Chapter 962 - Precarious Night (3) (2/2)

When he got up to leave, his gaze leaving his mate’s body, not a hint of gentleness was left on him. The viciousness he emitted became even more intense, and even Mitchell couldn’t help but take a step back.

Only now was Mitchell certain what his father’s goal was. His back bent slightly, and he felt extremely helpless.

“It seems like I’ll have to change targets,” Mitchell said helplessly. After all, he was a rootless beast without any emotions or desires. He was born to be cold and aloof.

However, when he said this, Mitchell felt grief right from the depths of his soul. Although his feelings for Bai Qingqing weren’t deep, it was the only of its kind in his life as a beastman.

The rarer something was, the harder it was for one to let go.

The black crystal trembled slightly, and a sharp voice entered Mitchell’s brain, “No! Bai Qingqing will be a goner if your father catches her! He wants to use Bai Qingqing’s body to hold your mother’s soul! That won’t do!”

Mitchell frowned at his sharp and piercing voice and started feeling irritated. “Then, what do you want me to do?”

The black crystal’s energy waves turned weak from helplessness.

Mitchell punched the wall, and a large patch of ice fell off. Turning his head to throw a glance at his mother who was emitting a stench, Mitchell left the ice house.

Above the sand, chaos ensued. Winston and Parker had wrapped animal skin over their limbs, allowing them to battle on the sand filled with wild scorpions.

They mustn’t stand on one spot for too long, either. Otherwise, the scorpions would climb up all over them.

Curtis and Muir were in a deadlock. Curtis’s massive body kept on slapping and twisting on this piece of sandy land, causing the scorpion beastmen and wild scorpions to be unable to get close. This gave Muir a layer of protection.

Alva and Bai Qingqing flew in the air, remaining safe and unscathed.
