After transmigrating, she became the most beloved beast in the world.

Chapter 118 Conflict

"Uncle?"

Yu Paopao grabbed Yu Zijing's hand, "Calm down."

He Yu frowned, forcefully trying to shake Yu Zijing off, but couldn't break free. "What, you have a problem with that?"

"Alright, just shut up." Yu Paopao glared at He Yu, then looked at Yu Zijing with concern.

In Yu Zijing's eyes, a dark aura began to appear in her once clear pupils, like a dark current slowly flowing in a deep pool. Her body trembled slightly, and the despair she felt was like a suppressed volcano, ready to erupt at any moment.

Yu Paopao stood up, pried open Yu Zijing's hand, and squeezed it tightly, trying to pass on warmth to him.

“Yu Zijing, think about it, your Yu’er is carrying your cub, no one can drive you away. What you need now is to calm down and not frighten them.”

He Yu tilted his head and looked at Yu Zijing, whose condition seemed somewhat familiar.

Hu Xiao nudged him with his elbow. "What's wrong with him? Something seems off!"

He Yu didn't have time to pay attention to him and continued to look at Yu Zijing. If it was really as he remembered, then he couldn't keep him by Xin'er's side even more.

Yu Zijing's emotions were unstable. He Yu's words struck at the heart of his deepest fears. His eyes gradually became unfocused, and black energy began to spread in his eyes, like ink dripping into clear water, quickly spreading outwards.

His breathing was rapid, each breath seeming as if he was suppressing an impending outburst of fear.

Yu Paopao looked at Yu Zijing with concern. They had to quell the dispute as soon as possible and prevent Yu Zijing from doing something irreversible.

His voice softened, and his beautiful face was like a dream. "Yu Zijing, take a deep breath and calm down. You can't let your emotions control you."

This is a hypnosis technique unique to his merfolk race.

"He is a fallen beast!"

A flash of white light appeared behind He Yu, and a bow and arrow appeared out of thin air, the arrowhead pointing directly at Yu Zijing.

Upon hearing this, Hu Xiao transformed his hands into claws and assumed a defensive stance.

Fallen beasts are extremely terrifying creatures. Once a beastman who is already at the eighth rank becomes a fallen beast, not only will he lose all his reason, but his strength will also be no weaker than that of an eighth-rank beastman, and may even approach that of a ninth-rank beastman.

"Fallen beast, fallen beast, no, I am not a fallen beast." These words were like a thorn piercing Yu Zijing's heart. His face turned pale, and his hands clenched into fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his palms.

The black aura grew thicker and thicker in his eyes, even beginning to spread towards his body, and an unsettling atmosphere began to linger in everyone's hearts.

Everyone realized something was wrong, and all eyes were on Yu Zijing. The oppressive atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

Yu Paopao intensified the hypnotic effect, gripping Yu Zijing's hand tightly. "Uncle, think about it, Chu Xinyao, and your cubs."

Unfortunately, it was too late. The black aura had already spread throughout his body, and his eyes were empty and devoid of life before being replaced by madness.

With a "bang," Fish Bubble was sent flying by his palm strike. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the wall and leaving a trail of dust.

"I'll hold him off. You guys go find Chu Xinyao. Only she can subdue him now." Ignoring his own injuries, he quickly got up and rushed towards Yu Zijing again, trying to use his body to hold him off.

He clung tightly to Yu Zijing's fish tail, which was gradually being formed by black energy. Despite the vast difference in strength, his will was firm, and he refused to give up.

Hu Xiao stared in astonishment at the scene, then quickly stepped forward to help. He turned to He Yu and said, "Yu, I'll go help. Go find Yao Yao."

He Yu gave him a cold stare, stopping him in his tracks. "Are you stupid? How could I possibly bring Xin'er here? Fallen beasts have no reason. What if they hurt Xin'er?"

How could he possibly let Chu Xinyao fall into such danger? With a flick of his finger, an arrow shot straight towards Yu Zijing. The arrow drew a graceful arc through the air, whistling as it hurtled, aiming directly for Yu Zijing's vitals.

The arrow was very fast, arriving in front of Yu Zijing almost instantly.

Although the fish, already shrouded in black mist, had its tail held by the fish bubble, restricting its movement, it reacted swiftly, twisting its body at an eerie angle to narrowly avoid the fatal arrow at the last second.

An arrow grazed his cheek, bringing with it a gust of cold wind.

Fish Bubble secretly groaned, "These two idiots!"

How could the three of them possibly be a match for Yu Zijing, who has become a fallen beast?

With just a gentle flick of its tail, the fish bubble was sent flying.

Seeing Yu Zijing coming in their direction, Hu Xiao immediately transformed into a white tiger and charged forward.

In just one exchange, he was struck by Yu Zijing's punch, his body flying backward and crashing heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Although He Yu's archery skills were superb, his arrows were difficult to hit under Yu Zijing's unpredictable movements and the cover of black mist. A trace of anxiety appeared in He Yu's eyes; his arrows had limited effect on Yu Zijing, and Yu Zijing's strength was gradually increasing.

Fish Bubble was knocked away again, looking at the three beasts in chaos in the courtyard. He stepped back and quickly left to find Chu Xinyao.

On the other side of the courtyard.

"Ah," Chu Xinyao said, clutching her lower back. Just now, it felt like the little baby in her belly had kicked her.

However, the ichthyosaurs are ovoviviparous creatures, so logically, there should only be four unhatched eggs in her belly, not small lives with legs. This fetal movement made her feel both curious and puzzled.

"Hiss!" Another kick, this time with even greater force, even causing her a slight pain.

These intermittent pains didn't feel like fetal movement; rather, they seemed to be reminding her of something.

A strange sense of tension welled up in Chu Xinyao's heart. Her hand unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, trying to feel for the faint signs of life. Her heart raced, and her intuition told her that the children inside her were reminding her of something urgent.

However, the next moment, Chu Xinyao shook her head, dismissing these absurd thoughts.

I chuckled to myself. It's just a three-month-old egg, how could it be so magical?

Just then, She Mo pushed open the door and walked in, carrying the dinner he had carefully prepared for Chu Xinyao. His gaze fell on Chu Xinyao, noticing her slightly furrowed brows and uneasy expression, and he immediately asked with concern, "Yao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chu Xinyao looked up at She Mo, hesitated for a moment, but still told him, "Mo, I feel... I feel the baby in my belly kicking me?"

Surprise flashed in Shemo's eyes. He put down his dinner, walked quickly to Chu Xinyao's side, squatted down, and gently placed his hand on her lower abdomen.

He said softly, "You're not allowed to be naughty, or I'll beat you up when you come out."

Chu Xinyao laughed, "You, they're so young, and you're already being mean to them."

As the two were laughing, a figure rushed in, shouting, "Little female, quick, Yu Zijing needs you..."
