SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family

So, the Spirit boat was introduced, either found in the treasure chest or someone built using the manufacturing scroll they got.

Onboard, a group of shady men huddled together, whispering and grumbling about their latest mission.

The leader of the group, a rough-looking man with a crooked grin, leaned against the side of the boat, scanning the horizon.

His name was Han, and he was one of the well-known poachers in the Southern part of the Western Continent.

Today, he and his small crew of poachers are going toward the Southern Continent, which does not have any known human cities or settlements.

This surprised many, but without any way to go there, no one thought much about it. Many adventurous people have gone to this nomadic land with the Spirit Boat.

Many died during this adventure, but some survived, and as soon as they returned, they told the World shocking news: the Southern Continent was occupied by intelligent monsters.

Soon, it was confirmed that these monsters could transform into human form after reaching a certain cultivation realm, which excited the poachers.

And Han is one of these people who planned to kidnap a few younger beasts and then train them before selling them for a profit.

"They can switch between human and animal forms," Han muttered to his men. "Imagine the spirit stones we could get for them in the Western Continent.

Rich folks will pay a fortune to have one of those creatures as a servant or bodyguard."

The others nodded, grinning at the thought of the riches awaiting them. For them, this was similar to kidnapping small animals like tigers and lions and selling them to those crazy rich people who have these kinds of hobbies.

Most of them had been involved in smuggling or illegal hunting before, but capturing the Monster Race? That was a whole new level.

One of the younger poachers, Lin, a skinny guy with quick hands, scratched his head. "You sure we can pull this off? I heard the Monster Race is tough. They won\'t just let us take their kids."

Han smirked. "That\'s why we target the young ones. The adults might be strong, but the kids? They won\'t even know what hit \'em. We snatch \'em, train \'em, and sell \'em. Easy."

Lin looked nervous but didn\'t say anything. He wasn\'t too keen on the idea of messing with a race that could turn into animals, but the promise of a huge payday kept him quiet. After all, they were poachers, and this was just another job. Or so they thought.

Another poacher, Jin, spat over the side of the boat. "I\'ve heard the foxes are the prettiest. Get me one of those, and we\'ll be set for life. The nobles love exotic pets."

The Fox clan is the most talked about as they are the only ones who did not actively hunt the adventurous people who came to the Southern Continent, which is how they learned about this.

The men chuckled darkly, already planning how they\'d spend their earnings.

They had been tracking rumors for weeks, hearing about how the Monster Race had hidden deep in the Southern Continent, far from human interference.

But Han had found a reliable source, someone who claimed to know where they lived and how they operated.

"We\'ll hit one of the smaller villages first," Han said. "The foxes or the snakes, it doesn\'t matter. As long as we grab a few young ones, we\'ll make a killing."

The Spirit Boat continued its flight, the men unaware of the true danger they were heading toward.

They thought they had the upper hand, but they were walking into a land where the rules were different—and the consequences of their greed would be more than they could handle which they will soon find out.

Meanwhile, in the Southern Continent

The Southern Continent was a wild, untamed place filled with thick jungles, towering mountains, and sprawling rivers.

This was the Continent that the World\'s Will gave to the animals of the old world, who have now been transformed into the Monster race.

Similar to humans, the monster race has the same cultivation realm, but before they are able to transform, they cannot cultivate using the cultivation manual.

Instead, they have to devour heavenly materials and wait as they can cultivate automatically, which gave them a boost that has led to them catching up with the humans.

However, what made the Southern continent unique was how the tribes were structured. The tribes of the Monster Race were all led by females.

In their culture, the females were seen as the birthgivers and, therefore, the leaders of their people.

Conversely, the males were the warriors and protectors, always ready to defend their tribes from outside threats.

This way, the Monster race was able to live peacefully, similar to the humans; they had enough resources to use for hundreds of years.

And when they gained the ability to transform, they held a meeting where they would not actively fight as they needed to grow before the humans found them.

Yes, they knew that the humans would come for them, so they prepared early to defend and even counterattack if possible.

This is because all of them knew the human cruelty and knew that for them, the Monster race was a new toy that they would exploit for their own profit.

In the old world, these animals were suppressed due to the thermal weapons, but not in this world, as they could gain the same strength as the humans, putting them in the same leveling field.

So when they found the first batch of humans, they knew the day had come, which is why some of them were let go.

They wanted powerful people to come to them so that they could find out the real situation outside the continent through them.
