Chapter 67 Escape
The moment he touched the black stone, the innate power in Zhu Xiu's body quickly dissipated like a funnel.

Don't waste any time!

Zhu Xiu bit hard and pulled the black crystal out from the bottom of the pool.

The water in the pool began to churn wildly, as if it wanted to hold him down forever.

The King Cobra's eyes became more and more scarlet, and his innate power rushed out of his body, protecting his body and resisting the power of the whirlpool. He rushed up.

Finally, he broke free from the constraints of the pool water, and only one or two tenths of his innate power remained.

If Yin Da appeared at this time, he could easily take his life.

After hiding the black crystal, he did not stop. After turning into a small snake, he swam along the wall and swam towards Yin Da's residence.

Zhu Xiu was in a good mood, thanks to the foreign orcs for causing trouble, otherwise he would have to work harder to get this energy stone.

He has tried many times in the three years of lurking in the Wandering Beast City.

In the first two years, his innate strength was exhausted before he even swam to the bottom of the pool.

This time he was the fastest, and he still had nearly one-fifth of his innate power left when he left.

Bai Wanwan was waiting quietly in the room, praying for Chief Rong's safety.

Only when he is safe can he and his child be safe too.

There was a slight noise coming from the window. When Bai Wanwan heard it, she immediately stood up and walked over and quickly opened the window.

I thought I would see a chieftain, but I saw a king cobra coiled by the window.

But his body had obviously shrunk a lot, almost the size of a cub.

"You...you are a candle cultivator?"

She recognized his beautiful eyes, black pupils but with a faint red rim.

The little king cobra nodded at her and said, "Come on, I'll take you away."

"Take me away?"

Why not leave earlier or later? Why take her away now?

If it were two days ago, she would have followed Zhu Xiu without hesitation.

But now... Chief Rong is in the Wandering Beast City.

She followed Zhu Xiu away, and Chief Rong’s efforts were not in vain.

Zhu Xiu had already turned around, and when he saw that she hadn't moved, he immediately turned back to look at her, "If you want to escape, follow me now. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to leave."

Bai Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then quickly made a decision, "Why don't you go by yourself? I'll... wait a little longer."

"What are you waiting for?"

Zhu Xiu noticed something was wrong, turned around and stared at her with his scarlet eyes.

Bai Wanwan had no choice but to lie to him, "Zhu Xiu, thank you very much for helping me, but my beastly husband is in the city. He will come to rescue me. I'm leaving with you now, and he can't find me."

"Beast husband? The silver wolf from last time?"

Zhu Xiu snorted, "He can't save you. Even if Wandering Beast City is in chaos, he can't successfully take you away."

Even he can't do it now, but he has a backup plan.

"not him……"

After saying this, Bai Wanwan clearly felt that Zhu Xiu's shaking body stopped.

"You told me you only have one beastly husband..."

Cough...how could she forget about this.

She had just said it casually to dissuade Zhu Xiu from the idea.

"Technically speaking, he hasn't agreed to be my beastly husband yet."

If Zhu Xiu wasn't in beast form, his face would have turned pale by now. How many males had she said the same thing to herself that day?
"Are you also going to leave Wandering Beast City? Then hurry up and leave..."

She urged him on to avoid any trouble if they bumped into each other.

After saying this, suddenly a dozen stray orcs ran towards this side.

They were about to go straight into the stone house, but they were stunned when they saw the small cobra by the window.

Then he said respectfully, "Second Chief, the city lord asked us to bring the Holy Female over."

Zhu Xiu nodded, "Well, it just so happens that I'm going there, I'll take her myself."

The wandering beastman didn't have much sense, and since the city was in chaos, he immediately turned around and left. "Why aren't you coming out yet? If you continue to wait here, you won't see your beast husband, you'll only see Yin Da."

Bai Wanwan hesitated for a moment, bent down, picked up the basket, and walked out.

Let’s leave the Wandering Beast City first.

As soon as she walked out, Zhu Xiu, who had grown a circle bigger, wrapped her up.

This time, her entire body was wrapped in his snake tail.

I didn't even feel the bumps around me.

Bai Wanwan was almost shaken to sleep. The tail wrapped around her suddenly loosened, and Bai Wanwan rolled to the ground holding the basket.

"left?"

This is a bit too fast...

After Bai Wanwan finished speaking, she realized that she was surrounded by stone walls and the sound seemed to have not disappeared yet. She was clearly still in the city.

"Zhu Xiu, what are you doing?"

Zhu Xiu had already sat down next to her. "My innate power is severely depleted now. Even if I take you away, I can't protect you."

"Then why did you take me away?" Bai Wanwan gritted her teeth.

Zhu Xiu raised his eyes to look at her, "Don't worry, it's safe here. I said I would take you out, and I will definitely take you out."

"We are clearly still in the city. What if Yin Da sends someone to look for us?"

"When he finds out you're gone, the first person he'll suspect is your beast husband. He'll only look for you outside the city. There's nowhere to hide within a hundred miles of Wandering Beast City. As long as Yin Da leads people out to search, it'll be easy to find you."

"So, this is the place you prepared earlier. Yin Da, go look for it outside and come back. Then you can take me away?"

Zhu Xiu nodded, "Yes, you can stay here for a day without any worries. I will take you away when Yin Da comes back."

One day... is enough for him to fully recover.

Zhu Xiu seemed very weak, and after transforming into a human form, his entire face was pale.

He closed his eyes without saying a word.

Bai Wanwan didn't know whether he was reliable or not, so she would get up from time to time and run to the door of the stone house to look out through the gap.

This place must be quite remote. She could hear noisy sounds everywhere, but they were all very quiet.

Moreover, she stood there for a long time and didn't see a single stray orc passing by.

Time passed slowly and the sky gradually darkened.

Bai Wanwan saw that Zhu Xiu still had his eyes closed, as if he was asleep, so she didn't disturb him. She picked up the dried meat from the system space and started chewing it, while feeding the cubs at the same time.

In the first half of the night, Bai Wanwan couldn't sleep because she was thinking about things and was afraid that Yin Da would rush in with the stray orcs.

In the second half of the night, she fell into a drowsy and uneasy sleep.

But he didn't sleep for long before he was woken up by Zhu Xiu.

"Get up, take the cubs, I will take you away."

When she heard that they were leaving, Bai Wanwan immediately became alert.

It was still dark outside, and it was still gloomy. Bai Wanwan was wrapped in his long tail and slowly wandered around the edge of the Wandering Beast City.

"Who?"

Suddenly, a group of wandering orcs approached.

Bai Wanwan immediately shrank her head and hid.

"Second Chief, why are you here?"

"Well, the city is in chaos. I'll look around. You guys go over there."

The wandering orcs were caught off guard and turned around to leave as instructed, but the moment they turned around, they were quickly killed by Zhu Xiu.

Zhu Xiu walked out of the city gate with her in a swaggering manner.

After successfully passing through the city gate, Bai Wanwan was still a little bit unbelieving and turned back to look.

The desolate and desolate city is getting smaller and smaller.

Without my burden, it should be easier for Chief Rong to escape on his own, right?
