After knocking down five beastly men, the vicious female escaped

Chapter 197 Death
Wen Shu hugged the cub tightly, her arm was pulled hard, and her shoulder hit a cold, hard wall of flesh.

A chilling aura, tinged with the scent of blood, drew near, hovering beside her neck. A deep, familiar voice, restraining its harshness, spoke gently: "The cub looks a lot like you..."

Upon hearing the voice of the person who had entered, Wen Shu's guard relaxed slightly. Then she heard Rach murmur, "I will be good to them."

what?
These sudden words left Wen Shu a little stunned. She struggled to free her arms but couldn't, and looked up at Lach.

Half of his face was hidden in darkness, and beads of blood slid down his pale lips, winding down his sharp jaw, making his already fierce and handsome face even more menacing.

Those deep blue eyes, gazing at me quietly, were like a deep, calm sea, silently rippling with a captivating tenderness.

In that instant, Wen Shu seemed to see that clumsy, almost foolish guy again...

She looked away and grasped Rah's strong arm to check his injuries, only to remember that her powers had not yet recovered.

She awkwardly pushed his hand away. "What are you doing here?"

Noticing her movement, Rah's straight lips curled into a smile, and his eyes were fixed on Wen Shu, his wound no longer hurting!
Lanze's idea worked! He should have made a stab in a conspicuous spot...

“I originally planned to come find you after I finished dealing with the Blackthorn Valley matter.”

His long, snow-white eyelashes drooped, as if he were somewhat exhausted. He braced his hands against the wall. "Kranze saw Lucius and the others. I was afraid they would harm you, so I followed them."

Seeing his appearance, Wen Shu looked down and indeed saw that there was a tear in his black robe at the waist.

On his exposed, taut abdominal muscles, there were two deep, fresh wounds that revealed the bone, from which crimson blood was gushing out.

Wen Shu frowned slightly. Before she could speak, she felt a burning gaze fall on the top of her head, so intense it was frightening.

"Go back to the valley. My powers are malfunctioning, and I can't heal you..."

She pursed her lips, preparing to return to her room, but before she could turn around, Rach's tall figure fell straight to the ground.

Wen Shu instinctively tried to help him up, but couldn't free her hands at all. Just then, a noisy fighting sounded outside the castle.

Immediately afterwards, a cold, eerie figure flew in from the end of the corridor like a ghost.

She took a few steps back warily, when a cold, menacing hand gripped her shoulder tightly!

Lucius, disheveled and hunched over, his white robe stained with purple blood and mud, stared at her in disbelief in his bloodshot eyes. "Wen Shu... it really is you."

Wen Shu glanced at him coldly, hugged the cub tightly, and kicked him hard in the wound on his side.

Lucius neither dodged nor evaded, enduring the blow head-on.

The wound reopened, and a strong smell of blood instantly spread.

He was in so much pain that cold sweat beaded on his forehead. He gripped his hand even tighter, his gaze sweeping over Wen Shu's indifferent face before settling on the cub in her arms. Suddenly, he let out a self-deprecating chuckle.

"Is it true that even if I died in front of you, you wouldn't feel anything?"

Wen Shu frowned at his excited reaction, unable to understand where he got the idea that she would soften her heart towards him.

She lowered her eyebrows, too lazy to say a word to him, turned around and broke free from his grasp, taking a few steps back while holding the cubs.

Seeing the disgust in her eyes, Lucius felt a sharp pain in his heart, and a few tears slid down his cheeks. "Ah Shu, I really regret it! Please forgive me, okay?"

"During the time you disappeared, I couldn't sleep or eat properly, and I regretted it every day! I swear, I will protect you with my life..."

Seeing his face covered in tears and him approaching with outstretched arms, Wen Shu frowned deeply. "What do you mean by forgiveness?"

"Lucius, I have absolutely no relationship with you, and I've never had any feelings for you whatsoever. Can you please stop being so disgusting?"

Every word she spoke was the truth, but to the irrational Lucius, it was like sharp thorns piercing his heart, leaving it a bloody mess.

