Beauty and the Beasts

Bai Qingqing heaved a big sigh of relief and quickly ran over.

“Parker!”

Bai Qingqing shouted and wiped off the sweat on his nose.

Parker nudged against her waist intimately with his armor on. The joints of the armor were very sharp as well. If it wasn’t because she was wearing snakeskin, her skin would have been scratched.

Bai Qingqing shuddered when she saw the sharp glow and backed off a few steps.

“Hey, be careful of the iron pieces you’re wearing.”

Parker paused and thought of how he had specially sharpened the iron pieces so that he could better attack his enemies. He immediately looked toward her body anxiously.

Seeing that Bai Qingqing was unscathed, Parker eventually let out a heavy exhale.

He was very fatigued and lay on the ground like a dead leopard.

Bai Qingqing then looked at the other three leopards. They staggered back to their feet, covered in wounds.

The one bitten by Parker on the back had his waist covered in blood.

However, none of their lives were in danger. Given the males’ physique, they’d recover in a few days.

“Are you guys alright?” Bai Qingqing asked.

She felt a little angry at them, but seeing their injuries and thinking of how they put their lives on the line, she felt a little guilty.

What Parker had done back then was right. Back then, it wasn’t a life or death battle.

One of the leopards changed into his human form and walked up to her.

Bai Qingqing immediately lowered her head, and her gaze landed on An’an.

The young two-striped beastman who bore a great resemblance to Parker took a long look at Bai Qingqing, opened his mouth, then spat out bloody saliva.

“Cough cough… We’ll abide by the rules and won’t bother you anymore in the future.”

Hmm?

Bai Qingqing’s eyes lit up, and she looked up in elation. “It’s great that you guys have thought things through!”

Parker, laying on the ground, relaxed as if a heavy burden had been taken off him.

Seeing Bai Qingqing’s happy smiling face, the young man let out a bitter laugh and said, “It seems that we’ve troubled you.”

Bai Qingqing laughed sheepishly and was about to say something to ease the awkwardness when the young man spoke up again.

“We’re brothers, and our feelings will affect each other. Parker loves you a lot, and his feelings for you are too intense. That’s why we lost control.”

Bai Qingqing was struck by understanding. She took a look at Parker by her feet, feeling sweet inside.

“But you don’t have to worry. Once we become mates with someone, this connection will break off,” the young man said with a hint of blush on his face.

“There are many females in the village. We should be able to become mates with someone very quickly.”

“That’s good.” Bai Qingqing smiled and said, “After you guys find your mates, we can get together as relatives.”

“Hmmm?” The young man wore a baffled expression.

The three leopards laying on the ground all looked up toward her, wearing the same confused expression.

Bai Qingqing was instantly struck by how adorable they looked. They were like how the little leopards were. As expected of blood-related brothers.

“It means that we can get together to eat when there are happy events.”

“Okay!”

“Roar!”

The young man and the other two leopards replied in unison.

Parker rested for a while. When he recovered his energy, he crawled up and glared at the young man warily.

“Howl!” [Quickly change back to your leopard form!]

The young man immediately bent over and changed back to his leopard form.

The three leopards licked each other’s wound and backed off to the side.

Parker nudged Bai Qingqing out with his head, then ran to the center of the circle, letting out a howl that was filled with battle intent.

There was no need for any translation. All the male beastmen understood his challenge.

A few three-striped beastmen entered the battlefield. Another round of battle started.
