After Giving Birth, All My Beast Ex-Husbands Suddenly Want Me Back Chapter 72: Exposed

Ghost Wolf and his n turned toward the source of the roar.

Not far away stood a massive spotted leopard. On its broad back sat a beautiful little female.

Because of their position—and because their attention had been on Tribal Chief Tali—they hadn’t noticed Sal earlier.

Now, seeing him clearly, their eyes widened in shock.

Th-that was the Boss!

But... who was the female on his back?

Their boss—letting a female ride on him?

They rubbed their eyes and looked again to make sure they weren’t hallucinating.

They weren’t.

He really was carrying her.

Heavens above—what kind of fearless female dared to sit on their boss’s back? Was she not afraid of being torn apart?

They instinctively started toward Sal, but a single cold glance from him stopped them in their tracks.

For now, Sal had no intention of letting Nina know he was the leader of wandering beasts. He feared that if she found out, she might look down on him—or worse, drive him away.

He wasn’t ready to tell her yet.

"Roar!"

He let out another commanding growl.

Ghost Wolf and the others imdiately understood.

The boss was telling them to get lost.

They had never imagined that the beastn Tali hired them to deal with would include their own leader.

If they’d known Sal was here, they wouldn’t have co even with ten tis the courage.

He was at the peak of the ninth rank—one slap from him could crush them.

Among beastn, the higher the rank, the greater the gap between levels.

(Though Sal’s strength had not yet fully recovered.)

The wandering beasts shivered and slowly retreated.

Ghost Wolf shot Tali an angry glare.

"Tribal Chief Tali, this job... We can’t take it. Consider your deposit a travel fee."

He waved at his n. "Brothers, we’re leaving."

They nodded frantically.

Yes. Leave. Leave imdiately. Any slower and the boss might slaughter them himself.

They ca quickly—and fled even faster—vanishing into the forest as if escaping for their lives.

Nina blinked in confusion.

The reinforcents Tali found... didn’t seem very reliable.

Sal gave a satisfied nod.

That’s more like it. Proper subordinates, unlike so morons.

Mino looked puzzled. Yanai’s gaze grew thoughtful.

Tali, watching his hired help bolt without lifting a finger, nearly coughed up blood in rage.

Wandering rogue beasts truly couldn’t be trusted—took his beast crystals and did nothing.

Seeing the tide turning, he shot a look at the badly injured Been, then threw several black energy stones to the ground.

Thick black smoke exploded outward, swallowing the forest in darkness.

Tali grabbed Been and fled.

Mino started to chase, but Sal stopped him.

"Mino. Take Nina and find a place to rest tonight. I’ll deal with Tali."

Mino didn’t argue. He and Yanai quickly escorted Nina away.

Sal shot off in pursuit.

He released another powerful roar, the sound tearing through the forest.

Far away, Ghost Wolf and his n froze—then imdiately turned around and rushed back toward Sal.

"Boss!" Ghost Wolf stopped before him.

"Capture the beastn who just made that deal with you," Sal ordered coldly. "Not one of them can escape."

"Yes!"

The wandering beasts sped off.

It didn’t take long before Tali and his n were captured.

Tali knelt before Sal, glancing between him and Ghost Wolf as realization dawned.

"You... you’re a rogue beast? Their leader?"

Sal gave a disdainful snort.

"You’re not worthy of knowing my identity."

He rubbed his chin, eyes narrowing.

"Ghost Wolf. Dig up everything on this Tribal Chief. I want his entire history exposed."

Killing him outright would be too rciful.

Anyone who dared sche against Nina deserved a fate worse than death.

Ghost Wolf and the others imdiately began torturing Tali and his loyal followers.

Several of them, having committed nurous cris under Tali’s command, couldn’t endure the punishnt and quickly spilled everything.

Listening to their confessions, Sal’s lips curved in mockery.

These so-called tribal leaders were more vicious than wandering beasts.

"Black Fla," Sal said coldly, "take them back to Turquoise Pine Tribe. Make them confess every cri before the entire tribe. After they’re done... cut out their useless tongues."

His voice dropped to ice.

"If the tribe is too kind, help them administer proper punishnt."

With so many grievances, kindness was unlikely.

Tali... have fun. I sure will.

For the sake of your daughter being Nina’s friend, I won’t personally deal with you.

"Yes."

Black Fla led several wandering beasts, dragging Tali and his n away.

"Ghost Wolf," Sal continued, "go to nearby tribes and bring a few beastn."

Ghost Wolf hesitated. "Boss... what kind of beastn?"

Sal leaned closer and whispered instructions into his ear.

Ghost Wolf’s eyes widened.

For a mont, he wondered if he’d misheard.

But he didn’t dare ask for clarification. He hurried off to carry out the order.

***

Tali and his followers were soon dragged back to Turquoise Pine Tribe.

Under Black Fla’s supervision, they were forced to confess each and every cri publicly.

The tribe was stunned.

Many refused to believe it at first—until other victims stepped forward.

Rage spread like wildfire.

"I can’t believe he was such a corrupt chief!"

"They deserve death!"

"Death is too rciful!"

Families of victims scread in fury.

"Because of you, my brother died!"

"My cub was killed because of your sches!"

"Break them! Lock them in the damp caverns! Let them suffer every day!"

After the confessions, Black Fla followed Sal’s orders and cut out their tongues.

The tribe dug out their crystal cores, shattered their limbs, and imprisoned them in dark, wet caves—where they would endure endless tornt.

Leah was devastated to learn how many cris her father and brother had committed. After saying her final farewell, she left Turquoise Pine Tribe with Teah to start anew elsewhere.

As for Tali—he lay in the darkness of the cave, filled with regret and despair.

***

anwhile, Ghost Wolf returned to Sal—with several trembling males in tow.

The captured males huddled together, shaking in fear.

"Y-Your Excellency," one stamred, "w-why did you capture us?"

He had already guessed Sal was the leader.

Sal spoke calmly.

"You don’t need to be afraid. I only want to ask a few questions. I won’t kill you."

The males swallowed nervously.

"Y-Yes... please ask."

Sal coughed lightly into his fist.

"I want to know... how do you usually please your female master? How do you make her favor you more?"

He paused, his tone lowering slightly.

"And... how do you generally persuade her to grant you... that kind of favor?"

His voice grew even quieter.

"That sort of... favor."

The captured males stared at him in shock.

Behind him, the wandering beasts’ jaws collectively dropped.
