Chapter 16
It's Sotayal!
But why did his face become like this?
His facial features melted and his flesh was bloody, only a pair of eyes filled with resentment were intact.
Wu Jian saw Suotai'er's face and was startled. He remembered what He Nuo had said: the star beast could devour all living things. Suotai'er's face must have been disfigured by the star beast.
But Sotayar’s look wasn’t very friendly. When had he ever offended him?
Wu Jian racked his brains to think about it. He didn't seem to have any connection with him in his memory. Why was he so full of hatred towards him?
Wu Jian pretended not to notice his resentful look and tested him jokingly.
"Ah?" Are you lost? Come on, I'll take you to find your mom and brother!
Suotai'er said with a forced smile, "Look at the dead end ahead of you. Are you lost? I'll take you to find Ira and the others. Come quickly."
Wu Jian took a step back.
Sotayal's eyes turned cold, and his face with flesh-colored wrinkles looked particularly ferocious.
"There's no time left. Let's go! If the monsters come, we won't be able to escape!"
"Oh." Uncle, can you go ahead first? I'll follow you. I'm afraid of the dark.
"It's okay, I can carry you. Come here."
"Ah..." Uncle, you're injured. I don't want to tire you out. Forget it. I can do it myself...
Suo Taiyaer interrupted Wu Jian and said coldly: "Just come over when I told you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
As he said this, he wanted to reach out to grab Wu Jian. As he did so, claws as sharp as knives appeared on the back of his hand and he grabbed the little dragon's neck fiercely.
The claws of the golden-horned lion are extremely sharp, and can easily cut through even the strongest energy stone like cutting vegetables, let alone the neck of a cub.
In just a few seconds, the little dragon's head fell to the ground!
At this moment, the dragon cub's abdomen bulged, and it spat a stream of crimson flames at Sotayar, striking him squarely in the eye. His skin, already melted by the star beast's slime, burned from the flames, oozing pus and blood, aggravating his existing injuries.
Sotayal was caught off guard and was hit by the flames from the little dragon's mouth. He was rolling on the ground in pain.
Wu Jian took the opportunity to escape.
Sotayal was completely furious. He endured the pain from his wounds and chased after him.
Wu Jian used the same escape speed that He Nuo had used him as bait, and ran around the cave like crazy.
He fled wildly, and Sotayar was chasing him closely.
"Stop, you damned little bastard!"
"Ah!" You told me to stop? I won't!
Wu Jian took the opportunity to disrupt Sotayal's emotions, and flapped his little wings frantically to find an escape route.
The enraged Sotayal transformed into the form of a golden-horned lion, but in the cave, his form was much smaller, making it easier to hunt him down.
Wu Jian was just a cub and his endurance was not as good as that of an adult lion. Soon, he was getting closer to the golden-horned lion.
At this moment, the golden-horned lion used the earth wall of the cave to easily jump up and approach the little dragon cub. Its sharp teeth bit his tail, making him howl in pain.
Although its tail was also covered in scales, the Golden Horned Lion's bite force was extremely strong, enough to crush the bones of a four-star or higher monster. Many scales on the dragon cub's tail were bitten off, and the snow-white scales fell to the ground, sparkling.
Tears welled up in his big crimson eyes. He held his tail and blew hard, trying to blow away the severe pain.
The golden-horned lion bit a mouthful of scales, spat a few times in disgust, and spat out some snow-white scales.
“It’s so disgusting!”
Wu Jian, who was in so much pain that tears were streaming down his face, couldn't help but retort when he heard the Golden Horned Lion's complaints.
"Ouch!" I'll try to bite you! I didn't provoke you, why do you have to chase me?
"It's not your fault?" He stroked his horrible face, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty hatred. "If it weren't for you, little bastard, how could we have encountered the star beast? If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not being Ira's cub."
Wu Jian collapsed.
"Ah!" No, big brother, aren't you and my mom teammates? Why did you suddenly turn against me? Is it because you can't get the love you want?
"Shut up!"
Wu Jian was shocked as if he had just eaten a big piece of melon.
"Ah!" No way? No way? Do you like my mom? Or is it because my mom stole the person you like?
Wu Jian's words seemed to have touched a secret place in the Golden Horned Lion's heart.
He roared, "I told you to shut up!"
Wu Jian suddenly realized that the White Tiger had really stolen the person the Golden Horned Lion loved. If he had known their relationship was so complicated, he should never have said that he was the White Tiger's cub.
"Oh." I said I am not his child, would you believe it?
The golden-horned lion laughed angrily and asked, "What do you think?"
Seeing that the communication failed, Wu Jian ran away without hesitation.
"Ouch!" Help! Someone killed the dragon!
——
At this time, He Nuo, who had escaped from the female star beast, returned to the cliff again and found that all the eggs in the deep pit had disappeared, leaving behind a lot of white mucus, which spread all the way to the exit of the cave.
Realizing something was amiss, He Nuo leaped down from the cliff, using the wall to easily reach the deep pit. After a thorough search, he found no sign of the cub.
He climbed out of the deep pit and chased the star beast cub along the mucus until he saw a piece of snow-white scale in the mucus. He had a bad feeling in his heart and hurriedly sped up to catch up.
