Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 455 - 452: Related Matters

Su Muyao gazed at the door in front of her, painted with the ancient Nine-headed Heavenly Snake, feeling as though the serpent was right before her.

So lifelike, it seemed to come alive right in front of her.

Upon closer inspection, she felt as though it was moving, almost like an illusion.

Others might feel fear or even repulsion, but not Su Muyao.

To her, there was a sense of familiarity, a kind of closeness emanating from her very bones.

She paused, then asked, "Master Witch, are you sure you want me to open this door?"

"I’m seeing this scene from across time and space. Can I touch this door?"

Su Muyao felt that the Master Witch greatly esteemed her.

But she trusted the Master Witch; he would never harm her.

Nor would he deceive her.

The Snake Witch spoke, "Rest assured, this is the temple, you see the scene here through the temple, as if appearing via the temple. The Heavenly Snake, when it was the Snake God, possessed extremely powerful divine power, and the temple, needless to say, has accumulated the power of countless beastmen’s faith. Perhaps because of this, you have come here."

"And you are actually the Snake God’s chosen bride, only you can open this door."

"Inside is something left by the Snake God. None of us beastmen can open it; only you can."

"Try it."

The Snake Witch looked at Su Muyao with eyes full of trust and determination.

Su Muyao slowly walked forward, reaching the door.

Just standing before the door, Su Muyao felt a summoning force.

Something seemed to be calling her.

Su Muyao involuntarily placed her hand upon it, and suddenly she felt as if she possessed endless power.

This sensation was wondrous, making her feel as if she were floating, suddenly soaring onto the clouds.

Her mind whirled with scenes of the Nine-headed Heavenly Snake.

She even saw its human form as the Snake God, appearing as Wen Nanxi, yet his aura was entirely different—noble and divine.

Those eyes seemed to pity the mundane world.

Clearly resembling Wen Nanxi, Su Muyao felt such reverence towards him, as though he was something that could only be admired at a distance.

It made her instinctively respectful, not daring to entertain any other thoughts.

At that moment, the door slowly opened.

The Snake Witch exclaimed, "Indeed, only you can open it. Even across countless ages, you remain the chosen female of the Snake God, the Snake God’s bride, only you can open this to obtain the power left by the Snake God."

Su Muyao’s expression changed slightly, hearing the Snake Witch’s words.

Was she the Snake God’s chosen bride?

This concept was peculiar.

The Snake Witch couldn’t fathom the female before him, but he felt that her background must be extraordinary.

To be chosen by the Snake God wasn’t simple at all.

Inside the door were murals—all of which depicted the Nine-headed Snake God.

At the center was a humanoid sculpture, identical to Wen Nanxi.

At this moment, he held a box, this box also carved with serpent patterns.

"What is that?"

"It’s likely something the Snake God left behind. No one can enter or take it; only you, chosen by the Snake God, can obtain it and the power it bestows."

"Even I don’t know what it is."

"I once knew nothing either; during this ritual dance, I sensed something, and thus brought you here."

Earlier, even the Master Witch didn’t know what lay beyond the door.

Just knowing no one could open it.

Su Muyao felt the summoned force within, took step after step forward.

As she walked, a mist suddenly arose around her, she saw someone standing before her.

"Nanxi!"

Su Muyao exclaimed involuntarily upon seeing him.

Yet, after calling out and looking closely, she found he wasn’t Nanxi; his gaze and demeanor were different.

He was surrounded by clouds, glowing, holy and inviolable.

"Are you the Snake God?"

When he looked down at her, a gentle brightness flickered in his eyes, fleeting.

"You have finally come, this is meant for you."

His voice was ethereal and distant, coming from far away through time, yet so pleasant.

"Is it for me?"

Su Muyao stepped forward to take the box.

"Open it and see."

To her, his voice inherently carried a mysterious force. When he spoke, she could not help but comply.

Su Muyao opened the box to see inside, a blue-green scale, shimmering, seemingly swirling with blue-green dark patterns, exceedingly beautiful.

"What is this?"

Su Muyao felt some familiarity.

It resembled a scale from Wen Nanxi’s serpent form, yet was different.

This scale glowed, as if containing endless power.

"This is my Reversed Scale." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Upon it is my Primordial Spirit power."

"Holding this can harm me, weaken my strength, specifically restrain myself."

"Though small, it can change form according to your will, become a long blade, sword, or spear for battle. However, adapting its form requires your own powerful strength to control..."

Listening to this, Su Muyao’s eyes lit up: this was exactly what she needed now.

It meant she could use it to deal with Nan Feng.

"Are you the Snake God, and do you know of Nan Feng? With this can I deal with him, can I kill him?"

After all, it is a part of the Snake God, could be considered a vital part.

Taking his thing to deal with him, would the Snake God permit it?

"Yes, you can do anything."

"However, he’s not easy to kill."

Pausing, he seemed to lightly sigh, "I’m sorry, does his existence make things difficult for you?"

Su Muyao’s eyes reddened, "My Beast Husband, his name is Wen Nanxi, he was harmed repeatedly by Nan Feng."

"I want to save him."

"With this, it can lend you a hand, go ahead."

Su Muyao returned to reality, seemed to recall something, "Snake God, may I ask, why were Snake Beastmen later not favored, why are you no longer the Snake God?"

He explained softly, "Because there is a stronger force in this world controlling everything."

"Our power was stolen, weakened, the Snake Clan, Snake Beastmen were treated unjustly, every ten or more millennia, the Beast World undergoes an apocalyptic calamity, all related to these."

"But where they come from, what force, I don’t know."

"Now I’m merely a remnant consciousness on the Reversed Scale, long without past memories."

"However, I vaguely feel that after I ceased being the Snake God, the body split off experienced things possibly related to these incidents."

Listening to this, Su Muyao’s heart churned like stormy seas.

"Snake God, can you be restored?"

The Snake God’s calm eyes showed a trace of sorrow.

He wanted to say something, wanted to tell Su Muyao something, but he merely looked at her silently.

His gaze was too complex, leaving Su Muyao unable to comprehend.

She only felt a dense ache in her chest.
