Chapter 235 Men are most handsome when they are working
After Lin Ni finished her introduction, she took Xuan's hand in her left hand and Ling's hand in her right hand, and together they released the power of the Beast God to pray for blessings under the Xuanwu Stele.
The Xuanwu Stele did not disappoint, indeed casting dark blue water power upon the three. Then, Xuan and Ling ascended to the Heavenly Rank in front of everyone's witness. Xuan's tortoise shell grew to about fifty square meters, while Ling grew into a large green snake seventy or eighty meters long. The green snake coiled around the Xuan tortoise, and the Heavenly Rank Xuanwu Beastman finally reappeared on the Beastman Continent.
Xuanhe opened his spiritual aura to the fullest and stared at the beastmen in the vast North Sea, saying, "We will go with the Beast God's envoy to the towering mountains to awaken the White Tiger Stele. Any fearless beastmen can take this opportunity to attack the Xuan Turtle Clan."
The turtle-like orcs all dived into the water, knowing they wouldn't be able to surface again for three hundred years.
Xuan and Ling transformed back into human form. Their appearance remained unchanged; their dark blue, tousled hair and features were still as handsome as ever. However, their aura had become more composed, giving off an unshakeable, mountain-like presence simply by standing there. Then, Xuan and Ling reactivated the Xuanwu Stele, and together they swore: "In the name of Xuanwu, we swear: we willingly become guardian beastmen of the vast North Sea, protecting it with our blood, praying that the Beast God will bless the North Sea with peace and tranquility! May the Beastman Continent prosper!"
After speaking, they scratched their wrists with their fingernails, blood spurting out. Dark blue water energy condensed on their hands, sending the blood onto the stone tablet, causing it to glow blue once more. The blue light grew brighter and brighter, then projected onto Xuan and Ling, before spreading outwards like the waves of a vast ocean, traversing the endless waters of the boundless North Sea until it enveloped the entire North Sea. The cursed land that had formed in this sea area over the past year vanished, and the evil thoughts in the hearts of the beastmen were cleansed.
Xuan turned to the tens of thousands of beastmen in the vast North Sea and said loudly, "From now on, the blessing of the Xuanwu Stele will be given once every sixty years. I will have someone notify everyone before the blessing. If you are not notified but the Xuanwu Stele still bestows a blessing, it means that something big is happening on the beastman continent. No matter what you are doing, you must immediately put down what you are doing and sincerely pray to the Beast God. Otherwise, if you delay the Beast God's affairs, the chaos in the Rainforest Kingdom today will be the fate of the vast North Sea tomorrow!"
The chaos in the rainforest! The thought of the consequences weighed heavily on the hearts of the beastmen of the vast North Sea. No one wanted their mate to be confined to their tribe, unable to leave even a step beyond their territory—the situation was too terrifying. In the silence of tens of thousands of beastmen, Xuan shouted, "Let us all pray!"
All the orcs in the vast North Sea said in unison, "May the Beast God protect us!"
Then everyone made a prayer gesture, closed their eyes, and began to pray. While they prayed, most of the orcs, except for a few kneeling on the island, were half-submerged in the water. After three hours of prayer, Xuancai spoke: “Remember the Beast God's messenger's decree: on the fiftieth day of autumn, which is the Mid-Autumn Festival at noon, let us all gather again at the Xuanwu Stele to sincerely pray to the Beast God of the Central Forest, welcoming the Beast God's re-arrival. Now, disperse!”
All the orcs in the vast North Sea said together, "May the Beast God protect us!" Then they all dived into the water or flew into the sky (flying orcs such as eagles and seagulls) and dispersed.
Xuan and Ling also returned to their residence with Lin Ni and her group—they lived in a cave in the territory of the Xuan Turtle Clan—as soon as Lin Ni entered the cave, she jumped onto Xuan and gave him a passionate kiss: "Xuan, you were so cool just now!" No wonder they say that men are most handsome when they are at work. That commanding presence, that aura that silences thousands with a single word, is truly captivating to women!
Xuan smiled and hugged Lin Ni: "Little Lin Ni, do you like it?"
"Mmm!" Lin Ni said, giving him another kiss. Then she looked up at Xuan and suddenly remembered when she first met them. Bai said that Xuan and Ling were very similar to Yao and Ye. Ling and Ye aside, Xuan and Yao really were similar. They were both gentle and refined, and had an aura of authority. Xuan was the leader of the Xuan Turtle Clan and had been the guardian beastman of the vast North Sea for over a hundred years. As for Yao... well, this kind of temperament was exactly what she liked best.
Ling leaned in and hugged Lin Ni from behind: "Then little Lin Ni, shall we sleep with you tonight?"
Ye pushed him away: "You want to fight, huh?!" It was supposed to be her turn to sleep with him tonight, and you're trying to mess around?
Ling glanced at Ye: He couldn't win one-on-one. Ling was weaker than Ye, after all, he had to combine with Xuan to become a complete Xuanwu. Although Xuanwu was slightly stronger than Qinglong in combat, they were equal—Qinglong wasn't originally a divine beast primarily for combat—although they weren't divine beasts, only possessing a trace of divine beast blood, they were still essentially the same. Two against one, Lin Ni definitely wouldn't stand by and watch.
"Alright, stop fooling around!" Lin Ni said with a smile. She was very principled; whoever's turn it was, it was theirs.
Lin Ni and her group stayed with the Xuan Turtle Clan for another seven days, and each of her eight companions "rested" for two days before leaving the vast North Sea.
Since most of the powerful beastmen from the vast North Sea arrived when the Xuanwu Stele was activated, Linni and her companions no longer needed to go to the tribes to announce the return of the Beast God on Mid-Autumn Festival. She thought it best to go to the Ten Thousand Cliffs to help Yan ascend to the Heavenly Rank first, and then return to the Layered Mountains. Moreover, she didn't want to travel from tribe to tribe in the Layered Mountains again, because most of the tribes there would be going to the Tiger Beast Tribe for a ten-day trade fair on the thirtieth day of autumn. She could simply awaken the guardian stele under the White Tiger Stele and help Bai ascend to the Heavenly Rank on the day of the trade fair. Then, she and her companions would go directly to the Central Forest to awaken the Beast God at noon on Mid-Autumn Festival.
Linni's plan was unanimously approved. Coincidentally, her belly was also getting bigger, and a pregnant woman really shouldn't be traveling around anymore. It would be best for her to stay in the Tiger Beast Tribe and give birth in peace.
In addition, Xuan and Ling have adapted to their special abilities as Heavenly-rank beastmen in the past few days: Ling's ability is different from Ye's, he can only fly briefly, but he has the ability to generate fresh water with his bare hands, which will be very convenient for Lin Ni to use clean water in the future! As for Xuan, his ability after advancing to the Heavenly rank is that his tortoise shell space has been upgraded.
Xuan's tortoise shell space possesses the attribute of a portable space, capable of storing any item except living beings. The space is divided into numerous hexagonal rooms, like the patterns on a tortoise shell. While the outer surface is only a few square meters, there are over thirty rooms inside, ranging in size from a dozen square meters to over a hundred square meters. It's truly perfect for living! Of course, once transformed into a house, Xuan cannot leave it, nor can his physical body move, but he can move freely within the house.
