Chapter 745: Chapter 557: The Rage of the Tiger Lion Beast is Terrifying, All Because of Her!!_2

Ye Haoting looked toward the Chief Guard, signaling him to prepare the anesthetic.

The Chief Guard nodded and ordered the subordinates in the distance to ready their bows and arrows, with the arrowheads coated with anesthetic.

Ye Anyu felt a bit excited inside, the beast was finally unable to restrain itself from attacking. She urged in her heart for it to be quick, to fling her away with a swipe of its paw.

Shen Chuwei felt her waist encircled by a huge paw, and she instinctively hugged the paw to avoid being thrown away.

To her surprise, she found that the beast was gently pushing her behind itself...

Shen Chuwei’s back was against the smooth stone wall that didn’t chafe, and she watched the beast’s movements with confusion.

The beast shook its fur and let out another roar toward the sky.

Everyone present was startled by this roar and instinctively stepped back.

Ye Anyu turned pale with fright and hurriedly retreated.

Just then, the beast suddenly charged at the animal cage with great force.

With a loud "bang", the door of the cage flew off, striking Ye Anyu’s leg.

"Ah!!!" Ye Anyu screamed in pain, falling face-first into the dirt.

Then there was another "bang" as the cage broke open, the iron structure bending out of shape.

After their initial shock, the Guards remembered to use the anesthetic arrows, shooting them into the beast’s body.

The beast roared and shook itself, the two arrow feathers falling off in the process.

The Guards were terrified and stood frozen for a moment before remembering to continue using the anesthetic.

Ye Haoting hadn’t expected the beast to go berserk so suddenly. The uselessness of the arrow feathers suggested just how thick the beast’s fur was; no wonder it wasn’t afraid of other beasts like lions and tigers.

Ye Yuxi, too, was startled. Seeing his sister fall, he led the Guards to help Ye Anyu up.

Ye Anyu, in too much pain to care about Shen Chuwei, cried to Ye Yuxi, "Crown Prince brother, my leg hurts so much."

Everything happened so fast that Shen Chuwei was shocked on the spot. Was the beast so powerful that it could just break the iron cage by ramming into it twice?

Still in shock, Shen Chuwei watched the beast make room for her and turn to look at her, signaling for her to leave.

Shen Chuwei saw the large opening and observed the beast with its long whiskers raised, looking rather pleased with itself.

Did the beast think she was trapped, and that’s why it angrily destroyed the cage?

Shen Chuwei was grateful for her golden finger; otherwise, the consequences would’ve been unimaginable. She had seen that arrows were useless against the beast and her silver needles would naturally be ineffective as well, leaving her with no ability to defend herself.

Shen Chuwei left the cage under the beast’s watchful eye, and upon exiting, she saw that Ye Haoting and the others, who had been standing nearby, were now standing far away, watching.

Once Shen Chuwei was out, the beast also left the cage and stood by her side, the size difference between them immediately noticeable.

Ye Anyu, with tears streaming down her face, saw Shen Chuwei come out unscathed and looked incredulous. How was this possible?

Ye Haoting saw Shen Chuwei walk out safe and sound with the beast beside her, reminiscent of when Xiao Jiu was little, and the beast would also rest quietly by his side.

Back then, the beast was just a cub, not as big as it was now, and it looked somewhat cute.

This was the first time he witnessed the might of the beast – the seemingly impregnable cage was nothing to it, depending only on whether it wanted to break free or not.

After the beast calmed down, Ye Haoting strode over.

Smiling slightly, as he approached her, Ye Haoting said, "Xiao Jiu, the beast still listens only to you."

Shen Chuwei looked up at the beast, saw it looking down at her, and awkwardly averted her gaze to Ye Haoting. If he knew she had this inherent ability, he probably wouldn’t have said that.

"The beast does look a bit fierce, but it’s actually quite cute." That was her most genuine assessment of the beast.

Ye Haoting took a glance at the big hole in the animal cage, then at the fierce appearance of the beast. That’s called cute?

The corners of his mouth twitched vigorously.

"... It is a bit cute," Ye Haoting said, the words going against his true feelings.

Shen Chuwei, sensing from Ye Haoting’s tone that he wasn’t questioning the authenticity of her statement, glanced at the beast and reminded, "The beast is hungry. You should prepare some food for it."

"That shouldn’t be a problem," Ye Haoting instructed the Chief Guard. "Go prepare food for the
