Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 524

Chapter 524: Chapter 524: Another Daughter??

All around them, the people of Dragon Beast City were growing restless. Low whispers spread through the crowd. After all, their City Lord had just been imprisoned inside his own residence. How could they stay calm?

And yet, no one moved.

The City Lord had already given an order before this happened. No one was to interfere. Everyone was to continue their daily lives as usual and not act rashly.

Those words carried weight. So they endured everything.

Even so, no one could truly relax. The murmurs grew louder as worry spread.

"How long will this go on...?"

"What is he planning...?"

"Can we really just wait like this...?"

People exchanged uneasy glances, some gesturing quietly as they tried to come up with solutions. But no one dared to act first. The pressure hanging over them was simply too great.

Then suddenly, the crowd stirred.

Someone pointed toward the residence. "He’s coming out!"

All eyes turned at once. The gates slowly opened, and then he appeared, the City Lord of Fox Beast City.

He was tall, calm, and completely composed, as if none of this chaos had anything to do with him. Behind him, a large group of fox beast warriors followed in silence, their movements perfectly in sync.

The moment he stepped out, the entire area fell into silence.

Su Qinglan looked at him, seeing him clearly for the first time.

Her eyes narrowed slightly. There was something familiar about him. For a brief moment, her mind raced, and then it clicked.

It was him.

The same man she had seen before... that day, when she was with Shi Feng.

Her heartbeat skipped.

At that exact moment, the man suddenly turned his head. His sharp gaze swept across the crowd before stopping directly on her.

Their eyes met.

For a brief second, there was a flicker of surprise in his eyes, and he stopped walking.

Everything seemed to pause.

But in the very next instant, before anyone could notice anything unusual, Su Qinglan had already moved. She stepped back, blending into the crowd with ease, and disappeared from sight.

The man blinked once.

The spot where she had been standing was now empty. His eyes slowly narrowed.

Rong Yanchen’s brows slowly drew together as he continued walking, his steps steady and unhurried, yet his thoughts had already drifted far from the noisy crowd behind him.

Something was wrong.

That female...

At first, it was only a faint discomfort, like a small thorn lodged somewhere in his chest.

But with every step he took, that feeling only grew sharper.

Until it was no longer something he could brush aside. His pace slowed slightly.

Then he suddenly stopped. The movement was so sudden that the fox warriors behind him almost failed to react in time.

Rong Yanchen’s eyes widened just a fraction, a rare crack in his usually composed expression.

Her face.

Yes... her face.

It flashed clearly in his mind now, every detail becoming more vivid.

It was very familiar... so familiar that it made his heart jolt violently against his ribs.

The Priestess. The resemblance was undeniable. Not just similar, but nearly identical.

His fingers curled slightly at his sides as a cold chill spread through him.

But how?
