Chapter 146: Hostility

~4 min read 626 words

Wu Yue's gaze toward the several middle-aged beastmen around her was full of sympathy; this kind of ferocious beast, the Shun Yuan, is simply the nightmare of all males.

After all, they were grasshoppers on the same rope, but Wu Yue still reached out and grasped the bottle of poison in her hand.

"What should we do now?"

She felt her throat tighten a little.

Looking at that scarlet-eyed beast drooling as it stared this way, she inexplicably felt a bad premonition.

"Looking at them, they don't seem to lack mates; they seem more like they want to eat us."

Yuan Qi spoke with a twitching corner of his mouth.

Wu Yue remained silent; frankly, she thought the same.

Yesterday, when that Shun Yuan saw all those males, it didn't drool like this.

But the next scene refreshed the worldviews of the beastmen and Wu Yue once again.

Only to see the Shun Yuan's scarlet eyes lose their drool, and it suddenly turned its head to look at Wu Yue, its eyes full of provocation and killing intent.

Wu Yue: "..."

I fucking...

"What the hell does that mean? It's so sudden!"

The beastmen fell silent: "..."

Yuan Qi took a moment to regain his voice: "Wu Yue, did you offend this Shun Yuan?"

Wu Yue chuckled: "Uncle, you really think too highly of me; this is our first meeting."

But...

Although it seemed absurd, she still thought of a possibility.

Could it be that these Shun Yuan regard her as a mate for all the beastmen?

Besides that reason, she really couldn't think of any other cause.

She bitterly smiled and muttered: "As the saying goes, why make things difficult for women? If you have any business, go find those few over there; why direct such hostility at me?"

The middle-aged beastman warriors beside her wore resentful faces: "Little female, as a member of the team, you really ought to divert some of the Shun Yuan's attention from us."

Wu Yue gave a bitter smile: "This isn't just a little bit!"

While they were still talking, the two Shun Yuan opposite them beat their developed chests—or whatever—with roars, then strode over on their thick legs.

However, during the course of their running, the differential treatment of males and females was quite obvious.

When they looked at the middle-aged beastmen, it was absolutely a gentle breeze; but when they turned toward her, it became a raging storm.

Wu Yue had no doubt that if she fell into the hands of those two Shun Yuan later, she would fare far worse than the beastmen.

"Host, the system is in hand, you have the poison—don't be careless."

Tongzi wore a brand-new pair of suspender shorts, his shiny little leather shoes bouncing on the panel as he cheered on his host with "woo woo woo".

Wu Yue tugged at the corner of her mouth: "Tongzi, I feel we're doomed today; males taken back are forced to do that, but as a female, they definitely won't bring me back."

Tongzi looked puzzled: "Why?"

Wu Yue gave a weathered look at the approaching Shun Yuan: "Have you ever seen a bride kidnapping where they bring the wife back? They'd have to kill her."

System: "..."

Although I haven't watched many TV dramas, I feel it makes sense.

These two Shun Yuan seemed like seasoned offenders, actually blocking off the escape routes of the several people front and back, as if they were determined to get the beastmen's bodies and Wu Yue's life.

"You damned host, now isn't the time to lament misfortune; you need to think of a way to escape."

The system said its little clothes and snacks haven't been enjoyed yet; it doesn't want to die, it seeks survival.
