Their true feelings revealed: the beastly husbands are working themselves to the bone every night.

Chapter 140 You'd better not touch my people.

Xiao Jiu: "Host, it seems like a fight has broken out outside."

Su Mo frowned and remained silent, listening to what sounded like the clash of swords.

It's just that it's quite far away, so I don't know very well.

Xiao Jiu asked excitedly, "Could it be those guys coming to kill us?"

Su Mo frowned. If they really couldn't find her, it shouldn't be difficult for them to escape unscathed, given their fighting skills, right?

At this moment, behind her room.

Canglan's whereabouts have been exposed, and he is already locked in a fierce battle with a group of people!
As a level six orc, dealing with Jin Tong's subordinates was naturally a piece of cake for him.

At this moment, he was like a demon from hell, his golden beastly eyes filled with bloodlust.

His signature move is the Wind Claw, which utilizes his explosive power and the unique claw advantage of the leopard orc.

A precise strike hits the enemy's vital point, killing them instantly.

The speed was so fast that the opponent couldn't react at all. Like a blur, a group of people fell to the ground in an instant!
He didn't even use his full strength, yet he easily knocked down a group of them.

The glaring blood dripped from Canglan's fingertips. Canglan's sharp eyes swept over the remaining people, his gaze filled with an almost pathological indifference.

"I want to take my wife with me!"

"You want to take her away? We'll talk about that when we get to the King of Hell!"

The next second, Canglan felt the fierce moves approaching.

He frowned slightly, turned his body precisely to avoid the opponent's attack, and forcefully received the opponent's attack.

As Jin Tong's capable subordinate, Lin Shan's skills were naturally not weak.

His rank is even one level higher than Canglan's.

When Mo Xiao followed the marks of Canglan, he saw that Canglan and Lin Shan were already locked in a fierce battle.

Although Canglan's moves were fierce, his level was lower than Linshan's, and he gradually found it difficult to cope.

Seeing that Lin Shan was about to use a trick, Mo Xiao flew to Cang Lan's side and deflected the three poison needles that the other party was throwing at him.

In an instant, only a few afterimages remained in the air as the three figures moved like lightning.

Mo Xiao and Cang Lan's moves were fierce and their coordination was excellent. Lin Shan was forced to retreat continuously by Mo Xiao's palm strikes.

A trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his lips. He frowned and said to his subordinates, "Go! The sect leader will reward those who capture him handsomely! Life or death is irrelevant!"

Mo Xiao frowned and said to Cang Lan, "We shouldn't stay here any longer. Let's get out of here as soon as possible!"

Canglan frowned, but before he could speak, another group of people surged in from outside.

Among them were many high-ranking orcs.

Jin Tong stood abruptly in the crowd, and coldly commanded, "Kill!"

A flash of cold light filled the air, and the scene became chaotic and unbearable to watch.

Canglan and Moxiao were outnumbered, and the situation became increasingly dire.

Jin Tong had been observing the battle from a distance the entire time, but gradually lost patience and darted into the battlefield like a shadow. Every move he made was aimed directly at the weaknesses of Cang Lan and Mo Xiao, ruthless and vicious, leaving no room for evasion!

Both Mo Xiao and Cang Lan understood that continuing this entanglement would not give them any advantage.

Seeing Jin Tong's fierce attacks closing in again, in a moment of crisis, Cang Lan pushed Mo Xiao, who was beside him, several feet away and roared, "Run!"

Mo Xiao's eyes darkened, and then he swiftly leaped to the mountaintop, disappearing into the night at the speed of light.

Outside the cave.

Fei Yan watched as Mo Xiao returned alone, his dark robes stained with obvious dark bloodstains, and his body bearing several abrasions.

He frowned.

This situation is likely more complicated than they imagined.

Yueying couldn't help but frown.

Now that Canglan is also trapped in the mountains, it gives Jintong another bargaining chip.

