Chapter 379: Chapter 379
Si Yan had not expected that the Frost Flower they had just picked with great difficulty would end up being drunk by her.
Ming Ji said, "That snake Beastman has ancient injuries riddled with holes all over his body; half a Frost Flower is enough to heal him. Take the other half to drink, it can warm up your belly."
Si Yan looked at Ming Jiu in surprise.
She knew about the severity of She Wang’s internal injuries, which even her Wood-based Ability found difficult to resolve. She had not expected that half a Frost Flower could do it.
What she had expected even less was that Ming Ji would give the remaining half of the Frost Flower to her without any hesitation.
Ming Ji said, "What are you standing there for? Drink it while it’s hot. In this weather, broths and medicines cool quickly, and their efficacy is reduced once cold."
Ming Ji urged her to drink.
Si Yan fixed her gaze on him for several moments, then downed the half Frost Flower in one gulp.
The Frost Flower, which grew amidst freezing ice, actually made her feel warm after drinking it. Even in this extremely cold snowy land, Si Yan no longer felt the cold.
The womb-warming effect was certainly there.
But it wasn’t just about warming her womb.
Si Yan felt her power surging and transforming.
She closed her eyes, frantically absorbing the spiritual energy of the snowy land.
Her body was being baptized by a warm current, and impurities within her limbs and bones were being expelled at a rapid pace.
The chronic conditions suffered from her abuse in Myriad Beasts City, the lingering effects of starvation from her time in Yanxiang Tribe, the ailments from childbirth, and injuries from battles—all began to heal one by one at this moment.
The Beast Crystal within her personal dimension also rapidly changed from pale purple to deep purple, and even showed a slight hint of transforming into pale gold.
Ming Ji watched Si Yan, who was meditating in front of him, and also glanced at She Wang, who was coiled into a lumpy mass nearby.
Both of them had strong fluctuations of spiritual energy around them.
He looked at She Wang with slight annoyance.
This Beastman was already his brother-in-law, so he supposed he had no choice but to look out for him too.
「Inside the Divine Temple.」
Shangguan Xiao suddenly opened her eyes, then hurriedly got up and ran to the chamber of her mother, Shangguan Shuyi.
Shangguan Shuyi, dressed in a white-gold trimmed Priest’s robe, frowned and said, "What’s the matter, why so flustered?"
"Mother, my avatar is dead!"
Shangguan Shuyi asked in surprise, "What happened?"
Even for a deity, to condense an avatar capable of replacing oneself in the outside world and transfer all memories learned back to the main body is extremely difficult.
Even Shangguan Xiao had only one such avatar.
Shangguan Xiao said anxiously, "It was Ming Jiu! I’ve found Ming Jiu! He’s in Beast World!"
"Mother!" Shangguan Xiao tugged at Shangguan Shuyi. "I want Ming Jiu, I want him."
Shangguan Shuyi, feeling utterly helpless, could only pat Shangguan Xiao’s head. "Where did you say he is?"
"Beast World! That backward, barbaric world! You have no idea, the Beastmen there are so disgusting; they don’t wear clothes. They think about mating whenever they see a woman, and they have no sense of shame at all!"
Shangguan Shuyi’s eyes flickered with doubt and unease. "How did he end up in Beast World?"
"What ’how’ is there to it? His own world was gone, so he went to another world to get by. The higher worlds are out of his reach, so he could only go to lower ones," she replied.
"Mother, I don’t care, you have to help me!"
The twelfth world was almost completely destroyed, with nearly all intelligent life turning into terrifying zombies, billions of souls wailing in sorrow. This dark energy was more than enough.
The destruction of Beast World was about to begin.
Yet, Ming Jiu was in Beast World.
The Night Star, where the Night God resided, was the first world in the plan, and Beast World was the last.
The Night God wouldn’t know anything, would he?
Shangguan Shuyi steadied her gaze and said, "We must go and see."
Inside the cave, after the severe energy fluctuations had passed, the serpent beastman felt his old injuries had almost healed completely. He was experiencing a comfort he had never felt before.
Suddenly, he opened his amethyst-like purple eyes.
Si Yan had yet to open her eyes, and he just stared at her.
Once Si Yan’s breathing gradually stabilized, the serpent beastman’s purple pupils slightly curved upward.
His massive serpentine body gently coiled around her, ultimately placing the very tip of his tail in the palm of her hand, gently patting it within her soft, small palm.
Tickled by the sensation, Si Yan couldn’t help but giggle.
"Wang, stop moving around."
The serpent beastman stilled, his large Sen Ran head facing her as he flicked his forked tongue.
Si Yan slowly opened her eyes.
Her dark, ink-like eyes met his enchanting purple pupils, and Si Yan’s heart trembled once more.
From the moment she started liking him and willingly accepted him, she no longer feared his serpentine form and even found herself being moved by him time and again.
"Baby..." The large snake head nudged her face. He recalled the sight of her being captured by the Black Priest, when he had lost contact with her. His mind had been greatly shaken, fearing Si Yan might have met with misfortune.
Despite knowing that serpent beastmen couldn’t ascend the snowy mountain, he had done it anyway.
He was worried about her. He loved her. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel✦fire.net
Love’s instinct manifested physically, and the resulting changes made the serpent beastman suddenly feel embarrassed.
Si Yan keenly noticed something was amiss. She reached out to touch his serpentine body and asked, "What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
The purple Sen Ran head gently nodded, then he intended to uncoil from Si Yan and calm down by himself to the side.
But Si Yan wouldn’t let him go. "Wang, where are you uncomfortable? Is it because of the medicine you just took?"
The serpent beastman didn’t know how to reply to her; he released her and slid to the side.
However, just at that moment, Si Yan’s palm clamped down. She had grabbed the most vulnerable tip of the serpent beastman’s tail.
In an instant, the serpent beastman shuddered from head to toe. The once stoic and cold-blooded serpent beastman suddenly felt extremely frail, and, at this moment, he desperately wanted to flee.
"Wang!" Si Yan said, "Are you hiding something from me?"
The little female was clearly angry. "You don’t trust me? Keeping things from me? What exactly is making you uncomfortable?! If you don’t tell me, I won’t sleep with you tonight!"
The large head of the serpent beastman immediately moved over, and he narrowed his handsome eyes, warily asking, "Baby, if you don’t sleep with me, who will you sleep with?"
He asked earnestly, as if he really feared she would not sleep with him anymore.
Si Yan snorted. "You don’t want me minding your business. So why should I let you mind mine?"
Seeing Si Yan’s angry look, the serpent beastman finally surrendered.
The serpent scales receded one by one, his upper body shifting to human form, revealing his firm and very sexy eight-pack abs.
Wang’s handsome face appeared in front of Si Yan, as his silky long hair draped over her face.
From his elevated position, he looked intently at her, his voice even deeper and more sensual than usual, "Baby... it’s just that, I’m in heat."
In such a cold winter, he shouldn’t have gone into heat.
It might have been the soup medicine that Si Yan had fed him earlier, which not only repaired his body but also brought his physique to a peak state.
His smooth voice caused Si Yan’s face to flush deep red.
His snake tail tip gently patted in the palm of her hand, as the cold-blooded serpent beastman dangerously drew closer to her.
"Baby, you’re so beautiful, and you smell so good."
