Chapter 1130: Behemoth Invading

“This… This was an accident. The weather cleared up yesterday and I wanted to go see the Chinese wisteria flowers. I brought the leopard cubs along with me, but they ended up licking a beehive and were stung.”

Bai Qingqing lowered her head to conceal the uncontrollable smile on her face, explaining to Parker while looking like a submissive wife admitting her mistake.

Parker didn’t mind this, he just found it embarrassing. If he was the one in their shoes, he’d definitely hide like what the leopard cubs were doing.

Seeing how reproachful his mate was, Parker consoled her instead. “It’s fine. They’re at fault for not being able to run fast enough.”

Bai Qingqing immediately looked up and glared at him. “Who are you to say that? Back then, didn’t your head get stung all over as well?”

As a mother, of course, she’d be defensive of her children. Bai Qingqing felt that the leopard cubs were already very smart and capable. They had thrown away at least 99% of the bees behind them.

If she was in their shoes… Bai Qingqing silent multiplied the sores on Third’s body by 100. There was no need to calculate, she’d probably be stung to death on the spot.

Parker choked. Being chided in front of other males made him embarrassed, and he felt extremely regretful over his earlier words.

Winston also saw the leopard cubs’ condition and was very worried. After putting on an animal skin skirt, he squatted down next to the grass pile and picked up one of the cubs.

The one who was picked up was Third, who was stung the worst. His condition was a lot better than the day before, but as he was still in the recovery phase, his wounds looked even scarier than at the beginning. It was bright red yesterday, with a hint of blood in the center. But today, the bumps had formed scabs, becoming densely packed black spots.

Winston almost threw the leopard cub away. Even a male like him wasn’t able to stand looking at them. He didn’t dare to imagine how a female would react upon seeing this.

“Will it have any impact on them in the future?” Winston’s brows furrowed tightly as he asked. If they stayed like this forever, it’d be a lot worse than the scar left on his face. It’d probably be very hard for them to form spousal relationships.

Bai Qingqing took a look at Parker and said, “Don’t worry, Parker…”

Under Parker’s aggrieved gaze, Bai Qingqing forcibly swallowed the rest of her words. She paused before saying, “Parker will take care of them and see that they recover.”

“Have they been seen by a doctor?” Winston was still worried.

Bai Qingqing nodded. “Harvey came by to give them a check-up. They’ve only been given treatment because they have been stung too much.”

Winston listened attentively. The leopard cub he was holding felt too embarrassed to be seen by others and felt as if he had learned the Thousand Catty Crush skill1. His body seemed heavier than usual for some reason.

Winston’s heart ached for him, and he dug a hole in the grass pile, burying Third properly.

The three adults looked at the grass pile that didn’t move in the slightest. If it wasn’t because they had seen three leopard cubs darting inside, they wouldn’t have guessed that the cubs were hidden inside.

Ssss~

Curtis entered very quickly, placing one hand on the stone wall and sensing the fine tremors coming from the ground. His gaze landed on Winston and he said solemnly, “The behemoths are heading toward the village?”

He sensed the tremors coming from the ground, but wasn’t certain of the direction the behemoths were headed toward them.

Winston’s countenance changed and he immediately lay on the ground, placing his ear to the floor, and listened for a while. He said very quickly, “It seems that they have smelled the scent of beastmen now that the rain has stopped. They must be headed toward us.”

“We mustn’t let the behemoths discover this place!” Parker bellowed anxiously and wanted to head out immediately. “We’ll go stop the behemoths!”

The behemoths’ numbers were massive. If they were to take them face-on, even the City of Beastmen would be dealt great casualties despite their strength.

The atmosphere that had previously cleared up because the weather had opened instantly became suppressed.

Muir had the dullest senses. He only found out about the direction the behemoths were moving in after hearing their conversation. He immediately said, “I’ll go too!”
