218: Chapter 218 Could it be that she has already experienced everything she is going through?

"Enemy?" Hu Che stared at Guo Guo's unfocused purple eyes.

This pair of eyes was like an abyss.

When Hu Che used Mind Control on her, he didn't know if it was just his imagination.

He always felt as if there was a force resisting him.

It prevented him from concentrating, pulling him into her purple eyes as if he were about to sink into them.

But such a small Cub couldn't possibly have a Supernatural Ability.

In a daze, Hu Che shook his head.

He saw Guo Guo shake her head. His heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Not an enemy? Then is it— "Friend?"

Guo Guo shook her head again. "Partner?" She shook her head again.

He changed his approach and asked: "Do you know her?" She nodded.

"Do you see her often?" After hesitating for a moment, she nodded.

Hu Che held Guo Guo's hand, gradually tightening his grip, causing her little brow to furrow.

"Do you like her?" Guo Guo's brow furrowed even tighter.

She seemed to be thinking about whether she liked her or not.

After waiting for a long time, Hu Che saw her wanting to both shake and nod her head.

"Are you unsure?" She nodded.

"Are the injuries on your body caused by her?" She shook her head.

Hu Che took a deep breath. She indeed knew Princess Jiao Yi.

But they weren't enemies, not friends, not partners; she saw her often, but the injuries on her body weren't caused by Princess Jiao Yi, and she wasn't sure if she liked her...

If someone isn't sure if they like a person, it could be someone they aren't familiar with, or someone who has been good to them but also hurt them.

It could also be— herself.

As soon as this thought entered Hu Che's mind, he suddenly let go of Guo Guo, jumped off the bed, and walked two meters away before turning back.

Seeing that Guo Guo was still under the control of Mind Control, staring blankly at the cave ceiling, Hu Che walked back over.

"You are Princess Jiao Yi, aren't you?"

Guo Guo's face slowly turned toward him. Her purple eyes were like deep purple caves, bottomless.

Suddenly, she opened her mouth as if wanting to speak, but couldn't. Finally, she shook her head.

Hu Che let out a sigh of relief. That scared him to death.

Hu Che continued to ask: "Did Princess Jiao Yi get someone else to hurt you?"

Tears suddenly slid down the corners of Guo Guo's eyes. She must have thought of something terrifying, crying as she nodded.

Hu Che clenched his fists in anger. How could she lay a hand on such a small Cub? If Princess Jiao Yi wasn't dead, he would definitely tear her into a thousand pieces.

But, since it was Princess Jiao Yi who ordered others to hurt Guo Guo, why did she say Princess Jiao Yi wasn't her enemy? And why wasn't she sure if she liked her?

He suddenly thought of another question. Why would Princess Jiao Yi want to hurt such a small Cub? It couldn't be just because she looked like Tang Ruan!

He remembered Princess Jiao Yi's reaction when she first saw Tang Ruan at Beast God Mountain. It seemed she didn't know what Tang Ruan looked like beforehand. Hu Che's eyes lit up.

"She cuts you because it's useful to her!" Guo Guo nodded. "What use?" Guo Guo shook her head.

Hu Che suddenly remembered a rumor circulating among some Beastman tribes. Applying the blood of a young Female Beastman to one's skin could keep one eternally young.

However, because Female Beastmen were precious, and after the establishment of the Beast Kingdom, harming a Female Beastman resulted in very severe punishment, no Beastman dared to actually do this.

But the Jiao Clan was not under Yan Qing's jurisdiction. The Jiao Clan was very vain. They could even use their own Energy to make themselves more beautiful.

"Does Princess Jiao Yi want your blood?" Guo Guo nodded. Hu Che's heart ached.

"She uses your blood for herself. But you feel she usually treats you well. So, you don't know if you like her?" Guo Guo nodded while crying.

Hu Che suddenly picked her up and hugged her tightly in his arms.

This silly Cub, Princess Jiao Yi had people cut her with knives, yet she was still wondering whether she should like someone who hurt her.

He had just asked her, and the Jiao Clan member who brought her out wasn't her father. It was just the person responsible for delivering food to her and the prince.

She had never seen her parents and didn't know who they were. So, that must be why she developed a desire to like Princess Jiao Yi, who visited her often!

But that was someone who hurt her over and over again!

"Don't be afraid, Guo Guo. From now on, you can feel free to like Auntie Tang Ruan, like me and Uncle Lang Lie, and later you can also like a snake that looks a bit fierce, and a silly big bird. None of us will hurt you."

He kissed Guo Guo on the forehead, his heart aching. The little one didn't know if she understood, but two lines of tears slid down from the corners of her eyes.

On the other side. Tang Ruan tossed and turned for the seventh time. She bumped into Lang Lie's tightly closed eyes and realized he had already fallen asleep.

Oh no! She hadn't woken him up, had she?

Tang Ruan stared at Lang Lie's slightly curled eyelashes for a while, then moved her gaze up to his silver-gray short hair. The moonlight fell on his short hair, giving it a dreamy grayish-blue tint.

She remembered Duan Shi's hair, which seemed to be deep blue. Her gaze moved down to his light flaxen chest muscles, which were very sturdy. The muscles on his arms were also solid, rising and falling with his steady breathing, exuding a vigorous hormonal aura.

Tang Ruan suddenly felt that this scene was a bit familiar. In a daze, her gaze returned to his face.

Tang Ruan stared at his high-bridged nose and couldn't resist reaching out to touch it. The next second, Lang Lie opened his ice-blue eyes.

He really was better looking than any Western celebrity! Tang Ruan widened her eyes slightly and bit her lip.

A trace of surprise flashed in Lang Lie's eyes. He stared at her for a few seconds. Suddenly, he reached out to cup the back of her head. Without a word, he kissed her...

It wasn't until she woke up the next day that she remembered why she felt that scene yesterday was so familiar. That was the scene from the first time she dreamed of Lang Lie!

The dream had appeared again! Could it be that everything she was currently experiencing, she had already experienced once before? Just like those reincarnation novels?

Then did she reincarnate from her original world into the Beast World? Or did she reincarnate from the Beast World into her "original world"? And then, after an accident, she traveled back?

Why would she reincarnate? Didn't novels always say that it should be because of huge regrets or immense grievances that the Heavenly Dao allowed for reincarnation to make amends? Tang Ruan got dizzy from her own thoughts.

Fortunately, at that moment, Lang Lie's hearty voice came from outside the cave, saving her from her headache.

"Tang Ruan, let's set off after you've washed up. We'll take Guo Guo with us!" Tang Ruan immediately put on a smile, "Okay!"

The group planned to go to Central City. Then they would have Yan Qing look for a Witch Doctor who could identify blood relations.

Although Guo Guo's Beast Form was that of the Jiao Clan, it didn't rule out the possibility that she and Tang Ruan came from the same ancestor, which was why they looked so much alike.

Central City was located right in the center of many cities. Tang Ruan and her group passed by Yang City again.

They had intended to leave quietly, but their attention was drawn by Beastmen running one after another toward the volcano.

Hu Che casually stopped a young Male Beastman. "Big brother, what's happening over there?"

"Sea Beasts! Sea Beasts have emerged from the volcano!"
