58: Chapter 58 Gouge out her eyes!

Late at night, a spark of fire appeared on the back mountain.

Yan Qing looked in that direction and frowned.

Did a fire start?

At the foot of the mountain.

Tang Ruan held a torch, moving quickly through the night.

To avoid She Lei, she had changed the time for feeding the snakes to the evening.

After feeding the snakes, Tang Ruan had just stepped out of the cave.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side.

It grabbed her and pinned her against the wall with a backhand motion.

"Give yourself to me, little Female Beastman, I beg you... I feel so uncomfortable... Please, save me!"

A Male Beastman pressed himself against Tang Ruan.

"Get lost!"

Tang Ruan lifted her leg and kicked him directly in the groin.

But the other party seemed to have anticipated it and jumped away instantly.

Transforming into his Beast Form, he lunged at her again.

Tang Ruan was knocked to the ground.

The Giant Weasel Beast opened its bloody maw and greedily sniffed at Tang Ruan's neck.

"So you like it like this; isn't the Beast Form more exciting..."

Tang Ruan couldn't struggle free and turned her face away.

Suddenly, she saw the shadows of the trees moving not far away.

"Hu Che!" she shouted loudly.

At the same time, she slashed the stone knife in her hand toward the Giant Weasel Beast's throat.

The Giant Weasel Beast pinned her hand down.

The stone knife flew away, and he transformed back into his human form.

"That useless Beast Husband of yours? Even if he comes, it's no use."

Actually, Tang Ruan wasn't sure if it was Hu Che in the woods.

She just wanted to distract him.

But clearly, it failed.

"If you dare to touch me, I will kill you!" Tang Ruan threatened.

"After mating with me, you won't want to... no..."

The Weasel Beast suddenly clutched his own neck.

Fresh blood flowed out between his fingers.

The bright red blood, like boiling magma, caused the Male Beastman's skin to rapidly swell and fester wherever it flowed.

Tang Ruan was so scared that she hurriedly scrambled to the side.

Leaning against the wall, her body couldn't stop trembling.

Yan Qing slowly walked out of the forest.

His emerald eyes turned into vertical pupils, staring coldly at Tang Ruan.

"Who told you to come to a place like this so late?"

"I... I..." Tang Ruan's brain went blank.

Shouldn't he deal with this Male Beastman first?

She looked at the Weasel Beast.

Only to see his body twisting in pain.

The skin on his body festering and burning...

He roared in pain, but his throat had been cut, so he couldn't make a sound.

Yan Qing wasn't actually killing him directly.

But rather... torturing him.

"I am asking you a question."

Yan Qing took two more steps toward her.

"I... I came to feed the snakes. The me... method I mentioned for the Snake Tribe to produce Female Beastmen has already yielded results!"

She used all her strength to finish speaking and curled up into a ball.

The scene before her, the Yan Qing in the distance—none of it was not terrifying.

She didn't even have a direction to escape in.

Seeing her scared appearance.

Yan Qing's vertical pupils gradually returned to normal.

His expression relaxed.

He reached out his hand toward her.

"Come here."

Tang Ruan: ...

"If you are afraid, come to my side."

Tang Ruan's legs were weak, and she slowly walked two steps.

Yan Qing suddenly took a step forward and pulled her over.

He put his arm around her shoulders, but his eyes looked elsewhere.

"I will take you back first."

His lower body transformed into a snake form, and he carried her quickly through the forest.

After Yan Qing and Tang Ruan left.

The human-formed Hu Che walked out of the forest.

Holding a sharp knife in his hand.

He walked up to the Weasel Beast.

And crouched down.

"Save me... save... I beg you..."

The Weasel Beast struggled to make a few syllables from his scorched throat.

Hu Che's knife stabbed into his groin.

"Ah!" The Weasel Beast let out a scream.

"So, you still know pain?" Hu Che's lips curled into a smile.

A trace of blood-red stained his golden eyes, "Then I can only make you pay a little more price before you go."

"Ah! Kill... I beg you... Ah! Ah! Kill me!"

The Weasel Beast's screams echoed from the forest.

Tang Ruan buried her head in the crook of Yan Qing's arm.

The feeling of being burned to death by one's own blood must be very painful...

She didn't want to hear these sounds, but she wouldn't plead for him either.

This was what he deserved.

She Ming and Bai Ye watched as Yan Qing carried Tang Ruan out of the forest.

She Ming was completely stunned.

He clearly saw the Snake King chasing after Hu Che when he went in.

