Beast King'S Crippled Mate novel Chapter 329

Chapter 329: Epilogue: The Legend of Swan and Wolf (III)

"MOM!" Sol hugged his mother tightly. He didn’t want to accidentally hurt his mother with his strength, so he carefully controlled his strength. Swan hugged her son back before gently pushing herself out or Sol would hug her for a long time.

She had to admit that Sol seemed to have a strong attachment to her, which she didn’t mind, as she guessed it might be due to their strong affinity. However, Gale thought that it was weird for a powerful Alpha wolf to be so clingy to his parents.

"You’re healthy as always. I thought you’d come to visit us with Tian’e. Where is she?" Swan asked, mentioning Long Xiurong’s daughter, who had become the subject of fascination for her son. "Is she alright?"

The bright smile on Sol’s face dimmed when Tian’e was mentioned. He laughed awkwardly and said, "She said she’s been feeling under the weather lately, but I know it’s because of Aunt Xiurong passing a week ago."

"I see..."

Swan sighed.

Unfortunately, Long Xiurong passed away right after her 70th birthday. She died peacefully in her old age according to humans, but not for beastmen, especially wolf beastmen who had at least two hundred years of lifespan.

She heard that Rock was grieving for a long time in his room, and had gotten sick because of heartbreak. Gale said that Rock would probably follow his mate soon to the afterlife.

Unfortunately, Swan had no right to extend the life of a human, even if she could do it by performing a miracle.

Death was a natural occurrence that shouldn’t be interfered with, or else it might invoke the wrath of other unknown Gods and Goddesses and create another Aria or Madam Harsetti.

"Don’t worry about your aunt. I assure you that she is in heaven right now," Swan tried to comfort her son. "Tell Tian’e that she is part of our family. Whether she will be your fated mate or not, the Beast Castle will always be her home, got it?"

"Mm," Sol nodded. He was feeling a little sad, knowing that the usually cute and energetic Tian’e had become very gloomy these days, but Aunt Xiurong’s death wasn’t the only reason. "Mom, do you think that Tian’e will die when she is two hundred years or so? Can you do something to make her immortal like I am?"

"I can, but I shouldn’t," Swan replied. "Death is a natural thing that shouldn’t be avoided, especially when you’re already on borrowed time. Her mother is a normal human, so I don’t know how long she will live."

"Then what’s the point of falling in love when the woman that I love will die before me eventually?" Sol asked despairingly. "Tian’e told me that she doesn’t want to mate with me because she knows she’ll die early anyway. She knows if she dies first, I will quickly follow her to the afterlife, and she doesn’t want to be a ticking time bomb for me. I-I don’t understand her. Why would she bother so much about it? Even if she dies, I can just follow her to heaven. We can visit heaven anytime in the blink of an eye anyway."

Seeing the despair engulfing Sol, Swan held her son’s hand and said, "My dear son, you need to understand that birth and death is nothing for us, but for them, it’s a one-time experience that is inevitable."
