WHEN BEAUTY MEETS BEASTS

642 They Can’t Save You

Ignoring Xue Ling’s performance, Huanhuan extended her hand to Shuang Yun. “Where’s Little Lotus and the bracelet?”

Shuang Yun took out the skullcap and green crystal bracelet, waving them in front of her. “Do you want them? If you do, beg me.”

As a woman of the new era with ideals and principles, how could she submit to the other party’s coercion?!

She put her hands on her hips, raised her head, and glared at him aggressively.

“Mhm, I beg you.”

In the end, she still gave in.

Shuang Yun continued to make conditions. “You have to admit that you made a mistake.”

“What did I do wrong?”

Shuang Yun raised his voice. “The ring. You gave the main ring to Bai Di, while the three of us are wearing secondary rings. Aren’t you wrong to be so biased?”

Xue Ling stopped fooling around.

He pricked up his ears and waited for Huanhuan’s response.

The reason why he and Shuang Yun had specially run to the palace to look for Cynthia today was to get Little Lotus and the green crystal bracelet back. They wanted to use this opportunity to let Huanhuan understand that the two of them were no weaker than Bai Di in terms of strength and their feelings for her.

Why should Bai Di get her recognition and wear the extraordinary master ring while the two of them could only wear secondary rings?!

Huanhuan stole a look at Bai Di and saw him smiling at her.

His gaze was gentle.

But she felt her scalp tingle.

Instinct told her that if she dared to admit that she was wrong about letting Bai Di wear the master ring, Bai Di would beat her up later.

Last night was a bloody lesson!

Huanhuan subconsciously rubbed her butt, hesitating.

‘What should I do?’

Before she could think of a perfect answer, a black shadow suddenly descended from the sky and swooped down at Huanhuan!

Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling reacted extremely quickly. They immediately transformed into their beast forms and protected Huanhuan behind them.

When the black shadow rushed in front of them, they saw clearly that it was Yun Hui, whom they had been searching for a long time!

His face was expressionless, and Huanhuan’s stunned expression was reflected in his cold eyes.

As the other party was Yun Hui, Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling temporarily put away their hostility and did not attack him.

However, Yun Hui had come with ill intentions.

He transformed into a black dragon in the air, and his huge body knocked Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Xue Ling away. His dragon claws grabbed Huanhuan and brought her into the sky.

Xue Ling immediately flapped his wings and chased after them. Bai Di and Shuang Yun ran on the ground in pursuit.

Huanhuan was held so tightly by the dragon claws that she couldn’t move. Her long hair fluttered in the wind.

She tried to raise her head to the fierce wind and asked loudly, “Little Black, where are you taking me?”

Yun Hui didn’t respond.

He flew her over several high mountains before landing on a mountain not far from Scaled City.

This was a volcano. Steam kept coming out of the volcano. The thick smell of sulfur floated in the air, making it difficult for Huanhuan to breathe.

She was thrown to the ground.

The heat traveled through the ground, making it hot. Huanhuan’s skin turned red.

She scrambled to her feet, her face red from the heat.

The huge black dragon looked down at her, thinking about something.

The sound of metal clinking could be heard.

Huanhuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Cyril appear from nowhere. The long chain was hanging from his ankle. With every step he took, the chain clanked.

Cynthia sat on his shoulder. Her red lips curled into a rather smug smile. “Long time no see, little female.”

Huanhuan stared at her. “What do you want to do?”

“I wanted to kill you the last time, but you escaped. I thought we wouldn’t meet again. I didn’t expect you to come knocking on my door again. You won’t be as lucky this time.”

The skullcap and green crystal bracelet were both with Shuang Yun. She only had the interspatial ring on her.

She quickly took out a small crossbow and aimed it at Cynthia. “Bai Di and the others will be here soon. I advise you not to do anything rash.”

“They can’t save you.” Cynthia didn’t care about the weapon in her hand at all. “No one in this world can save you. Your fate was doomed to a tragic end from the beginning.”

Huanhuan said nothing. Her finger was on the trigger.

She had the system. Cynthia couldn’t kill her.

Hence, she didn’t feel that afraid.

There was hatred in Cynthia’s eyes. “Sometimes, I really envy you. You have the love of so many people, and you have the beautiful looks bestowed by the heavens and an immortal body. But I have nothing. My family and lover betrayed me. I even have to feed on fresh flesh to maintain this face of mine.”

At the end of her words, she suddenly smiled happily, her eyes filled with smugness.

“But it doesn’t matter. My family is dead, and my lover will get his retribution soon. As for your face, it’ll be mine.”

Huanhuan couldn’t help but retort, “It’s your business if you want revenge. Why drag me down with you?!”

“I’m not dragging you into this. Someone wants you dead.”

Cynthia’s words came out of nowhere. Huanhuan was stunned for a moment before she subconsciously asked, “Who wants my life?”

“Shh,” Cynthia said mysteriously as she raised her index finger to her red lips. “Don’t mention that lord’s name. If you wake him up, he’ll lose his temper.”

Huanhuan thought she looked like a lunatic. “Who are you talking about?”

“That’s a secret. I can’t tell you. It’s getting late, so let’s end our small talk here.” Cynthia suddenly ended the topic and raised her chin at Yun Hui.

“Kill her.”

The black dragon immediately raised his claws and stepped on Huanhuan!

Huanhuan rolled on the ground and dodged the dragon’s claws. She got up and ran.

The black dragon flapped his wings and chased after him.

In her panic, Huanhuan was getting closer and closer to the volcano.

When the black dragon pounced on her again, she was so frightened that she slipped and fell!

She was about to fall into the crater that was dozens of meters high and full of boiling lava.

“The host’s life is in danger. The system is activating the emergency transfer program.

“The system is counting down.

“Three, two, one…

“Code error detected. Program initiated failed!”

Huanhuan wanted to hit the system when she heard this.

At the critical moment, she grabbed a rock protruding from the edge of the volcano. The rock was hot, and in the blink of an eye, it burned her palms.

She quickly took a bone knife from her space and inserted it into the crack in the rock.

She let go of the hot surface and gripped the bone knife tightly with both hands.

Huanhuan looked down. There was a very large magma pool below. Red magma was bubbling and gurgling.

If she fell, she would definitely be scalded until not even her bones were left.
