Beauty and the Beasts

Chapter 1086: Victory (2)

Winston turned his hand to grab the soft small hand on the back of his hand. Sensing how cold it was, he quickly grabbed it with both hands, asking in a soft voice, “How is he?”

The “he” was naturally referring to Muir. Bai Qingqing smiled lightly and said, “Harvey said that he won’t die. Some of his feathers are a little burned, but they’ll grow back in a year.”

Winston heaved a sigh of relief, embracing Bai Qingqing’s icy body and then warming her up with his body temperature. “That’s good.”

Parker was done panting and came running over as well. He stood on the other side of Bai Qingqing and then took her other small hand.

Mitchell dug out his father’s corpse and found an intact fist. The fist was clenched tightly, and when he pried it open, he realized that it was a string of soul crystal necklace.

Even though Saint Zachary said that he was going to get rid of the bad soul fragments, he still couldn’t bear to toss any of the crystals away. All of them were still strung together, with the one he wanted the most having a mark on it.

It was just that the mark had been washed away by the water as well, and it was impossible to discern between them.

Mitchell smiled sadly. His father had died the day his mother did. He had just been a walking corpse all this while. It was good that he had passed away.

Mitchell stood up as he thought this, accurately tossing the soul crystals into the earth fissure.

White light flashed by, and with a thud, the necklace sank into the sea of flames.

This was the resting place for female souls, so he should let his mother’s soul rest in peace there.

Mitchell gathered the remnants of the corpse together, picked them up, and was about to leave when Bai Qingqing suddenly said loudly, “Stop right there!”

Mitchell paused in his footsteps and his eyes turned toward the back. However, he didn’t turn his head. The six eyes on the side of his waist could see everything behind him clearly.

Bai Qingqing took a step forward and asked, “Where’s Shuu’s soul crystal? What did you do to him?”

Mitchell’s lips curled up, and there was no more gloominess on his face. Even though he only showed his back to her, his voice still emitted a hint of nefariousness.

“If you want to know, then be my mate.”

Bai Qingqing furrowed her beautiful brows tightly, while both Parker and Winston’s faces had turned black. Their muscles were tensed up, and they looked like they were ready to go up and beat him up.

Bai Qingqing was holding their hands and could naturally sense their changes. She quickly held them back.

After listening to Mitchell’s disharmonious tone, Bai Qingqing, who had been a little uncertain of the location, came to an accurate answer—the reason she could escape the other day was partly thanks to Mitchell.

Since that was the case, then he wouldn’t kill Shuu to vent his fury.

Bai Qingqing let out the murky breath stuck in her chest and then shrugged nonchalantly, saying, “If you don’t want to say it, don’t. I’ve already gotten the answer I want.”

Mitchell’s lips curled up even wider. He carried the corpse remnants that kept on dripping blue viscous liquid and left in huge strides.

“Let’s go, too. Qingqing, your body is so cold. Don’t fall sick again,” Parker said as he squatted down in front of her.

Bai Qingqing’s body was very weak. She had just bent over when she fell weakly onto Parker’s back. She fell so hard that her chest hurt and her small face scrunched up into a small white bun.

Winston’s heart ached for her, but after seeing Bai Qingqing’s expression, he couldn’t help but place his hand onto his lips to fake a cough and conceal his smile. He walked to the other side and picked up Curtis, who was completely defrosted.

This battle was considered to have ended. The triumphant beastmen let out victorious howls. When their voices reached the ears of the other beastmen, they also started howling.

The forest was filled with endless roars that reached every corner. All the animals in the forest were so scared that they didn’t dare to come out.

Within a day, all the citizens of the City of Beastmen returned, and it rapidly recovered its previous liveliness.
