Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: The Thorns of Her Wrath

Su Qinglan’s hands were trembling as she pressed them over Hu Yan’s body. The green glow of her healing power burst out from her palms, wrapping his bloodied form in soft light.

The ground under them was sticky with blood. The air smelled heavily of blood. Her heart pounded as she poured every last bit of energy she had left into him. She didn’t even care how pale her face had become.

The wounds on his body slowly started to close. The deep scratches that were bleeding heavily finally stopped. Thick blood clots formed, covering the torn flesh. When she saw that, Su Qinglan let out a shaky breath.

"He won’t bleed anymore..." she whispered, her lips trembling.

Her body swayed from exhaustion, but her eyes never left him. "Two more times," she muttered, "two more times and he’ll be completely fine..."

Still, she smiled faintly... a broken but relieved full smile. At least now, he wouldn’t bleed to death, or his life would be in danger.

Her fingers touched his face, trying to wipe off the dried blood from his cheek. The warmth of his skin under all that mess made her chest ache. Her vision blurred as tears filled her eyes.

"Hu Yan..." she called softly, her voice cracking.

She lowered her head and rested it against his furry shoulder. Tears fell silently onto his fur, darkening the already red patches.

It hurt... It hurt so much to see him like this.

He was the first person she met in this world... the first who treated her gently, spoiled her, protected her, and made her laugh without reason.

Somewhere along the way, she had grown so attached to him, and now, seeing him covered in blood like this, it broke her heart into pieces.

Her hands clenched. Her tears stopped as anger started to rise.

Those stray beastmen... How dare they?

She wished she could crush them all with her bare hands for what they did to him.

And then her eyes turned cold as she thought of that one person, that damned owl beastman.

"If not for him..." she whispered through her teeth, "If not for that bastard, Hu Yan would’ve never gone through this... I swear, I’ll drill holes in his whole body the next time I see him..."

Her voice was low but full of hatred.

She continued to stroke Hu Yan’s fur, trying to calm the beast’s trembling body, combing his bloodied hair with her fingers. Her movements were gentle, but her heart was anything but calm.

Xuan Long stood behind her silently, his dark eyes watching the scene. Something heavy filled his chest as he looked at the girl crying so helplessly for another beast man.

After a long silence, he finally slithered closer. His tail brushed softly against the ground as he knelt beside her.

"Don’t cry," he said quietly, his deep voice calm and steady. "He’s fine now. Let’s go back to the cave. He can rest there."

Su Qinglan looked up at him. Her eyes were red and tired, her lashes wet with tears. She nodded slowly and gave him a small, weak smile.
