Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 380 - 379: Alienation

When she drowsily fell asleep, feeling uneasy, listening to Wen Nanxi’s familiar tone, Su Muyao subconsciously felt at ease and gradually drifted off into slumber.

Wen Nanxi, however, felt no sleepiness. He held Su Muyao in his arms, lowered his head to look at her, his eyes filled with a deep and complex expression.

If Su Muyao were awake, she would have found such a gaze strange.

Because usually, when Wen Nanxi looked at her, he always had a gentle and indulgent expression.

He softly murmured the words "Ayao."

Both familiar and strange.

While holding her, his fingers gradually fell to the area over her heart.

He could even feel her vibrant life force and strong heartbeat.

Without the heartbeat, she’d be dead, wouldn’t she?

After Su Muyao fell asleep, she gradually felt cold and tried to break free from Wen Nanxi’s embrace with a frowned forehead.

Wen Nanxi held her, gently patting her back and softly murmured, "Be good, tell me, what’s wrong?"

Wen Nanxi used a power to make Su Muyao fall into a deep sleep, unable to awaken.

Su Muyao felt like she was trapped in a nightmare, feeling cold but unable to wake up, unable to break free from the coldness.

"Cold."

Wen Nanxi sighed softly, catalyzing the power within his body to emit a warm temperature, making Su Muyao no longer feel cold.

...

The next day when Su Muyao woke up, Wen Nanxi was already not in bed.

After Su Muyao got up, Wen Nanxi had already prepared things for washing up.

He personally took care of her.

Su Muyao said, "Nanxi, you are injured, no need to take care of me like this, I can do it myself."

"Taking care of the wife is the duty of a Beast Husband."

As her Beast Husband, it’s his role to do these things.

Su Muyao replied, "But you still have injuries on your body."

Wen Nanxi said softly, "These injuries are not serious, and they have improved a lot."

"Is there any wild animal meat you want to eat? After breakfast, I’ll go hunt some for you."

"Although the environment here isn’t great, there’s no shortage of wild animal meat."

"There are also some spirit fruits good for the body."

Su Muyao’s expression changed, "You still have injuries, don’t go hunting wild animals, what if you get injured again?"

"I have plenty of ingredients here, enough for us to eat."

"There’s also a lot of wild animal meat, no need to go hunting."

After washing up, Su Muyao gently touched Wen Nanxi’s waist where the injury was the heaviest.

Wen Nanxi’s body slightly stiffened, his picturesque eyes showing a hint of dark color, "Is the wife so worried about me?"

"Of course, you just need to focus on recovering; once you’re well, we can head out."

So, for the next period, Su Muyao devoted herself to caring for Wen Nanxi, making delicious food and decocting medicine for him.

Sometimes Su Muyao would also talk to him a lot.

She found that after this meeting, Wen Nanxi spoke less.

Only when she spoke, Wen Nanxi would respond.

"Nanxi, didn’t you encounter any fellow Snake Beastmen on the Cang Beast Continent?"

Wen Nanxi explained, "Snake Beastmen are as unwelcomed as Insect Clan Beastmen. It’s just that ten thousand years ago, the Great Power of the Witch Clan sealed most of the Insect Clan Beastmen in the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, and Snake Beastmen were hunted down by beastmen of other clans, so now there are very few Snake Beastmen left, much less any Ancient Celestial Snake Beastmen."

"Therefore, other clans’ beastmen are naturally hostile to Snake Beastmen; after so much time, only a few Snake Beastmen remain."

Su Muyao pondered, "I wonder if there’s any secret technique from the Snake Clan that can help your wound from the magic artifact heal faster."

Even using talismans doesn’t seem to work.

Wen Nanxi’s injury is peculiar and heals quite slowly.

Wen Nanxi said, "The Snake Clan does have secret techniques, but I know few of them."

"It’s just that my injuries have involved you."

Su Muyao covered Wen Nanxi’s lips with her hand, "Don’t say that."

"Between you and me, there’s no need to be so distant."

