Billionaire’s Journey into the Beast World, Suitors Compete to Be Fed by Her! - Chapter 83

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two months had passed.

Mi Yue’s belly had grown noticeably large, and it was clear that the time for childbirth was approaching.

Elfman watched as Mi Yue’s belly grew day by day, growing more and more eager for the arrival of their cub.

However, he couldn’t help but feel a little worried. He had heard that childbirth was not an easy process for females, and he didn’t want anything unexpected to happen to Mi Yue during it.

But as fate would have it, the very thing he feared came to pass.

That afternoon, Mi Yue suddenly began experiencing intense pain in her abdomen. There was no doubt, it was time.

Elfman, facing such a situation for the first time, had no idea what to do. An ominous premonition gnawed at his heart.

Mi Yue was drenched in sweat, crying out in agony again and again.

“It hurts… my stomach hurts so much…”

“I-I think I’m going to die from the pain…”

“Elfman… it hurts… it hurts so much…”

Each cry from her shattered Elfman’s heart.

“What can I do? What should I do right now?” Elfman gripped Mi Yue’s hand tightly.

There was little he could do to assist in the birth itself, so he could only stay by her side as much as possible.

“Elfman… I-I can’t give birth… It must be a difficult labor…”

Difficult labor?! Elfman was stunned. He had heard that when females experienced difficult labor, survival was rare.

If the cub remained trapped inside for too long, it would suffocate, and Mi Yue’s life would also be in danger.

Elfman’s heart instantly clenched with fear.

“What do we do? You can’t die.”

He held Mi Yue’s hand even tighter.

“Elfman… take me to Lion City… There are healers there… Only in Lion City can I safely deliver the cub…”

Mi Yue spoke slowly, each word seeming to drain her of strength.

“Lion City?”

Elfman hesitated for a moment, but in this critical situation, there was no time for second thoughts.

“Ngh… Elfman… it hurts… it hurts so much…”

Mi Yue turned her head to look at him, her face covered in sweat and twisted in pain.

Then, she slowly closed her eyes, as if resigning herself to fate.

“Mi Yue, I won’t let you die.”

Elfman panicked, truly panicked.

After struggling internally, he realized he could not bear the thought of losing her.

“Mi Yue… I’ll agree, but only if you become my mate. Only then will I take you there.”

“Fine… I agree.” Mi Yue secretly rejoiced.

It had worked. Her act of pretending to be in difficult labor hadn’t been in vain.

Elfman hadn’t expected Mi Yue to agree so quickly.

Now that she had accepted, he could at least do something.

Without hesitation, Elfman lowered his head and bit Mi Yue’s neck.

Soon after, a small black tiger mark, the symbol of a bonded mate, appeared on the back of his hand.

Seeing the mark, Elfman managed a faint smile.

But there was no time to celebrate. Mi Yue was still in grave danger, and they couldn’t afford any more delays.

Carefully, Elfman picked Mi Yue up and left the Beast Forest, rushing toward Lion City.

On the way, Mi Yue secretly sent a telepathic message to Xiu Ka.

“Xiu Ka… I’m going into labor… I’m on my way to Lion City now…”

The sudden message startled Xiu Ka, who immediately jumped to his feet.

“What do you mean she’s going into labor? How could it be so soon!” Shouldn’t there still be a month left? Could it be premature labor?

Xiu Ka hurried to find Claude and told him the news.

“What? You say Mi Yue is about to give birth and is on her way to Lion City?”

Claude was equally shocked, but he guessed something must have happened in between.

Otherwise, Mi Yue wouldn’t be rushing to Lion City at such a dangerous time.

“Rosso, go quickly! Fetch the best physicians in Lion City, no, the best midwives, and have them wait for me outside the city gates.”

Claude immediately arranged for people to carry out his orders. Once everything was set, he personally went to the city gates to wait.

Before long, he spotted the figures of Elfman and Mi Yue approaching from a distance.

“Master, someone is coming this way,” Rosso said warily, eyeing the dark silhouette approaching from afar.

Claude narrowed his eyes. Given Mi Yue’s critical condition, Elfman wouldn’t easily hand her over.

But time was truly of the essence.

“Just take her from him by force. Make sure Mi Yue isn’t harmed.”

At Claude’s command, everyone’s hearts instantly leaped into their throats.

The city lord valued Mi Yue so much, they really had to be extra careful.

When Elfman and Mi Yue were close enough, Claude waved his hand, and the people behind him surged forward, ready to seize her.

Elfman had been on high alert. Seeing the men charge, he quickly took two steps back, warily eyeing the surrounding crowd.

“What do you think you’re doing?” Elfman demanded.

“Give Mi Yue to me.” Claude declared loudly.

“Over my dead body!” Elfman’s expression turned deadly serious, clearly filled with killing intent.

Mi Yue had no doubt that if Claude ordered another move, Elfman would truly unleash a massacre right here.

“Elfman, it’s alright. They’re on our side, they won’t hurt me. They’re here to help.”

Mi Yue gently patted Elfman’s back, soothing his agitation.

Elfman shifted his attention to Mi Yue and noticed she was sweating even more, her face pale with pain, her voice barely above a whisper.

“Fine. I’ll let them help you.”

Slowly, Elfman loosened his grip and handed Mi Yue over to Claude.

“She’s in so much pain, hurry and take her inside!”

Claude’s heart ached at the sight of Mi Yue’s weakened state, and he urged the physicians beside him incessantly.

In an instant, Claude was surrounded by physicians, and Elfman was even pushed aside.

Giving birth outside wasn’t ideal, but fortunately, Claude had already arranged everything. Now, as soon as they entered Lion City, they could immediately assist Mi Yue with the delivery.

Elfman watched as the crowd entered Lion City and followed closely behind.

“Wait! This is Lion City. Stray beasts are not allowed inside.”

Claude hadn’t stopped Elfman, but the male guards at the city gates blocked his way.

“Who do you think you are, daring to speak to me like that? You must have a death wish.”

Elfman was furious.

“I don’t care who you are, you’re not getting in.”

The guard showed no fear and stood his ground against Elfman.

“Hmph. You’re overestimating yourselves.”

Elfman didn’t want to waste any more words on these guards. He was far more worried about Mi Yue’s condition.

Before the gatekeeper males could even make a move, Elfman had already taken them down in the blink of an eye, leaving them writhing and groaning on the ground without exception.

These males were at most Blue Rank in strength, but against Elfman’s Purple Rank power, they stood no chance.

There was no way they could have stopped him.
