I Transmigrated as a Villainess to Raise Babies, and My Beast Husbands Are Fighting Madly Over Me!-Chapter 92: Find Her As Soon As Possible
"Did any of you see which way the Young Clan Leader and his group went?"
The male beastmen with him all shook their heads.
Ma Qing’s expression darkened.
He had brought everyone to this part of the forest precisely because it was supposed to be relatively safe.
But just a moment ago, he had discovered traces of a large Mutant Beast in the woods.
Under these circumstances, it was best for them to stick together.
Otherwise, encountering a Mutant Beast alone would be extremely dangerous.
Ma Qing shifted into his beast form and let out several long howls into the forest, hoping Feiyan and the others would hear and respond.
"Let’s split into two teams and search separately."
"Right."
Qiao Xixi and the others didn’t hear Ma Qing’s calls.
Jin Ling had led them to a part of the forest where the vegetation was relatively low.
Jin Ling suddenly stopped and looked toward the base of a tree.
"Xixi, there’s a Long-eared Rabbit Beast over there."
Qiao Xixi followed his gaze and, sure enough, spotted a dusty gray Long-eared Rabbit Beast.
She gently patted Qiao Qiao.
"Qiaoqiao, go. Mommy and Jin Ling will block the Long-eared Rabbit Beast’s path. You go and catch it."
Qiao Qiao showed no fear at all. She quickly jumped off Jin Ling’s back and transformed into a small snow fox.
Qiao Xixi also dismounted, shifting into her beast form and moving to the other side.
The Long-eared Rabbit Beast seemed to sense the danger. It tensed, ready to bolt.
Seizing the opportunity, Qiao Qiao pounced.
"YIP!"
She aimed to sink her teeth into the Long-eared Rabbit Beast’s neck.
But the Long-eared Rabbit Beast was also incredibly fast. Just as Qiao Qiao pounced, it darted in the other direction.
Qiao Qiao chased after it, her short little legs pumping furiously.
The Long-eared Rabbit Beast tried to escape in several directions, but its path was always blocked. Finally, in a panicked frenzy, it slammed into a tree and died on the spot.
Qiao Qiao rushed over and prodded its limp body with her little paws before turning to look at Qiao Xixi excitedly.
"Mommy, it’s dead! I caught it!"
Qiao Xixi walked over and nuzzled her little face with her nose.
"Great job, Qiaoqiao."
Watching the happy mother and daughter, Jin Ling’s spirits lifted as well.
But a moment later, his molten-gold eyes darkened. He charged toward Qiao Xixi and her daughter, his sharp tiger claws extended.
Startled, Qiao Xixi instinctively pulled Qiao Qiao into a tight hug.
Meanwhile, Ma Qing had followed Feiyan’s scent and found the father-son duo.
Qiao Ang had his body low to the ground, his rear in the air and tail wagging furiously as he dug at something in the dirt.
Feiyan simply watched from the side, offering a piece of advice now and then.
"Earth Mole Beasts are cunning. They excel at burrowing. To catch one, you first have to block all the exits to its den."
Qiao Ang began to dig with even more vigor, determined to block all the tunnel entrances with dirt.
No sooner had Qiao Ang finished blocking an entrance than Feiyan swept a pawful of fallen leaves into another opening.
He spat out a small burst of flame, setting the leaves alight.
Thick smoke from the burning leaves billowed into the tunnel.
Qiao Ang quickly ran to wait by another opening where smoke had begun to emerge.
A moment later, an Earth Mole Beast half the size of his head shot out.
Qiao Ang brought a paw down on the Earth Mole Beast’s head.
The Earth Mole Beast was knocked unconscious.
"I got it!"
Qiao Ang excitedly snatched up his prey in his mouth and trotted happily over to Feiyan. He looked up at him with wide, light-brown eyes, blinking in anticipation.
Feiyan lowered his head and nuzzled his son’s.
"You’re very skilled, Qiao Ang."
Having received the praise he craved, Qiao Ang was so happy his big tail shot up and began to wag furiously.
"Young Clan Leader, we finally found you! We discovered traces of a large Mutant Beast in the forest earlier and were worried you might have run into it."
