As though he knew exactly what Curtis was thinking, just as the images were rapidly spinning following the timeline, the ape king declared, “I dare guarantee that this is your only chance to see her past.”

Curtis stared at the ape king without moving.

When the images spun again, other than Bai Qingqing, the world around her underwent a drastic change. Because there was a tree branch on the ground now, Bai Qingqing was tripped by it.

After crawling to her feet, she realized that her surroundings weren’t the same anymore, bringing about a panicked expression on her face.

And then later, she was rescued by Parker.

No one was more shocked than Parker to see this.

He grabbed Bai Qingqing’s hand and clasped it. He gazed deeply at her but asked her nothing. Bai Qingqing quietly held his hand back.

The images were still continuing, but Bai Qingqing didn’t dare to look anymore. She explained frantically, “I didn’t mean to deceive you guys. I was very scared.”

Parker held Bai Qingqing’s shoulder firmly. In a tone that made clear his anger at her cowardice, he said, “Stupid! Couldn’t you have told me you were scared?”

Bai Qingqing felt her eyes sting.

Parker’s heart softened, and his tone grew gentler. “You have nothing to fear with me around. So what if you aren’t a beastman? You’re still my female.”

The tears Bai Qingqing had been forcing back fell down her cheeks, the panic in her heart replaced by a touched feeling. She opened her arms and circled them around Parker’s waist, burying her face in his chest and rubbing against it.

Next, the images of the flood were shown, followed by the drought, until now.

Just as the beastmen thought that it was going to end, the ape king suddenly focused his gaze, and the images started flashing by rapidly until they became a blur and only the rough outlines could be seen.

The ape king’s facial muscles were tensed up, and large beads of perspiration formed on his skin as he managed to utter out with much difficulty. “This is the future!”

“Bai Qingqing must be a demon. Wherever she goes, she brings calamity with her!”

As if to confirm what he was saying, the blurry scenery and things in the images started to shake violently… the mountains crumbled, the ground cracked, and each and every single one of the stone houses in the City of Beastmen collapsed.

The two peaks of the Camel Hump Valley were blasted by the fire-like lava that was spilling into all directions. With the blazing fire all around, it resembled hell.

That red glow was reflected in the eyes of the ape king, as well as all the other beastmen.

Bai Qingqing froze in shock. Would she really… bring about calamities? Was she the one who caused all the natural disasters this year?

No, this is superstition! The ape king must have manipulated these images!

Curtis also shifted backward due to the glow of the fire, but as he quickly realized that this was very disadvantageous to Snow, he instantly tossed his tail at the ape king.

The images disintegrated before vanishing.

“Kill her! Only then will the calamities end!” Before the ape king finished his sentence, he spat out a mouthful of blood. And this was after he tried to stop the snake’s tail using his mental power.

Curtis, however, abruptly stopped the attack and turned around to look in Bai Qingqing’s direction.

Revealing their ferocious manner, the beastmen charged in Bai Qingqing’s direction. Even the tiger beastmen whom Winston was in charge of were no exception.

The most important thing to beastmen was their partners. When their partners were faced with a threat, no one could stop them from getting rid of a lurking peril.

Just like Rosa back then—when she harmed a female, even the old tiger king’s followers didn’t stand out to help her.

Curtis flew straight from the platform, his gigantic snake body knocking a big batch of beastmen off their feet, speedily slithering towards Bai Qingqing above the beastmen’s heads.

Even though they were shielding her with their own bodies, Parker and Winston couldn’t ensure her safety.

A loud and sonorous eagle screech was heard from the skies. The delighted Parker raised Bai Qingqing high up, ignoring the attacks of the beastmen surrounding them.
