Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 351: Southern Lands

The expression on the face of this ancestor of the Xuanyuan Clan was also tinged with waves as he spoke these words.

This is the hope of the Xuanyuan Clan.

It was precisely because he sensed this anomaly from the Xuanyuan Clan, an auspicious omen from heaven and earth, that he interrupted his retreat midway.

"We must use all resources and strength of the entire clan to cultivate."

The words of the ancestor carried the greatest authority. Once he spoke, all Beastmen of the Xuanyuan Clan would follow instinctively.

Moreover, everyone understood that this matter was only beneficial for the Xuanyuan Clan.

The ancestor, along with the others, observed the light of this anomaly and then discovered that the light had fallen upon a certain palace residence.

"What is that?"

The Clan Leader and the Clan Elders looked at that place and paused for a moment, but everyone showed a look of understanding.

In the entire Xuanyuan Clan, only their Young Master’s Thunder Beast bloodline was most pure.

Other Beastmen were all mixed-blood Thunder Beastmen with bloodlines that were less than pure to varying degrees.

"Reporting to the ancestor, that is the Young Master’s residence."

"Young Master?"

The last time the ancestor emerged from retreat was over twenty years ago, when the internal chaos in the Xuanyuan Clan nearly led to its destruction.

The clan’s affairs were basically settled. At that time, their Clan Leader, Xuanyuan Bin, disappeared during the internal strife and was presumed dead. Add to that the ancestor’s severe injuries, unable to withstand such a blow, leading him to retreat once again.

The ancestor would only emerge for matters of utmost importance.

The Clan Leader spoke, "Reporting to the ancestor, the Young Master is Xuanyuan Qinglan, previously summoned back by Xuanyuan Shen Shenguang..."

The Clan Leader explained in detail the origins of Xuanyuan Qinglan.

Even though Yun Qinglan insists on being called Yun Qinglan, in the clan’s hearts, he is Xuanyuan Qinglan.

The Clan Leader explained the events and then added, "He is the son of Bin."

The original Clan Leader was Xuanyuan Bin, also the ancestor’s own grandson.

When Xuanyuan Bin was young, his parents died during a mission outside, and the ancestor personally took care of Xuanyuan Bin for a while.

"Bin’er has a son?"

"Is Bin’er still alive?"

The ancestor’s voice trembled slightly.

"Bin is dead, only the Young Master survives."

"Today happens to be the Young Master’s wedding day."

At such an important time, even though they were eager to understand the matter, they could not disturb it.

When Xuanyuan Kun heard this news, his eyes instantly reddened.

Back then, he thought Bin’er was dead; he never expected him to be alive and to have had a son.

Yet, if Bin’er survived elsewhere, the female he married would likely belong to another clan of Beastmen.

How could his son maintain pure-blood Thunder Beastman status?

Unless that female was also a Thunder Beastman.

Thinking of this, the ancestor Xuanyuan Kun naturally felt a thrill.

Yet, he certainly couldn’t reveal any abnormality in front of the clan members.

"Then let us wait."

"How is the female he married?"

The Clan Leader respectfully explained everything to the ancestor.

Once again, the ancestor revealed a look of surprise.

It appears that his grandson has quite an eye, as this female is quite exceptional, both brave and wise.

But just as they were waiting anxiously, they vaguely heard something.

Everyone’s expressions tightened, "This is... What is this sound?"

"It’s not the sound of our Thunder Beastmen; it’s coming from the Young Master’s palace."

Although the sound wasn’t very loud, given the strength of the Clan Leader and Clan Elders, they could naturally hear it clearly.

The Great Witch rarely came down from the mountain and looked at everyone, saying, "This is the sound of the White泽 Divine Beast."

The Great Witch has lived for several hundred years and knew that this was the call of the White泽 Divine Beast.

Upon hearing this, everyone was both astonished and excited.

It was indeed the White泽 Divine Beast.

Yes, they knew that their Thunder Beastmen could evolve, possibly into Divine Beasts in the end, but such ability existed only during the time of the ancestors.

Now they have regressed and no longer possess such ability.

Hearing it with their own ears now, they could hardly contain their excitement and each eye seemed to shine.

...

Under Su Muyao’s mental soothing, Yun Qinglan regained normalcy.

He gradually returned to consciousness, although his body was somewhat exhausted.

