Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 1056

Chapter 1056: Chapter 768: Familiar Friends (Part 3)

The remaining team members looked at each other, too afraid to make the first move.

The Tiger Clan Beastman couldn’t get up, the tall, thin one had fainted, and the elder Beastman was subdued in less than ten moves.

How were they going to fight this battle?

"What... do you really want?" the elder Beastman asked with difficulty.

Lu Xiao did not answer, he merely turned slightly to the side.

Shen Tang stepped out from the shadows.

She didn’t reveal her true appearance, her face covered with a faint mist of spiritual power, leaving only a blurry outline visible.

The survivors of the team subconsciously took a step back.

Shen Tang did not look at them; she walked directly towards Bai Lei, who was curled up in the corner.

Bai Lei’s face was pale, her whole body tense, with a faint blue superpower already gathered in her palm, ready to fight desperately at any moment.

But before her attack could reach Shen Tang, it dissipated instantly, like a drop of water falling into the ocean without even stirring a ripple.

Bai Lei’s pupils contracted sharply, and she turned to run.

Shen Tang raised her hand, and several vines burst from the ground, wrapping around Bai Lei’s wrists and ankles, gently holding her in place.

"Don’t be afraid." Shen Tang’s voice, altered through a voice changer, was low and neutral, "I won’t harm you. I just want to ask you some questions."

Bai Lei trembled all over, staring at the unrecognizable person in front of her. Her lips moved slightly, but she couldn’t utter a single word.

Shen Tang squatted down to meet her gaze.

"Weren’t you with Qin Han and the others? How did you end up joining a new mercenary team?"

Bai Lei was stunned.

She widened her eyes, her face full of confusion, with deep fear hidden in her eyes. How did this person know her past? How did they know Qin Han’s name?

"Who... who are you..." Her voice was trembling.

Shen Tang didn’t answer; she just looked at her quietly.

Bai Lei’s lips quivered, and under that calm yet irresistibly commanding gaze, she somehow found herself speaking.

"The team... disbanded a few months ago." Her voice was very soft, almost like she was talking to herself, "Brother Qin Han left, and everyone else... went their separate ways. I... couldn’t stay by myself, so I tagged along with this mercenary team, running errands. When there was a job, we’d gather; when there wasn’t, I’d just keep to myself..."

Shen Tang’s fingers tightened slightly.

Disbanded?

Qin Han left?

She remembered the reticent Lion Clan Beastman, who protected everyone in the team thoroughly, never letting anyone fall behind. How could he have left? How could he leave?

"Did something happen to them?" Shen Tang’s voice subconsciously softened.

Bai Lei lowered her head, her fingers twisting the hem of her clothes, her eyes rimmed red but without tears.

"Brother Qin Han... said he was tired." Her voice was muffled, "He said he couldn’t protect so many people anymore and told everyone to find their own way."

Shen Tang was silent for a long time.
