Chapter 244 Sins That Women Should Not Bear
After explaining the protection of the Four Divine Beasts and Beast God Mountain, Linni discussed the origins of the Cursed Lands: Neither the ferocious beasts nor the Cursed Lands were caused by the female's curse; the female, bullied by the evil beastmen, shouldn't bear this heavy burden. It was because there were too many evil beastmen that the growing malice in everyone's hearts generated an evil aura. This evil aura resonated with external evil auras, thus creating the Cursed Lands. People forgot the Beast God, causing his divine power to weaken, rendering him unable to protect the beastman continent or dispel the evil aura in time, leading to the proliferation of Cursed Lands on the beastman continent.
In a secluded corner, unnoticed by anyone, Yi listened to Lin Ni's words and tears streamed down her face. She had always believed that this was caused by the curse of the females, and as a female herself, she also bore this burden. But it turned out that it wasn't! The females had never done anything to harm the Beastman Continent! Before she was about to pass away, she finally heard the Beast God's messenger vindicate the females!
Then Lin Ni told everyone to pray to the Beast God and the Guardian Beast on the first and fifteenth of each lunar month, and to pray together to welcome the Beast God on the Mid-Autumn Festival. After saying this, she said, "Now, let our guardian beastman of the towering mountains, Bai, activate the White Tiger Stele and help us dispel the cursed land of the towering mountains."
Encouraged by Lin Ni's gaze, Bai walked to the White Tiger Monument, raised his head, and loudly proclaimed, "In the name of the White Tiger, I swear: I will voluntarily become a guardian beastman of the towering mountains, protecting them with my blood, and praying that the Beast God will bless the towering mountains with peace and tranquility! May the Beastman Continent prosper!"
After saying this, he scratched his left wrist with his fingernail, using the white power of the Beast God to protect the blood as he sent it to the stone tablet. As soon as the blood touched the tablet, the White Tiger Tablet immediately emitted a white light. The white light grew brighter and brighter, projecting onto Bai's body and then spreading outwards, crossing the towering peaks of all sizes, enveloping thousands of mountains and rivers, until it covered the entire mountain range.
Bai released Lin Ni's hand amidst the light, transforming back into his beast form beside her. The two white tigers, shrouded in dazzling white light, were obscured from view, with only radiant light waves spreading outwards in concentric circles. Half an hour later, the light from the White Tiger Stele completely dissipated.
A 50-meter-long white tiger appeared where Bai was. It had wings on its back and immediately flapped its pure white wings to fly up. It roared and flew around the tiger tribe once before returning to the White Tiger Stele and transforming back into human form. In human form, it flapped its wings and landed.
Lin Ni's thought at that moment was: those with wings on their backs aren't necessarily angels; they could also be birdmen. Bai wasn't a birdman; he was a tigerman—a flying tiger beastman.
The biggest difference between Bai and Yao is that everyone else's wings are their hands, but Bai clearly has two hands, yet he also has a pair of enormous wings on his back. He didn't look any different from before, but after landing next to Lin Ni, Lin Ni realized that he had become two meters tall. Looking at his eight-pack abs, Lin Ni said: "Can you be shorter and thinner?"
Bai gently put his arm around Lin Ni's shoulder. Her shoulder only reached his waist. Lin Ni remembered when her father took her to school when she was in first grade. She and her father had this height difference.
Bai Mian addressed the thousands of beastmen standing amidst the towering mountains: "From now on, the White Tiger Stele will bestow blessings once every sixty years. You can tell this to your descendants in the tribe. If the blessing is not bestowed at this time, it means that something big is happening on the beastman continent. No matter what you are doing, you must immediately put down what you are doing and pray sincerely. You absolutely cannot delay the beast god's affairs. Do you all understand?"
After a moment of silence, Yang said loudly, "I understand!"
Then all the orcs shouted, "Understood!"
Bai didn't say anything more, bent down, picked up Lin Ni, flapped his wings, and flew away.
Linni's companions naturally transformed into their beast forms and followed. Of Linni's current companions, only Tiantian and Xuan cannot fly, but Xuan and Ling are originally one, so Ling naturally takes him wherever he goes. Seeing that Yao, Yan, and Ye had all flown away, Azhi was left with only Tiantian.
Bai didn't take Lin Ni back to the mountainside where they lived; instead, he flew her to the summit. Seeing them head towards the summit, Yao didn't follow and instead descended back down the mountainside. Since Yao didn't follow, everyone else tactfully gave Bai and Lin Ni space and went home first.
After landing, Bai changed his hold on Lin Ni from horizontal to vertical and began kissing her. They kissed for a while before Bai released her and asked cautiously, "Lin, can I call you Xiao Ni too?"
"Xiao Ni" seems to be a nickname exclusively for Yao. It's unclear when it started, but Yao stopped hiding it from everyone and called her that everywhere.
Xuan and Ling liked to call her Xiao Linni. It was perfectly normal for the two hundred-year-olds to address her like that, even when they weren't familiar with each other.
Then everyone called her "Lin," which was actually just her surname. The reason Chu Ye called her that was simply because she didn't speak much of the language of the Orcish Continent and couldn't even say her own name. Later, she discovered that most people on the Orcish Continent had only one character in their names, so she started introducing herself that way.
Linni smiled and nodded, saying, "Sure, you can call me whatever you like."
His white eyes sparkled as he showered her with kisses on her head, face, and lips. His lips lingered in her hair as he said, "Xiao Ni, what a beautiful name! My Xiao Ni!"
Linni smiled and let him kiss her; Bai was undoubtedly very important to her.
After kissing her enough, Bai let go of her and held her as they faced the Central Forest, saying, "Xiao Ni, we met in the Central Forest, and we may part ways there too. It doesn't matter. I know you like me."
Linni reached out and hugged his neck, gazing into the distance with him: "Time flies! Come to think of it, you've been by my side for the past six hundred days since I came to the Beastman Continent."
Bai nodded, kissed her cheek again, and said, "I've always been with you, watching you grow from being shy and weak to becoming bolder, stronger, and more beautiful."
Linni looked at him happily: "I'm getting bolder and bolder, but I'm still just as weak."
Bai shook his head and said, "Xiao Ni, you are not weak at all. Having traveled to so many places, have you ever seen anyone else who can fight with the power of the Beast God besides you? The power you possess is stronger than you imagine." He paused for a moment, then continued, "When you first came to the Beastman Continent, you knew nothing, yet you were able to overcome so many difficulties and dangers, traversed the entire Beastman Continent, and accomplished things that countless Beastmen wouldn't even dare to dream of. Your heart is truly too strong."
