Done Breeding: Now I Rule the Beastworld

Chapter 29 - 28: Oh, Maybe It Doesn’t Like You

"Wait!"

"Female Master, I can give you my Life Phosphorus!"

Life Phosphorus could be used to control a Mermaid. As long as someone possessed it, the Mermaid could never harm the holder and had to obey their commands.

Furthermore, a Mermaid who had lost their Life Phosphorus could not be away from its holder for more than a month.

Otherwise, they would rapidly lose their vitality until they became a dried-up husk of a Mermaid.

Feng Qiwu wasn’t wrong to shout that. Wasn’t this just like becoming a salted fish?

A Life Phosphorus was only effective if given willingly by the Mermaid; otherwise, it was just an ordinary fish scale.

But Chu Liangyu wasn’t interested. After all, killing him would also eliminate any threat he might pose.

The number of wounds on Yu He’s body continued to increase, the pain twisting his features into a ferocious mask.

’Looks like I have no choice but to offer that thing,’ Yu He thought, then shouted again, "I’ll give you the trident, too!"

Chu Liangyu’s gaze flickered. She hadn’t expected him to possess such an item.

Feng Qiwu’s final claw swipe descended, and it looked like Yu He was about to breathe his last.

Chu Liangyu quickly threw her short blade to block the blow, saying at the same time, "Leave him alive."

The trident was a magnificent treasure. It could command the power of the ocean, summoning tsunamis and the like.

Moreover, as long as there was water nearby, its wielder could command it.

This was the ultimate treasure of the Merfolk Clan!

’Wait a minute, if that’s the case...’

"Why aren’t you using the trident?"

Chu Liangyu had just realized that even now, on the verge of death, Yu He still hadn’t used the trident.

’Could he be trying to trick me?’

"We only guard the trident. We can’t use it."

"Then are you serious about giving it to me?"

In response to Chu Liangyu’s doubt, Yu He proved it with his actions.

The trident, it turned out, was simply tucked into his hair like an ornament.

Once in his hand, it grew to its normal size. Yu He endured the pain and plucked off a scale, handing it to Chu Liangyu along with the trident.

She wasn’t interested in the Life Phosphorus and casually tucked it into her sleeve.

The trident, however, was another story. Chu Liangyu took it and swung it around a couple of times with great interest.

Vaguely, Chu Liangyu felt a sense of familiarity.

Just as she was thinking this, the trident transformed into a stream of light and wrapped itself around her left wrist.

A moment later, the light faded, revealing a bracelet engraved with seahorses on her wrist.

The seahorses were perfectly sized, and the links were shaped like seaweed, adorned with a few pearls and shells.

As for the color, it remained the original color of the trident, unchanged.

"This... how is this possible!"

Ever since his Merfolk Clan began guarding the trident, it had never shown such initiative toward anyone.

"What’s wrong?" Chu Liangyu asked, her tone puzzled as she looked up from the "bracelet."

"It’s never been this enthusiastic with me."

In truth, the trident simply couldn’t be bothered with them.

Yu He had tried countless ways to tame the trident, but none had succeeded. Instead, he’d gotten a beating from the ill-tempered artifact.

That’s right—the trident was sentient. It could understand speech and had a temper of its own.

Back then, his Beast Father and Beast Mother had comforted him, saying that was just how the trident was.

"Oh. Maybe it just doesn’t like you."

"Female Master, are you really letting him go just like that?"

If not for his fear of getting in Chu Liangyu’s way, Feng Qiwu would have lost his patience long ago.

Chu Liangyu glanced at him. "What else? Or would you rather I go back on my word?"

"Fine, then. I’ll listen to you."

Feng Qiwu felt a bit strange. He wasn’t the type to accommodate others. In a situation like this, this shouldn’t have been his reaction.

After a moment’s thought, Chu Liangyu asked, "Are you here to rescue me?"

"Yeah."

"Just you?"

Feng Qiwu hesitated for a moment before replying, "Just me."

"I don’t believe you."

Chu Liangyu didn’t know if the other Beast Husbands would come, but given Xiong Jiaojiao’s personality, she would have insisted on tagging along.

However, Chu Liangyu didn’t see her.

Feng Qiwu guiltily rubbed his nose, not daring to look Chu Liangyu in the eye.

How could she not know he was lying? She said directly, "Alright, spill it. What’s the situation?"

"Well... that fox, the big oaf, and a rabbit came too."

Chu Liangyu guessed that "the big oaf" referred to Xiong Xianhui.

"And there’s another female with them."

So many people. Chu Liangyu was stunned for a moment; this was not what she had expected.

"So where are they?"

"By now, they should have reached Ten Thousand Beasts City."

Chu Liangyu nodded, signaling she understood, and started walking toward the cave.

’Get the little cub, and we can go back,’ she thought.

Feng Qiwu didn’t understand, but feeling guilty, he didn’t dare say anything and just followed her quietly.

Halfway there, Chu Liangyu remembered the half-crippled Mermaid.

"Being outside the tribe at this time... it must be about time for your bimonthly trip back to the sea."

Merfolk were creatures of the sea, after all. Being away for too long would inevitably affect them.

That was why Yu He had to take the little cub back to the sea every two months. Only after recuperating would he return to the tribe.

Chu Liangyu had only just remembered this, so she gave him a kind reminder, "I’m heading back to the tribe. Remember, I have your Life Phosphorus, so you only have one month for the round trip."

"Mm."

Yu He’s reply was concise, even a little cold.

But that was to be expected. No one would be happy to have their Life Phosphorus in someone else’s hands.

Chu Liangyu raised an eyebrow, unconcerned.

Turning back around, she was silent for a moment before saying, "It’s a bit far. You can fly me there."

"Don’t you have wings, too?"

Chu Liangyu’s face darkened slightly. "If I could fly, I wouldn’t need you."

Although Feng Qiwu found this odd, he didn’t say anything more. He transformed into a Phoenix and carried Chu Liangyu into the sky.

The difference in treatment was enormous. When faced with Hu Qiumu’s group, Feng Qiwu had been nothing but disdainful.

Yet when it came to Chu Liangyu, he was actually willing to carry someone on his back.

Chu Liangyu had never thought to ask Feng Qiwu to fly her before, nor had she experienced this change in his attitude, so she didn’t think much of it.

Perhaps to give Chu Liangyu face, when they mounted him again with the little fox, Feng Qiwu only shot it a displeased glance.

Flying was much faster than walking. Before long, they had arrived at Ten Thousand Beasts City.

Returning again, Ten Thousand Beasts City was even more crowded and bustling.

She saw a few faces she had seen the day before, but they were all busy with their own affairs, and no one recognized Chu Liangyu.

Unlike her first arrival, Chu Liangyu was now dressed in clean, flowing robes, looking for all the world like a fairy who had descended to the mortal realm.

Perhaps because the material of her clothes looked so different from theirs, she drew the gazes of many females.

She could clearly feel the admiration and desire in their eyes.

The corners of Chu Liangyu’s mouth curved up slightly. She was in a rather good mood.

"Female Master, look, they’re over there."

At a corner of the city wall, Hu Qiumu and the others were gathered in a circle, their expressions grim as if they were arguing about something.

The crowd was surging, and just after Chu Liangyu caught a glimpse, her view was blocked.

"Let’s go over."

Feng Qiwu nodded and thoughtfully walked ahead of her, clearing a path through the throng.

Chu Liangyu gave him a surprised look, suddenly feeling like she didn’t recognize him.

"Female Master, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Could it be... you’ve noticed I’ve gotten even more handsome?"

’Those words... why do they sound so familiar?’

’It seems I used a similar line to answer Yin Muli once.’
