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

Chapter 56 056 The Scumbag Who Refuses to Acknowledge Her After She's Been Eaten Up
At this moment, in a thatched hut on the edge of the dragon tribe.

The man in black removed the black mask from his face, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. His sinister gaze, as if coated with poison, stared at the two drawn bows and arrows on the table.

"I didn't expect her poison to have been upgraded again?"

If he hadn't withdrawn in time, the poison would probably have spread to his heart.

Fortunately, he himself had some knowledge of poisons, otherwise he would have really lost half his life at her hands this time.

The man gripped the sharp sword on the table and murmured, "Su Mo, I hope you'll have such good luck next time!"

While tending to his wounds, one of his men said, "I think we should find an opportunity to get rid of that female as soon as possible! Her methods of researching poisons are really impressive; keeping her around will only cause endless trouble!"

The man sneered, "What's the rush? The cat-and-mouse game has only just begun! This world is so boring; it's only interesting if I have some interesting people to keep me company."

"But Sect Master..."

The man raised his hand to interrupt unhappily: "I have my own decision."

She's just a little female, what can she possibly do? The poison he left on those people will probably keep Su Mo worried for a while.

This game can only be considered a draw at best.

At this moment, Su Mo was outside the door.

Mo Xiao, Yue Ying, and Cang Lan had been up for a while and had prepared breakfast, just waiting for Su Mo and Fei Yan to get up.

But no matter how long they waited, the person inside the house still didn't get up.

Everyone knew that Su Mo had a habit of sleeping in late, but today the time seemed to pass unusually slowly.

The moonlight peeked quietly through the crack in the window, peering into the room.

Su Mo nestled in Fei Yan's arms like a cat, one hand slipping inside his clothes in an extremely ambiguous pose.

He couldn't help but feel a surge of jealousy, and his hand, which was waving the fan, unconsciously moved much faster.

Mo Xiao, standing not far away, glanced at him sideways, his eyes seeming to say: You asked for trouble, you deserve it.

Yueying walked over, fanning herself, and glared at him: "I'm just a jealous person, what's it to you!"

Mo Xiao snorted, "Then I might as well just soak in a vat of vinegar all day long."

Yueying glared at him again, annoyed: "Don't pretend to be calm. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You may appear calm on the surface, but your heart is probably in turmoil."

Mo Xiao's hands, hanging by his sides, clenched slightly and then slowly relaxed. It wasn't that he was pretending to be calm; he was just beginning to convince himself that such days would be the norm from now on.

If you can't control your emotions, you'll only annoy your wife.

He could allow Su Mo to like other people, as long as she had a place for him in her heart.

Now, what he fears most is that she doesn't have a place for him in her heart at all, after all, before...

He dared not think about it anymore; the more he thought about it, the more panicked he became.

Moonshadow nudged his shoulder and frowned, saying, "When can we go back to the North Wing? I don't want to stay in this wretched place of the Dragon Clan for even a second longer. So many things have happened since we arrived. The North Wing is much safer."

Mo Xiao said in a deep voice, "Not necessarily. If they are coming for us, they will come looking for us no matter where we are."

"Last night was truly terrifying. If it weren't for Lan Ling's two timely arrows, my wife..."

Yueying grew increasingly frightened as she spoke, and said seriously, "From now on, we will take turns taking care of her safety."

"Ah."

Mo Xiao had been pondering this matter all night. Although he didn't know why the other party was targeting Su Mo, the current situation did not allow them to relax even a little.

Although the wife is skilled in poisons, her martial arts skills are zero. Moreover, the opponent is of a higher level, so she will have to be more careful in the future.

Yueying frowned and said, "I wonder what that novel my wife mentioned is like. I really want to read it. If we read it beforehand, wouldn't we know what happens later in the story?"

Mo Xiao shook his head thoughtfully: "According to what the wife thinks, the plot has already begun to change. Even if we know the original story, it will be in vain."

Mo Xiao just couldn't understand when the plot started to change. Could it have started from that day in the grove when he first met his wife and overheard her thoughts?
Or perhaps even earlier?
inside the house.

Fei Yan had already woken up and, after a night's rest, was feeling much better.

Every sound from outside reached his ears.

He gazed down at the sleeping figure nestled against his chest, his eyes filled with tenderness.

