Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Cold-Blooded but Not Cold-Hearted (Third Extra Update)

Hearing the system’s words, Su Muyao was once again stunned.

Her eyelashes trembled, and she communicated with the system through her thoughts: "Just after traveling here, indeed, I feel very comfortable in this body."

"There’s no sense of discomfort at all."

After a pause, she recalled the feeling: "And back then, the body was also very coordinated."

She assumed she had traveled here, so she didn’t think much about it.

Now that she heard these things, she began to ponder many things.

"It’s strange, the memories from childhood in this body are blurry, I can’t recall them."

The Space System said: "That should be your original memory."

"Host, don’t worry, you’ll remember eventually."

Su Muyao pondered and asked: "Do you mean this Su Family Master is my biological father, and does he know this?"

The Space System replied: "According to Wen Nanxi, this Su Family Master knew that your body was once occupied by a dark soul."

No wonder, in the memories of the previous life, although the Su Family Master was kind to her and lacked nothing, he didn’t get close either.

The previous self wanted to marry a Beast Husband; as long as they were strong enough and had a good family background, he would help her marry them.

His only requirement of them was to protect her, nothing else mattered.

The previous self argued with the Su Family Master, saying all these Beast Husbands resisted her.

The Su Family Master didn’t care.

He always said that managing the relationship with the Beast Husband was something she needed to handle on her own; as a father, he didn’t understand.

Wen Nanxi did not know that Su Muyao was communicating with the system at this time.

Seeing Su Muyao not speaking, his mind shifted, and he said: "Wife, that was just what I promised my father before; I won’t leave."

The three-year period still had six months left, but he had already decided not to leave.

Su Muyao returned to her senses, looking seriously at Wen Nanxi: "Thank you for telling me these things."

It allowed her to understand some things.

"It’s nothing, what else does wife want to know, you can ask anything?"

As long as she asked, he would answer.

Su Muyao said: "You’ve forgotten where you came from, and you’ve also lost your memory, so how do you know so many things?"

Wen Nanxi softly explained: "It probably has something to do with the Ancient Celestial Snake, I have a part of legacy memories, and when mentioning many things, related information would surge in my mind."

But the legacy memory wasn’t complete, and he could feel that after being severely injured in the Southern Green Bamboo Forest, there were very serious problems in his body.

The magic ability that the Jade Green Bamboo Snake Beast should have couldn’t truly be displayed.

He could only display a part of it.

If there weren’t problems with his body, he certainly would have been able to use the secret technique of the Ancient Celestial Snake, even risking backlash, to save her in time.

But he didn’t know exactly what problem occurred during that injury.

Knowing this, Su Muyao understood.

"Thank you for telling me all this."

Wen Nanxi affectionately said: "Silly, I’m your Beast Husband; I will tell you anything you want to know."

"If you want to enhance your power, I can give you everything!"

As he spoke, Wen Nanxi lifted his wrist to show Su Muyao; there was Red Sand on it.

"Wife, after the Contract, the Red Sand will disappear."

This means that the disappearance of Red Sand signifies a successful Contract; he would then completely become hers, her Beast Husband.

Su Muyao looked at the Red Sand, listening to Wen Nanxi’s words, inexplicably, her face felt hot.

The Space System spoke: "Host, this is Red Sand, representing the chastity of the beast."

"For a beast to show Red Sand to a She-beast, the implications are quite different."

"Host, he’s willing to do everything for you!"

"He must also know that for you, using this method can enhance your power..."

Suddenly, Su Muyao’s body surged with a fiery pain.

So afterward, she couldn’t hear clearly what the system was saying.

"Mm..."

Wen Nanxi was holding Su Muyao and could feel her peculiarity; he looked at her worriedly: "Wife, what’s wrong?"

Su Muyao felt as if she was in flames, with a bit of pain.

The Space System pitifully said: "Host, this is the aftereffect of tempering the body; the potency was too strong."

"That’s why they say most people can’t handle this; it’s a way that defies the heavens."

"Normally, one would proceed step by step, following the rules of the Heavenly Dao to enhance power."

Using the fierce method of tempering the body was somewhat against the rules of the Heavenly Dao.

Su Muyao’s head buzzed, and she couldn’t hear clearly.

"Wife, what’s wrong?"

Wen Nanxi held Su Muyao dearly, asking her gently.

Su Muyao exhaled, "Hot... so hot..."

It felt as if she was still being tempered by the drug’s potency.

When Su Muyao felt the heat, when Wen Nanxi approached, she felt his aura so cool, as if it were cold jade, making one feel comfortable.

She couldn’t help leaning into Wen Nanxi’s embrace.

Wen Nanxi held her tightly, passing his cool temperature to her.

"Does this feel better?"

Su Muyao noddingly looked dazed, but after a while, the burning heat intensified.

Su Muyao slowly opened her eyes, looking at Wen Nanxi with shining eyes, radiant and captivating, with a hint of pitifulness.

It made one want to follow her wishes, to protect and cherish her.

Wen Nanxi sighed softly, "I can’t handle you."

Whatever she wanted, he was willing to give.

As he said this, he transformed his legs into a snake tail, wrapping around her.

The snake tail, with its natural chill, made Su Muyao feel a bit better, not as hot.

The aftereffect of tempering, so this was it.

Su Muyao felt like crying but had no tears.

This was even worse than making a Contract with the Beast Husband directly.

Actually, at a time like this, Xiao Jihan’s Ice Ability would be most effective for her.

But Wen Nanxi wasn’t willing to allow Su Muyao to be given to anyone.

Moreover, Xiao Jihan might not be willing either.

Afraid Xiao Jihan would hurt her feelings.

Wen Nanxi wrapped his snake tail around her body, locking her in, lowered his head, and his lips fell down.

He passed the chilling aura on to her.

It was the aura belonging to the Jade Green Bamboo Snake.

At this moment, Su Muyao seemed to be in the green bamboo forest, a cool wind blowing gently.

The Space System then spoke: "Host, you just went through body tempering, it’s not suitable for making a Contract now."

"If this potency were passed to the Beast Husband, their bodies could have problems."

"Moreover, if the potency is unbalanced, your own body will have problems."

"Once the tempering is complete, and the drug efficacy is gone, and your superpower’s aura is stable, then you can make a Contract."

Su Muyao immediately understood that it’s indeed impossible now.

She could feel Wen Nanxi’s kindness towards her.

She didn’t want him to take any risk.

"No... I can’t!"

Wen Nanxi naturally understood what she meant.

Wen Nanxi softly said: "I know."

"I know now is not the time."

He wouldn’t do anything to her at this time.

It’s just that the potency she used might be extremely domineering; she was really harsh on herself for enhancing her power.

Seemingly thinking of something, Wen Nanxi whispered in her ear: "Wife, the Jade Green Bamboo Snake Beast is naturally cold-blooded but not cold-hearted."

Thinking of some legacy memories, Wen Nanxi directly cut his wrist, letting it bleed for Su Muyao to drink his blood.

"Good girl, drink this, and you’ll be fine."

His blood, naturally cold-blooded, could relieve the body’s fiery pain after tempering.
