CHAPTER 131: CHAPTER 123 THE GREAT DEMON KING ORIGINAL DEMON_1

She Wang’s mesmerizing purple snake-eyes narrowed instantly, his hissing tongue expressing his dissatisfaction.

Si Yan, catching his implication, asked uncertainly, "Why do you say I have a male with a Wood-based Ability?"

Wang was somewhat displeased by her denial, but seeing she didn’t seem to be trying to deceive him, he relented slightly.

Yet, an almost imperceptible trace of sourness tinged his voice.

"You used a Wood-based Ability during your fight today."

Realization dawned on Si Yan. "Oh, that."

Si Yan was straightforward and disliked pointless misunderstandings above all else.

She pulled She Wang down to sit on the stone stool beside her.

She extended her palm. "Wood-based Ability..."

Green tendrils swirled around her hand, and then a small purple flower bloomed from it.

Si Yan’s smile was as radiant as a blossom. "Great Demon King, this suits you. It’s for you."

She Wang’s eyes remained narrowed, the sourness emanating from him intensifying.

Was she still claiming she didn’t have a Beast Husband with a Wood-based Ability? Did he look like a fool?

Si Yan’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled. "Great Demon King, you’ve misunderstood. My Wood-based Ability isn’t borrowed; it’s my own."

Wang’s slit pupils suddenly rounded. He turned to her in disbelief and asked, "What did you say?"

Green light surrounded Si Yan’s hands as flowers blossomed one after another, forming rings that encircled them both.

The handsome man and beautiful woman, surrounded by a cluster of blooms, created a particularly charming scene.

Si Yan looked at Wang with a smile, his cold-blooded Beastman eyes reflecting the proud little expression of the female before him.

"This really is my own power. Look, isn’t it pretty?"

Si Yan asked with a smile, "Aren’t I impressive?"

"How am I so amazing?" she preened.

It was her power? Her *own* power? Not borrowed from some damn male?

The male’s expression gradually softened. After a moment, he reached out, his cool hand gently ruffling Si Yan’s hair.

"Impressive."

Si Yan felt even prouder.

"However," Wang looked at Si Yan seriously, "there’s no precedent in this world for a female being born with a Special Ability. If other Beastmen find out, who knows what might happen."

The cold-blooded Beastman’s face was expressionless, yet he spoke very earnestly, "Don’t tell anyone it’s your own Special Ability."

"Just say that you have a Beast Husband with a Wood-based Ability who might be dead in some forgotten corner."

"Understand?"

She has Special Abilities; it might be easier for her to bear offspring with Special Abilities. This world has never seen a female with Special Abilities. If the other males in this world knew such a female existed, they might go mad. And he... he also has a Special Ability. If their offspring... the chances of them having Special Abilities would be very high.

Wang’s gaze on Si Yan grew increasingly intense.

Si Yan asked naively, "Great Demon King, you’re telling me to claim I have another male? Are you asking me to imply you’re being cuckolded?"

The cold-blooded Beastman turned utterly frigid, so cold he could freeze someone to death at any moment.

Si Yan scratched her small nose in embarrassment. "To protect me, I suppose you’re willing to be wronged like this, huh?"

Si Yan wasn’t entirely ignorant of such matters. Although she and Wang were still in the process of adjusting to each other, she could sense that this male was, in his own way, being good to her. For a male who had lived in darkness for so long, this was exceptionally rare.

The tall Beastman stood up.

Si Yan immediately grabbed him. "Wait, can you not go yet?"

Having tasted the benefits, Si Yan was eager to spend every moment with him so her own power could grow faster.

She Wang looked back at her hand holding his. "I’m going out to hunt. I’ll be back soon."

"Hm?" Si Yan’s stomach gurgled, and she let go of his hand.

"Oh."

She still hadn’t quite gotten used to her Beast Husband providing her with three meals a day.

Not long after, the tall, handsome male returned, carrying an entire boar on his back. He remembered Si Yan particularly liked the meat of this beast, so he had specifically hunted a boar.

Pork!!! Nice!!!

Looking at the meat on the ground, Si Yan was pleased but still emphasized to She Wang, "Great Demon King, I’m different from you; I’m omnivorous. I don’t just eat meat, I also eat plants. Vegetables are important to me, and I need salt too!"

Was she being too pushy, asking for so many things at once?

However, after hearing her, the male silently walked out. Not long after, Si Yan thought she heard faint, distant wailing.

"You’re going too far!"

"You can’t be so tyrannical just because you’re the lord..."

"SOB, SOB, SOB..."

Si Yan had a slightly ominous feeling. Unsure what was happening outside, she chose to ignore it...

Then, not long after, she saw the stunningly handsome, cold-blooded Beastman return carrying a large bag of Yellow Earth Fruit and Red Earth Fruit, some other tree fruits, and a large bag of salt.

Looking at the abundance of supplies scattered on the ground...

What was this feeling? Having a Beast Husband really made one’s sense of security skyrocket, didn’t it?

Si Yan laughed awkwardly. "Great Demon King, what was that noise outside...?"

She Wang set the items down and said very calmly, "A few troublemakers were acting up, so I disciplined them a bit. Yan Yan, here’s your salt."

Si Yan was speechless. "..."

He beat up some ’troublemakers’ and got salt? He really is the villainous Great Demon King incarnate. But... what did he just call me? Yan Yan? Never mind, forget it.

Si Yan started a fire and began to cook. The male leaned against the stone wall, looking as if he were about to fall asleep again.

Gecko had said his body was like a leaky sieve, constantly absorbing and losing energy, which was why he spent most of his time sleeping.

I wonder if there’s a way to fix his problem.

While he slept, Si Yan stealthily studied him. The sleeping male’s face was devoid of any cruel or sinister aura; his skin was snow-white, smooth, and delicate. His long, purple hair lay soft and loose, strands falling across his sharply defined features. His countenance was cool and aloof, so handsome he seemed otherworldly.

Suddenly, Si Yan had the urge to find some black silk and make him a robe. The cold-blooded Great Demon King, dressed in a black silk robe that clung to his form, exuding a cool and refined aura—he would surely look stunning.

Si Yan’s face flushed, and she quickly looked away.

Aaargh, Si Yan, are you out of your mind? Lusting after the Great Demon King! And even fantasizing about him dressing up in clothes you picked out, just for you to see! What blatant daydreaming!

After Si Yan prepared the food and ate with the cubs, the cubs went to sleep on the newly made bed inside the cave.

Si Yan looked at the two well-behaved cubs, then at She Wang, who had fallen asleep on the ground.

After a moment’s thought, she walked over to She Wang, gently moved one of his arms, and snuggled into his embrace.

She settled into a comfortable position and closed her eyes.

Cultivating while lying down—so comfortable!

After Si Yan fell asleep, She Wang opened his eyes. Delicate shimmers of light flowed through the depths of his dark purple eyes.

He hugged Si Yan tighter and lowered his head, inhaling the scent of her hair.

She had just washed her face and hair. Her skin was as delicate as a freshly peeled egg, and her hair carried the faint, sweet fragrance of river water mingled with flower petals.
