After transmigrating into the body of a wicked female, her beast husband's affection level incr

Not long after Cheyu led them away, a sharp bird cry came from behind.

Xu Wan turned around and froze. "It's a ferocious beast..."

A flock of ferocious bird-like beasts, the leader of which was also a fourth-order beast.

Now that things have come to this, what is there that she doesn't understand?

She attracts ferocious beasts; their target has always been her.

Cheyu was only at the third level and was no match for them at all, not to mention that Yunshu was also here.

As the group of dark figures drew closer, Xu Wan gripped Yun Shu's hand tightly, but spoke to Che Yu instead.

"Father Cheyu, protect my mother."

Yun Shu held her hand tightly, refusing to let go. "Sweetie... what are you going to do?"

Xu Wan looked at her, and the corners of her mouth slowly turned up.

"Mother." Her voice was very soft, as if it would be blown away by the wind at any moment.

"I'm so happy to be your good boy."

She pushed Yun Shu's hand away and jumped off Che Yu's back.

"If I could, I'd want to be your little calf forever..."

The unspoken words vanished with her into the wind, while Yun Shu's voice chased after her from above, "My dear!"

As if guided by something, the group of ferocious beasts, following the lead fourth-tier beast, turned around and swooped down towards her.

Xu Wan sighed inwardly.

She can't take action now, otherwise Yun Shu and the others will find out that she is not the original owner of this body.

Since the ferocious beast went to such lengths to catch her, it probably won't let her die.

She closed her eyes, bracing herself to endure the pain of her shoulder blade being pierced once again.

A mournful scream echoed through the air as her fall was caught by an arm.

She opened her eyes and met Du Yu's teasing smile.

"Little female, we meet again."

His voice was cheerful, as if seeing her and rescuing her had put him in a good mood.

Xu Wan, however, did not feel particularly happy.

Having just escaped a group of ferocious beasts, she encountered a madman; she couldn't say which one she felt more at ease with.

Du Yu lifted her chin. "What's wrong? Wanwan doesn't seem too happy to see me?"

Seeing that she didn't speak, he pretended to loosen his grip on her waist, and the sudden feeling of weightlessness made her instinctively hug his neck tighter.

"Oh……"

Savoring the refreshing fragrance, Du Yu raised an eyebrow in a good mood.

"So Wanwan is afraid of dying too."

Xu Wan couldn't help but glare at him, "...Crazy."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Du Yu casually replied, and without turning his head, he waved his hand behind him. A wind blade swept past, silently splitting the nearest ferocious beasts in two.

Watching the dark figure falling like rain, she suddenly felt that he had been merciful by not harming her.

But... "Where is your bond mark?"

She instinctively raised her hand to touch his forehead, but he grabbed her wrist.

His tone suddenly became ambiguous, as if they were about to do something in the air.

"Little female, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

As he spoke, he unleashed several more wind blades, and the ferocious beasts were killed before they could even get close to him.

She took a deep breath. "I just wanted to see if you'd broken the bond with me, so I wouldn't waste my mental energy!"

"Dissolve the contract?"

The hand around her waist immediately loosened, and Xu Wan was so frightened that she clung to him with both hands and feet.

"Wataba!"

"I'm here."

Seeing that she had no one else to rely on but herself, Du Yu curled his lips and reached out to hold her arm.

"Little female, do you want to see my bond mark because you're afraid I'll break the bond with you, or do you want to break the bond with me?"

Although she really wanted to boldly tell him, "I'm going to break the contract with you. Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

But she glanced down at the ground and at the still-relentless ferocious beasts.

Then look at him, as if he'd tear her hand away and throw her down if she didn't get what she wanted.

She swallowed hard. At times like this, pride wasn't so important...

"I'm so scared! I didn't want to break the bond with you at all! Seeing your mark disappear terrified me!"

She opened her eyes wide and stared intently at Du Yu.

She was lying through her teeth, her eyes were sore from staring so hard, trying to silently express her last bit of stubbornness in this way.

Seeing her like this, Du Yu really thought she was trying to prove to him that she didn't want to break the contract, and the corners of his mouth curved up even more.

"Little female, you look so beautiful when you tell the truth."

He put his arm around her waist again, giving her a point of leverage.

Black wings unfurled behind him, countless wind blades swirled up, and the ferocious beast in front of him was reduced to fragments in the blink of an eye.

Du Yu glanced down at the fourth-tier ferocious beast on the ground...

The fourth-tier beast crystal is quite beautiful. He plans to dig it out and give it to the little female to play with.

He pulled her down to the ground, and as the wind blade cleaved through her skull and dug out the beast crystal, he froze for a moment.

The beast crystal in his hand wasn't the white color that a fourth-tier beast should have, but rather... the orange-yellow color of a half-king.

"A fourth-tier ferocious beast has yielded a half-king-level beast crystal."

Wataru's voice carried a hint of surprise, "This is the first time I've ever seen this."

He had been stuck at the Half-King level for a long time. Although a single beast crystal was not enough to upgrade him to King Beastman, it was enough to greatly increase his strength.

"Little female, although males are supposed to hand over the beast crystals they dig up to their female masters, I don't intend to do that."

He held the beast crystal in front of her and waved it.

"When we get back to Dark Night City, I'll make it up to you with something else, how about that?"

"Whatever."

Xu Wan turned her head away, her hands clenching nervously behind her back.

She was afraid that Du Yu might suddenly decide to dig out the beast crystals of other ferocious beasts as well.

She didn't want him to discover her secret of being able to increase the level of beast crystals.

Are you angry?

Du Yu put the beast crystal into the animal skin bag and reached out to lift her chin.

"Little female, I told you I'd give you something else, so don't be angry with me, understand?"

He took her hand and placed it on his forehead, where a light blue rabbit mark slowly came into her view.

"I didn't break the bond with you; I just used a little illusion magic."

He could choose not to explain, or he could force her to obey, but he didn't want to.

He wanted her to be proactive, willing, and have eyes only for him.

Seeing that her attention was back on him, his irritation subsided considerably.

His fingertips brushed against her lips, his eyes darkening slightly. "Little female, I want to kiss you..."

Before he could finish speaking, a ball of fire came crashing down from the side.

Du Yu waved his hand and took a few steps back while holding her.

The flames were forcibly cut apart by the wind blades, leaving only a few sparks on the ground.

"Fox Spirit!"

"Tsk, when did the fox clan get half-king beastmen?"

Hearing the little female's cheerful voice, Du Yu licked his teeth in dissatisfaction.

And she called him so affectionately; she's never called him that tone before!

"Let go of Wanwan!"

The fireball in Hu Jiu's palm surged, and Zhu You and Chen Shuang also arrived.

When Zhu You saw that she was being held tightly in Du Yu's arms, his face darkened.

"Watana, what are you planning to do now?"

"Du Yu? So you're the bastard who bullied Wanwan!"

Chen Shuang raised her hand and conjured a row of ice spikes, which shot towards Du Yu, but they were all scattered by the opponent's casual wave of his hand.

He glanced at Chen Shuang, "Only fourth rank, don't waste your energy."

He tightened his grip on the young female's waist, his tone playful.

"A snake, a fox, a wolf, a little female—so you have more than one beast mate after all..."

As the wind gathered in his hand, Du Yu smiled with murderous intent.

"Kill them all, and you'll only have me as your beastly husband..."
