Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28: Chapter 27: The Temptation of Gourmet Food

"I’ll follow Shen Tang and Captain Jia Lan."

Song Fang’s Black Wolf Beastman, Lang Xiao, was the first to step forward. He was originally a beastman from Jia Lan’s team, and both families were neighbors. Now, his impression of Shen Tang had completely changed; he believed her words were not nonsense.

His character was originally more stable and he didn’t want to take risks.

"I’ll follow Captain Xiao Jin too."

"Forget it, my salary is enough to buy Purification Crystal Stones. Anyway, with so many people, I won’t get much."

"Then... I won’t go either."

After four beastmen joined Shen Tang’s camp, it visibly shook the morale. More and more beastmen stood behind Shen Tang.

Xiao Jin and the others were the pillars of their unit, with many loyal followers.

In just a few minutes, as many as fifty to sixty beastmen stepped forward from the queue, deciding to take another path.

Several females also came forward; they didn’t want to endure high risks. Anyone could see that following Xiao Jin and the others was safer!

Shi Yin cursed fools in her heart, gnashing her teeth, "You’ll regret it!"

She walked up to Shen Tang with a gloomy face and said, "Just wait to be embarrassed!"

Shen Tang raised an eyebrow and sneered; who would really be embarrassed, let’s wait and see.

"Hmph!" When Shi Yin left, she gave Shen Tang a hard shoulder bump, unwillingly turned her head towards Xiao Jin, her fingertips gripping tightly into her palms, her heart growing more and more jealous of Shen Tang, filled with malice.

Everyone knew she liked Xiao Jin, and Xiao Jin knew too, but he still looked down on her and defended Shen Tang every time.

What was so good about this ugly thing?!

Clearly, she was the most outstanding female in the city, the one who deserved him the most!

As long as she could find the Purification Crystal Ore, Xiao Jin would definitely look at her with new eyes!

Shi Yin thought of this, full of pride, as if already imagining the scene of Xiao Jin realizing her worth later, regretting and kneeling in front of her, begging for her forgiveness and favor.

Xiao Jin saw this female staring straight at him, eyes filled with that disgusting desire, his sword brows furrowed deeply, a strong sense of disgust crossing his eyes.

He didn’t like females at all, especially hated the clingy, brainless fools.

Compared to the City Lord’s tyrannical and annoying daughter, Xiao Jin even found Shen Tang’s fat figure somewhat pleasing now. At least she wasn’t as ugly anymore, nor was she annoying.

Shen Tang saw this dog man suddenly turn his head towards her, a doubt flashed in her heart, wondering what he meant. Just then, she saw Xiao Jin’s face darken, shifted his gaze away, and seemed to be muttering to himself.

Meanwhile, a system voice sounded in her mind.

[Xiao Jin Affinity +5!] 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"..." This dog’s increase in affinity was really inexplicable.

The City Lord’s face darkened, "Are you really leaving the team to take another road?"

"Yes, we’ll meet at the next landmark point."

...

Most of the beastmen still followed the City Lord to search for the Purification Crystal Stone Mine. Shen Tang’s team, with fifty to sixty beastmen, took another remote path.

On the road, they encountered many polluted body attacks, but with Xiao Jin and the others, they quickly passed without injury.

Although they didn’t find a Crystal Stone Mine, they were lucky to find a river with relatively low pollution levels, replenishing their dwindling supply of bottled water.

As midnight fell, the fog in the polluted area grew denser, making it impossible to continue traveling.
