Stone Age Husband Raising Journal

Chapter 122 – Becoming a Beast King

Xiong Ye liked to listen when the priest told stories. And among the many stories that the priest told, there were stories about the Beast God Fruit.

It was said that in this world, there was a kind of magical fruit that could turn ordinary beastmen into Beast Kings.

When Xiong Ye heard this story, he hadn’t even known what a Beast King was. Yet he still remembered this magical thing called the Beast God Fruit.

Now... Zhou Ji was saying that the stalk of grass in front of him was a Beast God Fruit?

Xiong Ye was a little confused. “This is the Beast God Fruit? Are you sure?”

Zhou Ji replied, “Sure.”

“Beast God Fruit?” Zhu Zhan and the others saw that something was going on and also came over. Seeing the grass held in Zhou Ji’s hands, Zhu Zhan’s face was full of disbelief––this stalk of grass was a Beast God Fruit? How could that be!

“This is a Beast God Fruit. It can allow people to become Beast Kings.” Zhou Ji said. “Xiong Ye, this is for you.”

Zhou Ji’s words were full of confidence. Xiong Ye knew that there was no reason for Zhou Ji to lie to him, which meant that this stalk of grass really was a Beast God Fruit.

Shouldn’t the Beast God Fruit be a fruit? Why was it a small piece of grass? Xiong Ye was a bit confused inside, but at the same time, he said, “I don’t want it. You should have it.”

Good things like the Beast God Fruit should be given to Zhou Ji to eat.

“It’s useless for me to eat it. On the other hand, if you eat it and become stronger, you’ll be able to protect me.” Zhou Ji smiled and said.

“But you’re the one who found it!” Xiong Ye frowned.

“I don’t need to eat it.” Zhou Ji said, “I went and obtained it for you.”

Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji both refused it for the sake of the other party, and to the side, Zhu Zhan and the others had very complicated expressions on their faces.

This was a Beast God Fruit! It was a treasure that allowed people to become Beast Kings!

People would normally hide it away if they found one, then secretly eat it on their own. Who would act like Zhou Ji and bring it back out in the open, then debate over who would have it with Xiong Ye?

Was he not afraid that others would snatch away his Beast God Fruit?

Fine, nobody could snatch it away... A Beast King like Hai Feng had already submitted to Zhou Ji; who else had the ability to steal something from Zhou Ji’s hands?

Xiong Ye’s luck was really too good.

Zhu Zhan was in the midst of feeling envious of Xiong Ye when Zhou Ji suddenly turned to ask him, “Zhu Zhan, how should a Beast God Fruit be eaten?”

Zhou Ji didn’t know anything about how to use a Beast God Fruit. The people of the Big Bear Tribe and Hai Feng also didn’t know, but maybe Zhu Zhan would know?

Zhu Zhan said, “It’s eaten directly.”

“The amount of energy in the Beast God Fruit is too much to be eaten directly. It will be harmful.” Zhou Ji frowned.

However, this hadn’t happened to many people.

Beast God Fruits were all in hidden, secret places, and those who could find them were usually Beast Kings or high level Beast Warriors.

Zhou Ji listened to Zhu Zhan’s words and pondered for a while before looking towards Xiong Ye. “Xiong Ye, this stalk of grass contains very powerful energy. Eating it directly will be very painful for you...”

“I’m not afraid of suffering, but you...” Xiong Ye frowned as well. He wasn’t afraid of pain, but the stalk of grass was too precious...

“In that case, just eat it.” Zhou Ji spoke, then directly stuffed the grass into Xiong Ye’s mouth.

Now that the decision to eat it had been made, he should eat it as soon as possible in order to avoid overthinking it.

A moment of inattentiveness on Xiong Ye’s part resulted in a stalk of grass getting stuffed into his mouth. The grass soon melted into his mouth, leaving only a faint grassy green taste.

Immediately after that, he sensed a huge amount of energy appear within him, bursting out of his body and causing pain to shoot everywhere throughout his body.

Xiong Ye’s legs went soft, and then he felt that he was being held. At the same time, a wave of energy came through the hand that Zhou Ji was using to hold him, entered his body, and began to help him sort out the chaotic energy trapped in his body.

There was too much energy within his body, and it was really painful. Xiong Ye found it difficult to hold on and wanted to cry out in pain, but he soon thought of how Zhou Ji looked when he went crazy and had turned into his animal form.

Zhou Ji had had more energy within his body than he did now, but nobody had helped him. He had even gone into a mad frenzy, and it must have been more difficult for him, but Zhou Ji had managed to bear with it.

He couldn’t just give up.

With that in mind, Xiong Ye endured the pain and began to absorb the energy that was in his body.

His muscles, blood vessels, and bones were all damaged by the energy rioting within his body, but there was soon more energy rushing in to repair it all. Between this repeated process of damage and repair, he felt that he had attained a more powerful level of strength.

Of course, the biggest change was that the energy in his body that belonged to him kept increasing.

Zhou Ji’s actions when he fed the Beast God Fruit to Xiong Ye were so sudden that Xiong Ye had already eaten the stalk of grass even before everyone around them could react.

After that... They inexplicably felt that the aura emanating from Xiong Ye was very terrifying, and they were all frightened.

Zhu Zhan looked enviously at Xiong Ye. If he could obtain a Beast God Fruit, he would be able to become a Beast King and kill his way back home!

One-Eyed Wolf, who had been injured by Zhu Zhan and had a face that was swollen up like a pig’s head, had jealousy mixed with envy in her gaze, but there was also incredulity.

One-Eyed Wolf really didn’t quite dare to believe it.

