Pampered Beasts: Beautiful Actress, Many Children, Many Blessings

Chapter 312 There's something I need your help with, Young City Lord.

Stop! Absolutely stop!

"Cough... I can't eat anymore, I really can't eat anymore!" Accompanied by Xixi's mournful cry, Jun Song reluctantly withdrew his hand and weakly stated, "Uh... no, I was just looking, yes, just looking." Judging from the traces left in the kitchen, he could deduce what dishes the young city lord had made, what ingredients he had used, how he had cooked them, and so on. He prided himself on his keen observation and learning abilities; if he were given the chance, he could definitely replicate the dishes exactly!

Of course, when the young city lord and Yunxi are around, it's not his turn to take action, but there are always times when they are not around, and that's when he shines!

Cooking for females is a mandatory course for every male!

"There's something I might need your help with, Young City Lord!" Sikong Hongyu suddenly spoke in a formal tone at this delicate moment of open and covert struggle.

The young city lord immediately stood up straight. Long before becoming Xixi's beast husband, he had already investigated each beast husband thoroughly. This one was his wife's first beast husband, and also his elder brother, at least in name.

Moreover, he was born in the Central Continent and was the only grandson of the Yanshan Sacrifice of the Central Continent. This status was far beyond what a young city lord of Yunyao City could compare to!

Since he had actually offered to help, this was definitely no small matter. His heart jumped into his throat, waiting for the other party to unleash his ultimate move.

"Actually, it wasn't a big deal. It's just that the Jun Song brothers killed three people." From the very beginning, it was a bombshell.

The young city lord opened and closed his mouth, raised and lowered his fingers, and didn't know what to say for a long time.

Officially, he had to fulfill his duty. He openly killed three people in Yunyao City, so the death penalty was beyond question!

Since his elder brother had spoken frankly, it was a statement of his position. Although Jun Song was not yet Xi Xi's beast husband, it was a done deal. He had just gotten there early and gotten ahead of the curve.

On a personal level, how could he send his sworn brother to the execution ground? That would make him a target of gossip and criticism!

It's contradictory both in terms of public and private interests; whatever he does is wrong.

The key point is that, despite being the young city lord of Yunyao City, he doesn't designate the laws, and he doesn't have the final say on all matters, big and small, within the city. There are so many eyes watching.

If the guards discover the body and, after a series of investigations, confirm that Jun Song is the real murderer, then his stain of harboring the murderer will be impossible to clear. The higher his prestige was before, the harder he will fall in the future!

Sikong Hongyu, seemingly oblivious to his embarrassment, continued counting on his fingers, "I handled the murder scene, making it look like they were killing each other."

The young city lord clearly did not expect that his elder brother not only knew about the matter, but also participated in it, and not only participated, but also faked the crime scene!

Does he even know that any crime scene can be reconstructed? The guards of Yunyao City are definitely not just sitting idly by!

Unfortunately, before he could react, Yin You, who had been silent all along, suddenly took out a net bag and spread it out in front of everyone. "Well, I also have something I need to trouble the young city lord for!"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Yin You.

Sikong Hongyu and the others were genuinely unaware and even more puzzled. This kid was always by his wife's side, so what could possibly require the young city lord's help?

However, in the eyes of the young city lord, with Sikong Hongyu and Junsong setting an example, even if Yinyou's presence is not high, what is being revealed now is definitely a shocking piece of gossip!

He glanced instinctively at the net bag he was holding out of his hand, his intuition telling him that this thing in front of him was definitely unusual!

"We've captured an orc, who appears to be female. Should we kill her or release her? Young City Lord, please make a decision."

The young city lord's eyes widened like copper bells. He had considered a thousand possibilities, but he never expected that this fellow would dare to capture a female alive and put her in a net!

He shakily reached out and took the unconscious female from the net, but after only one glance, he panicked and threw it back, shouting, "Put it away! Put it away quickly! Don't let her wake up!"

His tongue was trembling, and after pointing at Yin You for a long time, he finally managed to choke out the next sentence, "Do you even know who she is?"

Yin You shook his head blankly. "When Xi Xi was talking to you in the hallway, she was crouching around the corner in animal form. I felt that she must have ill intentions, so I caught her and brought her back."

Yin You explained it very simply, but Xi Xi understood it perfectly and said approvingly, "Well done, that's how it should be!"

That one phrase, "That's how it should be," made the young city lord swallow back the words he was about to say.

As expected, like master, like beastly husband; they're all birds of a feather!

Poor thing, he's on a pirate ship and can't get off... Oh well, he doesn't even want to get off. He'll risk his life to take responsibility for these things!

"She is Bai Qianqian, the only daughter of Master Bai. The leaders of the arena have always been female, and Bai Qianqian is the next leader of the arena!" After regaining his composure, he finally began to explain.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this introduction, Xixi and the others showed no fear, but rather a hint of joy.

"If we use Bai Qianqian as bait, can we lure Master Bai out and kill him as well?" This was the first time Xi Xi had revealed her killing intent towards Master Bai in front of the young city lord. Before, she had only said that she wanted to inquire about his whereabouts.

But clearly, the young city lord had already guessed it, and showed little surprise. He shook his head and said, "Master Bai is extremely shrewd. She will only send Bai Qianqian's beastman to pick her up. There's no way she'll leave the arena. Moreover, this will definitely anger her, and she'll use this to ask the Central Continent for help! At that point, things will get really troublesome!"

"So?" Xixi looked at Kunhai in confusion. If they couldn't use this as bait, then keeping it in their hands would be a hot potato. After all, they couldn't just kill the person directly.

"Kill!" A single word, clean and swift. Then he looked at Yin You, "I suspect that when you captured Bai Qianqian, she couldn't send a distress signal, and perhaps no one even noticed!" Otherwise, with Master Bai's influence, how could they have stayed here so safely? They would probably have been surrounded three layers deep by now!

"Keeping her locked in the basement of the city lord's mansion, they'll never imagine that once things calm down, they'll kill her!" In short, she must never see the sun again, and she must never see Master Bai again!

"Is it safe to lock them in the basement? Won't the guards find out?" Xixi had only been to the city lord's mansion once, and she had never set foot in the basement.

This question was asked out of concern, not distrust. However, the young city lord was unexpectedly silent upon hearing it, and after a long while, he said, "Besides me, Elder Qian, the guard captain also has a key to the basement."