Feiyan looked at Ma Qing, his narrow eyes darkening.
"Did you inform Qiao Xixi and the others?"
"Not yet. We aren’t familiar with their scents, so we came to find you first, Young Clan Leader."
"Hurry, find Qiao Xixi! It’ll be extremely dangerous for them if they run into a large Mutant Beast."
’Jin Ling is strong, but protecting both Qiao Xixi and Qiao Qiao could leave him vulnerable.’
Feiyan had Qiao Ang jump onto his back, then raced in the direction of Qiao Xixi’s group.
With a furious roar, Jin Ling slammed his tiger claws into the Mutated Elephant Beast that had just charged out of the woods.
The Mutated Elephant Beast was at least three or four times Jin Ling’s size. It towered before Qiao Xixi and her daughter like a mountain.
Although Jin Ling’s strike was charged with electricity, the Mutated Elephant Beast had a coarse, thick hide. After a brief moment of paralysis, it furiously launched an attack on Jin Ling.
"Xixi, get Qiaoqiao somewhere safe!"
"Okay! You be careful!"
Qiao Xixi clutched Qiao Qiao and ran.
But she hadn’t gotten far when another Mutated Elephant Beast burst from the trees.
The color drained from Qiao Xixi’s face.
Terrified, Qiao Qiao clutched tightly to Qiao Xixi’s clothes.
Qiao Xixi pulled out the Dull Liquid, intending to spray it on the Mutated Elephant Beast.
But the beast was enormous. With one sweep of its long trunk, it knocked down a large tree right behind her.
Qiao Xixi was forced to retreat, and the Dull Liquid missed its target.
All Qiao Xixi could do was run.
But she was no match for the Mutated Elephant Beast’s speed.
The Mutated Elephant Beast swept its trunk, cutting off Qiao Xixi’s escape. A branch struck her on the back, causing her to stagger, and Qiao Qiao flew from her arms.
Horror washed over Qiao Xixi’s face.
"Qiaoqiao!"
The Mutated Elephant Beast had already raised its trunk high, poised to bring it crashing down on Qiao Qiao.
Gritting her teeth, Qiao Xixi scrambled up from the ground and lunged forward, gathering Qiao Qiao into her arms.
"Qiaoqiao, run!"
Qiao Xixi threw Qiao Qiao clear with all her might.
As the massive trunk began its descent, Qiao Xixi pulled out the Dull Liquid with a trembling hand and sprayed it. Then, she covered her head and dove for cover beneath a fallen log.
CRASH!
A deafening roar echoed.
Qiao Xixi squeezed her eyes shut, but the expected impact never came.
She opened her eyes in astonishment. A snow-white fox stood protectively in front of her.
Feiyan glanced back at Qiao Xixi.
"If you’re alright, get up and get the cub out of here."
The moment the words left his mouth, Feiyan lunged at the Mutated Elephant Beast.
Ma Qing ordered the other males to help while he carried Qiao Ang over to Qiao Xixi.
"Qiao Xixi, we need to leave, now!"
"Right."
"Mommy!"
Qiao Qiao ran back to Qiao Xixi’s side.
She looked back to see Jin Ling, Feiyan, and the others locked in a desperate battle with the Mutated Elephant Beasts. The fight was a stalemate, with no clear winner.
"Jin Ling, don’t drag out the fight!"
Jin Ling let out a tiger’s roar in acknowledgment.
"Right! You guys go, quickly!"
Qiao Xixi clutched her cub and followed Ma Qing away from the fray.
Feiyan glanced back at Qiao Xixi one last time before spitting a fireball to force the Mutated Elephant Beast back.
"These two Mutated Elephant Beasts are star-ranked. A prolonged fight is a bad idea. Force them back, then we retreat," Feiyan said to the other males.
"Right."
Just as Qiao Xixi and the others made it back to the spot where they had first separated, they saw Sunxiao approaching with Qiao Lie.
"Xixi."
"Sunxiao, there are two Mutated Elephant Beasts back there! Jin Ling and the others are fighting them, you have to go help!"
Sunxiao refused flatly.
"No."
Qiao Xixi stared at him in astonishment.
