After I Dumped 7 Beast Husbands and Ran

After the IV drip was finished, Hu Bai pulled out the needle himself. He watched blood well up on the back of his hand before pressing a cotton ball to it to stop the bleeding.

The Male Fox Beastman rose from the stone bed.

Just then, more Beastmen arrived at the cave, a place that had seen no visitors for years.

Hu Bai stepped out of the cave and was unsurprised to see Hu Li and her family.

There were only ten females in all of Stone Village. As someone born and raised there, he was bound to know a little about them, whether he wanted to or not.

Hu Li was a vindictive female. Besides, his family and hers had already clashed more than once over the past two days.

Wearing a flimsy Beast Skin Skirt, Hu Bai looked up at the crowd of uninvited guests and asked, ”What are you doing at my home?”

Hu Li crossed her arms, her eyes raking over Hu Bai.

’No matter how many times I look at him, he’s undeniably handsome. Even as damaged goods, he’s still the best-looking male in Stone Village.’

’No wonder Fox Zi is so obsessed with him.’

’But since I have something as useful as a Breakup Fruit, why should I hand such a handsome male over to Fox Zi? If I take possession of Hu Bai myself, won’t I be able to torment him however I want in the future?’

’I’ll just make this pretty male my tenth Beast Husband!’

”You lot, restrain him!” Hu Li ordered her Beast Husbands.

Hu Li had nine Beast Husbands, and four of them rushed forward. Several were Beast Warriors who bore Beast Patterns!

”What are you trying to do?!” Hu Bai struggled as they forcefully seized his arms and legs, pinning him against the stone wall.

Hu Li walked closer step by step, casually tossing the dried Breakup Fruit in her hand.

”Hu Bai, you’re a Fox Beastman who has never awakened, not even a Beast Warrior. You should just stop struggling.”

A male Beastman shoved Hu Bai’s head down. Hu Bai glared furiously at Hu Li, ”What exactly are you trying to do? Let me go!”

”What am I doing? I’m feeding you something delicious!”

Hu Li shoved the Breakup Fruit toward Hu Bai’s mouth. His primal instincts as a Fox Beastman screamed at him that he could not eat it!

”Hu Bai, your female master doesn’t want you anymore anyway. This is a Breakup Fruit. Eat it, and we’ll help you break your partnership bond.”

Hu Bai’s pupils constricted. ”Get away! I won’t sever my bond! Get lost, all of you!”

Hu Bai began to struggle, and the four Male Beastmen holding him could barely keep him down!

Hu Li quickly took a step back. ”Are you all useless?! You can’t even control one unawakened male?! Go! All of you!”

All nine of Hu Li’s Beast Husbands pounced to subdue Hu Bai!

Hu Li grew a little nervous as she watched the scene unfold.

’What’s going on? Isn’t Hu Bai just an ordinary Beastman who’s never awakened? How could he be this strong?’

’Impossible. He’s just a sickly good-for-nothing. I have nine Beast Husbands, and several are even Beast Warriors. There’s no way they can’t control Hu Bai!’

Hu Li approached again, but just as she did, Hu Bai seemed to go berserk.

He broke free from all nine Male Beastmen by himself. As they were sent flying, they even knocked Hu Li over!

”Ah!” Hu Li was knocked to the ground by one of her own Beast Husbands. She rubbed her back, then saw Hu Bai pick up the Breakup Fruit from next to her.

Hu Li was both stunned and terrified.

’Her nine Beast Husbands couldn’t control him? How could Hu Bai possibly be this strong?’

”Y-You, what do you think you’re doing?”

The male’s cold eyes fell upon Hu Li. She said nervously, ”What are you all doing? Protect me, quick!”

Hu Bai’s frame was still gaunt, the Beast Skin Skirt hanging loosely on him, yet it failed to hide his stunning beauty. ”It’s because Stone Village raised me that I’ve always endured as much as I could all these years.”

He walked toward Hu Li step by step. ”But why must you all push me to this point?!”

Just as a few of the Male Beastmen charged toward him, he seized Hu Li in one swift motion!

Hu Li shrieked, ”Wait, wait! Hu Bai, what are you trying to do? I’m a female, you want to hurt me? Aren’t you afraid of being punished by the village?”

”What am I supposed to be afraid of?” Hu Bai’s eyes were like ice. ”What do I have left to fear?”

”It’s just as you said. My female master doesn’t want me. She abandoned me once, and now she’s going to abandon me a second time. But even so, I can’t bear to sever our partnership bond.”

”What... else do I have to FEAR!!!”

Seeing their female master, Hu Li, restrained, her nine Beast Husbands dared not move.

Hu Bai stared at the nine males, his eyes filled with scorn.

”Hu Bai! Hu Bai! Spare me!!” How could Hu Li have known Hu Bai was this strong? She couldn’t even budge in his grip. ”I was wrong, I’ll never provoke you again, I’m begging you, please let me go!”

”You can’t blame me for what happened today! It was you—your brat bullied my brat first.”

Hu Bai’s eyes grew even colder. ”You’re twisting the truth, calling black white?”

Hu Li grew more terrified and hurriedly said, ”Besides, the fruit wasn’t mine! It was Fox Zi! Fox Zi gave it to me!”

There was no true friendship between Hu Li and Fox Zi. If there was anything, it was a paper-thin, fake one.

Betraying her came all too easily.

Fox Zi...

Heh.

’He knew perfectly well what Fox Xin was after. As for Fox Zi, maybe she was innocent once, but for years she had helped Fox Xin oppress him and his son. She had played that game of ”slap, then soothe” far too many times. She was long past innocent.’

”Hu Li, you shouldn’t have provoked me.”

His face was like ice as he grabbed Hu Li’s chin and forced the Breakup Fruit down her throat. Hu Li struggled frantically, but her Beast Husbands, their faces twisted in horror, didn’t dare to step forward.

The Beast Pattern totems on Hu Li’s body flared to life. They were nearly all fox totems.

”No, don’t!” Hu Li shrieked. ”Don’t destroy my totems, I beg you!”

’She had nine Beast Husbands, each one painstakingly bonded with over the years. She was fond of every single one of them, and it would break her heart if any one of them was hurt!’

Hu Bai extended his sharp claws. With a few casual slashes, his claws tore through several of the totem marks, and he threw Hu Li aside.

”AHH!! AHHH!!!!”

”Fox He!! Fox Shi!! Fox Cong!!!”

The weaker Male Fox Beastmen stopped breathing almost instantly.

The other Male Beastmen writhed on the ground in agony.

But Hu Bai felt no pity whatsoever.

’They had provoked him first. They had tried to destroy his totem first. So what was wrong with him returning the favor in kind?’

”Get lost!”

Hu Li scrambled up from the ground. ”Quick, take them to the witch doctor! Hurry!!”

”Hu Bai!” Hu Li snarled, grinding her teeth. ”You’re a Male Beastman of Stone Village. After offending my family and harming me and my Beast Husbands, aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to survive here in the future?”

Hu Bai gave Hu Li an equally cold look in return.

”Afraid, you say? I’m a Male Beastman abandoned by his own female master. What do I have to fear?”

’Nan Zishi doesn’t want me...’

He was furious, aggrieved, and miserable.

”You... all of you Beastmen. For all these years, you’ve tried every way imaginable to wear me down, to wear down Fox Qi. Don’t you just want me to cast aside my dignity and pride?”

”But my pride is etched into my very bones. Other than her, no one can humiliate me, and no one has the right to!”

He walked toward Hu Li step by step. ”Hu Li, you should be grateful I didn’t kill you.”
