The other, a small, black, beady eye, looked utterly chilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore an outfit of animal hide, but it was unlike any she had seen before. It was incredibly smooth, as if made from the skin of some aquatic beastman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it was you who suddenly slowed down my Demon Beast Army.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong spoke, his voice as hoarse as sandpaper grating against a wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, it was me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi knew that her chances of finding Qiao Lie and escaping on her own were slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, her first step was to prove her value to the demon beasts. Only then would she have a chance to find a way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you do it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a hint of panic, Qiao Xixi lifted her chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am a Priest, and this is my Secret Technique. Why would I share it with demon beasts who want me dead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You won’t talk? Aren’t you afraid of death?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am. But would my fear stop you from killing me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"HAHAHA! I’ve never met a female as bold as you. However...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong’s expression soured. \"What I hate most are females like you who show me no respect! Drag her to the female dens.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi’s expression faltered. ’Demon beasts really are different from regular beastmen. There’s something wrong with all of their heads!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"City Lord, we have a problem! Sunxiao has injured another guard in the cells.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A demon beast rushed in, followed by another carrying a Hyena Demon Beast who was missing a hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hyena Demon Beast’s face was already turning black, and his body convulsed as he was carried. It was clear he wasn’t going to make it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong shot to his feet, his expression furious as he looked at the Hyena Demon Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How many does that make?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"City Lord, this is the tenth one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong roared, \"In just five days, he’s taken out ten of my demon beasts! Does he really think I can’t kill him?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi glanced at the Hyena Demon Beast, then spoke slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can keep him alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong’s head snapped toward Qiao Xixi. \"What did you say? You can cure Sunxiao’s deadly poison?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then do it. If you keep him alive, I’ll make you the healer of Demon Beast City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi picked up a cup from the stone table and poured a little water into it. Then, as she turned away, she secretly added some water from the Spiritual Spring in her storage space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Xiao Yao, this Spiritual Spring water can dilute toxins, right? At least for a short while?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Host, you made such a bold promise to the City Lord without even knowing if you could deliver? Aren’t you afraid he’ll just have you killed?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi’s eye twitched. ’Worst case, I’ll use the Invisibility Cloak to slip away. But that’s a last resort.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She made a show of stirring the cup, then handed it to the messenger demon beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have him drink this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon beast looked to Hei Zong. After Hei Zong nodded, he fed the water to the Hyena Demon Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the Spiritual Spring water was down, the poison in the Hyena Demon Beast’s body was rapidly neutralized. The dark pallor of his face slowly began to fade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, the Hyena Demon Beast coughed up a mouthful of foul-smelling black blood and staggered to his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"City Lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Astonished, Hei Zong circled the Hyena Demon Beast, sniffing at him. He could clearly sense that the poison’s potency had greatly diminished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong waved a hand, dismissing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he looked back at Qiao Xixi, his expression was completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You really are different from the other females. From this day forward, you are the healer of my Demon Beast City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hei Zong had a demon beast lead Qiao Xixi away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi followed the male Wild Bull Demon Beast, her eyes surveying the Demon Beast City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t a large place, but compared to the Black Stone Tribe, it was on another level of civilization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could you show me around Demon Beast City?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wild Bull Demon Beast stopped and gave her a scrutinizing look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The City Lord said the new healer should rest first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi understood. The City Lord definitely didn’t trust her; she would just have to wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m curious, what do you do with all the cubs you capture?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi asked, feigning casualness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wild Bull Demon Beast didn’t think much of it. \"Our City Lord plans to train them into powerful demon beasts to strengthen our Demon Beast City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How are they trained?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wild Bull Demon Beast gave her a strange look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi’s expression remained impassive. \"I’m the healer now. Is it a problem for me to understand what goes on in the city?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This reason seemed to satisfy the Wild Bull Demon Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Over there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised a hand, pointing toward something outside the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi followed his gesture and could just make out a circular clearing in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is that place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Beast Fighting Arena. Only the cubs who survive in there are worthy of becoming powerful demon beasts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi’s expression faltered, her fists clenched tightly at her sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wild Bull Demon Beast led her to a stone room at the very end of the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the healer’s room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xixi nodded and went inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room’s furnishings were simple: a stone bed, a table, and a stool. Nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worried sick about Qiao Lie, Qiao Xixi couldn’t calm down at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wild Bull Demon Beast watched her enter, then stood guard outside the door, showing no intention of leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s impossible to do anything during the day,’ she thought. ’I’ll have to wait for nightfall to make my move.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of footsteps echoed outside the dungeon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Lie, who had been resting with his eyes closed against the stone wall, opened them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pair of eerie green eyes appeared at the small opening in the cell door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was shocked to see Qiao Lie still sitting in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This snake cub is still alive? Sunxiao didn’t kill the little whelp?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao opened his eyes, sweeping an icy glare over the demon beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When their eyes met, the demon beast felt a surge of fear and wanted to look away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take this snake whelp to the Beast Fighting Arena.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Lie stiffened and shot Sunxiao a cold glare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just kill him. Why bother taking him to the Beast Fighting Arena?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sunxiao’s long tail whipped toward the cell door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive impact shook the entire dungeon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afraid Sunxiao would tear the whole cell apart, the demon beast had no choice but to open the door and turn to Qiao Lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Snake whelp! You! Get over here, now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Lie got to his feet. Just as he was about to step out of the cell, Sunxiao’s voice rang out again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If he doesn’t die, bring him back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demon beast quickly pulled Qiao Lie out and slammed the cell door shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he was out, Qiao Lie saw Bai Qi and the young green snake, Qing Bo, waiting there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides them, there were several other young cubs from various beast clans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After shutting the cell door, the demon beast turned and glared viciously at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Move it! Hurry up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cubs numbly followed the demon beast out of the dungeon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qing Bo walked behind Qiao Lie, his voice barely a whisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... you have to fight hard in there. Do whatever it takes to come back alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1338,"2026-06-10T05:17:12.488Z",1,"novelbin.me","bac13e1f29f7346eb348485df084366c446b85eba0fe2fada9b6a9206e02aa4b","i-transmigrated-as-a-villainess-to-raise-babies--chapter-53","i-transmigrated-as-a-villainess-to-raise-babies--chapter-51",293,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-transmigrated-as-a-villainess-to-raise-babies--cover.jpg"]
