He was afraid—afraid that Sang Guo would end up like Su Yu, carried off by some male with ill intentions.
Sang Guo's eyes widened in disbelief. "Shi Wei and Shengqing went to fight the Exotic Beasts for us! It's one thing that we couldn't protect their female! But now she's been kidnapped! And you're not even going after her! Luo Jian! How can you be so selfish!"
The more she spoke, the more agitated she became.
Fearing her anger would affect the cub inside her, Luo Jian raised a hand and struck a pressure point on the back of her neck.
Sang Guo's eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
Luo Jian silently caught her limp body. In his heart, he offered a silent apology to Su Yu.
He couldn't abandon his newly-mated female to go find her.
While Luo Jian didn't go, other males from various tribes who had their eyes on Su Yu did. They descended from their caves and followed the tunnel to search for her and Shu Rang.
