Chapter 583: Chapter 584: What Madness Is This
Yali was taken aback, he looked at his mother, not knowing what madness had come over her.
"Mom, mom?"
As soon as he spoke, Ruhua lunged at him with a savage look on her face, gripping Yali’s neck tightly. Her whitened fingertips clearly showed she was using her full strength.
Yali’s eyes bulged, his face turning red from lack of air.
He had just woken up and was still weak, unable to pry even one of Ruhua’s fingers off. Furthermore, although his mouth was wide open, he couldn’t make a sound.
He could only helplessly feel the oxygen in his lungs depleting, the despair of suffocation closing in.
Ruhua seemed to revel in his suffering, as she suddenly started laughing eerily.
"Ayue, what good does your beauty do? In the end, aren’t you going to die by my hand? Hah, you dare to threaten me! Your cub is merely adopted, what right does he have to be the young master? Only my cub can be the young master, and he will be the ruler in the future! Hahaha..."
"Ayue, even if you are devoted to the ruler, it is useless! He saw you in bed with another beastman, yet still, he did not want to believe you."
"Hah, you think knowing about my affair with Luo Bu allows you to threaten me? What if your cub becomes the young master first? Abu fed your cub the Heart Devouring Grass, effectively ensuring that he will never awaken his superpower. Ultimately, won’t the position of the young master still belong to me and Abu’s cub? Hahaha...hahaha..."
Yali’s pupils gradually dilated, his face filled with both extreme discomfort and shock!
He couldn’t believe that his usually gentle mother could be so terrifying!
He couldn’t believe that he was actually not his father’s cub, but a priest’s cub?
All sorts of information bombarded his brain. Coupled with the suffocation, Yali felt like he was about to pass out again.
"What the hell are you doing?!"
Luo Bu almost spilled the bowl of water in his hand. He hurriedly approached and gave Ruhua a firm kick in the waist.
He then quickly moved to support Yali, who was about to faint, "Young master, are you alright?" 𝓃𝓸𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
Yali lay weakly in Luo Bu’s arms, his throat hurting too much to speak. He clung tightly to Luo Bu’s hand, as though trying to convey a message.
Luo Bu comforted him, patting him on the back. "Don’t talk if it hurts to speak. Have some water and rest, don’t be afraid!"
After calming Yali down, Luo Bu stood up with a grim expression and walked over to Ruhua. She was now in pain, curled up where he had kicked her earlier.
"What exactly are you doing? That’s your cub! What do you want to do to him?!"
Ruhua slowly lifted her head with evident difficulty, a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
Upon spotting Luo Bu, she chuckled, "Why, has the Lord come here? Are you here to protect Ayue?"
Luo Bu felt utterly confused. With a furrowed brow, he growled, "Have you gone mad? What are you rambling about? Who’s Ayue? Who’s the lord? You’ve got the wrong person!"
Ruhua wiped the blood from her mouth and shakily struggled to her feet. She pointed at Yali on the stone bed, her face filled with resentment as she shrieked.
"Where do I fall short of her? What does she have besides her looks? Why do you want her cub to be the young master? Her cub is actually adopted, adopted... Your cub with her died long ago! Do you know that? It was buried by her under a big tree at the foot of the Back Mountain!"
