... Sally, dressed in a gold-leaf yellow maternity dress and wearing a pair of flat shoes adorned with matching beads, walked through the garden. Suddenly, she stopped, her pupils dilated in shock, "Xiaomei, what did you say? This time it's a year-long pregnancy!" It felt almost the same as carrying a human baby. Xiaomei, "The Angel Clan is different from other Beast Clans. Their offspring are born at Saint Rank, which takes longer to gestate. If it were another female beast, a hundred-year pregnancy wouldn't be strange." Sally was used to a month-long pregnancy, so one year was hard to accept, "That's way too long." Xiaomei, "The original plan was to find the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox after giving birth to the Angel. It's Xiaomei's fault for forgetting the slow development trait of the Angel Clan." Sally sighed, "No wonder my appetite isn't as strong as last time; it's spread out over a year." Looking at the colorful roses in the garden, she suddenly thought of Frans's body scent and how he seemed to understand that with the Offspring System, the fetus was absolutely safe, always pestering her for 'exercise'. "Xiaomei, his desires are a bit excessive." Unlike other Beast Husbands, Zong Silu and the others always prioritized protecting her body first. Frans was different; although he cared for the child, presenting her with many precious heavenly treasures, his newfound taste for intimacy made him insatiable, and she worried that it might eventually harm the child. In the Beast World, pregnant females instinctively prioritize the fetus. If the male poses even the slightest threat to the child, it could trigger a strong rejection from the mother. "Host... but... do you want to leave this place?" Xiaomei's voice sounded sluggish. The system had been inexplicably lagging recently, but the Defense System had raised no alarms. "Leave?" Sally didn't notice Xiaomei's abnormal behavior and after a moment, she suddenly smiled cunningly, "Perhaps it's possible." A while ago, she had used the System Map to track down Lilith. Unwilling to let someone else snatch her prized possession, Lilith was now using her family's shady connections to kidnap Sally and sell her to a brothel on another continent. It was both stupid and cruel, but now it suited her purposes perfectly. Xiaomei fell silent once again. Sally remained oblivious to Xiaomei's anomaly and continued walking. Approaching from the opposite direction was a Holy Church Knight, dressed in a red robe, smiling at her and carrying a black staff that appeared a mere foot in length. Sally instinctively paused, then took another path to avoid the red-robed Holy Church Knight. The knight had quietly raised his staff, but Sally's sudden change of direction caught him off guard, and he retracted the staff. "Xiaomei?" Sally called out to Xiaomei. It took a while for Xiaomei to respond: "Host, how long was I lagging just now?" "You lagged?" Sally never knew Xiaomei could lag. "Xiaomei is a System. Installed in the host's body, it can also be removed by others." "What?!" Sally's complexion changed drastically, and reflexively, she looked back towards where the red-robed Holy Church Knight had been. He was no longer in sight. Xiaomei continued: "Things haven't been quite right recently, but the Defense System hasn't issued any warnings." "Why didn't you say so earlier?" Sally forced herself to fully calm down and carefully analyzed the recent events. To her, Xiaomei was as vital as air and water; absolutely nothing could go wrong with it. Holy War, Holy Church, Holy War Committee, Offspring System... All sorts of information flooded into Sally's highly analytical mind. ... Lena held a basket of fruit in her hand as she approached the Holy Palace, wishing to bid farewell to Sally. However, the moment she mentioned seeing Sally, the Holy Palace Guards rejected her request. Even when she claimed to have been a candidate for Holy Mother, she was unceremoniously turned away. The way they looked at her changed as well, with a sleaziness that made her incredibly uncomfortable. Clutching the fruit basket, Lena turned and walked away. Not much further, she stopped in her tracks, and her fox ears swiveled backward... "...The Peacock has been locked up by his family; they won't let him associate with that flirtatious fox anymore." "Why?" "Do you remember the fate of the last Holy Mother and the candidates?" "Could it be, they are going to uninstall the system?" "Yes. Had it not been for the Holy Mother in the palace having conceived the Holy Monarch's child, they would have uninstalled it long ago. But good luck only lasts for one month; after one more month when she gives birth to the child—" "Stand guard properly," someone shouted. The two immediately clammed up and said no more. Lena's face had morphed into an angry fox's visage, utterly frightening to behold from the front. Nevertheless, she quickly returned to her usual appearance and continued walking along the palace walls. Until she reached a spot thick with vegetation, she instantly transformed into a one-tailed Red Fox and darted into the thicket. The periods of Xiaomei's feigned death were getting longer, sometimes occurring after only a few words, causing her to lapse into the dead-like state. And in the System Store, items could only be bought when Xiaomei was awake. Items within the System Space could be retrieved normally, but asking Xiaomei to create something new for her was, for the time being, impossible. "Sister Sally—" a Red Fox emerged from the flowers and called out to Sally in a whisper. "Lena!" Sally was astounded. "How did you get here and..." Upon seeing the mud on her paws, Sally immediately realized she had snuck in. "Let's find a convenient place to talk. I have something very important to tell you, concerning the Offspring System," Lena urged Sally. Sally nodded immediately, "Okay." She opened the System Map; people were everywhere nearby. But there was a storage room where, within a two-hundred-meter radius, no one stood guard. Next to it was a man-made rockery waterfall, whose loud water noise could serve as a cover. Sally picked up Lena, "Excuse me." Lena didn't resist, and even took the opportunity to rub against her chest... "Mmm! Not big, but very elastic." Sally was speechless. Was she being flirted with by someone of the same sex? Once they reached the storage room, Sally placed Lena on the table and asked, "What exactly happened?" Lena offered the fruit basket she had brought earlier. Despite sneaking in, she didn't want to neglect the customary civility. "I'm planning to return to the Fox Hole. I wanted to say goodbye before I left, but the Holy Palace Guard stopped me at the doors. However, with my keen hearing, I eavesdropped on their conversation..." After listening to Lena, Sally took a moment to think, then shared the strange behavior of her own Offspring System with her. Lena was shocked. "Does your system possess consciousness?" "What do you mean?" Sally frowned. "My Offspring System is just a space with a room and a pond. On the shelves in the room, there are Pregnancy Elixirs that only I can use," Lena explained as she took out a dark elixir, showing it to Sally. Sally took the black Pregnancy Elixir from Lena and then retrieved her own golden Pregnancy Elixir to compare the two.