Before, when Zhou Ji and Hai Feng had been fighting, she had felt pity for Xiong Ye, believing that Xiong Ye had been toyed with, but Zhou Ji had come back, and his attitude towards Xiong Ye had been the same as always, to the point where he still made food for Xiong Ye.

At that time, she had discovered that the things she had said weren’t based in reality.

Zhou Ji was so powerful. Did he really need to do so much just for the sake of toying with Xiong Ye?

Now, watching as Zhou Ji unhesitatingly gave the Beast God Fruit to Xiong Ye, she felt even more that she had confirmed one thing––Zhou Ji was genuine about his feelings for Xiong Ye.

One-Eyed Wolf felt a sour feeling in her heart. How could she have encountered such a scum man back then?

In contrast, the people of the Big Bear Tribe were relatively calm. Although they knew that the Beast God Fruit was very precious, they didn’t understand anything about this thing. Someone even asked, “What exactly is a Beast God Fruit? Wasn’t that a stalk of grass?”

Zhu Zhan heard these words and gave that person an indescribable look, “The Beast God Fruit is just a way of calling it... It’s a plant that can allow people to become Beast Kings.”

“Can you really become a Beast King with it?” These people were surprised.

“Really. Beastmen will become as strong as he is after eating it.” Zhu Zhan pointed towards Hai Feng who was off to the side.

After eating a huge sea monster, Hai Feng was finally full and let out a burp. He laughed awkwardly and looked particularly loyal and honest, but nobody here dared to look down on him.

His animal form was was so large. He could crush most of them to death by simply turning into his animal form. There was no need for him to do anything else.

“It’s great that the chief can become so strong!”

“Is a Beast King really going to show up in our tribe?”

“Zhou Ji is already a Beast King. Our tribe is going to have two Beast Kings!”

......

The people of the Big Bear Tribe all began to cheer.

By this time, Xiong Ye had already absorbed a lot of energy. He felt that he was getting stronger and stronger, and could even sense that he had a crystal core within his body.

Of course, pain was inevitable along with the increase in strength, but he didn’t show any of it.

He didn’t want Zhou Ji to worry.

Xiong Ye worked really hard, but he was still unable to absorb all of the energy from the Beast God Fruit.

Zhou Ji helped him, sending the energy that he couldn’t absorb outside his body.

The people sitting around Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji all felt refreshed and revitalized from being able to absorb that excess energy.

“I never thought that I would be able to witness the birth of a Beast King.” One-Eyed Wolf said.

Zhu Zhan glanced at One-Eyed Wolf and then ignored her.

He had kept One-Eyed Wolf around before because he wanted One-Eyed Wolf’s help to cross the river.

But it was unnecessary now.

Zhu Zhan had completely lost interest in One-Eyed Wolf.

“That Zhou Ji is really amazing... Something like a Beast God Fruit can help even Beast Kings increase their strength. He actually chose not to eat it and gave it to someone else.” One-Eyed Wolf continued.

“You should concern yourself less with other people’s affairs. Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye are both good people, which is why they didn’t do much to you, but if you continue on like this and refuse to change, there might come a day when you’re killed off by someone in a moment of carelessness.” Zhu Zhan said.

He felt that Zhou Ji was really too kind for not killing One-Eyed Wolf––this woman was really too blind to the truth and even tried to attack such powerful people.

One-Eyed Wolf closed her mouth and stopped talking.

In fact, she also understood the truth. The things she had said before had mostly been because she couldn’t come to terms with her past.

As for now... She also wanted to go back and get revenge, and needed to rely on Zhou Ji and the others. As things were, she didn’t dare to offend these people any further no matter what.

Everyone waited for a long time before Zhou Ji finally let go of Xiong Ye.

Zhou Ji appeared to be just the same as usual. On the other hand, Xiong Ye had his eyes closed, and it seemed that he’d... fallen asleep?

Xiong Qi began, “Xiong Ye is now...”

“He’s become a Beast King.”

Xiong Qi was very excited, “Xiong Ye is really amazing. He became a Beast King at such a young age! Of course, you’re even more amazing...”

Xiong Qi said a few more phrases of flattery, then offered, “I’ll bring Xiong Ye back?”

Xiong Ye was now sleeping very well, and it wouldn’t be good to wake him up. In that case, wasn’t it necessary to carry him back?

“No need.” Zhou Ji said. After saying so, he picked up Xiong Ye on his own.

The people of the Big Bear Tribe: “......” In the past, they had only ever seen Xiong Ye lifting and carrying Zhou Ji. Now that it was Zhou Ji carrying Xiong Ye... This scene seemed a little strange.

Zhou Ji carried Xiong Ye to the place where the two of them normally rested, then cuddled Xiong Ye and went to sleep.

The last few days had been quite chaotic, and he was a bit tired, too.

The sky had turned dark, so everyone in the camp went off to sleep. Only a few watchmen were left sitting by the fire, occasionally fiddling with it and adding firewood when necessary.

This was the scene that Xiong Ye woke up to. When he woke up, he felt that the world had become completely different.

His body was filled with powerful energy, and even though he had spent a long time learning to control energy, he still felt that it wasn’t easy to get a handle on... Xiong Ye was careless for a moment, and accidentally broke a piece of wood that was stuck into the ground next to him.

A corner of his and Zhou Ji’s animal hide tent suddenly collapsed.

He had become a Beast King. He’d become a very, very powerful Beast King.

He would definitely be able to protect Zhou Ji and make sure that Zhou Ji never had to kill!

Xiong Ye’s mood was suddenly filled with indescribable excitement. He immediately kissed Zhou Ji on the mouth, and then he was pressed down onto the ground as Zhou Ji flipped over.
