The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 408 - 313: Demon Gu

Sky-mist Canyon, The Wolf Tribe, inside the largest blue brick house.

The afternoon sun streamed through the lattice windows, casting patterns on the tiles of the master bedroom floor.

Luna Sutton lay resting on the couch, holding her belly, covered with a thin blanket, when she suddenly awoke from a nightmare.

Her face was pale, clutching her wildly beating heart, her fingertips tightly gripping the beast skin blanket.

In her dream, Malachi Arcanus and Mael Valerius were falling into a pitch-black abyss, struggling with bloodied bodies, and there was Kian Sterling, turning away with a cold smile, as sinister as a demon from hell.

Remembering that Malachi had gone to the Southern Grolnok to hunt today, her expression turned even more grim.

She was about to ask the system.

The system’s alarm erupted in her mind: "Host, Kian Sterling sent people to ambush Malachi Arcanus in Grolnok, where he was attacked by a Tyrannosaur, Mammoth, and Saber-toothed Tiger. At a critical moment, Mael Valerius arrived to save him. However, the two fell into the trap laid by Kian Sterling and were crushed into The Endless Abyss by falling boulders."

"Impossible!"

Luna Sutton almost screamed out loud in her consciousness, her heart felt as if it were clenched by a cold hand, her blood seemed to freeze, "How could Kian Sterling... How could he possibly harm Malachi? That’s Malachi! The brother who accompanied him through everything. Don’t forget, when Kian Sterling was able to evolve into a Ten-Tailed Celestial Fox, it was because Malachi gave him a Beast Pill..."

She didn’t believe a single word, even though Kian Sterling had expressed his desire to possess her alone and had said he wanted to kill them.

But subconsciously, she still couldn’t believe Kian Sterling would do such a thing.

"You worthless system, haven’t you caught another virus from that rogue plug-in, spouting nonsense here?"

She angrily questioned in her heart.

She refused to believe, instinctively defending that gentle and jade-like partner.

Even though she knew the system wouldn’t lie to her, and even though she’d just had that prophetic dream, she still refused to believe it.

She would rather believe the system had caught a virus.

"Host, you are so unfair to me. I’ve accompanied you for so long, and yet, in your heart, I can’t even compare to Kian Sterling?"

The system’s aggrieved voice sounded in her mind: "If I were infected by a virus, would I still be able to talk to you so smoothly? There’s a Demon Gu inside Kian Sterling’s body; he was planted with it as a child. That thing amplifies the darkest desires in one’s heart, and he doesn’t even know it himself."

Before Luna Sutton could respond.

The system’s alarm once again sounded in her mind: "Host, detected Malachi Arcanus’ vital signs are rapidly declining. Mael Valerius’ energy fluctuations have been forcibly cut off, coordinates: Southern Grolnok, coordinates: Southern Grolnok!"

The voice carried an unprecedented urgency.

A boundless chill instantly crept up to the top of her skull.

Malachi’s big, hearty smile, and Mael Valerius’s dark golden eyes filled with complex stubbornness, even when looking at her after losing his memory... flashed alternately in her mind.

Kian Sterling seemed indeed not to be at The Wolf Tribe today, could he have gone to Grolnok?

"Demon Gu?"

Luna Sutton caught the key in the system’s words, her voice trembling, "What Demon Gu?"

She had never known that there was such a thing in Kian Sterling’s body, why had the system never mentioned it?

The system sighed and explained: "Host, Demon Gu is a sinister thing passed down from ancient times. This Gu worm is planted when young, with an extremely long latency period, and when mature, it infinitely amplifies the host’s deepest desires and darkness. Kian Sterling’s obsession to possess you was just the Demon Gu catalyzing and infinitely amplifying it, revealing his true face... just like that."

If a person harbors kindness and has no desires or obsessions, the Demon Gu, even if dormant within the body for an extended time, will have no effect.

Ultimately, it’s still Kian Sterling’s inherently dark nature, and the Demon Gu merely amplifies the obsession and malice in his heart.

Demon Gu... amplifying desire and malice... wanting to possess her alone...

Luna Sutton felt as if the world was spinning, her stomach churning.

It wasn’t due to morning sickness, but from the raw betrayal and calculated betrayal that made her nauseated to the point of vomiting.

She suddenly covered her mouth, her other hand pressed firmly against the armrest of the couch, as if she could draw some support.

Malachi... that recklessly straightforward Beastman, with a child in her belly...

Was just pushed into the abyss by Kian Sterling, someone he considered a brother?

And Mael Valerius... why was he there?

To save Malachi?

The one who always cursed her as a fraud and threatened to rip her soul was The Mad Dragon.

Finally, he went to save her Beast Husband and...

Luna Sutton dared not think further, overwhelmed by the immense absurdity and chilling fear, suffocating her.

"Why didn’t you say it earlier?"

She roared angrily in her heart, tears falling like a severed kite, blurring her vision.
