Chapter 201: Chapter 201
Jin Tong instantly teleported, recklessly blocking head-on!
A Golden Crystal Beast faced a Purple Crystal Beast, yet they seemed evenly matched!
Jin Tong’s pride cracked a little. Throughout his life, he had always been known as the most talented Golden Dragon. His talent was strong, and his progress was especially fast. He had almost never encountered an obstacle in his advancement. At a young age, he had become a Golden Crystal Beast, thus becoming the finest male Beastman of his generation, without equal!

However, what’s wrong with this situation? Am I being shown up this quickly? This snake Beastman before me looks about my age; even if he’s older, it can’t be by much. But I’m Jin Jing rank! And he’s Purple Crystal rank! A Jin Jing like me is actually fighting to a draw with a Purple Crystal?!!
After one exchange, the two slightly separated, then quickly clashed a second time.
The Golden Crystal Beast’s battle stirred up fierce winds!
Xi Qing and Bei Ji had their hands crossed in front of them. Even so, they were still pushed back quite a bit by the wind.
Indeed, the difference in strength is too great; even if we wanted to help, we couldn’t.
The wind swept through the forest, snapping the nearby trees.
Xi Qing and Bei Ji decisively took a few steps back and pressed against the rock wall behind them.
"Incredible!" Bei Ji exclaimed in shock.
Xi Qing also felt the impact, his small face full of astonishment and shock. "That Sen Ran Beastman, he’s very strong."
Bei Ji, clutching the nearby rock wall, raised his head to watch the two Beastmen fighting earnestly.
"Third Brother," Bei Ji speculated, "he’s a Sen Ran Beastman just like us, and he even looks very similar to Big Brother. Do you think he could be our father?"
Our father? Xi Qing’s gaze turned slightly somber. "Bei Ji, do you want a father?"
Bei Ji fell into thought. Among the four brothers, Bei Ji was the luckiest—he had never had his face burned, nor had he been sold. So he still retained a certain innocence.
Bei Ji said, "I always used to think, if we had a father, we would have meat to eat, and Mother wouldn’t have to work so hard..."
As he spoke, Bei Ji shook his head. "But when we needed him, he wasn’t there. Now we’ve all grown up; we can even try to kill the Red Crystal Bug. What do we need a father for now?"
Xi Qing said nothing more. When there was no food, he wasn’t there. During the forest fires, he wasn’t there. And when we were wandering and homeless, he was still absent. As a child, I indeed envied other cubs who had fathers. But now we’ve all grown up; we can support ourselves and take care of ourselves. What do we need a father for now?
Bei Ji earnestly said, "Then let’s not bother. I only recognize Mother anyway!"
Indeed, in this matter, the four brothers’ views were strikingly uniform. A snake Beastman only needs his mother; what would a snake Beastman need a father for?
The intense wind continued to sweep through. It cut through trees, stones, and even the mountain ridge!
Suddenly, She Wang looked fiercely toward Xi Qing and Bei Ji’s direction!
They saw that the cliff they were leaning on had begun to crumble due to the wind! A huge chunk of rock was falling!
Xi Qing and Bei Ji sensed something, and when they looked up at the immense rock, they were terrified.
Xi Qing grabbed Bei Ji’s hand, and they started running.
At the critical moment, She Wang, who was fighting with Jin Tong, suddenly withdrew his hand.
Jin Tong hadn’t even reacted yet when he saw She Wang making a beeline for Xi Qing and Bei Ji with incredible speed!
Jin Tong came to his senses and ran towards Xi Qing, yelling, "Xi Qing, Bei Ji!"
However, Jin Tong’s speed was no match for She Wang with the Lightning Special Ability. He was already too late.
Xi Qing was pulling Bei Ji along, desperately running forward when suddenly Xi Qing tripped and fell, and Bei Ji tumbled to the ground with him.
The huge rock came crashing down!
"Third Brother!!" Bei Ji shouted.
"Bei Ji, cover your head!!"
Xi Qing quickly turned around to shield Bei Ji with his body as Bei Ji lay face down, holding his head.
I promised Mother I’d protect Bei Ji. I’m his Third Brother; I always keep my word! It’s just... we haven’t seen Mother for a long time and really miss her... We don’t want to die. We can’t bear to leave with regrets.
The two frightened brothers clutched their heads, waiting for what felt like an eternity, but the intense pain never came.
It took a while for Xi Qing and Bei Ji to realize what had happened. When the two cubs looked up, they saw a tall, dark purple Sen Ran Beastman holding up the massive stone with one hand.
His eyes were cold as he watched the two cubs on the ground. The serpent’s tongue flickered lightly. HISS. HISS.
"Is there a problem?"
He was tall and slender, yet he exuded an indescribable sense of security, as stable as a mountain. Looking down at them, for a brief instant, in the eyes of Xi Qing and Bei Ji, the Sen Ran Beastman seemed to loom larger than life.
"We’re okay," replied Xi Qing and Bei Ji as they stood up. Their hearts pounded furiously.
By that time, Jin Tong had also arrived, anxiously saying, "Xi Qing, Bei Ji! Are you two all right?!"
"Uncle Jin! We’re fine."
Xi Qing and Bei Ji ran towards Jin Tong.
She Wang, holding up the huge rock, took a few steps and then casually tossed it aside.
Xi Qing and Bei Ji’s view of She Wang had completely changed after this incident.
This Sen Ran Beastman—he’s incredibly cool!! So impressive!! He’s truly powerful!!!
She Wang glanced indifferently at Jin Tong and the two cubs.
These two cubs have some skills, managing to bond with a male Jin Jing. It’s perfectly fine by me to have another male help raise these cubs.
So, without saying more, he headed straight for the green Golden Crystal Insect.
Jin Tong crouched down to check Xi Qing and Bei Ji’s injuries, now not bothering to compete with the snake Beastman.
Forget it. Considering he saved the two young snake cubs, I’ll let that snake Beastman have the Golden Insect Crystal.
The green insect was still struggling, but She Wang didn’t give it another chance.
Thus, under the repressed gazes of Xi Qing and Bei Ji, filled with a touch of admiration, the cold-blooded snake Beastman’s hand easily penetrated the insect’s armor, crushed its vital organs, and finally stripped the Gold Beast Crystal from its forehead before departing quickly.
