[Quick Transmigration] The Clingy Spirit of the Blackened Male Supporting Character - Chapter 92

Luo Ning saw the female parting the grass, revealing an unconscious beastman. He couldn’t see the face clearly, but the strong smell of blood was unmistakable. Blood gushed from a wound on the beastman’s chest. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.

Luo Ning tugged at Lin Ze’s hand and hesitated, “Should we take him back first?”

Lin Ze’s face was sullen as he reluctantly agreed. He didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business, but even he couldn’t just stand by and watch a beastman die. Most importantly, he feared that if the beastman died, no one would take the strange female away. The black leopard’s family had already been a trouble. He couldn’t afford to add another.

Lin Ze lifted the beastman onto his back. Helping out like this was already a sign of his softening heart, but he had no intention of letting the two annoying ones into their cave. He simply placed the beastman on a flat spot outside the cave.

While Luo Ning awkwardly tried to comfort the female, who was crying non-stop and getting louder and louder with each word, he felt a bit irritated.

Lin Ze’s expression was also dark. He hugged Luo Ning close, rubbed his ears, and threw a cold, threatening glare at the female. His eyes were filled with disgust and impatience.

Luo Ning reassured him, “Don’t cry. The most important thing is to bandage your companion’s wounds. Your voice is getting hoarse from crying, and you can’t keep this up.”

Luo Ning sent Lin Ze to check the beastman’s injury while he went into the cave to fetch some herbs to stop the bleeding. He boiled some water and directed Lin Ze to wash away the blood and methodically tend to the wound.

The beastman had a hole in his chest, a gruesome wound caused by sharp claws. The injury looked gruesome, but thankfully it hadn’t hit the heart. Given his strong physique, he should wake up soon.

The female stood to the side, watching Luo Ning and Lin Ze’s actions. He shrank his shoulders, sobbed, and bit his lip to keep quiet. His lowered eyes flashed with grievance.

He felt that these two were a bit cold. After all, he was a female, yet they were treating him so harshly. This thought stirred a hint of displeasure within him. He realized that this couple was settling in the forest, meaning he had encountered a wandering beastman.

Fierce and ruthless wandering beastmen, a group ostracized by their tribe, hated by beastmen, and known for their evil deeds. They were cruel and heartless.

The female shuddered at the thought. After leaving the tribe, he had encountered a group of savage wandering beastmen. This caused him to have nightmares and experience abuse. Now, simply hearing the words “wandering beastman” filled him with deep hatred and disdain.

But despite his disgust for wandering beastmen, he dared not speak now. He had to think of his own safety, especially since his beastman, Huo Yan, was injured and could only rely on the wandering beastman for help.

Biting his lip tightly, the female’s eyes reddened again. It was his own fault. He shouldn’t have been so playful and run out, causing Huo Yan to get hurt. After this experience, he regretted it. He almost lost his beloved beastman. The female prayed silently while blaming himself.

Luo Ning spoke softly, “Don’t worry, he should be out of danger now. Just stay with him until he wakes up.”

The female nodded and grabbed Luo Ning’s hand. “Thank you, thank you for helping us.”

“I’m a bit scared by myself. Can you stay with me? I can only relax once Huo Yan wakes up.”

Luo Ning opened his mouth to say something but was suddenly pulled away by Lin Ze. Lin Ze shook his head. Why should his partner stay to take care of another beastman?!

Agreeing to save the beastman was already his biggest concession, now the female was making requests again.

Lin Ze felt that the female was being too shameless. His keen senses detected the hatred and contempt in his eyes, making him even more displeased.

Luo Ning was obediently pulled away. He wasn’t used to the female’s dependence or his continuous crying. They had already helped as much as they could, and avoiding him for now was better.

In the evening, considering that the female was weak and likely couldn’t forage for food, Luo Ning sent some meat soup over. The female finally calmed down. His thin, haggard face revealed a hint of his delicate features.

Upon hearing the female’s name, Luo Ning’s eyes widened. “You said your name is Bai Xi?”

Bai Xi nodded, confused. “What’s wrong?”

Luo Ning was a bit surprised. “It’s nothing, I just think your name is quite nice.”

He couldn’t believe he had encountered the protagonist’s name, Bai Xi!

He had previously heard that the beastman was named Huo Yan, which sounded familiar, but hearing the name Bai Xi made everything click.

He hadn’t expected to change the original timeline and still encounter the so-called main characters.

Luo Ning initially just thought Bai Xi cried too much and had no strong feelings about him. But now recalling how the protagonist had repaid kindness with malice in the original timeline, harming and using Lin Ze, he felt a subtle rejection and his tone turned less gentle.

Looking at Bai Xi’s disheveled appearance, Luo Ning’s eyes became complicated for a moment. Bai Xi had also encountered the pursuit of wandering beastmen.

But this time, without Lin Ze’s help, he might not be able to escape, which was why he looked so worn out.

Luo Ning didn’t care what Bai Xi had encountered. He only cared about Lin Ze’s safety. He lost any goodwill for the protagonist and thought it was best to send him away as soon as possible.

