Beauty and the Beasts

Chapter 328: Bai Qingqing’s World

The beastmen were elated. Now that the ape king became more formidable, their City of Beastmen would be safer.

“So you’ve leveled up to a three-striped beastman. No wonder you dare to come out now,” Parker said sarcastically with nary a change in his expression.

Upon hearing the footsteps from behind, Curtis turned around and cast a warning glance at Parker, who then pulled Bai Qingqing to a stop.

“There are too many beastmen. Let’s just stay here.”

“Okay.”

Upon seeing Curtis, the ape king’s countenance changed. Though, he very quickly calmed down. Holding up a strand of curly brown hair, he said, “I’m going to expose Bai Qingqing’s true identity today. She’s not a beastman, but a monster!”

His words caused an uproar among the beastmen.

Behind, Bai Qingqing’s countenance instantly changed. With her body stiffened, she stared at the ape king with widened eyes.

How did the ape king find out about her identity? Did he accidentally spill out the truth when it was his intention to malign her? Or…

Bai Qingqing didn’t dare to verbalize the second speculation in her head.

Curtis’s gaze turned cold, and his body slithered a great distance forward. But there were too many beastmen in front of him. Even though those beastmen were fearful of him and yearned to give way, there wasn’t any space for them to do so.

As the ape king raised his hand, the strand of hair in his hand floated in the air. Wisps of green, white, blue, and green “smoke” emanated from the strand of hair, and it became increasingly smoky around the ape king.

Gradually, the “smoke” got so intense it blurred out everything.

The color of blood instantly drained from Bai Qingqing’s face which had flushed from drinking the wine.

Others might not be able to recognize what that was, but she could tell at one glance that that was modern architecture!

Weren’t those grayish-white rectangular blocks buildings? There were also various dark “balls of smoke” drifting upwards, which resembled the roads and cars of the modern ages no matter how she looked at it.

As the beastmen increased in numbers, Bai Qingqing was knocked into from time to time. Yet she was numb and showed no response. Parker spread his arm to hold her, while Winston stood on the other side of her.

There were quite a few beastmen standing where Bai Qingqing was. When the beastmen realized it was her the ape king was talking about, they couldn’t help sizing her up. With a probing gaze, they looked towards the ape king for confirmation.

The crowd of beasts in front were squeezed into forming a wave by Curtis, yet the latter found it difficult to move ahead. In his frustration, Curtis swung his snake’s tail and sent more than ten beastmen flying.

Now that he finally found an effective way to advance, Curtis felt slightly better, easily managing to squeeze towards the stone platform.

Just then, the images surrounding the ape king became clearer. Bai Qingqing, wearing shorts and a cotton T-shirt, also appeared in those images. She was chatting merrily with several females who were similarly pretty.

As he used his mental power to control the image, the ape king raised his hand and indicated for Curtis to look.

“Aren’t you curious where Bai Qingqing came from?”

The ape king’s words succeeded in making Curtis halt in his footsteps and made him look towards the conjured image distractedly.

“My goodness, what place is that? There are so many females.”

“The females are all so pretty.”

The crowd of beastmen got excited. The males around Bai Qingqing were staring at her with a glow in their eyes. If it weren’t for Winston and Parker’s protection, they would have squashed her into a meat patty.

Up till this point, Bai Qingqing’s mind remained in a blank state.

Is this the mental power of the ape tribe?

How can he be so powerful?

If it weren’t for the fact that this world was way too backward, and she had never told anyone about her background or that she had come from Earth, she would have thought that this was a holography technique that was even more advanced than the technology on Earth.

“That’s all?” Curtis’s upper body transformed into human form as he said in an icy tone.

He was indeed very curious about Snow’s past. But he could ask her himself, or just bring her to that place to take a look.