No feelings?

nausea?

Lucius clenched his fists tightly, the pain in his heart instantly replaced by intense anger. In a moment, his bloodshot eyes turned fierce, and purple veins bulged on his forehead.

Ludi was right. He was indeed timid and too soft-hearted towards females!

"Wen Shu..."

He lifted his eyelids, his red eyes filled with ruthlessness, and used his wind-based supernatural ability to its fullest extent, transforming it into a white beam that shot straight out. A cold wind rushed towards him, and Wen Shu instinctively dodged. At the same time, the "unconscious" Rach suddenly stood up and ruthlessly slashed at Lucius.

The sound of flesh being torn apart echoed in the corridor.

However, even with his arm broken, Lucius still refused to stop, and his target was not Wen Shu at all, but the cub in her arms!

A sharp cry drew an arc in the air.

Realizing his intention, Wen Shu gripped the swaddling clothes tightly, but all she could find in her palm was a torn piece of cloth. Her breath caught in her throat, and her eyes bulged painfully. "Lucius, what are you doing!"

At the end of the corridor, Lucius held two cubs, dangling from a second-floor window, a morbid smile spreading across his blood-splattered face.

"Ah Shu, don't worry, we'll have more cubs."

As soon as he finished speaking, he let go without hesitation, and the two infants, no bigger than his forearms, fell straight into the backyard!

"Rah! Save them!"

Wen Shu's heart stopped beating. She lunged toward the window, and Rah, who was behind her, heard the sound and immediately disappeared from the spot.

Her elbow slammed into the wall, tearing a layer of flesh. Wen Shu, panicked and helpless, clung to the window frame.

Under the bright moonlight, the gray figure clumsily held the cubs, looking as if afraid of crushing them, and his tense body trembled as he relaxed a little.

When his arm was gripped tightly, his hands and feet trembled violently, and his clear eyes were filled with intense killing intent.

“Lucius…”

Wen Shu raised her eyes fiercely, her movements so fast they became blurry, aiming straight for Lucius's heart!

Her attack was sudden, and Lucius instinctively dodged, but he did not expect that her strength was now unpredictable and many times stronger than before.

The cold claws tore open his chest, severing all the sticky flesh and blood, and mercilessly pierced his heart and spine!
Purple blood droplets splattered down the tip of a snow-white claw that had pierced through the back.

Lucius froze abruptly, glancing down at the slender, white hand stained with blood on his chest.

"temperature……"

He murmured through the pain as the claw that had pierced his heart was suddenly pulled out, and blood gushed out instantly.

A strong smell of blood rose up his throat, and Lucius coughed up a mouthful of blood, staggering as he fell to the ground.

"Wen Shu..."

He clutched his chest tightly, looked up at Wen Shu, and through his increasingly blurred vision, saw her eyes filled with murderous intent.

In the midst of my confused mind, a pair of clear and bright eyes suddenly appeared.

is her……

A bottomless river, hair soaked through.

She pulled him up, and under the bright moonlight, she embraced him, her eyes crinkling as she softly comforted him, "Don't be afraid, no one will hurt you again."

……

Wen Shu squatted down and checked Lucius's breath, but her trouser leg was gently tugged. She frowned and looked down, only to see a trace of longing flash in his unfocused eyes.

He was still muttering to himself.

"orchid…"

Wen Shu stood up and broke free. When she lowered her eyes again, Lucius's arm was already stiff and hanging down, and his red eyes were also covered with a layer of gloom.

Having escaped the fighting outside the castle, Musil rushed up to the second floor, saw the corpse lying in a pool of blood, and held Wen Shu tightly in his arms.

Her heart was pounding rapidly beside her ear, and her cold limbs warmed up a little in his arms.

At that moment, Rach, holding the cub, appeared out of nowhere.

She looked up at him, but before she could speak, Musil's aura suddenly darkened, and his black snake tail lashed out in an attack stance. "Rach? What do you want to do? Give the cub back!"
