Han Sui's eyes flashed, and he scolded the troublemakers, "What time is it? You still have time to argue?"

"Take good care of your beast husband and stop her from biting and attacking indiscriminately. They are both important forces in the fight against magical beasts. How can you have disagreements at such a crucial moment?"

As he spoke, he looked up at the tree again, "Xixi, I was wrong in the tribe before, and I apologize to you here!"

Xi Xi: "..." What is this guy doing? He actually apologized to her. It's like a weasel paying respects to a chicken; he's definitely up to no good!

Sure enough, he continued, "At this critical juncture of life and death, I implore you to set aside your prejudices and fight alongside us!"

I knew it! Iris was being sarcastic, but he was just giving her a ladder to climb down, basically pulling her down so they could live and die together!

No, maybe it's not about sharing life and death, maybe he's just using her as a scapegoat!

Just as she was pondering how to refuse, Tun Tun explained for her: "They could have kept quiet. Giving us a warning was a kind act, so how could we repay kindness with enmity and force them to come down? Besides, she only has two beast husbands. The stronger one is out today and hasn't returned. The other one is a good cook, but usually, those who take the unorthodox path aren't very strong in combat. Given her current situation, let alone forming an effective fighting force, they'd probably be killed on the spot the moment they met!"

This means that they were already incapable of fighting, yet they risked their lives to save us. We can't repay kindness with enmity and force them to become suicide victims!

What Tun Tun said was indeed true, and most people present knew it, especially those who had eaten Yunxi food yesterday. They all agreed, "Yeah, we can't fight. Going down there would just be suicide. She's holding her baby in her arms, why bother?"

"Han Sui, you should be kinder. This disaster was brought about by you, and you should bear the consequences yourself. Isn't it enough that you're dragging us down with you?"

"Exactly, just as you said, the most urgent thing is to kill or drive away these magical beasts, and stop with all that other nonsense!"

Despite the persuasion and criticism from the crowd, Han Sui finally gave up and the monsters were already very close to them.

Only then did Xixi get a clear look at the monster!

From above, they look like a group of lions in wolf's clothing. They are about the same size as the lions in my previous life, and their speed seems to be about the same. But with a light swipe of their sharp front claws, they can disembowel an orc!

Strength is also one of their advantages; even if they are held down by two or three orcs, they can use their strong bodies to twist and bounce people three or four meters away.

From the moment they saw the monsters to the start of the melee, there was almost no interval.

Soon, blood and flesh flew everywhere below, accompanied by constant screams.

Some orcs fought in human form, while others had already transformed into beasts and were tearing each other apart.

The ones who suffer in this situation are the marine-type beastmen. They live in the water, and transforming into beast form on land is tantamount to suicide.

Forced by circumstances, the clownfish orcs fought in human form, unable to unleash their full orcish power, and naturally became the side with the most casualties.

This was the first time Xixi had witnessed such a large-scale battle. Although she had followed the "Yun" group and seen a few battles when she was searching for Fat Orange, those were small-scale battles, with a few orcs besieging a magical beast that had almost no ability to fight back.

But when monsters gather together, they cooperate and coordinate perfectly, yet they are fearless, bloodthirsty, and ruthless. They are natural war machines, meat grinders on the battlefield, leaving corpses strewn everywhere and blood and flesh mangled in their wake.

The females fared relatively well; aside from screaming in terror, they were unharmed. However, the males who were protecting them fared much worse.

One by one, the orcs were missing limbs, their bellies ripped open on the spot. One second they were talking, the next they were being bitten off by the monsters. With their gray, lifeless eyes, they watched helplessly as the monsters chewed up their bodies piece by piece until they bled out their last drop of blood and breathed their last.

When monsters kill, they rarely kill with a single blow. They either slap a person with their claws, causing serious injury, or bite a part of the body. Once a person is injured, many monsters will swarm around them, surrounding the injured person and tearing and chewing them, leaving the injured person with no power to resist.

Even if they were lucky enough to be pulled out by those around them, as males, they couldn't stop fighting until the monsters were driven away and the females were safe...

As the battle raged, the two smaller families were ultimately unable to withstand the onslaught. When all the males fell, the females also had to face death, dying on the way to the selection of the Holy Queen in this desolate forest.

Seeing this cruel scene, Xixi could only bite her lip, hug Xida tightly in her arms, and lie on the tree, afraid that making a sound would reveal their whereabouts.

But at that moment, Xixi saw that Han Sui, who was male, did not participate in the battle. Instead, he was surrounded by layers of protection with Hua Xian and Iris.

Xixi felt contempt. Despite being male, he lacked any masculine spirit. Instead of protecting his wife, he huddled by her side, seeking protection from other males.

I wonder what the clownfish beastmen think of such a young chieftain!

Just as Xixi was about to look away, she saw Han Sui take something out and put it into the mouth of the unconscious Iris. Then Iris slowly woke up, and the three of them lowered their heads and seemed to say something.

Xi Xi originally thought it might be some kind of herb that could refresh the mind, since staying awake in this situation would make it easier to move around and escape!

However, as the three people were talking, they would occasionally glance in her direction, which made her feel a strong sense of crisis.

Before she could react, Iris suddenly went berserk, picked up the gong and struck it three times, then threw it forcefully toward Xixi's location.

Fortunately, her aim was terrible, and she failed to hit Xixi at all.

Unfortunately, one after another, the monsters looked up, seemingly searching for something in the direction of the iris.

Finally, the moment Xixi locked eyes with one of the monsters, her hair stood on end.

She knew that she had finally been exposed!

"Run!" Yunxi reacted even faster than her. The white python coiled around her and Xida, and then flew away into the distance, following the direction it spread from the treetops.

Xi Xi stared blankly at the giant white python coiled around her, feeling inexplicably bewildered. Wasn't her Yun Xi a white king cobra? A tiny little snake at that. How could he have suddenly transformed into this giant python?

But looking at the snake's head, the distinctive fleshy wings clearly indicate that this is indeed a king cobra!
