"Keep an eye on Shu Shu."
Suddenly, I was handed over to Yu Sheng. She turned her head in panic and saw her brother jumping out. His body instantly expanded in mid-air, transforming into a huge blue and white creature resembling a snow leopard, larger than the gray wolf.
It had a pair of beautiful white antlers on its head, and its tail, instead of being furry, was adorned with blue scales, giving it a very dangerous appearance.
This was her big brother's beast form! Handsome and majestic.
In the blink of an eye, the snow leopard and the gray wolf were entangled in combat.
Although the gray wolf was not as large as the snow leopard, its mental power outburst made it appear more ferocious and dangerous.
Ruan Shu held onto Yu Sheng's clothes tightly, her small fingertips turning white from the force.
Her small face was filled with worry as she looked at her brother.
"Don't be nervous; a mentally out-of-control gray wolf is no match for your brother."
At that moment, however, she couldn't hear anything. Her eyes were fixed on the snow leopard, silently cheering for her brother, hoping he wouldn't get hurt.
In the end, the snow leopard emerged victorious, pinning down the frenzied black wolf after a few minutes, and viciously biting its neck.
Its once beautiful amber eyes now exuded a fearsome ferocity.
The gray wolf seemed to lose its strength and slumped down.
"Dad, don't hurt my father!"
A girl suddenly rushed out and ran towards the gray wolf, crying and looking very distressed. "Please don't hurt him!"
The snow leopard let out a fierce growl, its eyes flashing with a cold glint, frightening the girl and causing her to fall to the ground.
At that moment, the subdued gray wolf suddenly exploded, knocking over the snow leopard with great force before running off. Its eyes brimmed with hostility as it advanced towards Ruan Shu and the others.
Upon witnessing this, Ruan Qingran displayed a murderous look in his eyes. His emerald eyes momentarily turned red, and his ice-blue mental power spread out, immobilizing everyone present.
But he quickly refrained from saying it and swiftly chased after the gray wolf.
Ruan Shu was left stunned, and Yu Sheng clicked his tongue.
"Trouble."
He instructed Ruan Shu to cover her ears.
Ruan Shu obediently covered her ears with her small hands as Yu Sheng's sharp voice resonated like ripples from his mouth.
The gray wolf, which was nearby, suddenly twisted in pain and fell to the ground, howling in agony. Many people around were also affected.
Even though Ruan Qingran's head shook slightly, he quickly resisted the shock of the sound and ran over, pinning down the gray wolf with a claw.
Yu Sheng stopped and looked down at the dazed Shu Shu.
"Are you okay?"
Ruan Shu didn't reply; her mind was filled with buzzing noises, her beautiful eyes looking dull and somewhat vacant.
The Interstellar Patrol arrived and promptly confined the gray wolf in a cage along with the snow leopard.
The girl who had been knocked over ran over, crying, with blood flowing from her mouth, clearly injured.
"Dad, Dad, wake up… why did this happen?" He had taken the suppressant before coming out.
The girl, covered in blood, cried out in anguish as she watched the gray wolf being taken away.
Everyone remained silent as no one could offer assistance.
Ruan Shu seemed dazed, and it took her a while to grab her brother's clothes and look up at him.
"Brother?"
What's going on?
She had now guessed that the gray wolf was actually a member of the Star Beast Clan, but why had it turned out like this?
Ruan Qingran patted her head. "Scared?" "Don't be afraid."
Ruan Shu looked at the girl being taken away by the doctor, feeling a bit down.
"That gray wolf just now was a member of the Star Beast Clan with uncontrollable mental power," Yu Sheng's voice resonated in her ears. It was still as beautiful and melodious as before, like musical notes dancing.
It was hard to believe that the sharp, lethal sound from earlier had come from him.
"Mental power out of control?" Ruan Shu looked at them blankly.
Ruan Qingran held her hand as they walked and said, "Losing control of one's mental power is an illness, a condition caused by contamination from a substance X." It affects all races in the galaxy and is more likely to impact individuals with higher mental abilities. When completely out of control, they transform into beast forms, going mad and attacking everyone around them indiscriminately.
Ruan Shu held onto his clothes tightly. "Can it not be treated?"
Ruan Qingran closed his eyes. "All races are researching this issue, but after so many years, only a suppressant has been developed." It can suppress individuals experiencing a mental power outburst, but it is only a temporary solution. "And because of prolonged suppression, once we reach our tolerance limit, our mental strength will erupt even more fiercely."
Ruan Shu's soft voice now carried a hint of anxiety. "Does my brother also have this illness?"
Before Ruan Qingran could answer, Yu Sheng spoke for him. "This is a common ailment among all races in the universe, so it's not surprising that your brother would have it, and..."
"Yu Sheng," Ruan Qingran interrupted.
Yu Sheng shrugged. "Alright, I won't say anymore."
Ruan Qingran gently touched her face.
"Don't worry, I'm fine now."
Ruan Shu pursed her lips and made a muffled sound against his neck with her snow-white little arms.
How could he be fine? She had a strong feeling that what Yu Sheng had left unsaid was important.
After such a scare, Ruan Shu, now feeling relaxed, was held by her brother and started to feel drowsy. Her body was easily prone to drowsiness now. She lay on her brother, her small face pressed against his broad shoulder, breathing in his scent, and listening to her brother and Yu Sheng chatting. She gradually fell asleep.
Her soft, gentle white hair cascaded down, giving her a quiet and obedient appearance. Her chubby, snow-white cheeks were slightly flattened, and her curly eyelashes resembled delicate little fans, making her appear more like a doll than a real person.
Accompanied by the soft and even breathing, the sight of the fragile little girl sleeping softened everyone's hearts.
The two large men standing beside her unconsciously started to breathe more lightly.
Yu Sheng looked on with envy. Such a well-behaved little girl was hard to find in the entire galaxy. How had the Ruan family been so lucky to have her as a sister?
Ruan Qingran held his sister gently, and his eyes softened as he looked at Yu Sheng with a mix of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
"What's wrong with your mental power?" Yu Sheng frowned at him.
After their battle with the gray wolf, he observed that Ruan Qingran's mental strength was somewhat unstable.
