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

Chapter 1146: Chapter 827: Life Replacement Talisman

Liu Ye was extremely angry, Jia Lan dared to use his identity to secretly take away the female, after he sensed something was wrong, he came here immediately, and the two clashed in battle.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time the two truly faced off.

After splitting into two entities, the power of the original body was completely halved and not as strong as their peak battle strength.

Yet even with only half of their strength, the two were still extremely formidable. After the separation of two conflicting powers within them, they could control their strength even more freely.

Jia Lan’s soul power was now fully restored, no longer weak as before, and the two were evenly matched, fighting fiercely.

Just as the battle was intensifying, powerful energy fluctuations came from the direction of the Divine Hall’s entrance, and the expressions of the two immediately changed.

Shen Li and the others actually came over.

”I said, she won’t escape from my hands!” Liu Ye’s eyes turned red, that female had deceived him repeatedly, leveraging his trust to try and escape from him time and again.

After capturing her this time, she must not escape again.

Liu Ye punched Jia Lan fiercely and rushed toward the exit.

”With me here, you will never catch Tangtang; she is not your captive!”

Jia Lan disregarded his injuries and swiftly chased after him, determined to block Liu Ye even at the risk of his life.

Liu Ye furiously cursed, ”You’re loyal to her indeed! When she escapes, how much space do you think there’ll be for you beside her? Besides those four Beast Husbands, she has been covertly involved with other males from Foreign Clans. What do you count as?”

”You fool, if you truly love her, you should listen to me!”

Jia Lan wouldn’t listen at all, insisting on holding Liu Ye back even if it meant his death.

He had died once, there’s nothing left to fear.

As the confrontation grew increasingly intense, Liu Ye suddenly halted, his heart seemingly emptied for a split second, as if some power was extracted from his body, leaving his heart feeling hollow, as if some connection was severed.

He immediately realized that the effect of the tool had disappeared.

—Was the tool ineffective?

—Or has she...

Liu Ye’s heart suddenly ached intensely, a pain that cut into his heart so foreign yet profound, making his eyes blood-red.

And it was at the moment of his distraction that Jia Lan punched him.

Boom—

Liu Ye was sent flying, crashing into a building, which instantly collapsed into ruins.

Amidst the cloud of dust, Liu Ye crawled out of the rubble awkwardly, enraged and embarrassed, wanting to retaliate.

A powerful energy wave swept through, seeming to warp the entire space.

Before they could react, the expanding space forcibly pushed them away.

Once they regained their senses, they found themselves outside the Divine Hall’s domain, back in the outer world.

Simultaneously, Shen Li, Lu Xiao, and Xiao Jin, who were also pushed out, recovered from their shock and began searching anxiously nearby.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t find that familiar figure, nor could they even detect her presence.

...

Shen Tang woke up and found herself in a dense, primitive jungle, opening her eyes to see a saber-toothed tiger with its mouth open, ready to devour her.

Damn!

She was so frightened that she instantly teleported away, and in a flash, she was on a mountaintop.

Looking down at the lush forest beneath, breathing in the fresh air, she immediately realized this was not Eris Star.

She had returned to the Beast World Continent.

Although the Beast World Continent also had many Polluted Lands, it was far less than on Eris Star. The continent has many untouched primeval jungles, with air not dense with pollution, making it fresh and invigorating, evoking a long-missed sense of familiarity and nostalgia.

She was finally back.

However, she was the only one who returned; Shen Li and the others were still on Eris Star.

Shu Kui was still there, sacrificed to save her...

Shen Tang closed her eyes, feeling immense pain, ”System, can the Life Replacement Talisman save him?”

[Successfully rescued, still unconscious.]

”That’s good... If that fool had died like that, I’m afraid I’d feel guilty for a lifetime, unable to repay.”

Shen Tang returned to the Imperial Palace.

Hu Yun is now the Great General of the Empire. He didn’t disappoint Shen Tang’s expectations and is now a powerful Eighth Rank Beastman, overseeing many affairs of the Forbidden Guard Army in the palace.

He was patrolling inside the palace when he suddenly sensed something, his expression shifted dramatically. After hastily instructing his subordinates, he quickly headed toward the bedchamber.

