Chapter 543 What are you shaking about?

Feng Xuan froze, and without even turning his head, he fled forward.

But before he could run a few steps, he was pulled back by a huge, long tail.

Feng Xuan looked up and met a pair of crimson snake eyes.

"What are you trembling for, Priest Fengxuan?"

Feng Xuan's lips trembled uncontrollably, especially when he saw the giant python's fangs gleaming with silver light.

"I, I beg, let me go..." Before he could finish his trembling words, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Junxuan released the snake's tail with disgust and threw the person on the ground like trash.

Joey walked over and glanced at him. "Why didn't you just swallow him whole?"

Junxuan glared at him, seemingly displeased. "You think I eat everything?"

Joey raised an eyebrow. "I almost forgot, Yunji said he wanted to keep him alive and interrogate him."

After saying that, he walked up to Feng Xuan, raised his hand and slapped Feng Xuan's body several times, causing Feng Xuan to wake up in pain.

He tried to move, but found that he couldn't move his hands and feet at all; Joey had broken his hands and feet!

Joey stood up and waved to the beastmen behind him, "Drag them away and lock them up."

Two beast soldiers stepped forward and lifted Feng Xuan off the ground like a rag doll.

Inside the city, the chaos subsided, but the challenge to the new city lord continued.

The appearance of Yunji made the orcs present dare not step forward. With the city lord affirmed by the high priest, they no longer needed to question him.

No one went on stage; the challenge was over.

To prevent a repeat of the previous chaos, Jin Yao dismissed everyone.

After most of the people had left, Qiao Xixi and the others came down from the roof.

Qiao Xixi took Zhenzhen's hand and said, "Zhenzhen, since it's still early, how about we go for a walk in the streets?"

Zhenzhen suddenly frowned, looking worried, and said, "Sister Xixi, I think I just saw Qingluan. He seems to be injured. I want to go and see him."

Did Qingluan appear? She hadn't noticed her at all.

Do you know where to look for him?

Zhenzhen nodded. "I know, I know where he lives."

"Okay, then we'll take you there."

Zhenzhen shook her head and said, "No need, Sister Xixi. Qingluan's house is very close to here. Just turn around here and you'll get there. You don't need to worry about me. I can manage on my own."

Qiao Xixi wanted to persuade her again, but Zhenzhen insisted, "Sister Xixi, I, I have the courage!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xixi understood immediately. She was mustering up the courage to confess her feelings to Qingluan. It was indeed inappropriate for the two of them, as outsiders, to be present, in case they were both too shy.

"Alright, I'll watch you walk over."

Zhenzhen nodded, as if she had made up her mind, and headed towards the stone house not far ahead.

Qiao Xixi watched from the spot, and only prepared to leave with Xi Jing when she saw that Xi Jing had approached the stone house.

"Xixi."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xixi turned around and immediately saw Jin Lin walking towards her.

"Jin Lin".

After not seeing him for several days, Qiao Xixi felt that he had lost weight.

As Jin Lin approached Qiao Xixi, a gentle smile appeared in his eyes.

"You weren't hurt just now, were you?"

Josh shook her head. "It's nothing. Are you done with your work? Has your brother taken over all the affairs in the inner city?"

Jin Lin nodded. "He's been in contact with it for years, so it's not difficult for him to get started."

"Would you like to take a look at the inner city?"

Qiao Xixi didn't have anything else to do, so she figured she might as well go and take a look.

"Okay, let's go take a look." Jin Lin led the two of them through a less crowded path to the outside of the inner city.

The beast soldiers guarding the door bowed respectfully to Jin Lin and let him in.

The inner city of Tiger Beast City is much larger than that of the tribe. Although it is not as majestic as Beast King City, it still has the grandeur of Beast City.

Jin Lin led them all the way to the city lord's palace.

As soon as he entered, Qiao Xixi saw a tall figure with his back to them, talking to Yun Ji. Hearing the noise, he turned around to look.

The moment he saw Jin Lin, a smile appeared on his face.

"Big brother."

After saying that, he turned his gaze and it fell on Qiao Xixi.

"Is this the mistress of the eldest brother?" Jin Yao walked up to Qiao Xixi, his eyes becoming serious.

"I heard from my older brother that you saved him. Thank you."

After saying this, Jin Yao clasped his hands together in front of his chest and bowed to Qiao Xixi in thanks.

Qiao Xixi noticed that his eyes were clear and bright, not like they had been corrupted by Jin Wei, and she was quite curious.

"It was my luck to meet Jin Lin."

“You said the same thing as my elder brother.” Jin Yao looked at Jin Lin. “Now I finally understand why my elder brother didn’t want to stay in Tiger Beast City.”

Jin Lin's expression remained unchanged, his voice revealing indifference towards power, "This position suits you very well."

Jin Yao's smile gradually faded. "Don't worry, brother. I won't let you down. The female is waiting for you. Go on over there."

Qiao Xixi looked at Yun Ji, and Yun Ji nodded slightly to her.

When they reached the outside of the hall, Xi Jing didn't follow any further. "Xi Xi, we'll wait for you here."

"it is good."

Jin Lin took Qiao Xixi's hand and led her through the vast palace.

"Jin Lin, has Jin Yao never taken banned substances?"

Jin Lin gave a faint "hmm".

"He was the last offspring born to the female mother. To save him, the female mother ate a kind of herb that she didn't know where she found while she was pregnant."

That herb will make the fetus look very weak after being eaten.

Even when it came to banned drugs, Jinwei only wanted to use cubs with strong vitality. When he saw Jinyao, who was barely clinging to life after birth, he left without looking back.

Jin Yao was secretly raised in the city by their female mother.

When Jin Lin said these words, Qiao Xixi did not sense any emotional fluctuation in him; it was the calm that came after a great revenge.

"He was well protected by his mother."

In order to prevent Jin Wei from discovering Jin Yao's existence, his mother went to great lengths to conceal his presence.

“He has good aptitude. After he awakened his beast soul, his mother sent him to the Grand Elder and asked him to teach him.”

"Qingluan's grandfather?"

Jin Lin looked at her with some surprise, "Xixi knows about Qingluan?"

Qiao Xixi held his hand and laughed, "Yeah, I only found out these past few days." To avoid her beast husband misunderstanding, she quickly added, "Zhenzhen, you remember, right? He's the male that Zhenzhen likes. It just so happens that Zhenzhen has been coming to visit me these past few days."

Jin Lin had some recollection of the thin female. "Yes, Qingluan is the eldest grandson of the Great Elder. Jin Yao grew up with him and only returned to Tiger Beast City a few years ago."

In other words, Qingluan's return to Tiger Beast City was likely also to protect Jin Yao.

The Grand Elder was dissatisfied with Jin Wei's actions and had always hoped that Jin Yao would overthrow him when he grew up, so he had put a lot of effort into teaching him over the years.

As they talked, they unknowingly arrived at the gate of a palace.

Two female tigers were guarding outside the palace gate.

As soon as they reached the door, they heard a series of crashing sounds coming from inside.

Qiao Xixi was slightly surprised and looked at Jin Lin in astonishment.
