Chapter 56 The Beast Crystal Stings People's Eyes

Xingkong's gaze fell on Teng's neck, his brows furrowed, and he said, "You still need to save your life to find Fuying, so don't act rashly later."

If it were the old Teng, he naturally wouldn't be worried, but now...

Teng noticed the starry sky's gaze and quickly raised her hand to cover the markings on her neck.

His eyes were cold as he calmly said, "Fuying is no longer the most important thing; living is."

Xingkong pursed her lips, her eyes serene: "Are you still thinking about Huahua?"

Teng clenched his fist, feeling a bitter taste spreading to his heart, like insects gnawing at him, causing unbearable pain.

He encountered a female like Fuying as soon as he came of age, was forced into a contract, ruined his life, and in his most painful and desperate moment, he met a female who was devoted to him and even jumped off the thorny cliff for him.

Xingkong sighed softly and said in a low voice, "Huahua really only hopes that you will live well."

Just then, a gust of wind swept in, and a jet-black winged dragon that had been circling above the giant lizard tribe swooped down, transformed into human form, and suddenly exclaimed, "Starry Sky! Something's wrong with the people of the giant lizard tribe!"

Upon hearing this, Teng and Xingkong both tensed up.

Xingkong glanced at the giant lizard tribe and said in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

Teng frowned, his handsome face instantly turning gloomy: "Quiet, too quiet."

The black pterosaur lowered its voice, a wary glint in its eyes: "That's the strange thing—"

"The members of the giant lizard tribe had just finished eating the prey brought back by the hunting party. They should have been returning to their nests, but instead, they all collapsed into bed and fell asleep! Even the cubs and females were snoring on the bloody piles of bones! Isn't that strange?"

Xingkong's expression turned solemn as he said to Teng, "You wait here, I'll go in and take a look!"

Teng immediately stopped him in a deep voice: "No! The giant lizards are masters at feigning death to lure the enemy!"

He flared his nostrils, sensing the danger in the wind, and calmly said, "Wait a little longer!"

Just then, a strange bone whistle pierced the night sky and rang out from the giant lizard tribe.

Teng's body suddenly tensed, his dark green pupils narrowed to slits, and he stared intently at that spot.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and Xingkong exclaimed in surprise, "It's Mo Yan and Gui? They ran away back then too?"

"Go!" Teng leaped out of the forest first, the bone knife in his hand gleaming coldly.

Since Mo Yan and Gui dared to openly trespass into the giant lizard's territory, those paralyzed giant lizards must have fallen into a trap. Although it is unknown how they did it, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity.

"Let's go!" Xingkong waved his hand, and the pterosaurs followed closely behind, rushing into the giant lizard tribe.

Mo Yan snaked around, its scarlet scales gleaming with an eerie light. It looked down at the unconscious giant lizards lying haphazardly, its tongue flicking between its fangs, emitting a chilling hiss.

Gui's eyes flashed with a cold light as he said in a low voice, "These giant lizards have never been on good terms with us, and this time they've even harmed the Cangshan tribe... They can't fight back now, are we really not going to take action?"

Mo Yan kept his eyes straight ahead and swam deeper into the tribe, saying calmly, "Return, but don't offend Hua Hua."

“It’s just a female!” Gui growled.

After saying that, he suddenly realized something, frowned and looked at Mo Yan: "You don't mean you've taken a fancy to her?"

Mo Yan paused. Him? He'd taken a fancy to a ruthless female who could mine beastmen's crystals and skin them? Ha! Unless he'd gone mad.

But when he heard Gui's words, he didn't know how to respond.

At first, he genuinely wanted to form a bond with Hua Hua, largely because she was strong, very strong. The Cangshan tribe needed a powerful leader to lead them away from Beishan and across the Triangle Sea!
"Gui, you're overthinking it," Mo Yan sneered, refuting his words.

