Done Breeding: Now I Rule the Beastworld

"Yes, your Beast Mother gave it to you."

Surrounded by the cubs, Hu Qiumu’s expression softened for a moment.

That’s right. Hu Qiumu actually knew what was going on.

Chu Liangyu had misunderstood. She thought the little cub had said something else to trick Hu Qiumu into coming over.

It was obvious he wanted to spend time with Chu Liangyu.

As for why he didn’t seek her out, only Hu Qiumu himself knew.

----

Three months later, in addition to the six-month-old Azure Dragon cub in her womb, Chu Liangyu was now also pregnant with a cub from the White Tiger Clan.

Although she was carrying the cubs of two different clans, Chu Liangyu’s belly was only the size of a six-month pregnancy.

The fact that her pregnancy only showed for one clan was a perk from the system. She didn’t feel any discomfort, but she was growing weary of these days of feeling like a brood sow.

On this day, Chu Liangyu told Yu Tu the news. He was ecstatic, even asking her in disbelief, "Female Master, is it true? I’m going to have a cub too?"

Chu Liangyu nodded. "Yes."

Receiving her confirmation, Yu Tu was overjoyed, yet also at a loss for what to do.

"Then I’ll go hunt, too. To gather energy for the cubs."

He grabbed Cang Yu, who was just about to leave to hunt, and said, "I’ll go with you."

With one more person hunting, Chu Liangyu would be able to replenish even more energy.

But she was only growing thinner and thinner. Her body was like a bottomless pit; no amount of food helped.

If this continued, Chu Liangyu would die sooner or later.

The one person who should have been the least calm was now more serene than anyone, even projecting an air of relaxed languor.

"Female Master, what’s going on? Why are you getting so thin?"

Yu Tu’s helpless expression was like that of a child, completely unaware of what was happening.

Chu Liangyu guessed he was worried about the cub. She gave him a cool glance and didn’t explain.

Instead, it was Cang Yu who began to explain. "Do you know why I didn’t want the Female Master to carry cubs from two clans at the same time?"

"My Green Dragon Clan is favored by the Beast God and blessed from birth. It was already a strain for the Female Master to carry a cub of my clan, and now there’s your White Tiger Clan cub on top of that..."

"Will the Female Master die?"

Yu Tu suddenly cut in with the question before Cang Yu could finish.

"She will. But don’t worry. Based on my observation of the Female Master’s condition, as long as we hunt more to replenish her energy, the cubs should be able to survive."

But Yu Tu roared, "What cubs? All you can think about are your cubs! I don’t want a cub anymore! I just want the Female Master to live!"

Cang Yu was stunned. ’Aren’t we with the Female Master for the very purpose of propagating our clans? Why would he say something like that?’

He couldn’t understand it. But when he saw Chu Liangyu’s increasingly emaciated figure, he felt a pang of guilt, and a bit of heartache.

However, that wasn’t enough to stop his desire to continue the Green Dragon Clan.

Yu Tu’s eyes were bloodshot as he confronted Cang Yu with a ferocious expression.

Chu Liangyu, who had been resting with her eyes closed, had opened them at some point.

’For once, my feelings are a bit complicated. A Beast Husband who doesn’t want a cub?’

’And for my sake, no less. This is the first and only time.’

’Could it be that the system’s catnip is too effective?’

’It’s made the tiger go stupid and start spouting nonsense.’

"Didn’t you want a cub badly, too? Why don’t you want one now?" Cang Yu stammered, wanting to understand.

"I like her scent. I don’t want her to disappear. If we don’t have the cub, so be it. It’s not like we can’t have one in the future."

As he spoke, Yu Tu looked toward Chu Liangyu with a fawning expression.

Cang Yu’s face darkened. ’Right, easy for him to say "so be it."’

’The White Tiger is only a few months along; it might die at birth. But my cub is about to be born successfully. How could I let Yu Tu act so recklessly?’

"Don’t want it? That’s not for you to decide."

He grabbed the hand Yu Tu was raising to strike and unceremoniously threw him out.

Soon, the sounds of a Dragon Roar and a tiger’s snarl came from outside. The two of them were fighting. Unlike last time, this was a desperate, life-or-death battle.

Chu Liangyu lay on the bed with her large belly, wanting to go out and watch but lacking the strength.

’To put it bluntly, my relationship with these men is purely transactional.’

’Their life or death is of no interest to me. It’s just a shame to miss a good show.’

’At this point, the system only has two choices: either expend all its energy to save me, or save the cubs.’

’And saving me would be the least profitable option. After this, I’ll have exhausted all my vitality and will no longer be able to bear children.’

Chu Liangyu was certain the system wouldn’t save her. And this was the opportunity she had been waiting for.

’Once I’m no longer useful, the system will definitely unbind from me. When that happens, I’ll finally be free.’

"HISSS... It hurts so much!"

Suddenly, cold sweat beaded on Chu Liangyu’s forehead, and her entire body began to tremble from the pain.

[DING—Host is about to give birth. To ensure the safe delivery of the cubs, the system will now deactivate perks such as painless labor to reduce energy consumption. We ask for the host’s understanding.]

"AARGH! System, go fuck yourself!"

It was the first time Chu Liangyu had ever cursed someone. To think it would be because of the system’s ugly true colors.

Chu Liangyu’s agonized screams were so piercing that a crowd quickly gathered outside the stone house.

The few Beast Husbands who were usually nowhere to be seen had, for once, all gathered today.

"What’s happening?"

"She must be going into labor."

"But the Female Master’s previous births weren’t like this."

Their expressions were all indifferent, as if they were merely discussing the weather.

They talked for a long time, but not a single one of them went inside to check on her.

The pain blurred Chu Liangyu’s vision. She was completely unaware of the people outside.

Her body was in agony, yet Chu Liangyu felt a sense of exhilaration, of impending release.

[DING—Childbirth complete. As the host no longer possesses reproductive capabilities and can no longer assist the system in collecting energy, the contract between the system and host is hereby terminated!]

As the system’s voice faded, Chu Liangyu’s breathing grew faint, her pupils starting to dilate.

’Finally... am I free?’

’This is wonderful. I don’t have to give birth anymore.’

A single tear slid from the corner of Chu Liangyu’s eye as her arm fell limply to her side.

----

"HEY! You shameless little thief! Leaving is one thing, but to not even leave a final shred of life force after using her up!"

"This is the first time I, this World Spirit, have ever seen something so shameless! I’m so pissed off! I’ll be sure to teach you a lesson!"

The youthful, energetic voice was like a ray of morning sun falling upon Chu Liangyu, dispelling the gloomy haze from her heart.

’But he’s right,’ she thought. ’The system really is shameless.’

Over the past few years, Chu Liangyu had experienced its shamelessness more than once. She wanted to break free but was completely powerless against it.

The system was like a parasite growing inside her body, like a rat in a sewer. Unless it chose to leave on its own, no one could control it.

"Breaking the rules of the world and hiding in someone’s sea of consciousness... no wonder I never sensed you."

[My lord, spare me! My lord, spare me!]

It was the first time Chu Liangyu had ever heard the system sound so panicked. She had no idea how the World Spirit would ultimately deal with it.

But at that exact critical moment, Chu Liangyu promptly fainted.
