CHAPTER 400: CHAPTER 391 HAN SHUANG’S USELESS APOLOGY_1

Amidst the howling winds, two Golden Dragons soared up from the base of the cliff.

Han Shuang was a complete mess. She collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air, then couldn’t stop retching.

The Jin Yao she had cherished for so many years actually wanted to kill her. Really wanted to kill her! A viciousness surged in her heart. Jin Yao, she truly deserved to die.

Jin Ting stepped forward, bent down, and said something to Han Shuang.

Soon, Han Shuang’s face turned pale, and she vomited even more violently.

Si Yan glanced over, then turned to leave.

"Wait!" Han Shuang called out to Si Yan.

Si Yan seemed not to have heard and continued walking forward.

Han Shuang’s complexion was terrible. She struggled to her feet and ran a few steps, chasing after Si Yan.

"Si Yan! Si Yan! My cub!"

Si Yan suddenly stopped and turned around indifferently.

Jin Ting and the other Golden Dragon Beastmen followed behind the two Dragon Princesses, matching their pace, not daring to interrupt.

"...I’m sorry. Mother has wronged you," Han Shuang said, trembling. "I know I was wrong. I’m sorry. I truly regret it."

"Forgive me. Please forgive me, alright?"

Si Yan’s distinct black and white eyes stared at her coldly. There was no hatred in them, only indifference.

And this indifferent gaze deeply pierced Han Shuang’s heart.

"My cub, Mother truly regrets it! It’s all Jin Yao! It’s all that Jin Yao’s fault! She bewitched me and drove a wedge between us mother and daughter. Jin Yao is dead now, so no one will ever come between our mother-daughter bond again. Please forgive Mother. Mother is begging you like this. Please forgive Mother, alright?"

Si Yan said indifferently, "Jin Yao was right about one thing. When you let her take my name and identity, she too was just a newborn cub."

"Han Shuang, you were the one who made the decision."

Han Shuang argued desperately, "No! It wasn’t like that! It wasn’t me! It was the Black Priest! The Black Priest confused me! That’s why I accepted Jin Yao and let her take your name and identity!"

Han Shuang tried to move forward and grab Si Yan, but Si Yan stepped back slightly, avoiding her touch.

A thick layer of hurt surfaced in Han Shuang’s eyes once more. "My cub, Mother was wrong. Please forgive Mother."

"If apologies were useful, what would be the need for retribution?" Si Yan stated.

"Han Shuang, you never cared about me, and I never received any upbringing from you. The bond of birth between us has been completely eroded by these repeated events. There is nothing between us."

"How could that be? I am your mother, your birth mother! How could there be no relationship? How could there not be!" Han Shuang cried.

Si Yan stared at her coldly, a gaze so intense it made Han Shuang’s very soul ache.

At this moment, Han Shuang finally understood. Si Yan truly didn’t care about her. Si Yan wanted nothing to do with her.

"My cub, Mother regrets it. Mother truly regrets it."

"Mother will be good to you. Mother will always be good to you from now on."

"Please, I beg you, just look at Mother one more time, alright?"

She regretted it. She regretted it so, so much.

Si Yan was already feeling impatient.

Ming Ji opportunely appeared by Si Yan’s side, helping her out by saying, "Xiao Yan, I’ve cleared the zombie virus here."

Si Yan nodded. "Good."

Ignoring the sobbing Han Shuang, Si Yan walked towards the tree hollow.

Ming Ji said, "The appearance of Shi Bo indicates that zombies have already emerged in Beast World. The invasion of Beast World by the zombie virus is now foreseeable."

Si Yan nodded. "Will Beast World become a second Earth?"

Ming Ji turned his head to look at her. "Xiao Yan, fifty thousand survivors remain on Earth, still striving to live."

Si Yan looked at Ming Ji in surprise.

Ming Ji continued, "We must also strive to live."

Si Yan nodded.

