Ah Yun shook her head in panic. "Impossible! What she said is true, my body is already starting to react! I need the antidote, I have to get the antidote as soon as possible!"
The masked Beastman glanced at her red, swollen arm and frowned.
’That Female, Su Mo, is really cunning. She actually did something else to Ah Yun.’
He knitted his brows and said, "This looks like an allergic reaction. Go find a Witch Doctor in the tribe, and you’ll know for sure! I’m warning you, if you dare try to contact anyone from the North Wing Black Market again, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
He brandished the sharp blade in his hand, the threat in his eyes obvious.
Ah Yun shuddered in fear. She stammered, "I-I understand..."
The man tossed another packet of medicine at her. "Find a way to make those two in the prison eat this!"
Ah Yun frowned at the packet on the ground. "I have no opportunity to do it. The Lord Major General has people watching the prison from the outside now. If I go in, I’ll be walking to my death!"
The man bent down and seized her by the chin. "If you don’t drug them now, I’ll make you die too! Do something to please me, and I might let you live a little longer! Understand?!"
Staring into those murderous eyes, Ah Yun’s body trembled like a leaf.
She nodded in terror.
The man grunted, then turned and signaled for his subordinate to leave.
In a few moments, the two of them had vanished without a trace.
Once they were a safe distance away, the attendant asked, "Sect Leader, why not just kill that Ah Yun? Do you really think she can successfully drug Mo Xiao and Fei Yan?"
"Who cares if she succeeds? I just want that Su Mo to know that I am her opponent."
The attendant frowned. "I think it would be better if you just killed that Female named Su Mo with a single blow to eliminate any future trouble. That way, dealing with her Beast Husbands would be much easier too."
The man raised a slight eyebrow and said coldly, "Don’t you think things are getting more and more interesting? Her sleeping drug worked on me, and she can also cure the poison of the Beast Binding Pill. I’m starting to think that playing with her is more fun than playing with her fiancés."
’Revealing myself to her and letting her find me on her own are two completely different things.’
As Ah Yun was returning from the small woods, she was spotted by Yue Ying and Cang Lan. However, the two of them followed Su Mo’s instructions and didn’t alert her to their presence.
Ah Yun returned to her residence and shut the door.
She rummaged through her home for allergy medicine, crushed it, and applied it to her skin, but not only did it have no effect, it actually made things worse.
’That masked Beastman was lying to me! He just wanted to use me to poison the others, and then wait for me to die from my own poison!’
’That way, without lifting a finger, he could get rid of a big problem—me—and pin everything on me.’
’It would all seem so perfect!’
The thought made Ah Yun even more terrified.
’I really don’t want to die!’
’No, I have to contact the people from the North Wing Black Market as soon as possible and find the antidote!’
She would rather take a risk than just wait to die!
Yue Ying had Cang Lan stay behind to continue monitoring Ah Yun’s every move.
Then he went back to find Su Mo himself.
Su Mo hadn’t gotten up yet. He stood at the door and called out twice, but there was no response from inside the room.
Yue Ying’s heart sank, and he pushed the door open to enter.
The next second, he swayed and nearly fell.
Fortunately, his reflexes were quick, and he covered his mouth and nose in time to avoid inhaling too much of the sleeping drug. freeweɓnovel.cøm
Su Mo, lying drowsily in bed, heard the commotion and groggily opened her eyes.
She then saw Yue Ying swaying, stumbling unsteadily toward her.
"wife..."
Then Yue Ying swayed and fell with a THUD beside her bed.
Su Mo shot up and reached out to feel for his pulse.
’He was drugged?’
’This scent... Isn’t this the same sleeping drug formula I used on Fei Yan when we ran into trouble in the woods?’
’Who on earth spread the same drug in my room while I was sleeping?!’
Su Mo didn’t have time to think. She pulled the antidote from her System Space and gave it to Yue Ying.
After regaining his senses, Yue Ying looked at her with concern. "wife, are you all right?"
