Oops! My Beast Mates Can Hear My Inner Voice

Little Nine: "Host, it sounds like they’ve started fighting outside."

Su Mo frowned, saying nothing. It sounded like the clang of weapons clashing.

But the sound was distant, so she couldn’t hear clearly.

Little Nine’s voice was excited. "Could it be them? Are they fighting their way here?"

Su Mo’s frown deepened. ’If it really is them,’ she thought, ’and they can’t find me... with their Combat Power, shouldn’t it be easy for them to retreat unscathed?’

At that moment, behind her room, Cang Lan’s position had been exposed. He was already locked in a fierce battle with a group of men!

As a Level Six Beastman, dealing with Jin Tong’s subordinates was a simple matter for him.

He was like a Hell Asura, his golden, bestial eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.

Wind Claw was his ultimate killing move, a technique that harnessed his explosive power and the unique advantage of a Leopard Beastman’s sharp claws.

With a single, precise strike, he would hit an enemy’s vital point, killing them instantly.

He moved so fast his opponents had no time to react. Like a phantom, he flashed past them, and in an instant, a whole group of them collapsed to the ground!

He had felled them all without even using his full power.

Vivid crimson blood dripped from his fingertips. Cang Lan’s sharp eyes swept over the remaining men, his gaze filled with an almost sickly indifference.

"I’m taking my wife!"

"If you want to take her, you can try asking in Yama Hall!"

The next second, Cang Lan felt a vicious attack closing in.

With a slight frown, he twisted his body, precisely dodging the blow before forcefully countering the attack.

As Jin Tong’s right-hand man, Lin Shan’s power was considerable.

In fact, his Level was one higher than Cang Lan’s.

When Mo Xiao followed Cang Lan’s trail and arrived, he found him locked in a heated battle with Lin Shan.

Cang Lan’s techniques were vicious, but his Level was lower than Lin Shan’s, and he was gradually beginning to struggle.

Seeing Lin Shan about to resort to a dirty trick, Mo Xiao leaped to Cang Lan’s side, batting away three poisoned needles that had been aimed at him.

In an instant, only a few afterimages remained as the three figures moved like lightning.

Mo Xiao and Cang Lan’s attacks were fierce and perfectly synchronized. Lin Shan was struck by the force of Mo Xiao’s palm and sent staggering backward.

A trickle of blood escaped the corner of his lips. He scowled at his surrounding subordinates and barked, "Get them! The Sect Leader will reward you handsomely for their capture! Dead or alive!"

Mo Xiao frowned and said to Cang Lan, "We can’t stay here. We need to get out of here, fast!"

Cang Lan frowned, but before he could reply, another wave of people swarmed in.

Among them were many high-Level Beastmen.

Jin Tong himself stood among them. His cold voice cut through the noise with a single command: "Kill!"

In an instant, the glint of cold steel filled the air as the scene descended into utter chaos.

Cang Lan and Mo Xiao were hopelessly outnumbered, and the situation was growing more desperate by the second.

At first, Jin Tong merely stood by and watched the battle. But eventually, his patience wore thin. He entered the fray like a phantom, a blur of light and shadow. Every single one of his attacks aimed for Cang Lan and Mo Xiao’s weak points—they were vicious, ruthless, and impossible to dodge!

Mo Xiao and Cang Lan both knew they had no hope of winning if the fight dragged on.

As another of Jin Tong’s vicious attacks bore down on them, Cang Lan made a split-second decision. He shoved Mo Xiao away, sending him flying several yards, and roared, "Go now!"

Mo Xiao’s expression darkened for a moment. Then, he leaped to the top of a ridge and vanished into the night in a flash.

「Outside the cave.」

Fei Yan watched as Mo Xiao returned alone. The hem of his black robes was stained with dark, telltale patches of blood, and his body was covered in scrapes.

He frowned.

’This situation,’ he thought, ’is probably more complicated than we imagined.’

Yue Ying’s brow furrowed as well.

Now that Cang Lan was also trapped on the mountain, Jin Tong had another hostage.

Fei Yan said with a grave expression, "Jiang Wu, the one who led the attack on the Tiger Clan, is also nearby. The situation is not in our favor. The Third Young Master has already gone back to the Tiger Clan for reinforcements, and Ye Yuan has returned to the East Sea to rally our forces."

"For now, we hold our position here and wait for them to arrive with their men. We can’t afford to act rashly. Jin Tong used our wife as bait to lure us here; it’s very likely he wants to wipe us all out in one fell swoop."

A cold glint flashed in Yue Ying’s eyes. "If they wanted a fight, they should have just said so. Capturing my wife... they have a death wish!"

Mo Xiao glanced at the Snake Clan soldiers behind him.

He hadn’t brought many men with him. They were too close to the North Wing, and he had to guard against a potential sneak attack there. They would have to strengthen their patrols tonight.

Footsteps broke the silence from behind them.

The three of them turned to see Long Yan hurrying toward them, his face etched with worry and his clothes covered in the dust of a long journey.

He opened his mouth to ask Mo Xiao about the situation, but closed it when he saw the other man’s injuries. He decided not to press the issue.

"Young Master Snake, I’ve already returned and mobilized the Dragon Clan’s elite soldiers. They are on their way as we speak." Long Yan’s gaze was intense as he looked at Mo Xiao, each word ringing with conviction. "If there is anything you need from me, you have only to ask!"
