Chapter 23: Her Beast Husbands Have All Arrived!

Xin Feng bit through the neck of the grey wolf closest to him in one go.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of three grey wolves pouncing toward Bai Wanwan from the flank. His pupils constricted, and without hesitation, he spun around, his broad back blocking her like a shield.

Sharp wolf fangs pierced into Xin Feng's forelimb, and blood instantly soaked his fur.

In the next second, Xin Feng used his claws to disembowel the grey wolf directly.

Turning his head again, he bit into the belly of another grey wolf.

Bai Wanwan watched the crimson blood flowing from Xin Feng's forelimb, her eyes turning red.

This damn Beast Tide, these damn grey wolves—they were forcing them into a dead end!

The fury she had been forcibly suppressing for these past few days surged up at this moment.

She gripped Xin Feng tightly with one hand, forcing herself to calmly stare at the attacking grey wolves.

In a spot Xin Feng hadn't noticed, a grey wolf crept up from behind, attempting to pounce and bite at Bai Wanwan on his back.

By the time Xin Feng finally noticed, the grey wolf was already mid-air, its grim fangs bared, about to bite Bai Wanwan.

Bai Wanwan stared intently at its exposed soft underbelly.

“Xin Feng, don't move.”

Xin Feng was about to pounce and bite, but at Bai Wanwan's words, he stopped. Bai Wanwan flicked her wrist, and the Long Blade in her hand pierced into the grey wolf's belly with swift, accurate ruthlessness.

Squelch...

The blade entered the flesh surprisingly smoothly. She twisted it hard and then yanked it out, warm wolf blood splashing onto her face.

Seeing this, Xin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and immediately met the attack of another wolf.

The Wolf Pack seemed endless; they cunningly attacked in turns, wearing down their physical strength.

Bai Wanwan assisted from the side, seizing every opportunity with strikes that were both ruthless and fast, yet out of five attacks, only two actually wounded these agile beasts.

After dealing with the surrounding threats, Jin Yi quickly returned to help, forming a pincer formation with Xin Feng to protect Bai Wanwan in the center.

“The Beast Tide is approaching.”

Jin Yi's voice was tense as he glanced back.

The ground had already begun to vibrate, indicating that a massive number of wild beasts were charging this way.

The two Males exchanged a solemn look.

They might be able to protect the Little Female within the Wolf Pack, but facing the overwhelming swarm of Frenzied Beasts... they simply couldn't guarantee the Little Female's safety.

They had to enter the Underground River Cave as soon as possible!

Their offensive became increasingly fierce, each strike carrying the determination of burning one's boats.

Bai Wanwan also seized every gap to deliver finishing blows, but the number of wolves still exceeded their estimates.

Thump, thump, thump...

The sound of the stampeding beasts rolled closer like muffled thunder, and the air was filled with a nauseating stench.

The nearest trees had already begun to shake, leaves falling like rain.

“Charge through!” Jin Yi decided decisively.

The remaining dozen or so wolves were still stubbornly blocking the path to the Underground River.

Jin Yi's golden fur stood on end, his muscles tensed like a bow. “I'll lead the way!”

Just then, a series of shrill wails suddenly came from deep within the forest.

Bai Wanwan looked up and saw towering ancient trees collapsing one after another, as a massive dark shadow wound its way through the forest.

With every swing of that giant snake tail, wild beasts were tossed high into the air like ragdolls.

Bai Wanwan's heart nearly leapt out of her chest.

Is it... Zhu Xiu?

Xin Feng caught a glimpse of that familiar figure, and his tense shoulders finally relaxed slightly.

But he soon refocused entirely on dealing with the Wolf Pack in front of him, clearing the way for the arriving reinforcements.

The King Cobra's crimson vertical pupils immediately locked onto the slender figure behind the Silver Wolf.

The anxiety and unease of the past many days vanished in an instant.

He accelerated his slithering, and wherever he passed, wild beasts were sent flying.

Bai Wanwan watched the approaching giant snake, and her whole body relaxed.

Those red-tinged snake eyes were still cold, yet they brought her an unprecedented sense of peace.

“Zhu Xiu!”

She raised her voice and called out to him.

The King Cobra slithered to her side and lowered its massive head, gently rubbing against her cheek. “Don't be afraid,”

His voice was deep and pleasant. “We're here.”

We?

Before Bai Wanwan could react, she saw another vigorous figure burst out from behind Zhu Xiu.

“Wan Wan!”

Yan Lie had clearly heard Bai Wanwan's voice; he immediately used a roar to scare off the surrounding beasts before quickly turning his head to look around.

Finally, he saw Bai Wanwan not far in front of Zhu Xiu.

The snow-white leopard leapt up, flashing before Bai Wanwan as quickly as lightning.

“Did I scare you?” Yan Lie eagerly rubbed against her palm, his voice full of self-reproach—blaming himself for not protecting her well and making her worry for him.

His snow-white leopard body was covered in scars, yet he still looked majestic.

Seeing Bai Wanwan staring at him without blinking or saying a word,

He panicked slightly and hurriedly continued, “Wan Wan, it's me... Look, I'm fine.”

Bai Wanwan looked at the large and small, crisscrossing scars all over him. This was called being “fine”?

“Mm,”

Bai Wanwan blinked hard, trying to hold back the physiological tears.

Previously, she had looked down most on people who cried at every turn, but at this moment, her eyes were heating up uncontrollably.

She forced a smile and nodded vigorously. “Yes, you're all still here... That's wonderful.”

Seeing the tears in the Little Female's eyes, Yan Lie immediately panicked, feeling a bit at a loss.

He had traveled day and night to rush back, just fearing she would be frightened.

In fact, if it hadn't been for the box of Ointment Wan Wan had given him before, he might really not have made it back.

“The Beast Tide is approaching.”

Jin Yi's cold voice broke this brief moment of warmth. “End this quickly and enter the Underground River Cave.”

Yan Lie swatted away a charging beast with a paw and turned to say to Bai Wanwan, “Wan Wan, let's take care of these things first. I'll talk to you properly in a bit.”

Yan Lie's figure flashed as he charged into the Wolf Pack side-by-side with Jin Yi.

Bai Wanwan nodded and turned to look at Zhu Xiu.

Zhu Xiu used his massive body to block the vast majority of the charging beasts.

His giant snake tail swept like a whip, knocking back all the approaching beasts.

Carrying Bai Wanwan on his back, Xin Feng was relatively relaxed, only needing to deal with the occasional stragglers.

The several Males coordinated seamlessly, and their pace of advancement suddenly quickened.

As the last blocking wolf fell, Jin Yi's voice came from ahead: “Into the Cave!”

The moment the Males rushed into the Cave, they all transformed into human form, making the narrow grotto suddenly feel much more spacious.

“This place can't hide anyone.” Yan Lie scanned the completely exposed Cave entrance and frowned.

Xin Feng patted his shoulder. “There's an Underground River inside. The passage is narrow, so the beasts won't be able to pass through in groups.”

Bai Wanwan looked back and saw the tide-like swarm of beasts. Zhu Xiu was still at the entrance blocking them, and she felt worried. “Zhu Xiu! Don't mind them, come in quickly!”

With one last tail sweep to clear the entrance, Zhu Xiu instantly transformed into human form and rushed in.

He rushed over, scooped up Bai Wanwan, and dashed into the narrow underground Cave.

Following closely behind was a massive swarm of beasts, continuously pouring into the Cave...
