Chapter 281 Catching a turtle in a urn
Because Su Muyao regained some of her childhood memories, she felt an inexplicable sense of closeness when facing Yun Qinglan.

Thinking of what he had said to her, she couldn't bear to refuse.

Perhaps there is no reason to refuse.

She just hadn't decided whether she wanted to take in another beast husband.

Su Muyao looked up at Yun Qinglan's worried expression and said, "I'm fine. Those soldiers were mainly looking for Yan Zhaoye, and they also arrested Liu Mengyan while they were at it."

Yun Qinglan looked at her carefully with his handsome features, and only after confirming that she was really alright did he breathe a sigh of relief. "It's good that you're alright."

His only worry was her.

"I knew the Liu family had been sealed off, so I guessed that something might be related to them."

"After arriving in Beast King City, I heard some things from the past. I learned that Liu Mengyan is always causing you trouble, and I'm worried that she has done something to you again."

Yun Qinglan was not very clear about many of the things that had happened in Beast King City in the past.

During his visit to the Beast King City, he had people investigate many things, all of which were related to her.

When he learned what she had gone through, he felt heartbroken but didn't know what he could do for her.

Su Muyao explained, "She did want to do something to me, but she didn't have time to carry it out."

"She is not the real daughter of the Liu family. Her true form is a spider beastman, but she uses a magical artifact to conceal it, so it cannot be seen."

Su Muyao trusted Yun Qinglan, which is why she was willing to tell him these things.

Upon hearing the name Spider Beastman, even the usually composed Yun Qinglan was taken aback.

"According to ancient records, tens of thousands of years ago, the Spider Beastmen belonged to the insectoid beastmen. They possessed unique secret techniques that allowed them to increase their strength by harming innocent beastmen. As a result, they were suppressed in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land by the powerful figures of the Wushan Temple at that time."

"The Nine Nether Forbidden Land imprisons many sinful beasts. It is said that the environment there is treacherous, resources and spiritual energy are extremely scarce, and the surrounding sea is the Endless Sea, which is full of ancient ferocious beasts and endless dangers. Even if the seal of the Nine Nether Forbidden Land is lifted, those beastmen will not be able to cross the Endless Sea. Logically speaking, the beastmen of the Nine Nether Forbidden Land should not be able to come out, let alone come to the Beastman Continent."

Yun Qinglan used to be in poor health and had a habit of reading all kinds of books, including the ancient books of the Yun clan.

Hearing this, Su Muyao's expression hardened, and she pondered, "Perhaps some escaped when they were sealed away back then, or perhaps they have some secret method to send the orcs out."

However, Su Muyao thought it was very likely that the Spider Beastman sent Liu Mengyan out.

When they used time travel to see Liu Mengyan's secret, she and her servant said that they must complete the mission for the sake of her people.

It looks like the spider orcs brought them here.

Yun Qinglan's handsome features also showed a hint of solemnity as he said, "If that's the case, then there might be other hidden spider beastmen on our continent."

Su Muyao said, "Liu Mengyan has been captured. Her identity must be quite extraordinary to the spider beastmen, so we can use her to lure out the other spider beastmen."

Liu Mengyan is currently being interrogated in prison. Once all the information is extracted, she can be used to lure out the Spider Beastmen and capture them all in one fell swoop.

Despite saying that, Yun Qinglan still said with concern, "We still need to be careful."

"If there's anything I can do for you, just tell me."

Yun Qinglan had a feeling of unease for some reason. He was worried about Su Muyao and afraid that she would get hurt.

He wanted to stay by her side, but he also didn't want to be presumptuous or abrupt with her.

Moreover, she now has her beast husband protecting her.

Su Muyao nodded and said, "Yes, I know. Don't worry, and you need to take good care of yourself too."

Yun Qinglan felt a warmth in her heart from Su Muyao's concern, and was even a little overwhelmed with gratitude.

He put down the pastries he had made, saying, "These are medicinal pastries I made; I hope you like them."

Yun Qinglan knew that Su Muyao was a very good cook and could make all kinds of delicious food, but he wanted to be good to her but didn't know how to do it, so he learned to make some medicinal desserts.

"Try it and see."

Yun Qinglan looked at Su Muyao with an expectant expression. Su Muyao nodded and picked up one to eat.

She smiled, her eyes crinkling, and said, "Yes, it tastes great, thank you."

"You're welcome, I'm glad you like it." Yun Qinglan stayed with Su Muyao for a while before reluctantly preparing to leave.

Actually, they had known each other since they were little, and they had spent a lot of time together. She even said some things to him when she was a child.

He still remembered everything, but she didn't, so he didn't say anything more.

He didn't want to put pressure or burden on her.

Meeting the deep affection in Yun Qinglan's eyes, Su Muyao said, "Why don't you stay for dinner tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Qinglan's eyes instantly lit up with joy, as if she were immersed in the gentle warmth of melting snow in the spring waters of March.

"it is good."

Wen Nanxi and the others were not surprised to learn that Yun Qinglan had stayed for dinner.

When they were in the Beiluo tribe, Yun Qinglan would sometimes stay for a meal.

Su Muyao led everyone in eating hot pot.

Wen Nanxi remembered Su Muyao saying that hot pot was the best thing to eat after winter started. After eating hot pot twice, they knew how to make it.

On ordinary days, Wen Nanxi and the others would make some meatballs and store them so they could just take them out when they wanted to eat hot pot.

For dinner, everyone gathered together and enjoyed a pleasant meal.

Yun Qinglan really enjoyed the lively and warm atmosphere. He especially wanted to become her beast husband and integrate into the family, but he didn't know if he would have the chance.

After dinner, Yun Qinglan helped tidy up before leaving.

As he walked out of the Su residence, facing the swirling snow, he suddenly seemed to sense something, and the supernatural power in his hand burst forth, heading straight into the shadows.

Suddenly, countless men in black, who had been hiding in the shadows, surged out, and many spider-beastmen transformed into their true forms and attacked the Su residence.

While using her supernatural abilities to hold off the assassins in black, Yun Qinglan shouted, "Assassins!"

Upon hearing Yun Qinglan's words, Su Muyao leaped up from inside the house and into the courtyard. At the same time, she gently moved her feet, activating the array that had been set up on the ground.

A protective shield condensed above the Su residence.

Wen Nanxi and the others also appeared beside Su Muyao in an instant, forming a protective circle around her.

Su Muyao said to Yun Qinglan, "Hurry up and come into the courtyard."

Yun Qinglan dealt with the two men in black and leaped into the courtyard.

Su Muyao pulled him to a stop in one of the places and said, "Just stand here and don't move."

"They've come at the perfect time; they're just the right person to catch us like turtles in a jar."

Since returning to Beast Emperor City and settling back into the Su residence, Su Muyao had made preparations well in advance.

She set up a protective array.

This formation can serve as a protective barrier, preventing them from breaking into the Su residence and killing the innocent servants.

The moment the formation was activated, dozens of spider beastmen rushed in, manipulating their spider silk to attack Su Muyao.

However, it was blocked by the power of the array barrier.

"Kill her!"

The spider-beastmen stared intently at Su Muyao; Su Muyao was the person they wanted to kill.

Despite being protected by the array barrier, Wen Nanxi and his group fired their hidden weapons, killing several spider beastmen instantly.

Just then, a man in black emerged from among the spider beastmen. He was shrouded in a black robe, but possessed a level twelve supernatural aura.

He said in a chilling voice, "Hmph, a mere trick."

As he spoke, his earth-based superpowers erupted, cracking the ground like a spider web. Accompanied by a piercing sound, countless earth spikes burst forth from the ground like fangs sharpened with cold light.
