Chapter 60: Chapter 60: The Dungeon

She pondered for a moment, then said, “My ability does indeed have self-healing capacity, but since I’ve only recently awakened it, the level isn’t high. It can only treat some simple injuries, and the number of times it can be used is limited.”

Everyone listened to her words and expressed understanding.

Luna Sutton’s ability indeed awakened not long ago, with a low level, so its limited healing effect is quite normal.

Moreover, the witch doctor’s ability, awakened decades ago, can only treat relatively serious injuries and problems. It can’t bring people back to life.

Though Luna Sutton’s newly awakened ability can only heal simple injuries, it is already quite rare.

Some of the females secretly pursed their lips, believing she was bragging, although they wouldn’t say it out loud.

After chatting for a while, the group headed together to the Moonlight Forest near the tribe.

The Moonlight Forest is close to the tribe, and for the safety of the tribe’s Beastmen, large beasts have long been cleared from it, leaving only some relatively harmless wild animals.

The tribe’s females occasionally gather in the Moonlight Forest and come and go often without much danger.

The group chatted and laughed along the way, with everyone focusing on Luna Sutton, crowding around her, saying cheerful and pleasing words.

Maya Miller stood at the cave entrance, watching from afar as the tribe’s females surrounded Luna Sutton, chatting and laughing, with a cold, jealous expression.

These days, she and Maya have been handling Aidan Veridian’s affairs.

It was just finding a good environment to dig a hole, burying him to keep the body from being dug up and eaten by wild animals.

Inside, they placed some weapons and ornaments her father used in life as burial items, filled in the soil, marked the spot with a stone, and that was the end.

Now, watching Luna Sutton being adored by the tribe’s females, jealousy drove Maya Miller mad.

She was supposed to be the most beautiful female in the tribe, the one everyone should be fawning over.

Luna Sutton, this despicable female, was merely the leader’s daughter, clearly so ugly but possessing five top-notch Beast Husbands, awakening an ability, and looking much better now, knowing so much. It was infuriatingly enviable.

No, she absolutely can’t let this despicable female continue to be so smug.

With this in mind, Maya Miller’s expression grew colder and more resentful, snorting coldly before turning back into the cave.

She needed to think carefully about how to make this despicable female lose everything.

Ideally, make her ugly again so Corbin Crowley and Rhys Blackwood and the others would despise her and turn their affections to herself.

As she thought, Maya couldn’t help but fantasize.

Imagining Corbin Crowley, Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, Zeke Veridian, and Malachi Arcanus all kneeling before her, looking at her with deep affection, confessing their love, longing to mate with her.

She would then enjoy it all with arrogance, choosing whom to favor at night.

“Hahaha…”

Reaching this point, Maya laughed happily, a laugh of pure pleasure.

Just then, Wolf Fang approached, puzzled by her happiness.

Aidan Veridian had just died, and it was a brutal public killing by Mason Sutton in front of the entire tribe.

As his daughter, shouldn’t Maya be grieving? Why was she so cheerful?

“Maya, what’s making you so happy?”

Wolf Fang stopped in front of her, watching her with suspicion.

Maya’s laughter abruptly ceased, and her smile vanished. Her expression turned cold as she looked away, answering frostily, “Why are you here?”

Thinking about Aidan being brutally killed by Mason Sutton in front of everyone, when she had asked Wolf Fang for help and he had pretended not to see, anger flared in her heart.

No matter how many days passed, she couldn’t swallow this anger.

Wolf Fang, seeing her attitude, knew very well the reason and felt helpless.

But it wasn’t something that could be blamed on him.

At the time, if he dared to plead for Aidan, it wouldn’t work anyway, and he might even be resented by the leader.

He looked at Maya with a complex expression, frowning and explaining, “Maya, I’m also very saddened by your father’s matter. But there’s nothing I can do. What your father did, no male could tolerate, let alone the leader. You know the leader’s temper; anyone who stood up then would have come to no good end.”

Maya’s expression didn’t change, remaining cold and disdainful, “Wolf Fang, do you think I believe your nonsense? You’re just cowardly and afraid of death, finding excuses for yourself by saying you’re powerless.”

With that, she didn’t want to waste words with Wolf Fang any longer and walked past him, leaving.

Wolf Fang watched her departing back, opening his mouth but ultimately saying nothing.

…

Inside the dungeon, it was cold, dark, damp, the air reeking with a blend of rot, mold, and stench, a nauseating mix.

Quinn Morgan was locked in the innermost cell, her hands tightly bound with highly elastic beast tendons, suspending her on a wooden frame, her toes barely touching the ground.

Her hair was disheveled, face pale, eyes hollow, and her once exquisite beast skin skirt now tattered, stained with dust and blood.

In just a few days, she endured all kinds of torture, whipping, bone needle pricking her fingers, water dungeon immersion…

She became less than human, neither living nor dead.

She desperately wished to seek help from Orion Skyler, Warwick Storm, Xavier Frost, and the others.

Yet the dungeon was heavily guarded, airtight, with no chance of passing messages.

Maya, that heartless one, hadn’t even come to see her.

To think she had always been so good to her, secretly giving her all the best things, always protecting her.

“Truly heartless.”

Quinn cursed angrily.

She thought of Luna Sutton again, her expression turning even more unsightly.

She always suspected it was this despicable female who informed, it must be her, she’s the one who told Lyle Sutton about this.

Otherwise, after hiding it for over twenty years, why would Lyle suddenly discover her affair with Aidan?

Although Quinn didn’t know how Luna discovered it, it didn’t stop her from harboring resentment and curses.

She endlessly spewed harsh, cursed words, not stopping for a moment.

Completely forgetting that Luna Sutton was also her daughter.

Just then, Lyle Sutton appeared outside her cell with a cold expression.

Hearing the curses directed at Luna, his expression turned even colder.

He ordered the beastmen to open the cell door and stepped inside.

His gaze, like icicles, fixed on Quinn. Seeing her wretched state, his eyes showed no sympathy or pity, only intense anger and disgust.

In recent days, he had uncovered a lot.

It turned out this despicable female had more than one lover beside Aidan.

With Orion Skyler from the Leopard Tribe, Warwick Storm from The Raging Lion Tribe, and Xavier Frost from The Serpent Tribe, she had secret affairs.

She even bore two children for each of them.

He had been kept in the dark about all this, only learning after Wolf One’s thorough investigation.

Just the thought of sharing a partner with other Beastmen, being no different from others, ignited Lyle’s desire to strangle Quinn.

He stepped toward Quinn and fiercely grabbed her chin, sneering, “How has it been these past few days?”

Forced to raise her head to look at him, Quinn’s eyes brimmed with venom and rage, grinding her teeth as she replied, “Lyle Sutton, you old fool, be wise and release me immediately. Otherwise, when my lovers find out, and unite to attack, The Wolf Tribe will be finished.”

She had no fear of Lyle learning the whole truth, for the past days of torment had made it clear that Lyle would never let her go.

Lyle mocked her, ridiculing, “Your lovers? You mean Orion Skyler, Warwick Storm, Xavier Frost? Just a few fourth-stage Beastmen, average in strength and status, you think they could attack The Wolf Tribe?”

Not to mention, the leaders of The Leopard Tribe, Titus, The Raging Lion Tribe, Grayson, and The Serpent Tribe, Falcon Hawke, all had good relations with him.

This despicable female’s lovers were nothing. Even if they dared to come, he could destroy them single-handedly.
