With her spatial ability to raise beast husbands, the wicked female becomes the darling of the group

Chapter 456 Day and Night Thoughts

Su Muyao couldn't bear to see Wen Nanxi like this, and a metallic taste of blood instantly welled up in her throat.

But Su Muyao suppressed it tightly. She knew that Xiao Jihan was still by her side, and she didn't want Xiao Jihan to worry.

Su Muyao took a deep breath, quickly stepped forward, and squatted down.

"Nanxi, Nanxi..."

Su Muyao looked at his shocking wounds and dared not call out to him loudly, calling his name softly in a trembling voice.

But Wen Nanxi was completely unaware.

As soon as Su Muyao's fingertips touched his cold scales, she felt a faint spiritual energy flow from her fingertips, which then quickly dissipated, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

The system was shocked and said, "Host, Wen Nanxi's spiritual energy is being devoured by these bronze pillars and chains. His aura is extremely weak, and his spiritual energy is almost completely dissipated. No wonder he can no longer maintain his human form."

"At this rate, he will die soon."

"However, the layout here is quite similar to that of the Merfolk's courtyard."

The Merfolk Court of the Sea Clan was established long ago, and those punishment formations and mechanisms were also built long ago.

This pyramid chamber is similar to the punishment and restrictions of the Mermaid Court.

Is this pyramid-shaped ritual object somehow connected to, or closely related to, the merfolk's court?

Clearly, Su Muyao had also thought of this.

But now is not the time to investigate these things; she needs to save Wen Nanxi first.

She carefully stroked his snake body; there was hardly a spot that was intact. It was covered in wounds, with mottled bloodstains on the flesh, and there were also many dried bloodstains on the ground.

His snake-like body was much thinner than before.

Su Muyao's eyes reddened, and she touched Wen Nanxi with trembling hands, while continuously injecting her wood-type supernatural power into Wen Nanxi's body.

Although he used his powerful wood-type abilities to heal Wen Nanxi's injuries.

However, his injuries were not ordinary. Only his external injuries could heal, but his body remained extremely weak and his breath grew weaker and weaker.

"Nanxi..."

Seeing Wen Nanxi like this, Su Muyao felt extremely distressed.

Su Muyao felt that his mental sea was about to collapse. She tried to enter his mental sea to soothe his mind, but she could not enter.

Su Muyao was extremely anxious, "Has his spirit been damaged?"

The system said, "That's how it is. That's why wood-type abilities are useless now. He's dying, so he's completely unconscious, and his mental sea is shut down. Even you, the host, can't enter it."

"If your wood-based abilities can't heal him, then his soul has been damaged. His spiritual energy and abilities are completely gone; it seems he only has one breath left."

"We may be too late."

Even the system felt quite sad, never expecting Wen Nanxi to become like this.

The color drained from Su Muyao's face, but then she suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "That's right, Immortal Dew."

The elixir can repair the soul.

At this moment, Su Muyao was extremely grateful to her for having the celestial dew in her hand.

Otherwise, she really wouldn't know what to do right now.

She absolutely cannot lose Wen Nanxi.

Suddenly, there was a sound outside, and Su Muyao's heart skipped a beat.

Xiao Jihan said in a low voice, "I'll go outside and keep watch, don't worry."

Even if someone tries to break through, he can buy time for Su Muyao.

Su Muyao nodded.

Xiao Jihan went to the hidden door, while Su Muyao quickly took out a bottle of immortal dew to feed Wen Nanxi the immortal dew.

But Wen Nanxi was completely unaware of what was happening and refused to drink.

"Nanxi, it's me. This is celestial dew. Drinking it will make you better." Su Muyao whispered these words in Wen Nanxi's ear, but it was no use.

The celestial dew is flowing out.

The system said, "Host, this is not a solution."

"After observing them, I realized that these bronze pillars are not ordinary pillars. The chains connecting them are specifically designed to extract Wen Nanxi's spiritual energy, abilities, and innate blood power."

"They're similar to the pillars we saw in the abandoned temple before."

“Host, I suddenly feel that the snake sculptures on the pillars of the abandoned temple were not sculptures. They may have originally been living snake-beastmen who had their souls, spirits, and blood essence drained by the pillars and eventually turned into sculptures.”

Hearing the system's words, Su Muyao's fingers trembled, and her voice shook. "You mean, those were all living things, and if Wen Nanxi loses her breath, she will turn into a snake sculpture?"

Just thinking about it made Su Muyao feel a surge of bloodthirsty rage.

"Who on earth is so cruel? It's Nan Feng!"

The system said, "It may not be Nan Feng. Nan Feng may also be a snake beastman who is being used, or a snake beastman who is cooperating with the forces behind him."

"Because the site of that abandoned temple is estimated to be hundreds of thousands of years old, and the sculptures may also be hundreds of thousands of years old."

A bloodshot killing intent flashed in Su Muyao's eyes. "Indeed cruel."

Su Muyao thought of the powerful force behind the snake god's words.

This thing can extract all the power, spiritual energy, and talents of the snake beastmen and turn them into statues; ordinary power simply cannot do this.

"The layout here is actually quite similar to the place where the Xiao family imprisoned Xiao Jihan and the Mermaid Court."

Su Muyao's expression shifted upon hearing the system's words.

"So you mean there's a force specifically targeting my beastmen?"

The system said, "That might be the case, or perhaps your beastmen themselves have something special about them."

Su Muyao knew that their talents were indeed very strong. She wondered if the forces behind them were afraid of something or if they wanted to specifically target them.

Perhaps it's also related to her.

Su Muyao's expression hardened. "I'll save Nanxi first." With that, she prepared to drink the immortal dew and feed it to Wen Nanxi.

The system said, "Host, you still need to cut these chains first. Otherwise, before Wen Nanxi can absorb the Immortal Dew you just fed her, this bronze pillar will devour all of Wen Nanxi's recovered strength through the chains."

Su Muyao nodded intently and took out her Azure Lotus Sword to cut the chains.

At the Xiao family's residence, she could cut the chains there, but the chains here were different; they seemed to be made of something much tougher.

So only a few traces were left, but the chains could not be broken.

The system said, "This is a special kind of ore. I just vaguely remembered it, but I can't quite recall it."

Su Muyao suddenly thought of Ni Lin.

She took out the Reverse Scale and used it in conjunction with the Azure Lotus Sword to cut the chains.

The devouring spiritual energy vanished instantly.

Su Muyao quickly drank a few sips of the immortal dew, hugged Wen Nanxi, and fed it to him.

When Su Muyao's lips touched his, even though Wen Nanxi was unaware, the love deep in his subconscious made him feel a familiar scent and an instinctive longing. He instinctively opened his mouth, letting Su Muyao feed him the elixir.

The moment the celestial dew was fed to Wen Nanxi, Wen Nanxi's body, soul, and blood began to recover rapidly.

Before long, Wen Nanxi automatically returned to human form.

Then he slowly opened his eyes.

"Ah...Ah Yao?"

The moment Wen Nanxi saw Su Muyao, he couldn't believe it, thinking he might be dreaming again.

"Am I dead?"

He even felt that he might die before he could see the person he longed for day and night.
