Chapter 603: Chapter 603: The Beast Suppression Lock

Xuan Long did not wait even for a second. The moment Xiao San’s piercing cries echoed through the entire area, his mind completely exploded.

All rationality vanished from his eyes as he instantly transformed back into his human form and rushed forward like a mad beast. His long hair whipped wildly behind him while terrifying pressure burst from his body without restraint.

He looked at the unconscious body of Shi Feng, and his expression became conflicted. At this moment, nothing mattered more than his cub.

His son’s painful cries were like knives stabbing directly into his heart.

Every cry made Xuan Long feel as though someone was tearing apart his flesh alive.

Suddenly, his cold eyes landed on a trembling beastman hiding nearby.

"Take him to the old healer," Xuan Long ordered hoarsely. His voice sounded frighteningly unstable. "He cannot move by himself anymore."

The beastman instantly stiffened under the terrifying pressure radiating from Xuan Long, but he hurriedly nodded without daring to refuse.

"Y-Yes!"

Xuan Long did not wait another second. He did not even use his serpent form anymore because the only thing he wanted right now was to hold his cub in his arms as quickly as possible and let him know his father

had arrived.

His figure disappeared toward the City Lord’s residence almost instantly.

Meanwhile, the trembling beastman quickly rushed toward Shi Feng’s injured body. Seeing the horrifying amount of blood covering him made his scalp go numb.

"Brother!" he shouted anxiously toward the house nearby.

Another beastman immediately rushed outside after hearing his call.

The two of them carefully lifted Shi Feng together with difficulty before bringing him back inside the house. Blood continuously dripped onto the ground behind them, staining the dirt red.

The first beastman’s expression became grave as he pressed cloth tightly against the horrifying wound on Shi Feng’s abdomen.

"Quickly go call the old healer!" he shouted urgently toward his brother. "Hurry! This beastman is already on the verge of death!"

His brother immediately rushed outside without wasting another second.

At the same time, Xuan Long had already arrived before the City Lord’s residence. But the moment he saw the scene before him... His entire body froze.

Then rage exploded completely.

The entire space was crowded with people, yet Xuan Long’s eyes only locked onto one figure.

His tiny white cub, his little Xiao San.

The small cub who could barely even reach his knees was currently crying and struggling desperately in a cold man’s grip. His little body continuously trembled while tears flooded from his beautiful green eyes.

His cries had already become hoarse.

But the thing around the cub’s neck...

That thing made Xuan Long’s blood instantly freeze.

Around Xiao San’s neck was a black metallic collar engraved with countless strange crimson patterns.

A Beast Suppression Lock.

A terrifying torture weapon from the Teng Clan.

It was specifically used to suppress beast bloodlines and punish dangerous criminals. Once activated, the pain would spread through every meridian like thousands of poisonous needles tearing apart flesh and bones.

Even adults could barely endure it.

But now...

They had actually placed it on his cub.

Xuan Long’s mind instantly blanked. Countless memories suddenly surged into his mind uncontrollably. Dark underground chambers, cold chains, and painful screams.

That same collar around his own neck when he was younger. That same unbearable agony. His breathing suddenly became heavy.

And now... His son was suffering the exact same torture.

A terrifying murderous aura burst from Xuan Long’s body. The surrounding ground cracked violently beneath his feet. Then his scarlet eyes slowly lifted toward the man holding Xiao San.

"Teng Siyan," he growled in a terrifying voice.

"Leave my cub alone."

The moment those words fell, Xuan Long instantly charged forward with explosive speed. His fist carried monstrous force as it directly smashed toward Teng Siyan’s face.

But before the attack could land, another figure suddenly appeared between them.

BOOM!

A terrifying collision exploded through the courtyard.

An elder with long gray-green hair blocked Xuan Long’s punch with his palm. The impact alone shattered the ground beneath them.

The elder’s expression darkened. "Xuan Long! Calm yourself!"

But Xuan Long had already completely lost control. "Get out of my way!" His roar shook the entire area.

The elder narrowed his eyes before his serpent aura also exploded outward violently.

This elder was Teng Ren. One of the powerful elders of the Teng Clan.

Immediately, emerald serpent phantoms erupted behind both men as they clashed once more.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Their battle instantly became terrifying.

Xuan Long’s attacks were savage and ferocious, each strike aimed to kill. His fists tore through the air while countless emerald scales appeared across his arms.

Teng Rui’s expression became increasingly serious. He could clearly feel Xuan Long had gone mad.

"Xuan Long!" Teng Ren shouted while blocking another strike. "Listen to us first! We will not harm the cub! He carries Teng Clan blood too!"

Those words only made Xuan Long even more furious.

"Not harm him?" he roared.

"You already harmed him enough!"

A gigantic emerald serpent suddenly manifested behind Xuan Long before smashing toward Teng Ren with overwhelming force.

BOOOOM!

Several nearby wooden houses instantly collapsed into pieces. The entire area around the City Lord’s residence rapidly turned into ruins from the terrifying battle.

The surrounding beastmen all retreated in fear.

Nobody dared approach these monsters.

Teng Ren was also forced backward several steps, shock flashing through his eyes. He had not expected Xuan Long’s strength to become this terrifying.

Meanwhile, Teng Siyan calmly held Xiao San while coldly observing the battle. His lips slowly curled upward. "So now you even dare attack your own clan elder," he mocked.

Then his voice suddenly boomed across the battlefield.

"Xuan Long! Stop this immediately!"

"This is the order from your own uncle!"

The moment Xuan Long heard that voice, his movements paused for a split second. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

But the next moment...

BANG!

His fist directly smashed into Teng Rui’s chest.

Teng Ren violently crashed through a massive ancient tree, instantly toppling it onto the ground.

Dust exploded everywhere.

Xuan Long slowly floated in the air, his chest heaving violently. Then his scarlet eyes landed on Teng Siyan.

Blood relation?

Yes.

Teng Siyan was his father’s younger brother. His so-called uncle. But Xuan Long’s gaze only became colder.

Without another word, he instantly rushed toward Xiao San again.

This time he only wanted one thing: Take back his cub.

However, Teng Siyan moved even faster. He lightly stepped backward while holding Xiao San securely in his arms.

"You should greet your uncle first," Teng Siyan said with a faint smile.

Xuan Long’s fists clenched so tightly veins bulged across his arms. The urge to smash Teng Siyan’s face apart was becoming unbearable.

But Xiao San was still in his hands. So Xuan Long forcibly suppressed his killing intent.

"Hand over my cub," he said through gritted teeth.

Teng Siyan only smiled deeper.

"What is the hurry?" he said leisurely. "This is the first time I’ve held my nephew’s cub. Let me enjoy it for a while."

Xiao San continued crying miserably in his arms. Every cry stabbed Xuan Long’s heart harder. Finally, Xuan Long completely snapped.

"Teng Siyan!" he roared furiously. "Do not test my patience!"

Teng Siyan chuckled softly.

"Xuan Long... Xuan Long..." he sighed mockingly. "This terrible temper of yours will become your doom one day."

Then his gaze sharpened slightly.

"You should apologize properly to your uncle. Perhaps then I will forgive your rudeness."

He smiled faintly.

"After all... I am still your elder."

Xuan Long’s forehead veins throbbed violently. His scarlet eyes stared at Teng Siyan like a beast moments away from tearing someone apart alive.
