The Villainess Cannot Escape — Five Beast Husbands Chase Her Madly-Chapter 119: Night Abyss’s Fury: Is This How You Protect Her?

Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Night Abyss’s Fury: Is This How You Protect Her?

Su An’an noticed something was off with Night Abyss’s gaze. She quickly walked over to him, pointed at the dancing Flame Flower, and asked, "Where did you buy this?"

"I bought it at a flower shop."

Night Abyss suppressed his anger toward Lan Cangming and held up the cluster of Spirit Flame Flowers, which flickered like dancing flames:

"I told you I’d give you these before I went to the Rotting Lair. I never forgot."

Su An’an froze.

She remembered when Night Abyss had asked her to teach him a Sweet Kiss, saying he would give her Spirit Flame Flowers and ask to make love.

The fiery red petals of the bouquet were still dotted with dewdrops, clearly freshly cut from a greenhouse.

"Thank you, they’re beautiful. It’s just that..."

Su An’an looked at the Flame Flower blossoms with a troubled expression.

She had just been cultivating the Mermaid Love Treasure Book with Lan Cangming, so it felt wrong to accept Night Abyss’s gift.

"I’m just fulfilling my promise."

Night Abyss’s voice was as light as a feather. "I took two hours of leave. I’ll go right after we eat."

"Okay."

Only then did Su An’an dare to accept the bouquet.

Night Abyss lowered his gaze to her swollen red lips and clenched his jaw. His sinister eyes shot daggers at Lan Cangming.

"I told you to take care of our Female Master. Is this how you do it?"

’He and Big Cat couldn’t even bear to be anything but gentle with her. Even during their most intimate moments, their touch was as light as holding a dewdrop.’

’But this ice block of a fish spends one afternoon with the Female Master and kisses her lips until they’re as red and swollen as rotten cherries.’

’He deserves to die.’

Lan Cangming stood behind Su An’an with his eyes lowered, a cold aura surging around him, but he didn’t speak.

"Speak!"

A cloud of purplish-black poison mist rose from Night Abyss’s palm and shot toward Lan Cangming’s face.

Lan Cangming’s fingertips twitched, and countless Ice Crystals materialized in front of him, forming a barrier.

"Stop!"

Su An’an took a half-step sideways, placing herself between them.

The poison mist and frost dissipated with a WHOOSH just half an inch in front of her as Night Abyss and Lan Cangming simultaneously withdrew their power.

"I was the one who insisted on practicing kissing techniques. It’s not Lan Cangming’s fault,"

Su An’an explained earnestly.

"If you want to practice, you can come to me."

A hurt, dark look surfaced in Night Abyss’s eyes, and his voice was like sandpaper.

"I would never hurt you. Or is it that you only have room for him in your heart?"

"That’s not it. You’ve misunderstood."

Su An’an didn’t know how to explain, so she could only look at Lan Cangming.

"Can we tell him? I don’t want there to be a rift between us."

Lan Cangming lowered his gaze to her anxious expression, thought for a moment, and finally shook his head.

"If the rules of the secret manual are leaked, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"In a mild case, one’s sea of consciousness could shatter. In a severe case, it could be life-threatening."

"What rules?"

Night Abyss snapped his head up, his dark red, vertical pupils narrowing dangerously. "What exactly are you two practicing?"

"It’s a Secret Technique that can only be practiced with the Mermaid Clan."

Su An’an racked her brain to explain:

"It requires spiritual power resonance to cultivate, so we can’t do it with any other beastmen."

"It’s okay. I understand."

Night Abyss’s voice suddenly softened. He reached out and smoothed a stray strand of her hair.

"I made your favorite charcoal-grilled star-rail steak and mixed a non-alcoholic coral bubble drink. Go on, eat!"

"I really am hungry!"

Su An’an’s eyes lit up, and she walked eagerly toward the dining room.

The two Beast Husbands tacitly fell half a step behind.

A Dark Black Dragon Scale appeared in Night Abyss’s palm, and the poison mist transformed into a sharp sword, stabbing toward Lan Cangming.

A Hexagonal Ice Crystal Shield condensed in Lan Cangming’s palm to block it, leaving behind a web of icy cracks.

"You’ve recovered your power."

Night Abyss stared at the blue light flowing across Lan Cangming’s palm. "With Anan’s spiritual power?"

When they had clashed this morning, Lan Cangming’s Frost Power was clearly insufficient.

But now, he could already form a perfect Hexagonal Ice Crystal.

Lan Cangming watched Su An’an’s cheerful back and said in a low voice, "She saved me."

The jealousy in Night Abyss’s eyes flared into a furious blaze. He grabbed Lan Cangming by the neck and slammed him against the wall.