His scarlet eyes were deep and unfathomable, continuing to linger in their depths. In truth, he harbored another, hidden, and unknown reason.

When the tribe drove away Teng, Fuying stood in front of him without hesitation. That scene always echoed in his mind. He thought, "So even females can be so willing to sacrifice their lives for their beast husbands."
"Why are you dawdling until now?" Fu Ying sat high on the boulder, a bright red wild fruit between her fingers, her long legs swinging lightly in the air.

She lazily squinted her eyes, her gaze sweeping over Mo Yan and Gui, before casually pointing her finger at the giant lizard tribe: "Look, they're all dizzy. I keep my word."

After saying that, she smiled nonchalantly with her red lips: "Bring all the people from Cangshan out, as well as that shaman from the giant lizard tribe. Once we get back to Cangshan, we can interrogate him slowly. It shouldn't be too difficult to deal with Viper Saliva."

As she spoke, she took a bite of the fruit, the juice staining the corner of her mouth red.

Mo Yan's voice was sinister and filled with murderous intent: "And the heavy armor! We must take it back with it!"

Gui frowned, glanced around, and listening to the monitor lizard's heavy snoring, asked, "There are quite a few females in the Cangshan tribe, why bring them all back at once? Can these monitor lizards sleep through the entire sunset?"

Fuying's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she was about to reply when her gaze suddenly sharpened.

She suddenly turned her head and looked in the direction where Mo Yanhe had returned.

Upon recognizing the newcomer, Fuying's eyes brightened slightly, and she spoke in a cheerful and alluring voice: "Teng—"

She leaped lightly off the boulder, her hair curving upwards, and then ran past Mo Yan without hesitation, her long hair brushing against his beastly eyes, stirring up a gentle breeze.

Mo Yan turned around and looked over, his pupils suddenly shrinking.

Fuying's long hair swayed, and she flew straight into Teng's arms like a swallow about to take flight.

Teng, who had always disliked females, was stunned into place as if struck by lightning.

Teng was indeed stunned, staring in disbelief at the slender figure rushing toward him.

A gentle smile graced her face, as if he were the only one in her eyes, so vibrant and alive.

Teng's tense back relaxed unconsciously, and his arms opened out as if by magic.

When she rushed into his arms with her warm breath and wrapped her arms around his waist, his previously low and irritable emotions quietly calmed down, and all that remained in his ears was the sound of his rapid heartbeat, whether it was his or hers, he couldn't tell.

As Mo Yan watched this scene, his scarlet eyes flickered slightly, a nameless flame of jealousy burning within them.

He didn't understand this emotion; he only felt that the scene in front of him was very jarring.

Xingkong froze, gasping for breath, staring at Fuying in shock: "Flower, flower..."

Upon hearing the word "Hua Hua," Fu Ying's smile widened, indicating that Mo Yan wasn't as big-mouthed as she seemed.

She held Teng in her arms, tiptoed slightly, looked over his shoulder at the starry sky, her eyes crinkling as she chuckled, "Starry Sky, I'll remember this thanks to you for taking Teng away."

Upon hearing this, Xingkong's ear tips twitched uncontrollably twice.

He glanced at Teng, his tone suggesting that Teng was someone extremely important to her.

Of course, that's true. Otherwise, why would she jump off the Thorn Cliff to find the Beast Crystal for Teng?
"Hua Hua, how could you..." Xing Kong was still incredulous. After all, he and Teng had witnessed her leaping off the Thorn Cliff. How could she possibly come back alive?
Suddenly, Teng moved.

Fu Ying lowered her eyes to look at the bone knife gleaming coldly at his fingertips, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

The next moment, she suddenly tilted her head, flicked her wrist, and held the object in her palm as if it were a precious jewel, presenting it to him with a smile, saying, "Ta-da—"

A beast crystal, shimmering with tiny sparks of lightning, suddenly lay in her palm. It was so bright, as if it reflected the cunning gleam in her eyes, making one's eyes sting.
