Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 1045: Chapter 765: Love and Pain

Boom——

The giant crash left Shen Tang’s ears buzzing, the world spinning, everything blurred.

The Golden Eagle’s massive body repeatedly slammed into rocks and bushes.

The sound of breaking branches and the scratch of stones mixed together, painfully sharp like sour teeth.

He held her securely in his embrace, without even a scratch.

When everything calmed down, Shen Tang realized she was still alive.

She lay on a warm, heaving chest, pressed so closely she could distinctly feel the heart hidden beneath thick wings beating madly, as if it might explode at any moment.

"Lu Xiao?" She propped herself up, struggling to emerge from the thick feathers, her voice trembling.

No one answered.

Shen Tang lowered her head to look, and her heart twisted fiercely.

The Eagle Beast lay at an angle, wings crossed, motionless amidst a pile of rocks.

His wings bent at an unnatural angle, golden feathers scattered all over, some stained with blood, some blown away by the wind.

Long gashes marred his back, carved by shattered stones, flesh and blood mingling, fresh blood seeping down the feather roots, pooling into a small dark patch beneath him.

Shen Tang’s eyes reddened instantly. She scrambled to the Eagle Beast’s head, trembling as she checked for breath, "Ah Xiao..."

His eyelashes quivered, slowly opening his eyes.

His usually gentle and calm cyan eyes were now muddy and disorientated. Breathing shallow and rapid, his chest heaving violently, each exhale punctuated by slight tremors.

"Tweet..."

He heard her voice, tried to lift his head to see her, but it only lifted a little before dropping heavily.

Shen Tang’s tears gushed out.

"Don’t move, don’t move, let me heal you—"

She had just placed her hand on his wing, when the healing ability in her palm ignited a white glow, and the Golden Eagle’s body suddenly convulsed violently.

Then light flashed.

The Eagle Beast vanished.

A tall man lay in the stone debris, stark naked, face pale, blood at the corner of his mouth, skin covered with abrasions and cuts oozing blood. His left arm bent at an odd angle, clearly dislocated.

The most horrifying sight was his back, where he had hit the rocks earlier.

The original form was severely injured, but the human shape looked even worse. Shen Tang’s vision blurred instantly. She hurriedly took clothes from the space, covering him while clumsily trying to reposition the dislocated arm.

Crack!

Lu Xiao groaned, cold sweat forming on his forehead.

His consciousness seemed clearer, the gray-blue eyes gradually focusing, seeing the female before him.

"Female Master... Tangtang..." His voice was hoarse and barely audible, yet still held tenderness, "Are you alright?"

"I’m okay! I’m totally fine!" Shen Tang’s voice trembled with sobs, "Stop talking, let me heal you—"

She placed her palm against his chest wound, urged the healing ability. Pure white light spilled from her palm, seeping into the hideous wounds.

She could feel the man’s body shaking subtly, like every inch of skin was enduring pain.

"Why are you so foolish, I have healing powers, it’s not easy for me to get hurt..." She whispered, tears dropping pathetically onto the ground.

Lu Xiao knew she wouldn’t be harmed, but protecting the female is a male’s instinct, he couldn’t possibly watch her get hurt.

He wanted to comfort her like before, this kind of injury is nothing for a male, but pain made it hard to speak.

The wounds slowly healed under the influence of the healing ability, yet his complexion remained horrifyingly poor. Breath erratic, temperature fluctuating, as if undergoing some intense internal struggle.

Lu Xiao’s body trembled.

The kind that seeped from between bones, uncontrollable tremors, making his breath heavier, chest heaving more violently.

Shen Tang felt the muscles under her palm spasm, temperature rising, heartbeat racing like it would leap out of the chest cavity.

"Ah Xiao?" She lifted her head, met his eyes.

The softness in the man’s eyes was being engulfed, replaced by a strange yet familiar madness and chaos.

Shen Tang’s heart sank abruptly.

It’s "Return Nest".

Lu Xiao’s Return Nest had recurred.

These days he had been gritting his teeth, fighting from the sea to the sky, flying from the deep sea to here. His body had long reached its limit, endured only by sheer willpower.

Now safe, that taut string finally snapped.

The worst part was, it coincided with her mating season!
