Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 504: Chapter 487: Find That Female!

Lu Xiao sighed softly, his fingertips gently caressing her cheek, ”Female Master, since we are husband and wife, we should have no reservations.”

”Do you plan to bury this secret forever?”

”Please tell me, what are you really afraid of?”

”Can’t I share your worries?” he asked softly, his gray-blue eyes filled with a complex light, reflecting her image.

Shen Tang looked into those eyes full of deep affection and sadness, her throat tightening, unable to utter a word.

In the past, she could brush it off casually, make up an excuse without any psychological burden. Even though unsure if she could truly deceive this keen man before her, at least she could create a temporary facade.

But now, she neither wanted to deceive her Beast Husband nor could she reveal the truth.

After a long time, Shen Tang spoke hoarsely, ”If I say the price of knowing the truth might be losing me forever, would you still pursue it?”

”Tangtang?” Lu Xiao saw the tears at the corners of her eyes, his always composed demeanor showing a hint of panic.

He hurriedly pulled her into his arms, his voice hoarse, ”I’m sorry, I’m just too worried about you, I’m not trying to push you.”

In the past, Lu Xiao never intended to delve into the bottom of things; everyone has secrets, including himself.

But this time, he was just too worried, worried that something would happen to Shen Tang, leaving him with a deep sense of helplessness.

He feared being unable to help, terrified that she might suddenly disappear, not knowing where she was, alive or dead.

Lu Xiao hated this uncontrollable feeling.

And feared truly losing her even more.

Feeling the male’s concern, Shen Tang reached out to encircle Lu Xiao’s broad shoulders, burying her face in his chest, her voice muffled, ”There are some secrets I can’t reveal right now, but I should indeed tell you something—I can teleport anytime and anywhere, which is... my special superpower, allowing me to instantly reach elsewhere.”

She chose to be honest, not wanting her Beast Husband to worry anymore, and knowing this secret could soon be exposed.

”So you truly left the Imperial Palace tonight and even met Necro’s corporeal form? Obtained his Essence Blood?” Lu Xiao’s voice suddenly deepened, realizing his tone was too impulsive, he then softened his attitude, ”Tangtang, that’s too dangerous.”

”I know.” Shen Tang explained softly, ”Though risky, I am confident I will succeed!”

”But did you consider what if you failed?” Lu Xiao gently stroked her brow and eye, his gaze deep, ”Even if you found Necro’s hiding place, I could go with Xue Yinzhou.”

Shen Tang shook her head, ”Necro is too cautious, the two of you may not be able to force his true form out...” She pressed her lips, said melancholy, ”Moreover, time is short, I could only do this, or Xiao Jin would be beyond rescue.”

She looked up directly at Lu Xiao, saying without hesitation, ”If you were the one in trouble today, I would do the same!”

Lu Xiao’s Adam’s apple rolled, unable to say words of blame anymore.

He hugged her tightly, sighed long, ”You are too kind-hearted.”

From childhood to adulthood, he had never seen a female love her partner so deeply, even risking her life to save a male.

To have such a kind and gentle Female Master, he didn’t know whether to be grateful or worried, but hearing those words, he was undoubtedly happy and satisfied.

”But I hope this never happens.” Lu Xiao lowered his head, his beautifully arched thin lips lightly touching her hair, kissing the sweet strands, ”If that day ever comes, I’ll die before you.”

”Ah Xiao!” Shen Tang raised her head in shock, facing the man’s warm smile.

He lightly pinched her earlobe, his voice carrying a hint of teasing, ”Just a hypothetical scenario, it won’t come true.”

Shen Tang hurriedly covered his mouth, don’t set such a flag!

Lu Xiao chuckled as he pulled her hand down, gazing deeply at her, ”Tangtang, meeting you is our luck, but I hope you won’t be so reckless in the future.”

”You are not only our Female Master but also the ruler of a nation, your safety is most important.”

Shen Tang nodded obediently, indicating she understood.

Lu Xiao, looking at her expression, knew she’s likely to dare again next time.

He sighed softly, rubbed her hair helplessly, seems he needs to keep a closer watch in the future!

At dawn the next day, the doctor came with instruments for a thorough examination of Xiao Jin. The device within his Crystal Core was still present, but it was deactivated, a blessing in this misfortune.

Xiao Jin was astonished to learn there was something inside him, looking rather grim.

But he had no memory of this, falling into deep suspicion:

What the hell!

Could it be he was actually captured for experiments as a child?

Shen Tang comforted him, ”Alright, don’t think too much, things are resolved, and there won’t be any more issues.”

She lightened the mood, ”Rosenia lost the negotiation, and Xiao Jin’s body recovered, double celebration—a grand feast to celebrate tonight!”

This proposal was unanimously agreed upon by the Beast Husband.

Even Song Fang brought his Beast Husband over to help and invited some officials and their families for a lavish banquet.

...

On the other side, at the rebel army headquarters.

Necro returned to the palace late at night, unable to sleep.

Every time he closed his eyes, the stunning silhouette flashed in his mind, recalling those water-filled eyes.

Those eyes seemed inexplicably familiar, as if seen somewhere before, yet he couldn’t remember no matter how hard he tried.

Necro wasn’t one with good memory, especially disinterested in those unimportant, not even willing to spare them a glance.

”What is the leader thinking about? Want to share with me?” A seductive female snuggled into his arms, only to find his gaze cold and indifferent.

The female was shocked internally, yet forced a smile, wrapping herself around him like a snake, her delicate hand stroking his chest slowly downward, ”Or... do something pleasurable to relieve boredom?”

But Necro remained unmoved, even pushing her away, standing up to leave.

The female was stunned in place, not daring to follow.

Necro stood outside, gazing up at the pitch-black sky.

The image of that moonlit beauty repeatedly surfaced in his mind, along with the black-and-white cat’s figure—even the bite from last time seemed worth reminiscing.

No wonder Fu Teng was so keen on that wild cat; it turns out there’s a hidden beauty.

Recalling nearly harming her multiple times, Necro’s cold heart surprisingly felt a twinge of guilt.

No wonder she was anxious to escape.

She must be very afraid of him.

”Someone come.”

Several figures swiftly emerged from the shadows and knelt, ”Leader, what are your orders?”

”Find a female.”

The beastmen looked surprised, not daring to ask further, ”Who is the leader looking for? Name? Appearance? Family background?”

Necro was silent for a moment; he didn’t know who the female was, nor her identity, not even her face clearly. Yet she haunted his thoughts, day and night.

After a long time, he slowly spoke, ”She is... a female of the Cat Clan, a black-and-white spotted cat.”

”Find her, and there’ll be millions in reward!”

”Yes, sir!”
