I Transmigrated as a Villainess to Raise Babies, and My Beast Husbands Are Fighting Madly Over Me!

Qiao Xixi lazily opened her eyes and snuggled deeper into Jin Ling’s embrace.

Feiyan had insisted on moving in, but their house was too small. Qiao Xixi’s bed could hardly accommodate another large male, so she simply took turns sleeping in Jin Ling’s and Sunxiao’s rooms.

During the cold season, however, she still preferred sleeping with Jin Ling. He was just so warm.

"DING-DONG."

"Please have the host ensure all the cubs’ Beast Souls reach 3-stars and successfully hunt ten Mutant Beasts. Mission difficulty: 1 out of 5 stars."

Qiao Xixi rolled over, now wide awake.

"You’ve said before that a beastman with an Awakened Beast Soul can raise their star level just by absorbing the power of Crystal Stones, right?"

"Yes, Host."

"Then with all these Crystal Stones in my storage space, can I just give them all to Jin Ling and the cubs to level them up quickly?"

Little Yao quickly replied, "No way, Host! Leveling up continuously in a short period of time would be too much for the bodies of the cubs or even Jin Ling and the others to handle. That’s why this mission has no time limit—it’s meant to be done slowly."

"I get it."

"Host, you should be able to tell that this mission is to help you prepare for the journey to the Hopeless Abyss!"

Qiao Xixi sneered, "Heh, who knows what kind of crooked scheme you’re plotting this time."

"Er... Host, you’re wronging me... Waaah..."

Qiao Xixi automatically tuned out the noisy Little Yao.

Qiao Xixi rolled over and burrowed into Jin Ling’s arms. ’On such a cold day, I really don’t want to get out of bed.’

"Awake?" Jin Ling’s low, husky voice sounded from above her head.

Qiao Xixi gave a lazy hum.

"If you don’t want to get up, you can sleep a little longer."

"Mhm, I’ll just laze around for a little bit."

Qiao Xixi did want to sleep a little longer, but soon, she felt something hot rubbing against her body. She knew right away that her chance to sleep in was gone.

"Jin Ling, I’m hungry."

Jin Ling froze. He took a deep breath to suppress the fire she had stirred up in him. "Alright, I’ll go make breakfast."

When Qiao Xixi, now fully dressed, walked outside, she was met with a resentful glare.

Feiyan was staring as if he could burn a hole right through her. Qiao Xixi smiled and walked up to him. "What’s wrong? Didn’t sleep well last night?"

Feiyan let out a mournful huff. "No."

"If you really can’t sleep well, why don’t you move back?"

Feiyan gritted his teeth. "I’m not moving. I like sleeping with the cubs."

Qiao Ang and Qiao Qiao came out, rubbing their eyes. As soon as they saw Qiao Xixi, they rushed over to hug her legs.

"Mother, we don’t want to sleep with Father! Can you sleep with us tonight, please?"

Qiao Xixi crouched down and looked at their tired little faces, puzzled. "What’s the matter?"

Qiao Ang huffed, "Father sleeps so terribly! He hogs the whole bed."

"Yeah, and he put his hand on my face! It was horrible."

Feiyan quickly covered the cub’s mouth. "My dear cubs, that was just your father’s loving caress. You must be hungry. Father will go help with breakfast."

After breakfast, Qiao Xixi took all the Crystal Stones from her storage space and placed them on the table. She also told them about the mission the system had issued.

"This mission... can we complete it?"

Feiyan was astonished by the Crystal Stones on the table and even more shocked by the ’system’ Qiao Xixi mentioned.

But before he could ask, Qiao Xixi patiently explained everything to him, and the look in Feiyan’s eyes changed completely.

Jin Ling looked at the Crystal Stones and said, "Getting the cubs to 3-stars shouldn’t be a problem. That star level is just what their bodies can handle."

Feiyan also nodded. "That’s right."

"Since it’s decided, let’s start taking turns training the cubs from today onward." Even after leveling up, they still needed to learn combat skills to better utilize their power.

"Okay."

Feiyan and the others selected suitable Crystal Stones for Qiao Lie and Qiao Ang. Feiyan and Sunxiao took them to absorb the energy, while Jin Ling also chose a few lower-level Crystal Stones to absorb himself.

Throughout the entire cold season, the beastmen of the Silver Tribe could see Feiyan and the others training the three cubs within the tribe. When the weather was good, they would even take them outside the tribe’s grounds.

The cubs’ combat prowess grew stronger by the day. Even Qiao Xixi was trying to find ways to improve her own fighting ability. ’If I can’t win a fight,’ she thought, ’I at least need to be able to run away.’

After the cold season reached its lowest point, the temperature began to slowly rise again. The ice and frost on the once-frozen streams started to melt.

With the weather warming up, Qiao Xixi took the rare opportunity to leave her courtyard. Today, she needed to give some things to the Clan Leader.

Feili had just stepped out of his house when he saw Qiao Xixi. "Xixi, what are you doing here? Come inside, quickly. It’s cold out."

Qiao Xixi followed Feili inside and placed a beast-hide bag on the table.

"Clan Leader, the cold season will be over soon. After discussing it, we’ve decided to travel together to the Hopeless Abyss. This is a thank-you gift for all the trouble we’ve caused the Silver Tribe for so many days. Please accept it."

Feili knew they were leaving. He sighed and didn’t try to persuade them to stay any longer.

"Xixi, you all have helped the Silver Tribe a great deal as well. And you gave Feiyan two clever and capable cubs. So there’s no need for a gift. I’m the one who should be thanking you."

"If it were anything else, that might be fine, but you must accept this, Clan Leader." Qiao Xixi opened the beast-hide bag, revealing Bubble Fruits inside.

"What is this?"

Qiao Xixi picked up a Bubble Fruit and walked outside. "This is an exploding Bubble Fruit. I want to leave them for you, Clan Leader, as a weapon to protect the tribe."

After speaking, she threw the Bubble Fruit. With a "BOOM," a tree was blasted apart and came crashing down.

Feili’s eyes went wide with shock, finding it hard to believe.

"Th-where did this fruit come from? How is it so powerful?"

Qiao Xixi couldn’t very well say she grew it in her storage space, so she just said she had stumbled upon it by chance.

Feili simply couldn’t refuse the Bubble Fruits. "You’re giving them to me, but do you still have some for yourselves?"

"Yes, we have plenty more."

"That’s good, then."

"Well, Clan Leader, I’ll be heading back now."

"Xixi."

Qiao Xixi turned back, puzzled. "Hm?"

Feili was wringing his hands, looking a bit embarrassed, but he gazed at her expectantly. "Xixi, could you call me ’Father’ just once?"

Qiao Xixi was taken aback for a moment, but her expression quickly softened. "Father, you must take good care of yourself. We will definitely come back to see you."

Feili’s eyes reddened, and he nodded, his voice thick with emotion. "Yes, yes, of course."

"DING-DONG."

"Congratulations, Host. Mission complete. Points have been awarded."

"Points have been deducted."

"Host, you have now paid back all your points."

Qiao Xixi looked at the green shoots sprouting on the trees, her gaze gradually becoming firm and determined.

Qiao Xixi opened her courtyard gate and saw Jin Ling and the others returning with the cubs in the distance.

Over the entire cold season, Qiao Ang and Qiao Lie had reached 3-stars, and Qiao Qiao had learned many offensive and defensive skills. Jin Ling and Feiyan had also leveled up, now possessing a 6-star and 7-star Beast Soul, respectively.

And now, they were about to leave the tribe.
