88: Chapter 88 The Best Time
Although Tang Ruan had seen many scenes of Male Beastmen slaughtering prey.
But Male Beastmen generally do not let Female Beastmen do it.
Even if it is not their own Mistress, they wouldn't.
They believe that letting a Female Beastman slaughter prey is a sign of a Male Beastman's incompetence.
Therefore, this was actually the first time Tang Ruan had taken a life.
She had eaten many Grass Bamboo Rats.
But looking at an innocent little life, gazing at her in fear, kicking its limbs desperately to survive.
Then, slowly dying in her hands...
Tang Ruan's gaze deepened...
She suddenly released her hand.
The Grass Bamboo Rat darted into the grass.
She still couldn't do it...
---
After having breakfast with Yan Qing, he suggested wanting to look around.
Tang Ruan agreed.
Perhaps they could find new clues about Lang Lie.
They walked together to the stone wall that Lang Lie had once cracked with a single punch.
Yan Qing saw her staring blankly.
He asked: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing..."
It was here that she first formally rejected Lang Lie.
Yan Qing rubbed his chin, deep in thought.
"He has an Ice-type Supernatural Ability."
Tang Ruan: !
Tang Ruan turned to look at him, afraid he would be jealous.
Just as she wanted to say something.
Yan Qing spoke first: "That's good, when it gets hot, he can accompany you."
"Huh?"
Is it... allowed to be like this?
Actually, she wanted to say that Lang Lie's body wasn't cold at all...
But since he was so generous, she wouldn't say anything more.
Hehehe...
Yan Qing saw her smile.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
He couldn't bear to see her looking distressed, every time he saw it.
He wished he could give the entire Beast World to her.
The two walked a bit further and arrived in front of the cave where the monsters were imprisoned.
The opening in the cave had now been completely sealed.
It was Baby who did it.
"Do you want to go in and see?" Yan Qing asked.
Tang Ruan instinctively shrank back.
The scene she saw that day still felt terrifying when she thought about it now.
But, thinking that there were memories of Baby and Lang Lie here.
She wanted to go in again.
Yan Qing saw her hesitating.
He simply picked her up.
"We are together, nothing dares to hurt you."
The cave was pitch black.
Yan Qing raised his finger.
A ball of fire floated into the air, illuminating the inside of the cave.
Faint traces of blood were visible on the walls.
But there were no remains of any Beastmen left.
Because at the time, they had been eaten clean by the monsters.
Tang Ruan shivered in his arms.
"Don't be afraid...
If you really don't want to stay here, we can go out."
Yan Qing's gaze quickly scanned the cave.
There was indeed a very powerful formation here, used to Seal the monsters behind.
He could still hear the cries of the monsters here.
At least... several hundred.
One by one, although he could solve them.
But even for him, it would be a fierce battle.
Furthermore, he could not spare the Energy to protect Tang Ruan.
Such powerful things, controlled by such a powerful formation in such a hidden place.
Who did it?
Yan Qing felt a sudden shock in his heart.
He didn't know who did it before.
But later, wasn't the repair of the formation done by a Cub that hadn't even been born yet?
How could he... manage to do it?
Unless his ancestors were the Beastmen who sealed these monsters.
"Tang Ruan, do you have no idea what kind of Beastman Lang Lie's father is?" he suddenly asked seriously.
Tang Ruan looked at him.
Since he asked this, he must have learned of their conversation from Mayor Ma Ming.
Tang Ruan didn't hide it, "He doesn't want to mention it.
I only know that when he transformed into his Beast Form, he couldn't control his own power.
And he killed Lang Lie's mother."
That must have been a very terrifying Beast Form.
Yan Qing had seen many Beastmen with terrifying and tall Beast Forms on the Snake Tribe's murals.
But since he was born until now.
The most powerful Beast Form he had ever seen was the Red Bone Snake Clan.
His gaze fell on the ghost crystal around Tang Ruan's neck.
The higher the level of the Beastman, the better they could determine the race and Supernatural Ability of the ghost crystal.
But for Tang Ruan's Cub's, apart from seeing that the Energy level was about level seven.
He couldn't tell anything else at all.
"Let's go back..."
Yan Qing carried Tang Ruan and walked out.
This place was indeed dangerous.
The two left the cave.
Yan Qing put Tang Ruan on the ground.
Tang Ruan looked back at the cave deeply, and then walked into the forest with him.
In the forest of Dongdong Valley, there were many poisonous insects.
After walking for a while, Tang Ruan remembered.
Before leaving, she had brought an insect-repellent belt for Yan Qing.
She had actually forgotten to give it to him.
