Beauty and the Beasts

Chapter 1032: Behemoth Tide

Bai Qingqing held onto the half-eaten fried dough twist with her mouth, carried An’an with one hand, and the bowl of fried dough twists with the other, then headed down.

“What happened? Many beastmen ran out.” She came across Winston, who was about to go out to check things out. Bai Qingqing quickly walked over and asked him.

At this moment, the leopard cubs came dashing in from the backyard as well, raising their heads and crying out twice before running out crazily.

“Children?” The last note of Bai Qingqing’s words had just dropped when the leopard cubs had already passed by her and ran into the rain.

“It seems that they are all leopard beastmen too.” At the thought of the group of golden leopard figures, Bai Qingqing thought of Parker. Her countenance turned pale. “It couldn’t be that something has happened to Parker, right?”

Winston quickly took the bowl from her and then circled his other arm around her waist, consoling her. “I heard Parker’s voice. It sounds very energetic. He’s definitely fine. You wait at home. I’ll go out and check things out.”

Hearing that, Bai Qingqing felt relieved. She pushed his chest and said, “Go quickly.”

Winston nodded, removed his animal skin skirt, then headed out in huge strides, turning into a white tiger and dashing away.

Curtis also came out of the bedroom. Bai Qingqing immediately walked toward him, pouncing into his cool embrace.

Curtis carried her and rubbed her stomach, frowning in dissatisfaction. A hint of perplexity flashed in his red eyes, and he quietly carried Bai Qingqing to the door and stood there without making a sound, looking at the small world within the courtyard.

All the leopards had run off. Then, tiger roars, wolf howls, and eagle screeches rang off. With each type of sound, all the beastmen of a certain species would gush out.

Curtis furrowed his fiery red brows. It seemed that something serious had happened.

Not long later, the massive village became empty, leaving only a couple locked in an embrace, as well as the beautiful child in their arms.

Bai Qingqing looked outside with her wide open but didn’t see anyone after very long. She was about to ask Curtis to head to the top floor to take a look when a pitch-black figure finally appeared in the courtyard.

“Muir?” Bai Qingqing tilted her head and looked at him, recognizing Muir’s identity from the wooden rods clamping on his wing. She quickly said, “Come in quickly. You’re still recuperating, why did you come out?”

Muir moved his steel-like muscular legs rapidly, his strong orange-yellow claws stepping on the moistened ground. With each step he took, a piece of the ground would turn over, looking like tilled land.

After entering the place, Muir seemed to have thought of something and turned to take a look. He saw that a few obvious prints were made on the clean stone floor by the mud on his claws, and he instantly stopped.

Bai Qingqing said, “Don’t mind it. Did you hear the news? What happened?”

Hearing that, Muir was about to transform and reply to her when a hand suddenly pressed down on the joint of his wings. Intense pain came from his wound.

“If you want to cripple this arm, then go ahead and transform!” Harvey lashed out angrily. Upon hearing the news, he was also planning on leaving. He had only held back because he was worried about this eagle beastman. Thank goodness he hadn’t gone. Otherwise, he’d be in trouble.

However, this eagle beastman ran so quickly that he couldn’t catch up even in his human form. He almost got into trouble.

Bai Qingqing understood and threw a reproachful glance at Muir. “If your body isn’t well, then don’t force it!” What if he were to end up suffering from physical disabilities?

Bai Qingqing didn’t continue. She looked at Harvey and asked, “But what happened?”

“Parker encountered a group of behemoths and realized that they are clearly headed toward us. He came back to inform us.” Harvey’s voice and expression both seemed anxious.

Behemoth tides weren’t like the trifle insect tides. To the beastmen, it could cause them casualties in light scenarios or get their entire tribe wiped out in serious cases.
