Ye Lingyue glanced over, and the person on the bed... was nothing like the beautiful Empress Dowager Chi, but rather a white tigress.
Seeing Ye Lingyue's puzzled expression, Chi Chi explained beside her.
"Mother's aura is very weak, her demonic power is insufficient to maintain her human form, so she's reverted to beast form."
Ye Lingyue nodded, understanding now that demon beasts and humans are indeed different.
The essence of a demon beast is its beast form, which surfaces when the demonic power is insufficient or during an excited state; it's actually nothing unusual.
Ye Lingyue was surprised because Empress Dowager Chi's true form looked exactly like the little White Tiger raised by Fifth Sister.
Look at the fur color, and the tuft on the forehead that resembles a "king" character; they're practically cut from the same mold.
Ye Lingyue murmured privately.
"Chi Chi, aren't the fur of the Chi Tiger Clan supposed to be crimson? Why is it pure white?"
Ye Lingyue suspected.
