Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Don’t Touch My Cubs!
Su Qinglan’s mind spun. So much had happened in these few moments, yet Shi Feng had not appeared. Even she herself had not sensed this man’s presence until he deliberately revealed himself.
This Rong Yanchen was truly terrifyingly powerful.
Her face tightened with calculation. She was already in the final stage of pregnancy...ready to give birth any time now, maybe even tomorrow. She couldn’t fight recklessly. Regret flooded her. Why didn’t I bring Xuan Long with me?
Suddenly, Rong Yanchen’s strong arms wrapped tightly around her waist, trying to lift her off the ground.
Su Qinglan reacted instantly. She shoved his hands away with force. "You better not touch me with your disgusting hands!"
Rong Yanchen’s eyes flashed with dark amusement. Before she could pull away completely, a sharp hiss of pain escaped her lips.
The tip of his dagger had pierced her back, right along her curved spine. Warm blood soaked through her clothes.
She glared at him fiercely.
Rong Yanchen smiled coldly and spoke in a very low, threatening voice.
"I really don’t have a good temper, female. Even if you become my future mate, I will treat you well...but only if you behave quietly. I don’t like playing hard games."
This time, when his muscular arms wrapped around her waist again, squeezing her heavily pregnant belly, Su Qinglan did not dare resist. Her face twisted in pain and humiliation, teeth gritted so hard they might crack.
In the tense silence, a thin green vine slowly erupted from the ground near her feet. It crept silently toward the door, trying to slip outside unnoticed. If it reached Shi Feng, he would come rushing in.
She and Shi Feng together could at least force this bastard to retreat.
But her hope shattered in an instant.
Rong Yanchen’s foot came down hard, squashing the vine into the floor with a sickening crunch. "Don’t try to play tricks on me," he said calmly. "And don’t think I don’t know this little trick of yours."
Su Qinglan’s eyes widened in shock. She stared at him, speechless. How does he know?
Rong Yanchen gave her an evil, victorious smile. He had already won this round. He knew her abilities far better than she realized.
Su Qinglan’s entire mind was still in chaos as Rong Yanchen held her tightly while moving through the darkness. She truly could not understand one thing at all.
How could this man know about her plant-type ability?
Even her own beast husbands had never completely understood her powers because she had always hidden many secrets carefully inside her heart.
Yet this man had crushed her little vine without hesitation, like he had already known everything beforehand.
Before she could even organize her thoughts properly, Rong Yanchen had already wrapped a dark cloth tightly around her eyes and carried her away through another hidden exit of Yue Lian’s house.
The moment they stepped outside, Su Qinglan immediately noticed something strange. It was as if their entire presence had disappeared from the surroundings completely.
Their smell, aura, footsteps, and even their breathing felt hidden by some mysterious force, making her heart slowly sink deeper with every passing second.
Su Qinglan’s fingers unconsciously tightened around her swollen stomach as fear and regret slowly spread through her chest. If she had been alone, she would have fought this bastard directly without hesitation.
Even if she could not defeat him completely, she would still make him pay heavily. But now things are different. Her cubs could come into this world at any moment. She could not risk their safety recklessly while trapped in such a dangerous situation.
Lowering her head slightly, she silently whispered inside her heart, "Babies... please behave for now. Don’t come out yet. Your mother is not in a condition to protect all of you properly."
Strangely enough, the restless kicking inside her stomach gradually calmed down, almost as if the cubs had truly understood her words. That alone made her eyes sting slightly with emotion, but she quickly forced herself to stay calm.
Meanwhile, Rong Yanchen continued moving rapidly through the darkness without stopping even once. Cold wind brushed against Su Qinglan’s body constantly, and she could not even tell how far they had traveled already.
Her entire body remained tense the whole time, carefully memorizing every movement and every sound around her, but it was useless. This man was far too experienced and cautious.
Before she realized it, they had already crossed the walls of Dragon Beast City completely.
Finally, after what felt like a very long time, Rong Yanchen slowed down before carrying her into a cold and damp cave.
The smell of wet stone instantly entered her nose, and soon he carefully placed her down on the ground.
The moment her feet touched the floor, Su Qinglan immediately yanked the cloth away from her eyes and stepped backward several times with an extremely ugly expression on her face.
Her sharp eyes instantly landed on Rong Yanchen, who slowly removed the dark cloak hiding his appearance.
The moment his true face was revealed, Su Qinglan’s expression became even colder.
His features were unbelievably handsome, almost enough to rival some immortal from legends, but in her eyes, that face belonged to nothing but a shameless devil who deserved to be beaten to death.
Rong Yanchen, however, only looked amused while staring at her furious expression.
His gaze slowly lowered toward her swollen stomach before he casually asked, "How many days are left?"
The moment Su Qinglan heard those words, her body instantly stiffened with vigilance.
But Rong Yanchen only smiled lightly before continuing in a calm voice, "You should give birth soon. After all, I need to get rid of this nuisance first before I finally take you away completely."
The moment those words entered her ears, Su Qinglan’s anger exploded instantly.
Without hesitation, she grabbed a stone from the ground and directly threw it toward his face while shouting furiously, "You shameless bastard! If you dare touch my cubs, I will skin you alive!"
Her eyes were completely red from anger as she glared at him murderously, looking like she truly wanted to bite a piece of flesh from his body.