Bai Xi remained somewhat oblivious and didn’t notice Luo Ning’s distance. Of course, this was partly because he had always perceived Luo Ning as cold and hadn’t picked up on the sudden distance.

He tasted a sip of the meat soup and sighed in comfort. When he glanced at Luo Ning, surprise and sorrow flashed in his eyes. He hadn’t expected a female who had left the tribe could make such delicious soup.

Although he didn’t think Luo Ning was as good-looking as him, he was still a female. How pitiful that he was suffering alongside a useless wandering beastman while pretending to be all lovey-dovey?

Bai Xi decided that considering they were both females, he would generously give Luo Ning a few words of advice. It was clearly the most ridiculous and foolish thing to do to follow a wandering beastman when there were so many excellent beastmen in the tribe to choose from.

So the next day when he went to ask for food, Bai Xi looked at Luo Ning with sympathy. He put on a helpless expression, sighed softly, and hesitated before saying, “You know, don’t you think your beastman is pretty fierce? He always looks so cold and intimidating. Can you handle that?”

“In our tribe, beastmen are gentle and obedient to females. They have to pamper us every day and make us happy. I think your beastman isn’t very considerate. Look, he even makes you cook for him. You must be exhausted!”

“Do you really want to spend your whole life in the forest?”

Luo Ning frowned, feeling a bit angry and disappointed. Bai Xi seemed to be speaking ill of Lin Ze, subtly planting seeds of doubt.

Bai Xi might as well change his name to “White-Eyed Wolf.” He stared coldly at Bai Xi and said expressionlessly, “So? What do you mean?”

Bai Xi immediately smiled and leaned closer to Luo Ning, speaking earnestly, “I’m doing this for your own good, so I wanted to remind you of something.”

“You look good and can cook well, which makes you very popular among the beastmen. Why stick with a wandering beastman? You’ll end up living your whole life wandering and suffering, which isn’t how we females should live.”

“And besides, a wandering beastman has no right to have a female partner. Don’t waste your time with a bad choice. If you end up having a wandering beastman’s cub, it will be even harder for you to get rid of it.”

Bai Xi tried to persuade him. In his eyes, Luo Ning was an inexperienced female to be following a wandering beastman and treating it like treasure. His life was truly pitiful. On one hand, he disliked Lin Ze’s identity and coldness, and on the other hand, he felt sympathy for Luo Ning.

He even found a bit of comfort in this. He had suffered at the hands of a wandering beastman, being both physically and mentally tortured. He was no longer the naive Bai Xi he once was. Compared to the other females in the tribe, he felt too miserable.

But now, encountering Luo Ning—a female who had become a partner to a wandering beastman and could only live with it—Bai Xi seemed to find a subtle sense of balance. When he saw another of his kind in a more miserable situation than his own, he could comfort himself that things weren’t so tragic after all.

Luo Ning was so angry that he laughed, his eyes flashing with a hint of sarcasm. His fingers trembled slightly as he coldly said to Bai Xi, “Get lost, go as far as you can. Just consider all the food I gave you as fed to the dogs.”

Bai Xi was stunned. Luo Ning’s reaction was completely unexpected. He stood there in disbelief. “What did you say?”

Luo Ning repeated, “I said get lost. You’re making me hate you!”

“Are you not only heartless but also deaf?”

Bai Xi blinked, his lips trembling. “How dare you insult me? You’re insulting me for a wandering beastman! Do you even know what a filthy creature that is? I was only trying to help you, and you treat me like this?”

“You’re hopeless! So stupid to mingle with a wandering beastman! A female like you will have plenty of suffering ahead!”

Luo Ning found it absurd. He replied sarcastically, “No matter how fierce a wandering beastman is, at least it saved you. The food you eat every day is also hunted by a wandering beastman.”

“If you look down on wandering beastmen, then what right do you have to accept their kindness?”

“What about your sense of shame? What qualifications do you have to point fingers?”

Luo Ning’s eyes were devoid of warmth. He thought that perhaps saving him was indeed a mistake.

Bai Xi’s face turned red with anger. He was usually pampered, and now he was being scolded by a female. Although Luo Ning was unfamiliar with him before, he had never been so rude with his words. How could Bai Xi accept this?

In his eyes, he was offering kind advice for Luo Ning’s sake, and he was ungrateful enough to scold him.

This made Bai Xi very angry, feeling as if he had been struck at a painful spot.

If he hadn’t been so panicked at the time, he wouldn’t have sought help from a wandering beastman. After all, it was just a bit of meat soup, yet he acted as if he had given him a great favor.

His eyes turned red, and he shouted sharply, “You’re insane for speaking up for a wandering beastman! I think you deserve any suffering you get in the future!”

“Look at you! Maybe you’re only fit to be with a wandering beastman!”

Luo Ning had been pushed to his bottom line. Before he could react, a large hand grabbed Bai Xi and tossed him away like prey.

Lin Ze’s eyes were cold and sharp, turning into vertical slits that gleamed with the cruelty and danger of a snake. He looked at Bai Xi as if he were prey with a broken neck, his fingers twitching as if he wanted to tear Bai Xi apart.
