Chapter 687 - Caught a Bunch of Hostages (2/2)
Curtis said indifferently, “Do as he says. As for this bunch of male beastmen…”
The male beastmen collectively fell silent. Although they were unafraid of death, they didn’t wish to be apart from their beloved females. Even if they lived a life worse than death, they still wanted to continue watching over their mates.
Therefore, they showed a willingness to compromise.
“Drag them back together.”
The group of snakes immediately started moving. Parker said, “Hey, watch over them. I’ll be going back first.”
Curtis didn’t pay him any heed. Parker ran back at rapid speed and was about to leave the group of snakes when a snake’s tail suddenly tripped him.
He climbed up and continued running, but was tripped again.
“Growl!” Parker turned and glared at Curtis furiously.
Curtis also looked at him. “Ssss—”
Parker felt pain all over and instantly cowered.
Under Curtis’s deliberate intention, the speed at which they returned was immensely slowed. However, they were still considerate in taking care of the females.

In the tiger village, Bai Qingqing and Winston had been alone for a day and had gotten closer and more pleasant.
Five days passed by in the blink of an eye.
Bai Qingqing would let Winston touch her stomach every day. His hand seemed to have a magical touch, and An’an moved a few times.
It was just that, for some reason, either An’an stopped wanting to accept this or Winston’s touch no longer had any effect, the movements that would occur a few times each day stopped.
Bai Qingqing felt anxious and immediately got Winston to look for Harvey.
“An’an stopped moving since yesterday. I don’t know why.” Bai Qinqing looked at Harvey pleadingly.
Winston sat down next to her, pulling her into his arms to console her.
Hearing that, Harvey’s brows furrowed tightly together, and he said, “Hasn’t it been stable all along? This is strange.”
The fetal movement hadn’t been much, to begin with, but now she wasn’t moving at all. Could it be that… the fetus had died?
