Done Breeding: Now I Rule the Beastworld

The old man had gone to take care of business, and Chu Liangyu hesitated, wondering if she should follow him.

Everyone in that place was a Guardian; it would be rather inappropriate for her to go.

Tu Bai: Do you need him for something?

Tu Bai’s inquiry was remarkably natural, like someone asking a child who was looking for their parents.

And just like that, the worries in Chu Liangyu’s heart were dispelled.

"Yes, I need to get something from him."

An invisible hand lifted her up, and simultaneously, a spatial tunnel appeared before Chu Liangyu’s eyes.

Tu Bai: I can’t send you there directly, but I can teleport you to the border of the Thundercloud Area.

"Thank you."

If she wanted to tear through space to find the old man, she first had to leave the confines of Void Island.

Otherwise, repeatedly tearing space would cause damage, destabilizing the area and causing Void Island’s position to shift.

Tu Bai’s action saved her travel time on the return trip, but there was still one more thing she had to do.

"Could you please create a temporary tunnel for me to White Sparrow Forest? I’m looking for someone."

Tu Bai: Understood.

Exiting the spatial tunnel, Chu Liangyu arrived at the spot where she had left that night.

Unsurprisingly, there were no longer any signs that someone had been living there.

Chu Liangyu was just trying her luck, so she wasn’t surprised not to see anyone.

She turned and stepped back into the spatial tunnel. ’As for the matter of the grass carp, if we’re fated to meet again, it won’t be too late to give it to him then.’

Spatial folding could shorten the journey, but Tu Bai’s power was limited; he couldn’t just ignore the thunderclouds and send her straight outside.

Getting out depended on her, which meant she was about to get struck by lightning again.

She had just stepped one foot out of the spatial tunnel when a bolt of Thunder landed right beside it. If she hadn’t reacted quickly enough, she would already be smoking.

Having learned her lesson from last time, Chu Liangyu wasn’t about to let the Thunder strike her again.

A protective shield formed from her trident enveloped her entire body. Ignoring the dense bolts of Thunder all around her, she charged toward the edge of the thunderclouds.

At her speed, breaking through should have been no problem, but at that moment, a crack appeared on her trident.

Not only did she fail to break through, but she slammed right into a barrier made of layered Thunder, and the hairline crack on her trident widened.

One could only imagine the power of the Thunder if it could shatter the trident’s defense.

If she had charged out recklessly, her body would have been turned into a human-shaped piece of charcoal before she ever saw the world outside.

Chu Liangyu couldn’t understand why the Thunder suddenly hated outsiders so fiercely.

She wasn’t getting out anytime soon. To prevent the crack in her trident from worsening, she could only retreat from the Thundercloud Area for now.

But things were never that simple. Even though she had temporarily given up on getting out, the Thunder kept chasing her like a pack of mad dogs.

It was as if it wouldn’t be satisfied until it had blasted her to smithereens.

"HISS... Go after whoever pissed you off! Why do you insist on chasing me?"

Her words seemed to strike a nerve. The barrage of Thunder chasing her faltered for a split second.

Seizing the opportunity, Chu Liangyu put more distance between them, accelerating toward Void Island.

In a situation like this, only Tu Bai could help block the relentless Thunder.

Sighing, Chu Liangyu felt an indescribable frustration. ’In the end, it’s because I’m not strong enough.’

’Once I’m done with this, I need to focus on getting stronger.’

"Are all females this cunning? Tricking someone into being her free ride... That’s despicable!"

"I bet that whole story about bringing you grass carp as compensation was a lie, too. Just empty words."

Qu Jing chattered on, but he was constantly watching his friend’s expression.

"Alright, it’s not like she did anything to me. I’ll just chalk it up to a recreational outing."

"That may be so, but you need to be more careful from now on. Don’t just believe everything people tell you."

He Yushu froze as he heard those familiar words. An image of the woman’s faint smile as she said something similar flashed before his eyes.

Back then, he’d always felt she had many secrets, that even her smile wasn’t entirely genuine.

But her calm composure and the confidence that radiated from her very being were incredibly attractive to him.

Beyond that, he always felt a sense of familiarity from Chu Liangyu.

But for the life of him, he couldn’t put his finger on what felt so familiar.

"Get out of the way! Move!"

He Yushu, lost in thought, was jolted by the voice. In a daze, he seemed to see a familiar, pale green figure.

"Chu—"

A blast of wind rushed into his mouth, choking off the rest of his word.

How could Chu Liangyu have known there were other Beastmen in mid-air? With no time to slow down, she crashed right into someone.

Trying to escape the Thunder behind her, Chu Liangyu naturally didn’t dare to stop. But when she saw the person she’d hit plummeting downward, she reflexively grabbed one of his wings and desperately flew onward, dragging him along.

"What’s happened that has you in such a hurry?"

He Yushu had a stomach full of questions for her, especially about the fact that she could fly.

She could clearly fly, yet she’d tricked him into being her free ride home. He found it very strange.

Also, when they first met, he had clearly seen her fishtail. She should be a Beastman of the Merfolk Clan.

Hearing the familiar voice, Chu Liangyu finally realized she had just crashed into He Yushu.

"Can’t you see the Thunder chasing me back there? If I don’t run, I’m a goner!"

Chu Liangyu felt exasperated that he would ask something so obvious. She was tempted to just let him go; he had wings, after all, so he certainly wouldn’t fall to his death.

"Thunder? Where? I don’t see any."

Chu Liangyu frowned, feeling that something was odd. She glanced back. "It’s right... behind us."

The crackling Thunder was gone, leaving only a clear and tranquil sky. The scene of being chased and struck at just a moment ago felt like it had all been an illusion.

’It’s really gone.’

Chu Liangyu suddenly felt something was strange. ’It was just chasing me relentlessly. Why would it suddenly stop?’

As she was lost in thought, her grip loosened. He Yushu broke free and flapped his wings to hover level with her.

"You can fly, can’t you? So why did you deceive me?"

Chu Liangyu suddenly recalled the first time she was struck by Thunder and fell into the water. Back then, too, the Thunder had stopped chasing her after she met He Yushu. ’Perhaps he’s the key to getting out of here.’

’I just tricked this silly bird. He probably won’t believe a word I say now.’

Coughing, Chu Liangyu skillfully dodged the question. "I didn’t deceive you. Didn’t I say I’d compensate you for your care these past few days with grass carp? Look, what are these?"

"I went back just to get these. But I couldn’t find you, so I had to go back to where we first met to look for you."

"But before I could find you, I ended up getting chased by the Thunder. I just don’t know why it’s gone now."

He Yushu stared at her intently, not saying a word for a long time. It was impossible to tell how much of her story he believed.