A female stood by the window, her figure tall and graceful, with long, black hair cascading down her back. Her clothes bore signs of battle damage, yet they could not conceal her noble and captivating aura.

Hearing the noise, Shen Tang turned to look. The tiger clan youth in her memory appeared more mature and towering than before she left. She smiled slightly, ”Hu Yun, long time no see.”

Hu Yun, who had long become a mature and dignified male and was a commanding Great General outside, had his eyes instantly reddened upon seeing her.

He staggered forward two steps, murmuring in excitement, ”Your Majesty, is it really you? I’m not dreaming, am I...”

”It’s me, I’ve returned, long time no see,” Shen Tang said with a smile.

Hu Yun said in a deep voice, ”Eleven months and seven days, in less than a month, it will be exactly one year since Your Majesty left.”

”...” Has it really been that long?

Hu Yun, unable to conceal his excitement, anxiously assessed the female in front of him.

His Majesty was as remarkably beautiful and radiant as in memory, having grown more mature and composed. Her eyes seemed to hold a sense of vicissitude, weariness, and sentiment, filled with many complex emotions he couldn’t decipher.

What surprised him most was that Her Majesty’s aura had become incredibly dense and strong, even though she intentionally restrained her pressure, he still felt an overwhelming sense of oppression!

Although Her Majesty’s strength was formidable before, beyond his comparison, he could distinctly feel it was far less than now. The current Her Majesty was a peak existence he could only aspire to for a lifetime.

He instinctively wanted to kneel, not daring to gaze any further, for fear of desecrating the person before him.

He realized that Her Majesty must have experienced much and grown significantly stronger during her time away.

Qiu Yang soon arrived as well.

He had remained in the palace because while the puppet could deceive those outside, many affairs within needed attention.

Along with some trusted by Shen Tang, he helped manage various affairs.

The moment he saw Shen Tang, he was utterly shocked and promptly knelt down with a thud, ”Master, you have returned! This old servant is truly overjoyed!”

Shen Tang quickly raised her hand, ”Stand up, no need for a big fuss over my return, it’s enough if only you few know.”

”With your return, Master, my heart is at ease. No longer do I live in constant fear,” Qiu Yang stretched his neck, glancing behind her, wondering, ”And ... Jiuli? Didn’t he return with you, Master?”

Shen Tang’s eyes darkened momentarily but quickly resumed their usual warmth, ”A lot happened in between, it’s quite complex. I’ll explain it to you later.”

”During my absence, how has the Empire been?”

Hu Yun respectfully responded, ”Rest assured, Your Majesty, the elders and I have been diligently attending to matters. The Night Glow Empire is now a strong nation, with no one daring to disturb the borders. The country is prosperous, peaceful, and envied by many foreign beastmen.”

”After that great war, the once-perennially feuding nations and clans have all put down their arms. Even Rosenia has restored friendly relations with our country, and the commercial exchanges between our nations are growing more frequent.”

”Most fortunately, the Polluted Land is now under control and is even showing signs of reversion.”

”Now all the nations and clans are flourishing, a scenario we wouldn’t have dared dream of before...”

As Hu Yun spoke those words, he looked at Shen Tang with eyes full of admiration and respect.

If not for Her Majesty, they would likely never have the fulfilling, abundant life they have today.

Hearing those words, Shen Tang’s heart brimmed with warmth and happiness.

However, the affairs concerning Eris Star left her with mixed emotions, and unwilling to speak further, she excused herself to rest, asking them to withdraw.

[Host, Shu Kui has awakened.]

”I want to see him.”

A flash of light, and the black-haired youth thought to have died, appeared alive once again!

”Xi... Xiao Xi?”

Shu Kui was utterly shocked, wasn’t he already dead from self-destruction?

Upon resurrection, he was left unclothed, his slender and elegant figure in plain view. Shen Tang blushed, hurriedly retrieving a set of Jia Lan’s clothes from Space to hand him, the two having similar builds.

”Quickly put these on, I’ll explain everything to you shortly.”

Shu Kui came to his senses, his ears tinged red, taking the clothes to the bathroom.
