Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Unfathomably Strange
Su Muyao’s face suddenly turned extremely solemn.
She had actually forgotten about Shen Ci’an, and didn’t expect him to return now.
This man, as wickedly beautiful as a demon, was too enchanting, with a tear-shaped mole at the corner of his eye that gave a breathtaking allure every time it moved.
When looking at people, he seemed to naturally express affection—mysterious yet emotional.
But in reality, he was the coldest and most ruthless person.
Just one glance at him, and it felt like the heart stopped beating.
His long, seductive eyes smiled softly at Su Muyao, with a hint of playfulness, full of evil charm.
His lips, like cherry blossoms, parted slightly as he murmured enchantingly, "What’s wrong, wife, don’t you recognize your own beast husband?"
Those eyes looked at her, raising slightly, stirring a faint arc of allure, seemingly reflecting a thread of blood-red light.
Su Muyao felt these eyes were extremely eerie, as if they could capture the soul.
Her throat involuntarily went dry, "No..."
Her voice was somewhat murmured; she really didn’t want to see Shen Ci’an, nor did she want to face him.
She couldn’t discern his power level, only felt the oppressive, eerie presence emanating from him was extremely sharp, carrying a strong aura.
So, his strength must be formidable.
Wen Nanxi, at this moment, could sense Su Muyao’s unease, and immediately came in front of her, blocking Shen Ci’an’s line of sight.
"Don’t be afraid, wife, I’m here."
He wouldn’t allow anyone to harm Su Muyao.
Shen Ci’an let out a lazy, gentle laugh, easily making one feel parched.
"Wife, are you just going to let them fight me like this?"
"If things get serious, and blood is shed, what should we do if it scares the wife?"
"If it causes her nightmares tonight, that wouldn’t be good."
Although he said this, the chill in his voice could send shivers down one’s spine.
As if it concealed murderous intent.
This was a threat to Wen Nanxi and the others.
Wen Nanxi struck out instantly, and Hua Linye joined in.
But Shen Ci’an maneuvered effortlessly among them.
Su Muyao speculated that Shen Ci’an should be stronger than Wen Nanxi and the others.
As Shen Ci’an was really about to get serious.
Su Muyao’s heart skipped a beat, and she shouted, "Wait, stop first."
As soon as Su Muyao spoke, everyone halted their actions.
Shen Ci’an smiled evilly, "The wife not only regained her beauty but also knows how to train beast husbands; they’re really obedient to you."
"Indeed, the wife has quite the means."
Su Muyao didn’t look into Shen Ci’an’s eyes; those eyes seemed to carry a crimson luster, easily devouring the heart, as if confusing one’s mind effortlessly.
One look, and the heartbeat lost its rhythm.
Su Muyao calmed herself, refusing to be beguiled by his voice, then retrieved a pre-written Divorce Letter from her spatial space.
She stepped out from behind Wen Nanxi, from a distance, handed the Divorce Letter to Shen Ci’an.
"Shen Ci’an, I know you don’t want to be my beast husband, here’s the Divorce Letter, from now on we’ll have no ties."
"So you wouldn’t come back if you didn’t want to, and wouldn’t have to return in the future."
Shen Ci’an’s malicious smile faded as he took the Divorce Letter and examined it, his long eyes raised.
He abruptly looked at Su Muyao.
Being locked in his gaze, Su Muyao, for some reason, felt her mind reel as her head spun.
She couldn’t help but wish, "Hope Shen Ci’an takes the Divorce Letter and leaves quickly."
"Too bizarre, why did my former self prioritize Shen Ci’an, making him a beast husband..."
Shen Ci’an’s long eyes flickered with a vibrant red, suddenly carrying a hint of interest in his gaze.
With a movement of his fingers, the Divorce Letter shattered instantly into pieces.
Next, his form moved mysteriously, somehow reaching out, grabbing her wrist, and pulling her sharply into his embrace.
Even though Su Muyao now possessed Level 4 Superpower, he easily managed to pull her into his arms.
A luxurious, dark aura enveloped him, and just breathing seemed to make one’s body weak.
She wanted to summon her superpower to fight, but it seemed to be suppressed, unable to manifest, as if it was confined.
At this moment, she didn’t know what Shen Ci’an intended to do, nor understood his approach.
Shen Ci’an looked down at the person in his embrace.
His eyes seemed contemplatively amused, saying deeply, "Did the wife forget what she had done back then, do you remember how you forced me to be your beast husband?"
As he spoke, one arm encircled her waist while the other gently lifted a strand of her hair, bending over to sniff lightly at the tip of his nose.
Indeed, the scent was different now!
His voice ethereal and soft, the sinister aura wrapped around her neck, like dark vines, entangling her.
Su Muyao suddenly recalled something, her face changed slightly.
She earnestly said, "I’m sorry, I apologize for past matters with you."
Suddenly she remembered, Shen Ci’an actually had a fiancée.
A fiancée arranged by the Shen Family for Shen Ci’an.
Shen Ci’an was preparing to marry over, but was later taken interest by her former self.
Her former self resorted to threats and inducements, using all means to coerce the Shen Family to cancel the engagement, making Shen Ci’an marry her.
Then Shen Ci’an’s fiancée’s family was even framed by her former self and exiled.
She was going crazy, wondering what her former self had done.
And she was stuck having to bear all these consequences.
Nonetheless, thinking of this, Su Muyao was actually somewhat puzzled.
The highest ruler of the Beast World Continent’s Central Region was the Empress.
The Empress used to be quite fond of her, treated her father well, and nearly always responded to her requests.
But as the Empress grew old and gravely ill, the Royal Family’s power became unstable, leading to many occurrences, including the exile of the Su Family.
"Why, was it whenever the wife wanted me, she could have me, but now bored, she wants to throw me away?"
Su Muyao, hearing these words, her lashes trembled fiercely, how ambiguous these words were.
What is meant by want?
"We have no substantial relationship."
"Ah, it’s my fault, is the wife complaining that I haven’t given her anything?"
Su Muyao’s lashes trembled, suddenly widening her bright eyes, not understanding what he intended to do.
Didn’t he despise her the most?
Among the five beast husbands, Shen Ci’an was indeed the one who resented her most.
Ever since coming to the Exile Land, he had been missing, which was obvious.
Shen Ci’an lowered his gaze to hers, his expression increasingly playful and mischievous.
He bent down, breathed hotly at her ear, "Wife, hmm?"
His voice rose lightly at the end, his expression mysterious and unpredictable.
The burning breath fell onto her neck, causing her heart string to tremble slightly; her fingers gently curled, unsure of where to place them.
Su Muyao spoke dryly, "No...no, why would I?"
"I just feel this way is better, y-you can still have Red Sand, regaining your freedom uninfluenced."
She needed to urge him to leave quickly.
Shen Ci’an spoke softly, "But what can be done, the wife drove away my fiancée, she must compensate me, right?"
Saying this, the fingers resting on her waist gently stroked her through the clothing.
Su Muyao swallowed, "Compensate? How to compensate?"
Shen Ci’an chuckled softly, wickedly alluring, "Naturally, the wife compensates me herself."
"The wife knows what my true form is; I can’t regain freedom, I need the wife, or else I’d lose my life."
