But that female was perfectly fine. The provocation of it all overwhelmed the fear Hu Ya felt about coming to Sinful Female Island.
’Damn it!’
At this moment, Hu Ya was filled with bitter resentment. Why hadn’t her own tormentors been punished when she was the one being tortured?
Yet here she was, suffering such severe consequences for merely thinking about teaching that black-haired female a lesson, without even touching a single hair on her head!
Hu Ya’s hatred was so intense it felt like her heart was being ripped out, a pain worse than death.
Just then, a figure appeared in the room, blocking the light and casting a shadow over Hu Ya. A gentle voice followed.
"Hu Ya? I’m Feng Si, the one who was attacked in the wilderness."
In that instant, a chill ran down the spine of the hate-fueled Hu Ya, making her scalp tingle. She lifted her red, swollen eyes—the result of excessive crying—and slowly looked at the female standing before her.
The clean, tidy, black-haired female stood opposite her. She was looking down, her eyes as dark as a starless night, staring unblinkingly at Hu Ya. Her crimson lips were curved into a faint smile, and she seemed as gentle and harmless as her voice, as if she were just visiting an acquaintance.
But Hu Ya felt as if she were seeing a ghost, a lump of pain stuck in her throat.
Her eyes, filled with hate, widened. She bared her teeth and shouted, "What are you doing here?! Came to laugh at me? Haha... or did you want to get your revenge personally?"
Feng Si’s expression was elegant and soft. She shook her head. "Neither."
She gave Hu Ya a pitying smile. "I’m not foolish enough to misidentify the real person who wanted to harm me and take my anger out on an accomplice."
’An—accomplice?’
’What does she mean?’
Hu Ya felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her head. She froze, as if trapped in a block of ice, unable to think any further.
Feng Si’s eyelashes lowered slightly, her pupils dark and round. Despite her commanding, condescending posture, her gaze held a sort of pity and sympathy one might reserve for a fool.
She asked, "You and I have never met. Why would you develop such hatred for a female you don’t even know? Did someone put you up to it?"
Hu Ya trembled, her gaze unfocused. An image of Feng Lian flashed through her mind.
’Why?’
’Of course it was because of my good friend, Feng Lian.’
’The only reason I went after Feng Si was because Feng Lian suddenly brought up how she had been bullied, striking the most hateful chord deep in my heart.’
"The person behind this is quite clever. Not only did she play you for a fool and make you take the fall for her, but even now, she has you thinking I’m the one who started it all?" Feng Si shook her head with a helpless smile.
Hu Ya remained silent, her body trembling even more violently with rage.
She didn’t need the female in front of her to say another word. Just by thinking back on the events of that day from beginning to end, she understood. She had been set up.
Set up by Feng Lian, the person she had considered her only friend since coming to Pantian City!
With one hand in her pocket, her fingers stroking the sleeping Yun Duo, Feng Si looked at the silent, head-bowed Hu Ya. She continued in a gentle, harmless tone:
"If you’re willing to suffer for someone else, I can’t say much. I only came here to get an answer. If you don’t want to talk, then forget it."
Feng Si looked at Hu Ya and sighed with regret. "I hear rest time is short here, so I won’t disturb your precious break. But let me leave you with one last thought: while you’re here suffering, she’s definitely out there living as carefree as ever."
Hu Ya’s face turned a ghastly shade of pale, and she blurted out, "It was Feng Lian! She deliberately provoked and guided me to attack you! Go and drag her here to join me!"
"I don’t know why she would want to harm you and me, but one cannot be convicted on your word alone," Feng Si said.
Hearing this, Hu Ya’s face turned ashen. She collapsed back into her seat, all hope lost.
"I’m the only one who’s suffered an undeserved disaster in this whole affair..." Seeing her pitiful state, Feng Si said with a twinge of sympathy, "How about this: I’ll issue a letter of forgiveness. Maybe you’ll have a chance to get out."
As predicted, the moment she finished speaking, hatred reignited in Hu Ya’s eyes. Only this time, it wasn’t directed at her, but at some point in the empty air, burning even more intensely than it had for Feng Si.
’Just needed to make things clear.’
Feng Si pulled her hood back up, hiding her face once more, and turned to leave. On her way out, she pulled the door to the one-room female prison cell shut.
Behind her, out of sight, Hu Ya bit her lip so hard it could have bled.
She understood everything now. She had let her guard down and told Feng Lian her entire past, never expecting it would become the knife Feng Lian used to stab her.
’Feng Lian.’
’I will crawl my way out of here by any means necessary. Even if my fertility is completely ruined, I will have my revenge! I will drag you to hell with me!’
Ying Kong, who was waiting at the door, saw Feng Si emerge. His sharp eagle eyes scanned her from top to bottom, and after confirming she was unharmed, he spoke urgently, "Are you done talking? Can you go back to Boman Gate Island now?"
Before Feng Si could reply, a voice came from behind the wooden door—it was Hu Ya, saying to bring over the High-level male beast that had gone into a mental frenzy.
The two guards were stunned. Just moments ago, she had been desperately crying and refusing. How had she come around so quickly?
Feng Si nodded at Ying Kong and walked toward the warship hovering in mid-air.
「On the warship.」
Ying Kong gave Feng Si a suspicious look. "You know she has an accomplice. Are you just going to let them go like that?"
Feng Si shrugged lightly. "Yep."
Her bright, moist eyes glanced at Ying Kong. "What kind of person do you take me for?"
Feng Si spoke with righteous conviction, "Even though I’m just a female with low-level fertility, I still know you’re not supposed to attack other females, you know? That’s a crime."
Ying Kong narrowed his eyes, forced to see Feng Si in a new light.
Feng Si continued, "Besides, I have enough coins to hire a High-level Beastman as a bodyguard. Even if they get out and want to harm me again, getting close to me is just a fantasy. And more importantly, isn’t it more exciting to watch my enemies tear each other apart than to get my own hands dirty?"
’Instead of all this ’you-hurt-me-I-hurt-you’ nonsense, I’d much rather spend my energy on making Money-making Coins.’
She sighed, "In any case, the lesson Hu Ya learned this time is tragic enough. I don’t want to add any more weight to her miserable life."
Ying Kong: "..."
Alright, then. Male beasts settled their grudges on the spot—it was a matter of life and death. They didn’t understand these convoluted schemes at all.
After escorting Feng Si back, Ying Kong felt a persistent unease. He thought it over and over, and finally decided he had to report this matter to the Beast King in full detail.
Ying Kong activated his communicator.
「At that moment.」
The elderly Great Sacrificial Rite, Ran Qi, beat Ying Kong to it, his trembling hands already dialing the King’s communicator.
The blood test for Lady Feng Si had come back. She wasn’t a sub-female as she had registered in Nantong City, but a Special-level Female!!
The first one in all of recorded history in the entire world—a female with 100% fertility!!
A hundred percent!!
Oh, Beast God, have you finally shown your divine power and blessed the South Desolate Continent?!
