Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

"Practice?" Cheng Mo glanced over and said.

This guy, why is he so infuriating?

Looking at his annoying face, my fists clenched!

"No, I'm saving my strength to bond with Si Lu, hmph!" Song Zhan raised his chin, looking quite proud.

His attitude definitely called for a beating!

Si Lu was utterly speechless!

Look at him, the way he says things; it's really a bit embarrassing.

What does he mean by "saving his strength to bond with me"?

Are all the beastmen on this continent this direct?

Turns out, this big tiger has this kind of personality!

Before, he had been holding back all along!

Song Zhan's face turned black with anger.

This damned guy, how did he get so smart all of a sudden?

Forget it.

Anyway, there will be chances to practice in the future. When the time comes, I'll definitely beat him so bad that Si Lu will despise him!

At this moment, the scheming plum deer had already made a mental note.

"By the way, Ah Mo, is the fish you were drying earlier ready?" Si Lu suddenly remembered the fish Cheng Mo had been drying.

It's been several days now.

By now, it should be almost done.

"It's ready. Wait a second; I'll get it." Cheng Mo said as he stood up and fetched it from the top of the cave.

Earlier, thinking it would be convenient, he had cleaned and dried the fish, hanging them from the top of the cave. There was quite a large bunch, and they looked pretty nice hanging there.

Besides, he had especially prepared the fish for Si Lu.

Si Lu turned to see Cheng Mo taking down a long string of dried fish from the top of the cave. The fish were neatly strung together, row after row, looking really good.

Who would've thought he dried the fish on top of the cave?

"They're all ready. Take a look." Cheng Mo said happily.

"Wow, Cheng Mo is really amazing!" Si Lu praised.

"Bring them over here. I have something cool to show you and Ah Zhan." Si Lu smiled mysteriously.

Since they're all family now, there's no need to hide anything.

Cheng Mo is already her bonded mate, so she trusts him completely. And Ah Zhan, who she has also accepted, is naturally family too.

Aside from her system, nothing else needed to be hidden.

"Okay." Cheng Mo, without asking further, brought over the string of fish and placed them on a large stone nearby.

"Little Deer, if you like eating fish, I can catch more for you next time." Ah Zhan said cheerfully.

As long as the female liked it, he was willing to do anything for her.

"Sure! But for now, I'm going to show you something amazing. But you must keep it a secret, okay? Don't tell any other beastmen, and don't let anyone find out. Since we're family, I'm only telling you guys." Si Lu smiled as she said this.

"Okay." Cheng Mo responded indulgently, his eyes full of affection.

Seeing how secretive Si Lu was being, he loved it even more.

"Mhm, don't worry. We promise to keep it a secret. I just sensed that there are no other beastmen around here, so no one will see." Ah Zhan nodded seriously.

"Good!" Si Lu said.

She walked over to the large stone, looking at the string of dried fish, a proud smile on her lips. A hint of triumph flashed in her eyes as she reached out her delicate hand and placed it on the dried fish.

Cheng Mo and Song Zhan watched closely, curious about what she was going to do, their eyes fixed on her movements.

Then, in the blink of an eye, the entire string of fish disappeared right where Si Lu touched it!

Both of them widened their eyes in disbelief!

This is...

How did it just disappear?

It was right there a second ago. In the blink of an eye, a whole string of dried fish was gone!

Song Zhan was completely dumbfounded! "Where's the fish? How did it disappear?" He rushed over to Si Lu, looking left and right but couldn't find the string of over a hundred fish.

"Could it be..." Song Zhan looked at Si Lu's hands in shock.

"Our Little Deer is truly amazing! You've really surprised me and Ah Zhan. Incredible!" Cheng Mo came up to Si Lu, his eyes full of astonishment.

He understood now!

This was a natural ability.

Just like him and Song Zhan. Song Zhan had an earth attribute, while he had a wind attribute. Si Lu must have a spatial attribute.

Who would've thought his little female would be this powerful?

It was truly unexpected.

However, he had never heard of any female having a natural ability before.

If this got out, it could be really dangerous.

Many beastmen would definitely come after Si Lu. The tribe might use softer methods, but rogue beasts... they would be ruthless. So, this secret absolutely couldn't be revealed.

"Hehe, I awakened it by chance. It's a spatial ability. I can store things in space, but I can't put living things in there." Si Lu explained happily.

"That's incredible! No wonder you're the one I've set my sights on!" Song Zhan, overjoyed, picked up Si Lu and spun her around.

"Alright, Ah Zhan, if you keep spinning me, I'm going to get dizzy." Si Lu said, feeling a little woozy.

Cheng Mo immediately pulled Song Zhan away and scooped Si Lu into his own arms, looking at her with concern, while glaring at Song Zhan, who looked as though he'd done something wrong.

He was just a little too excited.

He didn't mean anything by it.

"Be more careful in the future. You almost hurt Little Deer." Cheng Mo warned.

"Mhm, it was my fault. I just got too excited. I'll be more careful." Song Zhan said, feeling guilty.

He had been impulsive earlier.

He almost hurt the little female because of it.

If he had really caused her to get hurt, he would never forgive himself.

"It's okay. It's my own fault. I get dizzy easily because of my weak constitution." Si Lu immediately spoke up.

It wasn't Song Zhan's fault.

"Hmph, are you alright now? Are you feeling better?" Cheng Mo asked worriedly.

"I'm fine. It's normal for me to feel a little dizzy, nothing serious." Si Lu replied.

Seeing how much Cheng Mo cared for her made her heart feel sweet.

Being loved like this is truly wonderful.

"You have to keep your ability hidden, understand? You need to conceal it carefully."

"From what I know, no female has ever had a natural ability. Females are born as ordinary beastmen, with no power or abilities, weak and fragile."

"Now that you've got an ability, you need to hide it. I'm worried that if word gets out, it'll be really dangerous. Many beastmen will try to take you, especially rogue beasts. That would be like poking a hornet's nest, and they are impossible to defend against." Cheng Mo said seriously, looking at Si Lu.

Yes.

If Si Lu didn't have enough mates to protect her, it would be extremely dangerous!

Now he felt even more pressure to find more mates for his little female.

"You can rest assured. I won't reveal it. I only told you two because I trust you both. Of course, I'm not just capable of storing things. I also seem to have a field that can grow crops. But I haven't tested it yet, since I've only just awakened the ability." Si Lu said cautiously.

"What? You can grow things!" Cheng Mo's face turned pale.

This...

If this were known, the entire beastmen continent would be...
