A weak and evil woman was exiled? The beastly husbands risked their lives to protect her

Chapter 421 Living well together with Lord Bai Yaoxing!
"Lili, I'm fine." Sheng Tianze's deep golden eyes darkened, and he gently kneaded Jiang Xinli's snow-white rabbit ears.
"While Ocean Star is a trial for the dark females, isn't it the same for us, Xuan Ying? There are many things you can't bear alone. So—"

"What?" Jiang Xinli looked at him in confusion, wanting to hear some of his inner thoughts, but all she heard was guilt and self-blame.

She frowned. "Aze, are you hiding something from me again?"

He must have something to discuss with her.

It's very likely that it's something she doesn't want him to do.

That's why I deliberately put everyone in the private sphere beforehand, and that's why I laid out so many things earlier.

“Aze, I’m not a child anymore, nor am I the same person I was when I first returned to Dark Star.” Jiang Xinli looked at him seriously and said:
"Besides, you swore to me before that you would never hide anything from me again. Have you forgotten so quickly?"

“Lili, I haven’t forgotten.” Sheng Tianze pulled her closer to his chest, pondered for a moment, and then said, “Xuanying and I are going to the ancient battlefield.”

Jiang Xinli was taken aback. "You mean the ancient battlefield hidden in the deep-sea polluted ravines, where sea creatures tested themselves to improve their abilities?"

“Yes.” Sheng Tianze nodded. “When we went to the underwater palace last night, we saw many male land race members and heard a lot of information that we hadn’t heard before.”

"On the ancient battlefield of the sea tribe, there is still energy left by the gods from 1000 years ago. Therefore, the male sea tribe members can enhance their superpowers without the help of external forces."

However, their daily use of their supernatural abilities requires the sacred tree in the sanctuary for sustainment, while our use of our abilities differs somewhat from theirs, but the methods for increasing our ability levels are actually the same.

"We don't know what the improvement methods are in the ancient battlefield, but it is said that there are special barrier entrances, and a normal trial cycle takes about 8 days from entering to exiting."

"Eight days from now, it will be the time for the sea tribe's wedding and sacrificial ceremony. Only if our abilities are enhanced can we better fight against Yun Bo and the others, and also better protect you."

“Lili, I swore I wouldn’t hide anything from you.” Sheng Tianze gently rubbed his chin against the top of her head. “This is what I wanted to tell you.”

Jiang Xinli held her breath. "Aze, I don't agree to you going. It's too dangerous."

"I've heard of ancient battlefields, hidden in underwater trenches filled with pollutants and contaminants. They're not only extremely difficult to find, but also fraught with danger."

Even for sea creatures, the chances of survival are slim; let alone for you land creatures.

"Moreover, I've heard that the difficulty of the trials inside varies depending on the level of your superpower. I don't want you to get hurt; I just want you to be alright."

She said with a determined look in her eyes, "Aze, I will find a way to leave Ocean Star."

"Lili." Sheng Tianze cracked his knuckles, his gaze and words turning colder: "So what Lili actually needs is a weak, delicate husband hiding behind her?"

"Or is it that Lili is too immersed in the role and has really fallen for that mermaid prince? Wanting to become his mistress?"

"Aze, what do you mean by that?" Jiang Xinli frowned. "You know that's not what I meant."

"Lili." Realizing he had gone too far, Sheng Tianze took a deep breath and softened his tone:

"We entered the underwater palace last night, and while we were anxiously waiting for you, we all fell into a deep sleep."

We didn't realize until we woke up at the palace that Yunbo had thrown us into an underwater prison the night before.

Then, I learned that he had actually gone against everyone's wishes to marry you. "Lili, even if we're currently undergoing a trial, even if this Ocean Star is just a giant illusion, being thrown onto a chopping board like fish on a chopping board and left to be slaughtered is nothing short of a humiliation for us."

“Lili, I am a tiger, not a turtle.”

"I am the beastly husband who is responsible for rushing to the front to protect you and shield you from the wind and rain, not the weak little husband who hides behind you and stays in the corner."

“Aze, I know all of this. But the other party’s superpower level is too strong, not to mention that black dragon beastman who looks like a god.”

How can humans and gods fight against each other?
Therefore, we really can only outsmart them; we can't—" Jiang Xinli hesitated for a moment, "...like an egg hitting a rock."

“Lili, just because the other party is too strong, or might be a god, does that mean we should give up our struggle?” Sheng Tianze’s golden eyes narrowed slightly. “Whether it’s Xuan Ying, Yue Huayin, or Xue Qianxun, we all have our own missions.”

“I am your beast husband and the crown prince of the empire. If I cannot even pass a trial like the one on Ocean Star, how will I inherit and manage everything even if I return to interstellar space?”

"The difficulties and challenges of ruling a country are no less than those of passing the Ocean Star Trial. Not to mention, this is just an ancient battlefield."

“Also, we are husband and wife. When we encounter difficulties, husband and wife should work together towards the same goal.” His voice softened.

"You just said there are always more solutions than problems."

If I remember correctly, there was an old Chinese saying: "When husband and wife are of one mind, their strength can break metal."

Sheng Tianze said earnestly, "Lili, you are the strongest dark female in the future interstellar space. If we failed to return from the ancient battlefield, it means that we are not worthy to stand by your side."

Jiang Xinli interrupted him, shaking her head and saying, "Aze, I disagree with that statement."

Sheng Tianze smiled gently, "It's not important."

“Lili, you once said that having no choice is the worst choice.” He reached out and stroked her back. “So, we must go to the ancient battlefield.”

"This is the decision that Xuan Ying and I made when we went to explore the underwater palace to find you."

Jiang Xinli knew their minds were made up, and her eyes reddened. "Aze, didn't you say you would always stay by my side? You haven't been here these past few days, what am I going to do?"

The ancient battlefield where sea creatures undergo trials to enhance their abilities; once entered, one cannot enter unless the trial is successfully completed.

Otherwise, it would be no different from drowning at sea.

“Lili.” Sheng Tianze’s eyes were filled with self-reproach. “We did talk about it. But in the current situation, the opponent’s strength far surpasses ours. Even if we were here, we wouldn’t be able to do anything.”

"So, while we're gone, Lili, you must take good care of yourself." Sheng Tianze's gaze lingered on the ring on her finger.
"If there are special circumstances, we don't necessarily have to wait until the Star Gate opens to summon Lord Baiyao Star in advance, okay?"

"As I understand it, he is not a serious criminal, and this ocean star cannot hold him."

A flicker of pain crossed the man's eyes. "If we can't return on time when the stargate opens, then—"

"We must live well together with Lord Baiyao Star."
