429: Chapter 429 You forced me to do this

Without hesitation, Jiao Yin slipped silently into the water, following from a distance.

Roger's figure disappeared into the entrance of a half-submerged cave beneath the cliff face.

Jiao Yin clung to the damp rock wall near the cave entrance like a gecko, holding his breath and focusing intently.

A Female's voice, tinged with tension and feigned composure, came from within the cave: "You... how are you back so soon?"

It was immediately followed by the icy, suppressed, pre-storm calm of the Male beastman's questioning: "Do you recognize these things?"

Torn pieces of merman silk fabric were thrown violently to the ground.

After a brief silence, Bai Wanwan took a light breath, attempting to cover up, "The clothes were torn, so I discarded them."

Jiao Yin heard heavy footsteps steadily approaching the Female.

Then, the Male beastman's voice, cold as a serpent's hiss, bone-chillingly clear, reached Jiao Yin's ears:

"Bai Wanwan, I haven't touched you, giving you time to gradually accept me."

"But if you keep resorting to these little tricks, trying to escape..."

His voice suddenly rose, carrying a cruel resolve: "I will make you bear my Cubs first! So you can never leave me again!"

Bai Wanwan furrowed her brows tightly. She truly feared Roger might go mad; if that happened, she would definitely use the Laser Gun to save herself.

"I told you, the clothes were just torn, and I threw them away!" She tried her best to confront him calmly.

Jiao Yin, pressed against the cold rock wall, his gaze turned utterly icy.

No wonder this noble Female appeared here.

So, she was imprisoned here by that powerful Male through despicable means...

Jiao Yin quietly retreated, diving into the deep sea.

He sped towards the Wane Tribe's territory at his fastest pace. Relying on his formidable strength and the majesty of the Merman King, he swiftly subdued the tribe's restlessness with thunderous force, temporarily quelling the disturbance.

He didn't even linger. After resolving the core conflict, he immediately returned at full speed to the vicinity of the cliffside cave where Bai Wanwan was trapped.

He patiently lurked in the seawater below the cave, like the most skilled hunter.

Finally, he saw that sinister Male emerge from the cave once more.

Jiao Yin waited a moment, confirming Roger had temporarily moved away, then surfaced as silently as a ghost, nimbly climbing into the cave.

Inside the dimly lit cave, Bai Wanwan had her back to the entrance.

Hearing the sound of water and footsteps behind her, she thought Roger was tricking her by returning.

So, without turning her head, her voice laced with sarcasm, she said: "Don't worry, I won't overestimate my strength and try to escape. I haven't had enough of living yet."

However, the voice that rang out behind her was a low, pleasant, slightly cool one that also sounded somewhat familiar.

"It seems you need help?"

Bai Wan trembled violently and swiftly turned around!

In the dim light, Jiao Yin's extraordinarily handsome face, like a sea deity, came into view, his silver hair seemingly glowing with its own light!

"It's you!"

Bai Wanwan's voice choked with emotion. She practically threw herself forward.

Grabbing Jiao Yin's cool arm, which made her feel incredibly safe, she said, "Luo Qing! I helped you before, right? Now I need your help too."

Jiao Yin looked at the Female before him, who, though somewhat haggard, remained breathtakingly beautiful.

The fire of survival burned in her eyes as she stared at him.

So bright, it made his heart tremble slightly.

"Alright, I'll take you out, then notify your Beast Husbands." His voice was steady and powerful, carrying a convincing promise.

Jiao Yin reached out, encircling Bai Wanwan's slender waist, preparing to leap with her into the sea.

At this critical moment, a voice, dark and suppressing fury, exploded at the cave entrance.

"Where are you taking her?"

Roger still held the freshly caught sea fish in his hand. Now, he glared furiously at the two embracing figures inside the cave, especially Jiao Yin's hand on Bai Wanwan's waist!

Like a beast thoroughly enraged, he violently hurled the food in his hand to the ground. With berserk Dark Energy, he lunged at Jiao Yin like an arrow released from its bow, his sharp claws aimed straight for his throat!

Jiao Yin reacted extremely quickly, pushing Bai Wanwan behind him. Powerful energy instantly erupted around him, forming a swirling shield.

*Boom!*

Two formidable forces collided violently. The entire cave seemed to shudder, rubble pattering down.

Jiao Yin's heart turned cold. This Male's strength far exceeded his estimation, especially that阴冷 berserk Dark Energy, carrying Extremely corrosive!

Although he might not lose in a one-on-one fight, escaping unscathed with a completely non-combatant Female from his grasp would be extremely difficult!

Bai Wanwan was forced back several steps by the energy shockwave, colliding with the stone wall.

Seeing this, Roger instinctively took a few steps forward, wanting to see if she was injured.

But then he thought, this hateful Female had just tried to leave him with the merman before him.

He forcibly halted his steps, no longer looking at her, and launched another attack towards Jiao Yin.

On the verge of imminent freedom, if Jiao Yin were injured now, the chance of escaping from Roger's side in the future would likely be minuscule.

Taking advantage of the two Males fighting and not paying attention to her, she quietly retrieved the Laser Gun from her system space.

"Jiao Yin! Take me away! I have a way to deal with him!" Bai Wanwan's gaze was exceptionally resolute.

Hearing her, Jiao Yin feinted a move without hesitation, instantly withdrawing his force and retreating. Simultaneously, he lightning-fast encircled Bai Wanwan's waist again. Pushing off with the tip of his foot, he decisively leapt towards the turbulent sea outside the cave!

"Bai Wanwan, you come back here!" Roger roared in rage, watching helplessly as the two plummeted towards the sea surface, and he chased after them without a second thought.

An immense sense of betrayal and loss drove him utterly mad!

"Bai Wanwan, you are mine! Don't you dare think of leaving me again!"

In his furious, the Dark Energy accumulated within Roger erupted like an Out-of-control volcano!

Thick, ink-like black energy surged wildly from his entire body, instantly coalescing into a massive, swirling vortex of darkness. Carrying Terrifying suction and destructive aura, it swept towards the two falling figures!

The vortex seemed capable of swallowing light. Wherever it passed, the seawater emitted a sizzling sound as if being corroded!

Held tightly by Jiao Yin, plummeting rapidly, Bai Wanwan felt the world-obliterating dark breath behind her. The shadow of death instantly enveloped her!

No more hesitation remained in her heart. She sharply raised her arm, the miniature Laser Gun clenched in her hand aimed at the ashore figure who had descended into madness, Manipulating the dark vortex!

"Roger! You forced me to do this!" Though a flicker of hesitation was in her eyes, it was mostly resolute will to survive!

*Zzzzt!*

A dazzling, Incandescent white beam, like lightning Tearing through the darkness, instantly shot forth from the gun's muzzle!

The beam shot with impeccable precision into the center of the wildly spinning Dark Energy vortex!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only an eerie sound like melting ice and snow.
