"Roar—"
The beast Shan Bao was surrounded and attacked by a swarm of palace guards, letting out an angry roar.
His sharp claws scuffled on the ground, his piercing eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.
When he had first been brought into the palace, Chu Yihan had trained him not to spill blood and to protect Su Yingxue!
But now these people who were attacking him...
"Shan Bao!"
Su Yingxue shouted, and immediately Shan Bao leaped up and tore in two the man blocking his way, then dashed swiftly to Su Yingxue's side, knocking Noble Consort Xiao to the ground and raising his sharp claws to her neck.
Granny Song's eyes bulged, "No! Your Highness! Your Majesty!"
"Shan Bao, don't kill her!"
Su Yingxue, leaning against the wall, cried out just in time to stop Shan Bao.
He didn't claw Noble Consort Xiao's neck, but he did leave a deep scratch and kicked her aside.
"Aoow~"
Shan Bao returned to Su Yingxue's side, noticing her leaning weakly against the wall and sniffed.
Blood.
