Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 258: Awakening

Su Muyao’s fingers moved, and the soft sword at her waist instantly darted out like a silver snake. Her form was even faster, landing before the Empress like a bolt of lightning. The soft sword, wrapped in sword qi, swung out, blocking the assassin’s killing strike, thus protecting the Empress.

The hidden guards beside the Empress tangled with two of the Level 9 experts, and Su Muyao needed to immediately deal with these two Level 9 experts.

In the instant Su Muyao shielded the Empress, the soft sword swept horizontally, forcing them to retreat.

Immediately after, she wielded the soft sword with swift precision, aiming directly for the leading assassin’s throat. Simultaneously, she pulled out her hairpin to stab another Level 9 assassin.

One of the Level 9 assassins hastily blocked with a horizontal blade, but Su Muyao’s move was uncanny. The sword shifted directions, coiling around his wrist along the back of his blade, while her hair flicked and a hidden weapon launched, directly striking at his brow.

The Level 9 assassin was utterly shocked, hurried to dodge, but was thwarted by Su Muyao’s superior speed. With his head turned to evade, Su Muyao unleashed the pressure of her Level 9 bloodline, immobilizing him, and the soft sword swept across, killing him instantly.

The surrounding black-clad assassins, aiming to kill the Empress, were shocked at this sight.

"Level 9 superpower."

"How is it possible?"

"You’re just a female."

On the Mortal Beast Continent, females possessing superpowers were exceedingly rare. Even those with powers were often older, acquiring them through fortune.

How could this young female possess such abilities?

Moreover, she was clearly Level 9 superpower, yet still so formidable, even killing one of them.

Su Muyao coldly ignored them, simultaneously deploying her soft sword and hidden weapon to continue slaying the other assassins.

Shen Ci’an and his group also rushed to assist immediately.

No matter the number of assassins, before a Level 9 superpower user like him, they were hardly a match, as a Level 10 superpower simply crushed them. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Level 10?"

"How could there be a Level 10?"

The Level 9 assassins each displayed expressions of shock.

The palace banquet and surrounding areas saw numerous assassins, and Wen Nanxi and his group also joined the battle, showcasing their full superpower levels.

This astonished everyone present.

Especially Su Muyao’s superpower prowess, which was the most astonishing.

Yun Qinglan’s focus was entirely on Su Muyao; he paid no heed to the chaos around him, knowing only that Su Muyao must be kept safe.

Thus, he too leaped over, promptly assisting Su Muyao in killing the nearby assassins.

Many assassins still surged forth from within the palace banquet, causing panic, and amidst the confusion, everyone hurriedly engaged in self-defense. Those with superpowers were all embroiled in combat with the assassins.

Dong Baishang screamed repeatedly in fear, witnessing an assassin’s sword aimed at her, she swiftly pulled Duan Tingxuan, who was battling assassins and protecting her, to block the strike.

"Splash..."

Duan Tingxuan wasn’t prepared for Dong Baishang’s move, as Beast Husband, even if he didn’t favor Dong Baishang now, he still had a duty to protect her.

Unexpectedly, in a critical moment, Dong Baishang actually betrayed him.

A sword pierced directly into his front, injuring an already hurt arm, exposing bone, with blood staining his clothes.

Dong Baishang, oblivious to Duan Tingxuan’s injuries, cared only for her safety.

She screamed repeatedly, "Ah, save me, save me..."

She constantly hid behind Duan Tingxuan, tugging at his sleeve and arm.

In consequence, Duan Tingxuan, despite possessing a Level 6 superpower, received multiple wounds.

The Duan Family Master and others were also resisting the assassins, unable to attend to Duan Tingxuan immediately.

Yet they worried about Duan Tingxuan, so witnessing this scene, they were nearly furious.

"Fool."

"She’s going to get Tingxuan killed."

This Dong Baishang is simply courting death.

The Duan Family Master resolved in his heart; no matter what, Duan Tingxuan must not remain in the Dong Family.

Otherwise, Duan Tingxuan could very well die.

Compared to life and death, reputation seemed less important.

