The Villainess Cannot Escape — Five Beast Husbands Chase Her Madly-Chapter 126: Poison Dragon and Big Fish Vying for Favor

Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Poison Dragon and Big Fish Vying for Favor

In the rooftop swimming pool of Moonlight Palace, morning light streamed through the glazed dome.

The bottom of the pool was filled with barriers made of red light screens.

They would sometimes erupt into whirlpools, and other times solidify into stone.

Su An’an’s pink fishtail shot forward like an arrow from a bow, letting her slide sideways past a swirling undercurrent.

Her slender, pale fingers skimmed the surface, and the water droplets instantly coalesced into a translucent shield, deflecting all the attacking sabertooth fish.

With a powerful flick of her caudal fin, a blade of water shot out, precisely shattering the stone obstacle.

"BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!"

The "challenge complete" tone suddenly sounded.

Su An’an broke the surface of the water, her long, wet hair clinging to her pale cheeks.

She swam to the edge of the pool and looked at Lan Cangming excitedly. "How long did it take this time?"

Lan Cangming smiled faintly and held the stopwatch out to her. "Eight minutes and fourteen seconds."

"That’s another fourteen seconds faster than before."

Su An’an’s pretty face flushed with happiness.

Lan Cangming shook open a fluffy pink towel and wrapped it around her shoulders, saying admiringly,

"This is the difficulty level of an elite adult mermaid’s trial. I didn’t expect you to pass it in just three days."

"Well, I am a top student."

Su An’an lifted her delicate chin proudly.

"We have to leave for the Mad Beast Institute in an hour. Let’s go complete our mission first, and we can continue training when we get back."

Lan Cangming glanced at his Smart Brain Ring.

The arrival notification for the Royal Airship was flashing.

"Okay."

Su An’an shook the water droplets from her fishtail and transformed back into her human form to change clothes.

’Your Highness, this is the battle attire I specially selected for you. We must show the entire Beast Clan that you can hold your own.’

Little Pink directed a robot butler to wheel in a high-end, custom-tailored white suit.

The sharp, tailored waist accentuated her upright figure, and a pearl brooch on the lapel refracted a soft halo of light.

Su An’an changed, nodded in satisfaction, and went to the main hall to find Lan Cangming already ready.

His white Marshal’s uniform outlined the lines of his broad shoulders and narrow waist.

Beneath the shadow of his military cap, his blue-green eyes were like a frozen sea, so stern they could cut through any doubt.

"Let’s go!" Su An’an took Lan Cangming’s arm and was about to head out when the door was suddenly pushed open.

Dressed in the uniform of the Judgement Court, Night Abyss walked in carrying a cardboard box. His handsome, gloomy face exuded a bone-chilling coldness.

"Your Highness!"

The cardboard box shook violently, and a tuft of snow-white fur poked out from a gap.

The moment Qiuqiu poked her head out, Su An’an gasped.

The once round and chubby little creature was now all taut sinew and muscle stretching her fur tight.

Even her downy fur had a metallic sheen and looked prickly to the touch.

"How did you get so thin?"

Her heart aching, she pulled Qiuqiu into her arms, but the little one pressed a paw against her shoulder.

"I’m not thin! Qiuqiu is very strong now. I can protect Your Highness."

Su Qiuqiu raised her little head, her ruby eyes reflecting the morning light.

The muscles under her fur rippled as her tail swayed. There was no longer any trace of the soft, pitiful little thing she once was.

"Yes, yes, our Qiuqiu is the strongest."

Su An’an pinched her fluffy cheeks, completely oblivious to the cold-glinting barbs on the little creature’s belly.

When she turned, she met Night Abyss’s gentle gaze, which was full of affection.

He wore a crisp, black Executor’s uniform.

The blood-red emblem of Dual Swords wrapped around a Poison Dragon radiated a chilling killing intent, making him seem like a drawn, poisoned blade.

"I’ll accompany you to the Mad Beast Institute."

Night Abyss glanced at Lan Cangming, moved to Su An’an’s left, and crooked his arm.

Lan Cangming, in his white Marshal’s uniform, his blue-green eyes as stern as ice beneath his cap, silently moved to her right side.

’Oh dear, another chaotic scene.’

Little Pink chuckled slyly.

’Your Highness, ignore them. Hurry and take Qiuqiu to deal with the Blood Spirit Grass.’

"You two act as my protectors. I’m going to get Qiuqiu ready."

Su An’an shot a look at her bickering Beast Husbands and took Qiuqiu to the pharmacy.

