When Beauty Meets Beasts

Even though he was dead, Shuang Yun still found a clue.

He held out a piece of skin the color of flesh. "I tore this skin off the leader of the killers."

Huh, how disgusting!

Huanhuan quickly dodged back. "Move it away."

Shuang Yun showed Bai Di the skin.

Bai Di said, "The pattern looks familiar. It looks like magic patterns."

Magic patterns?

Sang Ye took a closer look at the human skin. "It's indeed magic patterns. They were carved bit by bit with red-hot bone needles."

Just thinking about that scene made Huanhuan's scalp tingle. It must be extremely painful to pierce the skin with a burning bone needle. Moreover, they had to carve such a complicated and complete demonic pattern. It was simply painful.

These killers were really persistent!

Huanhuan gathered her courage and leaned over to take a look. "These magic patterns are used to increase strength. They're relatively basic magic patterns."

She thought for a moment and couldn't help but say, "If they were going to suffer anyway, why didn't they tattoo a higher-level magic pattern? It's not worth it to get such an ordinary magic pattern tattooed!"

Xue Ling smiled faintly. "Although basic magic patterns are not as powerful as advanced magic patterns, they have a very obvious characteristic."

"What?"

"They're easy to spot."

Bai Di frowned. "You mean they deliberately tattooed the magic patterns and waited to be discovered?"

Huanhuan asked, "Then what are they after?"

Bai Di and Xue Ling said at the same time, "They want to frame others."

Huanhuan was stunned, then she reacted. "The mastermind wants to frame the demons?"

"Yes."

Huanhuan subconsciously looked at Sang Ye and saw that his expression was still indifferent as if he had no thoughts about this guess.

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Xue Ling said slowly, "If they were lucky enough to succeed in this assassination, these low-level demonic patterns will leave a small amount of the aura of the demons at the scene. Once this case is investigated later, others will easily point their fingers at the demons."

Bai Di pondered. "Even if the assassination failed, others will still be able to deduce from the magic patterns on these killers that they're related to the demons."

In any case, it would be the demons' fault.

Huanhuan's heart ached for the demons.

No matter what bad things they did, as long as someone died and they were looking for the murderer, the demons would always end up being the first suspect.

Sang Ye threw out another clue. "Those snake beasts look like they're from Dark Moon City."

Huanhuan quickly asked, "Are you sure?"

"They have the aura of Dark Moon City on them."

Huanhuan had heard that humans, animals, and plants had auras.

This was the first time she had heard that beast cities had auras too.

Sang Ye explained, "Due to the special geographical location of Dark Moon City and the fact that most of the beasts living in the city are snake beasts, the beasts who live in Dark Moon City all year round will be tainted with the unique aura of Dark Moon City."

Huanhuan asked curiously, "What aura is it?"

"It's wet and a little fishy. It's mixed with the smell of mud…"

Huanhuan said slowly, "Don't snake beasts have this aura?"

"It's different."

Huanhuan still didn't understand, but now was not the time to dwell on these details. She touched her chin. "If these snake beasts were really sent by Dark Moon City to assassinate us, what's the reason? Although they don't like us before, this is the first time they've sent someone to attack us in public. Are they really going to fall out with us?"

Xue Ling said casually, "They're shameless to begin with. What's stopping them from doing all this?"

Bai Di said cautiously, "The situation in the City of 10,000 Beasts is very complicated now. There might be many more assassination attempts like today in the future. Huanhuan, don't run around. You have to follow us closely, understand?"

Huanhuan nodded. "Okay!"please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"I'll make lunch. Continue chatting."

Bai Di put on his apron and went into the kitchen to work.

Xue Ling said lazily, "Huanhuan is in high demand now. No matter who it is, they want to snatch you away."

Huanhuan sat down on a chair and muttered, "Why'd they wanna snatch me? To make me a side dish?"

Shuang Yun picked her up and placed her on his lap. He lowered his head and kissed her face.

He laughed loudly. "How can there be such a cute side dish?"

Thump, thump!

There was a knock on the door.

Huanhuan asked, "Who is it?"

"It's me."

It was Shuang Jing.

Sang Ye walked over and opened the door. He saw two beasts standing outside. In addition to Shuang Jing, Leng Xiao was also here.

As soon as they entered the house, Shuang Jing sniffed. "Is your family preparing lunch?"

Huanhuan quickly retorted, "There's nothing for you!"

Shuang Jing chuckled. "It's fine. When the time comes, I'll just watch you eat. If you take a bite, I'll swallow. If I don't have any saliva to swallow, I can still chew my nails and my toenails…"

"Alright, alright!" Huanhuan was disgusted by him. "Stay for lunch too."

Shuang Jing was very happy that he got what he wanted. "You're the most understanding leader I've ever met!"

The corners of Huanhuan's mouth twitched into a dry smile. "In the future, my family won't open the door for anyone until we've eaten."

"It doesn't matter. I can still use the window."

"…"

One of the 12 divine guards had to climb through the window just to freeload. No one would believe it.

Leng Xiao clenched a fist and pressed it to his chest. He bowed to Huanhuan. "Lady Huanhuan."

Huanhuan raised her hand. "There's no need to be so polite."

Leng Xiao straightened up. "We heard that there were assassins sent to attack you in the city, so we specially rushed over to investigate."

"You're too late. The killers are all dead."

Shuang Jing took the opportunity to flatter her. "As expected of Lady Huanhuan. You're amazing. You killed more than 30 assassins!"

Huanhuan mercilessly exposed his thoughts. "Even if you flatter me, I won't keep you for dinner."

"Wuu~"

Leng Xiao asked seriously, "Do you know where those assassins came from?"

"We don't have any specific clues yet. Our initial guess is that they might be from Dark Moon City."

Dark Moon City? Leng Xiao was quite surprised. "Why would Dark Moon City try to assassinate you?"

"We have a grudge against them in the past. Perhaps they want to take revenge." At this point, Huanhuan suddenly remembered. "Didn't they say that the high priests of the three medium-sized beast cities have to attend the 10,000 Beast Ceremony? Is the high priest of the Dark Moon Temple here?"

"They just arrived last night. They're resting in the inner city."

Huanhuan smiled and asked, "Are they staying far from us?"

"It's not far. It'll only take the time of a meal to walk."

Huanhuan immediately announced, "We'll go and hang out with the high priest of the Dark Moon Temple this afternoon!"

Shuang Jing quickly asked, "Aren't you going to cook at home tonight?"

Huanhuan rolled her eyes. "Even if we're cooking at home, you won't get a share!"
