Chapter 407: Mo Ran Prequel (Side Story 1)
Dragon God Continent.
Mo Ran sat there leisurely. In front of him was an illusion. In the mirror, the orcs of the tribe were kneeling devoutly, begging the Beast God to bless them with good weather and a prosperous tribe.
"Aran~"
A female figure with a sweet voice approached. It was none other than He Jiaojiao, the goddess of the underworld. She was clad in an inky dragon slough, and she exuded a maternal aura.
"Why don't you take a good rest and run out again?"
Mo Ran hurriedly stood up and went over to greet her, helping He Jiaojiao to sit aside.
He Jiaojiao smiled and touched her belly. "It's okay. There's still some time before the birth. Besides, if you move around more, maybe the birth will go more smoothly."
Mo Ran squatted down, put his ear to He Jiaojiao's belly, and spoke softly to the baby in her belly.
"It was very hard for Mom to carry you. You must not act naughty, otherwise Dad will definitely beat you when you are born."
Hearing Mo Ran say this, He Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing. She poked Mo Ran's forehead with her finger in annoyance, "How can you be a father like that? You're ready to beat your child before he's even born."
"Anyone who makes you uncomfortable will have to pay the price, no matter who it is, even if it's my child." Mo Ran said solemnly.
Seeing how serious Mo Ran was, He Jiaojiao could even imagine the kid he was chasing running around crying in the future.
As she spoke, He Jiaojiao glanced at the illusion and saw the high priest of the dragon clan kneeling there, leading everyone to kneel and pray.
"That's your mother's clan. Why don't we choose a holy female for the dragon clan this year? This way, the dragon clan can have more cubs." He Jiaojiao said.
Mo Ran responded softly. In fact, he didn’t care much about these things, but since it was what Jiaojiao wanted, he naturally had no objection.
He Jiaojiao carefully selected through the illusion, and finally her sights fell on a delicate female. Generally speaking, such a weak female would have few males in the tribe willing to mate with her.
Perhaps because she felt so pitiful, He Jiaojiao felt pity for her. She raised her hand and nodded, and the female was instantly enveloped by holy light, and the Holy Female Mark appeared on her forehead.
There was a sudden commotion in the magic mirror, and the little female was immediately surrounded by several males, all of whom expressed their desire to take care of her.
"My Jiaojiao is always different from other female goddesses. She cannot stand suffering."
Mo Ran said this, hugged He Jiaojiao and kissed her on the forehead.
"It's the same with my Ah Ran. If it weren't for you, I might have been sent to the female cave." He Jiaojiao chuckled, looked up and touched Mo Ran's face.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Then the two of them watched the blessing ceremonies of other tribes and chose the one that granted them the blessings they requested.
Everything was so beautiful, but someone came and broke this beauty.
"Mo Ran, you are too good to your believer. Every time they ask for something, you satisfy them. This will spoil them." Bai Yu, the beast god of the White Tiger Continent, suddenly appeared and walked towards them.
Mo Ran frowned slightly, "As the Beast God, isn't it my duty to work for the well-being of my people?"
Bai Yu chuckled, "But if you blindly satisfy them, they will think that they don't need to work hard, and that they can get something for nothing just by kneeling and bowing. Then the situation will become even more chaotic."
Bai Yu said as he walked over to the side and sat down. He picked up the fruit from the plate on the stone table and took a bite. Then he threw the fruit back onto the plate with some disgust. "As a beast god, this is what you eat?"
The gradual disdain in his tone made He Jiaojiao even more unhappy.
Mo Ran realized that He Jiaojiao didn't like Bai Yu, so he turned unhappy. "Why are you running to me when you can stay in your White Tiger Continent?"
Bai Yu glanced at He Jiaojiao calmly, then his gaze fell on Mo Ran. "Today is the beginning of spring. According to the rules, the beast gods from other continents must come to you. Have you forgotten?"
After being reminded by Bai Yu, Mo Ran seemed to remember that this was indeed the case.
There are four continents in the Beast World: the Dragon God Continent where Mo Ran is, the White Tiger Continent where Bai Yu is, and the Black Tortoise and Suzaku Continents. Mo Ran is the Dragon God, the leader of the four Beast Gods, and a being superior to the other three.
"Jiaojiao~"
A beautiful female walked over. She was wearing a light gauze and her graceful figure could be vaguely seen underneath the gauze.
"Ah Xi!"
He Jiaojiao stood up and went to greet him.
Ah Xi is Bai Yu's partner and the female goddess of the White Tiger Continent. She has a good relationship with He Jiaojiao.
"I heard you were pregnant, so I brought this specially for you."
As Ah Xi stretched out his hand, some red fruits immediately appeared in his palm. This was He Jiaojiao's favorite fruit. It was sour and sweet, and it was perfect for pregnant women.
"Thank you!"
He Jiaojiao waved her hand and put the red fruit into the space, then took Ah Xi's hand and said to Mo Ran, "I'll take Ah Xi to the garden to sit, you two can talk about business!"
Mo Ran was a little worried and reminded, "Be sure to pay attention to safety. If anything happens, be sure to call me."
Bai Yu looked at how clingy they were and couldn't help but tease, "You've been together for so many years, why are you still so clingy?"
"Ah Yu!" Ah Xi couldn't help but shout, as if he felt that Bai Yu's words were inappropriate. Bai Yu then pursed his lips and didn't continue.
He Jiaojiao gently pulled Ah Xi's hand, indicating that she didn't care, and then the two of them walked towards the garden.
In the garden, there are all kinds of flowers that He Jiaojiao has carefully cultivated over the years. They are colorful and beautiful. Every time Ah Xi sees them, he can't help but envy them.
"Jiaojiao, you are so clever and skillful. I can't get these."
He Jiaojiao chuckled, "If you like the flowers in this garden, you can pick some to take back."
Ah Xi waved his hand and said, "Forget it. You spent a lot of effort to cultivate these. If you give them to me, they might die in a short time. It's such a waste."
He Jiaojiao shook her head. "As long as it brings you pleasure, how can it be considered a waste?"
Ah Xi still shook his head, "I'll just come to visit you every year."
Seeing Ah Xi's insistence, He Jiaojiao didn't say anything more. After all, these things did take her and Mo Ran a lot of thought.
Not long after, the female goddesses from the other two continents also came over. The four females sat in the pavilion in the garden, eating various exquisite snacks made by He Jiaojiao and chatting. They were very comfortable.
Every year on the beginning of spring, the four beast gods would gather together. Although there was nothing important going on, this tradition had always existed.
Suddenly, there was a loud 'boom' from where Mo Ran was, startling the four females so much that they all stood up.
"what happened?"
He Jiaojiao was shocked.
In previous years, the Beast God and the God were together, but they never made such a big noise. This time it was obviously not normal.
