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

Chapter 613: Chapter 554: Our Leader Requests a Meeting with You (2)

However, at this exhilarating moment, an unexpected change occurred!

A sudden commotion erupted within the army as a group of impostors tore off their military uniforms, revealing black clothing marked with blood-red skulls—rebel army!

Once they tore off their disguises, they swiftly drew blades and weapons, surrounding the present Beastmen.

This time, the international conference was heavily guarded; no one expected that the rebel army could lay ambush, completely infiltrating the nations as evidence of their deep influence!

Among those present were high-ranking political figures from various countries, including several Monarchs. The atmosphere instantly became panic-stricken to an extreme!

An expression of shock flashed across Shen Tang’s face, her complexion paling as she had not anticipated the rebel army to be so audacious as to directly attack an international conference!

Xue Yinzhou and others quickly sheltered her behind them, cold air emanating around them as if even the air itself was about to freeze.

A young man with short reddish-brown hair emerged from the crowd, clapping and laughing lightly, with a friendly demeanor, ”The Monarch of the Night Glow Empire is truly young and promising, spoke too well!”

His appearance was upright, yet an ominous aura permeated him, the kind of hostility that clung to those with bloodstained hands that no disguise could hide.

Hence, the smile on his face seemed particularly insincere.

Xiao Jin immediately rushed out, intending to capture him.

North was grabbed by the neck and pinned to the ground. As a Tenth Rank Beastman, if Xiao Jin’s punch landed, North would not die but would certainly be disfigured.

North instantly lost his composure, hurriedly explaining, ”Don’t act impulsively! We didn’t come here to start a war! I truly admire the words of the Night Glow Monarch, genuinely coming to discuss cooperation!”

This statement did hold some reasoning; had the rebel army come for slaughter, the scene would have been drenched in blood long before their identities were revealed.

Both sides’ troops were in a tense standoff, yet they hadn’t truly started fighting, as if restrained by some invisible force.

That force naturally stemmed from the orders issued above.

Discussion among the crowd intensified. Everyone knew the rebel army’s notorious reputation, countless have died at their hands.

Each nation holds deep-seated resentment against the rebel army, cooperation? Impossible!

They only wish to execute their enemies and avenge past grievances!

Shen Tang and her Beast Husband also knitted their brows, not believing the rebel army to be a friendly and compliant existence.

Even though Shen Tang knows of the hidden past involving the Blood Clan, that’s merely Necro’s one-sided story, the truth remains unknown.

Necro and his subordinate rebel army slaughtered countless innocent civilians; it’s an indisputable fact.

She has no right to forgive them on behalf of the dead Beastmen.

Nor would she believe how sincere the repentance of these executioners could be!

The Commander likely foresaw this layer. Seeing Xiao Jin’s fist about to descend, he was frightened, shielding his face, not daring to play mysterious any longer, and hastily said, ”We came here seeking the Purification Tree Seeds!”

Xiao Jin’s fist abruptly stopped mid-air, barely half an inch from his face.

How close it was!

Upon hearing the reason, Shen Tang’s brows slightly relaxed. Turns out the rebel army came for this, perhaps somewhat justifiable.

Seeing her soften, North seized the opportunity, ”Our rebel army is aware of the heavy sins of the past, difficult to seek forgiveness. Yet this time, we genuinely came seeking help.”

He gazed intensely at Shen Tang, continuing, ”Our leader wishes to meet you personally!”

Shen Tang’s heart suddenly sank.

Lu Xiao and others furrowed their brows even tighter.

Xiao Jin’s fist swung again, heavily landing on North’s face, ”Are you daydreaming!”

The present Beastmen were shocked and uncertain, discussing animatedly.

The rebel army was infamous; how could cooperation be discussed merely by their few words?

That would be tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger!

Absolutely unreliable!

North’s face swelled, his nasal bones skewed, blood trickling from his mouth corners. He coughed violently, the metallic smell spreading in his mouth, yet he stubbornly refuted, ”Didn’t the Night Glow Country Master personally say that? Welcoming all Beastmen worldwide to join the Dawn Alliance, if they genuinely join, past grievances can be overlooked!”

”I came under the leader’s orders.”

Upon hearing this, the Beastmen drew in sharp breaths, terrified. The legendary mysterious leader of the rebel army, with unfathomable strength, had single-handedly transformed the force into a top-level menace.

Could it truly be him...genuinely wishing for cooperation?

North continued, ”The leader heard of the Purification Tree matter, showing great interest, hence...”

He looked up, across the crowd at the slender figure on the high platform, saying each word deliberately, ”The leader wishes to meet you personally.”

Shen Tang’s complexion altered slightly, cold sweat seeping from her palm. She originally assumed she had long settled matters with Necro, that they would never meet again, yet unexpectedly, came this incident.

No longer in the guise of Xiao Cui Hua, she had cut their bonds with Destiny Scissors. Necro should no longer be affected by systemic tools; she didn’t believe he could recognize her, nor did she believe he still harbored affection.

But...to say she wasn’t nervous would be a lie. What if there were accidents?

She was unwilling to bear any mishaps.

Shen Tang naturally didn’t wish to face Necro in talks. She could have come up with numerous reasons to refuse, yet didn’t anticipate them leveraging this, something she herself promised, leaving no room to refuse, to avoid self-undermining her authority.

After hesitating for a moment, her heart in turmoil, she remained outwardly calm, speaking plainly, ”Since your leader indeed shows sincerity, then please let him come meet me himself.”

The rebel army invaded multiple nations, slaughtering countless, with leader Necro being the target of public criticism. Despite his formidable strength, never publicly appearing over the years showed his cautious nature; it’s unlikely he would expose his identity for this.

Shen Tang gambled that Necro wouldn’t personally come.

But she never expected, the next moment, a low, magnetic voice emerged from the air,

”Much obliged for the Night Glow Monarch’s invitation, it’s better to oblige than to decline.”

Shen Tang’s heart shook violently!

Blood lines appeared floating in the air, intertwining to form a tall and slender figure.

The man’s appearance was deep and attractive, his skin as pale as paper, lips red as blood. His long, narrow black eyes darkly alluring, upon closer look, a vortex-like crimson spread deep within his pupils. The aura exuding from him was overwhelmingly strong, instinctively causing fear in the Beastmen present, invoking deep-seated anxiety!

Shen Tang’s face turned pale, her hands hanging by her side involuntarily clenched, nails digging into her palms.

He truly came!

Standing beside her, Lu Xiao keenly sensed her tense aura, even captured a trace of an unnamable...anxiety?

He gently grasped her hand, whispering comfort, ”Female Master, don’t be afraid, with so many people present, Necro dares not act rashly.”

He thought Shen Tang was in fear; after all, Necro as the rebel army leader, had terrifying strength and cruel means, he posed an extremely dangerous threat.

But with them alongside her, they would not let him harm her at all.

The atmosphere on scene immediately dropped to a freezing point!

However, Necro showed no intention to act. From the moment he appeared, his gaze had been fixated on the figure in the back of the crowd, locking onto Shen Tang, as though those around were nonexistent.

Rather than coming for cooperation, it seemed more like...coming to see her.

Purification Tree perhaps just seemed like a casual excuse.

Shen Tang made every effort to maintain outward composure, not letting him detect any flaw.

Necro looked at her, softly speaking,

”What is your relation with Xiao Cui Hua?”
