A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 363 I'll Repay You When I Grow Up
A secluded, deep forest.

Shen Tang had only taken two steps when she heard a series of clanging sounds.

She looked down at the golden bell necklace around her neck, her lips twitched violently, and she quickly took off the necklace. Just as she was about to throw it away, she suddenly remembered something and decided to put it in her spatial storage, just in case she needed it later!
Two middle-aged men with pointed faces and monkey-like features walked out of the woods not far away, looking like they had ill intentions.

The shorter man on the left exclaimed in surprise, "Big brother, look, there's a cat-like beastman here!"

"It seems to be a female."

"How can it be so ugly? Oh well, at least it's a female, I'll pack it up and take it!"

The tall, thin man pulled out a burlap sack, covered Shen Tang's head with it, and carried her away nimbly.

Shen Tang, “?”

Recently, many parts of the empire have been plunged into chaos, giving rise to a large-scale human trafficking business. People are sold as long as they are alive, whether they are cubs, females or males.

But the highest selling prices are for cubs and young females.

Shen Tang's beast form was small and looked young; no one expected her to be targeted by this group of human traffickers.

It's unknown how many people this criminal gang trafficked.

Shen Tang thought for a moment, then didn't make a move, letting them take her back to their hideout and lock her in a dark, gloomy cell.

"Woooooooo..."

The cell was filled with the sound of crying.

This small, dark room held at least twenty or thirty cubs, and judging from the sounds, there were more than just this one cell.

Most unexpectedly, Shen Tang also ran into a not-so-familiar acquaintance—the panda cub she had rescued a few days ago.

The little black and white ball of fur was much thinner than when I first saw it. Its fur was dry and dirty, and it was just skin and bones. There were also many bloody wounds all over its body, which showed how terrible it had been treated these days.

The panda cub huddled in the corner and didn't recognize Shen Tang.

The other cubs in the house weren't much better off. They lay in a dirty, messy pile of hay, most of them emaciated from hunger, covered in whip marks, and lifeless.

Some people still had the strength to cry, while others were too hungry to cry and were waiting to be taken away and sold by these human traffickers.

An older child saw Shen Tang being thrown in and said with pity, "How pitiful, another person has been arrested and brought in."

Shen Tang said, "I'm here to rescue you."

The children present were stunned, looking at her with wariness and confusion.

The panda in the corner turned its head to look at Shen Tang, its pupils dilating in shock.

Shen Tang took out a lot of food from her spatial storage. "Eat your fill, then come with me! I'll take you out!"

The moment the cubs smelled the aroma of food, their mouths watered. Even if the food was poisoned, having a full meal before they died was better than being sold by human traffickers!
The children rushed forward, stuffing food into their mouths while crying, their cheeks bulging as if it were their last meal.

After Shen Tang had eaten his fill and had the strength to run, he gathered his powerful supernatural energy and smashed the iron gate!
She ran out with the children.

They also blasted down the iron doors of the other cells, saving two or three hundred orcs.

She also wiped out the kidnapping gang in one fell swoop.

Shen Tang turned to the kidnapped beastmen and said, "You're all free now! Hurry up and go, be careful next time, don't get caught again!"

"Thank you benefactor!"

"Thank you so much for saving me!"

After seeing them off, Shen Tang went to a nearby stream, transformed into human form, and took a bath.

After she finished showering and got dressed, just as she was about to leave, she heard rustling sounds coming from the bushes.

Shen Tang caught a glimpse of a fluffy little round tail sticking out of the grass not far away, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

Shen Tang went over to take a look, and there it was – the little panda!
It covered its eyes with its two paws, and the next second, Shen Tang picked it up.
"You little rascal, were you peeping at me while I was taking a bath?"

"No, no, that's not it, I... I wanted to come and thank my sister!" came the childish voice, the little panda stammering in his anxiety.

Shen Tang raised an eyebrow. "So you can talk?" "I... I'm afraid of running into bad people, so I don't dare to speak."

The panda cub looked at the beautiful female in front of it with bright eyes and said sincerely, "Thank you, sister, for saving me. You are so beautiful. I wish I could marry you someday."

Shen Tang was amused by its words, "You're so young, do you even know what marriage is?"

The red panda didn't know either; it only knew that if a male really liked a female, he would stay with her and marry her.

It adores the Empress Sister; she's beautiful and kind, and she saved it twice.

It had heard adults say that one should repay a life-saving debt with one's own body.

But when I think about my own body...

The red panda looked sad again.

Shen Tang didn't notice its sudden dejection and asked with a smile, "How unlucky are you? It's only been a few days and you've been captured again? Why didn't you stay in the military camp? Why did you run around like that?"

The panda shook its head. "I can't stay. I... I'll bring you misfortune."

The system spoke up, "[Host, I've detected that this child's constitution is rather unusual; it's actually a body destined for misfortune.]"

"A body of misfortune?"

Yes, this kind of person is born with the potential to bring misfortune to themselves and others. The closer someone is to them, the more they will suffer. However, the Space Shop sells luck-changing talismans, though they are a bit expensive at 1000 points each, and can help break their curse.

Shen Tang felt a pang of pain upon hearing the price.

However, this little cub is really quite pitiful. It's only been a few days, and it's already been caught twice.

If its misfortune is not resolved, it will likely die young.

We've met, so it's fate that we've gotten to know each other.

Having accumulated two or three thousand points from the infrastructure tasks, Shen Tang spent a fortune to buy a luck-changing talisman from her spatial storage and secretly affixed it to the little panda.

The talisman instantly transformed into a stream of light and rushed into its body.

The panda cub felt a sudden lightness in its body, as if some kind of constraint had disappeared, and thought it was just an illusion.

Shen Tang originally wanted to take the red panda back to the capital, but unexpectedly, it got lost again on the way.

It must have gotten lost on its own this time.

Before it left, it left a letter for Shen Tang.

Thank you, sister. I will definitely repay you when I grow up!

Shen Tang sighed, "This brat really doesn't learn his lesson."

The system is worried about implicating you.

"Well, I've already given it the lucky charm, so I'll just wish it good health and a smooth life from now on."

[Host, shall we return to the capital now?]

"Ah."

……

Jialan has been busy with factory matters these days. When she got home late at night, she was so tired that she lay down on the bed and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

When Jialan woke up the next morning, she felt a warm sensation in her arms. Looking down, she saw a small bulge under the blanket.

Once it's lifted...

A fluffy ball.

Jialan held her breath, her pupils dilated.
"Tang, Tangtang?!"

　Let me outline this. Goodnight.