Fei Yan said with a solemn expression, "Jiang Wu, who led the attack on the Tiger Clan last time, is also nearby, and the situation is unfavorable for us. The Third Young Master has already returned to the Tiger Clan to borrow men, and Ye Yuan has returned to the East Sea to gather troops."

“Let’s stay here for now and wait for them to come and gather their men. The current situation is not suitable for any rash actions. Jin Tong used his wife as bait to lure us here, and it’s very likely that he wants to wipe us out in one fell swoop.”

A cold glint flashed in Yueying's eyes: "If they want to fight, they should just say so. Capturing my wife is simply courting death!"

Mo Xiao glanced at the snake clan soldiers behind him.

He didn't bring many people with him because this place is close to the north wing, and they need to prevent the enemy from launching a surprise attack on the north wing. They need to strengthen their defenses tonight.

Footsteps sounded behind me in the silence.

The three of them turned around and saw Long Yan rushing towards them, looking travel-worn and full of worry.

He had intended to ask about Mo Xiao's current condition, but after seeing the injuries on Mo Xiao's body, he didn't bring up the topic again.

"Young Master Snake, I have already gone back to gather the elite soldiers of the Dragon Clan, and they are on their way now." Long Yan looked at Mo Xiao with piercing eyes, his words firm and resolute: "If there is anything I can do to help, please give the order!"

Mo Xiao frowned and nodded: "Okay."

Moonshadow disliked this shameless dragon general intensely, but now was not the time to chase him away.

Su Mo and Xiao Jiu listened at the window for a while longer. After the fighting outside ended, it seemed that someone had mobilized soldiers.
Judging from the footsteps outside, Su Mo deduced that Jin Tong had left quite a few people here.

But now she's being watched by Jin Tong like a thief, and can't get out at all, so she can't figure out what's going on inside.

[We still need to find a way to go out and investigate the situation!]

[We can't keep him locked up like this forever. Does he really think I'm someone easy to talk to?!]

At that time, in Jin Tong's study, Jiang Wu was sitting there leisurely drinking tea.

They listened to Lin Shan report on the situation outside.

"Oh? So they went back to get reinforcements?" Lin Shan nodded: "Yes."

Jiang Wu raised an eyebrow at Jin Tong, who remained silent: "The people from the East Sea and the North Wing are one thing, but if we add the Dragon Clan and the Tiger Clan, are you sure you can handle them, Sect Master?"

Jin Tong sneered, "Isn't there still City Lord Jiang Wu?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the red figure gracefully appeared in front of him, looking at him with seductive eyes.

"Beg me~ beg me properly, and I'll consider it, okay?"

Jiang Wu is naturally alluring; her face alone can easily bewitch all beings. She has the face of a born leading lady.

If someone deliberately seduces you at this moment, even if they don't surrender, they will at least be tempted.

But Jin Tong's gaze remained icy cold, devoid of any warmth.

That indifferent expression made Jiang Wu look like a clown.

She revealed the allure in her eyes, adopting that venomous expression.

"Your heart is so hard, sir, that it is just like that of an old friend of mine."

She suddenly changed her tone, and Jin Tong couldn't help but frown. She glanced at her but didn't ask any further questions.

Jiang Wu curled her lips and uttered two words indifferently: "Silver Velvet".

Jin Tong asked without changing his expression, "Who is he?"

Jiang Wu chuckled softly, then turned away gracefully: "Let's not talk about it. He was never an obedient person. By now, the grass on his grave must be three feet high. It's late, Lord Jintong, you should go to sleep early. I'll head back now!"

Although Jin Tong had disguised himself very well, she still saw his hand clench slightly.

No wonder he remained unmoved despite her repeated attempts to seduce him.

My old friend, if that's the case, then it's even more interesting!

She'd seen plenty of reincarnated individuals and transmigrators; in the end, they were all just like that...

She, Jiang Wu, is the true female lead; she is destined to become the ruler of this world!

