The vicious female Ye Youcha, who is in Shura Field every day

Chapter 308: Ghost Place

When we returned to the shed, the aroma of hot pot was already wafting out.

Feng Su sat in her seat, putting slices of meat into the copper pot.

Its fiery red plumage reflected the leaping firelight, making it look just like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

"Old fox, come quick!"

Xuanming saw Bai Qi come in and shouted loudly, "If you hadn't come soon, that show-off Feng Su would have eaten all the meat!"

Bai Qi wore his usual gentle smile, as if the gloom by the lake had never existed.

He smiled faintly, walked to the table and sat down, casually taking the bowl and chopsticks that Qingzhu handed him. "When have you ever eaten less meat?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up a slice of blanched meat, dipped it in the sauce, and put it into Su Xiyue's bowl. "This isn't spicy, Yue'er, have a taste."

Qingzhu couldn't help but glance at him, feeling that the fox was acting unusually strange today.

But I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong.

Ye Ling and Mo Lin sat at their seats eating, their eyes occasionally glancing at Bai Qi. Both of them were very curious about what Yue'er had said to him by the lake.

Su Xiyue looked at the meat in her bowl, then looked up at Bai Qi, who was looking at her with a gentle smile, as if their conversation by the lake had just been a dream.

But she knew it wasn't a dream.

Bai Qi's inner darkness and possessiveness are real.

She wasn't even sure if what Bai Qi had said by the lake was just a momentary impulse or a well-thought-out decision.

"Why isn't Yue'er eating? Is it not to her liking?"

Seeing that she was hesitant to eat, Bai Qi asked her softly.

Su Xiyue snapped out of her reverie and forced a smile: "No, it's fine."

She lowered her head, picked up a piece of meat from the bowl, and put it in her mouth. The steaming hot soup obscured her thoughts. It tasted good, but she couldn't taste it.

Ye Ling noticed her reaction and assumed she wanted the stronger-tasting side.

Although it's not advisable to eat heavily seasoned foods during pregnancy, it's okay to eat a little occasionally, as long as it's not excessive.

She picked up some tender meat that had been cooked in the spicy pot and put it into her bowl, completely unaware of Bai Qi's change in expression.

Bai Qi ate nonchalantly, lowering his eyes to hide the fleeting gloom in them, and poured Su Xiyue a cup of fruit tea with a smile: "Yue'er, have some fruit tea to cleanse your palate."

Su Xiyue picked up the fruit tea and took a sip. It was sweet and sour and tasted delicious, but she felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart.

Bai Qi longed for a lifelong, monogamous relationship, but she simply couldn't give him that.

From the very beginning, she had all five of them at the same time. At most, she shouldn't have taken in Xuanyuan Ming and Feng Su later, but at that time, she was forced by circumstances.

She didn't know why Bai Qi had suddenly become like this. Could it be that his possessiveness had become stronger as their feelings deepened?
She has absolutely no idea how to deal with this problem.

The hotpot meal was unusually long. When Xuanming snatched the last piece of meat, Su Xiyue practically fled the shed.

She needs to go out for some fresh air; she'll suffocate if she stays like this any longer.

Feng Su naturally noticed that something was wrong with her and wanted to follow her out, but Qing Zhu stopped her: "Let her have some peace and quiet, let's not disturb her."

At this point, her emerald eyes glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Bai Qi, who was leaning against the door.

No one knows what the old fox said to Yue'er, but ever since they returned from the lakeside, Yue'er has been absent-minded.

Feng Su's peach blossom eyes instantly turned to Bai Qi. Seeing that his expression was normal, she had some doubts in her heart, but she did not say anything more.

Although he was a womanizer and liked to cling to Su Xiyue, he was also very perceptive and knew that she needed space at this time.

Bai Qi ignored their gazes, toying with a section of his fox tail between his fingers, his eyes fixed on the direction Su Xiyue had fled, his gaze deep and terrifying.

After clearing away the dishes, Ye Ling came over and looked at Bai Qi's still gentle face with her silver eyes. She couldn't help but frown and ask, "Did you scare her?"

Bai Qi chuckled, releasing the fox tail from his grasp, and turned his gaze to Ye Ling: "I was just telling the truth. Didn't you ever think about that?"

"What have you thought about?"

Mo Lin suddenly appeared behind him and coldly took over the conversation.

Bai Qi turned around, the ten tails swaying gently behind him. He still had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were as deep as the sea: "Didn't you ever think about having Yue'er all to yourself?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air froze instantly.

Ye Ling, Mo Lin, and Qing Zhu were just as possessive as Bai Qi, and they had certainly considered this idea.

It can be extremely intense.

But such thoughts were just that—thoughts. They all knew that in this beast world, females could have multiple beast husbands; this was the unspoken rule.

Moon is no ordinary female; she is not only beautiful and intelligent, but also extremely powerful, and has gathered many outstanding beastmen around her.

This was inevitable.

Although they were jealous, it also proved how outstanding Yue'er was.

They love her and respect her, and don't want to cause her any psychological pressure because of their possessiveness.

Even the pain of making choices.

Ye Ling, Mo Lin, and Qing Zhu could all see that Yue'er cared about each of them, and if she really had to choose one, she would probably have a hard time deciding.

At that time, she would become very distressed, even depressed.

This is not what they want to see.

If you love her, you should make her happy, joyful, and blessed.

Nothing else matters.

"Bai Qi, you've gone too far."

Ye Ling narrowed her silver eyes slightly, her voice carrying a hint of warning.

Bai Qi simply chuckled and did not refute.

