Chapter 170: Chapter 168: Exposed

Although Chloe Callahan found it strange that he was asking all these questions, she also felt there was nothing she couldn’t say.

Perhaps she could even use Nolan Sterling to avenge herself.

That female called Luna Sutton not only sullied her name but also sent several Beast Husbands to hunt her and Caleb Manning down. How could she swallow her pride without a fierce revenge?

She sighed softly, her eyes glistening with tears, her voice gentle yet carrying a hint of grievance.

She recounted how she quarreled with Caleb Manning and left The Winged Tiger Tribe in a fit of pique, was secretly followed by Pearl Vance, mistakenly entered Cragfall, and was pushed off a cliff by Pearl Vance, falling into The Wolf Tribe’s forbidden area, and all that ensued afterward.

Though she didn’t know there was a Salt Lake in The Wolf Tribe’s forbidden area, she could sense a hidden secret within.

Otherwise, The Wolf Tribe wouldn’t be so tense, even resorting to silencing people.

"The Wolf Tribe’s forbidden area?"

Nolan Sterling suddenly leaned forward, nine fox tails spreading out like a screen, "At the bottom of Cragfall?"

"Yes... I was secretly pushed off the cliff by Pearl Vance. Fortunately, there was an Umbraflow at the bottom, and I was swept to the shore by the current and rescued by a beastman from The Wolf Tribe."

Chloe Callahan’s voice trembled, and Kian Sterling’s face flashed in her mind. Looking at Nolan Sterling before her, she felt they bore a slight resemblance.

Though not identical, they looked at least sixty percent similar, and both were Nine-Tailed White Foxes...

Could it be...

Was there a special relationship between the two?

She was startled in her heart, but her face remained pitiful: "Your Highness, the beastman who saved me is also a Nine-Tailed White Fox like you, and he resembles you greatly..."

As soon as she finished speaking.

Nolan Sterling’s fox eyes suddenly narrowed, a barely noticeable coldness flashing in his gaze.

He slowly picked up a ceramic wine cup, gently swirling it, the purple-red wine inside rippling, reflecting his mocking smile.

"Oh? A Nine-Tailed White Fox? And he looks like me?"

His voice remained lazy, yet carried a touch of coldness: "So interesting, a fox has actually infiltrated The Wolf Tribe."

Oh, Third Brother, I hope it’s not you. Otherwise, don’t blame your big brother for being ruthless...

Nolan Sterling gripped the ceramic wine cup slightly harder, and it shattered instantly, the purple-red wine spilling everywhere, soaking his garments.

But he didn’t care, his mind filled with the Nine-Tailed Fox in The Wolf Tribe, wondering if it was indeed his third brother, Kian Sterling.

Kian Sterling was born to the favored Concubine Zella of the father king, bright and talented, very much winning the father king’s favor.

At one point, he even wanted to groom Kian Sterling to become the next Beast King.

Clearly, Nolan Sterling was the Crown Prince of Beast King City; the position of Beast King should belong to him.

And not to Kian Sterling, the third son.

Unable to alter the father king’s decisions, he could only secretly plot to eliminate Kian.

He thought he had already killed Kian, but now it seemed... it wasn’t so!

Chloe Callahan jumped in fright when Nolan Sterling unexpectedly crushed the ceramic wine cup, instinctively retreating.

Nolan Sterling’s reaction was very unusual, indicating that the Nine-Tailed White Fox in The Wolf Tribe indeed had some special connection to him.

However, what did that have to do with her?

Soon, two female slaves cautiously entered the hall, cleaning up the ceramic fragments and spilled purple-red wine on the ground.

They dared not breathe loudly.

Then retreated silently.

Nolan Sterling’s eyes flashed with coldness, his glare like a knife over Chloe Callahan, his voice deep and dangerous: "Are you sure, the Nine-Tailed White Fox who saved you, resembles me?"

Chloe Callahan was frightened by his demeanor, her whole body recoiling slightly, her face turning pale.

There was no way she dared to conceal anything, so she spoke truthfully: "Yes... yes, Your Highness. He indeed looks very much like you, especially those fox eyes; they are almost identical. Oh, right, when he fought, nine tails would erupt into flames, seemingly purple-red flames."

She had fainted at that time, but she wasn’t entirely unaware. She had awoken during the process, witnessing several people surrounding Caleb Manning, then fainted from fear again.

"Ha... purple-red flames? The innate fire of the Nine-Tailed White Fox Clan, so Third Brother, it really is you."

Nolan Sterling’s gaze instantly turned icy cold, a cold smile on his lips.

Chloe Callahan, frightened by his sudden change, didn’t dare to make a sound, secretly regretting mentioning the Nine-Tailed White Fox.

Nolan Sterling slowly walked to the window, his nine fox tails gently swaying behind him, like a nest of venomous snakes poised to strike.

