Beast World: From Villainess to Cub-Raising Chef novel Chapter 217

Chapter 217: Chapter 215: Bai Su Causes a Commotion

Bai Su stood quietly in line. Wen Dabao held her hand, his head bobbing as he gazed all around, yet he remained constantly on alert.

She was disguised as a rabbit Beastman for the day, her sharp lizard tail coiled around her waist so as not to draw attention.

Li Chenlin and Rosa Meiya weren’t idle either. They flanked Bai Su, one in front and one behind, preventing anyone from approaching her.

No matter how reluctant Li Chenlin was, he wouldn’t refuse Rosa Meiya’s help on an occasion like this.

On her hand, Bai Su wore the White Spider Ring of the Yelias family. A tiny, transparent strand of spider silk, barely noticeable, was tucked into her ear.

Yelias was using the ring to observe the surroundings remotely, while the strand of silk in her ear allowed him to communicate with her.

Through the ring’s perspective, Yelias was constantly briefing Bai Su about the members of the Royal Family around them and their connections to the mysterious Qin Family.

Holding their invitations, Bai Su and the others followed the line and entered the city.

The city’s construction was exceptionally magnificent. Its roads and plazas were remarkably spacious, making it feel more like a Western-style temple—a Bright City stationed above the clouds.

The ground was paved with white jade tiles. The only people coming and going on the streets were soldiers in white and cool-silver metal uniforms, and maids and male servants in gowns.

Occasionally, exquisitely crafted, high-tech flying shuttles would pass by on the wide roads.

Children dressed in white were playing and laughing in the streets, wearing floral wreaths on their heads.

For a moment, Bai Su thought she had arrived in paradise.

The announcements outside the city gate continued: "Welcoming the President of the Bounty Hunter Guild, codename L, to Qin City."

When Bai Su heard the codename, she couldn’t help but turn to look toward the city gate.

She saw a diminutive White Wolf Beastman appear, wearing a mask. He was dressed in an elegant white suit, and his figure looked strangely familiar.

The little fellow across from her had evidently noticed her gaze. He didn’t shy away, simply offering a gentlemanly nod.

Bai Su paused for a moment, then politely nodded in return.

Beside codename L was an equally small attendant, who was also wearing a suit and mask.

Bai Su looked at Li Chenlin beside her. "Seems like the President of the Bounty Hunter Guild is pretty important, huh? I noticed everyone else used their real names to enter, but he gets to use a codename and wear a mask."

Li Chenlin nodded slightly, glancing at the two small figures receding in the distance. "The Bounty Hunter Guild is a new organization that sprang up last year, and it’s growing ferociously. I heard the President is a Wolf Beastman who reached Level 9 at a very young age. He’s quite capable."

"When the Bounty Hunter Guild accepts a contract, they never fail. Many of the world’s Royal Families have hired them. They’ll even assassinate royalty."

"They were invited to Qin City, or so the rumor goes, because someone hired them last year to abduct Qin Nuo. They actually succeeded, but they returned him afterward."

"The Qin Family has the most advanced security system in the world, so this was undoubtedly a slap in their face."

"The Bounty Hunter Guild made a name for themselves with that one job. Not only was the Qin Family not angry, they’re actually interested in recruiting them. That’s the purpose of this invitation."

Bai Su nodded, only half-understanding.

No wonder those two little guys were allowed to enter the city wearing masks and enjoy preferential treatment.

She stared at their retreating figures, a strange glint in her eyes.

「On a street corner.」

The two little guys turned into a nearby alley and took a deep breath in unison.

"Bro, when Mom nodded at us, my knees almost buckled."

"I know. I was breaking out in a cold sweat."

Bai Xiaolang added with concern, "Anyway, stay far away from Mom. Do your best to stay out of her line of sight. If she sees us up close, the risk of blowing our cover is huge. Now isn’t the time to tell Mom the truth."

Bai Xiaoshe nodded. "Okay."
