If this were a movie, probably many people would be dying.
But thankfully, this wasn’t one. Parker also wasn’t one of those ordinary human beings armed only with wisdom but no combat capabilities.
He hid Bai Qingqing behind him and instantly transformed into a leopard, before pouncing at them, exuding an even mightier aura than the scorpion beastmen.
With the cubs in her arms, Bai Qingqing retreated a few steps. In no time, that scorpion beastman was bitten to death by Parker.
Another scorpion beastman charged at Bai Qingqing, and the leopard finished him off at the speed of lightning.
As the number of scorpion beastmen rapidly reduced, none came to harass Bai Qingqing in a matter of moments. Parker rubbed the blood off his body on the sand, before transforming into a human and running to Bai Qingqing’s side.
“You didn’t get a scare, did you? I’ve wiped off the blood.” Parker comforted her as he held her in his arms. He could sense the stiffness of her body.
Bai Qingqing took in several deep breaths and replied, “It’s okay. I’m used to it.”
Bai Qingqing had thought that Parker was worried that she wasn’t as strong mentally as the females here. However, he felt heartache for her when he heard her say that she was “used to it.”
His Qingqing was used to feeling fear. Goodness, he had failed in his responsibility as a spouse.
By the time Curtis finished off the last scorpion beastman, there were plenty of broken shells and limbs strewn across the ground, with the sand moistened by the white goo and drenched to become a deep brown color.
Even the wind that blew across that patch of sand exuded a sour and rotten stench that made one feel like retching.
Curtis slithered to a clean area and rubbed off the scorpion blood on his body, before transforming into half-human form. He said, “Let’s go back.”
“Mm, mm.” Bai Qingqing turned around. What she saw made her shudder and become too scared to look again.
They quickly left the place. Yet, they didn’t discover the place where the scorpion tribe had laid an ambush. Somewhere, a pile of sand moved into the depths of the desert.
When they returned to the tiger village, many tiger beastmen detected the intense odor of the scorpion tribe. Sensing a threat, they hurriedly dashed out.