The wife looked so adorable when she was asleep, like a cat that had put away its claws. Her long, thick eyelashes cast dappled shadows and trembled gently with her breath. She looked so gentle and obedient.

Her fair face was flushed with an alluring honey pink, and a few strands of hair playfully clung to her cheeks.

He couldn't help but reach out and brush away the strands of hair, his fingertips gently brushing against her cheek. Su Mo almost instinctively snuggled closer to him.

She mumbled incoherently, "Don't move...it itches..." Fei Yan suddenly froze, her heart beating faster for no apparent reason.

He touched his chest, where the dark lines of their bond had appeared the night before, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

From that moment on, he could only belong to her.

She quietly tightened her arms around the person beside her, holding her even closer. She truly hoped she would wake up later, and that it would get dark sooner tonight.

Su Mo slept very soundly, and when she woke up groggily, it was almost lunchtime.

She unconsciously yawned, and originally wanted to stretch, but her range of motion was limited.

My arm feels like it's trapped.

Su Mo frowned, opened her eyes, and what she saw was an alluring...abdominal muscles.

What happened?!

Su Mo was wide awake and suddenly sat up with her eyes wide open.

Wait, how did I end up on the bed?

Almost simultaneously, Fei Yan switched to a look as if she had just woken up.

He opened his sleepy eyes and asked languidly, "My lady, what's wrong? Did you not sleep well last night?"

"..." Su Mo blushed, opened her mouth, and shook her head with an awkward smile.

"Um, how did I end up on the bed?"

Fei Yan's eyes were smiling, and her tone was extremely sincere: "I don't know."

Su Mo didn't notice Fei Yan's reddened ear tips and stiffly forced a smile.

[Could he have come up here on his own? Sleepwalking?!]

In her mind, she summoned Xiao Jiu and asked him about what happened last night.

At the same time, Fei Yan frowned slightly: What is Xiao Jiu?
Could it be that the conversation I overheard the host had with this Xiao Jiu?!
Xiao Jiu sighed and said, "Host, do you really have no recollection of what you did? I think you were just using the pretense of taking care of someone to execute them on the spot!"

Su Mo mentally glared at him: "...Nonsense! What could a weak woman like me, who can't even kill a chicken, possibly do to him?!"

Xiao Jiu clicked her tongue twice and said vividly, "Your body is much more honest than your mouth."

"Open your eyes and look at the red marks on his chest. Tsk~ He's been gnawed all over here, there's not a single good spot left~ And he still has the nerve to lie and say he didn't do anything? If you want to be a scumbag, just say so. Why are you being so stubborn and refusing to admit it?"

Su Mo stared wide-eyed at Fei Yan's exposed chest.

Frowning, he asked Xiao Jiu, "Wasn't that where he got injured in the fight last night? I couldn't have been sleeping so soundly... How come I don't remember him at all?"

Xiao Jiu sighed and said, "If thinking like this can ease your guilt, I don't care~ Why don't you go and smell him, see if he has your saliva on him? Want to take a few more sniffs?!"

Su Mo: "!!!"

She thought the system must be insane...

"Shut up, you dog system!"

Xiao Jiu chuckled, "What's the rush? We've already nibbled on it, what's there to be afraid of?"

Su Mo simply couldn't hear anything anymore.

"By the way, host, because you successfully obtained a Beastman Bond Certificate last night, the System Management Bureau has rewarded you with double the space upgrade and double the laboratory upgrade! Three self-defense tools are also included~ Keep up the good work~"

"What the hell?! How did you get this?! I have no idea?!"

Orc bond certificate? Isn't that something that takes a lot of time and effort to obtain? Besides, not every orc is willing to be bound to their wife.

Although it's not very convenient to divorce a wife or husband in the beast world, such situations still exist, so beastmen generally don't easily form contracts with humans.

After all, once that kind of thing grows, it seems impossible for it to disappear.

Even if a beastman who has formed a bond with his wife is abandoned, he cannot choose another female.

Xiao Jiu patiently explained, "This is the first time I've encountered a situation like this where a bond can be formed without any special preparation. That's why I didn't report it to the System Management Bureau last time. This time is perfect; both bond certificates will be issued as a reward!"

"Last time? What last time?!"

"Last time Mo Xiao was injured, you were in the room..."

After listening to his explanation, Su Mo looked again at the faint red mark on Fei Yan's chest and was completely dumbfounded.
