My husband is too wild, I need to go home and find my mom.

Chapter 99 Whose responsibility is it? Who should bear the burden?

Feng turned to Bai, his face also expressionless, and said, "I know you think Lin is very powerful because she helped you fuse with your divine soul. I also admit that Lin is indeed very smart, and the power of the Beast God within her is very strong, but she is just a female with no combat ability. I don't want her to bear the heavy responsibility of clearing the cursed land and saving the Beastman continent. This is not a burden that a female should bear!"

Lin Ni tried to look at Feng with a forced smile, knowing he was worried about her, and didn't know how to persuade him. Seeing Lin Ni looking at him, Feng took her hand and said, "You just stay home and take care of yourself. Let us men handle these things, okay?"

Lin Ni felt that Feng was being a bit chauvinistic. Why should women only stay at home waiting for men to return? They went hunting, they went to protect their homes, were women just appendages or tools for bearing children? She was determined to go to the Ten Thousand Cliffs, whether it was to cleanse the cursed land of the Beastman Continent or to find that sliver of hope for returning home, she would go. Even if she couldn't return to the modern world in the end, she would have no regrets, because she had tried her best, and she had seen the beautiful scenery of the Beastman Continent, so different from the modern world, hadn't she? Lin Ni made up her mind, looked up at Feng and said, "Feng, I know you are the next chieftain that the Tiger Beast Tribe is grooming, and you have your own important responsibilities. I won't blame you if you don't want to come to the Ten Thousand Cliffs with me, I and—" She looked at Bai and Yan, and Bai immediately said, "I'll go wherever you want!"

Yan also said, "I will stay with Lin too."

Ye hugged her tightly, and Yao didn't say anything. Lin Ni didn't look up at Ye, nor did she turn to look at Yao, because she knew they would stay with her.

Lin Ni looked up at Feng's slightly red phoenix eyes and said, "I can go with Yao and the others. You can continue to stay in the Tiger Beast Tribe and continue to protect the towering mountains."

Feng suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with disbelief, disappointment, and anger. He stared intently at Lin Ni, clenching his fists tightly, and growled in a low voice, "Lin, what are you saying?!"

Yao stepped slightly to the side, blocking Lin Ni's path, and gently advised, "Feng, if you want to talk to Lin, you can sit down and discuss it properly."

Feng glanced at Yao, took a deep breath, and sat down again: "Lin, I'm your partner. Wherever you go, of course I'll go with you. I'm just worried about your safety and hope you'll think it through."

Lin Ni was also a little frightened by Feng's appearance just now, and said to Yao, "Yao, I'm sleepy, why don't we talk about it tomorrow?"

Yao reached out and pulled Lin Ni into his arms, saying, "That's fine. Lin only told everyone that she was going to Wanren Stone Cliff, but she didn't say when she would go. Everyone can think about it first, and we can discuss it properly when we go sightseeing tomorrow." After saying that, he carried Lin Ni back to the room.

Bai glanced at Feng and said coldly, "The tribe can send flying orcs to Ten Thousand Ren Cliff to inform their strongest, so why can't we ride with them to Ten Thousand Ren Cliff? It will only take about twenty days to get there, and Lin hasn't even given birth yet! I really don't know what dangers we might face." After saying that, he turned and went into the room.

Feng clenched his fist again. Ye didn't say anything to him. Anyway, he was able to bring Lin and two level-three white tigers to the Tiger Beast Tribe on foot back then. There was no reason why they couldn't walk back now that they were all high-level beastmen.

Yan patted Feng on the shoulder. He understood Feng quite well. Feng was already old enough to understand when his mother was injured, so it was normal for him to worry about his partner repeating the same mistake.

Springtime in the towering mountains, like springtime in the modern world, is characterized by continuous drizzle. It started raining that night, and when Linni woke up the next day, she was a little disappointed to see the drizzle still raging. Then she thought of umbrellas and raincoats. She remembered that Night's snake molt was waterproof? Linni turned to Night: "Night, haven't you shed your skin yet this year?"

Ye said, "Not yet, in a few days."

Linni: Okay, I'll make the raincoat after you shed your skin, then you won't be afraid of the rain.

However, the Beast God was quite helpful; the rain stopped after breakfast, and Lin Ni immediately went out to play. Her companions, of course, wouldn't spoil the fun; everyone brought tableware and seasonings, and Lin Ni even brought her own weapons. This time, they didn't head north, but south. Lin Ni sat on the white tiger that Bai had transformed into, admiring the early spring scenery of the layered mountains: nourished by the spring rain, the leaves and grasses by the lake peeked out, conveying the message of spring with their tender green; birds, though unseen, sang merrily; the air was filled with the fragrance of damp earth—a gentle spring breeze, misty vapor, everywhere brimming with vitality.

Over an hour later, they arrived at a large lake. Feng said they had caught the big fish here yesterday. A vast expanse of emerald green water appeared before Linni. Wild ducks chased and played on the lake, and fish swam and swam freely. Linni truly loved the natural scenery of the Beastman Continent. She dismounted from the white tiger's back and ran and laughed along the lakeshore, exclaiming, "This place is so beautiful!"

Two white tigers followed her, running alongside her one in front and one behind, while Yan circled in the sky, checking the surroundings for safety. Yao and the others smiled as they watched Lin Ni run like a cub. This was their companion, the female they had fallen for at first sight: beautiful, cute, intelligent, pure, and kind.

Linni ran around for a while, then returned on the white tiger's back to retrieve her bow and arrows to search for small prey. With two white tigers following on either side as mounts, and capable of transforming into level eight orcs in times of danger, no one needed to worry about her safety. So they began to divide the work: they went into the water at night to catch various aquatic prey, Feng built a stove, and Yan and Yao went to find flammable branches—it had been raining a lot lately, and dry branches were hard to find.

Linni had been busy all day and returned with a wild rabbit and a very small bird. Everyone was already making sashimi and fish balls. Yao had boiled some shrimp and shellfish for her and offered her water and food when she returned. What a happy life!

Linni ate raw fish and shrimp—she'd heard it was okay to eat raw—but she didn't dare try raw shellfish. She did eat a crab, steamed until half-cooked, and then ate until she was stuffed. The crab was huge, like a tablet, with an incredibly hard shell; she definitely couldn't have eaten it without her partner's help. When Linni realized she could eat more than Yao now, she couldn't help but marvel at her enormous appetite: "I'm actually eating more than a man!"

Yao saw through her thoughts and smiled, "Lin has two babies in her belly now, so she definitely needs to eat more!"

Night: "How do you know she only has two cubs in her belly? We snake beasts have more eggs, usually eight or ten."
