Chapter 659: Beast Tribe World: Raising a Wife 34

~7 min read 1,354 words

Bai Mo also noticed the commotion, turned around and saw Hua Wan pick up a large stone from the ground and throw it at him.

Dodging, Bai Mo's expression turned cold and severe; he drew the short dagger Jin Chen had made for his self-defense from his sleeve, and taking advantage of Hua Wan being thrown off balance by the stone's inertia, he viciously stabbed downward.

"Ah—"

The shrill scream attracted everyone present in the fight; Luo Wen and the others, seeing Hua Wan injured, were even more anxious and distressed than if they themselves were hurt.

How could Jin Chen let such a good opportunity pass?

Beast claws infused with spiritual power gouged out from midair without mercy, even the golden fur shining brightly in the sunlight seemed to emit a sharp edge.

Luo Wen and the others suffered successive injuries; moreover, with A Zhou assisting from the side, even several worms eventually collapsed, lying on their backs with legs in the air, unable to turn over for a long time.

The outcome of the fight was beyond doubt; the three males, including Luo Wen, were covered in scale-like wounds, blood flowing incessantly, each injury inflicted by Jin Chen.

The golden lion roared again, mighty and awe-inspiring; before it lay three defeated lions unable to rise, and an almost dismembered armored beetle.

Behind it were two brown lions absolutely loyal to it, equally imposing.

Meanwhile, Hua Wan had been stabbed; strangely, a peculiar fragrance emanated from his blood, very similar to the scent Bai Mo had smelled in his cave that day.

Bai Mo found it odd, staring at Hua Wan in surprise several times, "What on earth have you done? Your body has become so strange."

"It has nothing to do with you, putting on a false show for whom!"

Hua Wan had gone mad, actually trying to make the worms still inside the bamboo tube drink blood; Bai Mo sensed something wrong and directly snatched the bamboo tube away.

"You're crazy!"

"Give it back!"

The two voices sounded almost simultaneously; Bai Mo didn't expect that, despite his injury, he still had such strength, his arm was seized and he couldn't move, only able to grab the bamboo tube and throw it toward Jin Chen's direction.

Jin Chen caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye; as he ran over to catch the bamboo tube, he instantly shifted to human form and took the dagger from Bai Mo's hand.

The blade pressed against Hua Wan's neck; grabbing his head, he slammed it hard against the cave wall behind him.

"You dare move him." His voice had become icy to the extreme.

Jin Chen endured the stench emanating from that person, confirmed Hua Wan could no longer fight back, then casually tossed him to the ground.

At this point, the area outside the cave finally fell silent.

Meanwhile, even before Jin Chen and Luo Wen fought, the tribespeople who had been watching from outside the half‑person‑high grass clump had fallen into a mute silence.

Those who naturally believed Bai Mo were overjoyed; anyone could see the problem lay with Hua Wan, for otherwise which normal sub‑beast could control worms?

And for the other half who firmly believed in the Beast God's will regarding Hua Wan, the feeling was downright nauseating, worse than eating rotten meat.

Unbelievably, there actually are beast people who dare to use the Beast God Sir as a name to deceive others.

The chief stepped forward first; before he even spoke, he saw Luo Wen and the others, finally recovered, rushing to help Hua Wan up.

He didn't even care about the gazes of so many people.

Jin Chen embraced Bai Mo and stepped forward; A Zhou also hurried to speak the truth, leaving no detail untold.

Although several doubts remain unresolved to this day.

For example, where did Hua Wan learn this strange ability? Why can his blood drive the worms, and even make Luo Wen and the others unable to stop?

But there is no doubt that Hua Wan is the murderer; he also sought to lead the tribespeople, framing Bai Wan to drive him out.

This alone is enough to make everyone furious; moreover, Jin Chen added that the larvae of these worms have already broken out of their eggshells.

If not cleared in time, it would likely bring the tribe an insect‑plague disaster.

And the instigator of all this is Hua Wan.

Hua Wan, supported by Luo Wen, now that everything has been exposed, cannot escape his fate.

He also simply stopped pretending; beneath the deliberately maintained composure lay an astonishing jealousy.

"Bai Mo, you've beaten me again."

Hua Wan's voice was weak, but the resentment in his eyes was utterly undisguised.

Bai Mo lowered his eyes, "I never thought of competing with you."

Every time, he was forced into the situation.

"I despise your air of thinking yourself superior."

Hua Wan loathed that appearance of his, "Back in the Leopard Tribe, you and I were clearly both ostracized sub‑beasts."

"Your white hair, blue eyes, and pale complexion are extremely strange; I am ordinary to the point of being unnoticeable. I originally thought you were just dust like me, but in fact you are the priest's child."

"You say you don't intend to compare with me, but when has anyone ever not compared me to you?"

Bai Mo didn't understand his thinking, only finding it absurd, "Then you should direct your anger at those who compare us."

He shook his head, buried himself in Jin Chen's embrace, rubbing against him, unwilling to speak further.

Even saying one more word would shorten one's lifespan.

"Hua Wan! You used the Beast God's will to deceive the tribespeople! Utterly absurd!"

The chief's voice rang loud as a bell; he had several people pull the bewildered Luo Wen and the others away, then rebuked them in front of everyone.

Hua Wan chuckled a few times; his tail, torn in the recent struggle, curled up as he covered his wound and glanced at everyone.

But he also just wanted to taste the feeling of being surrounded by admiring stars; why is everyone coming to blame him?

"The Beast God… fake! It's all fake!"

He pointed at Bai Mo's face, "Only him!"

"Only his curse is real!"

But coincidentally, the silver mark on Bai Mo's brow flickered again, this time accompanied by a burning heat; he was startled and quickly covered it.

But it was already too late.

Those who had just been drawn to the attention all saw it clearly; the crowd immediately erupted in successive gasps.

"Good heavens… did I see wrong?"

"Bai Mo's mark actually moves… how frightening!"

Why? Does he actually have a curse on him?

Everyone was chattering, Hua Wan hadn't expected this scene; he let out a surprised laugh, both delighted and excited.

See?! You all saw it, right?! Bai Mo's markings flash! He's also abnormal!

Even if this incident wasn't his doing, he will eventually bring great disaster to the tribe!

Hua Wan seemed to have finally grabbed a handle, using it as an excuse to act recklessly.

Even if he sinks into the mire, Bai Mo won't be able to stand by cleanly and coldly observe!

Mo Mo, don't be afraid.

Jin Chen patted his back reassuringly, preparing to let 0731 come out to disguise as the Beast God, in order to put an end to those who hear wind and think it's rain from making wild guesses.

At this moment, the Priestess came out leaning on her cane, her expression fervent, trembling as she reached to take Bai Mo's hand.

Child! Child…… Have you ever learned from your Amu the song of communion with the Great Beast God?

Bai Mo didn't understand what she meant, but he still nodded, saying, "I have learned it, but Amu said I lack the Priestess's talent, and never let me chant."

Sing! Chant it now!

The Priestess urged him on, her icy eyes still incredibly perceptive.

Perhaps you can not only inherit your Amu's chanting talent, but also… also directly converse with the Beast God!
