Chapter 206 Beast Form and Human Form
The transformation of the flamingo chicks went smoothly, and within five days, all ten chicks successfully transformed.
Unlike the cubs of the Ink Serpent tribe who underwent human transformation, the Ink Serpent cubs, apart from a few inheriting the dark red eyes of the serpent ink, showed almost no trace of their beastly form. But the Flamingo cubs...
Helpless, Chu Xinyao cut a hole at the shoulder of the six little girls' dresses.
The flamingo chicks were quite beautiful, but Chu Xinyao was somewhat surprised by the wings on their backs that couldn't be retracted.
I heard He Yu say that besides being afraid of the cold, the first thing a red crane chick does after it has transformed into human form is that its wings can only be retracted freely a year later.
"What about the white tiger cubs and the merfolk? And the fox cubs?"
Her sudden digression startled He Yu. "What's wrong with them?"
"Oh, what I mean is, don't orcs retain some animal characteristics when they are young? I've noticed that, apart from the occasional tongue turning into a snake's forked tongue, I haven't seen any other characteristics that Snake Yi and the others retain! And you mentioned that the flamingo chicks also retract their wings after a year, so they don't have any other distinguishing features!"
Chu Xinyao chatted with He Yu while flipping through the feather skirt in her hand.
Tsuruha smiled first, then grabbed Tsuruichi, who had just changed his clothes and was trying to run away.
Holding He Yi in her arms, she brushed aside his slightly curly short hair, revealing his slender neck. "Here."
Chu Xinyao looked closely and found nothing different. She looked up at him, her eyes conveying a clear message: Are you kidding me?
He Yu smiled and said, "He Yi and He Er Er have gold-level aptitude, which may not be obvious now, but you can take a look at He San." He pointed to He San, who was waiting to change clothes on the bed.
Just then, Chu Xinyao finished changing He Er'er's clothes and let her play on the side. She reached out to He San and said, "Come here, little He San, Mommy's here."
He San obediently snuggled into his mother's arms. After Chu Xinyao changed him into thicker clothes, she let him lie quietly on her lap. After brushing aside his curly hair, Chu Xinyao discovered that there was a patch of fine downy hair on the back of his neck.
"They are still small now, but as they grow older, these downy hairs will gradually grow into feathers."
Chu Xinyao gently stroked the fluffy feathers, her eyes full of affection. He San seemed to enjoy the caress as well. The delicate boy smiled and lay comfortably on Chu Xinyao's lap, his little hands fiddling with the feathered clothes on his body.
He Yu patted He Yi on the shoulder, telling him to take his younger sister and brother to play nearby.
"As for the white tiger cubs you just asked about, they will retain their animal ears until they reach adulthood."
"Animal ears? Furry animal ears? That's so cute!"
"Mermaids are quite obvious; they have fish tails, and they can't leave the sea before the age of 10, but after 10 they can leave the sea for short periods. You should know that, right?"
Chu Xinyao nodded, giving an embarrassed smile. Could she say that she only knew a little bit about it?
He Yu affectionately ruffled her hair and smiled, "It's okay. After we go back, we'll never be apart again. I'll let you accompany the cubs through every important moment of their lives, okay?"
"Ok!"
In the treehouse bathed in sunlight, Chu Xinyao and He Yu smiled at each other, the air filled with warmth and sweetness.
However, the couple's tender gazes didn't last long before a new situation arose.
The youngest, He Shi, was probably too excited and was jumping around on the bed. The blanket wrapped around him was too long, and as he jumped, he accidentally stepped on it. He lost his balance and fell against the headboard, bumping his forehead and getting a big bump.
"Waaaaah, chirp chirp." Crane Ten cried pitifully, still using the habitual chirp since he had just transformed.
Chu Xinyao quickly went to hug him, her movements gentle, afraid of hurting him again. Seeing that there was no bleeding on his forehead, she gently rubbed the red and swollen area: "Oh, baby, don't cry, the pain is flying away, the pain is flying away!"
He Yu was also hearing Chu Xinyao say this for the first time, and he watched with great interest, his smile never fading.
Feeling comforted by Chu Xinyao's care, He Shi felt a surge of contentment. Even though he had hurt himself from the fall, being gently comforted by his mother in her arms made it all worthwhile.
Once He Shi stopped crying, Chu Xinyao held him for a while longer before changing him into thicker clothes and letting him play nearby.
This time, Chu Xinyao didn't waste any time and quickly changed all the cubs' clothes. Then, Chu Xinyao turned to He Yu and said, "Yu, I've been wanting to ask you, when are you planning to officially name the cubs?"
"A formal name?" He Yu found it strange. Are there any names that aren't formal?
"Yes!" Chu Xinyao frowned slightly. Did this person really not find these names a little awkward?
“You wouldn’t,” she sat up straight and said seriously, “really think that boys are just numbers and that girls’ numbers sound nice when they’re reduplicated?”
"Doesn't it sound nice?" He named it the same way Chu Xinyao named the black snake cubs, but he made some changes!
"You, I..." Chu Xinyao choked, thought seriously for a moment, and then changed her words, "If He Yiyi hadn't already found her partner, I would really have thought that you still had feelings for her, so you named the child He Er'er to commemorate her..."
Before she could finish speaking, He Yu had already knelt down in a magnificent display.
"What are you doing!"
"I swear to the Beast God, I have always regarded He Yiyi as a younger sister, and I have never had any other thoughts. I am devoted to you and have no other intentions. I will change it, I will change it right away." He Yu said that he would change the name immediately, and he was determined not to let Chu Xinyao misunderstand him.
"Alright, get up. Get your things ready, let's go downstairs!"
Five days later, Hai Xing finally saw Chu Xinyao, whom he had been longing to see. He gazed at her intently and murmured, "Sister."
Over the past five days, Chu Xinyao had prepared herself mentally and also received a letter from Long Yuan sent by She Mo.
The Hai brothers cannot be considered her beast husbands. Well, not exactly. It means that if possible, they can simply bear her cubs without taking the title of her beast husband.
This shocked Chu Xinyao once again. She wouldn't be so surprised if native beastmen like Shemo, Heyu, and Huxiao came up with such a method, but this thing actually came from Longyuan, which is from the same place as her.
She suddenly couldn't understand it. Could it be that a century of time had truly eroded his modern way of thinking?
She still felt fortunate that she had many cubs, and that they all wanted to ride in the same vehicle with her. Just as she was about to get in the vehicle, Haiyu, who had never spoken to her before, said a few words to her.
Before getting into the car, Chu Xinyao looked at Hai Xing next to the car in front of her. The spirited young man she had met earlier was now dejected because of her rejection.
She sighed and made a decision in her heart.
