The Ultimate Beast World Glow-Up novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81 They’re Shameless

“Yes.” That single word left Reva staring at him in shock.

Finished

Ziven covered his mouth, equally stunned. He hadn’t meant to say it. No matter what he tried, that was the only word that came out.

“Who poisoned my mother?”

“Ms. Reva.”

Even with his hand over his mouth, the words slipped out clearly enough for everyone to hear.

“No! He’s lying!”

Reva hurried to explain to the crowd, then turned and shook Ziven hard.

“What’s wrong with you? Why are you saying this nonsense?!”

Ziven’s eyes were hollow as he muttered, “I don’t know either. I didn’t want to say it.”

“Do you want to kiss Reva? If you do, go ahead.”

As if possessed, Ziven slowly turned to look at Reva. She freaked out, scared stiff that he was about to kiss her in front of everyone. If he did, it would completely prove that the two of them were together.

She stared at him in fear, shaking her head repeatedly. “Don’t come any closer!”

Ziven suddenly wrapped a big hand around her waist, lifted his other hand to grip her chin, and forcefully pressed a kiss onto her lips.

“Oh my God!”

The whole place blew up at once. Reva was actually fooling around with her mother’s husband -something no one had ever heard of!

“I saw them kissing in the woods before!”

A kid’s voice rang out—it was Christopher. Grace immediately covered his mouth and scolded, “What does a kid know? Stop talking nonsense!”

But children’s words were often the most believable, because they simply said what they saw.

That one line from Christopher sealed it. Ziven and Reva had clearly been together for a long time.

Villagers who were close to Carina rushed forward, burning with

“That’s your mother! How could you be cruel enough to kill her?”

“A shameless beastman like that deserves to be drowned!”

anger.

“He might’ve also been involved in the poisoning! Toss him into the wild beast forest and let the monsters tear him apart!”

At the thought of the monsters in the dense forest, Reva shuddered and instinctively stepped in front of Ziven.

“He didn’t poison her. I did.”

No matter what, Reva was a noble female. Even if she poisoned someone and caused a death, she wouldn’t be sentenced to death.

Ziven was different. If he had poisoned someone, he’d die horribly.

Reva took a couple of deep breaths, then burst out laughing like she had lost her mind. After a while, she turned and stared straight at Rosalie.

“So what if I killed Mother? She can’t hear anything now anyway.

“Don’t forget-you were kicked out of the tribe. You have no right to inherit anything. I’m the only one who can become the tribe leader!

“I can decide whether Ziven lives or dies!”

Even though Rosalie was impressed by Reva’s boldness, she had no intention of letting her get her

way.

Rosalie walked to the bedside and took a small beast-hide pouch from her pocket. Undoing the tie, she revealed rows of needles, their tips gleaming sharply.

Rosalie’s medical proficiency had already reached level 3. Before coming, she had asked the system what level 3 could do.

The system gave her this set of needles and auto-unlocked needle therapy for her. Today was the perfect chance to try it.

She picked up a needle. It felt as though she had done this countless times before. With a steady motion, she pressed the needle precisely into a pressure point.

One needle after another, she did it as if guided by instinct, like a seasoned healer with years of experience.

After several needles, Carina’s eyelids twitched and slowly opened halfway. Her eyes fixed on Reva and Ziven, and a single tear slipped from the corner of her eye.

She still couldn’t speak, but it was clear she had heard everything that had just happened.

“Sorry to let you down,” Rosalie said coolly. “Mother isn’t dying yet.”

Reva, who had been so fearless before, completely lost it. She dropped to the ground, her gaze hollow as she kept muttering the same thing.

“How is this even possible?!”

Suddenly, the previously silent Ziven rushed to the bedside and grabbed Carina’s throat tightly.
