Interstellar Beast World: The Ferocious Beast Husband Has a Wild Mind

Chapter 297 Next Time We Meet
That night, the wind was biting cold, and apart from Nain and Bai Xiao, no one knew what they talked about.

However, when they encountered an ambush on the way back to the city, they had a sense of having expected it.

Sang Qing and Shi Ying also vaguely sensed something was wrong and retreated to a safe area in time, preventing any major casualties.

Even so, Sang Qing, Shi Ying, and the special forces team members did not look very good.

The others in the team also sensed the gravity of the situation and their expressions turned serious.

Just as they were gathering the team leaders to discuss the matter, a loud cry pierced the sky.

Everyone turned to look in the direction of the sound.

Sang Qing looked up and saw the familiar, huge, dark blue wings.

Cangyun!

Suddenly, a bad feeling washed over me.

Sure enough, when they heard the news of Tao Tao's death and the tragic news of the snake lizard team members, it was like a bucket of cold water being poured over their heads.

My heartbeat suddenly slowed down, my fingers unconsciously curled and clenched, and I called out in my mind, "Xiao Yuan..."

Xiao Yuan remained silent for a while before appearing in front of Sang Qing and sighing, "Host, the dead cannot be brought back to life. Don't think of the system as omnipotent. I am not God. Allowing the host to be reborn once is already the limit."

"Moreover, you've used all your points to exchange for high-level potions and to open up your vision, so you don't have many left."

Xiaoyuan's cold, mechanical voice refuted her unrealistic fantasies.

she knows.

Of course she knew that when a person dies, they are truly dead.

That mischievous and adorable boy with eyes like a little rabbit is gone.

There are also the orcs from the lizard team who have long since developed a deep bond with each other.

The atmosphere froze, and even Claire, who was usually the loudest and most argumentative with Peach, fell silent.

Suppressed anger was evident on the faces of every member of the special forces team, along with a hint of bewilderment.

Death is a common occurrence among the orcs in their shelter.

Aside from a brief period of sadness, they don't even react much, because they don't know when they will die.

But since the healer arrived, that seems like a distant memory.

"The Empress has dispatched a large number of people to guard the outer perimeter of the fifteenth line." Cang Yun's voice was weak. After conveying this important news, he transformed into a little blue bird.

Shrinking its body was probably a way for Cangyun to repair itself. Shi Ying, who was closest to it, put aside past grievances, reached out and caught it, then handed it to You Fei, who was standing nearby.

Then she looked at Sang Qing with concern.

Sang Qing shivered from the cold, her fingers tightening little by little until her knuckles turned white.

Now she understood that the Queen would never let her go back alive.

Regardless of whether she succeeds in clearing the fog forest, she will sacrifice herself for this mission.

Those in power are truly ruthless.

Her fist was enveloped by a warm, large hand, and Shi Ying pried her fingers apart one by one, revealing bloody marks from her fingernails.

Shi Ying frowned, said nothing, gently wiped with a cloth, and then took out the medicine that Xiao Yuan had prepared earlier and applied it.

He then wrapped the blood-stained cloth around his hand and tied it in a knot.

She stared intently at the knot on the back of her hand and let out a cold laugh.

That's ridiculous.

A fierce glint surged in her clear eyes; she had never entertained such a rebellious thought before.

"The Phoenix bloodline is a natural imperial star. All royal families throughout history have been of the Phoenix bloodline. Therefore, if you cannot be used by her, your existence will be a thorn in her side, and she will always be wary of you."

Nain seemed to be able to see through Sang Qing's thoughts, or perhaps he was intentionally reminding her, his clear and gentle voice carrying a hint of melancholy.

Bloodline?

Sang Qing looked up at Nain.

Nain seemed to know a lot.

Moreover, she felt that something was off about Nain these past two days; he always seemed a little melancholy.

But he was always the quietest one in the team, unlike the other members of the Lion and Tiger team who were lively and active. He always stood aside, watching and smiling calmly and gently. Even days of hardship could not hide his otherworldly temperament, like a piece of finely carved jade.

"You..." Sang Qing looked at Nain's face, which seemed even paler than before, as if it might vanish at any moment, "Are you alright?"

Knowing he couldn't hide it, Nain still coughed twice and repeated palely, "It's nothing serious, Healer, you don't need to worry about me."

Sang Qing didn't ask any more questions, but instead had Xiao Yuan scan it directly.

"Host, the situation is not good." Xiao Yuan shook her head, her voice somewhat serious.

Sang Qing frowned. Xiao Yuan said the situation was bad, so there might really be a problem.

Do you have any medicine for this treatment?

Xiaoyuan: "Yes, but it only treats the symptoms, not the root cause."

"Give it to me first, and make sure it's properly packaged," Sang Qing said directly.

For now, we can only try to alleviate the symptoms and will go to the hospital for a check-up when we return to Beijing.

Sang Qing, using her sleeve to conceal herself, handed Nain a vial with the label torn off. "Drink this vial; it might be effective."

Nain wanted to say no, but seeing Sang Qing's unyielding gaze, he accepted it anyway and thanked her earnestly.

Sang Qing would occasionally take out some incredibly effective wound medicines or potions, saying they were newly developed by Jiang Family Pharmaceutical Company, and they wouldn't ask any questions.

The Jiang family did indeed provide a lot of supplies before they set off.

After Nain finished drinking the medicine, all the teams gathered around Sang Qing to discuss countermeasures.

The innermost layer consists of orcs from the special forces; the deaths of Peach and the lizard team are a sword hanging over their heads.

But they have no time for sadness; their immediate priority is to figure out how to break out of their current predicament.

The Empress chose to strike at this time precisely because she had accurately predicted that they had just gone through a month-long battle, were out of ammunition and supplies, and were at their weakest point.

They sent out several times their number of men, clearly leaving no way out.

"I'll lead some men to draw away the main force, and you all escort Awan back to the capital from the direction of Luo City," Shi Ying suggested.

However, the special forces team collectively rejected the idea, saying, "No, Major General Shi, you are the strongest. You must stay by the healer's side to protect her safety."

"I'll go," Bai Xiao stepped forward.

The orc from the Flying Birds team stood behind him. "This is still our specialty."

"Me too!" Claire jumped up, her face full of righteous indignation. "Damn it, a bunch of heartless bastards, let's avenge Tao Tao."

Those who have truly experienced death are fearless; not a single orc in the special forces team retreated.

Having come this far, how could we possibly accept our fate so bitterly?

"Dear healer, we believe in you and that you will lead us to a brighter tomorrow."

A sentence brimming with expectation and profound meaning.

Sang Qing remained silent for a long time, her lower lip pressed tightly together.

This is undoubtedly dangerous, but there is no better way.

The innermost ten lines have extremely high saturation, which has a great impact on the orcs. The treatment has been almost non-stop for the past two days.

Her mental energy was greatly depleted, and it was no longer something that could be fully recovered with just a nap. She had only managed to recover about 30% of it.

After some discussion, it was decided that Bai Xiao and Claire would lead a portion of the special forces orcs to lure the enemy away.

Having prepared everything, Sang Qing called out to Bai Xiao.

"All-knowing".

Bai Xiao turned around.

Sang Qing smiled and said, "Let's go back to District Seven to see the snow next time we meet."

So you must return safely.

Bai Xiao's gaze shifted from Sang Qing to Nain behind her, then back to Sang Qing, and she smiled, "Okay."

Just kidding, there won't be a next time.

His light brown eyes swept over the crowd again.

Set me free, everyone.
