The World of Beasts: Snake, I am the mother of all dragons

Mo Qi lowered his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth hidden under his hat curled up unconsciously.

"I'm sorry, Sister Luoluo, I can't show my true face. Beast City has been under strict martial law recently, and I don't want to bring you any trouble."

Moqi's voice was low and gentle, as if he was afraid of disturbing the tranquility around him.

Bai Luoluo gently waved her hand, indicating that it was okay, and said, "I understand your concerns. I think you came to me this time because you wanted it."

As she spoke, she slowly took out the wolf tooth necklace from her arms, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Moqi.

The necklace shimmered softly in the sunlight.

Mo Qi looked at the wolf tooth necklace on the table, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He reached out and gently picked up the necklace. It was warm to the touch, as if it still carried the warmth from Bai Luoluo's fingertips.

"Thank you, Sister Luoluo," Mo Qi whispered, "Back then..."

"Well, it's just returning the item to its original owner. There's no need to take it too seriously."

"But I can't forget."

Mo Qi carefully put the necklace away, raised his head again and looked at Bai Luoluo, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Okay, it's getting late. I should go back."

Seeing this, Mo Qi was speechless for a moment. Bai Luoluo's decisive action made him feel ashamed.

"Wait, Sister Luoluo."

Mo Qi took out the Jin family's deposit certificate, which he could use to go to the Jin family to withdraw the money he had deposited in advance.

Mo Qi said sincerely, "Sister Luo Luo, I, Mo Qi, will remember your kindness for the rest of my life. This is what we promised you back then."

Bai Luoluo reluctantly took it, shook it gently, and said calmly, "Then thank you."

"From now on, try your best, Moqi."

When Mo Qi heard this, he felt sad, as if he had been hit hard.

"Sister Luoluo, your tone sounds like you're going to sever all ties with me."

"Please wait for me. My brother and I will be able to take back the throne soon."

"By then... I can ensure you have a comfortable life, rich and prosperous, for the rest of your life."

Moqi paused, his eyes filled with anxiety and desire.

Bai Luoluo looked at Mo Qi, with a hint of helplessness and determination in her eyes, and slowly said: "You don't need to promise me these. I will get what I want on my own. I don't need your charity."

“…I, that’s not what I meant.”

Mo Qi looked at Bai Luoluo, his lips trembling slightly. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.

"I know, I've made it very clear, I've accepted the reward."

"And do you think I care about things like wealth and glory? Don't forget, Conis is now the Young City Lord. If I really want it, will he not give it to me?"

Bai Luoluo couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes revealing a bit of carefreeness and confidence.

Mo Qi's heart faltered when he heard this, and he quickly retorted weakly, "Sister Luoluo, I don't mean to belittle you. These are really just a small token of my gratitude to you."

He knew in his heart that his past actions did indeed make him feel guilty towards Bai Luoluo, but he sincerely hoped to do something for her.

Seeing Bai Luoluo's determined expression and turning to leave, Mo Qi became anxious and subconsciously reached out to grab Bai Luoluo's wrist.

His hands trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of anxiety and reluctance.

Then, he took out the gunpowder that Mo Nie had given him to save his life and handed it to Bai Luoluo. He said sincerely, "Sister Luoluo, I know that with your ability, you may not need this thing at all."

"But this is the only thing I can do for you. I hope you'll accept it. If you're ever in danger, it can keep you safe for a while. Of course, I just hope you can stay safe forever."

Bai Luoluo looked at the life-saving gunpowder in Moqi's hand, and a ripple appeared in her heart.

She could feel Moqi's sincerity and concern, and she sighed slightly, slowly loosened her wrist, took the pack of gunpowder, and said softly, "Thank you, Moqi."

"Take care of yourself too. You and your brother must take good care of yourself in the future."

After saying that, she put away the gunpowder, turned around and left, leaving Mo Qi standing there alone, staring at her retreating figure, unable to come back to his senses for a long time...

"Sister Luoluo..."

The love hidden deep in my heart was ruthlessly strangled in the bud before it could break out of the ground.

Moqi opened his mouth, but no sound came out. The affectionate confessions that he had rehearsed countless times in his mind now became silent sighs.

After a long while, Mo Qi slowly turned around and walked in the opposite direction with heavy steps.

Every step seemed to be stepping on one's heart, leaving deep marks.

At the same time, Mo Nie hid in a dark corner, his eyes as deep as the abyss, his deep gaze tightly locked on Bai Luoluo and Mo Qi's every move. Seeing Mo Qi's expression, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Moqi, are you coveting the wrong person?"

Mo Nie's eyes grew colder, his lips were tightly pursed, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched slightly, revealing his extreme displeasure.

The next period of time will undoubtedly be an extremely special and crisis-filled moment for Beast City.

Wilderness.

It is an area shrouded in blood and violence, and is the habitat of countless ferocious beasts.

At this time, it is the breeding period of the ferocious beasts. They need sufficient nutrients to supply them. A surging tide of ferocious beasts is about to attack the Beast City.

That night.

In the residence near the witch altar, Ling Yunxiao was suffering from painful torture.

As he grew older, the inheritance of the ferocious beast became stronger in his body.

He felt a dull pain on the top of his head, and the broken horn began to grow back again. This change made him feel terrified.

"Uh!!!"

The instinct in his body was like an awakened beast, constantly attacking his reason. Ling Yunxiao was breathing heavily, and a faint red light appeared in his gray eyes.

Ling Yunxiao endured the physical discomfort and locked himself in the cold spring in the yard, trying to use the coolness of the spring to relieve the unbearable torture.

However, the conflict of instincts was too strong, and his body trembled uncontrollably, and every tremor seemed to tear his soul apart.

The swaying light and shadow danced and flickered on his angular face. In this painful torment, Ling Yunxiao's eyes closed slightly, and his mind involuntarily recalled Bai Luoluo's training of him.

Memories flooded back like a surging tide, and he seemed to be back in that empty field again. The scorching sun was mercilessly shining on the earth, and the raised dust was flying wildly in the beams of light.

Bai Luoluo held a water whip in her hand, her posture agile and resolute. Every time she swung the whip, it was accompanied by unquestionable power and majesty.
