Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands

Chapter 165: Chapter 165 We Exist Forever in the Cosmic River

[Star-breaking Pill? This thing consumes the life force of Beastmen whenever superpowers are used, doesn’t it?] Bai Yan’s voice trembled.

Insect Brain chuckled lightly: [From what I know, you’ve already fed Star-breaking Pills to Ying Fei and Xi Qu, those two Beastmen.]

Insect Brain: [After the apocalypse, humans on Mist Continent awakened their superpowers, and their lifespans have now extended significantly, living for four or five hundred years is no problem.]

Insect Brain: [For pre-apocalypse humans, reaching the age of eighty was considered longevity.]

Insect Brain: [Even after taking the Star-breaking Pill, the impact on a four to five hundred-year lifespan is negligible.]

Bai Yan listened to Insect Brain’s words with her heart wavering.

Insect Brain stared at her hand hovering over the Star-breaking Pill, hesitating whether to touch it.

Its tone became alluring: [Don’t you want revenge? Are you willing to always remain under Xiao Jinsheng’s shadow, letting her and even her Beast Husband outshine yours?]

Insect Brain: [System 1.0 bound to you because you’re the heroine of this world.]

Insect Brain: [From the beginning, you were meant to dominate this world—to replace the Terminal and take command of Mist Continent.]

Insect Brain: [Your future changed only because of Xiao Jinsheng’s arrival.]

Bai Yan hesitated further.

She had eight Beast Husbands.

Kui Mao died when Xiao Jinsheng’s poisoned dagger shredded his heart.

Now she only had seven left, of which two had already taken the Star-breaking Pill.

Such a power-enhancing tool came with a deadly cost, like a ticking time bomb.

In desperation to survive, fearing Xiao Jinsheng would kill her, Bai Yan had Ying Fei and Xi Qu swallow the pills, but now she lived each day in constant dread.

Daily, when clearing Fog Corpses and Mutant Beasts, whenever superpowers were involved, Bai Yan tried her best to keep Ying Fei and Xi Qu away from these tasks.

This led to complaints from the other Beast Husbands, who believed Bai Yan was biased and caused domestic strife several times.

Thinking of the new rules under the Terminal’s protection, Bai Yan reassured herself that Xiao Jinsheng couldn’t kill her.
