Chapter 720: Chapter 716: Tender Affection

Su Muyao asked, "I don’t know if my parents are on the Fusang Continent."

She had seen her mother on the Cang Beast Continent, but later she disappeared, and no one knew where she went.

However, Su Muyao always felt that they were still alive.

Yue Wuhen reached out and gently caressed Su Muyao’s hair, softly kissing her brows and eyes, soothingly saying, "Don’t worry, with their abilities, they’ll be fine, perhaps they just have important things to do."

Yet Yue Wuhen always felt that those important things might either involve Su Muyao or the entire Beast World.

Within Yue Wuhen’s encompassing aura, Su Muyao’s furrowed brows relaxed.

Su Muyao said, "By the way, previously guided by the Dragon Race Key, Jin Shuo and I visited a dense forest, and the plants there were unusual. The hidden weapons emerging there seemed to be from spirit plants..."

Su Muyao told Yue Wuhen about the happenings in the dense forest.

Yue Wuhen’s lavender eyes glimmered with a profound darkness, "If the spirit plants can cultivate and absorb nature’s spiritual energy, perhaps with their own abilities, they might be even more powerful than beastmen."

"There must be secrets about these spirit plants in that dense forest. Normally, all beings have spirits, and some spirit plants would gain spiritual intelligence over time."

"Just like the Creation Green Lotus and the Destructive Black Lotus, they are spirit plants, but due to their uniqueness, they possess power surpassing all beastmen."

"But apart from the Creation Green Lotus and Destructive Black Lotus, we haven’t seen other such powerful spirit plants in the Beast World, perhaps it’s just that we don’t know about them."

"Di Fu Yuan’s body disappeared two hundred to three hundred thousand years ago, vanishing along with the Destruction Tribulation. The Black Dragon King’s body, whether dragon bone or flesh, possesses extremely strong power; they must have important use for the dragon body."

Pausing for a moment, as Yue Wuhen seemed to think of something, he looked at Su Muyao with a gaze full of tender affection.

His elegant, jade-like fingers rested on Su Muyao’s back, gently stroking her, with a look of pain in his eyes.

Su Muyao felt the cool temperature of Yue Wuhen’s fingers, as if an electric current was running through her entire body, bringing an ultimate tingle.

Unable to resist, Su Muyao’s body lightly shivered.

Her eyes were watery with a hint of red, looking up at him.

At this moment, Yue Wuhen seemed not to be thinking about anything else.

His figure was particularly tall, with his purple clothes slightly open, revealing skin like jade, with traces like snow and plum.

Pale purple long hair cascaded down, contrasting with skin fair as snow, exceptionally enchanting.

His eyes, deep with tender affection, his fingers moving randomly, yet not with any other hue, his face elegantly noble, like a Moon God untouched by worldly matters.

Truly as white as snow in a mountain stream, as bright as the moon in the human world.

Such was he, hard to imagine him previously almost losing control.

She was held by him, pressed closely against him, feeling even more his waistline, recalling his consummate power, Su Muyao’s face reddened further.

"Wuhen..."

At this moment, Su Muyao’s voice was soft and tender.

Almost like she was coquettishly pleading with Yue Wuhen.

Listening to this tone, Yue Wuhen realized something, his fingers paused, he bowed his head and lovingly kissed her brows and eyes, softly saying, "Wife, did it hurt when your Immortal Phoenix Bone was taken?"

For some reason, hearing Yue Wuhen’s words, Su Muyao thought of the pain from when her Immortal Phoenix Bone was dug out, her nose went sour, and tears were about to burst forth.

Pain for her past self, Su Qingluo.

Back then, it was indeed very, very painful.

She told Cui Liyi, "Liyi, it hurts so much, don’t do this..."

She never said the word "plead" but back then she was pleading with him.

She was then covered in blood, her whole body trembling from pain.

She thought she was going to die.

But at that time, Cui Liyi remained exceedingly indifferent.

The action of digging her Immortal Phoenix Bone never stopped.

Eventually, she passed out from the pain.

She hated Cui Liyi.

No one knew about her experience; only she knew best what she went through as Su Qingluo.

She would never forgive Cui Liyi.

Su Muyao’s eyes were reddened, she lowered her head and buried herself in Yue Wuhen’s embrace, not wanting him to see her vulnerable side.

"It’s alright, it was nothing."

She couldn’t bear to deceive Yue Wuhen, she knew Yue Wuhen probably knew something anyway.

Why else would he be a Pure Blood Witch Clan Beastman?

Listening to her muffled tone, feeling the tremble of her body, Yue Wuhen understood, how could it not hurt.

Back then, when Yue Wuhen performed the sacrifice, he realized that his wife had long lost her Immortal Phoenix Bone, so she couldn’t transform into her true form, the Immortal Phoenix Beast.

The Witch Clan’s sacrifice could allow her Immortal Phoenix Bone to regenerate, but the Phoenix Bone lost back then was still missing.

Yue Wuhen didn’t want her heart to ache, but he knew, some shackles, some pain, were like thorns that must be spoken out and uprooted to heal her wounds.

He lowered his head, his lips landed on her hair, his breath enveloping her again.

"I will retrieve your Immortal Phoenix Bone for you."

Although now her body already had the Immortal Phoenix Bone, it was different, the lost Phoenix Bone also belonged to her original energy aura.

Listening to Yue Wuhen’s words, Su Muyao felt a sense of peace in her heart.

She looked up, clinging to Yue Wuhen, leaning in with her lips.

This time, Su Muyao clung to Yue Wuhen with utmost madness.

Yue Wuhen sighed lightly inside, he knew that at this moment she needed comfort.

Whatever she wanted, he would give.

...

When Su Muyao was exhausted and fell asleep, the gloomy aura enveloping her had dispersed.

As she drifted to sleep, Su Muyao seemed to return to her time as Su Qingluo.

Initially, Cui Liyi indeed treated her extremely coldly, very poorly, but later, because she followed the system’s advice to genuinely engage him, letting herself fall for him to conquer him.

Later, it seemed he believed her sincerity, treating her well.

Initially forbidding her from touching him, eventually, he was willing to establish a contract with her.

On the day of the contract, she was very happy.

She thought she had conquered Cui Liyi.

She told the system, "System, this way, Cui Liyi won’t want to awaken as a Chaos Wild Beastman; hasn’t this saved Beast World, Beast World won’t be destroyed."

The system said, "Normally, that’s correct."

"He possesses the power of destruction, but as long as he doesn’t awaken, he cannot use the power of destruction and certainly won’t destroy the world."

"Host, you’ve truly done an incredible job."

"You don’t know how difficult it is to deal with Cui Liyi as a Chaos Wild Beastman; he cannot be killed and has no emotions, no affection for any female. Luckily, you’ve conquered him."

"He’s developed feelings and won’t awaken, so this world will not have the Destruction Tribulation."

The system’s tone was very happy.

That night’s contract was very smooth.

Cui Liyi initially took great care of her feelings, extremely gentle.

No, Su Muyao now recalled, back then even though Cui Liyi’s eyes were red, he seemed untouched by any love.

Back then, as Su Qingluo, she had no experience with matters of the heart, naturally, she understood nothing.

But now she was Su Qingluo, having established a contract with her Beast Husband, naturally understanding what it felt like to be emotional.

Even the sacred Moon God, Yue Wuhen, was different, back then Cui Liyi indeed seemed strange.
