Sang Luo hesitated for a moment before running over. Leaning close to the man, she checked if he was breathing. Thank goodness, he wasn't dead—he was still alive!
His physical injuries weren't severe, but his entire body was shrouded in Black Qi. This was a symptom of genetic mania, though it was slightly different from an ordinary Beastman's episode. On closer inspection, it somewhat resembled Caesar's condition on the warship. 'He seemed to have been poisoned by the Insect Clan then.'
'Did this lion fight the Insect Clan?'
'When Anubia left in such a hurry... could he have been the one she fought?'
'They're both King Beast Level, so they'd be evenly matched in a fight. And Anubia has a habit of backstabbing...'
'Sigh, to meet twice by chance... I guess it's fate. And this lion was just trying to protect me, too.'
A pale green energy began to radiate from her front paws, enveloping the man's body and slowly dispelling the Black Qi.