Aci came over and asked, "Why didn't you let Jintong hand over Su Mo's beast husband to you, my lady?"

Jiang Wu said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. If he's obedient, we'll keep him; if not, he'll die with them!"

"Have all the troops I asked you to mobilize been transferred?"

A sinister smile flashed across Aci's face; "Rest assured, City Lord, when have I ever failed to do my best in the tasks you assign me?"

After saying that, he reached out and hooked his arm around Jiang Wu's waist: "It's still early, let's go to my room first, and I'll talk to you slowly~"

The next second, Jiang Wu hooked her finger around his collar and glanced at him, then coldly pushed him away: "I promised Ruoxu tonight, so you'd better stand in line!"

Useless thing, we've slept together so many times and we still haven't formed a bond.

Besides asking her for upgrade pills, what else can I do?!

In Jin Tong's study, Lin Shan said in a deep voice, "Sect Master, Jiang Wu has gathered another group of people. In my opinion, we should take advantage of this opportunity tonight to make a move on Su Mo's fiancés! Once they have gathered all their forces, it will only be more disadvantageous for us!"

Jin Tong frowned almost imperceptibly. He knew that those people cherished Su Mo like their own lives, but the involvement of the Tiger Clan and the Dragon Clan was indeed a bit unexpected.

They're really taking this woman, who has absolutely no fighting skills and is even cunning, seriously. They're a bunch of useless trash!
Lin Shan continued, "What I fear most is that we'll fight those guys to the death, and then Jiang Wu will take advantage of our momentary lapse in attention to stab us in the back, ultimately reaping the benefits."

Jin Tong frowned. Judging from Jiang Wu's personality, this was definitely her plan.

"Keep them calm for seven days."

He is currently undergoing detoxification and cannot use his internal energy freely for the next seven days.

The next day, Su Mo started banging on the door and shouting early in the morning.

"Call your sect leader over. I have something to discuss with him."

Jin Tong arrived half an hour later.

The door opened, and he looked at the person in front of him with eyes as deep and unfathomable as an ancient well.

"What's all this fuss about? If you want to die, just say so!"

Su Mo raised an eyebrow and said, "The herbs you found are wrong. I'm going to go find them myself!"

"Don't even think about playing tricks. Whatever you need, just have someone bring it to you."

Su Mo sneered: "Is that all the courage you have? You're on your own turf, and you're afraid I'll cause trouble? If that's the case, I suggest you don't take my medicine!"

Jin Tong narrowed his eyes and asked, "You think this provocation will work on me?"

"It may be useless, but I just want adults to know that cooperation requires a cooperative attitude. I am not your caged bird."

"There are some things I don't need to say, but you already know. Since you've stopped taking Jiang Wu's medicine, you should understand that yesterday's medicine was only to suppress it. If there isn't a stronger medicine to suppress it today, the toxins will immediately backfire. Don't blame me then..."

Before Su Mo could finish speaking, he grabbed her by the neck: "I'll kill you right now!"

Su Mo said with a flushed face, "You know very well that this is the process of detoxification. These seven days are the most crucial. If you can't hold on, you will also die! That's why the master is reluctant to kill me. Your threats are useless to me now!"

Jin Tong's grip on her neck tightened uncontrollably, but in the end, he only managed to throw her to the ground.

He said coldly to the people outside, "Stay close to her every step of the way. If anything goes wrong, you'll all lose your heads!"

Su Mo stood up from the ground and called out to the people who were about to leave: "Who came here last night?"

She had to confirm which ones were safe first.

Jin Tong's deep gaze fell on her face, as if trying to discern something.

However, he did not intend to answer her question.

Su Mo looked at him coldly: "You'd better not touch my people. I'm the kind of person who always holds a grudge."

A cold glint flashed in Jin Tong's eyes. "Are you threatening me?"

"It's a threat, and a warning. But sir, you'd better take my words to heart!"
