Chapter 59: The Eagle Beastman’s Threat

After a long while, Moore flew down from the tree and carefully followed behind them.

Since the trees were far apart in this part of the jungle, Moore could clearly see the two of them from kilometers away with his sharp eagle eyes.

The snake beastman let go of the female, then went to pick up firewood at an area that was more than ten meters away from her. Now was his chance!

Moore quietly moved closer. When the snake beastman seemingly sensed something and stopped moving, he immediately spread his wings and rushed towards Bai Qingqing.

Now, even Bai Qingqing felt uncomfortable for some unknown reason. It felt as if she was being watched.

Then, Bai Qingqing heard the sound of rushing wind behind her. She quickly turned around to see a black eagle fiercely charging towards her and instinctively stepped backward.

Cortis instantly transformed into his full beast form and rushed to place himself between Bai Qingqing and the black eagle.

After Moore was blocked, realizing that he couldn’t save the female anymore, he switched to an offensive stance and furiously pecked at the snake’s body with his hard beak.

Cortis took a sharp blow, and blood was instantly splattered everywhere. However, he still managed to wrap his snake tail around Bai Qingqing and quickly escape. Now, with a distance of tens of meters between them, the situation was stabilized.

Knowing that he was no match for a beastman with four animal stripes, Moore didn’t continue pursuing them. Instead, he shook his wings and transformed into a tall man with an abnormally muscular chest.

His body… was naturally bare as well. Although he was shorter than Cortis, his physique was more manly. His dark eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s.

Cortis immediately used his snake tail to cover Bai Qingqing’s eyes.

“…” Bai Qingqing’s mouth twitched. What was he covering her eyes for? I’m already used to seeing naked men, okay?

Bai Qingqing’s long eyelashes brushed against the snake tail as she blinked. She thought, So this eagle is a beastman too! Is he the eagle who got bitten by Cortis while trying to save me a month ago?

It was a pity. If she had known earlier, she would’ve pounced on him.

However, after seeing how nervous the snake wrapped around her was, Bai Qingqing suddenly couldn’t bear to make him upset.

“Give her to me.” Moore suddenly demanded. His voice was so calm that it sounded robotic. “Otherwise, I’ll kill her.”

“Ssss—” Cortis immediately tightened his hold on Bai Qingqing.

Bai Qingqing’s eyes widened in shock. What? The eagle man wants to kill me? Why? Is he trying to scare Cortis? That’s too fake.

Before long, Moore gave her a very convincing answer.

“The honorable reputation of an eagle cannot be damaged! I can only succeed in my mission, not fail. If the female is dead, everyone will simply think that you killed her, and it will have nothing to do with me!”

The murderous look in Cortis’ eyes was palpable as he arched his body and prepared to attack.

Anyone who threatened Xiao Bai had to die!

Bai Qingqing was dumbfounded.

“Saving her is hard, but killing her is a piece of cake.” Moore then transformed back into beast form.

Seeing that Moore was about to leave, Cortis quickly pounced on him.

Moore safely escaped from the snake’s fangs as there was some distance between them and he had fast reflexes.

Cortis’ eyes darkened with anger as he watched the eagle fly away. His eyes were so red that it seemed like blood would drip from them.

Bai Qingqing walked over and looked up at him—he was five meters tall when he straightened his body. “You’re bleeding.”

Cortis looked down at Bai Qingqing as his upper body transformed into human form. He then reached out and pulled her into a tight hug. “Don’t leave me. Nothing must happen to you.”

“Mm.” Bai Qingqing obediently nodded in Cortis’ arms.

Cortis knew that the eagle beastman meant what he said. The eagle tribe was special. According to legend, there were no females in the Sky City where they lived. Once the eagle beastmen reached adulthood, they would leave the tribe and travel the world to find a mate.

Their reputation was especially important to them. They thought that it was an important criterion to attract females. He could really kill Xiao Bai.
