Beast World: Rise to Power with the Offspring System

Chapter 16: Chapter 15 She is lying



"Of course not." Sally handed him the jar of salt.

Robby took the salt jar, looking at the fine white salt, which was completely different from the large salt chunks his father hid away.

He picked up a tiny bit and put it into his mouth, even more surprised, "How is this salt made? It's not bitter at all."

"I don't know." Sally grabbed another handful and sprinkled it over the roasted deer leg, some salt grains fell into the fire, sparking blue flames.

Robby was dumbfounded, "You're wasting so much!"

"All right, I'll take it over." Sally carried the roasted lamb leg on a wooden tray, along with a bone knife for cutting the meat.

"Let me do it, let me do it, this thing is quite heavy too."

"Okay." Sally gave him the tray, "Then I'll go change clothes."

When Sally appeared in the guest room, freshly groomed and dressed, everyone turned to look at her.

Before coming, she even spent five points to buy a set of cosmetics from the System Store and applied a delicate makeup.

To captivate a man, the first impression was extremely important, and stunning him was a surefire way.

"Father, your daughter has brought the wine." Her voice was crisp and gentle, very pleasing to the ear.

The moment Zulu looked up, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his entire beast soul lost.

In the world, there could be such a beautiful female!

Lin Lang beside him was also stunned.

When Zulu mentioned that Auro had a daughter, he thought it might be Sally. But then Zulu added that she was a young female, probably just born not long ago.

He forgot, Sally's beast form was very small; she was an albino mutant from the Rat Clan, naturally small in size.

"You, you're still alive?" Lin Lang's throat tightened.

Sally cocked her head slightly, with a hint of perplexity, "Why do you ask the same thing?"

"Ashley said so, she saw with her own eyes that you were dead, bitten by the Demonic Beast Grey Wolf in one bite…" Auro replied, which was also why he was so shocked to see Sally.

Everyone thought she had been eaten by the demon beasts.

"Obviously, she was lying, aren't I alive and well?" Sally spun around on the spot to show them she was intact from head to tail.

A flash of admiration crossed the depths of Lin Lang's eyes, but it was soon replaced by complexity.

He had married Ashley and no longer had the right to be with Sally.

Zulu noticed there was a problem between them, "What's going on here?"

Sally replied, "On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, Brother Lin Lang proposed to me. On the same day, the demon beasts from Senyu Beast Forest attacked the Rat Tribe. I wandered around in the Senyu Beast Forest for over half a month before I made it back to the Rat Tribe."

Lin Lang's face turned deathly pale, "You've been waiting there all this time?"

He had believed Ashley's words and hadn't gone to check himself. No matter what, he should have gone.

Raising his hand towards his face, he gave himself a slap.

The loud slap was so resounding that the surrounding area fell silent enough to hear a pin drop.

"This, give it back to Brother Lin Lang." Sally placed a Beast Skin Bag in front of Lin Lang; it contained the Crystal Coins he had given her.

Lin Lang looked at the Beast Skin Bag, his complexion growing even worse, "No need, if these can make up for some of my mistakes."

"You haven't made any mistakes." Sally smiled, "I also want to congratulate Brother Lin Lang and Sister Ashley on your marriage and the child on the way. When the child is born, I will definitely send a big gift."

Lin Lang could no longer stay, suddenly standing up from the stone bench, "Uncle Auro, I just remembered I have some other matters to attend to. I'll take my leave now and come back to bother you after tomorrow's hunt."

"Oh, alright, alright," Auro busied himself with answering.

Zulu felt it wasn't appropriate to stay either, but the roast venison leg was just too delicious. He chuckled, "Uncle Auro, there's no need to give the remaining 4000 Red Coins; this venison leg will cover it."

"Ah? No, no, that won't do. You can take the meat as you please, but we must settle the accounts that need settling. Otherwise, I'll feel uneasy accepting your game in the future." He went to retrieve the Red Coins as he spoke.

"Let's consider it settled, then," Zulu insisted, carrying the roast venison leg and quickly following Lin Lang out the door, fearing Auro might actually give him the Red Coins.

Robby looked left and right, unsure what to say. Finally, he slapped his leg, got up, and went out to see the guests off.

Auro came out of the inner chamber with a purse in hand, only to see Sally left in the guest room.

"Everyone's gone?"

"Yes," Sally picked up the Beast Skin Bag from the stone table and handed it to Auro, "Please trouble Dad to return this."

"Hmm, Dad knows what to do," Auro took the Beast Skin Bag.

"Zulu seems very interested in you," Auro thought of how Zulu had called him simply Auro during the day but lowered his status to calling him Uncle Auro now. It must be because he was interested in Sally.

"But with my fertility strength not measurable by the female stone, he may not marry me," Sally replied.

Auro nodded, "No worries. As long as Dad is alive, I will take care of you. When Robby marries, he must find a wife who can take care of you too. Otherwise, Dad won't agree."

"Mm, I wouldn't like a sister-in-law who can't make room for people either," Sally said with a smile.

"That's the spirit," Auro lifted his own cup and drained it in one gulp.

Sally returned to her own chamber and soon came back out, holding another Beast Skin Bag, "Dad, this is the salt we used for tonight's barbecue. From now on, when we cook at home, we'll use some salt to season the food. It'll help make Robby stronger."

Auro saw the refined salt in the bag, at least twenty pounds of it, and couldn't wait to taste it. In the end, his pupils quivered, "Yanyan, where did this come from?"

"A friend from the Eastern District gave it." Okay, an imaginary friend from the Eastern District...

"No wonder, we can't get this in the Western District," Auro carefully caressed the fine salt grains, "With this, we could even marry Robby to a female of the Rabbit Clan with Superior Fertility."

"Then let's arrange it, and find Robby a wife," Sally said laughingly.

"There's no rush," Auro treasured and stored it away.

Sally nodded, "Mm, Robby must like her himself."

Robby came back and heard Sally's comment, "What needs to be liked by me?"

"Talking about finding you a wife," Sally teased.

Robby's face turned red in an instant, "My talent is very average; there may not be any females willing to marry me."

"A rich man's foolish son has plenty of women to marry him. Showing off the Millet Family's solid wealth will certainly attract a female with high fertility but a poor background to join the family. Even if there are none from the Rat Clan, there's still the Rabbit Clan. Right, Dad?" Sally asked Auro.

Auro kept nodding, "Absolutely, absolutely, Yanyan's got it right. Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the Witch Clan of the Rabbit Clan and use some connections. Yanyan's salt will come in handy."

Sally replied, "Dad is welcome to use it as needed."

Robby's face was flushed, "I, I, I can live on my own."

Neither Sally nor Auro paid him any mind.

...

The Qingmu Original Beast Forest is ranked fifth in the Beast World Continent. Unlike Senyu that borders the Eastern District, it belongs solely to the Western District.

There are also Demon Beasts in the Beast Forest, but fewer than in Senyu, and they are not as powerful either, mostly lower-class entities.
