Up there, Bai Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief. She was about to ask Curtis to come up when his coiled body around a tree branch shook.
Pa!
The tree branch snapped, and Curtis collapsed into a pile on the ground.
Ssss~
Immediately after falling down, he raised his head to look at her.
Bai Qingqing blinked, seeing something that resembled a look of defeat in his snake eyes.
Were her eyes playing tricks on her?
Curtis shook his body and joined in the battleground to slay the floating beasts.
Hadnât he said that he would leave the tribe to settle the minor problems so the males in the village could toughen up? Curtis ultimately was too embarrassed to stand by and do nothing, huh?
Bai Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled.
âWhy do these floating beasts look like theyâve gone crazy?â With his brows tightly furrowed, Parker patted Bai Qingqingâs shoulder reassuringly. âDonât be scared, weâre here to protect you.â
Bai Qingqing shook her head and said with ease, âIâm not scared.â
Roar~
The leopard cubs came running over and squirmed into their mommyâs bed. Parker merely cast a glance at them and didnât tell them off.
Winston said, âIâm going down to kill the floating beasts now. You stay here and protect Qingqing and the cubs.â
âOkay,â Parker said.
They were, after all, a family. In the face of danger, the males would temporarily set aside their differences and fight the enemy together.
The torrential rain could no longer mask the intense odor of blood in the air.
Bang! Bai Qingqing watched as the tree opposite theirs collapsed to the ground with a resounding crash.
That was Beckyâs home.
Roar! The tiger beastman standing next to the tree let out an enraged roar, which ended up attracting the attention of the floating beast that knocked his home down. Suddenly, it was one versus three, instead of one versus two.
Bai Qingqing nervously gazed around for the tree hole and saw the tiny heads of a few baby tigers sticking out from a tree hole as they charged towards the tiger beastman battling those floating beasts.
Bai Qingqingâs heart clenched, and she nearly let out a scream. She shoved at Parker next to her. âQuickly go and help them. Becky has only one partner, she wonât be able to cope.â
Parker was a little hesitant. Regardless of how dangerous the situation was for others, he couldnât rescue them at the risk of endangering his own mateâs safety.
Thankfully, Winston noticed what was going on over there and went over to help. The danger was resolved in no time.
Though the floating beasts were being killed off one by one, the sounds of giant trees crashing to the ground repeatedly rang in the vicinity, making it clear that the beastmen werenât at an absolute advantage.
Roar~
The roars of tigers reverberated throughout the tree hole. From the particularly deep voice, Bai Qingqing could tell that it belonged to Winston.
âWhatâs the matter?â she asked as she walked to the passageway in the lower level.
âCan you let Becky hide in our house for the time being?â Winston raised his head and asked her from below.
âOf course,â Bai Qingqing replied without hesitation.
Only then did Winston send Becky up. However, the latter started screaming and struggling, her head turned towards the entrance of the tree hole.
âI think she doesnât wish to be apart from Ford. How about you let him in as well?â suggested Bai Qingqing.
Winston froze.
Parker instantly voiced his objection. âHow can we let a male come in?â
âWhat situation are we in now!â Bai Qingqing said anxiously. Realizing that she sounded a little harsh, she tried her best to soften her tone as she said, âLet him stay in the bottom level and not come up. Will this do? Whatâs more, donât forget that this used to be Beckyâs home in the past.â
Parker reluctantly agreed, and Winston then let Ford enter.
Becky cast a glance at Bai Qingqing, before pouncing into the embrace of her male.
âIâll let you take care of the situation under the tree,â Winston said to Ford with a cold countenance.
Ford responded gratefully.
Winston arranged for his men to guard the rivers in the first instance. After battling for half a day, the beastmen finally finished off the floating beasts who invaded the village. They could finally rest.
