79. Reynolds Turns Into a Human


When Shu Shu crashed onto this planet, he suffered internal injuries to the extent that it made the child in his belly not stable. However, after going through so many days of self-cultivation, he was already fully recovered now, and the child in his belly was also quiet. The child had been growing relatively slowly, so Shu Shu's belly had not protruded until now.


The child was fine, and Edgar also woke up and was already able to cultivate himself. Shu Shu’s life had been very comfortable in the past few days. He had consumed a lot of spiritual power in his body in order to help Reynolds cultivate, but after he cultivated one time, the depleted spiritual power was quickly restored.


After that, Shu Shu began to deal with Edgar's scales and the child's eggshell.


The scales were too hard, and Shu Shu was simply unable to crumble them. The eggshell, on the contrary . . . . Shu Shu eventually used Edgar's scales to crumble the little snake's eggshell.


Seeing Shu Shu busying himself with the eggshell, Edgar, who had just coaxed the child to sleep, came over and used his tail to write a few words next to Shu Shu, "What’re you doing?"


"I want to get some eggshell powder for Reynolds to eat." Shu Shu replied. Recalling that Edgar was much smarter than himself, he moved closer to Edgar's side and told Edgar all his plans. Even the beast servant method was explained clearly.


Edgar previously thought that Shu Shu was going to help those fallen beasts by teaching them to cultivate. He did not expect that there was actually this kind of method as well . . . . He had to admit that he felt this method was more applicable for the current circumstances.


Changing from fallen beasts into humans by means of cultivation would make the lifespan of these beastmen become extraordinary long and also make them become very strong. And if these facts were known by other beastmen, many beastmen who originally had no problem with their beast cores might take the initiative to destroy their own beast cores and then went to cultivate. This was absolutely not a good thing for the Beastman Empire because the society might become unstable if there were many cultivating beastmen.


By comparison, the method Shu Shu had told him just now was actually better, and it was also easier to explain to the public. In addition, it would not make the beastmen with intact beasts cores envy these fallen beasts.


"This method is pretty good. We can study it together." Edgar wrote again.


Shu Shu was just hoping for Edgar to say so. After seeing Edgar’s reply, he beamed from ear to ear and immediately gave Edgar a detailed explanation. After he finished speaking, he stared at Edgar impatiently, waiting for Edgar to work out a solution.


Edgar, seeing Shu Shu’s appearance, somewhat wanted to smile. But he was a snake now and simply unable to show a smiling expression. Tail moving, he once again scratched out some words on the ground, "You go handle the eggshell powder that we’ll use first. I’ll help you think about what to do tomorrow."


"Alright!" Shu Shu smiled and nodded.


"There’s one more thing you must also think about. Our child doesn't have a name yet." After Edgar wrote down such a sentence, his tail stopped moving.


Shu Shu only remembered this matter after Edgar had reminded him. Yeah, his child still had no name!


Humankind was troublesome; everyone had to have a name. How could he come up with a name for the little snake in just a short time?


Hao Ran? Hao Xuan? Zi Xuan? Yu Xuan? Zi Rui? Zi Mo?


Although these were common names on the earth, but they were unique in the Beastman Empire, and their meanings were also good . . . . However, the language here was different from that on the earth, so these names were inconvenient to call. If he had to think up a name for the little snake in accordance with the language here . . . .


Shu Shu was caught unprepared somewhat.


Looking at the little snake, he really had an urge to call him "Ai Shu” (love the mouse) so that to remind him to love and protect hamsters at all times.


Frowning, Shu Shu mulled over the little snake’s name with mixed feelings. The little snake who had fallen asleep was sleeping deeply but then turned into a baby all of a sudden.


The forms of newborn beastman children were very unstable. Sometimes they were in their beast forms, and sometimes they would turn into human baby appearances . . . . Shu Shu was a little afraid of the child's beast form, but he was not a bit afraid of his baby form and even lost his heart when he saw this form.


With the round little cheeks, the meaty little hands, and the fair soft feet, the baby was really very cute! Shu Shu could not take care of anything else anymore. He went up and held the child in his arms—this child actually slept on a bed of weeds just like that, which was really too pitiful; he had to take good care of him!


