Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 264: Waiting to Watch the Show

Upon hearing this, Su Muyao’s complexion changed.

When the palace feast started and Jiang Mochuan appeared, she knew something was wrong with his body. She had speculated on various possibilities, but hadn’t considered this situation.

She wasn’t concerned about Jiang Mochuan’s body; she was contemplating the conspiracy behind it.

She communicated with the system through thought: "Jiang Mochuan’s body has issues, but Liu Mengyan’s health is fine, and Shen Ci’an said Liu Mengyan looks good, having gathered superpower."

"If this spider silk can devour Jiang Mochuan’s innate blood power and superpower, it should indicate one thing: this spider silk comes from Liu Mengyan."

"She’s using this method to enhance her abilities."

Previously, Su Muyao believed Liu Mengyan genuinely cared for Jiang Mochuan. Now it seems there is not even a trace of sincerity—it’s all exploitation.

The system said: "Host, Liu Mengyan is very likely a Spider Beastman. Only Spider Beastmen can inject such devouring power spider silk when forming a Contract with males."

"Spider Beastmen are the lowest tier of beastmen. Normal beastmen don’t want to associate with such creatures. Jiang Mochuan left the host and favored this Spider Beastman; who knows how he will react when he finds out the truth."

The system always found Jiang Mochuan particularly hateful, always wanting to harm its host, but now it feels somewhat sorry for him.

However, pitiful people must have some traits inviting hate.

Su Muyao said: "The Evil Thought Soul occupies my body, and Jiang Mochuan forcibly broke the contract to be with Liu Mengyan; it’s understandable."

"Originally, it had nothing to do with me, but very clearly, there’s a conspiracy behind this, and Liu Mengyan aimed at me many times; I will get to the bottom of this."

"Jiang Mochuan cannot die temporarily; is there a way to keep him alive?"

If he died, some clues would be lost.

The system said: "There is no way, unless the Moon Clan steps in."

"Spider Beastmen, being such low-level evil beastmen, fear Moon Clan Beastmen the most, especially as the blood of Moon Clan Beastmen inherently suppresses their evil magic."

Su Muyao seemed to recall past events: "No wonder Liu Mengyan always deliberately avoided Yue Wuhen back then."

Yue Wuhen used to be one of Su Muyao’s beast husbands, also the Young Master of Moon Clan.

Although Liu Mengyan let Su Muyao check Jiang Mochuan’s physical condition, she feared Su Muyao would discover her secret.

She used a special Secret Technique from her clan, so even with Su Muyao’s medical expertise, nothing would be discovered.

Jiang Mochuan’s gaze was deep and dark; he kept looking at Su Muyao, observing her expressions, and couldn’t deny that she had changed from before.

But at this moment, Jiang Mochuan couldn’t think about other matters; he wanted to know what was wrong with his body.

He carefully watched Su Muyao’s expressions, noticing her surprise and seriousness, and his heart sank sharply.

Soon, Su Muyao withdrew her hand and said: "Sorry, my medical skills are limited; I can’t identify the specific problem within Young Master Jiang’s body."

"As for external injuries, the Imperial Physician has already helped Young Master Jiang bandage them; it seems unnecessary for me to intervene."

Jiang Mochuan’s pupils changed. No, she must have noticed something.

The subtle expressions when she was taking his pulse—he wouldn’t mistake them.

Liu Mengyan, however, sighed with relief, a smile barely discernible at the corner of her mouth as she began to act out again, "Miss Su, your medical skills are so great; are you refusing to treat Mochuan, or are you still resenting us? I understand, Miss Su is still unwilling to forgive us."

"It’s all my fault for displeasing Miss Su. As long as Miss Su is willing to save Mochuan, if you’re willing to forgive us, Miss Su can hit me and scold me."

Su Muyao turned and slapped Liu Mengyan hard on the face.

With a sharp "slap," Liu Mengyan was knocked to the ground.

Liu Mengyan was stunned by the blow, with one side of her face quickly swelling up.

Everyone present gasped, but at that moment, silence prevailed. Everyone had witnessed Su Muyao’s exceptional medical skills, and no one wanted to cross her.

Moreover, not to mention Su Muyao now wielded military power, possessing real authority.

Plus, Su Muyao had just saved everyone and helped them, so no one criticized her.

However, Yan Zhaoye jumped out and said: "Su Muyao, you actually slapped Miss Liu at the palace feast."

"You’re still as vicious as ever, bullying Miss Liu like this... Ugh..."

Before Yan Zhaoye could finish his sentence, the Yan Beastman had already clasped his mouth tightly, silencing him completely.

Su Muyao couldn’t care less about Yan Zhaoye; she coldly looked down at Liu Mengyan, "You begged me to act; if I didn’t, your words would be in vain."

"Liu Mengyan, since you want to know what’s wrong with Jiang Mochuan’s body, let me tell you: he’s afflicted by evil magic, unable to gather spiritual energy to enhance his superpower. Even if he cultivates, his superpower will only dissipate."

"This is not an illness; evil magic must be countered with methods that suppress evil magic."

"Does my explanation satisfy you?"

Liu Mengyan was originally holding her aching face but widened her eyes in shock upon hearing Su Muyao’s words.

How could she see this? No, their clan’s Secret Technique is so discreet; Su Muyao could not have detected it.

Tears instantly welled up in Liu Mengyan’s eyes, "Miss Su, I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you’re saying."

"I’m just worried about Jiang Mochuan."

Su Muyao’s lips curved into a strange arc; she didn’t expect Liu Mengyan to confess. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

But sowing the seed of doubt in Jiang Mochuan’s heart, letting him and Liu Mengyan turn on each other—that was enough entertainment for her.

Although Jiang Mochuan was ensnared by Liu Mengyan’s seduction, he indeed possessed strength and scheming.

As Su Muyao spoke, her gaze swept over Jiang Mochuan’s face, and she indeed saw the darkness and coldness within his eyes.

That was enough.

Su Muyao’s words sparked an uproar.

Mentioning evil magic always incites dread and disgust.

...

After the palace feast ended, Su Muyao and Wen Nanxi rode on a carriage back. Wen Nanxi tenderly held her in his arms, "Be good, lie down and rest for a while."

She must have been exhausted at the palace feast.

Su Muyao leaned against Wen Nanxi’s embrace, inhaling the gentle and pleasant scent of bamboo from him, feeling a sense of reassurance.

Shen Ci’an and the others looked at Su Muyao, feeling equally distressed.

This night was fraught with twists and turns, but fortunately, no major issues arose.

"I’ve discovered some things; let’s talk when we get home."

Back home, after Shen Ci’an set up a barrier around the house to block all prying and sound, Su Muyao finally said: "I suspect Liu Mengyan is a Spider Beastman; when I examined Jiang Mochuan’s body, I found spider silk throughout his body."

"Look, this is a strand of spider silk I extracted from Jiang Mochuan’s body."

She discreetly drew out a strand of spider silk, ensuring Liu Mengyan wouldn’t notice any problem.

This spider silk was clearly different from ordinary spider silk.

When Shen Ci’an saw the spider silk, his face suddenly changed, and his gaze darkened, "It’s the Devouring Silk spat by the Nine Nether Spider Beastman."

Mentioning Nine Nether Spider Beastman made Wen Nanxi and the others’ expressions change.

Their expressions became particularly solemn.

Su Muyao asked: "Nine Nether Spider Beastman? Is there something to it?"
