Chapter 158 - 156: But They Couldn’t Mistake That Aura

Chapter 158: Chapter 156: But They Couldn’t Mistake That Aura

The speed was incredible; in the blink of an eye, it was about to charge into the crowd.

Mu Silin jolted. ’Why does this Bear Beast look so familiar?’

’A Beastman from the Ancient Bear Family?’

Gu Fangqi exclaimed:

"It’s a high-level male who’s lost control of his spiritual power!"

Lan Cangyue realized it too.

"He’s an A-level male!"

Why would a high-level Beastman be on Wilderness Mountain?

The words had barely been spoken when the frenzied brown bear male pounced on the completely naked Snake Clan female.

Screams instantly erupted from the crowd.

Huang Ziyue, of course, recognized the male’s identity as well. His eyes narrowed.

"Go restrain him."

Wu Huo replied, "Yes."

Mu Silin’s and Ye Lüqi’s men also charged forward instantly.

Standing beside the others, Shen Yue found the features of the Bear Clan Beastman strangely familiar.

By this point, the Bear Clan Beastman had completely lost his sanity.

A powerful energy radiated from his body, and in the blink of an eye, he sent Beastmen who couldn’t escape in time flying.

The Snake Clan female, who moments before had been passionately entangled with a gray wolf male, was suddenly tackled and pinned to the ground by the Bear Beastman.

Just as the Bear Beastman was about to wrap his arms around the female’s waist and grope her to unleash his carnal desires...

Wu Huo charged forward. Amidst the female’s screams, he sent the Bear Beastman stumbling back several steps with a single kick.

Ye Lüqi’s and Mu Silin’s men were there in an instant, surrounding the Bear Beastman.

The surrounding Beastmen hastily pulled their fallen cubs and females to safety on one side.

The Bear Beastman seemed not to have expected anyone would dare to stop him.

Rage filled his dark brown eyes.

Already struggling with his out-of-control spiritual power, he was now thoroughly enraged. Unleashing a formidable power, he launched an attack on Wu Huo and the two other men.

The three of them were instantly locked in a fierce struggle with the Bear Beastman.

After several exchanges, the three of them failed to gain any advantage against the fully berserk Bear Beastman.

Just as the Bear Beastman sent one of Mu Silin’s men reeling back with a punch...

Mu Silin had seen enough.

He moved in a flash, leaping up and landing a powerful kick on the Bear Beastman’s head.

The Bear Beastman was sent flying, crashing hard onto the ground. It was as if his spiritual power had been instantly depleted; he lay on the ground, convulsing.

Wu Huo and the other two men hurried over and pinned down the delirious Bear Beastman, his spiritual power completely burned out.

With the danger averted, the surrounding Beastmen breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Shen Yue walked closer with Huang Ziyue and the others.

Gu Fangqi noticed at once.

"This Bear Beastman has an injury on his leg!"

It was a black wound.

Lan Cangyue said, "He went berserk because he was poisoned by a Lizardman’s heat poison?"

’No wonder he rushed toward that Snake Clan female in heat,’

’he must have smelled the pheromones of the female in heat because of the poison.’

Wu Huo and the other two men holding down the Bear Beastman were inwardly shocked.

They had recognized him at a glance during the fight; this was a warrior of the Ancient Bear Family.

’Why would a Beastman from the Ancient Bear Family be on Wilderness Mountain?’

’Could it be that Si Muye, who left more than a month ago, has returned?’

The three of them broke into a cold sweat, each worried for his own master.

This was especially true for Mu Silin’s man. ’It was the General who tricked that bear into leaving!’

’If that bear has really returned, isn’t that a disaster?’

Of course, Mu Silin and Ye Lüqi had thought of this as well. They looked at the endlessly convulsing Bear Beast on the ground, a silent, mutual understanding passing between them as unease grew in their hearts.

’If that bear has really returned, our positions are in jeopardy!’

They both instinctively glanced at Shen Yue, worried she would recognize the features of the Bear Beastman on the ground.

Just as they were thinking this, several warriors from the Ancient Bear Family came over.

"Zong You!"

The men rushed over from the other side in a panic.

They saw that their brother was not only being pinned to the ground but was also surrounded by a crowd.

The group immediately stopped in their tracks, standing several meters away.

They eyed Mu Silin and his companions warily.