The child had climbed up and down Edgar’s body until he was worn out, and now he was sleeping soundly. When he was picked up by Shu Shu, he did not even wake up; instead, he nuzzled up to Shu Shu with his little head . . . . Shu Shu touched his face with his fingers. He first kissed him on his forehead and then on both his cheeks, one by one, and finally on his tiny mouth, and he suddenly felt that his child was truly the cutest child in the world.



Shu Shu had a feeling of being perfectly contented as he very carefully held the child in his arms. Unfortunately, the child in his hand turned into a snake again after he had just held him for a while.


Shu Shu once again froze. Edgar glanced at Shu Shu and kindly swept up the snake in Shu Shu’s arms with his tail and placed him back on top of a piled-up grass on the side.


Shu Shu felt a little melancholy. He actually liked Edgar as well as the child very much. It was just that the instinct of hundreds of years always made him cannot help but feel uneasy . . . . Having such a thought, Shu Shu felt all the more guilty toward the child.


He found a soft bed quilt and a soft bath towel from among the stuff that those fallen beast gave him. He used the quilt to make a nest and had Edgar put the child into it. After that, he folded the bath towel a few times and then sewed it into a bag with needle and thread.


Shu Shu originally stole these needle and thread from a certain owner of his. After stealing them, he stuck the needle into a twig used for grinding his teeth, wound the thread around it, and then hid it inside his food pouch.


At that time, he hid a needle because he thought of using it as a weapon. He did not expect that he ultimately used it to sew things instead of taking it to be a weapon.


Having sewn a bag along with the strap, Shu Shu then hung the bag on his neck and turned toward Edgar, "What do you think of this bag? Just put the child into it, and he won’t be able to run all over the place!" The important thing was that the snake scales would not come across his body, and he also wouldn’t be too afraid.


The child was a beastman; how come he needed to be pampered so? Edgar was unsatisfied somehow, but in the end, he nevertheless wrote, "Hang it on my neck."


"Which is your neck? Where are you going to hang it?" Although Edgar had clawed feet now, but they were in the middle of his body. The bag would slide onto Edgar's belly once he hung it up . . . .


How can I have no neck? My neck is clearly very long! Edgar showed his own neck to Shu Shu and then lay down in a depressed mood.


The next day, the little snake was put into that bath towel bag, and then this bag was bitten by Edgar in one corner and taken along wherever he went.


Shu Shu still hadn’t selected a suitable name for the child, but the child got a pet name, which was Xiao Bao (little jewel/treasure). Xiao Bao was a newborn; although he could already eat a lot of food as a beastman, but he generally spent a large part of the day sleeping. Since being bundled up into the bag and taken along everywhere by Edgar, he even slept inside the bag in the nighttime.


The fallen beasts who saw this scene were somewhat baffled. This was a little beastman, right? Why was he still babied like this? When they were children, their fathers certainly never treated them this well. When they were a little bit bigger, they would be thrown out by their beastman fathers because like polarities repelled each other.


Of course, the treatment for sub-beastman children was entirely different. Their fathers usually saw, heard, and obeyed their darling sub-beastmen, and they absolutely wouldn’t drive out the sub-beastman babies even at night.


As for why they wanted to drive the babies out at night . . . . Wasn’t this in order to regenerate a sub-beastman baby?


Edgar strolled everywhere while carrying the little snake, but Shu Shu was already all set to feed Reynolds the prepared eggshell powder.


With regards to making Reynolds become a beast servant, he was still not one hundred percent sure. But, everything should be tried, shouldn’t it? Shu Shu quickly called Reynolds to his side.


"Have you found a method?" Reynolds' handwriting was extremely illegible.


"Yes!" Shu Shu nodded. "It may not necessarily succeed. You try it first." He and Edgar had discussed it several times last night, and now they already got a plan.


"Great! I’ll work hard." Reynolds nodded as he wrote.


"Edgar!" Shu Shu shouted.


Hearing Shu Shu’s voice, Edgar quickly came to Shu Shu’s side. Then he uncoiled his body and encircled Shu Shu and Reynolds. After the two men were circled, he did not do much besides closing his eyes and starting to cultivate.


Compared with Shu Shu, Edgar was simply a spiritual power absorbing machine. As soon as he started cultivating, all the spiritual power far and near rushed to his side, which lifted the spirits of Shu Shu and Reynolds, who were circled by him, and made them feel very comfortable.


