100: Chapter 100 Don't put on an act that disgusts both of us.

The Tapir Beastman shrieked, trying to crawl up, but found he couldn't move at all.

I'm dead!

"Mom, Dad, Mistress, Sister, I'm coming to see you all!"

He shouted.

The next second, he found himself back on the ground.

Scattered around were several corpses of Beastmen who had already shifted into their Beast Form.

Yan Qing looked down at him from above.

His emerald green eyes emitted a Chi Ling light in the darkness.

"Tell the truth. I can guarantee you'll live."

The Tapir Beastman was stunned.

He immediately threw himself onto the ground and began to wail.

"Snake King, help! Snake King, save me! My clan has all been eaten by Chi Ling! And the Sparrow Tribe, and... the Beastmen in various cities who didn't submit to her, and... She raised so many Beast-Eating Fish; the Beastmen she couldn't finish eating, she threw in! Those who didn't listen were also thrown in... and my Mistress..."

He grabbed his own hair. His speech was incoherent, appearing insane. He seemed to have been terrified.

Yan Qing didn't listen any further.

He only left behind a few words, "Hide, and appear again tomorrow," before turning and shifting into his Beast Form, disappearing from his sight.

It was the Tapir Beastman's first time seeing such a massive Beast Form, but compared to the Red Bone Snake Clan, it was still much smaller.

Was he really a match for Chi Ling?

---

Yan Qing sped along the way. Soon, he arrived at the entrance of Chi Ling's cave.

With a wave of his hand, he burned the few Beastmen at her entrance to ashes.

He strode into the cave and passed through a corridor.

The corridor was filled with the smell of charred food.

He was unobstructed the whole way; all the Beastmen who tried to stop him were reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

When he appeared before Chi Ling, she was sleeping soundly, using a giant carved leg bone as a pillow.

"Yan Qing?" Chi Ling woke up in a start.

A thin garment made of snake skin barely covered her key areas.

She coyly covered her chest.

"Why come find me so late? Does your Mistress know?"

Yan Qing sneered, "Don't make a face that disgusts both you and me."

Chi Ling suddenly let out a "pfft" of laughter.

She stepped on her toes, walked up to him, and reached out to hook his neck, but was nimbly dodged by Yan Qing.

"When I was young, you held me every day. Why, now that I've grown up, are you afraid to?"

Yan Qing looked away.

He recalled that when she was young, she was also a cute little Female Beastman.

But as she grew older, the brutal blood of the Red Bone Snake Clan grew within her body.

When he first discovered her killing her servants and gnawing on them in the middle of the night, the little Female Beastman in his heart had already died.

"If it weren't for my father's instructions, I would have killed you long ago!"

The Red Bone Snake Clan feeds on Beastmen.

Other Beastmen who eat Beastmen will be met with the Beast God's Curse; at best, their skin will fester, and at worst, they will die suddenly.

But the Red Bone Snake Clan is special; their bones grow on the outside.

Therefore, every scar left behind after being punished by the Beast God, once healed, actually makes their bones even tougher.

Moreover, while feeding on Beastmen, the Red Bone Snake Clan can also devour the Beastmen's Energy.

Therefore, the more people Chi Ling eats, the more powerful she becomes.

But she doesn't have to eat them. She just wants to be stronger! She also doesn't view other Beastmen as lives. This is the nature of the Red Bone Snake Clan.

"You can't bear to." She blinked innocently.

"Really?" Yan Qing sneered.

Under the gaze of Yan Qing's emerald eyes, Chi Ling seemed to have her hypocritical mask torn off. She suddenly shrieked and lunged at him.

Yan Qing dodged quickly. Suddenly, he realized his speed was much slower than usual.

The next second, a massive wave of fatigue struck him. He nearly fell.

"What's going on?"

Chi Ling hopped toward him with light steps.

"My Snake King, you spend every day clinging to your Mistress. How would you know that the Beast World is so vast and full of fresh novelties! For example, my new Beast Husband brought back a kind of divine herb that supposedly grows on Beast God Mountain. It can temporarily Seal one's Supernatural Ability. Just by smelling its scent..."

Yan Qing suddenly remembered the charred smell he had sensed in the corridor. To think such a thing existed.

"So—" A red whip appeared in Chi Ling's hand, "Wait until I kill you! Everything you have is mine! I'll eat whoever I want! The Beast World belongs to my Red Bone Snake Clan!"

The long whip descended. It was so fast that without his Supernatural Ability, he couldn't dodge in time.

The next second. Yan Qing vanished into thin air before her.

A giant snake as thick as a tree appeared in Chi Ling's cave.

She looked at the fire snake that had reared up, nearly touching the cave ceiling. Between its cold, green eyes, there was a flash of flame-like red, like a third eye.

Chi Ling suddenly let out a wild, arrogant laugh.

"Yan Qing, you don't actually think that by shifting into your Beast Form, you can be my match, do you?"

His voice in Beast Form was even hoarser, "You can try."

Half an hour later. A massive, crisp sound echoed. The Red Bone Snake's exoskeleton shattered with a bang under the constriction of the giant green snake.

The sharp, broken edges of the bones pierced into the green snake's body.

There seemed to be a hint of a smile in the green snake's eyes.

"Yan Qing, you cannot kill me! This is the contract set by the Snake King."

"But I can try!"

Yan Qing exerted force again, and another section of Chi Ling's bones snapped.

At the same time, more bone spurs pierced through his scales. But he seemed not to feel the pain. His eyes were fierce; he would strangle her to death today!

Suddenly, a burst of light exploded between them. The massive Energy flung them both to opposite ends of the cave.

Yan Qing fell to the ground. He shifted back into human form, with bone spurs embedded in many parts of his body. Yet, a smug smile hung on the corner of his lips.

Although the Old Snake King's contract did not allow them to kill each other, in Chi Ling's current state, even if she survived, she would at most be a Mid-level Beastman.

He staggered to his feet, preparing to leave. If he didn't return soon, his Mistress would be worried.

Suddenly, he smelled a strange fragrance. His vision went black.

Yan Qing reached out to steady himself against the wall and turned his head in the direction of the fragrance.

He saw that Tang Ruan had appeared behind him, not knowing when. The cave had also changed into the appearance of Wan Shou City.

Had he passed out? How did he get back?

"Yan Qing... Yan Qing, what's wrong with you?" She stumbled over.

Her small hands gestured helplessly in front of him for a moment. Finally, she supported him in a spot without any wounds.

"Yan Qing, why are you injured?" She began to sob.

He thought, his Mistress is a bit of a crybaby.

"It's nothing, I've taken care of Chi Ling. In the future, we will help the Beastmen rebuild their homes together."

"Okay, I'll help you lie down," she said suddenly and coyly.

Her little face was flushed, like a tender, pink fruit.

Was Tang Ruan being a bit too obedient? Given his Mistress's personality, shouldn't she be scolding him first, asking "Why are you injured?"

Then, she would anxiously use her Supernatural Ability to heal him.

But he had never let her see him injured before. He didn't know how she was supposed to react.

That's right! Why did he want her to see him injured? Why did he want to make her worry?

Yan Qing couldn't figure it out; he pounded his head, feeling a headache.

Suddenly, he noticed that Tang Ruan had already undressed and was lying on the soft couch, beckoning to him.

"Come here, I'll heal you..."
