Chapter 455 The only one who could leave the mark is him!
Seeing Jiang Xinli looking at the flawed full moon sand in his palm with a worried expression, Yun Bo couldn't help but rub her snow-white rabbit ears and smiled gently:

"Didn't my little bride also think about sleeping with me beforehand?"

He took her fair and delicate hand in his and gently stroked it. "How come you can't take it after just one kiss?"

What else is there to say? S-rank is S-rank.

Who's afraid of whom?

Although he didn't understand what "who" meant.

However, based on the context, it probably means "who".

His little bunny bride, sometimes, is as fierce as a tiger or wolf.

Sometimes, she's adorably timid.

"I—" Jiang Xinli was speechless for a moment.

She and Yunbo had analyzed that it was very likely that Jinyuan would take advantage of the opportunity of Yunbo and her getting together after the wedding to possess him.

That's why that thought popped into her head at that moment.

But now——

However, how did Yunbo know that she had decided to sleep with him beforehand if things really didn't work out?

Just as the thought "Ling Yuan said he has the ability to read minds" was about to pop into her mind, Yun Bo pulled her into his arms and leaned down towards her, saying, "Actually, I have a secret to tell you."

Jiang Xinli collected her thoughts, looked up at him, and asked, "What?"

The girl's clear, beautiful doe eyes were still moist and swollen.

Yunbo felt a sudden, inexplicable pain in his heart.

He pulled her closer to him before saying, "I have mind-reading abilities."

"To be precise, as long as the distance is right, I can hear everyone's thoughts."

"So, from the very first moment I met you, I knew exactly what you were thinking."

Jiang Xinli held her breath.

The feeling was distinctly different when I learned from Ling Yuan that he had the ability to read minds compared to hearing it from him in person.

“You—” Jiang Xinli didn’t know what to say.

However, from the moment Yun Bo appeared until just now, she had no idea that Ling Yuan had told her about his mind-reading ability.

So, could it be considered that he prematurely exposed himself?
Why should I tell her proactively?

Yunbo looked at her. "Surprised? Aren't you?"

Jiang Xinli: "...A little."

"Aren't you angry?" Yun Bo stopped stroking her palm.
"After all, I was like a shameless thief, eavesdropping on your thoughts."

Jiang Xinli frowned. "It might be because—"

"Is it because my little bunny bride doesn't care about me that much?" Yun Bo lay down, picked her up with both hands, and sat her on his lap.

The two were face to face, very close.

The posture was also quite ambiguous.

Jiang Xinli turned her head away and struggled, saying, "Yun Bo, your wound hasn't healed yet, put me down quickly."

"It's already healing." The man smiled.
So, you actually have feelings for me, but you just don't want to admit it.

Because you are afraid.

"At first, you thought this was just an illusion, and then you realized that we were all virtual characters."

Even if I convince you later that this is not an illusion, you will still subconsciously feel that this place does not actually exist.

"Because you've been running away from me, you're afraid that if you really fall in love with me, you'll get hurt, right?"

He seemed to understand something. "I think I suddenly understand what you mean by NPC now."

“But I’m not an NPC, Miss Xinli, I’m a living, breathing person.”

Jiang Xinli fell silent.

She is currently feeling very confused.

Especially today, after Yunbo learned that she had been kidnapped by Lingyuan, he disregarded the consequences and came out of the Holy Tomb ahead of time to look for her.

She had only met C'Thun once, and he died protecting her.

Mentioning C'Thun, Jiang Xinli's nose tingled, and her eyes welled up with tears. She remembered the little black octopus that Yun Bo had kept, "Right, His Highness C'Thun..."

“Here.” Yun Bo lightly touched the dark purple water-repelling bead on her chest with his finger.

Jiang Xinli was taken aback, and took out the water-repelling bead. "Here?"

"Mm." Yun Bo took the water-repelling bead from her hand.

"The water-repelling pearl of a male sea creature is very difficult for others to take away unless the creature itself is willing."

"And this water-repelling pearl that I gave you will become yours once we consummate our marriage."

"From now on, as long as you don't give your consent, no one can take it away from you."

"And the high-grade water-repelling pearl of the Sea Clan royal family has another hidden function." Yun Bo said, gently tossing the water-repelling pearl into the air with his long, slender, pale fingers.

A streak of dark purple light flashed—

A water-repelling bead the size of a fingertip projected a circular light and shadow into the void.

Jiang Xinli held her breath.

Behind the thin purple mist, there were shimmering blue waves!

In the waves, a small black octopus is gently bobbing up and down.

“My water-repelling bead contains the real ocean. That’s why I put C’Thun inside it.”

With a flick of his finger, Yun Bo created a tiny black octopus the size of a fingertip in his palm.

He reached out his hand. "Want to touch him? He'd probably appreciate your touch."

Jiang Xinli stretched out her finger and gently tapped the back of the little octopus.

A thin, soft tentacle gently curled around her finger.

"This!" Jiang Xinli's eyes widened in an instant.

Yunbo, "He seems to have a lot of affection for you."

Jiang Xinli was immediately shocked and overjoyed, "So, he's really still alive?!"

"But I clearly saw that he had already—" She suddenly realized,

"No wonder those dead sea creatures floated up with green energy and flew towards the Holy Land."

But I didn't see those green dots on C'Thun at the time.

She was too busy crying to see clearly, so she thought her vision was just blurred by her tears.

"It's because I used a secret technique of the sea race to replace him—you can understand it as a form of rebirth."

"Reborn??" Jiang Xinli exclaimed in surprise. "Does he still have his memories?"

Yun Bo nodded, "His memories and abilities will remain to some extent, but not completely."

However, as his body gradually recovers, his memories and supernatural abilities will also gradually return.

What Yunbo didn't say was that he lost a considerable amount of his abilities in order to save C'Thun.

He didn't want his younger brother, who had lived his entire life in a cage of despair, to die so tragically before ever seeing the light of day again.

He didn't want his brother to die trying to save the girl he loved.

That means she will never let go of him in her heart for the rest of her life.

He admitted that his thoughts were shameful.

But in doing so, he sacrificed himself to gain the chance to leave an indelible mark on her heart forever.

It can only be him, not anyone else.

Jiang Xinli suddenly remembered something, "The secret technique you just mentioned, can everyone use it?"

“No,” Yun Bo shook his head.
“Sea creatures have long lifespans, and C'Thun has not yet reached its appointed time, so this kind of secret technique can be used.”

"He is still very weak and cannot stay away from the sea for too long."

Yunbo put the little octopus back into the water-repellent bead.

The water-repelling bead shrank back to its original size and returned to Yunbo's hand.

Yunbo handed her the water-repelling bead, "Is it okay for him to stay inside from now on?"

"Of course!" Jiang Xinli excitedly reached out and took it, asking curiously.
"Will he be able to return to human form in the future?"
