When Beauty Meets Beasts

Chapter 140 - Bai Luo

Chapter 140: Bai Luo

They rested in the inn for the night.

Early the next morning, the city lord of Red Crystal City personally came to apologize. At the same time, he gave Bai Di the Golden Silk Flower that Yin Jie had bought. He also gave Bai Di a few red crystals.

The apology seemed sincere. Bai Di didn’t say anything and accepted the gifts.

Seeing that Bai Di was willing to accept the gifts, the city lord of Red Crystal City heaved a sigh of relief.

Knowing that Bai Di was leaving for Sun City today, the city lord led the guards and personally sent them out of the Red Stone Canyon. He remained extremely respectful throughout.

Huanhuan sat on the white tiger’s back while they were followed closely by 30 guards.

Their discipline was very strict. From beginning to end, they maintained a perfect state of stillness. There was almost no unnecessary movement or words.

Xue Ling flew in the sky and would occasionally come down to chat with Huanhuan, but most of the time, he was nowhere to be seen.

He didn’t seem to like being with the guards.

They traveled for almost three days before they finally arrived at Sun City early on the fourth morning.

Sun City was built in a desert.

There were neither gates nor walls. The place looked scattered, but if one looked down from a height, one would see a dense cluster of stone houses. They gathered into a huge circle, and in the center of the circle was a tall, magnificent building.

Bai Di told Huanhuan that that was the palace.

Behind the palace was another divine mountain. The mountain was the territory of the temple. Inside lived the high priest and the oracles.

Guards were patrolling outside the city. When they saw Bai Di, they knelt on one knee and bowed.

Bai Di seemed to be used to this. He was very calm.

Huanhuan wasn’t used to it, but she didn’t want to embarrass Bai Di. She tried to act calm.

After entering the city, she slowly realized that the hierarchy here was very strict.

From the outer city to the inner city, there were layers and layers in between. The closer they were to the palace and the divine mountain, the higher the standard of the houses and buildings there. The beasts were also cleaner and neater.

Bai Di took the initiative to be the tour guide and introduced the place to Huanhuan.

“The outer city here is divided into three levels. The first level is for slaves and poor people. The second level is for ordinary civilians. The third level is for rich merchants. The inner city is divided into two halves. The left half is for noble beasts, and the right half is for believers who serve the high priest and the oracles. Without permission, ordinary beasts can’t enter the inner city. This is the rule of the city.”

Compared to Red Crystal City, Sun City was more like a complete beast city. Although there were also dirty buildings and streets here, the hierarchy here was far stricter than in Red Crystal City.

It was said that there was a main city above all the middle cities called ‘The City of All Beasts’.

She wondered what the scene inside that city would be like.

Huanhuan was curious.

The group reached the entrance of the palace without any problems.

There was a huge tiger statue at the palace gate.

The carving was rough, but the unique charm of a tiger was displayed. It looked majestic.

However, Xue Ling suddenly said to Bai Di and Huanhuan, “I still have something on. I won’t accompany you to the palace. I’ll look for you in three days.”

He touched the lotus. “Take care of your mother.”

The lotus hummed and rubbed against his palm.

Huanhuan asked, “Where are you going?”

Xue Ling smiled suggestively. “Are you concerned about me?”

Huanhuan rolled her eyes.

“I’m going to look for an old friend.” Xue Ling threw her a short flute made of polished bones. “Blow it if you’re in danger. I’ll think about helping you if I’m free.”

Huanhuan caught the flute and thanked him politely.

“I won’t accept verbal thanks.”

“Then what do you want…?”

Before Huanhuan could finish speaking, she saw Xue Ling suddenly lean over. His handsome face suddenly enlarged in front of her eyes, but she still couldn’t find a flaw. His feather-like eyelashes were almost perfect!

He kissed her on the lips. “I like this thanks very much.”

Before Huanhuan could flare up, Xue Ling had already flapped his wings and flown away with a happy smile.

What an annoying guy!

Huanhuan cursed the bird man as she put the flute away.

There were a few beasts standing outside the palace gate, and one of them was a young white-haired male beast.

He was wearing a tiger-skin dress and a necklace with blue crystals and tiger teeth. He was slender and strong. His wheat-colored skin looked very healthy and beautiful. His blue eyes were like the best blue crystals out there. They were extremely dazzling.

The moment Huanhuan saw him, she couldn’t help but think that this male beast really looked like Bai Di!

The young white-haired male beast’s blue eyes lit up the moment he saw Bai Di.

He strode forward and hugged Bai Di.

“Second Brother, you’re finally back! Yesterday, I heard from Xiong Shu that you were back. I was so happy that I couldn’t sleep the entire night. I came to the palace gate to wait for you at dawn!”

Bai Di hugged him back and smiled. “Not bad. You’ve grown a lot.”

Bai Di turned to Huanhuan and introduced, “This kid is Bai Luo, my biological brother.”

Huanhuan was enlightened. No wonder they looked alike. They were biological brothers!

Huanhuan was nervous about seeing her brother-in-law for the first time. She pulled down her hood to reveal her pretty, fair face. “Hello,” she said, smiling. “I’m Huanhuan, Bai Di’s mate.”

Bai Luo had long heard that Bai Di had found a female mate. He did not take it to heart at first, but when he saw her face, he was a little stunned.

It was rare to see such a beautiful female, especially one with fair and delicate skin. Her skin was like milk, making one want to touch her.

Bai Luo immediately smiled widely, his blue eyes as bright as stars. “I didn’t expect Second Brother to find such a beautiful mate when he went out on his long trip. If I had known that such a good thing would happen to happen, I would have shamelessly followed Second Brother back then!”

Huanhuan was a little embarrassed by the praise, and her fair cheeks turned slightly red.

Bai Di smiled helplessly. “Don’t tease Huanhuan. She’ll be very embarrassed.”

Bai Luo shook his head and clicked his tongue. “Tsk, others say that male beasts will become especially protective after finding a mate. I didn’t believe it in the past, but I’ve finally seen it happen today. Your heart is all on Huanhuan now. You don’t care about me at all!”

Bai Di patted his shoulder. “When you find a mate you like, you might become even more protective than me.”

“Tsk, I wouldn’t!”

The brothers chatted and laughed as they walked into the palace.

Huanhuan was in Bai Di’s arms, feeling very nervous.

This was her first time visiting her father-in-law. She wondered what kind of person he was.
