Several children saw strangers suddenly appearing and screamed in horror, which silenced the noisy tribe for a moment. 

The males with beast markings emerged and stood in front of the elderly, weak females, and children. The tallest and strongest male slowly walked over and asked, “Who are you? What do you want?”

Fortunately, he was talking in the universal animal language. Zhou Yun Sheng could not only understand it, but could also speak it.

One man and a beast looked at one another and decided to stay in the tribe to explore the situation. How many years had passed in the future? How long had it been since they set off? Without detailed numerical values, the Empire could not set the time coordinates and jump through the time-space nodes to bring them back. Compared to the uncivilized primitive tribes, Zhou Yun Sheng preferred advanced civilizations with state-of-the-art science and technology. He did not want to live on this planet forever.

“Hello, we have been separated from our people during our migration. Can we temporarily stay with your tribe? My name is Sheng, his name is Xuan, we are partners.” Zhou Yun Sheng stepped forward, asking gently and politely. 

Population was the key to the development and growth of a tribe. This person was obviously female and extraordinarily good-looking. It was the type of good-looking that couldn’t be described, that would make one’s eyes dazzled and head dizzy at first sight.

The tribe leader, with flushed cheeks, gave him a quick glance and said, “If you want to stay, you must prove that you have the ability to feed yourself. Our tribe can support females, but not males with working hands and feet.” He looked pointedly at the lion with the golden fur.

Zhao Xuan opened his mouth and gave a deafening roar.

It was unforgivable to belittle him in front of his wife. His roar was terrifying, but only lasted for a moment. Soon, all of the male beastmen in the tribe gathered together, showing a combative expression. Squeezing his fist, the leader said, “Turn into a human form and fight us. If you win three consecutive times, you can stay.”

Zhao Xuan's body stiffened, and he turned to his lover. He had taken the metamorphosis pill, and the effects would last for a year. Only after a year would he become a man again.

Zhou Yun Sheng asked with a smile, "Can't fight without shifting into human form?"

“Is your partner an ancestral beast? He can’t shift?” The tribe leader was so surprised that the people standing behind him couldn’t help but laugh scornfully.

More than 2,000 years had passed since the first male became human. During this time, the beasts had hunted each other and been burned by heavenly fire. They were on the verge of extinction, but had miraculously multiplied instead. In one ordeal after the other, the humanoid beastmen grew stronger and stronger while the primitive beasts that could not transform became weaker and weaker. Some had even degenerated and become true beasts, killing their tribe’s people. 

Tribes needed females and strong beastmen, but had no need for useless ancestral beasts that might become insane at any moment.

The arrival of an ancestral beast heralded endless trouble.

Ancestral beasts? Zhou Yun Sheng quickly got the information he needed from those two words.