Qingzhu looked at him with her emerald eyes and said calmly, "Bai Qi, don't forget that the five of us started out together. You'd better take back those little thoughts of yours. If I find out again that you've upset her because of your own selfishness, don't blame me for being impolite."

As he spoke, his voice became cold and warning.

Bai Qi's smile remained unchanged, but a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, which he concealed well and disappeared in an instant. "You are quite magnanimous."

He looked at the night outside and suddenly chuckled, "Don't worry, I'm even more reluctant to let her be sad than you are."

As for you... well, that's not necessarily true.

However, he didn't say those words aloud; he just kept them to himself.

.........

The night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight was obscured by clouds.

A rustling sound came from the dense forest of Tianwu Canyon, where several figures were struggling to move forward.

"How do I get to this godforsaken place?"

A majestic golden lion leaped over the vines blocking its path, its golden mane glistening with dew. Its golden eyes surveyed its surroundings, and it spoke in a irritated, human-like voice.

Behind him followed an enormous, pitch-black snake, which was the true form of Cang Yu, the young master of the snake tribe.

After learning that the wolf tribe was hiding in the Sky Mist Canyon, they sneaked over under the cover of night.

Although they had heard that the Sky Mist Canyon was shrouded in poisonous miasma and had a complex terrain, making it easy to lose one's way, they still came in order to obtain the rare treasure.

Along the way, they even found many orc corpses.

Some had already been gnawed down to bones by wild animals, and were scattered randomly in the jungle.

Jinye irritably shook the dew off his mane, his sharp claws crushing a piece of bone: "Looks like there are quite a few fools who want to steal the treasure. Hmph, they don't even know their own strength before daring to trespass into this godforsaken place."

The Azure Jade Serpent's tail swept across the bushes, and its enormous head suddenly turned to a certain spot, its eerie green pupils contracting.

A tall, slender figure could be vaguely seen standing in the mist ahead.

The man had jet-black hair, his dark golden eyes gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and his face was handsome yet sinister. Dragon patterns were faintly visible on his beast-patterned robe.

Most horrifying of all, at his feet lay seven or eight orc corpses piled up in a twisted position, their necks covered in claw marks from fatal blows.

"Candle Dragon?"

Jinye's golden sideburns bristled instantly, and he instinctively took two steps back.

How could the dragons of the Upper Realm appear in the Lower Realm?
What's even more terrifying is that he couldn't even see the strength of the other party?
He himself was a sixth-tier orc, and even he couldn't see clearly, so the other party must be at least an eighth-tier or higher orc.

Their opponents are not only powerful but also mysterious dragons, making their chances of winning almost nonexistent.

Jinye and Cangyu exchanged a glance, both seeing wariness in each other's eyes.

"Who are you? And why are you here?"

Jinye suddenly transformed into human form, his gaze fixed on Xuanyuan Ming in the thick fog, and asked in a deep voice.

Xuan Yuanming casually wiped the blood from his hands, then lifted his eyelids and gave a cold laugh upon hearing this: "You are not worthy to know."

As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed and instantly transformed into a candle dragon, its massive body sweeping across the dense forest.

The Azure Jade Serpent flicked its tongue, its eerie green eyes filled with terror.

As it spewed out a ghostly green poisonous mist from its mouth, the snake's tail turned and fled in the opposite direction.

This mad dragon could kill them as easily as crushing ants.

Jinye reacted quickly as well. The moment Xuanyuan Ming pounced, he rolled on the spot, transforming into his true form, the golden lion, and dodged the fatal blow.

But he was too slow; the sharp dragon claws tore off most of the fur from his abdomen, leaving him covered in blood.

"hiss--"

Jinye trembled with pain, his golden beast eyes filled with horror.

Fortunately, the blow did not hit any vital organs, but the pain of being skinned alive was inevitable.

He endured the excruciating pain, turned around, and jumped into the nearby bushes, using the complex terrain to escape.

Xuanyuan Ming scoffed coldly and did not give chase.

He turned to look at Cang Yu on the other side.

The large black snake was terrified and scrambled away into the depths of the canyon.

However, his speed was no match for Xuan Yuanming's; with a sweep of his dragon tail...

Cangyu's enormous snake body was sent flying like a rag doll.

With a deafening roar, most of the ancient trees in the dense forest collapsed, and rubble and vegetation flew everywhere, falling in a flurry.

The black snake slid limply into the poisonous miasma, bright red blood seeping from the gaps in its scales; its fate was unknown.

Xuanyuan Ming transformed back into human form, frowning in annoyance: "Why are they all small fry? I can't even find an opponent to vent my anger on."

The night wind swirled fallen leaves as it drifted by.

He looked up at the distant mountain peaks shrouded in mist under the night sky.

The wolf tribe is located there.

After so many days, her anger should have subsided by now, right?
With that thought, he transformed into a candle dragon once more, soared into the sky, and flew towards the wolf tribe.

The moment it landed, it transformed into human form, and before it stood a tall city wall.

Just as I was about to step inside.

Suddenly, I noticed a conspicuous wooden sign hanging on the upper left of the city gate, with the words "Dragons and dogs are not allowed to enter" written on it.

Xuanyuan Ming stared at those words, stunned for a moment, then laughed in anger.

"Her temper has grown since I last saw her, which is quite typical of her."

As she spoke, she licked her red lips and suddenly burst out laughing.

Although the words were arrogant and provocative, strangely, I didn't feel angry; instead, I found them quite novel.

As expected of the female he chose, she is indeed extraordinary and becoming more and more interesting.

He had no idea that the sign was put up by Xuan Feng at Su Lie's behest, and had nothing to do with Su Xiyue.