"Nanxi, is it because we haven’t seen each other for several months, so you feel estranged from me?"

In these days, although Wen Nanxi’s body needs recovery, his activities are not affected.

They had no intimacy; not even a kiss.

She didn’t particularly need these.

Her mind was entirely focused on Wen Nanxi’s injuries, and she hadn’t thought about anything else.

But she always felt something was not quite right, felt strange.

She didn’t think much before, but now thinking carefully, she always felt they had become more distant.

"How could I, wife, don’t overthink."

"I’m just not yet accustomed to life now on the Cang Beast Continent."

"Feeling my current strength is not enough to protect you, I have a lot on my mind."

"Wife, if you feel I’ve neglected you, how about this?"

As he spoke, Wen Nanxi gently caressed Su Muyao’s cheek.

No doubt, his wife was beautiful, with skin of jade and bones, an appearance that could topple cities, especially her lively and expressive eyes, stunningly beautiful.

He tenderly smoothed her hair, gently touched her cheek, and then slowly lowered his head, his lips falling on her eyes, then gradually lowering onto her lips.

He realized he was wrong; as her Beast Husband, he should serve his wife in every way, making her satisfied.

When his aura entangled her, his fingers rested on the skin of her waist.

His breath was too cold, his fingers cold, making Su Muyao shiver slightly.

A feeling of discomfort.

She reached out to push Wen Nanxi away, feeling a bit embarrassed, "What are you thinking? That’s not what I meant."

Wen Nanxi held her to prevent her from breaking free, playing with her hair with his other hand.

Just kissed by him, she still had a touch of blush on her jade cheeks, her bright eyes like intoxication, shy yet speaking, easily intoxicating others, moving their hearts.

"Then what does the wife want?"

He believed he had done well, flawlessly.

Su Muyao couldn’t describe the strange feeling in her heart but she couldn’t possibly suspect Wen Nanxi; she figured it must be the change in environment causing this.

Because she could feel it, his aura was indeed Wen Nanxi’s, there was no mistake; she said, "Just focus on recovering first."

Wen Nanxi could sense her disappointed expression at this moment, spoke, "It’s my fault, made you unhappy."

That said, he lowered his head and continued to kiss her cheek.

As he bent down, a dark color flashed across his picturesque eyes.

It seemed he had aroused her suspicion.

This was not good.

Didn’t she say it felt distant?

Then getting intimate would stop it from feeling distant.

After all, as her Beast Husband, loving her as he did, he’d also want to be close to her.

Even when injured, there should be no excuse.

Soon, the pheromones Wen Nanxi emitted caused a slight daze on Su Muyao’s face.

She placed her hand against Wen Nanxi’s chest, earnestly saying, "Nanxi, don’t."

Wen Nanxi sighed, tidying her disheveled hair and clothes, indulgent yet helplessly, "Alright, everything as you wish."

"Get some rest first."

Su Muyao nodded slightly, lying on the bed and fell asleep.

It was just in the middle of the night when she seemed to hear some sound outside, living on the Cang Beast Continent, her sense of alertness was strong, and she woke up immediately.

Wen Nanxi stopped her, "Don’t move, I’ll go check."

Before Su Muyao could react, Wen Nanxi had already gone outside, and soon the sound of fighting came from outside.

Su Muyao’s expression tensed, she hurried out.

But when she went out, Wen Nanxi had already gone to chase down the assassins.

At that moment, two other masters hidden in the dark came to attack Su Muyao.

Su Muyao exchanged several blows with them, not clinging to the fight; she needed to look for Wen Nanxi.

So she followed the aura and reached the mountain forest.

The deeper she went, the more Su Muyao felt something was off with the atmosphere in the forest.

The two masters who were chasing her kept pursuing her.

Both of them were Level 15, battling them while being a level lower wasn’t easy for Su Muyao.

Even employing talismans and other methods, she couldn’t kill them instantly. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Unless she forcefully upgraded her strength again.

But now, not knowing Wen Nanxi’s condition, she dared not use such a method rashly.
