Chapter 43: Chapter 41: Golden Lion Transformation

Faced with the Golden Lion’s attack,

Su Xingye, who was keenly aware of Huo Zhanting’s strength, dodged with a nimble backflip.

"Marshal!"

His voice was tinged with shock.

He couldn’t understand why Huo Zhanting was acting like a crazed husband catching his wife with another man.

’Come to think of it, it’s also strange that he’s even at Yu Lan’s villa.’

Su Xingye had no time for further thought, because his evasion had clearly infuriated the Golden Lion.

Another fierce and vicious attack rushed toward him.

Every move was a killing blow.

’If I get distracted for even a second, I’ll be disfigured and injured. What if Yu Lan doesn’t like me anymore then?’

A white light flashed as Su Xingye quickly transformed into his Silver Wolf form. The Silver Wolf and the Golden Lion locked eyes.

In an instant,

they had already exchanged dozens of blows.

Each move was savage, and the terrifying pressure of their 3S-level spiritual power made the nearby Beastmen in the villa district tremble with fear.

「One minute later」

Yu Lan, who was in the lab, received a call from the villa district’s property management.

"Miss Yu, you need to come home and see this!"

"Your pet golden lion is fighting with a silver wolf! They’re making a huge mess of the whole villa district. We’re being flooded with complaint calls."

"The preliminary damages are already over one hundred thousand Star Coins! Miss Yu, please, you have to come back and take a look!"

’What!’

Yu Lan’s beautiful eyes instantly widened.

Her eyes filled with utter shock.

’My monthly salary is only thirty thousand Star Coins, and now a hundred thousand is gone just from a fight?’

Yu Lan was completely stunned.

That was three months of work down the drain in an instant.

How could she possibly focus on work? She hurriedly asked Shen Zueran for leave and rushed to get home.

"Director, there’s an emergency at home. I need to go back right away."

Shen Zueran’s expression changed instantly.

As a male beast who had just used a potion to suppress his mating period, he was in a special state where he desperately wanted to cling to the female’s side at all times.

Fearing he would scare Yu Lan, he had barely managed to suppress his inner desires, contenting himself with just being in the same lab.

Now that Yu Lan was leaving,

Shen Zueran found it completely unacceptable.

He had also overheard a snippet of the phone call.

’A lion? A silver wolf?’

’Could it be Su Xingye?’

How could he possibly let Yu Lan go meet another man? With a cold expression, he hurried to follow her.

"I’ll go with you and help handle it."

*

By the time Yu Lan and Shen Zueran arrived at the villa’s gate,

the battle between the Golden Lion and the Silver Wolf had reached its climax.

Facing Huo Zhanting’s relentless, lethal attacks, Su Xingye was starting to get angry too.

Both possessed formidable 3S-level spiritual power, and neither would back down. The air seemed to crackle with exploding sparks.

The moment the familiar hovercar appeared at the villa gate and its doors opened, the Golden Lion sharply noticed it.

The aura around its body grew even more arrogant and powerful.

’I’ll show this beautiful female just how useless other males are. She needs to see that I’m the strongest one here.’

This time,

when the Silver Wolf raised its paw to attack, the Golden Lion effortlessly leaped aside to dodge.

Then, it opened its great maw. A cold glint flashed across its sharp fangs as it lunged for the Silver Wolf’s unprotected neck.

In ancient times,

fiercely jealous male beasts, desperate to monopolize their beloved female, would do just as he was doing now: bare their fangs and viciously rip apart any mutt that dared to entice her.

This was the scene that greeted Yu Lan the moment she stepped out of the car.

The Golden Lion’s muscles were tensed and bulging. Beads of sweat slid down its skin, which gleamed like flowing gold. Its mane whipped about, exuding a wild, untamable, and handsome aura.

And the figure of the Silver Wolf fighting the Golden Lion was so familiar—it was clearly Su Xingye’s beast form.

’Oh my god!’

’My lion is trying to bite Su Xingye.’

’Su Xingye, the Light of the Empire, the Genius Lieutenant General!’

In that instant, Yu Lan’s heart leaped into her throat.

She shouted, trying to stop him:

"Baby, don’t bite!"

The female’s voice was so soft.

It was difficult for the male beasts, immersed in the roars of battle, to perceive.

But it was also so clear and bright,

because from the moment she appeared, both the Golden Lion and the Silver Wolf had their attention fixed entirely on her.

The Golden Lion, who had been immensely proud and enthusiastically beating up the "other man," froze instantly.

An overwhelming sense of grievance, of being betrayed, washed over him. His heart felt as if it were being squeezed by a giant hand. The Golden Lion, who had always been so powerful and fearsome that none dared to provoke him, nearly stumbled and fell.

The beautiful female had defended the Silver Wolf.

Right in front of him.

’Why? Why? Why?’

For the simple-minded Golden Lion, who loved the female with all his heart, this was simply incomprehensible.
