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

Chapter 972: Chapter 731: I Can’t Bear to Kill Her (2)

”Every experimental subject in our hands has a genetic backup. This device was made specifically to capture you. You are destined to be reclaimed by us.”

As they spoke, they all looked towards the leader, a tall, slender man.

He was also dressed in the same Divine Robe, hiding his appearance, with a few strands of purple long hair peeking out from the hood. The purple was not a cool hue but more reddish, looking very striking and charming.

The tone of those Divine Envoys was exceedingly respectful,

”Luckily, this time Lord Mansa took action personally, otherwise, we might really not be able to catch this female.”

This Beastman called Mansa seemed to hold a high status, and he was long tired of these flattering remarks. His gaze seemed to always be on Shen Tang, carrying a look of intriguing curiosity.

He seemed very satisfied and said lightly,

”This experimental subject is important to the organization. Take her away.”

”...Wait!”

Shen Tang, exerting all her strength, clenched her hand into a fist and slammed it against the glass case, glaring at them with anger, ”I, I have something to say!”

The envoys of the Divine Hall seemed somewhat amused, as an experimental subject being captured still wanted to talk to them — did she aim to bargain? It was utterly absurd.

But Mansa looked at her with interest, his voice deep and pleasant, with a slight hook at the end, more androgynous and alluring than the usual male voice, as if it could soften one’s bones, ”Oh? What do you want to say?”

Shen Tang bit her lip; though she couldn’t care less to speak a word with these bastards, she knew clearly enough that if she was really taken away, it would be the end.

She must quickly buy herself some time, recover her superpower, and earn a chance to escape.

”I... I want to know how you discovered my identity! Even if you want to kill me, at least let me die understanding why!”

Although Shen Tang was primarily stalling for time, she indeed harbored this doubt.

She had been on Eris Star for quite some time, and there had been no movement from the Hand of Creation, indicating they initially didn’t know of her presence, nor could they monitor her actions, as though they had only suddenly begun to act recently.

Perhaps seeing her hysterical look was too amusing, someone blurted out, ”How else could we know, of course, someone told us! The whereabouts you’ve painstakingly concealed have long been exposed!”

As they spoke, they seemed to want to see this experimental subject look more furious and pained, so another person added more to provoke her, ”You’d never imagine the one who exposed your whereabouts is the person closest to you!”

Shen Tang’s expression froze suddenly, her hand clenched into a fist, veins pulsing on her wrist.

The person closest to her...

In the eyes of these people, she was just a lab mouse; no one would bother deceiving a lab mouse, so they might be telling the truth.

After her initial shock and disbelief, Shen Tang quickly calmed down.

She had no other relatives left in this world, so the ones closest to her were naturally her Beast Husbands.

But she had absolute trust in the Beast Husbands who had walked through so much with her; they could never betray her.

However, there was one exception, Liu Ye.

In a certain sense, he was both her Beast Husband and not her Beast Husband.

He was her closest person, yet also her most hated.

Moreover, Liu Ye had previously sent people to hunt her down because he sensed something from the part of energy transformed into a Crystal Core left inside her by Jia Lan.

It must be him who conveyed this to the Hand of Creation.

Shen Tang said, ”The person you’re referring to is Liu Ye, right?”

Those Divine Envoys across still held a mocking tone, ”So what if it is, or isn’t? You’re just an experimental product, you don’t need to know so much.”

”An experimental subject out of control, having killed so many of us — you’ll suffer dearly later.”

”Your future days will be worse than death.”

Those people said cruelly.

Mansa suddenly raised his hand, interrupting their words.

The Divine Envoys quieted down immediately, not daring to say another word.

Mansa turned to look at her from not far away, then stepped closer, his voice still androgynous and enchanting, ”Don’t worry, we won’t let you die.”

”Just have a good sleep.”

”When you wake, you’ll be home.”

”...Your true birthplace.”

Somehow, this person’s voice seemed to carry a special bewitching power. Shen Tang suddenly felt a wave of dizziness before her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness.

Wu Wei saw the people of the Divine Hall wanting to take Shen Tang away and hurriedly rushed forward to stop them, ”You cannot take this female away. She must be handed over to me! She’s a Beastman wanted by our Sky City, and this is Sky City’s territory; every wanted criminal should be under Sky City’s jurisdiction! You have no right to take her privately!”

Mansa’s attitude remained gentle, but his voice carried undeniable authority, ”I’m sorry, I cannot hand her over to you.”

Wu Wei, though arrogant and self-important, had witnessed the power of the Divine Hall through this incident, far beyond her imagination.

She had no choice but to settle for second best, ”Then kill her, kill her now! I want to see with my own eyes that she’s truly dead.”

Mansa said, ”I will not kill her.”

Wu Wei’s face stiffened, threatening, ”Then forget about further cooperation!”

Mansa’s smile faded, his voice carrying a subtle, profound meaning, turning colder and more ghostly, ”This is something, Miss, that you cannot decide.”

”Perhaps, the young lady has misunderstood some things. The Divine Hall’s visit here isn’t for discussion but to make an announcement.”

Wu Wei’s face turned even uglier, ”What do you mean?”

Mansa did not answer further, just taking his people and leaving.

”You all—”

Wu Wei had never been treated like this before, fury rising in her heart.

She hurried to lead her people to intercept again, however, a powerful pressure suddenly swept over, nearly forcing her to her knees, her face turning pale instantly, and all her words vanished into thin air.

She also instantly lost the thought of pursuing to seize the person.

She gritted her teeth, forcing herself to endure this matter.

Even though she couldn’t kill this female, the fact that the female had fallen into the hands of the Hand of Creation meant she would endure a fate worse than death—making no difference from being dead.

This female thus posed no threat to her naturally.

Thinking this way, Wu Wei felt much better in her heart.

She quickly led her men to follow along.