"Yan Qing, tie this on.
It can repel insects."
She untied an ugly grass rope from her waist.
Yan Qing stared at it with some disdain.
He had just noticed that his Mistress was wearing two ugly grass ropes on her waist.
But because she was wearing them, he didn't think they were particularly ugly.
Instead, he felt they had a rather exotic charm.
He even thought it was a custom here.
As it turned out, it was for repelling insects?
"No need."
"There are many poisonous insects here!" Tang Ruan exaggeratedly unfolded the insect-repellent belt, reached around his back, and wanted to help him tie it.
Suddenly, she saw an insect the size of a fingernail flying towards Yan Qing's waist.
She was just about to raise her hand to shoo it away.
She saw that the insect, at a distance of about ten centimeters from him, suddenly turned into black powder...
A breeze blew, and it disappeared.
Not even a speck of dust landed on him...
Tang Ruan: ...
"So you don't need it..."
Awkward.
She knew nothing about the world of level ten Beastmen.
How could he possibly be troubled by small insects?
Yan Qing looked at Tang Ruan's posture while helping him tie the belt; it looked like she was actively hugging him.
His heart was gradually turning happy, and seeing her about to pull back.
He pulled her into his arms.
The two collided tightly.
Tang Ruan looked up, confused.
"How can you only do half the job?" his voice was hoarse.
"Huh?"
"Help me tie it, and make a more complex knot so it doesn't fall off."
Tang Ruan blinked.
"Oh..."
Could it be that her eyes were playing tricks on her just now?
Yan Qing looked at her with deepening eyes, pressed against his body.
Her soft little hands were busy behind him.
The corners of his mouth curled up.
He liked the feeling of her leaning entirely on him.
The two strolled in the forest for a while longer.
During this time, Tang Ruan collected some medicinal herbs.
Yan Qing very naturally helped her store them in his space.
When he was about to touch a red plant.
Tang Ruan suddenly stopped him sharply.
"Don't touch it!"
Yan Qing obediently didn't touch it, straightened his waist, and looked at her inquiringly—
She was very nervous.
He frowned, watching her pick up the plant and hurriedly tuck it into the pouch at her waist.
"This is something I'm going to give to someone later."
Yan Qing didn't probe further: "Okay."
---
At noon, the Beastmen of Dongdong Valley prepared a sumptuous meal and delivered it directly to the entrance of Tang Ruan's cave.
Lang Mo saw the two of them return.
He excitedly stepped forward and knelt on one knee.
"Lord Snake King, lunch has been prepared for you.
Do you want to eat by yourself, or with everyone?"
He looked up, gazing at Yan Qing with burning eyes.
His pitch-black eyes were full of admiration.
Tang Ruan had noticed since yesterday.
The way these four wolves looked at Yan Qing was even more intense than when they saw Female Beastmen.
She guessed that Yan Qing's status in their hearts.
Was probably equivalent to boxing enthusiasts seeing a world-class boxing champion.
Full of worship in their hearts and eyes.
"Let's eat with everyone...
But I don't like it too noisy.
Just you four is fine."
His gaze fell into the distance.
Lang Chi, Lang Feng, and Lang Yu who were standing in the distance...
Each one was so nervous that their fists were clenched tight, and the veins on their arms were popping out.
Lang Yu had fair skin, and it turned red directly.
If one didn't know better, they would think they were in heat towards Yan Qing...
Tang Ruan smiled awkwardly.
Why did she have the feeling that she was so redundant?
Following the strong is the nature of the Wolf Tribe.
The four wolves were full of curiosity about Yan Qing and full of curiosity about the outside world.
Yan Qing was generous and answered every question.
At first, they asked quite cautiously.
After discovering that Yan Qing was willing to talk to them.
This meal gradually turned into an idol meet-and-greet.
"Were you a level ten Beastman when you were born?"
Yan Qing nodded slightly.
"Oh my god! Level ten!
The most powerful Beastman I've ever seen was level one!" Lang Chi said with admiration.
"Level ten, is it true that with a flick of a finger, an entire Tribe would be gone!" Lang Yu's voice trembled slightly.
"It's not that extreme." Yan Qing placed a plate of seasoned roasted meat within Tang Ruan's reach.
He continued: "But if I wanted to wipe them out, it would only be a matter of time.
However, I never slaughter the innocent..."
Tang Ruan silently picked up a piece of meat.
She felt that the four wolves in front of her were about to transform into their Beast Forms and howl loudly.
She was so redundant, but...
She suddenly thought.
They are all here; isn't this the best opportunity to wipe out Lang Yue?
