Chapter 259: Chapter 257: Realizing the Deception
“My name is Zisang, of the Grey Wolf Clan.”
“A month ago, I visited this island. I constructed this cabin. My name is carved on the beam above.”
Sally saw through the System Map that the name Zisang was indeed carved on the beam, “Uh… I thought my husband built it, quite sturdy.”
This Qing Linghuan is so unreliable. Doesn’t he know how to build a house?
“However, I left, and now you’re here, so it belongs to you,” Zisang continued.
Sally hurriedly said, “I’m just staying temporarily. Since you built this place, it should rightfully be returned to you. I was about to leave as well, so leaving a night early is no issue.” 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝔲𝔟.𝔠𝖔𝖒
Sally felt really embarrassed, so she went into the inner room to pack her things.
“You can stay. After I kill them, I will leave this place and wander. That is, if I’m still alive,” Zisang suddenly said.
Sally turned around in surprise, “You’re going to kill… who?”
“The people who came with me. They are pirates who wiped out the Grey Wolf Clan. I will have my revenge!” Zisang said, baring his teeth fiercely.
“Hmph! I knew you wouldn’t truly submit to me.” A man with red hair and golden eyes strode into the house, but his gaze turned startlingly intense when he saw Sally, sending shivers down one’s spine.
Zisang, seeing the look in his eyes, seemed to recall something, his grey eyes filled with blood, abruptly leaping forward, “Harry, you annihilated my clan. This island will be your grave!”
His mouth full of sharp teeth lunged at Harry’s neck.
“So eager to reunite with your kin, let me help you on your way.” Harry raised his hand, and a Wind Blade split Zisang open!
With his last strength, Zisang said to Sally, “Run, run now! He’s a beast!”
Sally didn’t move.
Now pregnant, especially with a divine progeny, Xiaomei’s protection was inescapable.
She would absolutely not allow her to be in any danger, even strictly monitoring her diet.
Previously Sally could eat whatever she wanted, Xiaomei wouldn’t have said a word.
“Ah, if only you could have held on a little longer,” Sally sighed and looked at Zisang with some pity. “So you want them dead, right?”
Zisang, realizing something as he looked at Sally, who remained composed even now, said, “Yes! If you can avenge me, in my next life, even as a humble blade of grass, I will repay this kindness.”
“No need, consider it your rent,” Sally replied.
Zisang died.
The lean wolf body, no longer supported by a breath of life, flattened into a piece of skin… probably that last pounce consumed all his remaining strength.
But it was for the sake of buying her a slim chance of escape.
A murderous intention slowly rose in Sally’s heart.
Two more people entered the outside, a thickly made-up woman and a fat man carrying a sword.
Seeing the situation inside the cabin, both were stunned.
However, the woman quickly fixed her gaze on Sally!
“Sally! What are you doing here?”
“Who are you?”
Sally was astonished, how could someone recognize her here?
The flamboyant woman removed her makeup, revealing a cold and proud face.
Sally recognized her, “You’re Cassie Goulding.”
Harry looked at Cassie with an unfamiliar gaze, “Where’s Lin Xuexue?”
Upon hearing this name, Sally’s lips curved slightly, “Still using that name? Are you reminiscing about your glory during the Holy War?”
Cassie’s face turned extremely ugly when she heard the mention of the Holy War, “Give me your Offspring System!”
“How would that work? It’s bound to the soul. Even if I die, you can’t have it. But, didn’t you retrieve the Offspring System from 009821? Lena has already got it, you know.”
“What 009821, whom are you talking about?” Cassie stared at Sally intently, “How did Lena get it?”
Cassie had sought out Lena before and knew she had also lost the Offspring System.
Sally looked at her, seeming truly ignorant about 009821.
Harry, feeling ignored, suddenly coughed, glanced at the wide and comfortable bed in the inner room, with its soft pink floral bedding.
“It’s getting late, no matter who is who, let’s rest first, we can talk tomorrow.”
As she spoke, she took two steps toward Sally, almost close enough to grab her.
Looking at him calmly, Sally asked, “How do you want to die?”
