Seeing Rosa in such a manner, Bai Qingqing suddenly didnât hate her that much anymore. Rosa was just an arrow without much accuracy.
Bai Qingqing looked at the ape king and suddenly felt that he was like a clown, ugly and comical. âYou should be disappointed.â
The ape king was still wearing a furious expression, but his attention had been drawn away by Bai Qingqing. This female had always given him a bad feeling as if she was able to see through everything.
As expected, those from the same tribe were the hardest to deal with. He wondered which village she came from.
âThe one who feels the most disappointed that Rosa wasnât able to kill me isnât her, but you.â Bai Qingqing continued, throwing a glance toward Rosaâs mouth. She shuddered. âYouâre really brutal.â
The ape kingâs countenance immediately turned pale, and his eyes moved around quickly like machinery that had been worn down too much. âYouâre mistaken. I do feel very guilty that youâve been assaulted. My castle has failed to give you due protection. The upas tree is what I had prepared to use to fend off against beast tides and to attack other tribes. Rosa must have found out about the upas treeâs poison from Bart and gotten someone to steal the sap. I plucked off her tongue so that she wonât continue to incite other males to commit wrongdoings.â
The more the ape king said, the more sense he seemed to make. He even appeared a little angry. âYour guess is too far-fetched. Why would I want to kill you?â
âIf I were to die, thereâd be two less four-striped beastmen in the City of Beastmenâthe tiger king and Curtis. Youâll be one step closer toward your ambition of taking over the City of Beastmen.â Bai Qingqingâs brows raised slightly. âAm I right? Ape king?â
The ape king was badly shaken and couldnât help but back off one step.
Bai Qingqing said, âIf Iâm not mistaken, your next target should be the leopard king. Winston is wary against you and isnât that easy to deal with. Youâre anxious to isolate him.â
The pretense on the ape kingâs face was gradually taken off, and the muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched uncontrollably as his expression became savage.
Curtis looked toward the ape king, his gaze as if he was looking at a dead creature. He started to gather strength in his tail.
The wolf king immediately tossed Rosa to his subordinates and stood in front of the ape king, bellowing loudly, âProtect the ape king!â
All the wolf beastmen gathered around the ape king.
Bai Qingqing turned and looked toward Curtis, shaking her head. However, it was clear from Curtisâs gaze that he was unwilling.
Bai Qingqing could only say, âShuu refused to reveal the ape kingâs name even till his death. This was despite the ape kingâs participation in this matter. After thinking about it, I finally understood.â
âHahahaâ¦â The ape king laughed out maniacally, saying conceitedly, âYouâre smart. If you want to kill me, then you must be prepared to go up against the entire City of Beastmen!â
Curtis smiled as he stared at the ape king with an ice-cold gaze. âSo what?â
The smile on the ape kingâs face froze up a little.
Bai Qingqing shook her head and looked toward the ape king, saying, âThe City of Beastmen needs a spiritual leader. Itâll be the time of your death when thereâs a replacement.â
âWith the likes of you, a single female? Hahahaâ¦â The ape king seemed as if he had heard a great joke. âWhat can a female who doesnât even have any mental power do? Females should just stay at home and give birth to children. The reason you guys can live a peaceful life is all thanks to my arrangements.â
Bai Qingqing smiled, a dangerous feeling creeping up on her pale face. âLet me see what youâve done for the City of Beastmen. You better pray that the City of Beastmenâs citizens will respect and support you forever.â
After saying that, Bai Qingqing turned to head out. âLetâs go home.â
Curtis stood there on the spot, not moving. Bai Qingqing tugged at his hand, saying tiredly, âLetâs go.â
Curtis pursed his lips and was about to turn when he saw the black eagle in the sky. He suddenly pushed his body up, pouncing toward the black eagle.
âScreech!â Muir quickly flapped his wings and flew higher, narrowly escaping the snakeâs bite, but leaving behind several black feathers in the sky.
The light feathers fluttered around under the hot steaming air, not landing for very longâ¦
