Chapter 168 Old 5 White and Blue
Mona looked up at the sky. This senior had such a sharp tongue. But Bai Chen was smiling happily.
"Let's go back to the Beast Tribe first. Take your time and talk."
Bai Chen heard the words of his senior. Mona had a fox cub. His face flushed with excitement.
"Na, slow down. I just heard from an old man that you are pregnant with my cub. Go back and ask the witch doctor to take a closer look at you. If you are really pregnant, don't work so hard in the future."
"Do you believe what this old man says? Is there a single good word that comes out of his mouth? I don't believe it! I know my own body. Don't I know whether I have a baby or not?"
Bai Chen was speechless, not wanting to argue with Mona. He carefully supported him and returned to the Beast Tribe together.
"Go get me something to eat first. I'm starving. I've been staying underground all day, and I can only drink the air and the little spiritual energy your Teng Snake Clan left behind."
The Teng Snake and Silver Wolf tribe leaders immediately ordered their tribesmen to prepare food. When the food arrived, the fifth child of the Spirit Fox tribe devoured it with lightning speed. Soon, only the plates were left empty.
The fifth fox spirit sighed heavily, then patted his round belly, burped, and collapsed on the bamboo chair.
"Okay, now I'm full. If you have anything to ask, just ask it now. Don't disturb my sleep!"
Bai Chen couldn't wait to ask, "Excuse me, Senior, how do you know for sure whether Mona is pregnant?"
The fifth fox spirit stretched lazily and said slowly, "Look at her face. Her waist and abdomen are unusually round. She must be different from before. Her mood swings are also quite large. The most important thing is that her blood is connected to mine. She is not pregnant with my fox cub, but she and I have a sense of connection. What a bunch of idiots. However, the most accurate method is to consult a witch doctor."
At this time, the witch doctor came in, bowed respectfully to everyone, and began to diagnose Mona. After a moment, the witch doctor showed a happy face and said:
"Congratulations, Bai Chen, all the clan leaders. The witch is indeed pregnant. Soon, our Ten Thousand Beasts Tribe will have a new young master."
Bai Chen was ecstatic after hearing this, while Mona was surprised. She didn't believe what the old senior said at first, but she didn't expect it to be true.
"See! I didn't lie to you!" The fifth elder of the Spirit Fox Clan was so proud that his tail was almost up in the air. The beast husbands had different expressions on their faces at the news of Mona's pregnancy. Some were happy, some were frustrated, and some were disappointed. Seeing this, Soul Grass hurriedly explained:
"Let me introduce him to you all. His name is Bai Lan. He's good at divination and can see into the future. He's the fifth of our five brothers, so you can call him Lao Wu!"
No one heard what Huncao said at all. Only Bai Chen excitedly held Mona's hand, with happiness shining in his eyes.
At this time, Bai Lan walked in front of the crowd and said with a smile: "Don't worry, fate will take care of it. Every life has its own unique trajectory, we just need to follow its course."
His words were like a breeze, blowing away the haze in everyone's hearts. The beastmen were instantly relieved.
Mona glanced at Bai Lan with gratitude, thinking that this sharp-tongued senior also had the generosity to enlighten others. Perhaps he could provide more guidance for her and her unborn child.
"Senior Bai Lan, please tell me your origins and why you were suppressed beneath the Soaring Snake Totem! What about that eight-legged spider beast and the runes on its abdomen? What do they represent? Or is there some secret?"
Bai Lan glanced at Mona, who had a lot of questions, and rolled her eyes.
"Little female, I'm grateful for letting me out, but I'm your senior, not your prisoner. Stop talking to me in that tone!"
Listening to Bai Lan's words, they stirred up a hornet's nest. All the beastmen were furious and stepped forward to block Mona behind them, as if they were ready to fight.
Seeing that something was wrong, Huncao and Guiyuan hurried over and grabbed Bai Lan.
"You old fool, what are you talking about all day long? You thought you were in Cuiping Mountain and everyone was giving way to you! Don't you see where you are now?"
After Huncao finished talking to Bailan, Guiyuan said:
"Isn't this a question you're being asked? Just answer truthfully. Since you can predict the future, you should understand current trends. Isn't that something you can still say?"
Bai Lan was speechless after being confronted by the second and fourth brothers, and could only say weakly:
"I didn't refuse to tell them. How can I talk to them nicely? They're interrogating me like a prisoner!"
"I'm sorry, Senior. My tone of voice was a little off. I apologize to you, but this concerns the future of the Beast World. Please tell me in detail."
Bai Lan coughed lightly. "That eight-legged spider beast you're talking about is actually the ancient sacred beast Yutu. The rune on its abdomen is a curse of disaster. As for why I was suppressed here, it involves a long history... Back then, on a whim, I used divination to spy on the secrets of heaven, but unfortunately I touched a taboo and suffered backlash. To punish me, my ancestors sealed me here and set up a powerful barrier. Of course I had to escape. Sealing me in this godforsaken place would be worse than killing me."
"So you ran away, and were then hunted. Someone from the Silver Wolf Clan saved you. You used divination to predict that someone from the Silver Wolf Clan would return to their ancestral state, so you gave them the runes and the Moon-Gazing Mirror as a token of your gratitude for saving your life!"
"Soul Grass, you understand me. You're absolutely right. All these years have passed. If you hadn't accidentally broken the seal, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been imprisoned for much longer. However, now that I'm free, there's no need to dwell on the past. Now, I just want to live a carefree life."
After saying that, Bai Lan turned and left. Mona looked at his receding back, lost in thought.
"Old Five, stop! You haven't finished what you're saying yet?"
Bai Lan looked back and attacked the Soul Grass that kept the person.
"Why? You want to keep me here? Even though I'm not as strong as you, I can still put up a fight!"
"Old Five, you're still so stubborn and can't tell good from bad. Look at your ancient sacred beast, it's been dismembered!"
Bai Lan took three steps at a time and came to Gui Yuan, twisted his neck, and had a fierce look in his eyes.
"Tell me, where is the map? Whoever dismembers it will be crushed to ashes!"
Bai Lan followed Gui Yuan's finger and spotted the spider beast on the ground. A flicker of heartache flashed in his eyes, and he gently stroked the remains of Yutu, as if he could sense its past pain. "Who could be so cruel? To do such a cruel thing to an ancient sacred beast?"
Soul Grass sighed and said, "We didn't know it was your sacred beast. There are too many dangers on this continent, the appearance of the Sea Demon God, and unknown beasts running rampant. When we discovered it, it attacked us, and then the map became like this."
"Senior, if it weren't for the runes on its belly, we wouldn't be able to find you!"
"It's my fault. I've been telling it day and night how hard it is to endure this dark and gloomy place. It wants to go outside, but it won't sneak out!"
"Old Five, the map is a sacred beast that can be resurrected from the dead. Calm down and think about how to revive the map."
Bai Lan frowned, lost in thought. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his eyes became firm.
"I remember there was a method recorded in ancient books that could repair the body of an ancient sacred beast. However, this method requires some rare materials, and the process is extremely complicated."
Soul Grass nodded. "No matter how difficult it is, we must try. After all, the power of the map is crucial to the balance of the Beast World."