Yun Qinglan looked at Su Muyao with an apologetic expression, weakly saying, "Wife, I’m sorry for worrying you just now."

Su Muyao, with a look of concern, asked Yun Qinglan, "Can you not revert to human form yet?"

"Has your current true form changed due to evolution?"

"You’ve grown a small horn on your head."

In Yun Qinglan’s true form, a small horn had emerged, but it was white and transparent, extremely beautiful.

Su Muyao even found it somewhat cute and couldn’t resist gently touching it with her hand.

Yun Qinglan let out a slight, muffled groan.

Su Muyao, startled, asked, "Are you uncomfortable?"

"No, it’s just that the newly grown horn is quite sensitive."

Once Yun Qinglan regained his strength, he transformed into a human form.

Su Muyao carefully observed Yun Qinglan, noting that his appearance hadn’t changed, but his aura had become more ethereal, carrying a sense of immortal grace.

Yun Qinglan pulled Su Muyao to sit beside him and explained, "Wife, I find your bloodline very mysterious. After we formed a Contract and the companion mark was engraved on our bodies, it seemed like my blood was ignited, as if a distant lineage was emerging from within, causing involuntary changes."

"In my mind’s eye, I suddenly possess ancestral memories, understanding that this is the process of evolving into Bai Ze."

"This process may be quite lengthy and could either succeed or fail."

He himself was uncertain.

Nonetheless, once evolved into a Bai Ze Beastman, his power would grow stronger, and he would gain the innate ability of the Bai Ze Beastman.

Su Muyao reassured him, "It’s alright, even if you don’t evolve into a Bai Ze Beastman, being a Thunder Beastman is great."

"For now, don’t dwell on these things or add pressure to yourself."

They spoke at length, and when dawn arrived, the two emerged from the palace only to find the Clan Leader and all Clan Elders standing outside.

Su Muyao and Yun Qinglan both showed expressions of surprise.

...

Three days later

Su Muyao followed Bi Zhixu’s convoy to depart, preparing to head to the Bishui Tribe.

Su Muyao lifted the curtain of the carriage to gaze at the gradually receding gate of Xuanyuan City, feeling a touch of loss.

The system consoled her, "Host, once Yun Qinglan evolves into a Bai Ze Beastman, he will come to find you."

Su Muyao nodded.

That day, after Xuanyuan Ancestor emerged and met them, he was deeply stirred, yet calmly talked to them about the evolution of Thunder Beastmen.

Once evolution begins, it cannot be halted. If it fails midway, one becomes a waste.

Hence, the ancestor plans to bring him into the forbidden land of Xuanyuan Mountain, the clan’s ancestral ground, and utilize the strength of the entire clan to aid his evolution into a Bai Ze Beastman.

Yun Qinglan entered Xuanyuan Mountain, and she temporarily bid farewell to the Xuanyuan clan to follow her cousin to the Bishui Tribe.

Initially, the Xuanyuan clan members were concerned that she would encounter danger upon leaving.

They wanted her to stay, but she had many things to do and couldn’t remain in the Xuanyuan Tribe indefinitely.

Besides, staying wouldn’t be beneficial, nor would she be able to see Yun Qinglan, who was in retreat and evolving.

"Cousin, are you truly planning to return to the Bishui Tribe?"

"Once you return, there’s a possibility of being offered as a sacrificial tribute. The tribes in the south have gone mad, focused on the females of the Bishui Tribe."

Su Muyao, with a determined expression, said, "Cousin, you don’t need to worry about me. I know what to do."

Only by entering the Yao River formed by the Yaochi Water can she understand the significance of the River God and the sacrificial offering.

Above all, she absolutely must find her mother.

"I only ask for you to help me locate my Beast Husband."

Bi Zhixu replied, "Don’t worry, I’ve already arranged for people to search for information on them."

The convoy progressed southward, and the journey remained peaceful.

After over a month, they arrived at the southern territory.

Throughout the journey, Bi Zhixu was especially vigilant, fearing any potential danger on the road.

At this moment, he could finally sigh with relief, "Cousin, once we pass through this Ancient Ruins Canyon, we will arrive at the southern territory, our domain."

Just as Su Muyao was about to speak, she sensed an ominous presence and a swift, piercing noise rang out.

Bi Zhixu’s face changed, "Cousin, be careful, there are assassins."
