Beauty and the Beasts

As for the problem of his mate’s survivability that he had considered previously, Curtis ignored them completely. At most, he could just rot together with Snow.

After thinking of the way to handle things, Curtis’s attitude toward Bai Qingqing softened a little. He was still filled with murderous intent, but his voice sounded so gentle that it brought a chill right down to one’s bones.

“You’re mine alone. You aren’t allowed to take another look at them anymore.”

Bai Qingqing sorted out her thoughts. The current Curtis was crazy. She mustn’t try to reason with a lunatic. It was better to go along with him.

Therefore, she nodded spinelessly, replying, “En.”

An indescribable feeling of satisfaction rose in Curtis’s heart. He used his tail to bring Bai Qingqing to his arms and planted a long and entangling kiss on her lips.

Bai Qingqing complied and kissed him.

If she didn’t drag things out now, when should she?

It was better to go all the way and drag things out until the scorpion poison wore off.

However, at the thought of how An’an had gone through great agony due to the scorpion poison, Bai Qingqing quickly tossed this thought aside.

Even if she wished to do it, Curtis was unwilling to. He still wanted to deal with those two love rivals first, especially the leopard beastman. How dare he be situated right on Snow’s heart! That was unforgivable!

Curtis let go of Bai Qingqing, his long and slender tongue flicked out, taking away the moisture on her lips. He then said in a sickeningly gentle tone, “I’ll go deal with them first. I’ll come back to get you later.”

After saying that, Curtis sent Bai Qingqing to An’an’s side. Bai Qingqing even forgot about pleading with him and quickly used her body to shield An’an.

Curtis didn’t pay any attention to An’an and turned his head to look around. He then slithered toward the leopard beastman standing far away from him.

Parker’s attention was focused on Curtis. When he saw this, he instantly ran off.

He was only one level away from the snake beastman now, and when he ran at full speed, his speed was comparable to the snake beastman’s now. However, leopard beastmen’s endurance wasn’t great.

About half an hour later, Parker felt that he could no longer run.

He turned and saw that Curtis was still hot on his heels without any signs of fatigue. This was bad.

There were faint signs of quicksand flickering in front of him, and Parker was hesitating over whether he should jump in as he had no idea where it’d lead him to. However, Curtis would give chase and he’d still die.

He was hesitating when a low and resounding cry rang out in the sky above him. “Coo coo—”

Parker looked up and saw a big, green, glistening bird flying above him. He was elated.

“Howl howl howl howl howl—”

Alva had followed Winston here. At first, he didn’t know what Winston was doing and only rushed over here after a lot of delays. Winston didn’t stop at all and had arrived at Flame City before him.

Alva was scared of Curtis and wavered.

Parker was so anxious that he wanted to jump. His howls became increasingly irritated. “Howl howl howl howl howl!!!!”

Forget it, no matter what contradictions they had, it wouldn’t go wrong to save a life first.

Alva decided to save the leopard.

In his hesitation, he had moved away from the leopard and snake beastmen. So, he turned and chased after them. The desert now was flat, and he wasn’t able to catch up to them when he moved in the same straight line.

Parker ran while looking back. The blood on his body was flowing at an unprecedented ferocity, and his temperature was so high that he was feeling giddy.

If it wasn’t because he had leveled up to become a four-striped beastman, he’d have long died from overheating.

Seeing that the peacock was unable to catch up after so long, Parker swung his head fiercely and ran over at an angle 40 degrees from the front.

There was a large area of sand dunes there. If the peacock still couldn’t catch up, then there was nothing he could say.

Parker quickly arrived onto this stretch of sand dunes and tried very hard to climb up. He could feel snake beastman right behind him.
