Everyone's gaze slowly shifted from Hua Niang, who had suddenly collapsed, to Xi Xi, who was standing to the side.

At this moment, Xixi still had an angry expression on her face, and her face was even flushed red with anger, but her eyes were full of astonishment, as if she was surprised by the situation in front of her.

Then, she looked at her hands, touched her face, gently rubbed her temples, and finally looked back at Hua Niang.

"Tell me, did you know about today's events beforehand?" she asked.

"No, I didn't know, otherwise I wouldn't have thought about it for so long, I really..."

"Alright, I understand!" Xixi interrupted the other person's explanation. She didn't care about those clichés and immediately asked her second question, "If today's events were related to your beastly husband, how would you handle it?"

“How could that be? They are all top-notch orcs, they would never…” Hua Niang wanted to explain further, but Xi Xi was unwilling to listen.

He interrupted again, saying, "Just answer me: if this is related to your beastly husband, how will you deal with it?"

"I...I..." she stammered for a while. Under the increasing dizziness and coercion, she once again chose to save herself and abandon others. But this time, the others were her beloved beastmen.

"I will abandon them completely!" she shouted, almost with all her might.

"Even if they are abandoned, will they be plagued by illness and die of exhaustion?" Xixi pressed.

This time, Hua Niang didn't hesitate and answered decisively, "Yes!"

A hint of mockery flashed in Xixi's eyes. See? Whenever there's a conflict of interest, Hua Niang will always choose the one that's more beneficial to herself.

The first time he abandoned her, the second time he abandoned her beastly husband!

Having received the answer, Xixi did not press Hua Niang further, nor did she intend to confront Tao Ju and the others directly. Instead, she looked at Qian Lao and Fang Lao, who had come to join the commotion, and asked, "Gentlemen, could you tell me who granted you permission to come to the third floor so easily?"

"Since you already know the answer, why ask this question?" It was the old man who said this. Sometime later, he had been carried down by the two men and was now resting his chin on his hand, looking at the little female in front of him.

Although the Beast World Continent is female-dominated and male-subordinate, the male with stronger combat power is always more noble, just like him!

In his view, although females are noble, they can only depend on males for survival. They rely on males to hunt for food, males to make their clothes, and males to protect them when they go out. They always look delicate and weak, and even a gust of wind can make them sick!

But the little female in front of them, though extremely thin, exuded an energy that was in no way inferior to that of the males!

How could this not excite him?

Originally, I only intended to keep it as a private possession and use it when I needed to soothe my mental energy.

But now, he has actually developed a serious idea of ​​being paired with a wife. If she were his wife, his life would be much richer!

Of course, his wife can only have one beastly husband; if she dares to take other wives...

Hmph, even if it costs him his life, he will kill every male who dares to approach!

Xixi was unaware of Fang Lao's thoughts. At this moment, she stubbornly stared at him and asked, word by word, "Please tell me, who gave you permission to come to the third floor so easily!"

Seeing that the two were trying to evade the issue, she explained, "Judging a case requires evidence, and at this moment, the only evidence we can provide is your testimony! Please, this is important not only to me, but also to Hua Niang and to them! Please tell the truth!"

"It was the 'Tao Ju' and number 53. One of them reported the news, and the other cleared the area. They cooperated quite well. When this group of males came up, they really had no obstacles. Not to mention the other beastmen of the Flower Maiden, even the protective array on the third floor did not react!" Old Fang finally gave in.

The moment he finished speaking, Old Qian stamped his foot angrily and cursed, "Aren't you always so stubborn and unwilling to talk the more you ask? Why did you confess so quickly this time?"

He was still thinking that after Fang Lao and Xi Xi had gone through a few rounds of wrangling, he would step in as a peacemaker and reveal the whole truth.

At that time, Xixi will definitely resent the old man from the textile factory and be grateful to him. Wouldn't it be more natural to lure this little female back then?

But who would have thought that this guy, who had been stubborn for most of his life, would actually give in this time!

quick! too fast!

Xixi completely ignored their ulterior motives, only coldly glancing at Hua Niang, who was still lying on the ground, and asked, "You know what to do now, right?"

Hua Niang took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, saying, "Don't worry, I'll abandon them right now!"

But then she rolled up her sleeves, revealing a deer-like animal print on her forearm. In the blink of an eye, the print vanished.

"Is it okay now?" she asked dejectedly, her voice devoid of vitality, as if she had aged ten years in an instant!

"This is number 53, right? And there's someone who's 'pecking at the buttocks'? I remember, his beast form was a hyena, wasn't it?" Xixi reminded him.

Hua Niang looked intently at Xi Xi, "Do you really have to be so ruthless? You know, once a male is abandoned by his wife, his body quickly deteriorates. At most, he'll die within six months; at least, within three to five days! He was, after all, my first beastly husband. He pulled me out of the abyss of hell. Couldn't you consider..."

"Leave the emotional words to the parties involved; as for me, I don't need them!" Xixi's voice was devoid of any emotion.

When asked how to deal with it, there are many ways to do so. It could be physical punishment, such as a whipping, or mental punishment, such as public humiliation. But Hua Niang chose the cruelest one!

All of this was her own choice!

Having already made the choice, pleading with her now would only shift the blame onto her!

Moreover, abandoning No. 53 while favoring Taoju, isn't that another option?

Finally, Hua Niang stopped struggling, pulled open her collar to reveal the hyena mark on her right collarbone, and reached out to touch it one last time. As she touched it, the mark gradually disappeared, just like the deer mark on number 53.

She lay half-prone on the ground, wailing in agony.

"Alright, I've been waiting for you to settle your old scores, and now that's settled, it's time to settle our own!"

The one who said this was Old Liao. Although he was also considered an unrelated person in Xixikou, he did not think so. He stubbornly waited here and even arranged a stone bench for himself.

During this time, Elder Qian and Elder Fang tried to scare him away several times, but they couldn't get rid of him.

Seeing that this person not only lingered here but also spoke first, Elder Qian and Elder Fang felt a sense of unease and immediately urged him to leave.