Duan Tingxuan was so frustrated, he coughed up blood twice, nearly fainting.

Liu Mengyan observed her disrupted plan, her gaze growing increasingly gloomy. She had earlier informed the assassins to ensure Dong Baishang, who disrupted her plans, was killed.

That damned wench.

Nevertheless, she portrayed herself as someone weak, scared and panicked, stealing glances in Yan Zhaoye’s direction.

On this fateful night, Jiang Mochuan, already suspicious, had been observing Liu Mengyan, noticing she was completely unlike her usual self. Especially when she inadvertently revealed a vicious demeanor, making Jiang Mochuan’s heart turn cold.

Yet no matter how he felt, she was his wife now, and he had to protect her.

But as Jiang Mochuan guarded Liu Mengyan, he observed her looking at Yan Zhaoye.

He felt a throbbing pain at his temples, recalling Liu Mengyan previously reassuring him that he was the only one in her heart, the only one she loved. "Does wife favor Yan Zhaoye now?"

"Wife previously said her heart was only for me."

Jiang Mochuan felt as if his wholeheartedly given heart was being trampled underfoot by Liu Mengyan.

Liu Mengyan turned to Jiang Mochuan with a smile, "But you can’t protect me alone, can you?"

Saying this, Liu Mengyan deliberately left an opening, allowing the assassin to cut her arm.

"Ah."

Liu Mengyan screamed in pain, falling to the ground. Witnessing this, Yan Zhaoye rushed over, maneuvering to shield Liu Mengyan.

"Don’t worry, I’ll protect you."

Liu Mengyan appeared touched, saying, "You truly are good to me."

Yan Zhaoye, seeing Liu Mengyan’s pitiful demeanor, felt even more empathy, fiercely fighting the assassins.

Jiang Mochuan watched this, utterly infuriated.

At that moment, several assassins relentlessly attacked Jiang Mochuan.

"Kill him."

This was the explicit order they received.

Strangely, Jiang Mochuan found himself unable to muster any superpower energy, sustaining many injuries.

He felt he might die here.

Why, how could this be?

Yet as he was about to collapse, Liu Mengyan didn’t cast a single glance his way; she was focused on Yan Zhaoye.

At this moment, Jiang Mochuan suddenly felt utterly ridiculous.

Almost like he was deceiving himself.

"Heh..."

He always assumed Liu Mengyan was pure and kind-hearted, treating him genuinely, even doing many things for him.

He knew Duan Tingxuan’s situation before marrying, certainly believing Liu Mengyan was unlike Dong Baishang.

Thus he married Liu Mengyan unwaveringly.

How long has it been? Yet he was deeply embarrassed.

Feeling resentful.

Those sharp pains made him exceedingly clear-headed, leading him to suspect Liu Mengyan suddenly.

He realized his Level 7 superpower wasn’t performing at half capacity, perhaps due to Liu Mengyan.

As Jiang Mochuan was about to fall, the Empress’s Xuanjia Guards resolved the external threats, quickly joining the banquet to kill the assassins.

This is why Jiang Mochuan didn’t die — albeit severely injured.

But since no Jiang Family members were present at the banquet, no one tended to Jiang Mochuan.

The Duan Family came first to Duan Tingxuan, offering warmth and care.

Soon, the situation was under control; most of the assassins surrounding the Empress were eliminated, leaving two alive for interrogation.

The Empress gazed at Su Muyao, still shielding her, with trembling fingers and reddened eyes.

This child had fully recovered, maturing into such excellence; she felt truly proud.

With the assassins vanquished, Su Muyao turned immediately to the Empress, "Your Majesty, I know a little medicine, may I check your health first?"

The Empress had protected her since childhood; she wouldn’t want anything to happen to the Empress’s health.

Seizing this chance to conduct an examination.

The Empress nodded, "Okay, I’ve heard your medical skills are excellent. Many lives of border generals were saved by you. Today you’ll examine me."

The banquet saw numerous injuries; the Empress dispatched for Imperial Physicians to care for everyone.