Fearing they would attract attention after leaving the bamboo house on Wilderness Mountain, Shen Yue and her companions had wrapped themselves up tightly, concealing their faces.

Huang Ziyue’s dragon horns were particularly conspicuous, so they had all used cloaks and hoods to hide their faces and features to some extent.

Combined with the powerful auras they exuded, the warriors of the Ancient Bear Family instantly concluded that they were not good people.

One of them demanded:

"Who are you? Let him go."

Shen Yue looked at the men who had suddenly appeared and saw that one was carrying an unconscious male on his back.

The male had brown, curly hair, and a pair of furry ears peeked out.

The more she looked, the more familiar he seemed.

Ye Lüqi, Mu Silin, and Huang Ziyue all recognized the unconscious man at almost the exact same time.

They stepped forward in unison, shielding Shen Yue behind them.

Although his face was hidden as he was slumped over the warrior’s back...

...they could never mistake his aura.

They had never expected that bear to return to Wilderness Mountain, let alone find them!

A sense of crisis instantly washed over them!

Ye Lüqi hurriedly spoke first.

"We didn’t do anything to him. He charged over here on his own."

"Since he’s one of your men, hurry up and take him and get lost!"

When the Ancient Bear warriors heard this, one retorted:

"You say you didn’t do anything, and we’re just supposed to believe that?"

"You have him pinned to the ground. Is this a case of the many bullying the few?"

"And look at you, all bundled up. Are you too ugly to show your faces, or are you just not good people to begin with?"

Hearing this, Mu Silin shot back, trying to drive them away.

"Enough of your baseless accusations. Don’t you know this man has lost control of his spiritual power and gone berserk?"

"Since you’re here for him, take him and get lost. Don’t come here looking for trouble!"

The Ancient Bear warriors looked at each other.

The heat poison had penetrated deep into Zong You’s body, causing him to go on a complete rampage. It had been a moment of carelessness on their part that allowed him to suddenly go berserk and charge over here.

Seeing the hundred or so Beastmen standing behind the group, among whom were several terrified females...

...they immediately understood that they were in the wrong if they pressed the matter further.

With that, they sized up Huang Ziyue’s group one more time and decided not to get entangled.

They prepared to take Zong You and continue their journey.

The Third Young Master had said that as long as they returned to Barbaric City and found the person he was looking for, both he and Zong You could be saved!

Therefore, they dared not delay.

"Let him go. We’re taking him with us now!"

One of the warriors walked over, about to tie up Zong You with a rope.

Seeing this, Mu Silin and Ye Lüqi breathed a sigh of relief.

They knew Shen Yue wasn’t one to meddle in others’ affairs. As long as this group took the poisoned Beastman away, she wouldn’t proactively offer to treat him.

’That way, that bear and Shen Yue would surely never meet.’

But who could have known that at this very moment, a female holding a child would step out from the crowd.

"It’s you?"

The female walked over excitedly.

"You... you’re still alive?"

The warrior holding the rope froze, recognizing the female.

"It’s you?"

It was the gray wolf female they had saved that night.

The warriors from the Ancient Bear Family exchanged a look.

They hadn’t expected the gray wolf female to have not only escaped Wilderness Mountain but also survived.

’But she was definitely scratched by a Lizardman that night. After learning that Lizardmen carry a heat poison, we assumed she must have died. There’s no way she could have lived!’

The warrior asked aloud:

"Weren’t you scratched by that Lizardman? How are you still...?"

For a weak female with no spiritual power to resist it, the heat poison would prove fatal in less than a day.

Yet so many days had passed, and this female had not only escaped Wilderness Mountain but was also standing here, perfectly healthy.

The female immediately looked toward Shen Yue and said:

"It was my benefactor! I met my benefactor on the road, and she cured me of the poison!"

The men’s gazes instantly followed hers to Huang Ziyue and his companions.

They weren’t sure who the female was referring to, so their eyes moved between the various men.

The hearts of both Ye Lüqi and Mu Silin sank.

’This is bad.’

’There’s no getting away now!’

Huang Ziyue’s gaze darkened as well. When he had first arrived on Wilderness Mountain, he had seen with his own eyes just how close that bear and Shen Yue were.

If it hadn’t been for Mu Silin’s machinations to lure him away, they might never have had the chance to get close to Shen Yue.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the nervous expressions on Mu Silin and Ye Lüqi’s faces and raised an eyebrow.
