Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 355 - 354: Opportunity

Su Muyao heard this and her expression shifted slightly. She mused, "So you come from the Fire Fox Clan?"

"Are all the beastmen in the Fire Fox Clan like this?"

This Fire Ability Fire Fox Beastman bristled as if covered with spikes and sharply retorted, "What do you mean ’like this’?"

"Why are you asking this, just kill if you want to kill."

He had witnessed the ferocity of this female and had an instinctive fear of her.

But it baffled him; she had even killed their leader but hadn’t killed him yet, and was asking so many questions.

"Is the true form of the Fire Fox Clan all red fox fur?"

"But you have six tails."

She remembered Hua Linye had nine tails.

The person cast a strange glance at the female but still answered, "In the Fire Fox Clan, the purer the red fur, the higher the bloodline, and the stronger the Fire Ability."

"The number of tails also signifies talent, with the highest ranking being ten tails, but that’s something only from the ancestor’s era. Nowadays, the Fire Fox Clan doesn’t even have Nine-tailed Fox Beastmen, with eight tails being the maximum."

"I originally had eight tails, but unfortunately, two were cut off."

Speaking of this, a strong hatred filled his eyes.

Su Muyao saw the hatred in his eyes and continued to ask, "What’s the situation with the Fire Fox Clan now?"

"Heh, what else can it be? Ever since decades ago, when the Young Clan Leader gave up the position of Clan Leader to marry the Golden Crow Bird Beast Leader and died, the Fire Fox Clan has been in constant conflict."

"What a foolish decision."

Giving up the inheritance of the Clan Leader’s position and marrying into another tribe, only to lose one’s life, causing internal strife within the Fire Fox Clan.

If that hadn’t happened, his parents wouldn’t have died, and he wouldn’t have been driven out of the tribe after having his tail cut off.

Those people deserve to die.

"Has the Fire Fox Clan recently found any pure-blooded Fire Fox male beastmen?"

This person shook his head and replied truthfully, "No."

Su Muyao guessed that the Fire Fox Clan might still not know of Hua Linye’s existence.

And she didn’t know where Hua Linye was currently.

Su Muyao asked several questions about the Fire Fox Clan, and the beastman answered one by one.

The sword in the female’s hand was at his neck, so he dared not to refuse.

He couldn’t figure out the female’s intentions, but he didn’t want to die since he could still live.

Moreover, having witnessed her terrifying power, he had an instinctive fear of this female.

"Why are you here to kill me?"

"I don’t know, I only know it was a task assigned from above, to capture you and bring you back, dead or alive. Our leader thought you were rather troublesome and a threat, so he decided to kill you."

"I was only following orders."

Su Muyao’s lips curled into a cold arc, and she pressed the sword deeper, drawing fresh blood from the beastman’s neck.

"The Bright Hall’s Law Enforcement Disciples are notorious for their viciousness, don’t talk to me about following orders."

"The task assigned from above, who does ’above’ refer to?"

She had just arrived on the Cang Beast Continent, and normally, no one should know her whereabouts.

But these people were clearly targeting her, emanating an air of mystery.

She believed she wasn’t worth the Bright Hall mobilizing to such an extent to kill her; there must be more to it.

"It was an order from Elder Gao of the Fourth Sub-Hall."

Su Muyao’s eyes narrowed dangerously, "Elder Gao, tell me about the Fourth Sub-Hall."

The beastman shivered fiercely under Su Muyao’s gaze and answered cautiously, "Our base is managed by the Fourth Sub-Hall, which has two elders overseeing all matters."

"Elder Gao is the Second Elder of the Fourth Sub-Hall, equivalent to a deputy. We must accomplish the tasks he assigns, or else no one can withstand the Bright Hall’s punishment. Elder Gao mentioned that the female they wanted to kill came from the Mortal Beast Continent, possessing Level 10 Wood Ability, along with some hidden cards, so we must not take it lightly. That’s why our leader brought so many of us..."

The beastman said a lot, but just as he was about to reveal key information about the Bright Hall, a restriction inside him suddenly surged out, causing him to self-destruct instantly.

"Boom..."

Fortunately, Su Muyao was prepared and quickly retreated.

Nonetheless, she had learned quite a bit of useful information.

But her body had reached its limit; as she retreated, her vision went black, and she fainted all of a sudden.

...

When Su Muyao awoke again, she found herself inside a cave.

"Cousin, you’re finally awake."

Bi Zhixu breathed a sigh of relief once he saw Su Muyao had awakened.

"Where is this?"

Bi Zhixu explained, "This is a cave inside the Ancient Ruins Canyon."

"When Cousin fainted, I saw you were severely injured, so I had to instruct my subordinates to find a place nearby to rest and recover. Luckily, we found this cave."

Even though Cousin killed many of the Bright Hall’s Law Enforcement Disciples, we also suffered heavy casualties, and now only two subordinates and my servant are left.

"Cough, cough..."

As he spoke, Bi Zhixu began to cough again.

Su Muyao looked at Bi Zhixu and asked, "Is Cousin’s injury okay?"

During the battle, Bi Zhixu had sustained both external and internal injuries.

"It’s nothing serious. Thanks to the elixirs Cousin gave me earlier, they worked well. I’ve gotten much better after taking them, but it might take a few days to fully recover."

Previously, in the Xuanyuan Tribe, Su Muyao had prepared some common elixirs for Bi Zhixu.

However, the effect of elixirs couldn’t compare to her Wood Element Ability.

She wanted to use her Wood Element Ability, but since she had used the Secret Technique before, she couldn’t summon the Wood Element Ability at all now.

Additionally, she was extremely weak and exhausted, with no strength left, and even moving a finger was taxing.

This feeling of powerlessness was frustrating.

Su Muyao tried to continuously stimulate the Wood Element Ability, but it was still useless.

However, as she tried to stimulate it, the cave seemed to emit some Wood Element Ability energy.

She quickly operated and absorbed some Wood Element Ability, feeling a bit of strength return to her body.

"Cousin, you just woke up and are still weak, have something to eat first."

Su Muyao waved her hand, "I’m not hungry right now."

With that, she stood up and moved towards the inside of the cave. Upon reaching the inside, there was only a wall.

But some Wood Element Superpower was seeping through the wall.

The system said, "Host, this wall is a Blinding Technique, with mechanisms and restrictions. I sensed some pure Wood Element Superpower inside."

Su Muyao, though weak, couldn’t break the restriction, but when she placed her hand on the wall and tried to absorb the Wood Element Ability seeping out, the wall seemed to sense something. A light circle vortex appeared in the middle of the stone wall.

Next, Su Muyao was swallowed into it.

"Cousin!"

Bi Zhixu, disregarding everything, reached out to grab Su Muyao, but he too was sucked inside.

When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a palace, with a statue standing in the middle.

The statue held a box in its hand.

At some point, the box opened, and inside, a green Crystal Core was exposed, radiating a dazzling light.

Bi Zhixu looked at the Crystal Core, astonished, "This is a Wood Element Superpower Crystal Core, something that only existed in ancient times."

"This place is called the Ancient Ruins Canyon, said to be an Ancient Battlefield Ruin. Many experts have come to seek opportunities here, but none have found anything substantial."

"Never thought it was here."

Bi Zhixu looked down at his cousin beside him and suddenly felt that she must have some great opportunity.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have just happened to enter here.

He knew that opportunities and treasures left behind from ancient times could only be obtained by those destined.

If one is not destined, no amount of digging will unearth anything.
