"Is she an idiot? Or has she lost her mind? Do you think it's that easy to catch a monster?"
Along the way, Liao Yu had witnessed firsthand the power of those strange beasts. Without a sufficient number of people and weapons, hunting them in a small group was simply suicidal.
Liao Yu, with his sharp eyes, noticed that Shen Lu, surrounded by people, was grinning foolishly while holding a small white tiger.
"She stole that white tiger's cub!"
At this moment, Liao Yu wanted to turn around and run away.
Normally, those who provoke strange beasts either die or are left half-dead. Protecting one's offspring is the instinct of all living beings. Shen Lu, being audacious, set her sights on the white tiger cub. This wasn't just courting death; she was recklessly trying to challenge the white tiger's mother to a duel.
Liao Yu shook his head slightly, then pulled Ji Xiaoxiao and walked into City A.
Out of consideration for the relationship between the two families, helping is no problem, but risking one's life to save someone is not an option.
"Young Master Liao, please wait! Miss is your fiancée. You can't just stand by and watch her die."
Whether someone saves her or not is up to them. Liao Yu isn't stupid. He saved Shen Lu without kicking her when she was down. That shows his good character and high moral standards.
Liao Yu ignored him, grabbed Ji Xiaoxiao, and turned to leave.
The man in black panicked and shouted at the top of his lungs to Shen Lu in the crowd, "Miss, Young Master Liao has come to save you!" His shout attracted Shen Lu and the others' attention, and also caused Bai Hu to glare at Liao Yu and his group.
Liao Yu felt as if needles were pricking her back, and large beads of sweat rolled down her cheeks.
"This is not good," Liao Yu said seriously.
Ji Xiaoxiao's expression was tense as she held Liao Kongmin, radiating a chilling aura.
"Young Master Liao, you..."
Before the man in black could finish speaking, Ji Xiaoxiao grabbed his neck and gave him a light shake. He crashed into several trees before finally coming to a stop.
"Trying to frame me? Don't you even know if I can do what you want?"
Ji Xiaoxiao tilted her head back, revealing her smooth chin.
Shen Lu was startled by Ji Xiaoxiao's actions and only momentarily lost her senses.
"That woman dared to touch my people, is she looking for death? She actually dared to be near my brother Yu, is she trying to seduce him? No way, just by looking at her, I can tell she's a shameless vixen. I will definitely protect my brother Yu."
Shen Lu grew increasingly furious and shouted, "You wretch!"
Shen Lu called out to Ji Xiaoxiao and the others. Ji Xiaoxiao, who didn't have the habit of taking things personally, said to Liao Yu indifferently, "It seems your fiancée really hates you!"
Ji Xiaoxiao patted Liao Yu on the shoulder. Liao Yu was tall, handsome, and dashing, but he was quite pitiful. Getting involved with such a troublemaker, his life must be miserable.
Liao Yu was taken aback for a moment, then said, "He wasn't talking about me, he was talking about you."
Liao Yu pointed to the black-clad man lying motionless to the side, seemingly dead, and said, "You harmed her people, and she's cursing you. Shen Lu doesn't have many redeeming qualities; she's just fiercely protective of her own people."
"Tch," Ji Xiaoxiao said dismissively.
Ji Xiaoxiao glanced at Shen Lu once or twice and knew she was a pampered young lady who was all show and no substance. What could a pampered young lady possibly do to her? Order her around, or beat her up?
Shen Lu glared fiercely at Ji Xiaoxiao, then suddenly swayed and cried out in surprise.
“You bunch of good-for-nothings, you can’t even handle an animal. Are you even worse than beasts? My Shen family paid a high price to hire you, not just to put on a show.”
While being protected by others, Shen Lu knew very little about the White Tiger's destructive power. She thought that since so many of them couldn't subdue this beast, it must be because her bodyguards were lazy, all bark and no bite, and lacked any real skills.
The bodyguard, expressionless, endured Shen Lu's insults and slander. He was obligated to pay her, and couldn't retaliate. He was also obligated to pay her, and couldn't fight back.
"Hurry up and deal with this beast. I'm in a hurry to get home for afternoon tea." Shen Lu pulled hard on the cheek of the little white tiger in her arms and scolded, "It's all your fault, you beast. When we get home, I'll get tired of playing with you and have someone stew you for soup."
The white tiger has very sensitive ears. Upon hearing the little white tiger's faint cry of pain, it instantly went berserk.
The white tiger unleashed its power, its attacks becoming increasingly fierce and brutal, leaving the bodyguards increasingly overwhelmed. Within minutes, one still-warm corpse after another lay at the white tiger's feet.
With so many people dying, Shen Lu panicked.
"You bunch of good-for-nothings, hurry up and stop that beast!"
Shen Lu grabbed the bodyguard in front of her and shoved him towards the white tiger's mouth. Without hesitation, the white tiger bit the man, shook its head, and the headless corpse flew to the side.
Blood splattered on Shen Lu's face. Shen Lu wiped it away with disgust and said viciously, "You people should be careful when you die. My clothes are very precious. Selling all of you wouldn't even be worth the scraps of my clothes."
Ji Xiaoxiao and Liao Yu stood aside and watched, exchanging no words.
This person who sabotages us is truly a genius!
Shen Lu's actions completely chilled the hearts of some of the bodyguards. They were selling their martial arts skills to earn a living for the Shen family, not selling their human dignity and lives. Shen Lu was merely an employer, not a princess from the old era, and they were not her lackeys.
Someone left the protective circle around Shen Lu, creating an opening that provoked a massive attack from the white tiger. With a swipe of its paw, the white tiger terrified Shen Lu, causing her to fall to the ground. The cub, looking around in a daze, immediately ran to its mother, howling.
The white tiger originally wanted to kill Shen Lu, that vile woman, but a large number of people were approaching from the front. It raised its head and roared, shaking the heavens. Reluctantly, it carried the little white tiger away from the place.
Shen Lu heard the car and turned around, her eyes filled with tears, "Brother."
Some are happy while others are sad. Shen Lu is beaming with joy, while Liao Yu is frowning and looking so miserable that he could easily trap several flies.
"What's wrong?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked gloatingly.
