Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136: Chapter 135: Joining Forces to Save People

The last deal Bai Xue and her mother made with the Medical Alliance—a trade of live females—occurred in October and involved over a hundred victims.

If they moved quickly enough, they might still be able to rescue that group of females.

The Medical Alliance’s main stronghold was entrenched in the border region between the Snow Country and the Southern Country.

Lu Tingyan sought out Li Chenlin and briefly explained the situation.

A direct assault by him and Yelias’s men to destroy the stronghold and rescue the females would be too risky, as it could easily tip their hand.

But Li Chenlin had powerful connections in the Southern Country’s underworld. If his people intervened, the matter would become much simpler.

When Li Chenlin received the message, he was in the middle of directing several hundred hackers to track down the IP addresses of everyone slandering Bai Su online. He wanted to go and personally wring their damn necks!

He replied, thoroughly uninterested: [Fuck off. You really think I’m some kind of hero? I’m not interested in saving the world.]

Lu Tingyan: [...]

[If we rescue these people, they’ll be the key to implicating the Bai family. Whether or not Susu can clear her name depends on them.]

[We need your support. Now.]

A dark look flashed in Li Chenlin’s eyes.

’Why is it that Lu Tingyan’s brain always works better than mine?’

Grumbling aside, Li Chenlin turned to glance at Bai Su, who was baking desserts in the kitchen. A dark glint flashed in his eyes.

’Once this job is done, I’ll go to Bai Su, lay it all out, and claim my credit. There’s no way she can refuse me then! Hmph.’

Li Chenlin turned and left.

The three men gathered.

Lu Tingyan quickly assigned tasks. "Li Chenlin, tonight you’ll take your men to create a diversion at the stronghold and draw their fire. I’ll circle around back to rescue the prisoners. No direct confrontations—the main goal is to lure the tiger from the mountain."

Li Chenlin narrowed his eyes, clearly displeased. "You’re calling the shots again? We’re the ones doing the dirty work, so what’s Yelias doing?"

Lu Tingyan replied, "The doctor at that stronghold is the same one who operated on Susu and Bai Xue all those years ago. Yelias’s mission is to find the evidence from that surgery."

Upon hearing this, Li Chenlin reluctantly fell silent.

「As night fell」 The three men went their separate ways to begin the operation.

The Medical Alliance stronghold was extremely well-hidden. On the surface, it appeared to be nothing more than an abandoned factory, with virtually no one in sight.

The base was located beneath the factory. A special password was required to deactivate the protective shield and gain access to the facility below.

While Li Chenlin created a diversion up front, two small figures crouched in the bushes in a nearby corner, observing quietly.

Bai Xiao Zhu blinked. "Big Brother, should we get involved?"

Bai Xiaolang calmly shook his head. "There’s no need. I already gave them the precise location of the stronghold. If they still can’t handle it, then they’re completely useless."

Bai Xiao Zhu asked, "So what are we doing here?"

Bai Xiaolang replied, "We’re observing from the shadows. Li Chenlin is about to go into hibernation, so who knows if his combat strength is up to the task."

’Of course, he wasn’t worried about Li Chenlin dying here. Rather, it was because this mission was crucial for Bai Su.’

’Only by obtaining the evidence could Bai Su clear her name and wash away the slander.’

Bai Xiao Zhu nodded. "Okay."

In the dark of the night, the sounds of males unleashing their spiritual power, punctuated by explosions, rose and fell in waves, shattering the late-night tranquility.

Li Chenlin’s combat strength was a little better than Bai Xiaolang had expected. At least he could handle a minor skirmish like this.
