Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite Chapter 456 - 453: Not an Illusion
She didn’t know why, when she t the gaze of the Snake God, her heart ached so much.
As if, a long, long ti ago, they were sohow acquainted.
Su Muyao wanted to ask the Snake God whether they had known each other before.
This feeling was too strong, so strong that her heart felt sour and intense.
But the Snake God said he didn’t have any mories from before.
Asking that question would be aningless anyway.
The Snake God saw Su Muyao’s tears and a trace of pity flashed across his eyes. He reached out his slender fingers to wipe away the beads of water from the corner of her eyes, "Don’t cry."
Su Muyao was startled, reaching to touch her own eyes, "I... am I crying?"
She wiped them, only to find that she really was shedding tears.
But how could she be crying here, "Why am I crying?"
The Snake God looked at Su Muyao’s tears with an expression of sadness in his eyes. He gently wiped away her tears and stroked her hair, as if clumsily comforting her, "Don’t cry, everything will be alright, the person you want to save will be rescued, it’s going to be okay..."
He softly comforted her, seemingly very afraid she would cry, unable to bear seeing her tears.
Clearly, the Snake God, born holy and noble, seldom exhibited the emotions of ordinary beasts, yet his voice was full of tender warmth at that mont.
At this mont, Su Muyao had a strong feeling that the gentle deanor of the Snake God was reminiscent of the feeling Wen Nanxi often gave her.
Wen Nanxi also liked to stroke her hair to comfort her, giving her a sense of tenderness and safety.
But she was aware that he was not Wen Nanxi at this mont.
Su Muyao realized she was crying and quickly suppressed the wistful emotions in her heart.
She looked at the Snake God with tear-filled eyes, "Snake God, why did you split into several bodies, is this so Secret Technique?"
"Was it an automatic split or caused by sothing else?"
Su Muyao wanted to know the catalyst, wanted to uncover the secrets of the Snake God.
The Ancient Nine-headed Snake Body must have so unknown secrets to ordinary people.
The Snake God was naturally unwilling to deceive Su Muyao, he began to explain: "As per usual logic, when facing danger, a snake might abandon one body—that is, one life—just to preserve itself."
"If you see three snake bodies, all from the sa head, it ans the experiences were more complicated."
"Normally, it doesn’t split so thoroughly."
The Snake God now only had a sliver of remnant consciousness, which was about to disappear soon, and he had no mories either.
A lot of things, even he was unsure about.
"If I’ve only seen three identical Ancient Heavenly Snakes, does that an the other heads of the Ancient Heavenly Snakes are dead, or are they inherently difficult to kill?"
The Snake God replied softly, "The Ancient Heavenly Snakes inherently possess Divine Power and Divine Blood, and at crucial monts, they certainly have various Secret Techniques to save their lives; they are not easy to kill. However, despite being difficult to kill, there is still a stronger Power in this world, possibly capable of killing the other heads. Now only these three weak lives remain."
The Snake God looked at Su Muyao with a gaze full of helplessness and pity, his figure beca increasingly transparent, and the mist grew thicker.
"Snake God, what’s happening to you?"
"I am about to disappear. Protect yourself, take care of yourself, the Reversed Scale acknowledges you as its master, only you can use it..."
In desperation, Su Muyao asked many more questions until the Snake God’s remnant consciousness vanished, and the mist in front of her lted away.
Su Muyao stood in place, holding a box with the Reversed Scale inside.
If it weren’t for these items still in her hands, she would have thought she was hallucinating.
Yet as the Snake God disappeared in an instant, Su Muyao felt a void in her heart, as if sothing had been cut out from it.
She did not understand what was happening, just felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
Once she had the Reversed Scale in hand, everything dispersed, all the scenes she saw also vanished.
Su Muyao found herself standing before a ruin again.
The scene she saw was still the real-world’s abandoned temple, not the intact temple she crossed epochs to witness.
"Wife, are you alright?"
"It was so strange earlier, you were clearly beside , yet seed shrouded in mist."
Earlier, Xiao Jihan had searched for Su Muyao for a long ti, yet didn’t spot her in the haze.
She seed to have vanished into thin air.
Luckily, the mist had totally dissipated now.
With a worried gaze, Xiao Jihan looked Su Muyao up and down, ensuring she was unhard before slowly exhaling in relief.
Earlier, he was nearly frantic.
Upon closely observing Su Muyao, Xiao Jihan saw the box in her hands, taken aback for a mont but didn’t ask much.
Certain things, if the wife wanted to share, she naturally would, and if not, he didn’t want to burden her with more stress.
Su Muyao looked at Xiao Jihan and voluntarily said, "Jihan, I just saw events like glimpses from a distant past through these abandoned structures."
"Yes, it felt like seeing scenes from hundreds of thousands of years ago..."
Su Muyao briefly described what she saw to Xiao Jihan.
While recounting these events, Su Muyao looked at Xiao Jihan, pondering whether the palace murals seen in a cavern before seed to depict the Ice Wolf Divine Beast among the totem of Divine Beasts.
Could Xiao Jihan’s ancestors possess Divine Blood too?
But now wasn’t the right ti to investigate these matters; rescuing Wen Nanxi was the priority.
Listening to Su Muyao, Xiao Jihan felt a surge of overwhelming astonishnt within. Yet after being stunned for a brief mont, he regained his composure and said, "So judging by this, Nan Feng is not the main body, hence lacks the innate advantage to suppress Wen Nanxi. If you have the Reversed Scale, with the forr Primordial Spirit Power of the Snake God, even if it can’t kill Nan Feng, it can restrain him."
"As for the Power stronger that hard the Snake God, we don’t know at this mont; perhaps we could learn sothing through Nan Feng."
In fact, ever since the Contract with his wife was renewed and he entered the Spirit Transformation Realm, Xiao Jihan vaguely sensed that there seed to be a stronger Power controlling sothing on the Beast World Continent.
This power seems to be suppressing Beast World Continent, preventing its Beast Gods or even beastn from acquiring greater Potential.
Every ti the Beast World Continent showed signs of progressing in a good direction, it was almost dood to undergo the Destruction Tribulation.
"These matters cannot be understood now, so let’s first focus on rescuing Wen Nanxi."
Su Muyao looked at the weary Xiao Jihan, realizing they hadn’t dared to rest along the journey because of the perils in the dense forest.
"It seems here should be quite safe, let’s rest here for the night."
Though it once was the Snake God Temple, and even if it’s now in ruins, Su Muyao found a sense of safety in this place.
They rested there for the night, and when daylight broke again, Su Muyao and Xiao Jihan continued their journey.
As they moved forward, they stumbled upon piles of snake bones, revealed only where the wind and sand had exposed them.
So snake bones were enormously huge.
The system awoke from sleep at this mont, all alard at the sight, "How could there be so many snake bones, how many Snake Beastn must have perished here?"
"These snake bones clearly belong to Snake Beastn, did many Snake Beastn once live here, and why did they all die to beco bones?"
With so many Snake Beastn’s bones exposed in the windy sands, it looked quite eerie.
