Chapter 217: Chapter 202: Frenzied Beast (Part 2)

“Tsk.”

He squinted his eyes, “Even the Fox Clan’s secret technique can’t be found…”

Yuri Ashwood said in a low voice, “Your Highness, shall we head to The Wolf Tribe first?”

Kian Sterling glanced at the unconscious Caleb Manning and chuckled lightly, “Let’s go.”

……

In a secluded corner of the mountains behind The Wolf Tribe.

Luna Sutton put on the leather shoes she had made, finally feeling much more comfortable.

The night wind blew, and she suddenly felt a bit cold.

Although it was The Blazing Season now, the temperature difference between day and night was significant.

Almost a difference of ten degrees.

Thinking that she was still in her postnatal period, she took out a fox fur cloak from her system backpack to wrap around herself.

This was something she had made before and stored in the system backpack for backup.

It happened to come in handy at this moment.

Though she had taken the Postpartum Repair Pill and her body had recovered well,

She had just given birth without the postnatal rest, so keeping warm was still a good idea.

The invisibility cloak draped over the outermost layer, isolating all scents, making even wild beasts ignore her.

Luna Sutton stepped over the fallen leaves on the ground, randomly choosing a direction to leave.

She didn’t know where she was going.

She just wanted to get away from there, away from The Wolf Tribe, to a place where no one knew her.

As for after the three-month punishment ends and she regains her appearance, whether she would return here, even she did not know.

All she knew was her heart was in turmoil, needing to think carefully about the path ahead.

To think about her relationship with her five beast husbands.

If possible, she also wanted to break the contract with the system, no longer doing any strategy tasks.

While she had gained many benefits from completing tasks,

Those benefits were all superficial, never truly belonging to her.

The system could take them back at any time.

Including her appearance, one failed task would revert her to her original form.

Moreover, she always felt like a puppet of the system, forced to complete various tasks.

Before, without the punishment mechanism, Luna Sutton didn’t care much.

But now, she truly didn’t want to strategize anymore.

She had a Wood Element Ability, a cultivation technique, and memories of the future, so life wouldn’t be too bad.

However, this hideously ugly appearance would probably never change.

The ability could only detoxify her, unable to alter her facial features.

Even through cultivation, she couldn’t change her features, at most improving the skin a bit.

Ugly as it was, it was better than being a puppet of the system for life.

Perhaps, with this ugly appearance, she might still find a man who genuinely didn’t mind it and loved her.

Luna Sutton thought self-deprecatingly.

Walking unsteadily through the night, her feet blistered with numerous blood bubbles.

Now exhausted and hungry, she just wanted to find a place to rest properly.

She didn’t know where this was, what the name of the forest was, or how far it was from The Wolf Tribe.

Fortunately, with the invisibility cloak wrapped around her, the beasts couldn’t detect her, so the journey was relatively safe.

She wandered around for half a day, the moonlight fragmented by tree shadows, suddenly noticing a dark cave entrance on the rocky wall.

She wasn’t sure if there were any beasts inside.

She dared not enter directly.

So she bent down, picked up two small stones from the ground, and threw them in, wanting to test if there were any beasts in the cave.

The small stones rolled a few times, and two scarlet lights suddenly appeared in the cave.

No, they were eyes.

Luna Sutton was startled, there really was a beast.

She dared not stay there, frightened, and turned to run, stepping on the fallen branches with a crisp crack.

In the silent night, it was extraordinarily piercing.

Instantly, a dark shadow dashed out from the cave, with astonishing speed.

Her palm vines thrust out only to be shredded by the opponent’s sharp claws.

The pungent wind approached in an instant, and the invisibility cloak slipped off.

She couldn’t bother to wrap the cloak, instinctively swinging out vines to entangle a tree trunk, her body swinging into the air, narrowly avoiding a fatal strike.

“Snap—”

The dark shadow’s claws snapped a centuries-old tree in half.

Luna Sutton sat on the ground, finally seeing the shadow clearly.

More accurately, it was a strange man.

