Sally recognized her, Rona Resh, the daughter of the Clan Leader of the Rat Clan. She should have come to see Zulu, but that look in her eyes... it was as if she couldn't wait to devour her. Just as Sally thought, Rona had come looking for Zulu. After hearing that Zulu had killed a Two-Headed Wolf Demon Beast that dominated a part of the Qingmu Original Beast Forest, she became determined to have him at all costs. Even to the extent that she borrowed some enticing potion from Ashley, planning to cook the raw rice into cooked rice, conceive a child in one fell swoop, and then Zulu would have to marry her even if he didn't want to. As for Sally, she had looked down on her since the coming-of-age ceremony, but in reality, when she saw her, jealousy and hatred couldn't help but bubble in her heart. Jealous of her beauty, hating her for easily seducing away the male she liked with just her face. First there was Lin Lang, and then there was Zulu. Lin Lang had Ashley, with her superior fertility strength, she couldn't compete and let it be. Zulu, why should she have him! A female of the lowest rank with no fertility strength and doomed to be sent to the Female Cave sooner or later. Rona glared at Sally again fiercely, bought the jewellery in her hand, and turned to leave. Sally watched her leave her map range before putting away the map and simultaneously becoming wary of Rona. "Rona Resh, Brother Zulu, do you know her?" "The daughter of the Clan Leader of the Rat Clan, I've seen her twice." "She has superior fertility strength." "So what. There are plenty of females with superior fertility strength in the Rabbit Clan, too. If I were only interested in offspring, I could easily find one with even higher fertility strength." "I believe you could easily choose a partner. Females are attracted to strength, while males seek females only for offspring, but you seem a little different." "Others, I don't know, and it's none of my business. I am sure I am not one who places great importance on offspring." "A male without offspring, will they be discriminated against in the clan?" Just like Robby, who had already come of age, due to his low talent, no female's favor, no descendants; he was always excluded from the hunting squads. However, a male with offspring, even if he has no female partner, has a place in the tribe, walking with his head held high and chest out, never to be looked down on. Yet Zulu said domineeringly, "Who dares." "Alright, you're highly talented, you're amazing," Sally said with a laugh. "So when I have a child, how about you take care of it?" Zulu looked at her overly delicate figure, especially her waist, which was not even a handful for him, and her soft and boneless tenderness. Such a body, even if she were to conceive by chance, that act of giving birth would be a life-and-death trial, which he could not bear to witness. "Yanyan, I don't want children, and you don't have to have them either; don't force yourself." "What nonsense is this, I am already pregnant," Sally shot back a look, "I've already asked my dad. In all tribes, it's the same; children are raised by the males, and females are only responsible for giving birth." "That's right. If you truly have a child for me, let alone raising him, I would honor him as an ancestor. But the premise is you have the child, if someone else does, I'd rather be childless." ...Sally's originally calm heart suddenly stirred with a ripple. "We're here," Zulu stopped, pointing to an open-air shack by the road. At this time, many males were drinking and chatting, not a single female present. So when Zulu brought Sally into the shack, everyone in the public house turned their gaze towards them, with looks of astonishment, amazement, and curiosity... "Old Wolf, a bowl of wine and a fresh fruit platter, please." Zulu called out to an old man. "This must be Auro's daughter," Old Wolf said, coming over with a large bowl of wine and a sparkling fresh fruit platter. Sally courteously said, "Hello, Old Wolf, I'm Sally Millet, it's a pleasure to meet you." Old Wolf was slightly startled, as it was the first time he had seen such a polite and gracious female, and his expression became even more kind, "Alright, alright, today is on me, eat and drink as you please." "Thank you," Sally smiled in return, her stunning beauty captivating the room momentarily. Old Wolf was also stunned for a moment before coming back to reality, "Don't mention it, just call if you need anything." Old Wolf was then called over by someone else, and he went to attend to them. Sally picked a yellow berry from the fruit plate, chewed it in her mouth; it tasted a bit like pineapple and was very delicious. "This one's good; when we go back, let's ask Old Wolf to buy some," "Do you like Yellow Elemental Fruit?" "Mm-hmm." "Then I'll go pick some fresher ones for you tomorrow." "Great." "It's terrible, the Witch Clan's granddaughter is having a difficult labor!" Someone suddenly rushed into the tent shouting. Sally stopped eating the Yellow Elemental Fruit and looked at the shouting person in shock. Someone immediately asked, "What do you mean she's having difficulty?" "Who knows for sure, but she just can't give birth. They can save only the mother or the child!" "Ashley isn't from our Rat Clan, with her Superior Fertility; how could this happen to her?" "High Fertility Strength means it's easy to get pregnant, not easy to give birth. It's the same for all females giving birth; one careless moment and she might have to return to the Beast God." Sally wanted to know more details, so she went to ask the person, "When did you get the news?" The person glanced at her white hair and her perfectly beautiful face, "You are... from the Millet Family?" "Yes," Sally replied. "My brother went to the Rabbit Clan to ask for the Witch Clan; I found out just a short while ago, about a 'sha' hour." A 'sha' hour was about two hours. Sally rubbed her wrists, a habitual gesture when she was hesitating. [Xiaomei, is there an elixir that can save someone from a difficult labor?] [Yes, Sedative Pill, 50 points.] "Where does the Witch Clan live?" "What do you plan to do?" Zulu asked. "To have a look, for the sake of the tribe." "I'll take you." The Witch Clan's residence was a huge natural cave, with water and flowers and grass; the scenery was lovely. The Beast God Temple was also there. Right in front of the temple was an open space, convenient and spacious for holding various activities. At the moment, many tribespeople were already on the open ground, praying for Ashley's smooth delivery. Sally saw a familiar female, Shava Brollick, and expressed her desire to meet Ashley. Shava was very kind-hearted and immediately went to ask Ashley. Soon she received a reply; Ashley agreed to see her. As Grom emerged from the Beast God Temple after offering prayers, he saw Sally about to enter the birthing room. His expression darkened immediately, and he barked angrily, "Who allowed you to come?" Ashley's premature labor was also not unrelated to Sally. If Lin Lang hadn't been completely indifferent to Ashley, focusing all his attention on Sally, which led to Ashley's depression during pregnancy, how could she have had such a difficult labor? "Ashley wants to see me," Sally responded. Shava added, "Yes, Sister Ashley wants to see her." An old female who was assisting with the delivery, her hands covered in blood, came out from the birthing room and said to Grom, "Witch Clan, it's not good!" Grom no longer cared about Sally and entered the birthing room. Sally paused for a moment, then followed him in, exchanging for a Sedative Pill from the System Store.
