Chapter 943: Curtis’s Poison Acts Up (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Curtis saw a hint of blame and fury in Bai Qingqing’s eyes, he couldn’t help but exert more force. Bai Qingqing was in agony from the strangling and couldn’t even breathe properly.

Unable to break free, Bai Qingqing decided to stop moving altogether.

Parker almost pounced over out of anxiety. He looked at the snake beastman’s bloodthirsty eyes and the fear toward someone stronger caused all of his hair to stand up, causing him to take a few steps back in wariness.

He had tested Curtis’s strength when he had just risen up to a four-striped beastman. If Curtis really wished to kill him, there was no way he could escape.

Winston knew that there was no way Curtis would hurt Bai Qingqing. He wasn’t anxious and said to Parker, “Let’s just take care of our own lives.”

However, An’an was still laying on the floor. She had been woken up and was right below the snake’s head.

She was now seven months old and could crawl and flip her body. She took a look at her mommy and the snake beastman above her and then flipped her body and crawled toward the big tree’s roots.

Her action caused the three clear-headed adults to stare in suspense.

Curtis wanted to kill Parker and Winston. He didn’t like An’an’s existence, either. Would he kill An’an as well?

Curtis also noticed An’an. His body arched up slightly, clearly intending on biting her.

Bai Qingqing patted hard on Curtis’s body, saying anxiously, “Curtis, don’t do this. An’an’s poison has been neutralized. Her existence won’t be a threat to me anymore.”

However, Curtis was unmoved. That instant seemed to have been slowed down countless times, and Curtis’s body was like a bow that was slowly drawn to his maximum, looking like it was going to shoot out at the next instant.

Winston was overwhelmed by rage. He bellowed and charged toward Curtis.

Roar!

The tiger’s roar was deafening and extremely threatening. It drew Curtis’s attention over.

Curtis’s gaze moved away from An’an, and he turned his head to bite toward the tiger beastman.

Winston came to an abrupt stop, made a turn, and dashed off toward another direction. When the snake’s mouth came down, it narrowly missed his body. Winston’s hair even came into contact with the snake’s fangs, instantly erupting.

Thankfully, Curtis’s body was curled around Bai Qingqing and it wasn’t convenient for him to give chase. He could only watch as the white tiger made his escape.

An’an had no idea that she had narrowly escaped death. She finally crawled her way to the big tree’s roots and sat there. However, her body was weak and she quickly, banging her head against the tree trunk.

Thankfully, the tree’s bark was smooth. An’an stopped moving after hitting it. Her body and the tree trunk formed a triangular state, and she stared at the tree bark without blinking. No one knew what she was looking at.

Bai Qingqing’s struggling heart calmed down. She knew that when An’an was in this state, she wouldn’t move for very long. She wouldn’t crawl over into the water and her life wouldn’t be in danger.

“Curtis, pull yourself together! You’re poisoned by the scorpion poison! This isn’t your usual state! Don’t be rash!” Bai Qingqing looked up and said to Curtis.

Curtis’s snake body swayed, and his upper body turned into his human form. His face, which was usually calm and gentle, was now filled with viciousness. He even felt rage when looking at her.

Bai Qingqing met his eyes and knew that no matter what she said, it wouldn’t calm him down. She felt helpless.

Curtis looked at his mate who was confined by him, and a hint of glee rose in his heart. This female was now finally his alone.

He couldn’t understand why he had permitted those two beastmen to become Snow’s mates previously. He was overwhelmed with rage every time he recalled the memories from then.

However, it wasn’t too late. After killing them, he’d take Snow away and live alone with her. That tiger beastmen village could disappear from their world forever.