After chasing for a while, he found a lot of blood and signs of fighting on the walls of the cave, including scratches from wild beasts.
He Nuo realized that the little dragon must have been following a player from the Alien Beast Civilization, and that they had encountered a star beast. Unfortunately, the traces stopped there.
The star beast seemed to stop suddenly and move away in another direction.
The little dragon is still alive!
He Nuo opened the panel and saw the red dot on the small map, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, he saw the climbing slime of the star beast on the cliff. For some reason, he was so worried about the safety of a cub that he even jumped down to check if the dragon cub was still alive, regardless of whether the female star beast would return to the deep pit again.
Seeing the clean deep pit, his mind told him not to chase any further, but his instinct still kept following the traces of the star beast cub to find the little dragon cub.
It was not until now that he remembered that he and the little dragon were bound together and that he could see a small red dot on the minimap indicating whether he was still alive.
An inexplicable light flashed in He Nuo's golden eyes.
This was the first time he lost control of his emotions because of a cub.
He Nuo suppressed the expression in his eyes and continued to move towards the red dot.
Twenty minutes ago.
The little dragon cub was being chased by a golden-horned lion. He was in a terrible state, especially with many scales on his body bleeding. After being injured, his speed slowed down visibly.
The golden-horned lion found an opportunity and used the force of the wall to press the little dragon cub under its claws.
Wu Jian was not big to begin with, and when the golden-horned lion's claws pressed him down, he was pressed directly into the ground and swallowed a mouthful of dirt.
"I told you to run, you little bastard!"
The golden-horned lion slashed with its claws, and Wu Jian's dragon horn oozes dazzling blood, obscuring his vision. He can only vaguely see Suotai'er's hideous face. While struggling hard, he continues to disrupt Suotai'er's vision.
"Ah!" Ila stole the person you like, why don't you just take him back openly? Why do you have to make things difficult for a little dragon like me?
"Yes, why? Because he is the son of the marshal, and although I have royal blood, I am just a bastard and not worthy of her."
The golden-horned lion complained to himself as he scratched the little dragon's back with his claws. The intense pain made the little dragon cry out.
A look of pleasure flashed in the eyes of the golden-horned lion.
"I'm not worthy of her, and Ila is even less worthy of her. And you're just a bastard, a shameful bastard in their bloodline just like me. I'm kind enough to help you out, so don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being a bastard."
The golden-horned lion buried the dragon cub in its claws, trying to suffocate him.
The live broadcast barrage exploded!
[Fuck! How shameless! What does the cub have to do with the adults' affairs? Ugly monster, let go of the little dragon cub!]
[Tsk tsk, I finally understand. So this guy likes Kulili, but is too embarrassed to confess.]
"What's with the low self-esteem? Just be blunt. He's just jealous of Ira. I went to a royal banquet once before and saw him approach Kuriri, but she wasn't interested and politely declined and left. Oh, just because he likes Kuriri, she has to like him. That doesn't make sense. You're dreaming of eating swan meat!"
[I've eaten a lot of melons from the Alien Beast Civilization this time. I'm almost stuffed!]
[Ahhh, no one cares about the little dragon cub? Someone come save it!]
——
Wu Jian was too small and couldn't struggle at all under Sotayar's beastly paw.
As I watched the air I breathed into my lungs become less and less, a lot of oxygen was lost, my brain kept buzzing, and my vision became more and more blurred.
At this moment, his abdomen bulged, and red flames burst out from the gaps between his scales, stinging the claws of the golden-horned lion.
The golden-horned lion kept cursing and did not forget to step on Wu Jian's body.
When the golden-horned lion's claws stepped down, Wu Jian, who was in a daze, saw a huge monster appear behind the golden-horned lion and heard the golden-horned lion's screams in his ears.
The star beast with golden fur growing on its body opened its bloodthirsty eyes, and its lightning-fast tongue pierced the heart of the golden-horned lion. Its tentacles dragged the lion up and swallowed it into its stomach.
At this moment, a fireball hit the star beast.
The star beast howled, and the golden-horned lion was spit out. It looked at the unconscious Wu Jian reluctantly, called out "Mom" softly, and left the cave.
The highly concentrated corrosive liquid almost corroded the body of the golden-horned lion, leaving it with only a breath of life.
Ila walked up to the golden-horned lion and saw that the lion had turned back into Sotayal's appearance with a complicated expression.
"Xiao Du, how's the cub?"
Dumes, who was checking the little dragon's injuries, found that the little dragon was groaning uncomfortably. He couldn't help but slow down his movements and bandaged the little dragon's wound.
"The cub's injury isn't serious. He just needs to rest for a few days and the bones won't grow crooked."
"Um."
Dumez saw Sotayal lying on the ground gasping for breath and asked Ira, "What should we do with Sotayal? He is a member of the royal family after all."
Ira said coldly, "According to the laws of the alien beast civilization, harming a cub without reason is punishable by death! As a member of the royal family, knowingly breaking the law, do you think I should save him?"
Dumez pushed up his glasses. "If you let him die here, it would be detrimental to your reputation."
"What if he hurt the cubs?"!
