Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 243: Survival of the Fittest

Looking at Su Muyao’s stunned expression, Old Madam Xiao found her utterly adorable.

Mentioning that benefactor, Old Madam Xiao’s demeanor softened significantly, she spoke with a reminiscent tone: "Yes, your grandfather. I didn’t know who he was."

"I barely escaped from the Xiao Family at that time. I was seriously injured, being hunted by a group of experts, nearly besieged to death. In the crucial moment, your grandfather intervened. He just stood on a tree, and with a light gesture, his aura suppressed those experts, rendering them immobile."

"Later, when I met your father, I saw the Jade Pendant hanging from his waist. It once belonged to your grandfather. Your father resembles your grandfather so closely that I couldn’t be mistaken."

"Moreover, your father’s reputation for ability is known to all. His daughter would certainly not fall short."

"Having witnessed the magnificence of your grandfather, I can tell that his granddaughter won’t be lacking either."

"And besides, with this debt of gratitude in place, I have no reason to oppose this marriage."

Old Madam Xiao did not shy away from anyone when she spoke these words.

Wen Nanxi and the others were listening nearby, each of them was stirred internally.

Knowing the wife master is beautiful and strong, but never imagined she had such a background.

To have Old Madam Xiao express such words, they couldn’t help but feel waves of emotion, being the beast husband to such a wife master is indeed their honor.

Luckily, they were noticed by the wife master back then; otherwise, they might not have the privilege to stand beside her.

She grows too rapidly, becoming more and more dazzling.

Su Muyao snapped out of her shock, her eyes brightened as she said, "Grandma Xiao, does this mean my grandfather is from the Unknown Zone, as you referred to the Cang Beast Continent?"

Old Madam Xiao shook her head, saying, "I don’t know where he came from either. When I was in the Xiao Family’s main house, I never heard of such a beastman, nor had I seen one like that. Even the Xiao Family experts who were hunting me didn’t recognize him."

"He seemed to come and go without a trace, it made me think of a beastman."

Su Muyao asked, "Who?"

Could it be that grandfather is still alive?

Old Madam Xiao said, "Our Dongning Beast Kingdom’s State Preceptor."

She then shook her head, "But that’s impossible, he is incredibly strong, he surely wouldn’t be a State Preceptor in a Beast Country of the Mortal Beast Continent."

"Yet, your father grew up in the Su Family, so even I am perplexed."

"Though there are powerful barrier screens established since ancient times between the Mortal Beast Continent and the Cang Beast Continent, with your grandfather’s ability, he should be able to traverse it freely."

"Some established forces can still use secret techniques to send beastmen to the Mortal Beast Continent, though it comes at a cost."

"I entered the Xiao Family’s main house back then through the Family Head Token."

Saying this, Old Madam Xiao took out the Xiao Family’s Family Head Token, which once held teleportation powers. Once one reaches a certain strength, it can be activated to enter the main family on the other side.

At this moment, Su Muyao was even more curious about her grandfather and father.

"Grandma Xiao, since he is my grandfather, shouldn’t he be Mr. Su from my Su Family, you must have seen him."

Old Madam Xiao explained, "Mr. Su of the Su Family has never appeared before anyone. It’s said he is weak and sick, even nobody knows who Old Madam Su is. Your father was brought back by him, you were suddenly taken back by your father, so regarding your grandmother and your mother, nobody knows who they are."

Su Muyao didn’t expect, even her grandmother had no name, no history.

"Grandma Xiao, do you know anything about my father’s whereabouts now?"

Old Madam Xiao concentrated and said, "I suspect your father might have gone to the Unknown Zone."

"Previously, when he came to the Xiao Family to propose for you, he subtly mentioned a few words. He surely went to the Unknown Zone to look for your mother. Now many people claim your father has died, but he surely has not."

Old Madam Xiao was certain about this.

Su Muyao also believed her father was still alive, "Grandma Xiao, is the Unknown Zone very dangerous?"

She was indeed eager to go to the Unknown Zone, but if she were to go, Wen Nanxi and the others would surely follow along.

Therefore, she needs to understand clearly and not venture rashly.

"Yes, it’s not as peaceful as the Mortal Beast Continent. The powers there are intricate and complicated, there are sect forces and family forces alike, and the weak are meat to the strong."

"In order to enhance their strength, their methods can be extremely cruel, the battles within the Xiao Family’s main house are very fierce. The competitions set to select top experts within the family can even allow killing opponents on the spot, the arenas can be life-and-death duels."

Therefore, Old Madam Xiao was quite uncomfortable with such an environment, and greatly disliked it.

However, the Cang Beast Continent is several times larger than the Mortal Beast Continent.

There are many things even she was unclear about.

Because most of the time she stayed in the Xiao Family’s main house, or was sent out by the main house to perform tasks.

...

Su Muyao and Xiao Jihan asked many questions, the more they learned, the graver their expressions became.

Afterwards, Wen Nanxi and the others were arranged by Old Madam Xiao to rest, while Old Madam Xiao kept Xiao Jihan and Su Muyao back alone.

Old Madam Xiao looked at them and said, "I previously used secret techniques to seal Jihan’s Ice Spirit Root. Now, as I remove the secret technique seal, his ice spirit root physique will become apparent, allowing cultivation to enhance power rapidly."

"In the past, I only hoped he would grow up safely, but considering the ways of the main family, I don’t know when they might send experts again, so we must be prepared in advance."

"Mu Yao, you are his wife master, so his matters, I won’t hide from you."

"Once the ice spirit root is unsealed, if discovered by others, it might bring danger."

Su Muyao replied without hesitation, "Grandma Xiao, I will protect Jihan. He is my beast husband, I won’t let anyone harm him."

Old Madam Xiao’s gaze warmed, nodding with satisfaction.

"Your father was fiercely protective, my earlier judgment couldn’t go wrong."

"Of course, Jihan, you also need to cultivate well, not for revenge, but to defend yourself and protect your wife master by becoming powerful."

"This world is far more complex and profound than we imagine, only by being strong enough can we ensure a good life."

Xiao Jihan nodded firmly, "Grandma, I understand."

Xiao Jihan sat there, his hands clenched tightly, he must become strong quickly.

Old Madam Xiao directly set a barrier using superpower, and arranged several magic artifacts around.

"This is to prevent any phenomena from occurring that might attract attention."

Sure enough, when Old Madam Xiao unsealed Xiao Jihan’s Ice Spirit Root, a snow-like white light burst forth, shot skyward, and even extended outward.

The entire room was enveloped in this white light. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Su Muyao was surprised; is this the innate power of the Ice Spirit Root?

At this moment, Xiao Jihan’s hair turned snow-colored; when he transformed into his true form, he became an ice wolf, his black fur turned entirely snow white.

Su Muyao was dumbfounded, can it really change color?

It can change color?