Why did he carry Tang Ruan out?

She Ming's expression froze for a few seconds—he understood!

It must be that Hu Che was unwilling.

So the Snake King took his Mistress away.

This way, Hu Che would have to follow.

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

Hurried footsteps came from behind.

Hu Che chased after them, his body covered in spots of blood.

Yan Qing glanced backward.

"Wash up before you follow. From today on, you two will move near me to live."

Hu Che clenched his fists and nodded slightly.

"Yes."

In front of an absolutely powerful Male Beastman, he didn't even have the right to say "no."

If Yan Qing hadn't been a step faster than him tonight, he dared not imagine what would have happened.

He must become stronger, he must!

Hu Che followed dejectedly behind.

She Ming looked at Hu Che's back...

Ahhh! Did the Snake King just tell him to wash up and follow?

And told them to—move nearby!

Then today, does he need to guard from further away from the Snake King?

If he saw something he shouldn't see...

She Ming's face was flushed red beneath the darkness in the moonlight.

Bai Ye looked at their retreating figures scrutinizingly.

"What is the relationship between the Snake King and that Female Beastman?"

"No relationship. What matters is... didn't you see it?" She Ming said excitedly.

Waiting for Bai Ye to grasp the information he hadn't spoken out loud.

Bai Ye sneered.

No relationship? Does he think he's a fool!

He was going to tell Lady Chi Ling.

The next day.

Not only did Tang Ruan and Hu Che move next door to Yan Qing.

Even her snakes had people specifically assigned to watch over them.

"These snakes are related to the future of the Snake Tribe, so they must be taken care of well."

Inside the new cave, Yan Qing said to Tang Ruan.

His gaze fell on her face, emphasizing: "You are the same."

Tang Ruan nodded obediently.

So, he rushed to save her last night.

Was it because he knew her experiment had yielded results?

How did he know?

"From now on, just focus on your work. I will have someone deliver food for you and your Beast Husband. If you need anything, just tell me."

Yan Qing said, his gaze falling on Hu Che, who was to the side.

He said pointedly: "Do what you are supposed to do first, then think about other things."

The Male Beastman guarding the city told him that Hu Che went to the Poisonous Forest almost every day.

But he wasn't going there to hunt.

Instead, he would lie at a fixed spot for an entire day, as if waiting for someone.

He would only rush to catch prey and return when the sun went down.

Sometimes, he would even go at night after Tang Ruan had fallen asleep.

His physical form had clearly recovered long ago.

Yet he deliberately appeared in his lowest form in front of her to gain sympathy.

It was simply too insidious.

As for the Weasel Beast from last night, he had originally intended to burn him to death slowly.

Today, the Male Beastman who went to clean up told him that the Weasel Beast's body had been stabbed with dozens of holes.

Every stab was in the most painful spots...

By her side, there was actually such a devious and ruthless Beast Husband.

Yan Qing felt very uneasy.

However, it seemed he shouldn't be concerned about these things...

Forget it, taking care of her a bit more would just be for the sake of the Snake Tribe's future.

After three incubation experiments.

Tang Ruan could be certain that when the fourth leaf of the chill-sensing grass turned orange, it was the safest and most secure incubation temperature for female snakes!

Tang Ruan was ecstatic and carried the jar containing the newborn snake to find Yan Qing.

Soon, he would be able to help her find Lang Lie.

She heard that Yan Qing had many cities; there is strength in numbers!

At the cave entrance, she was stopped by She Ming.

"Not now."

"Why?"

She Ming made an exaggerated expression, "There is a tigress inside."

He was now responsible for delivering prey to Tang Ruan.

He often stayed there to mooch meals.

Over time, he became friends with Tang Ruan.

It was just a pity that their Snake King didn't like Female Beastmen.

"A Tiger Beast? From the Outer City?" Tang Ruan asked curiously.

Wasn't it forbidden for people from the Outer City to enter the Inner City?

"A Tiger Beast? What kind of small thing is that? If you had seen this one's Beast Form, it would scare you to death. She is the fiercest Female Beastman I have ever seen—"

"Ahem!"

Tang Ruan coughed violently.

Reminding She Ming and also attracting the attention of the Female Beastman who walked out of the cave.

The Female Beastman wore red soft armor, had a tall figure, and her smooth muscle lines were full of vitality.

Tang Ruan had always admired this type of physique in women.

She couldn't help but take a few extra looks.

"Audacious Female Beastman, who allowed you to stare at Lady Chi Ling like that! Dig out her eyeballs for me!"
