When Beauty Meets Beasts

Chapter 489 - You’re Crushing Me

Chapter 489: You’re Crushing Me

Chen Yuan walked ashore.

That’s right. He ‘walked’.

No one saw clearly when his fishtail turned into two long and straight legs. The fish scales automatically turned into a dark purple fish skin dress at his waist.

His legs were no different from ordinary beasts. It was just that he had two pairs of purple translucent fins at his ankles. Translucent webbing was attached between his toes.

When Chen Yuan walked toward Huanhuan, Bai Di and Xue Ling did not stop him.

With Huanhuan’s current strength, it would not be easy for Chen Yuan to hurt her.

Chen Yuan stood a meter away from Huanhuan and extended his right hand. “Give it to me.”

Huanhuan said, “Before I give you the shark crystal, I want to ask you about someone.”

“Ask away.”

“Do you know anything about Xuan Wei?”

When Chen Yuan heard the words ‘Xuan Wei’, his gaze immediately darkened. “You know Xuan Wei?”

Huanhuan could not figure out the attitude of the merfolk toward Xuan Wei. She could only answer vaguely, “I guess you can say that…”

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, sharp claws immediately grew out of Chen Yuan’s right hand and grabbed her neck!

He was too fast.

Fortunately, Huanhuan reacted quickly enough and dodged Chen Yuan’s sneak attack.

At the same time, Xue Ling and Bai Di rushed over to help her deal with Chen Yuan.

When the merfolk saw that their leader was being bullied, they immediately jumped ashore, picked up their weapons, and pounced at Huanhuan and the other two!

Other than Chen Yuan, no other merfolk could turn their fishtails into legs. They relied on their fishtails to stay upright on land. Their fins mimicked the movements of a pair of feet walking. Their strides were small, but they were very fast, so they walked very quickly. They were not inferior to crawling beasts.

The two sides immediately started fighting.

Despite being the strongest one among the merfolk, Chen Yuan was quickly at a disadvantage when he was surrounded by Xue Ling and Bai Di.

However, he had no intention of admitting defeat. Even if he had to risk being killed, he would fight to the end.

Under the lead of the leader, all the merfolk seemed to be on steroids. The more they fought, the more ruthless they became.

Huanhuan saw that this could not continue.

Her original intention here was to find out about Xuan Wei’s whereabouts. She did not want to fight the merfolk.

While Chen Yuan was forced back by the flames in Xue Ling’s hand, Huanhuan flew over from the side and threw him to the ground!

He wanted to push her away.

But she sat down on his abdomen, grabbed his hands, and pressed them firmly to the ground on either side.

The strength of the dragon race was really impressive. No matter how hard Chen Yuan tried, he could not break free from her suppression. However, unexpectedly, even after being reduced to this state, he did not look angry at all. He was frighteningly calm.

“Even if you kill me, I’ll never give you another chance to step into Rainbow Lake.”

Huanhuan was puzzled. “When did I ask to step into Rainbow Lake?”

Chen Yuan said, “Are you still pretending? Do you dare say that Xuan Wei didn’t ask you to come to Rainbow Lake to kill and rob us?”

When the merfolk saw that their leader was pressed to the ground, they surrounded him to save him, but Bai Di and Xue Ling joined forces to stop them. The merfolk couldn’t defeat Bai Di and Xue Ling, so they were all exasperated and shouted for the enemy to let their leader go!

Huanhuan looked at the leader of the merfolk below her and couldn’t help but blink. “Don’t tell me you think we’re in cahoots with Xuan Wei?”

Chen Yuan saw something wrong with her reaction and immediately asked, “Are you not in cahoots with Xuan Wei?”

“We’re Xuan Wei’s enemies.”

Chen Yuan did not believe her. “The tiger beast among the three of you looks extremely similar to Xuan Wei. Even the aura on his body is a little similar. They must be brothers, right? Even if they’re not brothers, they should be relatives of close blood ties. You can’t be enemies with Xuan Wei.”

“Can’t a brother be an enemy? Xuan Wei killed someone very important to us and took something of ours. We have to seek justice from him.”

“Why should I believe you?”

Huanhuan smiled. “I can suppress you now. I’m stronger than you. If I were really in cahoots with Xuan Wei, it wouldn’t be difficult for me to kill you now.”

Chen Yuan’s expression was a little complicated.

Any male beast would be in a bad mood if they were firmly suppressed by their opponent and forced to admit that they were weaker than the other party.

Huanhuan lowered her head and approached his face. “As long as you tell me news about Xuan Wei, I’ll return the shark crystal to you. After that, we’ll leave Rainbow Lake immediately and never appear in front of you again.”

Chen Yuan was still hesitating, thinking about how credible her words were.

As the parties involved, Huanhuan and Chen Yuan did not notice how ambiguous their actions were.

Bai Di’s and Xue Ling’s expressions turned ugly when they saw the scene.

Especially Xue Ling. His eyes were like knives as he stared at Chen Yuan.

The merfolk also revealed subtle expressions.

Their tribe leader had been an adult for a long time, but he had no intention of finding a mate. He had been single for many years and didn’t even have a female he liked. His tribesmen had to suspect that there was something wrong with the tribe leader’s health.

Now, it seemed that perhaps there wasn’t something wrong with the leader’s health but his sexual orientation.

If the witch doctor knew the truth, he would definitely go crazy with anger…

The originally tense atmosphere was washed away by the misunderstanding between Chen Yuan and Huanhuan.

In the end, Chen Yuan chose to believe in Huanhuan.

As much as he hated to admit it, the truth was that Huanhuan was stronger than him. It wouldn’t be difficult for her to kill him.

Since she didn’t kill him, it meant she didn’t treat him as an enemy.

He said, “I can tell you about Xuan Wei, but you have to stand up first.”

Huanhuan was puzzled. “Why?”

“You’re crushing me.”

Only then did Huanhuan realize that she had been pressing against him. Their bodies were very close.

She blushed and immediately got up.

When she took two steps back, Chen Yuan stood up calmly. He rubbed his wrist which had been pressed to the ground just now. His gaze was still lingering on Huanhuan. He thought to himself, ‘This person is tall and thin, but he’s actually terrifyingly strong. I wonder what race he belongs to.’

The merfolk immediately surrounded him and asked, “Patriarch, are you alright?”

Chen Yuan waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

He stared at Huanhuan’s face. “Your name is Yu Tian?”

Huanhuan nodded. “Yes.”

Chen Yuan pointed at Bai Di. “What about him? What’s his relationship with Xuan Wei?”

Bai Di took the initiative to answer. “My name is Bai Di. I’m Xuan Wei’s brother.”

“You’re indeed brothers!” Chen Yuan sneered. He looked at Bai Di with hatred, looking especially cold.

Bai Di was silent, not inclined to explain.
