Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 841: Chapter 665: Selection Qualification (Part 2)

At worst, just let him participate in the selection.

Anyway, it’s just one more contestant, what impact can it have on the outcome of the competition?

That’s right, these elders never considered that Shen Li might win.

Shen Li is strong, but he is ultimately just a Red Fox Beastman. No matter how outstanding his displayed strength is, he couldn’t truly compare with those exceptional talents in the clan.

What’s more, the rules of the competition are set by them, and there’s plenty of room for manipulation in secret. How could they let him win?

This Fox Beast is indeed excellent, but unfortunately young and impetuous, too simple-minded, too foolish, and too ambitious.

He could have used this matter to demand more practical benefits, power, status, treasures, but he chose such a vain title instead.

In the end, it will all be for nothing.

Thinking of this, the elders’ expressions slightly relaxed, and a hint of sarcasm quietly flickered in their eyes.

"Alright, since Your Excellency insists, we will agree to let you participate." The Great Elder finally relented, "But Your Excellency must keep it a secret and not mention today’s events to outsiders."

"Okay, the elders are straightforward, today’s matter, I’ll pretend it never happened." Shen Li said, his gaze lightly sweeping towards Xin Lian behind the elders.

Just one glance frightened her into a shiver, and those romantic thoughts instantly dissipated.

The young man gave a quiet warning, "Today, I’m giving face to the Divine Fox Clan. If there’s a next time, I won’t hold back."

After speaking, he turned and left, and no one dared to stop him.

The air on the scene seemed to have solidified, heavy and oppressive.

The elders’ expressions were complex, and the other Beastmen were silent, momentarily not knowing what to do.

It’s really strange, this Red Fox from the lower ranks, actually made them feel an indescribable danger and pressure, even the elders vaguely had such an illusion.

Until that figure completely disappeared from sight, the crowd gradually started to stir.

"That Red Fox is too arrogant!" A young Beastman said angrily.

"Exactly, what if he’s strong? He’s just a newcomer to the Royal City, daring to challenge the Divine Fox Clan! If word gets out, where will our face be?"

"Great Elder, you’re really just letting him go?"

The Great Elder gave that young Beastman a cold glance, "Otherwise, are you going to stop him?"

The other party was immediately rendered speechless.

No matter how much they looked down on him, the strength was there. They were simply not a match for that Fox Beast, nor could they stop him.

This Red Fox’s strength is probably no less than those geniuses in the clan!

And Xin Lian was so angry she couldn’t speak, she didn’t expect the elders to let Shen Li go so easily, feeling both painful and hateful, covering half of her face, which was a bloody mess, and let out a pig-like scream.

The Great Elder’s face also showed a trace of impatience.

"Take the young miss back to heal her injuries." He ordered in a deep voice, "As for today’s matter, don’t disturb the Family Head yet, he’s in seclusion and shouldn’t be bothered."

"Yes."

Several people quickly helped the incessantly screaming Xin Lian leave.

...

Outside the Divine Fox Clan’s hospital.

A handsome man with snow-white hair hurried over.

He was dressed in luxurious clothing, exuding an extraordinary aura, followed by several followers, obviously a young master from some family.

"Young Master Ji Qing, you’re here, are you looking for Miss Xin Lian?" The guards at the door quickly greeted him.

"How is Lian’er? Take me to see her!" The young man said urgently.

He was Ji Qing, the nephew of the Great Elder of the Divine Fox Clan, recognized as one of the favored talents in the clan, one of the most gifted among the younger generation.

Ji Qing and Xin Lian grew up together, always had a good relationship, and even before reaching adulthood, he had already begun to pursue Xin Lian passionately.

Although Xin Lian had not formally married nor made any public declarations, in the eyes of outsiders, they were already considered a pair, an ideally matched couple for marriage.

Upon hearing of Xin Lian’s accident, Ji Qing came immediately.

A Beastman led him into the hospital room.

Xin Lian’s injuries had undergone emergency treatment, using the best doctors and the most expensive Healing Potions. Her face was no longer a bloody mess, but most of it still bore an ugly, centipede-like scar that was impossible to remove.

When Ji Qing entered and saw this scene, he was visibly startled, a flicker of disgust crossing his face.

But he quickly composed himself, adopting a gentle, concerned expression, and stepped forward saying, "Lian’er, I heard you had an accident, how did you get so badly hurt?"

"Ooh ooh, Brother Ji Qing, you finally came!" Xin Lian grabbed his hand, crying miserably, "That Shen Li wanted to kill me! The injuries on my face were caused by him, it hurts so much... What should I do, the scar won’t heal, I’m ruined!"

After all these years of feelings, seeing her like this, Ji Qing’s heart also felt a bit hurt.