In the moonlight, the man stood tall with an unmatched handsome face, his veins bulging, jaws tearing his lower lip to shreds.

Two dragon horns sprouted between the dark hair at his head, gleaming with a cold light.

Scales spread from his neck to his bare chest, muscle contours rising and falling with his heavy breaths.

Most terrifying were those scarlet eyes, churning with a frenzied blood color.

Could this be the legendary Frenzied Beast?

In the Beast World Continent, besides Beastmen, half-Beastmen, unable-to-transform beasts, and lower animals,

There was another category, the Frenzied Beasts.

Frenzied Beasts lost their sanity, bloodthirsty, destructive, and generally very powerful.

They were originally normal beasts, who due to some mental stimulation, mysterious curses, or toxin contamination, descended into Frenzied Beasts.

In her memory, Frenzied Beasts were terrifying.

They had no reason, attacking and destroying things, and their power was pretty immense.

Generally encountering Frenzied Beasts, the major tribes would keep their distance or join forces to kill them.

Luna Sutton never thought she would encounter a Frenzied Beast here.

She looked at the two dragon horns on the man’s head.

Then she froze for a moment.

This was The Dragon Clan?

The Dragon Clan only appeared in The Upper Domain of the Beast World Continent, how were they here in The Lower Domain?

Moreover, how did he become a Frenzied Beast?

She remembered the system told her that one of Chloe Callahan’s task objectives was Mael Valerius, a member of The Dragon Clan from the Upper Domain who had fallen into the Lower Domain.

He seemed to be one of the male leads in the original plot.

Could this Frenzied Beast in front of her be Mael Valerius?

But the wretched system never said Mael Valerius was a Frenzied Beast.

Before she could continue thinking,

The man’s claw attacked again.

Luna Sutton rolled to avoid it, the rock behind her instantly shattered.

The man growled from his throat, his scale-covered hand suddenly gripping her throat, pinning her against a tree.

“Uh…”

She frantically tugged at his unmoving wrist, the vines sprouting from her fingers shredded by his violent energy.

“Mael Valerius!”

She tried to awaken his reason.

The man’s actions paused, scarlet eyes flashing with a hint of struggle.

“Lu…na?”

Mael Valerius’s hoarse voice mixed with the scent of blood.

Luna Sutton was suddenly confused; this Frenzied Beast knew her?

Or was he calling someone else, whose name just sounded like hers?

Before she could react, the man suddenly hurled her against the tree, his dragon tail coiling around her waist, tightening gradually, “Lying to me… all of you lied to me…”

The dragon tail squeezed her ribs painfully, yet it froze when it smelled the milky scent on her body.

Seizing the opportunity, Luna Sutton infused her Wood Element Ability into his forehead, “Calm down.”

The glowing green light entered instantly, patterns of faint gold appeared on the dragon horns, the madness in his eyes ebbing away.

Gradually regaining his senses, he released her.

Luna Sutton exhaled in relief, having just walked on the brink of death.

Instinctively stepping back two paces, distancing herself from this terrifying man.

…

At the same time,

In the depths of a certain dense forest, Corbin Crowley, madly searching for someone, suddenly stopped.

He stared intently at his chest, where the Mate Mark flickered, his silver eyes brightened remarkably, “Luna, you finally appeared.”

Instantly transforming into a Silver-moon Grey Wolf, his figure dashed out like lightning.

At the same moment,

Rhys Blackwood was searching by the cold pool, his black snake tail suddenly stiffening.

As if sensing something, he looked in a certain direction.

His icy slit eyes abruptly contracted.

The hundred-meter-long serpent body crushed the dry branches and leaves, speeding towards the direction sensed.

Over here, on the back of the Flying Beast, Kian Sterling’s fingertips suddenly tightened, “Turn around.”

He stared at his chest where the Mate Mark flickered, chuckled lightly, nine fox tails spread in the wind, “Thirty miles southeast, accelerate.”

Yuri Ashwood and Finn Arcanus knew immediately that His Highness had found Miss Sutton’s trail.

They dared not delay.

They immediately commanded the Flying Beast to turn around, accelerating southeast.