"You’d abuse her body just to recover your power? How dare you!"

"I did not."

Lan Cangming grabbed Night Abyss’s arm in a counter-move.

"She was the one who asked to cultivate."

Night Abyss retorted furiously, "If she wanted to jump off a building, would you just stand there and watch?"

"No one can stop her from doing what she sets her mind to,"

Lan Cangming said coldly. "Otherwise, you wouldn’t be alive today."

Night Abyss froze.

He remembered how Su An’an had gone against the opposition of all the beastmen, using her Life Force to share and restore his shattered Beast Core.

The madness and stubbornness in her eyes at that time replayed clearly in his memory.

"Rest assured, I would rather shatter into dust myself than let a single hair on her head be harmed."

Lan Cangming said in a deep voice, "On that, we are the same."

"Remember what you said!"

Night Abyss glared at him through gritted teeth and finally let go.

Standing three steps apart, the two of them straightened their clothes.

"Night Abyss! Lan Cangming! If you don’t come now, the steak is going to get cold!"

Su An’an’s call drifted from the dining room.

"Coming." As Night Abyss turned, his face was already wreathed in a gentle smile.

The two beastmen walked into the dining room side-by-side and sat down, one on her left and one on her right.

Under the table, Night Abyss’s dragon tail silently coiled around her ankle, his scales warm as they brushed against her skin.

Not to be outdone, Lan Cangming’s fin slithered up her calf, secretly competing with the dragon tail.

Su An’an paused in the middle of cutting her steak, then suddenly lifted her foot and kicked Night Abyss’s dragon tail away.

Then she slapped away Lan Cangming’s encroaching fin with the back of her hand, her almond-shaped eyes wide. "When we eat, we eat! If you two keep messing around, nobody eats!"

Stunned by her sudden actions, the two beastmen froze in place. The dragon tail and fin hastily retreated.

Su An’an nodded in satisfaction and picked up her knife and fork again. "That’s more like it. Now, eat."

As soon as the meal was over and the robot butler had cleared the plates,

Night Abyss opened his smart device and sent a list to Su An’an. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"This is the appeasement list sent over by the Mad Beast Institute."

Su An’an opened the list and asked in confusion,

"Are matters of the Mad Beast Institute also under your jurisdiction?"

"Director Simon is my adoptive father."

Night Abyss lowered his eyes, hiding the turbulent thoughts within. "When I was sixteen, he found me unconscious with a high fever during a storm, brought me back to the Mad Beast Institute, and taught me how to fight and interrogate."

"I owe everything I have today to his guidance."

"It sounds like he’s a decent beastman."

Su An’an looked at the list. In the A Level section, the Mouse Clan, Wolf Clan, and Parrot Clan were circled in red. "And very thoughtful."

’Ah Jin is from the Mouse Clan, Adela is from the Wolf Clan, and Wen Susu is from the Parrot Clan. They’d definitely be willing to appease beastmen of their own kind.’

Night Abyss chuckled softly. "He has adopted sixty-eight beastmen from different clans. In the end, only seven survived."

His fingertip slid across the list. "But those who did survive all became powerhouses in their respective fields."

"So these Mad Beasts were once elites of their clans?"

Su An’an raised an eyebrow.

"That’s right. The one from the Wolf Clan once bit through the throat of a Rebel Army captain. The one from the Mouse Clan is skilled at intelligence infiltration, and the one from the Parrot Clan is an expert in linguistic decoding."

Night Abyss said flatly, "Simon’s standards for choosing people have always been strict. The ones he circled are all worthy combat assets to recruit."

"But Ah Jin and the others have lost their ability to reproduce. They might not be willing to take on Beast Husbands,"

Su An’an frowned.

"Why don’t you ask them yourself? After all, by accepting these beastmen, they’ll gain protection and resources."

Night Abyss didn’t think Ah Jin and the others would refuse.

"Alright, I’ll ask them right now."

Su An’an took out her smart device and sent the list to Ah Jin, Adela, and Wen Susu.

"You two chat. Big Fish and I will go for a walk."

Night Abyss stood up and shot a glance at Lan Cangming.

Lan Cangming also rose tacitly.

For a moment, their eyes met, and it was as if lightning flashed and thunder rolled.

"Don’t you dare!"

Su An’an glanced at the two of them and ordered,

"You, go see if Qiuqiu is awake. If he is, get him something to eat."

"Alright!"

Night Abyss smiled and nodded, then headed for the nursery.

Lan Cangming silently followed behind him.

The two of them opened the door, only to find the cub’s temperature-controlled incubator completely empty.
