Before Zhenzhen could ask, the female envoy was already some distance away. She could only suppress her questions for the time being and have her Beast Husband keep following.
The deeper they went, the stronger Zhenzhen's sense of unease became.
She hadn't encountered many Beastmen along the way, but the sounds coming from the stone houses on either side of the path told her that they were all inhabited.
Yet when she peeked through the windows, she could only see pitch-black darkness.
'Something's wrong.'
'Something's wrong with North Beast City.'
A sudden panic seized Zhenzhen. Unable to control her strength, she squeezed the shoulder of the Beast Husband she was riding, her voice trembling. "Wait."
The female envoy stopped.
Zhenzhen struggled to remain calm and asked, "The other females who came with me, where are they staying?"
The female envoy replied, "They are living in the nests assigned to them, of course."
Zhenzhen's pupils constricted. "Nests?"
