Chapter 131: Action

"So what are you looking at?"

Leng Xiao said in a sour tone, "I have what he has, and I understand you even better than he does."

Yun Li felt that instantly grasping the meaning of his words sometimes made her embarrassed; she couldn't help but, angry and ashamed, pinch Leng Xiao and say, "I was just thinking about Ge's recent plans to form a Mate Bond with another female."

Hearing that, Leng Xiao's misunderstanding of Yun Li's attention to Ge deepened, but fortunately Yun Li reacted quickly, grabbed Leng Xiao's arm and said at a rapid pace:

"Isn't he about to form a Mate Bond with another female right away? If that female learns that Ge has been protecting another female these past days, will she misunderstand Ge?"

If that delays someone's lifelong matter, could Yun Li even insert herself into it?

Leng Xiao, upon hearing that, thought for a moment and said, "Then let him swap in a male who already has a Mate Bond; older and more experienced."

He doesn't have that many objections to Ge; it's simply a possessive desire toward his own female. When he sees Yun Li paying a bit more attention to another male, he can't help but get jealous.

The beasts at home have always turned a blind eye to his rivalry; as long as he doesn't go overboard, they just let him have his way.

After all, the Yun Li household now has only three males: one is his own older brother, who has tolerated his temperament since childhood; another is the First Beast Husband, who believes he has the capacity to accommodate the other Beast Husbands in the family.

Moreover, Yun Li is somewhat partial to Leng Xiao as a Beast Husband (specifically, when Leng Xiao clings to Yun Li, she rarely refuses or cannot refuse), which creates the situation where Leng Xiao, a jealous jar, flips over at the slightest provocation.

Thus Ji Xuan thinks Yun Li doesn't like him, and it must be said that Leng Xiao bears part of the blame.

"The First Beast Husband of Yun Li went to Five Salt Mountain. Although Ji Xuan is close to Yun Li, they also have no Mate Bond. Now only two Beast Husbands remain by her side, making it the perfect time to deal with them. Have you thought about how you'll revenge them?"

Miduo carried a bowl of medicine inside, watched Ji Chen take the medicine and immediately gulp it down, and only then did she mention that Mu Qing had already left the Tribe.

Her current situation is worrisome, so she can't help but hope other beasts fall into Ji Chen's hands like her, to taste what it's like when life is worse than death.

Especially since Yun Li is the female that Ji Xuan likes, she is even more eager to see her misfortune.

But Ji Chen has an unhurried demeanor; in a gentle tone he said to Miduo, "No rush, wait until my wound heals a bit more before we talk."

Miduo, having stayed beside Ji Chen these days, felt the whole beast almost driven mad by them; hearing him say they still have to wait, she erupted immediately.

"Wait, wait, wait! If you keep waiting, your eyes will go blind too; aren't you supposed to be capable? If you have the skill, bring over the beasts that injured you now and blind their eyes as well."

"Or are you scared? You're afraid that if you confront them again you'll die at their hands? You, a dog male who only bullies females, you're a useless waste!"

Snap!

With the sudden crash of a stone bowl, splintered debris instantly sliced across Miduo's cheek, delivering a sharp sting.

Yet Miduo had no time to worry whether her face was cut; instead she stared at the male on the bed whose complexion darkened, and an uncontrollable fear rose in her heart.

She feared him, that was indisputable.

Anyone whose limbs are crippled, when utterly powerless, encountering such merciless rape and the betrayal of their own male, will hate to the point of teeth itching.

But precisely because Ji Chen knows she hates him, his methods against her become even harsher.

Poisoning her life was only the first step; what broke Miduo beyond endurance was that Ji Chen commanded Ah Chang to carry out those things they had done on the bed.

Every time she recalled it, Miduo felt both dread and fear toward Ji Chen.

Ji Chen lifted his eyes, looked at Miduo, and asked, "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly, say it again?"

Miduo's complexion turned deathly pale, yet her eyes could not hide the hatred toward Ji Chen.

The Ah Chang who entered and saw the scene couldn't help but feel a sudden jolt in their hearts.

Ah Chang hurriedly pulled Miduo, his tense voice low, "A Duo, it's okay. I'm here!"

I will definitely protect you.

As long as he gets the antidote, he'll kill Ji Chen, as well as himself and the other males,

But Miduo had long stopped believing him; hearing his "I'm here," she only looked at him with a resentful, mocking gaze.

And need not mention those males who, after entering and seeing Miduo, whispered anxiously to ask Ji Chen what had happened; Miduo watched them believe whatever Ji Chen said, feeling deeply ironic inside.

"Lord Ji Chen, rest assured, A Duo is just a bit hot‑tempered, she definitely doesn't mean to insult you."

"Yes, yes, she's just been in a bad mood these days, don't argue with her."

Hearing that, Miduo let out a light snort behind Ah Chang.

Ji Chen's gaze darkened as he instantly swept toward Miduo, but Ah Chang silently blocked him.

"So, you also think I'm the waste she mentioned?"

Hearing that, the male standing nearest to Ji Chen hurriedly denied:

"Of course not. If Lord Ji Chen were a waste, what would we be? It's just..."

The male suddenly lowered his voice and whispered something into Ji Chen's ear.

Miduo, from behind Ah Chang, clearly saw a momentary astonishment on Ji Chen's face, followed by bulging veins on his forehead and his gaze turning icy; he quickly glanced toward herself.

But for some unknown reason, he forcibly suppressed the sudden anger that rose within him.

Ji Chen was silent for a moment, but ultimately couldn't contain the nausea in his heart and swung the stone jar at the bedside.

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

Miduo was startled by Ji Chen's inexplicable outburst, and what frightened her more was that his gaze at her seemed as if he wanted to tear her to pieces instantly.

After Ah Chang pulled Miduo out, she finally realized her fury.

He actually wants to kill her! Ji Chen dares!

Not mentioning that Ji Chen's abnormal behavior sparked Miduo's rebellious heart, Yun Li on this side had already taken action.

The matters Leng Xiao uncovered made Leng Xiu think of a good plan: expose the deeds that Ji Chen Am kept hidden from others.

Of course, Ji Chen Am is already dead; trying to capture Ji Chen Am and those males for such a scheme is impossible.

But, by bringing some of those deeds to light, making Ji Chen Am's former lovers fight each other, and exposing their close ties to Ji Chen Am to the Silver Eagle Clan Chief,

This only requires identifying who those former lovers are and what kind of temperament each male has, then it won't be difficult.

That night, a figure silently slipped onto the roof of Yun Li's house.

Unlike other beast families that had long extinguished their fires and gone to sleep, Yun Li's house, as reported, still had torches burning both inside and out well before midnight.

So those who came to first ascertain what the beasts looked like or whether there was a chance to poison them could only wait patiently; as the sounds inside gradually faded, only the courtyard torches remained unattended while the indoor torches had been out for a while.

The beastman then lightly and quietly jumped down from the roof and landed in the courtyard.

However, before they could take in the courtyard's surroundings and walk toward the house, a voice rang out from inside the house, growing from far to near.

"A Li and the cubs are all asleep, we can go out and speak."

Just that one sentence made the beastman who had already broken into the courtyard freeze in terror, press itself against the stone house, and hide behind the wall.
