Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 525 - 521: Purpose

Su Muyao’s face was cold, her eyes sharp, as she raised her hand with a wave.

While controlling the rocks and the tremors, she wielded the Green Lotus Sword.

The members of the Moon Clan were stunned by the scene.

To think she could control the rocks in the air like that.

Is Miss Su really that powerful?

The green light from Su Muyao’s sword cut through the sky, aiming straight for the wraith.

Her sword speed was extremely fast, and the wraith reacted immediately, manipulating vines to act as a shield.

At the same time, it turned into black smoke, slipping away silently.

After escaping, it re-gathered the black smoke to attack Su Muyao again.

Now Su Muyao understood that this wraith was specifically targeting her.

Normally, there were no issues in the Ten Thousand Mountains, but just as she arrived, a wraith had broken the seal.

Did they want to kill her, or were they after something from her?

It wanted to escape, yet for some reason didn’t, instead hiding away suddenly.

It concealed itself, continuing to control numerous vines that twisted like venomous snakes, while sharp tree roots emerged from the ground, trying to hinder Su Muyao’s movement and simultaneously strike her down.

The Moon Clan Elders and Moon Guards were also ensnared by vines, unable to spare themselves to protect Su Muyao.

Wen Nanxi stepped in again, but Su Muyao did not let him act.

The Moon Clan members realized and wished to rush over to help guard Su Muyao from danger.

Su Muyao said calmly, "No need to move, I’ll handle it myself, I can do it."

Her Green Lotus Sword was exceedingly sharp, and where its light passed, vines and roots were all cut down, unable to approach her at all.

The wraith hidden within a tree hollow let out a shriek, seemingly enraged.

In an instant, surrounding trees shook violently, countless branches broke free from the soil, weaving into a deluge-like green net that covered the sky, thorn-laced vines headed straight for Su Muyao’s face. ​

Su Muyao pushed off with her toes, rising into the air, the Green Lotus Sword in her palm spun out an afterimage.

"Green Lotus Sword Technique, Qinglian Blade Transformation." She uttered softly, and layers of lotus petal phantoms blossomed on the sword body, swiftly condensing into sharp sword energy shaped like green lotus petals.

These sword energies were controlled by Su Muyao, darting like gale-force winds, slicing through the surrounding air with piercing screams.

Numerous sword energies shredded the multitude of vines ahead.

The plants imbued with yin energy were cut into countless fragments upon contact with the sword energy.

Meanwhile, as Su Muyao fought, she also accurately pinpointed the location of the wraith’s true form, using her sword light and the multitude of vine fragments as cover, her Green Lotus Sword penetrated like a green lightning bolt, striking the point where the ancient cypress trunk harbored the densest resentment.

Preventing it from escaping in time.

With a slight sound, the moment the blade pierced in, the entire ancient tree trembled violently, and all the vines went limp and fell.

From the tree hollow came a sharp, agonized scream as black mist, filled with resentment, surged forth.

"Ah..."

It cried out in pain, the black mist took shape.

It was a phantom of a young male, injured by the Green Lotus Sword, his phantom transparency shattered, almost unsustainable.

Wen Nanxi instantly used a Magic Artifact to encase him, preventing escape.

He hugged his body trembling, his eyes red, looking at Su Muyao with intense viciousness and murderous intent.

It was obvious, had he been able, he would still have tried to kill Su Muyao.

Wen Nanxi approached Su Muyao, carefully checking her, worried she might be hurt.

Su Muyao shook her head, "I’m fine."

Now with Level 28 superpower, even if this wraith had great strength, it couldn’t harm her.

Wen Nanxi said, "He was likely a Black Bear Beastman in life, and his target is you, wife."

Wraiths are formed from lingering grievances after death, an obsession turning into a wraith.

Once becoming a wraith, they also develop self-awareness.

"Wraiths strong enough will also possess high intelligence."

"His strength should be around Level 20, gained by devouring numerous grievances, granting awareness and thought."

Su Muyao had learned from the translations of ancient texts left by Yue Wuhen that wraiths are spiritual forms created by persistent obsessions of deceased beastmen, and by devouring grievances to gain strength, they can manifest into beast forms.

She wanted to interrogate this wraith, but obviously, such questioning was difficult.

"Why do you wish to kill me, and for what reason?"

He remained silent.

The system said, "If only Shen Ci’an were here, Shen Ci’an could use the Soul Searching Technique."

Mentioning Shen Ci’an, a change flickered in Su Muyao’s expression.

She missed Shen Ci’an too, but it seemed likely he had gone to the true ancestral grounds of the Blood Clan since he hadn’t returned from the trial ground beneath the altar for so long.

Through the ancient bamboo slips translated by Yue Wuhen, she had learned that Blood Clan Beastmen had existed since ancient times, living off blood, skilled in Evil Techniques, fearing light, active at night—a kind of Evil Beastman dating back to the same era as the Ancestral Dragon Beastman.

Though Dragon Beastmen no longer existed in the Beast World, tales about them were legend.

Meanwhile, Blood Clan Beastmen had survived so long, they should, by reason, possess many inherited abilities and memories, yet Shen Ci’an did not have those abilities.

But thinking carefully, Shen Ci’an’s powers were indeed unusual.

Such as the Charm Mind Reading Skill, and the Soul Searching Technique.

He could perform these techniques.

No matter the origins of Shen Ci’an’s Blood Clan, Su Muyao trusted him and worried about him.

The deeper her understanding, the more she realized, Beast World was more complex than she had imagined.

Su Muyao used her aura to suppress the Black Bear Beastman wraith, "Speak truthfully, and I might let you go."

With wraiths, the elixirs she had concocted previously were evidently ineffective. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Unable to get him to confess truthfully.

At this time, the elder on duty had dealt with those vines, quickly coming to Su Muyao.

"Miss Su, are you alright?"

"It’s our fault, allowing you to be startled."

Su Muyao shook her head, "I’m fine, but does your clan have any means to make the wraith explain itself?"

"Or the Soul Searching Technique?"

The Thirteen Elder spoke, "Miss Su, the Clan Leader has a method, he can interrogate the wraith."

Su Muyao nodded, "That’s good."

"I have nothing more here, you should go handle the clan matters first.

The Moon Clan was in chaos, and the elders had to settle everyone.

Once they confirmed Su Muyao was fine, they went off to address the clan’s issues as she suggested.

Briefly afterward, the distant tremors ceased, and the Clan Leader returned with another young male wraith restrained.

Su Muyao relayed to them what had just transpired within the clan.

The Clan Leader was also deeply concerned.

He likely understood what Su Muyao wanted to know, and he explained, "Apologies, Miss Su, it is our fault for failing to protect you adequately."

"They indeed had you as their target. They sacrificed many wraiths to allow these two through, aiming to secure your blood. Your true form is the Immortal Phoenix, and your blood can break open their seal, allowing all of them to be freed."

"Even your blood could be used to create immensely potent elixirs, further increasing a wraith’s power."

"That’s why they risked everything for this chance."

"Miss Su, you must be cautious when out there, do not reveal your true form as the Immortal Phoenix."
