Mo Zhou sighed, "This won't work, that won't work, it's really troublesome."
If he had known this would happen, he would have secretly killed Chang Yue on the first day he entered the city. Then all these troubles would have been avoided, and he wouldn't be so restricted now.
"How about this, you go to the royal palace and get me some healing herbs, I'll eat some first."
"Alright, what kind of herbs do you want?"
Fei Han rattled off several kinds of medicinal herbs, including their names, appearances, medicinal effects, and where to place them.
Mo Zhou noted everything down and was about to leave when Fei Han called him back: "Bai Jing should be here soon, along with Chi Yang and Su Hui."
"Who are these two people?"
“They are Wangye’s right-hand men, and Changyue is determined to get rid of them. I can’t move right now, so I need you to guard the area near the city gate and let them sneak into the city without Changyue finding out. Then go to the cliff and find Wanwan and Wangye.”
Only by bringing back the Beast King can Chang Yue's lies be exposed.
“Okay.” Mo Zhou noted these words down, transformed into a small snake, quickly arrived at the royal palace, found the medicinal herbs Fei Han had mentioned, and handed them to him.
Then, without stopping, they went to the city gate to look for Bai Jing.
After a long journey, everyone was exhausted, but fortunately they were getting close to the Beast City. They only needed another half day to enter the city.
Su Hui squatted by the stream, cupping the water in his hands and gulping it down. After finishing the water, he washed his face, water droplets sliding down his cheeks. Su Hui sighed with satisfaction, "I'm exhausted. When I get back to the city, I'll definitely take a good bath, eat my fill, and get a good night's sleep."
Chi Yang smiled and mercilessly rebuked him: "You wish! When we get back to the city, you'll come with me to the palace to report to the Beast King."
"Ah!" Su Hui cried out, pitifully grabbing Chi Yang's arm: "No way! Captain, you can handle this kind of reporting by yourself. Why are you dragging me along?"
Chi Yang laughed heartily at his words: "I just can't stand your lazy attitude. Young people should exercise more!"
Su Hui: "Waaaaah~ My bed, I miss my bed~"
Bai Jing, sitting on a large rock to the side, couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing this.
Chi Yang didn't dislike Su Hui at all; he was clearly giving Su Hui a chance to prove himself and hoping to make things easier for him in the future.
Suddenly, a stone came hurtling toward Bai Jing’s head. Bai Jing’s eyes flashed with wariness as he dodged the stone, which fell with a thud at his feet.
He looked around and soon noticed something unusual on a large tree not far away.
Mo Zhou flicked his forked tongue, and seeing that he had been noticed, he swam down from the tree and headed towards a more secluded spot in the forest.
Bai Jing sat there for a while, then stood up without making a sound and walked into the forest.
Seeing him head in an unknown direction, Shunfeng asked curiously, "Clan leader, where are you going?"
Bai Jing didn't even turn his head: "I'm going to relieve myself. You guys stay here and keep watch."
The forest was lush and green. Bai Jing pushed aside the bushes blocking his way and stopped in a clearing.
Mo Zhou appeared behind him. He stood up and flicked his tongue: "Fei Han told me to tell you to sneak into the city and not make a sound."
Bai Jing turned around and asked the question that had been bothering him: "What happened to you in Beast City? Why did Wanwan encounter danger?"
"It's a long story." Mo Zhou told Bai Jing everything that had happened during this period, as well as the plans for the future, all in one go.
After hearing Mo Zhou's words, Bai Jing frowned repeatedly: "How is Wanwan doing now? And how is Fei Han?"
"Feihan won't die for now. He wants you to sneak into the Beast King's Palace and go to the cliff edge to find Wanwan."
"I know everything."
Mo Zhou flicked his snake tail and sighed helplessly, "Racial conflicts are such a hassle. They prevent me from showing my face and force me to do nothing but deliver messages."
This is such a waste of talent!
Bai Jing smiled slightly after hearing his complaints.
Mo Zhou is a cold-blooded beastman. If he is exposed in the Beast King's Palace, those people will definitely unite against him and turn against him together.
At night, the Beast King's Palace was brightly lit. Chang Yue had already informed the nobles that Fei Han had murdered the Beast King and that he would punish the sinner by burning him at the stake during the new Beast King's enthronement ceremony.
Fei Han was quite famous among the nobles, not only because of his beauty, but also because of his medical talent. They never expected that Fei Han, who had always had a harmonious relationship with the Beast King, would become a traitor.
A large crowd had gathered in the palace. Chang Yue stood on a high platform as a magnificently dressed middle-aged beastman slowly walked in, drawing the attention of the crowd.
......
With Yu Wanwan on his back, Wang Ye finally climbed back to the top of the cliff. He put Yu Wanwan down and quietly covered his waist with his hand.
A rustling sound came from the bushes, and a dark shadow appeared in front of him. Wang Ye's eyes sharpened, and Yu Wanwan, who was standing to the side, rushed forward.
"Wanwan..."
"Bai Jing! What are you doing here? I missed you so much!"
Wangye paused for a moment, then the words caught in his throat.
The familiar scent made Yu Wanwan feel at ease. She hugged Bai Jing's waist, and Bai Jing bent down to pick her up and held her tightly in his arms.
"Wanwan, are you alright? Are you hurt?" Bai Jing affectionately rubbed Yu Wanwan's cheek.
Bai Jing's gentleness quickly shattered Yu Wanwan's composure over the past few days. She sniffed and said pitifully, "I'm hurt. I hit a rock on my back. It hurts so much."