Even the little snake inside the bag held by Edgar’s mouth opened his eyes and then, tail swinging, subconsciously began to absorb the spiritual power around him.



Edgar, who drew in spiritual power but did not absorb it, could practically be regarded as a spiritual power gathering tool, ah! Shu Shu sighed and took out some white powder for Reynolds, "Go on and eat it."


Reynolds was utterly unable to tell what this white powder was, but he still swallowed it down without the slightest hesitation. He had just swallowed it down, and Shu Shu already gave his head a pat. "Think of how you want to become a human!" After saying this, Shu Shu also guided his own spiritual power to flow through Reynolds' body.


After Reynolds gulped down the white powder, he felt his stomach burning hot, as if something was going to break out of his body. And he soon knew what that thing was. It was a ball of energy.


This energy seemed to be able to transform his body, yet what he was pursuing stubbornly here was not to transform his body but to become a human.


For a time, Reynolds’ mind had no other thoughts except for becoming a human. As that ball of spiritual power flew hither and thither in his body, it actually made various changes to take place in his muscles and bones.


Reynolds felt a bit strange. Right then, Shu Shu’s spiritual power also entered his body.


In the following time, Reynolds was somewhat muddle-headed, and only one thought was exceptionally strong—he wanted to become a human, and he had to become a human!


The energy in Reynolds' body was very abundant at first, but then it gradually became less. Shu Shu felt that his plan was most likely about to fail right away. But unexpectedly, this thought had just flashed through his mind, and Reynolds’ body in front of him suddenly shone with a layer of faint light.


The energy that disappeared within Reynolds’ body formed a tiny bead inside Reynolds' body. The bead was different from the beast core, and nor was it the same as nèidān, but it contained energy.


The big white wolf lying prone on the sandy ground suddenly became a human.


"It’s actually successful?" Shu Shu looked at Reynolds in amazement. It was his first attempt, and he did not dare to overdraw his spiritual power because there was a child in his belly. He originally thought that he would surely fail. He had not expected that he actually succeeded in the end.


He did not know why he could succeed . . . . Could it be because Reynolds used to change into a human form routinely and with ease?


Shu Shu was curious and stared at Reynolds with eyes opened wide. As a result, he had not yet seen Reynolds’ appearance clearly, and a snake tail suddenly stopped before his eyes and blocked his line of sight.


"Ah!" Shu Shu unconsciously screamed. After realizing that it was of course Edgar's tail, he felt endlessly guilty—he was really so useless; he actually got scared by Edgar again; Edgar would definitely feel deeply hurt.


Edgar also knew that he had probably scared Shu Shu, but he did not regret it at all. Using his tail to roll Shu Shu up, he ran at lightning speed and took Shu Shu far away—that guy Reynolds was stark naked; he simply couldn’t let Shu Shu see!


"Reynolds!" Shu Shu was taken away, but Jones immediately rushed toward Reynolds.


The fallen beasts were collectively stunned after seeing Reynolds’ huge change into a living person. They sobered up a bit when they heard Jones’ voice, but soon they were dumbfounded again.


Reynolds had turned into a human. That sub-beastman really found a method to make them turn into humans!


They . . . had a chance to live a normal life!


After being sluggish for a good while, a tiger roared loudly and abruptly ran away. After that, various kinds of fallen beasts all ran away.


"What’s up with them?" Shu Shu was rather puzzled.


"They’re probably too happy and too excited, so they want to go out of the way to vent their feelings." Ian said. At that time, when Chris knew that he had a child, he was also like this. He abruptly ran away and only returned after he had fought several people.


Those people ran away, but Reynolds did not. Rather, he threw Jones down and licked Jones' face incessantly. It did not matter if he licked Jones when he was just a wolf. Now that he had become a man, and a naked man at that, it seemed to be a little improper for him to do such a thing.


Jones held Reynolds and was excited beyond words. He wished he could hold Reynolds forever. However, after they hugged for a while, he felt that there was something a bit wrong.


That very hard thing bumping his own thigh was something that was impossible for Jones, a doctor, to not know. He leaned his head to one side and saw Ian nearby laughing while looking at him . . . .


Pushing the naked Reynolds away, Jones blushed, "Lecher!"


"That’s right, I’m a lecher." Covering his important bits, Reynolds admitted with a smile.