He gazed out the window, lost in thought.

After a moment.

He turned to Chloe Callahan, his voice low, weaving with menace: "Do you know the identity of that Nine-Tailed White Fox?"

Chloe Callahan shook her head in confusion, "Your Highness, though he saved me, I only saw him twice. There wasn’t much interaction, so I’m not aware of his identity or anything else."

Nolan Sterling chuckled lightly, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes: "Unsure? In that case, step back for now, and prepare well for tonight’s banquet. You need not concern yourself with anything else, and refrain from asking further questions. Under no circumstances should you mention that you have seen the Nine-Tailed White Fox, understood?"

As he spoke, his fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, his tone carrying a strong warning and sense of danger.

Chloe Callahan shivered in fright and quickly nodded: "Rest assured, Your Highness, I know nothing."

Seeing her so sensible, Nolan Sterling nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand, and let her leave.

Chloe Callahan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not daring to linger here any longer, and hurriedly withdrew.

...

Meanwhile, in the dense forest near the Cliffbottom Salt Lake.

Luna Sutton was holding Caleb Manning in his tiger cub form, her heart in turmoil as she headed towards the salt fields.

She pondered how to explain to Corbin Crowley and the others.

After all, just last night, the five of them had combined efforts to beat Caleb into regressing into a cub. Now that they know she saved Caleb, wouldn’t that add fuel to the fire?

Just as she reached the vicinity of the salt fields, Corbin Crowley caught her, staring coldly at her, his silver eyes swirling with an impending storm, his voice deep and dangerous: "What are you carrying in your arms?"

Luna Sutton instinctively wrapped the tiger cub tighter in the animal hide, calmly stating: "Oh, I found it in the bushes. It looks like it was just born and I have no idea where the mother tiger went. It looked pitiful, so I brought it back."

Her expression seemed as though she had indeed picked up a random tiger cub, as if she didn’t know it was Caleb Manning.

"A tiger cub?"

Corbin Crowley squinted his eyes, his gaze piercing straight at the bundle in her arms, his voice derisive, "Since when have you become so kind-hearted?"

He immediately recognized Caleb Manning in his regressed cub form. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

To think she really picked him up, this foolish female, does she even know what she’s got?

Luna Sutton thought to herself, of course I know, isn’t this the regressed form of Caleb Manning?

This man is loyal and righteous. If I raise him, even when he regains his memory, I doubt he would repay kindness with enmity.

He might even become a weapon in my hands.

He’s definitely of great use.

Of course, she wasn’t about to voice those thoughts.

She batted her lashes, playing innocent: "Kind-hearted or not, I just saw it as pitiful and picked it up casually. I can’t just leave it to die, right?"

Corbin Crowley sneered, a glint of danger flashing in his silver eyes: "Casually picked it up? You’ve got a big heart."

After speaking, he reached out and roughly grabbed the hide bundle from her arms, his actions making Luna Sutton’s brow twitch.

"Hey! What are you doing!"

Luna Sutton instinctively tried to take it back, but was immediately halted by Corbin Crowley’s cold gaze.

"What am I doing?"

Corbin Crowley snorted coldly, flinging the tiger cub several meters away with a toss.

The cub traced an arc in the air and landed heavily on the ground, letting out a feeble whimper.

"Corbin!"

Angry and anxious, she stomped her foot, her heart seething. She had saved Caleb Manning’s life with great difficulty, and this foolish man just tossed him like that, nearly killing him.

She was about to rush over to pick him up.

Corbin Crowley had already grabbed her wrist, pulling her in front of him, his voice low and dangerous: "Since you have so much energy to pick up tigers, why not use it elsewhere."

With that, he swung her onto his shoulder and marched briskly towards the cave.

This foolish female, if she doesn’t get disciplined for a day, she’ll undo the roof.

While he couldn’t lay a hand on her, a harsh punishment wouldn’t go amiss.

As for how to punish...

Ha, obviously by exhausting her so she has no energy for anything else.

Luna Sutton felt her stomach churn, feeling nauseated from the jostling, gritting her teeth she said: "Corbin, put me down, what right do you have to throw away the little tiger I picked up?"

Corbin Crowley snorted, not breaking his stride: "Your little tiger? Luna, have you forgotten whose female you are?"

"What does this have to do with whose female I am? Are you really so possessive that you’d be jealous of a little tiger?"

Seeing Corbin heading toward the cave, she knew exactly what he intended, her heart skipped a beat.

After being exhausted by Kian Sterling all night last night, if Corbin were to have his way with her again, she’d really not be able to get up.

Her struggles became more intense, but Corbin’s grip was like iron, futile against her efforts.

Defeated in her struggle, Luna Sutton resorted to shouting: "Help, someone is forcibly taking a female!"

Her yell made the veins on Corbin’s forehead throb and startled all the beastmen working in the salt field.
