58: Chapter 58 Unyielding

Bai Wanwan froze all over.

He knows?

Her gaze slowly shifted, landing on Zhu Xiu's face.

Zhu Xiu's expression didn't change at all. "Walking on your own?"

Bai Wanwan took a light breath. If it were just her, she might have risked a try.

But this involved Xin Feng, and they were in Wandering Beast City.

She still hadn't figured out Zhu Xiu's temperament and didn't dare to act recklessly.

"Fine, I'll go with you."

She decided to stick with Zhu Xiu for now. Since Xin Feng could sneak in, as long as he wasn't discovered by other powerful Wandering Beasts, he might be able to escape.

But what Bai Wanwan didn't expect was that after only two steps, Xin Feng suddenly launched an attack on Zhu Xiu.

Zhu Xiu pulled Bai Wanwan back and waved his hand toward Xin Feng.

It was as if two invisible forces had collided.

Xin Feng retreated several steps, appearing to be injured.

Bai Wanwan wanted to go forward to check on him, but Zhu Xiu gripped her arm tightly. "Try taking one more step."

Bai Wanwan gritted her teeth and shouted to Xin Feng, "Xin Feng, leave quickly! Save your life first."

But Xin Feng knew that the Wandering Beasts had already discovered his presence. If they became alert, he would have no chance to get close to her again.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Xin Feng stared warily at Zhu Xiu.

The Wandering Beast before him was the most powerful opponent he had ever encountered.

Bai Wanwan saw things were going poorly. If Xin Feng was injured, he'd be even less likely to escape.

She could trick Yin Da into not touching her for now, but she absolutely couldn't guarantee that Yin Da wouldn't kill Xin Feng.

Catching a glimpse of Zhu Xiu raising his hand, she quickly turned and threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, then looked back at Xin Feng: "Xin Feng, go! If you're injured, you won't be able to take me away, and I'll be trapped here forever. If you escape, there's still a chance to save me."

These words calmed Xin Feng down. Wan Wan was right.

If he couldn't take Wan Wan away this time, he would definitely lose his life here, and Wan Wan would be trapped here forever.

He clenched his hands, his eyes fixed on Bai Wanwan in Zhu Xiu's arms, as he made a difficult decision.

"Alright, Wan Wan, take care of yourself. Wait for me to come and rescue you."

Xin Feng turned and disappeared behind the Stone House. Bai Wanwan felt Zhu Xiu trying to push her away.

Instead of letting go, she held on even tighter.

"Let go!"

Zhu Xiu's face darkened, wanting to swat the Little Female away with a slap.

He raised his hand but then lowered it again.

She couldn't withstand a single strike from him.

"I won't! I didn't go with him, so you can't hurt him."

"I won't hurt him. Let go."

Bai Wanwan didn't let go; instead, she tightened her grip. "I don't believe you."

"Bai Wanwan!"

Zhu Xiu's voice even had a hint of gritted teeth.

Bai Wanwan ignored him, stubbornly clinging to him.

"Even if I don't hurt him, he won't be able to escape!"

As he spoke, Bai Wanwan felt something wriggling beneath her feet.

Again...

Her legs immediately went weak with fear, and Zhu Xiu easily wrapped his snake tail around her.

"Zhu Xiu, let me go."

Zhu Xiu ignored her, coiling around her and carrying her back.

Bai Wanwan was tightly entwined by the snake tail and couldn't break free at all.

She was always flexible; if force didn't work, she'd try a softer approach.

"Zhu Xiu, can you spare his life? Consider it a favor I owe you. I'll repay you if I get the chance in the future."

Zhu Xiu just kept slithering forward, not even glancing at her.

"Please... have some mercy. He's my only Beast Husband. I don't want anything to happen to him. If something happens to him, I'll come cry to you every day and annoy you constantly."

Hearing that he was her only Beast Husband, Zhu Xiu turned to look at her. "You're a Sacred Female, and you only have this one Beast Husband?"

"I'm a Sacred Female, but I have to like him for him to be my Beast Husband... I only like him."

These words were entirely genuine. Xin Feng was so handsome, gentle, and attentive, responding to everything she did.

A perfect husband... he had moved even a heart as hardened as hers.

As for Qiu Rong, she had no emotional foundation with him at all, and he wasn't her Beast Husband.

It was just by a twist of fate that she had given birth to a litter of cubs for him.

Zhu Xiu said no more, carrying her toward Yin Da's residence.

Bai Wanwan was anxious; it seemed the soft approach wasn't working either.

"Zhu Xiu, can't you just turn a blind eye?"

"If anything happens to Xin Feng, I'll fight you to the bitter end for the rest of my life. If you want to stay in Wandering Beast City, I will definitely find a way to kick you out!"

Bai Wanwan's mouth didn't stop chattering until Zhu Xiu brought her back to Yin Da's residence.

"Done talking?"

After she was placed on the Stone Bed, Bai Wanwan sprang up. "Zhu Xiu..."

This time, before she could finish, Zhu Xiu spoke. "If you really want him to live, then stay put and don't do anything else."

Bai Wanwan looked at him in confusion. "Do you mean you'll let him go?"

Zhu Xiu glanced at her, said nothing more, and turned to stride out.

"Zhu Xiu..."

Bai Wanwan slid from the bed to the floor and chased after him.

But there was no sign of Zhu Xiu outside the door.

Bai Wanwan picked at the stone by the door. What did Zhu Xiu mean?

She paced back and forth at the door. After a while, still uneasy, she wanted to go check on the situation.

After all, Zhu Xiu was also a Wandering Beastman. If an outsider sneaked in, he couldn't just ignore it.

She carefully felt her way along the wall.

It seemed Zhu Xiu had gone this way just now...

Bai Wanwan determined the direction and quietly followed.

It was already dark, the moonlight was faint, and she still couldn't see the path clearly.

Suddenly, her arm was grabbed by a Wandering Beastman who appeared out of nowhere.

"Where did this Little Female come from? Why haven't I seen her before?"

Bai Wanwan could only vaguely see that the Male before her was exceptionally sturdy, his muscles like rising hills.

She couldn't appreciate such a physique.

"I am Yin Da's Female. Let go."

"The City Lord's Female? You're that Sacred Female, Bai Wanwan?"

Shi Sen, the Third Leader of Wandering Beast City, had just returned laden with spoils after intercepting a Medium-sized Tribe's Caravan.

He had also heard about this joyous event.

Their Wandering Beast City had stood in the West Barren for over ten years, and they had only ever had one Sacred Female before.

This was the second.

Shi Sen's blood boiled. This was a Sacred Female!

Bai Wanwan thought he would let go, but to her surprise, he hoisted her onto his shoulder with one arm.

"I am City Lord Yin Da's Female, do you hear me clearly?"

"Quiet! I heard you. So what if you're Yin Da's Female? His Female can still warm my nest!"

Shi Sen laughed loudly, carrying her toward his Stone House with one hand.

"Yin Da likes me very much. If you touch me, he definitely won't let you off."

Shi Sen chuckled. "Yin Da likes you? Even better if he likes you..."

This Male... why is he so impervious to reason?

Bai Wanwan was carried on his shoulder, which pressed right against her stomach, leaving her dizzy and nauseous from the jolting.

"Wait... I'm also Zhu Xiu's Female. Zhu Xiu said... no other Male is allowed to touch me. If you want to die, then go ahead and let me warm your nest."

The third round of the PK test has begun. I hope everyone can lend me a hand by adding this to your collection and voting. Thank you, everyone!
