She gave birth to a litter of furry babies, thus extending her life.

"Oh, you have a high opinion of me." Jiu Chen looked at Ruan Xiyue expressionlessly, his voice low and indifferent.

His thick, sword-like eyebrows were slightly raised, and his narrow, almond-shaped eyes, with their brownish-green hues, seemed like bottomless, icy pools, exuding a chilling and profound aura. He stared intently at Ruan Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue blushed deeply under his gaze, and her heart raced uncontrollably.

She couldn't resist and tilted her head back to kiss Jiu Chen's lips, but Jiu Chen turned his head away.

Ruan Xiyue's kiss landed only on his cheek, making a soft "smack" sound.

"Hey! You won't let me kiss you, huh!"

Ruan Xiyue was somewhat embarrassed and angry. She reached out and pinched Jiu Chen's chin, tilted her head back again, and wanted to kiss him.

However, Jiu Chen braced his arms on her sides and, with a slight effort, raised his body a little higher, thus dodging her kiss once again.

Ruan Xiyue angrily pushed Jiu Chen's chest, her tone tinged with sullenness: "If you won't let me kiss you, then I'll go find someone who will let me kiss you..."

Before she could finish speaking, a dangerous glint flashed in Jiu Chen's eyes.

He lowered his head and sealed her lips with his, silencing all the words he didn't want to hear.

He was confident that in a little while, he could transform that lovely mouth into the sounds he wanted to hear.

His kiss was domineering and passionate, carrying an irresistible possessiveness.

Ruan Xiyue was a little breathless from his kiss, and her hands unconsciously climbed onto his shoulders...

Jiu Chen stopped at the moment when Ruan Xiyue was about to climb to the top of the cloud. His voice, as mellow as a classical piano, rang in her ears: "Since you only care about the power behind Qi Heng, don't treat him the way you treat us."

Tears streamed down Ruan Xiyue's face as she gasped for breath. Angrily, she wrapped her legs around Jiu Chen's waist and pressed him against her: "And now! You're going to tell me this?"

However, Jiu Chen remained unmoved and did not follow Ruan Xiyue's force any further.

Instead, he stared at Ruan Xiyue without moving, seemingly waiting for her promise.

"You...bastard! I'm going to find Qi Heng tomorrow!" Ruan Xiyue pushed Jiu Chen away and said fiercely.

Jiu Chen nibbled on Ruan Xiyue's earlobe, his voice low and teasing: "That depends on whether you still have the strength to leave this room!"

Three days after the Deer Tribe arrived at the Lion Tribe, Ruan Xiyue finally appeared in the public eye with a rosy complexion.

"The Deer Tribe, Dog Tribe, Treasure-Seeking Rat Tribe, Spirit Fox Tribe, and Fox Tribe have all sent female and male orcs to participate in the bonfire gathering," said the Lion Tribe leader.

Luo Qizhao immediately added: "The Deer Clan has two thousand beastmen, including more than eight hundred females. The Dog Clan also brought more than six hundred females, the Treasure-Seeking Rat Clan has more than five hundred females, and the Spirit Fox Clan has more than six hundred females. However, nearly half of them are over thirty-five years old."

"The total number of females in the Fox Clan, our Cheetah Clan, and the Lion Clan combined is less than eight hundred."

He frowned, his voice tinged with worry: "This means nearly three thousand five hundred females... that number is far beyond what we expected."

Just then, Luo Yurou suddenly burst into the conference hall.

She grabbed Ruan Xiyue's wrist, her tone tinged with both dissatisfaction and heartache:

"How can you take advantage like this! You don't even protect Holy Consort Xiyue! These beastmen are making Holy Consort Xiyue so tired, and instead of protecting her, you're making her worry about these things!"

All eyes were on Ruan Xiyue, and for a moment, the conference hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Ruan Xiyue sighed and slowly said, "Everyone, don't panic. A large number of females may not necessarily be a bad thing for us."

Her voice was clear yet steady, carrying a reassuring power.

Luo Qizhao frowned, looking at Ruan Xiyue's already showing belly, and said, "With so many females, it will take you a long time to prepare the healing water."

Furthermore, we are concerned that excessive use of supernatural abilities could have very negative effects on the body of Holy Mother Xiyue.

Ruan Xiyue smiled slightly, her gaze sweeping over everyone, and explained, "With so many females gathered here, we can take this opportunity to strengthen the trade relations between the various tribes."

Didn't I mention it before? Some orcs are worried that they won't be used to life in the newly built orc city if they come with me.

We want to establish a trade market to change people's habit of exchanging animal cores for goods.

Once they treat exchanging beast cores for items as a common occurrence, the orcs who come with me to the Beast City will feel a little more at ease.

Furthermore, we can use this meeting to establish new rules and systems to promote the common development of all tribes.

The lion chieftain nodded thoughtfully: "The Holy Mother is absolutely right, but how should we put it into practice?"

Before Ruan Xiyue could answer, Jiu Chen, who had been standing silently in the corner, spoke up: "These issues will need to be discussed and resolved jointly by the Lion Clan Chief and the Cheetah Tribe Chief."

"Yue'er is not a power-hungry beastman. You don't need to consult her about everything that you can handle yourself."

Qin Ye nodded and said, "Let's discuss in detail the systems and rules that benefit our two tribes, Lion Chief and Cheetah Chief, in a bit."

"I have some objections to the fact that so many females were brought by each tribe this time. Next time something like this happens, we must make sure that each tribe can only select a certain number of females."

"It was clearly Yue'er who made the suggestion this time. Everyone rushed to implement it without refining her ideas, which resulted in such a heavy burden for her."

"I hope that in the future, the Lion Tribe and the Cheetah Tribe can help Yue'er refine her ideas, develop specific plans, and then implement them."

"Instead of having my Holy Mother propose something, you didn't help her check the details and just carried it out haphazardly."

Qin Ye looked at the two tribal chiefs, his voice cold and aloof: "Although the two tribes are weaker in strength, they should be quite intelligent."

"We should provide as much assistance as possible to the Holy Mother of Xiyue!"

Both the lion clan leader and Luo Qizhao looked somewhat ashamed.

Ruan Xiyue watched Qin Ye confidently giving instructions with a smile, thinking that Qin Ye was so handsome that her legs went weak.

He was like a piece of unpolished jade that had been covered in dust for a long time, with all the obscuring elements removed.

Finally, Ruan Xiyue said, "They've sent so many females; I think it's best not to let this bother us."

"Just tell them that if we dilute our healing water, we can let so many females try it and see who is lucky enough to increase the probability of conceiving offspring."

However, without dilution, each tribe can ensure that at least three hundred females are pregnant.

"However, without dilution, each tribe can only produce 350 females."
