Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 550 - 547: Hierarchical Strictness

Although rationally, Su Muyao knew he was a Dark Beastman, naturally cold and unfeeling.

Awakening the dark bloodline changed him from before.

But whenever she thought of the beautiful memories she had with Xie Guixue,

and how he had accompanied her for so long during those apocalyptic times, she couldn’t just turn away.

She touched the place where her heart should be and understood that she actually held deep feelings for Xie Guixue.

After not seeing him for such a long time, she missed him and also worried about him.

It’s just that she wouldn’t usually voice these thoughts, to avoid burdening those around her.

But since she saw him in a dream, Su Muyao could not simply give up as he wanted.

Because she had given up on him once.

Without his consent, she had broken the pact when he was unconscious.

This matter was initially related to Master Xie, but ultimately, she had nodded her agreement.

If Master Xie truly cared for Xie Guixue, really wanted the best for him, it would have been fine.

But Master Xie was not kind to him. He used him and then abandoned him.

She felt she ought to bear some responsibility as this matter involved her.

So this time, she wanted to stand her ground.

"Guixue, I don’t believe this is what you truly feel. Is there something troubling you?"

"I haven’t seen you in so long; I’ve always been worried about you and missing you."

She felt that emotionally, anything necessary should be spoken to prevent further misunderstandings.

Xie Guixue’s eyes, cold like ice crystals, grew darker and deeper, "Troubles, what troubles does Miss Su think I could have?"

"In the eyes of you beastmen, Demon Race Beastmen are Dark Beastmen, beings that aren’t accepted, unaware that my demon race blood is of unparalleled nobility."

"Awakening the demon race bloodline is wonderful, with absolutely no troubled intentions."

If it weren’t for that lingering memory in his mind, Xie Guixue wouldn’t have wasted his breath talking to her here.

Back then, he didn’t know why he fancied this female.

But now it’s just right to sever these ties.

"Besides, it was Miss Su who dissolved the contract, severing the relationship between us, so saying these words now, do they still hold any meaning?"

Su Muyao’s mind was shaken violently, her heart seemingly hammered, aching to the point of suffocation.

Being spoken to like this made her nose tingle with sourness. She stepped forward to grab Xie Guixue’s sleeve but was avoided by him.

"Falling into the demon was not your voluntary choice."

"Even if not voluntary, I am a Demon Race Beastman by nature, destined to return to the Demon Realm."

"For that, I really should thank you."

"There’s no need to dwell on past matters. Don’t think I won’t take action against you."

Xie Guixue said this last sentence, his expression complex.

When he fully awakened his demon race bloodline, the former him had, to prevent this exact scenario, set a Forbidden Technique ensuring that no matter what, he couldn’t harm this female.

The former self was really stupid.

Su Muyao looked at his expression, realizing that he was no longer the Xie Guixue she once knew.

At this moment, she understood a bit about Demon Race Beastmen, realizing that coldness and ruthlessness may run in their blood.

Although she didn’t want to believe it, seeing Xie Guixue’s eyes, she somewhat understood.

Su Muyao suppressed the aching sensation in her heart and softly asked, "Are you alright in the Demon Realm? Are you injured or suffering any grievance?"

Xie Guixue replied blandly, "Very well, my powers as a Demon Race Beastman are increasing swiftly."

"Also, I advise you to avoid confronting Demon Race Beastmen and to safeguard yourself."

"Otherwise, should you truly be killed by a strong demon, I will not intervene."

Due to the imprints and powers he had previously left on her, ordinary Dark Beastmen dared not approach her, let alone harm her.

But if it’s a powerful pure-blood Demon Race Beastman, those powers wouldn’t be able to protect her.

Su Muyao nodded, "I see. If you’re happy in the Demon Realm, that’s good."

She actually wanted to say much more and ask many questions, but it was evident that Xie Guixue had run out of patience. With a wave of his sleeve, he conjured a gust that sent Su Muyao flying away.

By the time Su Muyao awoke again, it was already daylight.

Wen Nanxi was no longer in the room.

He got up early to prepare breakfast.

Su Muyao got up, still lost in the dream she had come from.

She knew that Xie Guixue was no longer the Xie Guixue she once knew; after awakening the demon race bloodline, it seemed like he had changed personalities.

Before, he always appeared to have a dual personality, which was related to his inherent demon race bloodline.

Su Muyao sat up, wrapping her arms around her knees, resting her head on them, and curling up to quietly think about things.

She thought about Xie Guixue; her heart felt uneasy.

"Host, what’s wrong?"

Upon hearing the system’s voice, Su Muyao recounted the dream encounter and conversation with Xie Guixue.

The system was a bit surprised, "Xie Guixue’s personality has completely changed."

"But perhaps that was expected."

"As a Demon Race Beastman, he is the earliest Dark Beastman. Demon race bloodlines are more noble than Dark Beastman bloodlines."

"The rank within the demon race bloodlines is strict; the stronger the bloodline, the stronger the power."

"And the Demon Race Beastman’s cultivation method differs from other beastmen’s. They likely gain power simply by absorbing dark energy."

Having been with the host in the Beast World for such a long time, hearing about so many things and accessing ancient books, the system understood Demon Race Beastmen to some extent.

"Do you think they are inherently cold-blooded and unfeeling?"

The system paused silently for a moment before saying, "I really don’t know."

"Host, don’t feel sad. Normally, if he were truly cold-blooded and unfeeling, he might have taken action against you. Even in a dream where you were unguarded, he could have harmed you."

"But he didn’t harm you, proving he isn’t as cold-blooded and unfeeling as imagined; maybe there’s a real trouble or some changing reason."

The system’s words reassured Su Muyao a bit, "Perhaps, I’ll figure it out."

Cheering up, Su Muyao went to freshen up and eat breakfast.

Not long after breakfast, Shadow and several Hidden Guards brought back a barely alive Lion Beastman.

Xie Xiaoqi saw this person, ran up crying, and said, "Father!"

"Father, what’s wrong with you?"

He wanted to touch his father, but seeing his wounds and the blood, he didn’t dare move.

Shadow said, "Master, this is the Xie Family’s new Beast Husband, the Phantom Lion Beastman Zhuang Beiyuan."

"When I followed the paper crane route given by Master, he was being hunted by many assassins. He tried to fight them with an all-out suicidal approach but nearly died himself. Fortunately, I fed him the elixir prepared by Master, and now he still breathes."

Shadow knew that as long as there was a breath left, the Master’s abilities could save the person.

Xie Xiaoqi was frightened by those words.

"Who was hunting my father?"

Shadow looked at Su Muyao, who said, "It’s okay, just speak."

"These were people arranged by Master Xie, and these tokens were found on the assassins."

"There was also an assassin still alive, but he committed suicide as we approached."

"So only these things were left."

"These are storage bags from the hands of the assassins."
