He searched tirelessly for two days, covering almost the entire area around Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, but still couldn't find A-Tang.

He even felt that Ah Tang had been taken elsewhere.

But yesterday, he found bones with realgar powder in them nearby!

Ah Tang always carries realgar powder on him; that must be a signal from Ah Tang to him!

I've been searching all day, but I still haven't found any clues.

But he was certain that Atang was nearby.

He must have overlooked something.

"It's...it's over there..." Seeing Hu Shen's solemn expression, the eagle-clan beastman quickly pointed in a direction.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Hu Shen transformed into his beast form and charged off.

Only a gust of wind remained, blowing on the faces of the beasts.

"The king must be possessed."

“Yes, we’ve turned this place upside down. How could Ah Tang be around here?”

"Ugh! I wonder which beast kidnapped Atang. It's damned. Of all people to kidnap, they had to provoke the King."

"The king hasn't slept for days, and we dare not sleep either. If I find out which bastard did this, I'll tie him up and make sure he doesn't get any sleep for ten days!"

The beasts looked indignant.

...

"Splash..."

The sound of rushing water echoed in my ears once again.

Su Tang looked at the waterfall, her eyes revealing a sense of resentment.

She finally got out; if she gets caught and taken back, getting out again will be incredibly difficult.

Seemingly sensing Su Tang's intention, Xu Zhengqiao chuckled:

"Don't even think about it. Even if that birdman saw you, he couldn't take you away."

"Be a good boy/girl, I'll take you back first."

He took Su Tang's dagger in his hand and suddenly plunged it into the ground.

"This thing should lure him here. Once I kill him, I'll take you away from here."

Su Tang suddenly felt suspicious.

Xu Zhengqiao is not such an arrogant person, so why is he so confident that he can kill Hu Shen?

"Let's go, stop looking. You're destined to be mine alone."

Xu Zhengqiao smiled smugly and was about to bend down to pick up Su Tang.

Just then.

A burly and agile figure rushed out of the woods, moving so fast that neither of them could react.

"Bang!"

Su Tang only saw a yellow figure flash by.

Xu Zhengqiao, who was beside her just a second ago, was sent flying the next.

"Hu Shen!"

A look of surprise flashed in Su Tang's eyes.

She knew that this pervert wouldn't succeed.

Hu Shen stood protectively in front of Su Tang, turning back to look at her haggard appearance, his beastly eyes filled with heartache.

His sugar suffered.

It's all because of this damn guy!

When Hu Shen turned around and looked at Xu Zhengqiao, his eyes flashed with murderous intent.

He used ten times the force in his kick, sending Xu Zhengqiao flying ten zhang away. If he hadn't hit a tree, he wouldn't have been able to stop.

"puff……"

Xu Zhengqiao spat out a mouthful of blood, grinned, revealing two rows of blood-stained teeth, and laughed as he got up from the ground.

"You beast, you came pretty fast."

Seeing that Xu Zhengqiao showed no fear whatsoever, Su Tang had a strange, bad feeling.

She tugged at Hu Shen's tiger fur and whispered, "Hu Shen, this guy is cunning. Don't get entangled with him. Let's go back and call for help."

She felt uneasy, sensing that something unexpected might happen.

Hu Shen stared at Xu Zhengqiao with bloodlust, but upon hearing Su Tang's words, he quickly regained his composure.

Ah Tang must be terrified; it's more important for him to get Ah Tang to a safe place first.

Thinking of this, Hu Shen nodded and decided to leave with Su Tang.

"Heh, you think you can just leave like that?" Xu Zhengqiao sneered. "Since you're here, then leave your life behind!"

He suddenly pulled two fist-sized objects from his pocket and threw them at Hu Shen and Su Tang.

Su Tang heard a "sizzling" sound in the air.

Hu Shen didn't know what it was, but recalling what Xiao Fu had said, he guessed that it might be the thing that killed the two orcs.

He picked up Su Tang and quickly leaped diagonally backward.

But the next second, several more of the same things came from all directions, blocking his escape route.

Hu Shen's heart tightened!

He wasn't afraid of that thing, of course, but Ah Tang was here; if he hurt Ah Tang...

In just a moment, Hu Shen had already made his decision.

Su Tang felt a lightness in her body, as if an invisible hand was pushing her abdomen outwards.

"Hu Shen!"

She finally saw the "buzzing" sound; it turned out to be a series of live wires!

Could it be that Xu Zhengqiao actually did...?

"Hu Shen, no..."

Su Tang's right eyelid twitched violently. She reached out to grab Hu Shen, but then saw those things explode around Hu Shen!

"Bang! Bang!"

"Bang bang bang..."

The series of explosions seemed to explode in Su Tang's heart.

Su Tang landed heavily, rolling several meters before stopping. Small clods of dirt kept hitting her face, but because Hu Shen threw her out in time, she was not injured by the explosion.

She looked up anxiously and saw dust and smoke billowing in the distance, making it impossible to see Hu Shen's condition.

Thinking of the huge commotion that had just occurred, her heart tightened.

"Hu Shen!" Su Tang hurriedly twisted her body to stand up, but Xu Zhengqiao appeared behind her at some point and grabbed her shoulders tightly with his hands like hooks.

"I told you, he's dead. It's a pity though. I was going to cut off his head, but now I'm afraid he won't even have a complete corpse."
