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

Chapter 495 Is Bai Yao Yu Hanche?

He wants her?
Hearing Bai Yao speak so bluntly in public, Jiang Xinli's eyes widened suddenly.

"Ah Yao, you're acting really strange today—"
She lifted her face in his arms, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

The elegant man with long, snow-white hair and emerald eyes like two deep pools of water had lost his usual aloofness and self-restraint, and instead exuded a strong, dark desire that almost devoured her.

The night was too dark, and she couldn't see the fleeting crimson, fiery, and obsessive glint in the man's eyes.

They also failed to see that within that crimson hue, there was a trace of fragile, powerless struggle.

That unfamiliar red, carrying a strong sense of possession and plunder, and a despicable desire to crush her and integrate her into his very bones, completely shattered the last vestiges of restraint.

Yuehua Yin glanced at Bai Yao without making a sound, a barely perceptible smile flashing in her sharp silver eyes.

"Bai Yao!" Hua Xi jumped up suddenly. "Don't go too far!"

Bai Yao raised his eyes, a nearly provocative smile curving his lips as he looked at Hua Xi. "I am Xiao Li's beast husband. If I want her, what's wrong with that?"

"You—" Hua Xi choked, then caught sight of Xue Qianxun out of the corner of her eye and shoved him in front of the two of them.

"The little fox hasn't even sat down to eat yet! If you want a female master, at least ask him if he agrees first!"

"Little peacock, cough, cough cough." Xue Qianxun staggered slightly from his push, and coughed a few times with a half-smile.

He looked tenderly at Jiang Xinli, his melodious voice tinged with a hint of sourness and huskiness.
"As long as the female master is willing, I'm fine with it."

His face wore a handsome smile, but his fox ears and three snow-white tails drooped silently.

Her shimmering peach blossom eyes were slightly tinged with red.

At first glance, it looks like a pitiful little dog that has been casually tossed aside by its owner, yet it's trying to maintain a gentle demeanor.

Jiang Xinli's heart tightened.

Of all her beast husbands, she felt most indebted to Xue Qianxun.

Bai Yao's green eyes swept over the two of them indifferently, a cold smile curving his lips:
"The key to a marriage is mutual affection and a natural progression of things; it doesn't matter who came first or last."

"You!" Hua Xi instantly bristled, looking at Jiang Xinli, "Little Lili, do you think so too?"

"Alright, little peacock." Jiang Xinli hesitated for a moment, looked up at the beastmen, and finally her gaze fell on Xue Qianxun's face. "I have some things I want to ask Bai Yao alone."

Her mind was a bit of a mess.

It wasn't because the beastmen were fighting over Bai Yao again, but because she still couldn't smell that familiar scent of snow on Bai Yao.

Previously, it was thought that Ocean Star had some kind of special restriction.

But now, even though we've returned to Dark Star, we still can't find that aura.

What made her even more uneasy was that Bai Yao today felt both strange and familiar to her.

She remembered that the last time Bai Yao was at his official residence, his pheromone scent had suddenly disappeared.

At that time, he was frantic and turbulent, completely different from his usual self.

She suddenly recalled the bizarre dream she had on Ocean Star.

Bai Yao in front of him and Yu Hanche behind him both possessed the same perfect bodies and incomparably handsome faces.

They were in the sea, fighting over her, and—

Any one of those images made her blush and her heart pound.

Yu Hanche's appearance is clearly different from Bai Yao's.

But Yuehua Yin had told her that Yu Han Che's beast form was a Beast of E's, which was most skilled at changing its appearance and bewitching people.

But he is a dark orc, while Bai Yao is a light orc.

Besides, her Bai Yao has always been so good, how could she be with him—

"Xiao Li, what do you want to ask me?" Bai Yao's voice pulled her back to reality.

The moment the man looked down at her, his eyes and voice became clear and gentle, as if the aggressive man from before had just been her imagination. "I—" Jiang Xinli hesitated, glancing at the beastmen around her.

Bai Yao understood immediately. With a slight flick of his white finger, a high-level soundproof barrier silently descended, enveloping the two of them.

Those outside the barrier could see the two embracing intimately inside, but couldn't hear what they were saying.

Hua Xi was so angry she almost jumped up:

"I never expected that this damn rabbit would learn to use such methods to seduce its female owner!"

Ye Kuo frowned. "The female master seems to have something on her mind."

The remaining men frowned.

Within the boundary.

Bai Yao wrapped his arms tightly around Jiang Xinli's waist, gently lifted her chin with his fingertips, and leaned closer.

His warm breath almost touched her lips, "Little Pear?"

Jiang Xinli turned her head away, avoiding his oppressive and possessive aura, and asked softly:

"Ah Yao, where did your pheromone scent go?"

The man's fingertips clenched almost imperceptibly, then relaxed.

He smiled slightly, a gentle smile playing on his lips. "So, Little Pear, that's what you wanted to ask."

With a flick of his finger, he took out a small potion bottle from his spatial ring:

"I used this to temporarily mask the scent of pheromones. The effect hasn't worn off yet, so you can't smell it."

Jiang Xinli took the bottle with a puzzled look. "Why?"

She had never seen this medicine on the black market.

The bottle is exquisite and looks rare and precious, not belonging to the type of items circulated on Dark Star.

However, it's not surprising that Bai Yao, as the Lord of the Dark Star, could obtain some rare interstellar potions.

"Because—" Bai Yao suddenly lowered his head and placed a light kiss on her lips before continuing.

"Ocean Star is a very special planet. The male sea creatures there generally have high levels of superpowers, and the types of superpowers are very diverse."

I was worried that someone might use pheromones to launch an attack, so I used a drug to conceal it beforehand.

"Really?" Jiang Xinli frowned. "But how can you be sure that when you fell into the spacetime rift, you entered Ocean Star?"

So, is Bai Yao's change each time due to the side effects of the drug?
She herself had even bought pills on the black market to conceal her mental strength and superpower level, so it was understandable that Bai Yao said that.

Perhaps she's been under too much pressure lately and is overthinking things?
But for some reason, Jiang Xinli still felt a little uneasy.

“Of course I can’t be sure. It’s just that I’m used to carrying these medicines with me. But—” He paused, lifting Jiang Xinli’s face with his fingers, his gaze deepening:

"I also have a question for Xiaoli."

Jiang Xinli looked at him, trying to glean some clues from his eyes.

But the other person had deep, handsome features, and all she could see was a deep longing and a surging desire; she saw nothing else.

"What?" she asked softly.

Looking at her face full of doubt and worry, the man felt as if a feather had gently brushed against his heart, making him feel both itchy and tender.

He took her hand, his fingertips gently stroking the white ring, his voice lowering:

"You promised to summon me if you're in danger, why didn't you use it?"

His arms tightened around her waist, and his voice grew deeper.
"There are special restrictions on Ocean Star. If I hadn't been lucky, the entire warship might have entered some alternate dimension during the space jump and never returned."

Then I will be separated from you by death.
