Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Chapter 154: Bai Su Gets a New Item

When Li Fengjue arrived at the scene, all he saw was a field of wreckage and ruin.

He looked at Li Chenlin, who was rampaging in the distance, and felt a deep-seated fear of this terrifyingly powerful son.

He never expected that after all these years of driving Li Chenlin out of the Imperial Palace and expelling him from the Royal Family, not only had he failed to suppress his son’s power, but he had allowed it to grow wild.

When Li Chenlin saw his good-for-nothing father approach, a flash of disgust crossed his eyes. He raised a hand, and his serpentine tail shot out, wrapping precisely around Li Fengjue’s neck and tightening viciously. "Is this what you call taking good care of my mother?"

The surrounding soldiers were scared out of their wits.

’This is the king of the Southern Country!’

’If anything happens to him, the entire Southern Country will descend into chaos!’

A flicker of fear passed through Li Fengjue’s eyes, but his expression remained relatively calm. "Panicking won’t do any good. I’ve already sent people out to search. Whatever the issue is, we’ll talk after we find her."

Hearing this, Li Chenlin slammed him to the ground. "Don’t forget," he said coldly, "if Mother didn’t love you and insist on staying by your side, I would have killed you long ago!"

This man, his father by blood, had never shown him a shred of warmth. Since childhood, he had feared his son’s power and tried multiple times to get rid of him for good.

If his mother hadn’t protected him since he was a child, he would have died long ago.

That was why when Li Chenlin came of age at eighteen and became the king of the global underworld, the first thing he did was storm the Southern Country’s Imperial Palace, intending to dethrone his own father.

He just never expected his mother to protect the man with her own life.

Constrained by his mother, Li Chenlin had no choice but to accept his expulsion from the Royal Family.

Li Fengjue had used his mother to control and suppress him for years.

His mother was the balancing point between them.

’If that balance is gone, I’ll tear this so-called father of mine to shreds with my own hands!’

Terrified by the darkness in his son’s eyes, Li Fengjue scrambled backward, stammering, "I... I’m the person your mother cares about most! If she comes back and can’t find me, she’ll be devastated!"

At the mention of his mother, Li Chenlin finally withdrew his cold gaze.

"What are you all standing around for! Send more people out to search!"

Li Fengjue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then put on a sorrowful expression. "Your mother was perfectly fine. How could she suddenly disappear? Could it be that one of your enemies came to our door, planning to use her to threaten you?"

"I love your mother so much. If anything happens to her, I won’t be able to go on living..."

Li Chenlin only found his words incredibly irritating.

His intuition told him there had to be some other reason for his mother’s disappearance.

But after so many days of searching, there wasn’t a single clue.

Li Chenlin was on the verge of giving up.

Suddenly, a filthy figure from nearby rushed forward, crying, "Little Lin! Little Lin..."

Li Fengjue subtly glanced at a soldier in the distance.

The soldier understood and quickly intercepted the person.

The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Li Chenlin. He narrowed his eyes. "Bring that person here."

Li Fengjue’s fingertips trembled slightly as he frowned in disapproval. "It’s just some beggar off the street. Finding your mother is what’s most important right now. Just give this bum some money and send them away."

Hearing his mother mentioned, Li Chenlin dismissed the thought and turned to leave.

"Little Lin! Little Lin, it’s me, Aunt Mei! Aunt Mei!"

At the name "Aunt Mei," Li Chenlin’s pupils contracted sharply.

He whipped around. "Bring her here!"

Li Fengjue shot a look at the soldier.

The soldier received the command and, using the chaotic scene as cover, raised his gun and aimed in Aunt Mei’s direction, about to fire.

In an instant, Li Chenlin’s spiritual power erupted and surged toward the soldier.

With a loud BANG, the soldier’s body exploded into pieces.
