After Pampering Her 5 Beast Husbands, the Villainess Struck It Rich

Chapter 61: Chapter 61: How Can Beastmen Be So Shameless!

When the Beastmen in the rear saw Hu Yan and the others running toward the front right, they gritted their teeth and followed suit.

Yue Junxiao heard the commotion and saw that the other Beastmen had led the entire pack of Low-level Beasts over to them. He cursed in fury, "Fuck! This bunch of trash!"

Cursing, he doubled back. Once Hu Yan and Sang Mo were past him, he swung his Wolf Fang Club and slammed it into the trees with a few loud WHAMS.

Beastmen were naturally strong, and with the added power of the Wolf Fang Club, trees began to topple one after another.

For a moment, the path for all the Beastmen behind them was blocked.

Seeing their path blocked and the herd of beasts closing in from behind, the Beastmen erupted in a volley of curses aimed at Yue Junxiao. "You fucking cunts, you motherfucking bastards! Don’t you let me catch you, or I’ll fucking kill you!"

Yue Junxiao, however, was unmoved. His hands simply moved even faster.

Once he was sure they were trapped and couldn’t get through, he sneered at them. "Bunch of trash! Come and get me if you have the balls!"

With that, he quickly ran to catch up with Hu Yan’s group.

He had used nearly all his strength. The hand holding his Wolf Fang Club was trembling slightly, but his feet never stopped as he raced after Hu Yan and the others.

Because of the brief delay, the pack of Low-level Beasts quickly caught up. The trapped Beastmen had no choice but to turn and fight.

Yan Yichen had the clearest view from the sky. He hadn’t left; instead, he had hidden in a tree.

He had originally just wanted to watch the show but unexpectedly overheard a nearby conversation between two of the Beastmen.

"Damn it, they got away. Should we find another chance to get close? If we can’t plant the item on them, this is all useless. We won’t be able to complete the mission, and we won’t be able to answer for it back home."

"Those fucking wastes! If you hadn’t pissed them off in the first place, we wouldn’t have to resort to this."

"Just focus on delaying them for as long as possible. Nothing else matters."

The grumbling curses of another Beastman interrupted their chat. "These Low-level Beasts are a real pain in the ass!"

"Damn it, if those Beastmen had just helped us, things would’ve been so much easier! But instead they blocked us off and ran away themselves! What a bunch of pussies!"

"Who was it that said they were over here? If we hadn’t come, we wouldn’t be stuck fighting these damned Low-level Beasts! Fuck!"

Though he didn’t hear the rest of their conversation, Yan Yichen could guess from what he’d heard that they had come here with a premeditated plan. They hadn’t succeeded this time, which meant they would definitely try something else later.

Lang Qiu, cradled in Yan Yichen’s arms, spoke with a serious expression on his wolfish face. "Find Hu Yan. Tell him about this."

If Bai Zhi had seen this before, she would have been ecstatic—a talking wolf!!

But she had already seen Lang Qiu in his half-Beastman form, so seeing this now would only cause mild surprise, certainly not the same level of excitement his other form inspired.

"Right."

Yan Yichen spread his wings and, holding Lang Qiu, flew forward once more. "I wonder who they were talking about."

They didn’t have many enemies. If it was that group of boxers, why would they only want to delay them?

So it obviously wasn’t them.

’Delay us... but why? ...’

By then, Yan Yichen had caught up to Hu Yan’s group and relayed the conversation he had overheard.

Hearing Yan Yichen’s report, Hu Yan’s brow furrowed. He quickly ran through recent events in his mind. Like Lang Qiu, his first instinct was to rule out the boxers.

Then it hit him, and his expression changed drastically. "Oh no! My Wife-Master is in danger!!"

Those people are stalling us to make sure we return late. That means they’re going to make a move on Bai Zhi!

They’re holding us up to stop us from getting back in time to save her!

Yue Junxiao’s face paled when he heard this. "Then what are we waiting for? We have to go back now!"

Hu Yan said, "Have you forgotten why we came here? If we go back now, this attempt will be invalidated, and we’ll be punished."

Yan Yichen asked, "Then what do we do?!"

Hu Yan suddenly looked back in the direction they had come from and said meaningfully, "Don’t we have a ready-made solution right here?!"

Yan Yichen repeated subconsciously, "’Ready-made?’"

A cunning smile spread across Hu Yan’s face. "Exactly. We’ll steal theirs!!!"

Yue Junxiao’s mind was unprecedentedly clear. He instantly understood what Hu Yan meant and immediately started running back.

Seeing him turn back, Yan Yichen shouted, "Where are you going?"

Yue Junxiao yelled back, "To snatch the corpses!"

As soon as he said it, everyone except Sang Mo rushed back the way they came.

The other Beastmen were still locked in a desperate battle. There weren’t many corpses on the ground yet; for so many Beastmen, there were only seven or eight dead beasts, and several of them were already injured.

Relying on his speed running boots, Yue Junxiao charged into the fray, heaved a beast’s corpse onto his shoulder, and tossed it out. "Catch!!"

Hu Yan’s whip shot out, coiling around the corpse in mid-air and yanking the Low-level Beast’s body out of the horde.

Lang Qiu and Yan Yichen were in charge of stowing the beasts in their spatial storage.

One, two, three...

Yue Junxiao’s actions instantly drew the attention of the other Beastmen. "What the hell are you doing?!!" one roared in anger.

"Can’t you see? I’m collecting corpses!" Yue Junxiao retorted, quickly tossing another one out.

"We killed those!" the Beastman shouted, charging at Yue Junxiao.

But Yue Junxiao had a clear objective and had no intention of engaging him. Relying on his speed running boots, he weaved through the chaos like a snake, dodging both the attacking Beastman and the Low-level Beasts.

More and more of the Beastmen noticed what they were doing, and all of them became furious.

This was just too much!!

It was bad enough that they had been blocked and left to deal with all these Low-level Beasts, but now they were back to steal the fruits of their labor!!

How could there be such shameless Beastmen!!

A few Beastmen tried to attack Yue Junxiao, but he dodged them, causing them to turn right into the path of a Low-level Beast that sent them flying.

"AHHH—"

Seeing this, the other Beastmen only cursed louder.

"Those are ours!! You bastards! Stop! Stop right now!"

"Drag them into the fray! Don’t let a single one escape!!"

Hearing their threats, Yue Junxiao didn’t stop. In fact, he moved even faster.

The teamwork on the outside was flawless: as one tossed, another would catch, seamlessly collecting the corpses.

Once all the corpses had been thrown clear, Yue Junxiao quickly disengaged and retreated from the battlefield.

Just before leaving, he made a point of pulling his Wolf Fang Club from his storage and taking a jab at the pack of Low-level Beasts.

His action immediately provoked a collective howl from the beasts.

"ROAR—"

By the time anyone looked again, Yue Junxiao and his group had already rapidly retreated from the battlefield, leaving only their fading silhouettes behind.

They departed with a casual air, as if they had nothing to do with the chaos they’d just caused.

Meanwhile, the Beastmen trapped in the horde were stunned by the roar. It wasn’t until the beasts began attacking them with renewed frenzy that they realized what Yue Junxiao’s final act had accomplished!!

Watching the backs of the departing group, the trapped Beastmen were utterly and completely enraged!!
