like the ones you see when you look up."

"Is Mother leaving?"

"Can we go with her?"

"I want to go!" "Me too!"

"Fufu~" "HISS HISS~"

Lu Ming said, "I’m telling you this in secret, but you absolutely cannot tell the adults. Otherwise, they’ll definitely get jealous."

"Everyone’s beast fathers have energy that’s too strong; I can’t take them right now. But our energy as cubs is gentle. I can take all of you to see Grandma and Grandpa."

"Whoa!" The cubs cheered softly, keeping their voices down.

"I want to prepare gifts for Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle!"

"Me too, me too!"

Lu Ming said, "There’s a second thing."

Fox Qi: "What is it?"

"I’m going to treat Huo Jun and Yang’er. After the treatment, Huo Jun’s eyes will be healed, and Yang’er will be able to transform into his human form. Little brother Yang’er, are you willing to trust me?"

She Yang’s large eyes curved into crescents. He tilted his head and smiled, "HISS HISS~" *I’m willing.*

After receiving a response of complete trust from his brothers and sisters, Lu Ming lowered his head slightly.

’All these years, I’ve told so many lies and done so many bad things.’

’But I never expected that after coming home, I could still receive my family’s wholehearted trust.’

"You fools," Lu Ming murmured softly. "Trusting people so easily, you’re bound to get tricked one day."

Huo Jun’s small hand patted Lu Ming’s shoulder.

Fox Qi and Lang Xian also patted his shoulder.

Wolf Mu looked a little dazed, but he still stepped forward and took his hand.

Fufu waved at him, shouting, "Bwother~"

Yang’er leaped onto the top of his head and coiled up.

"Lu Ming," Huo Jun said softly, "The cubs of the family should be united."

Lu Ming choked out, "Yeah."

’It’s so warm.’

’Father. It’s so good to have a home.’

...

Lu Ming held a dried, scorched twig. "Big Brother and Little Seven, lean against the tree trunk."

"Okay."

Huo Jun sat leaning against the tree trunk, while Yang’er was coiled on the ground beside the tree.

Two adorable little deer antlers sprouted from Lu Ming’s head.

Fufu found it incredibly cute. "Wow! Wow!"

Lu Ming pressed the scorched twig against Huo Jun’s head. A green power was channeled through the twig, and a powerful Life Force slowly converged on Huo Jun’s body, concentrating on his eyes.

The energy consumption was a bit high, and Lu Ming felt a little tired.

Mustering his strength, he once again pressed the scorched twig against Yang’er’s body. The green power channeled through the twig, and a powerful Life Force was slowly sent throughout She Yang’s entire body, repairing the damage within.

After transferring the energy, Lu Ming’s own was depleted. He staggered twice, and Little Fox Qi caught him.

"Brother Lu Ming, are you okay?"

"I’m fine."

Before long, Yang’er’s body began to change. He smoothly grew arms and legs, and his head transformed into that of an adorable little cub.

He wasn’t wearing any Beast Skin, appearing before his siblings fair-skinned and tender.

He was a boy with short, aqua-blue hair and skin as fair as milk. His eyes looked a lot like his beast father, Xuan Jin’s, but they were a clean and clear aqua-blue.

Wolf Mu ran over. "Little brother Yang’er, you’re so cute!"

Little Yang’er immediately grew shy and covered his body. "Beast Skin Skirt..."

Suddenly, he clapped a hand over his mouth.

’Did I just speak?’

’I think I just spoke! I really spoke!’

Fox Qi said in pleasant surprise, "Little brother Yang’er! You can speak now!"

"That’s right, Yang’er, you spoke!"

"Yeah!" She Yang was ecstatic.

Fox Qi found a large piece of Beast Skin for She Yang.

Yang’er said thanks and quickly wrapped it around himself.

"I turned human!" Yang’er started running on his little feet. "I turned human!! Haha!"

"Brother Huo Jun, Brother Fox Qi, Sister Fufu, Brother Lang Xian, Brother Wolf Mu! I turned human!!!"

"Where’s Mother? I really want to tell Mother! When is Mother coming back!"

Fox Qi said, "I’m not sure. It seems like Mother was taken away by Father Xuan Jin."

"Huh?"

Just then, Huo Jun untied the feather covering his eyes. The vision at night was unclear, but it didn’t have much of an effect on Beastmen.

Huo Jun slowly opened his eyes.

His brothers and sisters all stared at Huo Jun. He took a moment to adjust, his eyes still a little dry.

He blinked, closed his eyes, and then opened them again.

They were the beautiful, fiery red eyes of the Fire Red Eagle tribe!

"Big Brother!"

He saw the handsome little brother with two cute little horns on his head and curled his lips into a smile. "You’re Lu Ming?"

Lu Ming’s eyes lit up, and he nodded.

Next, he saw the soft and adorable-looking Fox Qi. "Fox Qi?"

Fox Qi smiled. "Big Brother, you can see!"

Huo Jun identified them one by one.

"Little sister Fufu, little brother Lang Xian, little brother Wolf Mu, and this one..."

Huo Jun looked at Yang’er, who was still getting used to his own little hands and feet. "Little brother Yang’er?"

"Big Brother!" "Brother Huo Jun!" "Brother!"

Little Fu jumped up, splashing water everywhere. "Bwother!"

The cubs all crowded around him.

"This is great!" Fox Qi said. "Brother Huo Jun’s eyes are healed, and Yang’er can turn into his human form! This is really great! It’s all thanks to Brother Lu Ming!"

Lu Ming put the twig away and said, "It’s because you all trusted me."

"Of course, we trust you." Huo Jun clapped Lu Ming on the shoulder. "You’re our good brother."

"That’s right, we’re good brothers!" Yang’er also said.

...

The place Xuan Jin had chosen for mating wasn’t far, after all, and a Silver Wolf’s nose was the most sensitive.

The brothers Wolf Day and Wolf Night were the first to smell the sickly sweet scent of a female mating.

The two brothers shot to their feet.

Wolf Day’s eyes turned red. He took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down, and walked toward Nan Zishi.

Seeing this, Wolf Ye followed him.

"You stinky snake, Xiao Nan’s body is very delicate. You better not hurt her!"

Next, Hu Bai, Chi Xiao, and Lanxing also caught the scent in the air.

Chi Xiao got up to go over, but Hu Bai stopped him. "Having the two brothers, Wolf Day and Wolf Night, standing guard is enough."

In the Beast World, if the place where a female mated with a male from her family wasn’t safe enough, the other males did indeed have a duty to stand guard.

But... for the males of this family, wasn’t standing guard also a form of torture?

Hu Bai walked toward the Oasis’s small lake, entering it bit by bit and letting the ice-cold water cover him.

The female master mating with the Beast Husbands in the family was something that would happen often from now on.

’I have to control myself. I can’t give in to the jealousy in my heart. I need to be calm.’

’Besides, the female master agreeing to mate means she has truly decided to stay in the Beast World.’

"Female master... Nan Zishi..." Hu Bai submerged his head in the water.

’If she’s let down her guard, will a struggle over mating break out in the family next?’

’No... there are only a few days left.’

’I can’t lose my composure. I still have to follow the plan I came up with. For the remaining few days, we’ll each take turns going on dates with the female master. The priority is to find a way to make her heart stay here for good.’

’After she returns from her hometown, that’s when the real family struggle for mating will begin.’
