Chapter 194 Duoduo: Keep it up!
After Long Ze returned, he monopolized Ruan Xiyue for three consecutive days.
However, during those three days, he did not let Ruan Xiyue cause any trouble; instead, he simply held her and slept peacefully for three days.
Although Ruan Xiyue was grumbling a bit, she was happy to have some peace and quiet. After all, Long Ze's embrace was warm and reassuring, allowing her to relax for a rare moment.
On the third day, the lion clan leader, Luo Qizhao, and the leaders of the deer clan, dog clan, fox clan, and treasure-hunting rat clan all arrived.
They were all so excited that tears welled up in their eyes, rubbing their hands together, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement.
The lion chieftain, as the representative, spoke first, his voice filled with undisguised joy: "Holy Queen Xiyue! Of the nearly 1,600 females in the four tribes, almost 1,300 have become pregnant!"
Ruan Xiyue nodded, her face showing little surprise.
She already knew it!
After all, that night, she excitedly poked the cubs for ages while waiting for the results, and now the cubs run far away whenever they see her.
She chuckled inwardly. Wasn't this all to get firsthand information, which was why the cubs were avoiding her like the plague?
The lion clan leader, Cong Wen, grinned like a fool, his face full of smugness.
Upon seeing this, Luo Qizhao couldn't help but take a small step forward. Just as he was about to speak, he was glared at by the lion chieftain and had no choice but to retreat dejectedly.
At this moment, Cong Wen stepped forward and said respectfully, "Holy Consort Xiyue, the situation is as follows."
Most of the females who are pregnant are of low fertility and relatively weak.
They are pregnant now and should not be moved easily.
We were thinking, isn't the Lion Tribe and the Cheetah Tribe going to merge into the Cheetah Lion Tribe next year?
Therefore, we plan to start expanding the open space next to the Lion Clan village tomorrow.
In this way, the orcs of the Cheetah Tribe can move into the stone houses next year.
Ruan Xiyue nodded, signaling him to continue.
Seeing this, Cong Wen spoke even more respectfully: "However, expanding the stone house will require drawing many orcs, which will leave the tribe short of patrol personnel."
Uncle Luo and I discussed it and decided to borrow the guards of the Holy Mother of Xiyue and have them temporarily take on the responsibility of patrolling the tribe.
Of course, during the patrol, the supplies such as animal cores and meat for the guard team were all provided jointly by our two tribes.
I wonder if Holy Mother Xiyue would agree?
Ruan Xiyue raised her eyebrows and nodded readily: "Sure! No problem!"
They absolutely refuse to accept the wages I offer, insisting that they haven't been working and therefore can't accept the supplies I provide.
Finding them work now is a win-win situation!
Upon hearing this, Cong Wen smiled gratefully and nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, Holy Mother Xi Yue! We will definitely make proper arrangements and ensure that the brothers in the guard team do not suffer any losses!"
Seeing that Cong Wen and Ruan Xiyue had finished their conversation, the leader of the deer tribe finally found an opportunity to interject.
He rubbed his hands together and asked cautiously, "Holy Lady Xiyue, I heard that you plan to hold another bonfire gathering next spring?"
Ruan Xiyue nodded, her tone relaxed: "Yes, I plan to hold another one next March. However, this time each tribe can only be given two hundred females."
The deer tribe leader frowned, looking somewhat troubled. He rubbed his hands together and tentatively asked, "Could we... increase the number to two hundred and fifty females?"
Ruan Xiyue frowned, thought for a moment, and then shook her head: "At most, each tribe can have 220 female slots. Any more than that, and I'll really be exhausted."
The deer clan leader breathed a sigh of relief and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, of course the Holy Mother's health must come first! Otherwise, I would have done more harm than good!"
Ruan Xiyue smiled and didn't say anything more. She knew that these team leaders were all there for the interests of their respective tribes, but she also had her own bottom line.
After all, as a holy woman, she needs to win people's hearts, and she can't let them think that what she gives them is something they can easily obtain!
Upon hearing Ruan Xiyue's words, the deer clan leader nodded hurriedly, his tone respectful: "Yes, yes, of course, the Holy Mother's health must come first! Otherwise, I would be doing more harm than good!"
He paused, then quickly added, "That's right, our tribe brought too many orcs with us this time."
Tomorrow I will send 800 orcs back to the deer tribe first, while the remaining 500 males and 700 females will stay here.
To thank the Cheetah and Lion tribes for providing shelter, I will have these five hundred males participate in this year's beast tide defense!
Ruan Xiyue nodded, her tone calm: "Your arrangement is quite good. You can discuss the details with Brother Wen and Uncle Luo!"
Although she outwardly agreed with the deer leader's proposal, she was somewhat hesitant in her heart.
She didn't really want the males of the Deer Clan to participate in the beast tide defense, because she was planning to do something during the beast tide.
If only the lion and cheetah tribe orcs were present, she could move more freely without having to be so cautious.
However, upon further reflection, she realized that she couldn't rely too much on the cheetah and lion tribes.
What if there is a traitor among them? Wouldn't we suffer a great loss if we were caught off guard?
Thinking about this, she felt a little better and decided to accept the deer leader's suggestion.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, everyone left Ruan Xiyue's house and went to Cong Wen's place to continue discussing the details of building the stone house.
A few days later, Ruan Xiyue suddenly went into labor.
Long Ze immediately used his wind ability to teleport to find the witch doctor. Qin Ye, who hadn't gone out for the past few days, rushed to boil water as soon as possible.
Jiu Chen then carried Ruan Xiyue to the nursery.
While crunching on the energy fruit, Ruan Xiyue took the opportunity to swallow a painless childbirth pill.
In her mind, she said to the system, "Could you let Xia Weier's cubs be born first? Could you suppress Long Ze's egg and let it hatch later?"
Duoduo immediately replied: 【Sure, host. But you'll need to deduct 1000 points, dear.】
Without hesitation, Ruan Xiyue replied: [Knock knock knock!]
Duoduo: [Okay!]
As soon as the witch doctor stepped into Ruan Xiyue's house, he heard a little cub whimper.
Immediately afterwards, system notifications rang in Ruan Xiyue's mind one after another:
[Congratulations, host, on successfully giving birth to a cub, a male Moon Rabbit with heterochromatic eyes, possessing a purple-tier special ability. Reward: 200 points; additional 100,000 points for ancestral bloodline. Lifespan increased by three years.]
[Congratulations, host, on successfully giving birth to a cub, a female beast-type spirit fox with a white-tier ability. Reward: 200 points. Congratulations, host, on obtaining 3 square meters of Breath Soil.]
[Congratulations, host, on successfully giving birth to a cub, a male Moon Rabbit of beast form, with a Blue-tier ability. Reward: 600 points, with an additional 800 points for rare species. Congratulations, host, on obtaining five Energy Fruit plants.]

Ruan Xiyue blinked, a surge of joy welling up inside her—she now had another 410,000 points!
Duoduo didn't forget to remind her: "[Honorable host, you currently have fourteen years, eight months, and three days left to live! If you accumulate another fifteen years and seven months, you can have a near-death experience where you can exchange thirty years of your lifespan for survival!]"
Ruan Xiyue couldn't help but roll her eyes: [Hey, what are you talking about! I'm giving birth to a baby! And you're saying such unlucky things to me! So unlucky!]
