All three beast husbands could clearly sense Yunyang's joy. Qin Mo and Xuan Yu exchanged a glance, vaguely guessing what was going on.
The moment they returned to the villa, Yunyang grabbed Qin Mo's arm.
"Qin Mo, quick, test my ability for me!"
Qin Mo pressed her down onto the sofa before taking out the ability detector he had used last time.
Yunyang adjusted her sitting position and pressed the activation button on the detector.
A few minutes later, the detector displayed the result.
E-rank, unknown ability.
Yunyang: !
She excitedly hugged Qin Mo, who was closest to her. "Qin Mo, my ability has risen to E-rank!"
Yunyang's scent actively drew close, and Qin Mo was overjoyed, immediately pulling her onto his lap.
Xuan Yu on the other side wasn't happy about that. "Damn white tiger, what do you think you're doing? Stop putting your hands on our female master!"
Qin Mo glanced at him and said with absolute justification, "I'm the legally matched beast husband assigned to our female master by the Federation!"
"As if I'm not."
Xuan Yu reached out and snatched Yunyang into his own arms.
How could Qin Mo be willing to accept that? He snatched Yunyang back.
Just as a full-blown contest over her seemed about to break out, Yunyang reached out and pushed both beast husbands away, then walked to a slightly farther spot and sat down.
That position was a bit far from Qin Mo and Xuan Yu, but right next to Fu Shiyi.
The corner of Fu Shiyi's mouth twitched upward for a moment, but quickly fell again.
He said, "Female master, would you like to test the effect of your ability?"
Yunyang really did want to know the effect of the E-rank blessing, so she pulled his hand over and began using her ability.
Fu Shiyi quietly felt it and soon gave a very precise figure.
After the blessing ability rose to E-rank, the enhancement on a single S-rank ability user ranged between 5% and 10%, and the duration had also extended from the original five minutes to ten minutes.
Neither Yunyang nor the three beast husbands had expected this data.
After recovering her ability using the insect cores, Yunyang tried blessing all three beast husbands at once.
Even though the ability was split among them, the effect was not weakened, but the duration for each individual was only three and a half minutes.
If it were just two beast husbands, the duration would be five minutes.
Moreover, this blessing effect would not disappear from being too far away from the blesser.
If this were on a battlefield, then wouldn't it be...!
Qin Mo couldn't even imagine it. He decided that when they got back, he would exchange more insect cores for their female master.
It wasn't as if he would ever run out of military merits. Even if he did, he could buy them with Federation credits, or exchange high-level insect cores for lower-level ones.
Xuan Yu had the same thought.
Even at E-rank blessing, their female master could already boost them by up to 10%. If she rose to S-rank or SS-rank or even SSS-rank, the boost might reach 100% or even higher.
At that point, no matter what sudden situation arose, this would be a lifesaving trump card.
Of course, it was already one right now!
All three beast husbands felt happy for Yunyang.
After Yunyang confirmed the effect of the E-rank blessing, Fu Shiyi got up and headed toward the kitchen.
It was already very late when they had returned from the purification tower, and if he didn't cook soon, their female master would go hungry.
Qin Mo and Xuan Yu realized this too and followed him in to help.
Watching the three busy figures in the kitchen, Yunyang curled up contentedly on the sofa.
Indeed, no matter what good-looking people did, it was a pleasure to watch.
The three beast husbands helped each other out, one dish here, one soup there, and within less than half an hour, dinner was ready.
Yunyang was already seated at the dining table waiting.
The three beast husbands took turns bringing out the dishes, then sat down close beside her.
Butler No. 1 picked an awkward moment to approach. "Master, I've detected that your beast husband, Rong Jin, has arrived for a visit."
Rong Jin!
That name left a deep impression on all three beast husbands.
Not only did they remember Rong Jin clearly, but they also remembered exactly how excited Yunyang had been when she saw Rong Jin in his beast form.
Xuan Yu quickly picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and placed it on Yunyang's plate.
"Female master, eat first. Whatever it is, we can deal with it later."
Rong Jin was also her legal beast husband, and he couldn't exactly propose kicking the man out, but he could secretly throw a wrench in things.
Qin Mo also ladled a bowl of soup and placed it by Yunyang's hand, quietly throwing in a jab. "If it were me, I definitely wouldn't come over at this time, delaying our female master's dinner."
"Female master, your collar is crooked."
Fu Shiyi reached out to straighten Yunyang's collar, and his fingertip seemed to casually brush against the hickey hidden beneath it.
His hand was a little rough, and even a light brush carried a strong presence.
Yunyang felt the silent resistance.
She looked at the three beast husbands and ultimately didn't let Rong Jin in right away.
"Mm, let's eat first."
Xuan Yu was delighted and piled more food onto her plate.
All three beast husbands were very satisfied with this outcome, and they all slowed down their eating pace, thinking they could drag things out for as long as possible.
Outside the villa, seeing that the door still hadn't opened, Rong Jin paced anxiously near the entry sensor device.
No reaction?
Was their female master not home?
Rong Jin opened his optical device and sent a message to the contact at the top of his list.
[Female master, I've arrived. Are you not home?]
Inside the villa, Yunyang's optical device buzzed faintly.
All three beast husbands stopped eating at the same time and turned their heads in unison toward her device.
It had to be that damned Rong Jin texting her!
Yunyang: "..."
These were all her legal beast husbands, so why did she somehow feel like she'd been caught cheating?
No, she couldn't let this kind of behavior continue.
And Rong Jin wasn't even the last one—there was still another legal husband after him!
Yunyang set down her chopsticks.
The chopsticks hit the rim of her bowl with a soft clink.
The three beast husbands tensed and unconsciously straightened their backs.
It wasn't that they had a conditioned reflex for no reason—it was just that back when they lived at home, whenever their mothers slammed their chopsticks down, it meant they were angry.
The three beast husbands immediately began reflecting on themselves.
Qin Mo set aside his food and moved behind Yunyang, starting to massage her shoulders and legs. "Female master, we went too far. Please don't be angry."
Fu Shiyi also got up, took Yunyang's right hand, and knelt on one knee.
"I'm sorry. If you're unhappy, you can completely disregard what we said."
Xuan Yu stood up, kicked his chair aside, and dropped to his knees with a thud.
He even pulled a short black whip out of his spatial button and held it up to Yunyang with both hands.
"Female master, I shouldn't have been jealous of Rong Jin. Punish me."
Qin Mo was stunned.
Wait—what exactly had this wolf cub been through at home?
Yunyang: "..."
She hadn't even said anything yet, and already the three beast husbands were falling over each other to apologize.
And Xuan Yu had even brought out props.
She didn't even know what to say anymore.
Yunyang let out a light cough, confiscated Xuan Yu's prop, and then put on the attitude of the one in charge.
"Rong Jin is just like you—a beast husband matched to me by the Federation Marriage Center."
The three beast husbands lowered their heads.
"You can be jealous of outsiders all you want, but Rong Jin is family. Your jealousy has to have a limit."
The three beast husbands bowed their heads even lower.
"Besides, if I were to favor just one of my beast husbands exclusively, would you all be happy about that?"
The three beast husbands lifted their heads sharply.
