The Beastman Leader gave a bitter laugh. "There's something you don't know, Your Highness. It's not just us. Half the eligible males in the Imperial City are unwilling to become Princess Yu Yun's Beast Husband."
"Oh? And why is that?"
Yu An recalled that when she left the Imperial City, Yu Yun was a female sought after by thousands of males. How had things changed so drastically?
"Because aside from the Beast Husband betrothed to Princess Yu Yun by the Beast Emperor, all the other commoner males are dead!"
"Other men don't want to be Princess Yu Yun's Beast Husband because they're afraid of dying. I'm afraid of dying, too. And I even..."
The Beastman Leader continued, his voice laced with lingering fear, "I've even seen bodies being secretly carried out of the Princess Mansion."
"The faces of those corpses were all frozen in terror, twisted until they barely looked human..."
The memory of what he had seen made him shudder violently.
