When Beauty Meets Beasts

Chapter 640 - 640 You're Dead



640 You’re Dead

Shuang Yun and Xue Ling sneaked into the palace.

They quickly found Cynthia, but she was by the dragon emperor’s side. If they attacked her, they would definitely alarm him.

Shuang Yun and Xue Ling hid in the dark, observing and discussing.

Shuang Yun analyzed, “Little Lotus and the green crystal bracelet were taken by Cyril. Cyril is Cynthia’s lackey, so there’s a high chance that Little Lotus and the green crystal bracelet are in Cynthia’s hands. Are we going to force her to hand them over?”

Xue Ling refused decisively. “No, we can’t alarm the dragon emperor. This is the territory of the dragon race. If we anger the dragons, we’ll have to leave this place immediately. At that time, our search for Yun Hui will be in vain.”

“If we can’t use force, we’ll have to use our wits.”

Shuang Yun and Xue Ling looked at each other and received some kind of confirmation from each other’s eyes.

‘Yes, let’s split up!’

Helena had woken up, but she was in a daze. She didn’t recognize anyone. Since her tongue had been cut off, she couldn’t speak. She could only make strange cries. She looked like a crazy woman.

When the dragon emperor saw his beloved daughter reduced to this state, he felt both regret and hatred.

He punished all the palace guards who were in charge of patrolling that day, but the anger in his heart was still not vented.

Cynthia stayed by his side and comforted him gently for a long time.

The dragon emperor gradually calmed down.

An attendant walked in with his head lowered. “We have a guest for you, Your Majesty.”

“Who?”

“It’s that feather beast called Xue Ling.”

The dragon emperor was not in the mood to see guests now. He was about to wave his hand and ask someone to reject him when he heard Cynthia persuade him gently, “I heard that Xue Ling is an elder of the feather tribe. He’s knowledgeable. He might be able to cure the princess.”

The dragon emperor changed his mind.

“Then let’s meet him.”

Before long, Xue Ling walked in wearing a fiery red feather coat. He bowed slightly to the dragon emperor. “Good morning, Your Majesty.”

The dragon emperor was in a bad mood and couldn’t be bothered to be polite. He went straight to the point. “Why are you here?”

“I heard that the princess is sick, so I came to visit.”

The dragon emperor frowned. “Thank you for your concern. Helena is in a bad state. She doesn’t even recognize me as her father. Even if you go to see her, she’ll only scream.”

“As an elder of the feather tribe, I know a little about medicine. Your Majesty, allow me to take a look at the princess. I might be able to help.”

Seeing that he had taken the initiative to help, the dragon emperor was relieved. “If you can cure the princess, I’ll fulfill your demands no matter what reward you want!”

“The reward doesn’t matter. Saving lives is the most important.”

Xue Ling said it beautifully. The dragon emperor was very satisfied. He personally brought Xue Ling to see Helena.

The dragon emperor walked in front with Cynthia at his side. Xue Ling was a step behind them.

When the dragon emperor was not looking, Cynthia looked sideways at Xue Ling. Her black eyes were filled with malice.

She was silently provoking him.

Seeing her reaction, Xue Ling immediately understood that Cynthia had already discovered their true identities as soon as they entered the banquet hall last night.

To think that they had deliberately kept a low profile and tried not to meet Cynthia.

What a waste of time.

Xue Ling raised his fingers and gestured in front of his neck. His thin lips opened and closed. There was no sound, but it was clear to the other party that he was saying—

‘You’re dead.’

Cynthia raised her eyebrows. The other party’s arrogance was beyond her expectations.

She licked the corner of her bright red mouth. What an interesting man~

As she walked up the steps, Cynthia suddenly lost her footing!

She exclaimed and fell in front of Xue Ling.

Xue Ling took a step back very calmly.

He watched as Cynthia fell in front of him with an extremely cold expression.

The dragon emperor immediately helped Cynthia up and asked with concern, “Are you hurt?”

Cynthia leaned into his arms, her voice delicate. “I’m fine. I just twisted my ankle.”

“How could you be so careless?”

Cynthia glanced at Xue Ling carefully and hesitated.

The dragon emperor frowned. “Just say what you have to say. Don’t hesitate.”

Cynthia hesitated for a long time before saying softly, blushing, “Someone stepped on my dress behind me. That’s why I fell…”

She and the dragon emperor walked side by side. The only person behind them was Xue Ling.

The dragon emperor immediately looked at Xue Ling with a scrutinizing gaze. “Why did you step on Cynthia’s dress? Did she offend you?”

Before Xue Ling could speak, Cynthia grabbed the dragon emperor’s arm and bit her lower lip. “Your Majesty, don’t blame him. Perhaps I was mistaken just now. Let’s hurry up and see the princess. Perhaps Xue Ling can cure the princess.”

This woman was really scheming.

Not only did she disguise herself as an innocent woman, but she also made Xue Ling seem evil.

If it were anyone else, this matter might have passed just like that, but Xue Ling had never been a person who liked to suffer losses. If anyone dared to set him up, he would let them have a taste of death!

Xue Ling took two steps forward and walked up to Cynthia, smiling at her.

“I quite like stepping on people, but I prefer to step on them directly rather than secretly. Like now.”

As soon as the last word fell, Xue Ling stepped on the hem of her dress.

A flame emerged from under his feet and quickly spread up the hem of her dress.

Cynthia screamed in fear. “Ah! Fire! Help!”

She snuggled into the dragon emperor’s arms.

The dragon emperor was worried that he would be burned too. He quickly retreated and shouted for his guards to put out the fire.

The guards surrounded Cynthia and helped her put out the fire.

A large portion of her dress had been burned off, revealing her sooty legs. Her hands and face were dirty. She looked very disheveled.

Cynthia’s face contorted with anger, and her beautiful features immediately turned ferocious.

This stunned the dragon emperor, who wanted to comfort her.

Ever since he knew her, she had always been gentle and pleasant in front of him. He had never seen her so ferocious.

Noticing the dragon emperor’s gaze, Cynthia quickly lowered her head and raised her hand to wipe her tears. “Your Majesty, I was almost burned to death just now. I was so afraid.”

“It’s okay. The fire has been put out.” The dragon emperor raised her chin to wipe her tears, but he realized that her face was covered in dust and tears. She was no longer as charming as before.

He paused, then let go of her chin. “Go change your clothes. You can’t see anyone like this.”

Cynthia sensed his disdain, and her heart clenched.