As she walked, she said to Xiao Chuan Chuan and Xiao Cheng Cheng, "Didn’t you mention a Teleportation Formation that can only transport creatures of Beast World?"

Xiao Cheng Cheng immediately replied, "Yes, Mother."

Si Yan nodded. "Good. I also need a great protective Formation, preferably one that only Beast World creatures can pass through smoothly. Is there such a Formation?"

Xiao Cheng Cheng’s scroll immediately unfurled. "There is, Mother," he said. "But it requires many materials."

Si Yan nodded. "Hmm, let me take a look first."

Soon, Xiao Cheng Cheng presented the Formation and the required materials to Si Yan.

While examining the materials, Si Yan remarked, "The required materials are indeed quite numerous. I can seek contributions from the Golden Dragon Tribe and Myriad Beasts City."

Upon reaching the Divine Tree’s hollow, Tai Seng, who was protecting the young cubs, approached Si Yan. He carried the Dragon Eggs and was accompanied by the four cubs.

In a daze, Jin Qian saw the gold and purple Dragon Eggs in Tai Seng’s arms. He stared blankly for a few seconds, then fell into deep thought.

A short while later, his eyes lit up, and he asked Jin Ting, "Are Little Six’s two dragon cubs still alive?"

Recalling how he had previously fooled Jin Qian, Jin Ting coughed awkwardly. Feeling guilty, he looked towards the horizon and said, "Yeah."

Jin Qian exclaimed excitedly, "That’s wonderful! It’s truly wonderful that Little Six’s dragon cubs are still alive!"

Jin Yang and his brothers looked at their second brother, who had been so pitifully deceived. It turned out they weren’t the most miserable ones; their second brother was. Suddenly, they felt a sense of balance.

Si Yan discussed matters with the Beastmen of the Golden Dragon Clan.

She patiently explained Shi Bo’s situation and the impending crisis Beast World would face.

The Priests of the Golden Dragon Clan initially suppressed their excitement and respect, their eyes gleaming with reverence.

Then, the Priests’ expressions immediately turned serious.

The Golden Dragon Tribe was indeed the wealthiest in Beast World. When Si Yan listed the materials she needed, its Beastmen eagerly chimed in one after another.

"I know that one!"

"The tribe has that tree vine!"

"We have Black Zhi Wood too!"

"Oh, and we have all of those as well!"

Lai Lao said, "Dragon Princess, rest assured. After the hurricane ends, I will lead the tribe members to prepare everything you need at the earliest opportunity."

Si Yan nodded. "Good."

Si Yan said, "I have observed that the Golden Dragon Tribe is situated in an idyllic sanctuary, difficult for the outside world to find. Isolated as it is, it’s indeed an excellent place of refuge. After the hurricane ends, I will establish multiple Teleportation Formations in Beast World. This area, where the Golden Dragon Tribe is located, will become one of Beast World’s sanctuaries."

The faces of many Golden Dragon Beastmen changed drastically. "Make the Golden Dragon Tribe a sanctuary for Beast World? Doesn’t that mean many foreign Beastmen will come to our tribe?"

"I disagree!" exclaimed one Golden Dragon Beastman. "Our tribe has been peaceful for so many years. How can we allow so many outsiders to crowd in? How will we ourselves survive then?

"Exactly! Our things weren’t obtained casually. We built and cultivated them through hard work. Why should outsiders be allowed to come in and occupy our land?!"

The Dragon Clan loved large territories, and an excess of foreign Beastmen would indeed disturb their peace.

Suddenly, Han Shuang shrieked, "Is Si Yan the Dragon Princess, or are you?! How dare you oppose the Dragon Princess? Where do you get such audacity!"

The young Golden Dragon, Chang Sheng, spoke up. "A great calamity looms over Beast World, yet you all still only think of yourselves? As the most powerful clan in Beast World, do you feel no shame for not stepping forward to protect it?!"
