When beauty meets beasts

Chapter 166 - He Dies!  



Chapter 166: He Dies!

Ma Qing had been tortured beyond recognition.

He was locked in the dungeon and was dying. Jiu Yuan and another male beast were in charge of guarding him.

In order not to let Ma Qing die too quickly, Dong Ya would make a bowl of medicine according to the prescription that Huanhuan made and send it to Ma Qing every day to help him extend his life.

Jiu Yuan estimated the time. Dong Ya would be delivering the medicine soon.

Ma Qing looked up at Jiu Yuan, who was not far away. He suddenly said, “If I remember correctly, Mu Ye is your brother-in-law, right?”

Jiu Yuan glanced at him. “It’s none of your business!”

Ma Qing chuckled, revealing his teeth that were covered in blood and dirt. “Then do you know that Mu Ye is dead?”

Jiu Yuan: “…”

“From the looks of it, you already know. Do you want to know why Mu Ye died?”

Jiu Yuan’s expression turned extremely dark. “If you say another word, I’ll cut off your tongue!”

However, Ma Qing knew that he did not dare to cut off his tongue. After all, Shuang Yun still wanted to know a lot of things from him.

...

Ma Qing smiled fearlessly. “Because Mu Ye found out that the Black River Tribe was going to attack the Rock Wolf Tribe. He wanted to deliver the news to you. Unfortunately, he died before he could return to the rock mountain. What an idiot!”

Jiu Yuan couldn’t take it anymore. He reached out and picked up the limp Ma Qing from the ground with murderous intent.

“Shut up!”

Another male beast quickly pulled Jiu Yuan away. “Don’t be rash. Calm down!”

Ma Qing looked at the exasperated Jiu Yuan and laughed even louder.

In any case, he had no way out. He would not let the others have it easy either!

Jiu Yuan’s eyes were red as he glared at him. He wished he could kill this bastard now!

His companion hugged him tightly, preventing him from attacking Ma Qing.

Suddenly, his companion noticed the figure at the cell door and asked sternly, “Who’s outside? Come out!”

A moment later, Mu Xiang walked in with a bowl of medicine.

Dong Ya was supposed to deliver the medicine today, but he had to do something else and could not come, so he left this matter to Mu Xiang.

As soon as Mu Xiang approached the cell, she heard what Ma Qing said.

Mu Ye was dead.

Her brother was dead.

Mu Xiang stood in the doorway of the cell like a lifeless puppet.

Jiu Yuan couldn’t help but panic when he saw her like this. He quickly said, “Don’t believe Ma Qing. He’s lying!”

But Ma Qing deliberately tore apart his lie.

“Mu Ye was abandoned by Yi Wu long ago and died on the way to the rock mountain! If you don’t believe me, you can look for him yourself. You might even find one or two pieces of his body that haven’t been eaten by wild animals!”

Jiu Yuan shouted angrily, “Enough!”

Ma Qing’s smile was ferocious and smug. “Why are you afraid to tell her the truth? Why lie to her? Do you feel good playing her like she’s a fool?”

“That’s not true!” Jiu Yuan reached for Mu Xiang’s hand. “Don’t believe his nonsense. Let’s get out of here.”

Mu Xiang threw the medicine at him. “Don’t touch me! You liar!”

Jiu Yuan was splashed with the medicine.

But he didn’t care about that. His eyes were fixed on Mu Xiang as he said anxiously, “It’s really not what you think. Come with me and I’ll explain it to you, okay?”

“You don’t have to explain. Just tell me if Mu Ye is dead.”

Jiu Yuan held it in for a long time. In the end, he could only squeeze out a word. “Yes.”

Mu Xiang’s eyes were red. “Did you already know everything? Have you been lying to me?”

“I didn’t want to lie to you. I just didn’t want you to be sad!”

“Won’t I feel sad about you lying to me?”

Jiu Yuan was speechless and could only keep apologizing. “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry…”

“I don’t want to hear your apology. I’m so disappointed in you!” Mu Xiang turned to leave.

Jiu Yuan wanted to chase after her, but he heard Mu Xiang say coldly, “Don’t follow me. I don’t want to see you or say another word to you.”

Jiu Yuan could only stop and watch as she walked away.

His companion patted his shoulder and comforted him. “After a while when she’s calmer, you can explain it to her slowly. She’ll definitely forgive you.”

Jiu Yuan strode toward Ma Qing and grabbed him. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness. “Are you satisfied now?!”

Ma Qing grinned. “You lied to her. She’ll never believe you again. Your relationship will deteriorate until she abandons you. Then you’ll die a miserable and lonely death. Hahahaha!”

Jiu Yuan had the urge to strangle him.

His companion quickly grabbed his hand. “Don’t be rash! Patriarch Shuang Yun asked us to keep an eye on him. If you kill him, how are we going to explain it to Patriarch Shuang Yun?!”

At this moment, Jiu Yuan was furious.

He threw Shuang Yun’s advice to the back of his mind and grabbed Ma Qing’s neck. No matter how hard his companion pulled, he refused to let go.

He had to kill this bastard, Ma Qing!

By the time Shuang Yun heard the news and rushed over, Ma Qing had already been strangled to death.

His body was thrown to the ground. His limbs were twisted together. There was not a single spot on his body that hadn’t been tortured. He was covered in blood and looked extremely disgusting.

Jiu Yuan stood at the side, panting heavily. Veins were bulging on his forehead. He had clearly not recovered from his anger.

Shuang Yun scratched his short silver-white hair and said in frustration, “Jiu Yuan, didn’t I tell you to keep an eye on Ma Qing and not let him die easily? Why did he die just as I walked away?!”

After a while, Jiu Yuan gradually calmed down.

He said stiffly, “I killed Ma Qing. I’ll take all the blame. I’m willing to be punished!”

“I’m not trying to hold you responsible, but you have to give me a reasonable explanation for this.”

Jiu Yuan said hatefully, “He deserves to die!”

“I know he deserves to die, but we couldn’t let him die now. We needed to pry more useful information out of him. Didn’t I tell you this long ago? Have you forgotten everything?!”

“I haven’t forgotten, but I couldn’t help it. He’s so hateful!”

Shuang Yun was defeated by his answer. In the end, he could only order the others, “Go get rid of Ma Qing’s body and wash this place clean so that it won’t attract bugs.”

The wolf beasts immediately acted and threw Ma Qing’s corpse down the mountain.
