Chapter 59 - The Eagle Beastmans Threat (1/2)
After a long while, Moore flew down from the tree and carefully followed behind them.
Since the trees were far apart in this part of the jungle, Moore could clearly see the two of them from kilometers away with his sharp eagle eyes.
The snake beastman let go of the female, then went to pick up firewood at an area that was more than ten meters away from her. Now was his chance!
Moore quietly moved closer. When the snake beastman seemingly sensed something and stopped moving, he immediately spread his wings and rushed towards Bai Qingqing.
Now, even Bai Qingqing felt uncomfortable for some unknown reason. It felt as if she was being watched.
Then, Bai Qingqing heard the sound of rushing wind behind her. She quickly turned around to see a black eagle fiercely charging towards her and instinctively stepped backward.
Cortis instantly transformed into his full beast form and rushed to place himself between Bai Qingqing and the black eagle.
After Moore was blocked, realizing that he couldn’t save the female anymore, he switched to an offensive stance and furiously pecked at the snake’s body with his hard beak.
Cortis took a sharp blow, and blood was instantly splattered everywhere. However, he still managed to wrap his snake tail around Bai Qingqing and quickly escape. Now, with a distance of tens of meters between them, the situation was stabilized.
Knowing that he was no match for a beastman with four animal stripes, Moore didn’t continue pursuing them. Instead, he shook his wings and transformed into a tall man with an abnormally muscular chest.
His body… was naturally bare as well. Although he was shorter than Cortis, his physique was more manly. His dark eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s.
Cortis immediately used his snake tail to cover Bai Qingqing’s eyes.
“…” Bai Qingqing’s mouth twitched. What was he covering her eyes for? I’m already used to seeing naked men, okay?
Bai Qingqing’s long eyelashes brushed against the snake tail as she blinked. She thought, So this eagle is a beastman too! Is he the eagle who got bitten by Cortis while trying to save me a month ago?
It was a pity. If she had known earlier, she would’ve pounced on him.
However, after seeing how nervous the snake wrapped around her was, Bai Qingqing suddenly couldn’t bear to make him upset.
“Give her to me.” Moore suddenly demanded. His voice was so calm that it sounded robotic. “Otherwise, I’ll kill her.”
