Fang Chang finally understood everything. Li Zirong had been behind it all! Otherwise, why would Li Zirong have come running over with a skirt the moment Fang Chang got a body?

And Li Zirong didn’t even seem to care whether it fit.

A chill ran through Fang Chang, and every bit of goodwill toward Li Zirong vanished. In Fang Chang’s eyes, Li Zirong was now a total pervert. Who’d have a fetish like that—deliberately turning a man into a woman?

Even though Li Zirong was a woman too.

Fang Chang suppressed the urge to attack. After all, this was Li Zirong’s turf, and a fight here wouldn’t end well. But Fang Chang wouldn’t accept charity from Li Zirong either. And how could a grown man (or so he thought) wear a little skirt!

“This is all your fault! You turned me into a girl, and I’m not wearing anything you give me!”

Li Zirong’s little brows furrowed, and a hint of innocence crept into her mechanical voice. “Are you just going to stay naked, then?”

Fang Chang instinctively squeezed her legs together. If Li Zirong really was the pervert Fang Chang suspected, staying naked seemed even more dangerous!

“Then… stay away from me… and don’t you dare peek!”

“We’re both women. What’s there to be shy about?”

The blush on Fang Chang’s face spread all the way to her ears. She snapped, “I said don’t look!”

Li Zirong was still perfectly agreeable. She pushed the clothes rack aside, obediently left the room, then went over to a control panel. A small TV on it was showing Fang Chang inside the room.

“No wonder you’re called a ‘mother.’ The organs meant to nurse the next generation are huge! Good thing I designed your fitted magical garment to change shape. It can handle a D cup, even a G.”

Li Zirong smiled smugly. Then she remembered something and pressed a hand to her chest. Her mechanical palm met nothing but a flat surface, and her smile slowly faded.

A string of data appeared beside Fang Chang on the small TV. The numbers rose a little with every piece of clothing she put on. Li Zirong kept her eyes fixed on the data and told the squid-shaped machine beside her to record everything.

But by the end, Li Zirong’s gaze was completely fixed on Fang Chang’s chest. She left all the recording to the squid-shaped machine and silently ground her teeth.

A short while later, Fang Chang emerged, walking awkwardly in her little skirt.

Her little shoes clacked against the floor, leaving prints from their soles. That was with Fang Chang holding back—if she’d put all her strength into a step, she could’ve split the laboratory in two.

Only then did she realize what the clothes could do. They were embarrassing women’s clothes, but they gave her a huge boost—and, surprisingly, fit her perfectly.

In Fang Chang’s eyes, Li Zirong was now a total pervert.

Li Zirong had designed Fang Chang’s human template. No wonder she knew her measurements.

Just thinking about it made Fang Chang grind her teeth.

“Damn it!”

While Fang Chang was still grinding her teeth in fury, Li Zirong quickly switched off the small TV. Putting the unpleasantness behind her, she forced a smile. “Feel powerful? This outfit matches your Beast-Melding body perfectly and greatly boosts your innate abilities. Even I can’t restrain you now.”

Fang Chang’s heart stirred. She slowly clenched a fist. “What did you say?”

Li Zirong didn’t answer. She went on as if talking to herself. “The clothes are your treasure. I also designed lots of ways for them to transform. Take the little skirt, for example: it can turn into hot pants or leather pants, and it can change length and color. One skirt means you can wear a different look every day of the year. Don’t worry about getting it dirty, either. It cleans itself, and it can give off a fragrance to boost your charm and attract men with raging hor—”

The first part had been fine, but what was that about attracting men? And on top of what Li Zirong had said about being unable to restrain her, that was the last straw. The furious Fang Chang finally made her move.

Her instinct for controlling airflow let her move as if borne on the wind, while her powerful body could manage poses ordinary people could never pull off. She sprang into the air, and Bone-Stripping Wind burst from her feet. It was a demon’s power—not just wind created by moving air, but a force carrying the demon’s curse, capable of striking directly at the soul.

Eight struts extended from behind Li Zirong, forcibly stabilizing the air around her. But the curse carried by Bone-Stripping Wind didn’t let up. She reached out again, and a layer of light appeared to block the attack.

Li Zirong had expected something like this, but it happened so suddenly that she still froze. “Why are you attacking me?”

Fang Chang landed from a backflip, biting down on her silver teeth. “You tell me! What did you turn me into?”

“It couldn’t be helped.” Li Zirong lowered the shield and helplessly spread her hands. “I told you there was a lot of uncertainty. You’re a mutated zombie Mother Nest, and although you’re male physically, a deity like the Shadow-Devouring Lord sees your essence as yin. The name he gave you also contains the laws of the universe. I can’t reverse it.”

Fang Chang thought it over carefully. Maybe Li Zirong really was right. Her hostility eased a little, but she wasn’t giving up yet. “But you made my human template. Couldn’t you have made me male?”

“Then you’d have become a eunuch. The will of the universe can’t be defied. Even if I gave you a male template, the moment you completed the naming, it would transform you into a half-man, half-woman. And as time passed, your female traits would overwhelm the male ones. You’d still become a woman.”

Fang Chang was starting to accept what Li Zirong was saying. But becoming a woman was a shock she couldn’t just get used to by accepting the facts. She gave Li Zirong a wounded look. “Why didn’t you tell me back then?”

Li Zirong looked innocent. “I told you there was a lot of uncertainty!”

“I mean the possibility that being a mutated zombie Mother Nest would turn me into a woman!”

“But you didn’t ask! And it was all written out clearly in the system. I thought you knew!”

Fang Chang’s shoulders slumped. “So my dick’s just gone like that?”

Li Zirong comforted her, with the faintest hint of envy in her voice. “You may have lost what was down there, but you’ve gotten bigger up top!”