Harry laughed, his smile lewd and cruel, “You’ll find out when you’re lying on the bed!”
Cassie suddenly stepped back, pulling the sword-wielding fatso, who was still confused, “Harry, I’m not feeling up to it today, so I won’t entertain you. She is a Holy Mother! Whether it’s Fertility Strength or beauty, she surpasses me. If you want children, she’s more capable!”
Upon hearing this, Harry’s eyes grew more eager, as if he wanted to strip Sally bare and press her beneath him to do as he pleased right away…
Sally looked at Cassie with eyes as cold as ice, “You’re seeking death as well. I’ll comply.”
“First get past Harry. He’s at the Spiritual Peak, and you, a female, even if also at the Spirit Rank, can’t beat him.” Cassie shut the room door.
But before she could turn and walk away, a shrill, miserable scream came from the room.
By the sound of it, it was Harry.
The fatso with the knife immediately rushed into the room.
The next moment, his head was sliced off, and his headless body flew out, crashing into Cassie.
Cassie stumbled, then was sprayed with blood from the headless, neck-bleeding fatso. The knife in his hand happened to slash across her abdomen.
A scream of extreme terror rang out…
Sally came out of the house spotlessly clean, not a drop of blood on her.
She looked at Cassie, seemingly frail and easily pushed over, with some surprise. She remembered Cassie’s talent was not low; she had killed many during the Holy War.
Lena had mentioned that without the Offspring System, the talents vanished too. Which meant Cassie was now just an ordinary female.
The last pirate, hearing the noise, also came over.
Sally conjured three Flame Arrows with her Fire Elemental Power, shooting them toward the pirate…
The pirate, gifted with the Earth Element, instantly erected an earthen wall to block.
He then escaped underground…
But Sally had promised Zisang to kill these people, which meant she wouldn’t leave any loose ends.
The Flame Arrows followed the pirate into the ground.
Soon, the pirate was pierced by the Flame Arrows, ejected from the earth, and eventually fell onto a huge sea rock, smashing into a mess.
Sally looked at Cassie.
Cassie wiped the blood off her face, her appearance wretched, but her eyes still held pride, looking down on Sally with disdain, “Don’t be so smug. Without the Offspring System, Frans will discard you like worn-out shoes, too.”
“Busy? I’ll ask Frans about it tomorrow. However, you won’t be around to hear the answer,” Sally said as she looked at her stomach.
The knife in the fatso’s hand had nearly chopped Cassie in half.
And it was only now that Cassie realized the blood on her body was not just the fatso’s but mostly her own.
“Sally! I curse you to a death worse than mine! Even if I become a lonely ghost, I will haunt you and see you meet a fate a hundred times more miserable than mine.”
“You’re about to die; leave some dignity to yourself. But tell me, why didn’t you stay with your kids? Why did you join a pirate lair instead?” Sally asked.
Cassie froze suddenly, “Children?”
Sally walked up to her, kicked away the headless corpse of the fatso, crouched down, and saw that the wound was beyond healing.
“Yes. You’re their Mother Beast, especially the males that joined you in the Holy War. Now that they no longer have a Father Beast, shouldn’t you, as their Mother Beast, take care of them?”
“Only males without offspring can join a Holy War. Are you mocking me for not fulfilling my promise to leave them offspring, or are you genuinely clueless?” Cassie spat out a mouthful of blood.
Perhaps remembering her own males and offspring, Cassie’s face showed a hint of confusion.
And in that confusion, her life also came to an end.
Because of Cassie’s words, Sally had an epiphany.
Right! Males with offspring couldn’t join the Holy War. That meant Lena had been deceiving her when she said Angel’s Father Beast had joined the Holy War.
From the beginning, Lena had never told her the truth.
And because Zi Qi had raised Xiaoqi, she had mistaken Xiaoqi for Zi Qi’s child, overlooking this fact.
“No wonder Frans told me not to trust the Fox Clan, to stay as far away from the Fox Clan as possible…”
Indeed, not heeding the Beast Husband’s words leads to trouble at hand.
