Chapter 265: Chapter 265: A Stark Contrast

Wen Nanxi explained softly, "According to ancient books, a long time ago, beastmen lived in tribes. At that time, spiritual energy was abundant, and everyone enhanced their superpower strength through cultivation."

"But the Nine Nether Spider Beastmen had a unique devouring secret technique, which harmed many beastmen of noble and outstanding lineage. Many tribes were massacred, and later, they were suppressed by the great power of the Witch Clan at that time, trapping all the spider beastmen in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land. Hence they were later called Nine Nether Spider Beastmen."

"Perhaps after all these years, the seal has loosened, and they’ve resurfaced."

"Or maybe there were survivors back then."

Shen Ci’an’s expression changed several times, and he said in a deep voice, "Decades ago, the Blood Clan my father belonged to was destroyed, possibly related to the Nine Nether Spider Beastmen."

"At that time, my father was not in the Blood Clan, so he escaped a disaster. It’s said that my uncle brought back a beautiful and soft female from outside, who harmed the entire Blood Clan."

"Later, my father discovered this type of spider silk in the clan. He spent a long time finding some records and learned that these spider silks were spun by the Nine Nether Spider Beastmen."

At this moment, Shen Ci’an didn’t wish to conceal anything.

"That female had a magic artifact that could block probing."

Even the mind reading technique unique to our Blood Clan couldn’t discern the true thoughts of that female.

"Moreover, my father said that when he saw his elder brother at that time, he always felt his qi and blood were deficient, and his healthy body looked weary and weak."

Upon hearing Shen Ci’an’s words, everyone’s expression changed.

This situation was very similar to Liu Mengyan and Jiang Mochuan’s case.

Su Muyao concentrated and said, "So Liu Mengyan and Jiang Mochuan are key clues that need to be watched."

Xiao Jihan handed the family’s hidden guards to Su Muyao, "Wife, let the Xiao Family hidden guards watch them."

Shen Ci’an spoke up, "It’s not that simple. Since Liu Mengyan has a magic artifact, she’s not easy to watch."

"Moreover, once we arrange people to monitor, she can easily find out, and it might startle her."

"The magic artifact they possess is not an ordinary one. Since the Nine Nether Spider Beastmen are a race passed down from ancient times, they must have some inherited heritage, not easy to deal with."

Su Muyao pondered for a while, her eyes flashing with icy, cold light, "Is it possible to destroy her magic artifact?"

"No, the magic artifact she wears is not ordinary. Only if the strength is strong enough can it be destroyed."

"Even though I’m a Level 10 superpower now, I can’t destroy the magic artifact."

"Level 10 superpower, to these spider beastmen, probably seems very low in strength."

At this moment, the system whispered in Su Muyao’s ear, "Host, forming a contract with Mei Qingchen might have unexpected rewards, might even awaken some ability."

"Mei Qingchen’s blood contains divine blood, it’s spirit communication blood. If you form a contract, the space will definitely have a better reward."

Upon hearing this, Su Muyao’s expression shifted as she looked at Mei Qingchen.

Mei Qingchen was sitting upright at this moment, like a clear breeze and bright moon, ink painting, with an ascetic aura, mysterious and sacred, making it impossible to blaspheme.

This kind of Mei Qingchen, how could she say such things?

She couldn’t say it.

Su Muyao discussed with Wen Nanxi and others for a while and let everyone rest.

The banquet today had spent a lot of everyone’s energy, and she also needed to rest well.

She also needed to sort out many clues, and during these few days, she planned to meet with the Su Family Army people, but she didn’t know the level of these fifty thousand Su Family Army.

She wanted to train her own hidden guard.

As for the affairs of the Blood Clan, she also wanted to help Shen Ci’an seek revenge.

...

While Su Muyao was lying on the bed after washing up and thinking about things, she suddenly heard a sound by the window.

She got up and opened the window, only to see a small golden leopard outside, resembling the size of a small dog, cute and soft.

Su Muyao couldn’t control her eyes lighting up.

She really had no resistance to such fluffy little animals.

"Wife, may I come in?"

As soon as he spoke, the voice was clear and melodious; it was Mei Qingchen’s voice.

Su Muyao suddenly returned to her senses, remembering what the system said, "Yes."

Saying this, she reached out to pick him up, closing the window afterward.

"Why are you here?"

Su Muyao gently stroked the fur on the little golden leopard, feeling that it was soft and comfortable.

Mei Qingchen knew his wife liked such fluffy little animals, so he deliberately transformed into this.

What happened at the banquet today, and those males looking at his wife, made Mei Qingchen clearly realize that if he wasn’t proactive, he wouldn’t know if he could form a contract with his wife.

Without the contract, he always felt insecure inside.

Early on, at the trial ground, he should have stuck to his wife.

Mei Qingchen’s heart was full of remorse and sighed, so tonight, he was determined to get closer to his wife.

Luckily, this method was effective.

He shielded the surroundings, not wanting others to hear any sound.

Mei Qingchen looked at Su Muyao with a pitiful gaze, "I miss my wife, can’t sleep."

Su Muyao blinked, "We’ve been together all day."

What’s there to miss?

Mei Qingchen internally sighed; his wife didn’t understand. He wished he could watch her every moment.

Mei Qingchen directly transformed into his body in Su Muyao’s arms, not wearing a piece of clothing.

Such unexpectedness, Su Muyao hadn’t reacted.

She instinctively turned her head away, her face slightly warm.

"You’ve seen every part of me, doesn’t my wife like it?"

"Won’t you turn around and take a look?"

Mei Qingchen approached Su Muyao from behind, gently holding her, lowering his head to whisper these words by her ear.

He tested getting closer to his wife, not feeling her rejection, which eased Mei Qingchen somewhat.

But he coveted wanting more.

Mei Qingchen held her like this, his warm breath reaching her skin.

His breath fell by her ear.

Su Muyao’s ear roots uncontrollably reddened.

When sleeping, Su Muyao wore a light silk garment, somewhat sheer, outlining a graceful figure.

Mei Qingchen’s exquisitely clear eyes revealed a hint of shimmering golden light, his breath somewhat disordered.

After awakening, he understood his desire to be close to her stemmed from the love deep inside.

"Wife, could you look at me?"

He wanted to make her satisfied.

When his lips touched her earlobe, the redness from her ears spread to her cheeks.

Making Su Muyao’s cheeks crimson, her heart race.

She felt Mei Qingchen’s great contrast.

Mei Qingchen buried his head by her ear, softly expressing some sentiments, "Wife, I feel I’ve waited for you for a very long time."

"Every time I remember pointing my sword at you, I feel heartbroken, I’m sorry."

Every time he recalled those things, he couldn’t sleep due to self-blame, fearing his wife’s mind.

Su Muyao sensed Mei Qingchen’s fragile heart at this moment, hurriedly turned around, but upon seeing his physique, only felt it’s so exquisitely perfect, muscles and lines like carved by a knife, waist embodying strength.

She hastily withdrew her gaze, not knowing where to look.

"I used to treat you badly, it’s normal you reacted like that, don’t overthink or dwell."

Mei Qingchen whispered hoarsely, "But only after being wife’s true beast husband, will I not overthink after forming a contract."

Tonight, he must become hers.

Just holding her, smelling her fascinating fragrance, he wished he could meld her deep within his heart.
