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

Chapter 646: Did she take him as her beastly husband?

Yu Hanche sat down beside her and watched quietly.

Jiang Xinli first drew three circles on the paper, labeling them "Secret Realm 1", "Ocean Star", and "Secret Realm 2" respectively.

After frowning and pondering for a while, she drew three more circles: "Black Dragon (Winged Clan)", "Golden Dragon (?)", and "Stone Clan".

Jiang Xinli's handwriting was messy, and Yu Hanche couldn't understand it even after looking at it for a long time.

His gaze unconsciously fell on the girl's beautiful profile.

A strand of hair fell down, and he wanted to fix it for her.

But she frowned and withdrew her hand.

He thought for a moment, then took out a packet of lychee-flavored nutritional supplement and gently brought it to her lips.

She likes this flavor, based on information gathered by Night Owl.

Jiang Xinli was lost in thought when she subconsciously opened her mouth and took a few breaths.

After a while, she put down her pen, stared at the circles for a moment, and then her eyes suddenly lit up.
"I think I've figured some things out!"

She reached out and patted the man's arm beside her, then turned her head in surprise, only to meet a pair of deep, smiling red eyes.

She then realized that she had been so focused that she subconsciously thought she had returned to the time when she was reviewing the trials with the beastmen.

The surprise and delight in the girl's eyes faded gradually, replaced by a hint of embarrassment.

He naturally understood how to keep warm.

Without making a sound, he raised his hand and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "What has Dark Lord thought of? Tell me."

Jiang Xinli coughed lightly, hiding her embarrassment, "This secret realm doesn't exist independently. It should be related to Secret Realm 1 and Ocean Star."

He handed her the nutrient solution closer. "What do you mean?"

Jiang Xinli did not answer, but asked, "When you used your spatial power to probe today, did you not sense any other places with life besides the City of Sacred Beasts?"

“Yes.” Yu Hanche nodded. “However, my spatial power is limited. There may be other life forms outside my perception range, so it’s not certain.”

He asked, "What does this mean?"

"Me and Ah—", the word "Yao" was on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed it back.

It's not that I'm afraid of the cold, but rather that I have other ideas.

However, she now felt that since she had arrived at the City of Sacred Beasts, she had already entered the formal trial phase.

We can no longer waste our time and energy on pointless arguments.

"The first secret realm I experienced was an ancient forest. There were many plants there, including many that had mutated and gained supernatural abilities."

The very top of that last giant tree is truly a god among plants.

Jiang Xinli continued, "And this secret realm, as it stands, has very few plants, but quite a few types of animals."

Although they didn't encounter many orcs after entering the dungeon.

However, the guards, priests, and life forms that Yu Hanche sensed living in the underground palace that he encountered along the way were not few.

"Therefore, this is a secret realm dominated by animals."

Jiang Xinli took a deep breath. "If I'm not mistaken, this is related to the Dark Female and Jin Yuan."

She handed him her scribbles, lightly touching the "Ocean Star" with her pen:

"A thousand years ago, male orcs from the sea and land tribes gained the ability to awaken supernatural powers from the Abyss of Ashes."

"In order to control the mental turmoil value of using superpowers, the females obtained the ability to awaken mental power from the dark females."

"I only knew before that the secret of the source of male superpowers and female spiritual power existed on Ocean Star."

But I never considered where the abilities and mental power of Jin Yuan and the Dark Female came from.

Yu Hanche seemed to be deep in thought. "You mean, the first secret realm is mainly composed of plants, and it is most likely the place where you used to be your source of energy."

The Plant Realm is responsible for nurturing wood-based supernatural abilities.

This also explains, to some extent, why Jiang Xinli awakened a wood-type ability. "This place is very likely the source of Jin Yuan's energy. No wonder—" he narrowed his red eyes slightly, "this place is called the hometown of the sacred beasts."

Jiang Xinli nodded, "Yes. So we can be sure that the sacred beast is Jin Yuan."

She tapped the tip of her pen on "Secret Realm 1":
"Another point is that the scents of both female and male pheromones are plant-like. I always felt that this was not a coincidence."

Many things are tangled together like yarn.

But she felt that as long as she found this thread before returning to the final destination, all the problems would be solved.

But what is this loose thread?
Yu Hanche was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Among your several Holy Royal Clan beast husbands, is there anyone whose special ability is more unique?"

He didn't want to mention her several beastly husbands at all.

But the situation is special now, and he has no choice but to ask.

Sure enough, as soon as the question arose, Jiang Xinli glanced at her wrist-based personal terminal and frowned.

Since entering the City of Sacred Beasts, all she has been thinking about is what this secret realm trial will be like.
They temporarily put the few beastmen aside.

Her heart sank when Yu Hanche said that.

There was still no signal from the optical computer.

I wonder how those beastmen are doing in the ultimate land.

Yu Hanche's eyes darkened slightly. "Dark Lord? Shall we continue?"

Jiang Xinli's thoughts were interrupted, and she could only temporarily suppress the worries and longing in her heart.

She paused for a moment, then said, "Sheng Tianze is a space-type and healing-type cultivator."

Now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide anything from Yu Hanche.

She doesn't like him.

However, when it comes to leaving the secret realm and dealing with the Abyss of Ember, the two are definitely on the same side.

Thinking of this, she said, "He also has a hidden ability: he can return the pheromone attacks he obtains to the attackers intact."

As for mind reading, that's a secret between her and Sheng Tianze, and there's no need to tell outsiders.

"In interstellar space, this is called mental penetration," Yu Hanche explained patiently.
"Legend has it that the Twelve Great Holy Royal Clans are twelve male beastmen who obtained and awakened the bloodline of ancient holy beasts."

Only the leader of the twelve great holy royal families possesses the ability to counteract negative influences.

The word "backlash" was used by Sheng Tianze and Jiang Xinli.

Unexpectedly, Yu Hanche also knew about it.

Jiang Xinli said, "It seems that the only thing that can counteract the backlash is devouring."

However, whether it's devouring or backlash, the amount of energy is related to the level of the superpower.

After thinking for a moment, she told Yu Hanche about how Jiang Wanwan had resisted Sheng Tianze's "backlash" ability.

"She's a fake Dark Female, so naturally she wouldn't have this ability." Yu Hanche scoffed coldly, reaching out to grasp her palm.

"Dark Lord, the Devouring ability originally belonged to the Dark Female. Therefore, this is your hidden ability that has not yet been awakened."

Jiang Xinli felt a sense of relief.

In the first secret realm, she obtained the missing memories and Star Soul fragments.

The Star Soul Fragment, combined with the energy of the Cloud Platinum Trident, enabled her to successfully defeat the remnant soul of the Abyss on Ocean Star.

If what Yu Hanche said is true.

So, what she gained in this secret realm might be the "devouring" ability?
If that's really the case—

Therefore, the chances of defeating Jinyuan have increased even further.