"Sweetheart, use your reorganization talent to help Auntie activate this grass."

Su An’an carefully took out the pale red Blood Spirit Grass.

She guided Qiuqiu to use her reorganization talent to transform it into a life-saving spiritual medicine.

"Sweetheart, go take a bath first."

Su An’an placed the fluffy little female cub in a pink bubble bathtub.

She then went to the medical room and used a multi-functional Healing Device to implant the Blood Spirit Grass beneath her right clavicle.

’Your Highness, these are the backup chips I had custom-made. Each one holds fifty thousand volts and can be used as a micro-bomb. You should implant them while you’re at it.’

Little Pink directed the robot butler to bring over three pale blue, fingernail-sized chips.

The time her Smart Brain Ring was damaged in the Rotting Hive had scared it, so it immediately spent a fortune to custom-order three internal chips.

If it weren’t for the limits of Su An’an’s physical tolerance, Little Pink would have loved to implant them all over her body.

Su An’an implanted one chip under her left clavicle and one in each of her arms.

By the time she was done, Qiuqiu had also finished her pink bubble bath.

She dressed the fluffy, pinkish-white female cub in a custom-made white lace princess dress.

Then she put on a Royal Family collar engraved with the initials "SQQ" and a Monarch Butterfly pattern.

Finally, she placed a Platinum Crown embedded with a pink Energy Gemstone on her head, instantly turning her into the Empire’s most stylish baby.

"You’re so pretty, sweetheart!"

Su An’an kissed Qiuqiu’s cute little face and asked as she carried her downstairs,

"Sweetheart, how were your last three days at the Judgement Hall? Did Uncle Night Abyss bully you?"

Qiuqiu shuddered, and an image of the grim dungeons of the Judgement Court flashed through her mind.

It was filled with terrifying Mutant Beasts.

Night Abyss had thrown her directly into a cell with a mantis Mutant Beast and given her one hour to finish the fight.

When the monster lunged at her, baring its fangs and claws, its foul-smelling saliva sprayed all over her face.

At first, she was so scared her legs went weak. It wasn’t until she discovered that her lizard-form Scale Armor could withstand its attacks that she mustered the courage to smash its head in with one whip of her tail.

After that came a mosquito beast, a wolf-dog beast...

At first, she could still rely on her Scale Armor to take the hits, but as her opponents grew stronger,

she began to learn how to lie in wait, turn invisible, and find her enemies’ weak points for a one-hit kill.

Until she faced the final one, a spider Mutant Beast...

A flicker of black light flashed uncontrollably at the tip of Qiuqiu’s tail before she hurriedly suppressed it.

"Sweetheart, it’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it."

Seeing her trembling all over, Su An’an gently stroked her little head.

’I don’t even have to think to know how cruel that training must have been. I’ll hold this grudge against Night Abyss,’ she thought, ’and make him pay for it later.’

"Your Highness, it was really nothing."

Qiuqiu quickly broke into a smile, her ruby eyes sparkling.

"Uncle Night Abyss taught me a lot of techniques for ambushing and turning invisible. I can freely control my bloodline power now!"

"Qiuqiu, you’re amazing!"

Su An’an praised her nonstop as she carried her into the main hall.

Night Abyss glanced at the lavishly dressed Qiuqiu, and recalling her ruthless appearance in the dungeon, he couldn’t help but sneer.

’Who would have thought this soft, cute little female could kill every single Mutant Beast used for training within three days? The sight of her standing on a pile of mangled corpses, surrounded by blood, as she completed her evolution... it’s still unsettling to this day. Good thing this little creature is completely dependent on Su An’an. Otherwise, I would never dare to let such a terrifying existence stay by her side.’

"Let’s go."

Su An’an took a deep breath and walked toward the Royal Airship, escorted by the two male beasts.

Night Abyss’s fingertips rested lightly on the small of her back, while Lan Cangming shielded her from the headwind.

Inside the airship, the cameras of the press corps instantly focused on the three of them.

Su An’an straightened her back, the Princess’s crest on her pure white suit shining under the lights.

The black and white figures on her left and right were like a solid bulwark.

Before long, Little Pink’s voice sounded in Su An’an’s sea of consciousness:

’Your Highness, we’ve arrived at the Mad Beast Institute.’

The airship landed at the entrance of the Mad Beast Institute.

Su An’an, carrying Qiuqiu, disembarked from the airship with Night Abyss and Lan Cangming, only to see at the entrance of the Mad Beast Institute...
