Chapter 762 - 762 Kill Me
762 Kill Me
Huanhuan said slowly, “I know it’s too difficult for you to endure it, but if you can’t resist your gluttony, I won’t be able to keep you by my side. At that time, I’ll have to ask your father to bring you to live with the demons.”
Clement immediately hissed. He refused to be separated from his mother!
Huanhuan stood on tiptoes and leaned forward to kiss his forehead. “Can you restrain your desires for my sake?”
Clement did not respond.
!!
Huanhuan looked at him with tears in her eyes. “If you want to live with us, you have to learn to live like us. Endurance is the first thing you have to learn. I know this process will be difficult, but I’ll always be by your side. Promise me, okay?”
Clement flicked out his snake tongue and wiped away the tears in her eyes.
The wet, salty taste made him vaguely learn the meaning of tears again.
He relaxed his body bit by bit and slithered in front of her, resting his head on his snake tail. It was a sign of obedience.
It was also a sign of agreement.
Huanhuan hugged him. “What a good child.”
Bai Di washed the prey and made roasted meat. He cut off the most tender part of the meat and distributed it to Huanhuan. The rest of the meat was distributed to the others.
The beast soldiers made a few other fires. They roasted meat too, but it didn’t taste as good as Bai Di’s roasted meat.
Huanhuan handed a portion of the roasted meat to Clement. “Eat.”
Clement flicked out his snake tongue and rolled the roasted meat into his mouth. He ate it in one bite.
This bit of meat was not even enough for him.
Huanhuan took out a lot of meat from her s.p.a.ce and fed it to Clement.
After eating and drinking his fill, he wrapped himself around the tree and lowered his head. He leaned close to Huanhuan’s back and closed his eyes to sleep.
As the beast soldiers ate, they looked at the heaven-devouring python from time to time, afraid that he would pounce on them and eat them all.
The meal was a terrifying one.
Double Mirror stared at the heaven-devouring python behind Huanhuan and swallowed the roasted meat in his mouth. He asked slowly, “Is your son a demon?”
Huanhuan paused in her eating.
She looked at him expressionlessly. “Yes.”
“You’re a beast. Logically speaking, you wouldn’t give birth to a demon unless your mate is a demon?”
“That’s right.”
Shuang Jing couldn’t help but ask, “As a beast, you actually mated with a demon. Aren’t you afraid of being discovered and executed as a traitor?”
When Clement revealed his true ident.i.ty, Huanhuan had already guessed that she might have to face such a question. She said calmly, “I just mated with a demon. I didn’t help the demons kill beasts. I don’t think I did anything wrong.”
“But the demons have killed so many beasts. Shouldn’t you hate them?!”
Huanhuan thought to herself that if she were an ordinary beast, she might hate the demons, but the problem was that she wasn’t.
She was a pure human who had transmigrated. She did not have the hatred ordinary beasts had for the demons.
Huanhuan asked, “Didn’t the beasts kill many demons too?”
Shuang Jing shook his head. “This is different. We’re righteous, and they’re evil.”
“Justice and evil have always been relative. Perhaps in the eyes of the demons, you’re the evil ones.”
“I can’t outtalk you, but I have to remind you that if anyone else finds out that you’ve mated with a demon and given birth to one, you’ll be doomed.”
Huanhuan was very cold and calm. “No one will know.”
“That’s not necessarily true. Now I know. Maybe I’ll leak your secret tomorrow. Won’t the world know soon?” Shuang Jing said half-jokingly.
“That’s why I have a solution now. It can prevent future trouble.”
“What solution?”
Huanhuan looked into his eyes. “I’ll kill you.”
Shuang Jing was stunned for a moment, then he smiled. “Do you think killing me will prevent future trouble? There are so many people here. Are you going to kill them all?”
“They’re not like you. They’re my people. They won’t betray me. I can’t say the same for you.”
Indeed.
Bai Di was her mate. Shuang Yin, Shuang Mu, Shuang Lin, Shuang Hua, Bai An, and Bai Hao were all her children. As for the beast soldiers, they were all elite beast soldiers of the Rock Wolf Tribe. They only listened to Princess Shuang Yin’s orders, while Shuang Yin only listened to her mother…
In that case, only Shuang Jing was an outsider here.
The smile on Shuang Jing’s face gradually froze. “Y-You’re not serious, are you?”
Huanhuan said, “What do you think?”
“No, I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously!” Shuang Jing was getting more and more nervous. He was sweating.
Although he was very strong, there were many of them. Moreover, there was a heaven-devouring python eyeing him covetously. It was impossible for him to escape!
Bai Di patted his shoulder. “We were just joking.”
“R-Really?”
Huanhuan nodded. “Yes.”
Shuang Jing heaved a sigh of relief and wiped his cold sweat. “That’s good…”
“But if you dare to reveal Clement’s true ident.i.ty, the joke just now will become real.”
Shuang Jing immediately raised his hand and swore. “I promise I won’t say a word!”
…
At the same time, the news of Wen Qian’s death had already spread to the City of 10,000 Beasts. The ten elders in the Elders’ a.s.sociation were all shocked.
They did not expect a high priest to be killed so easily!
What they didn’t expect was that Bai Di was the one who killed him!
“How dare he?!” Second Elder slammed the table and stood up, his face filled with anger. “Even if he’s from the royal family, killing the high priest is a capital crime!”
The other elders echoed, “That’s right, that’s right! This matter can’t be tolerated!”
At first, First Elder didn’t speak until everyone was clamoring to send people to capture Bai Di. “Don’t go,” he said.
Second Elder was puzzled. “Why?”
“Before I came here, I just got word that Bai Di is already one of the 12 divine guards.”
Everyone was surprised. “When did he become a divine guard?”
“Lin Huanhuan gave him the position of divine guard.” At this point, First Elder’s gaze became gloomy. “Lin Huanhuan has been recognized by the prophet and was chosen as the successor of the prophet. Now, the entire temple is under her temporary management.”
“H-How is this possible?!”
No one could believe it.
Putting aside why the prophet suddenly chose an heir, even if he wanted to choose an heir in case of emergencies, he shouldn’t have chosen a female!
Ever since the beast continent was discovered, there had been no precedent of a female becoming a prophet!
None of them could understand the prophet’s decision.
First Elder ignored everyone’s doubts and confusion and said coldly, “This matter has already been spread to the 10,000 Beast Temple by the commander of the divine guards, Leng Xiao. It won’t be long before it spreads throughout the world. At that time, you have no choice but to believe me.”
“But this is too… ridiculous! She’s a female, after all! What can a female do?!”
“I can’t accept a female as a prophet!”
“When the prophet returns, we have to protest!”
…
Amidst the commotion, First Elder closed his eyes to hide the jealousy in them.
He gritted her teeth and repeated the female’s name.
Lin Huanhuan.