Su Mo shook her head gently and asked, "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"
Yue Ying slowly shook his head, puzzled. "Does such a strong sleeping drug have no effect on you, wife?"
Su Mo frowned and explained, "This drug is my formula. It’s the same one I gave Fei Yan when we ran into trouble in the woods. I can’t believe the other party managed to replicate it."
Hearing this, Yue Ying’s brows furrowed slightly. "He actually found his way here?!"
Su Mo knitted her brows and said nothing.
’Is it the heroine’s people? Are they declaring war on a cannon fodder character like me now? To replicate my formula so quickly... this opponent is going to be tough.’
’It’s over, it’s over. Am I really going to be tied to these villains for good? Am I going to be forced to level up and fight monsters with them? Does this mean... I can’t call off the marriage for now?’
Hearing Su Mo’s inner thoughts, Yue Ying was inwardly delighted. "Don’t worry, wife. Yue Ying will definitely protect you."
Su Mo gave him a helpless glance and walked out, feeling dejected.
She was in no mood to make dinner, so she just ate some of the supper Long Yan had prepared. Afterward, she went for a stroll with the fox and the leopard.
It was a good opportunity for Yue Ying to tell her what had happened that afternoon.
Su Mo frowned in thought.
’A minor character like Ah Yun is nothing to be afraid of. The difficult one is the person behind her.’
’The plot now is completely different from the book. The heroine should be busy recruiting troops and gathering powerful Beast Husbands. She shouldn’t have the energy to pay attention to a cannon fodder character like me and these few villains.’
’So, another faction has appeared?! OMG! This bunch of lunatics isn’t following the plot! He should be going after the heroine, why the hell is he staring down a cannon fodder character like me?’
At her side, Yue Ying and Cang Lan exchanged a glance, then calmly maintained their composure.
’Whatever. I’ll just take it one step at a time... Staying alive is the most important thing right now!’
After her walk to aid digestion, Su Mo went back and took a bath.
When she returned to her room, she saw a fluffy thing lying on her bed.
Nine crimson fox tails were spread casually across the bed. Every strand of fur was distinct. Its fox eyes were narrowed, a bewitching light flowing within them.
Su Mo frowned. ’Damn fox, what is he up to now?’
She walked over, intending to chase him off her bed.
Who knew that the fox on the bed would suddenly leap up and jump accurately into her arms.
His fox tails suddenly tightened, wrapping around her slender waist, and his fluffy head even took the opportunity to nuzzle against her chest...
’Shameless, stinking fox...’
Before Su Mo could get angry, the fox in her arms seemed to inadvertently brush his wet nose against her collarbone, her neck...
Her heart suddenly trembled, and she tried to push the fox away.
"D-don’t mess around! G-go back to your own room~"
She tried to grab his ears, but the next second, the fox in her arms gave a push, and she was thrown onto the bed.
The fox tails around her waist suddenly loosened as he abruptly transformed into his human form. His long arms trapped her securely, and his gentle eyes were filled with an undeniable passion.
She heard him whisper softly in her ear, "wife, you already promised to let me sleep with you tonight. Don’t even think about backing out now~ Be good~ Don’t you like abs? I’ll even let you touch them, how about that?"
Su Mo’s heart pounded like thunder. She looked frantically at the person beside her and shook her head instinctively.
Yue Ying raised an eyebrow and thought, ’wife really is all bark and no bite. So timid. What am I going to do with her in the future?’
He reached out, grabbed her hand, and guided it inside his lapels.
"Don’t be afraid~ Want to try?"
Su Mo’s almond eyes went wide as she struggled fiercely. "Y-you’re not in heat, are you?"
Yue Ying’s narrow eyes squinted, a sly glint flashing through them.
He let out a soft "Mm-hmm," then leaned down and gave her cheek a loud SMACK of a kiss.
’Actually, it’s not time yet, but he wouldn’t mind if that thing came a little early...’
