Chapter 267 Breaking the Balance
Chapter 267 Breaking the Balance
The rage in Ruan Xiyue's heart was like a flame that had been forcibly suppressed, surging in her chest.
She reached out and pinched Xia Weier's chin, her voice low but tinged with coldness as she questioned, "Is it fun? One minute you're flirting with me, the next you're deliberately changing the subject."
Seeing this, Xia Weier smiled slyly and put one arm around Ruan Xiyue's waist, pulling her closer to him. The distance between them instantly closed, and they could almost feel each other's breath.
He said softly, "When you teased me with that earring before, have you forgotten? You promised that you would never be angry if I paid you back a hundredfold or a thousandfold!"
"You lied to me." Xia Weier said, raising her eyebrows in a wronged manner. Her deep blue eyes looked pitifully at Ruan Xiyue, like an abandoned little animal, and her lips were slightly pouting.
His appearance, combined with his words, instantly silenced Ruan Xiyue's rebuttal, as if an invisible hand had blocked it, leaving it stuck in her throat.
She thought back carefully, and realized that she had indeed done something like that before, and had sincerely promised Xia Weier that she would never be angry no matter how much he repaid her...
But how could she have imagined that the promise she made back then would actually come true!
Ruan Xiyue was rendered speechless by Xia Weier's words. Feeling embarrassed and helpless, she could only kneel on his lap and silence his incessant chatter with her lips.
Long Ze, who was standing to the side, took in everything. He just looked at Xia Weier coldly without saying a word, then turned and walked to the sink to prepare dinner.
Just as Qin Ye was about to go to the kitchen with Long Ze to help, Ruan Xiyue suddenly pushed Xia Weier away. She was slightly out of breath and said to Qin Ye, "Ah Ye, you and Xia Weier take your medicine together before you come over."
After saying that, she took out a talent enhancement pill from her pocket and handed one to Xia Weier and one to Qin Ye. Then she gave each of them a high-grade energy pill.
Xia Weier looked at the pills in his hand, then at Ruan Xiyue, feigning a complaint, "You're trying to get rid of me! You're not keeping your word..."
Before Xia Weier could finish speaking, Ruan Xiyue reached out and covered his lips, scolding him playfully, "Even medicine can't shut you up!"
After a brief discussion, Xia Weier and Qin Ye decided that Xia Weier would stay in the downstairs changing room, while Qin Ye would go to his room upstairs.
Jiu Chen quietly assisted Long Ze in the kitchen, while Ruan Xi Yue went to the living room and played games with the cubs.
But before long, an argument broke out in the living room.
Long Ze sighed helplessly and said to Jiu Chen, "Why don't you go and try to persuade them and see what they're arguing about this time?"
Jiu Chen blinked helplessly, sighed, and replied, "Okay."
As Jiu Chen entered the living room, he saw Ruan Xiyue pressing the little cubs onto the carpet, using them as her own pillows, while she herself was holding other little cubs, constantly rubbing their little faces and paws with her hands.
As soon as the cubs saw Jiu Chen enter, they immediately felt like they had found a protector and started crying and complaining.
Seeing this, Ruan Xiyue instantly transformed into an iron-eating beast, leaving Jiu Chen with only a round, chubby bottom.
Seeing this, Jiu Chen was both amused and exasperated. He could only comfort the cub first before continuing to help Long Ze cook in the kitchen.
Ruan Xiyue thought that since Xia Weier hadn't advanced in rank, the bloodline purification process should be completed soon.
Unexpectedly, Xia Weier still hadn't come out of the changing room when it was time for bed.
Ruan Xiyue couldn't help but feel puzzled, and couldn't help but ask Duoduo in her mind: [What's wrong with Xia Weier? It's normal for the other beastmen to have a long transformation process after taking the pill for the second time, but his transformation process feels a bit off, doesn't it?]
Before Duoduo could answer, Ruan Xiyue suddenly felt a tremendous pressure coming from the changing room. The pressure was like a surging tide, rushing towards her, making her heart tighten and feel extremely apprehensive.
Long Ze sensed something was wrong and instantly appeared in front of Ruan Xiyue, releasing his own pressure to resist Xia Weier's sudden energy outburst.
The orcs living nearby also felt the golden-rank pressure belonging to Xia Weier, and they couldn't help but transform into beast forms, letting out roars one after another.
Ruan Xiyue frowned, asking herself again in her mind: "[Duoduo, is Xia Weier acting normally?]"
Duoduo quickly replied: "[It's normal. There's a balance being broken and reorganized within his bloodline power. It'll be fine in a moment.]"
At this moment, Jiu Chen couldn't help but whisper, "Yue'er! The cubs... might not be able to take it!"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Xiyue hurriedly ran to the living room and put all the cubs into her personal childcare space.
Her consciousness then entered the portable amusement park, where she saw the cubs trembling with fear.
"Mother, is Father Xiaweier angry?" a child asked, his voice trembling with tears.
Ruan Xiyue quickly explained, "No, it's not that. Your father, Xia Weier, is feeling a bit unwell right now, so he couldn't control his powers. Don't be afraid."
The six-tailed fox spirit Ruan An'an looked worriedly at her brothers and sisters who were trembling with fear around her, and said to Ruan Xiyue in a childish voice, "Mother, should I go out and help Father?"
Ruan Xiyue gently patted Ruan An'an's head and coaxed her tenderly, "Don't worry, it'll be fine in a little while! Mother can't let you go out yet, I'm sorry."
Ruan An'an shook her head sensibly, snuggled into Ruan Xiyue's arms, nuzzled her head against her, and said, "Mother, let's go out when we can. I'm just too worried about Father."
Ruan Xiyue sighed inwardly, a wave of guilt washing over her.
If she weren't afraid that the old beast king would snatch away some of the cubs, how could she bear to let Ruan An'an and the others not see Xia Wei'er for so long?
Fortunately, apart from the cubs with ancestral bloodlines, the Beast King didn't even notice the other Moon Rabbit cubs!
Otherwise, she would have to rack her brains to protect the other Moon Rabbit cubs as well!
Ugh--
Just as Ruan Xiyue was lost in thought, Xia Weier withdrew his golden-level aura.
Ruan Xiyue's consciousness left the portable childcare center, and then she heard Xia Weier's low growl coming from the changing room.
She couldn't help but ask Duoduo again: "What exactly happened? His voice sounds like it's in so much pain!"
Duo Duo couldn't resist using its seemingly dim-witted black cat skin in Ruan Xiyue's mind, saying: "Dear host, removing impurities from the bloodline is inherently painful! But the pain will pass!"
After confirming with Duoduo several times that she was not in any danger, Ruan Xiyue finally relaxed and fell asleep limply in Long Ze's warm embrace.
Long Ze frowned slightly, wondering why Ruan Xiyue seemed to be getting lighter despite eating so much every day.
Moreover, Ruan Xiyue is much more sleepy than she was during her previous pregnancies!
Long Ze frowned and looked at Jiu Chen: "Do you think we should find her two or three more reliable beast husbands once we get busy?"
