Chapter 1007 - 993: Saying One Thing but Meaning Another

Last night, he loved her uncontrollably all night long.

Even now, when he thinks of those scenes, he can’t help but...

Xie Guixue closed his eyes briefly, trying hard to calm himself down.

He didn’t even know how to face her at the moment.

Su Muyao’s previous foot injury healed quickly with the Wood Element Ability, and after a hot shower, her whole body felt comfortable.

She wore the clothes Xie Guixue had altered for her, and the size was just right.

Su Muyao found it strange and asked, "How did you know my size?"

Her figure now is not quite the same as before, one could say it’s more perfect; slender where it should be, and fuller where it should be.

Xie Guixue helplessly closed his eyes, after the contract last night, how could he not know her size.

This kind of question is simply unanswerable.

Su Muyao saw him not answering, only his ears getting redder, and she smiled with crescent-shaped eyes.

Seeing him like this, it was clear he wasn’t indifferent to her.

However, the system also said that his consciousness here was somewhat different from his consciousness in reality.

Perhaps he doesn’t remember things like extracting emotional silk after cultivating the Heartless Path.

Or perhaps there are other reasons.

Perhaps in his dreams, he acts more instinctively, with emotions outweighing reason.

But after all, this Xie Guixue now is also real.

This moment is better.

This time it was her turn to be proactive.

She intentionally used a coquettish tone, "Guixue, why are you ignoring me, not speaking?"

"Last night you said you couldn’t bear to ignore me."

"How come after having your way with me, it’s different?"

Xie Guixue’s throat gently rolled, his icy brow and eyes suddenly tinged with blush, not daring to look at Su Muyao.

Afraid she would continue asking, he could only softly explain, "Just a glance to know the size."

Su Muyao walked behind Xie Guixue and leaned close to his ear, "I thought you knew my size with your hands."

After saying this, Xie Guixue’s ears turned even redder, and she playfully exhaled by his ear, "Guixue, I like how you were with me last night."

Hearing this, Xie Guixue suddenly stood up, his breathing chaotic.

Seeing his slightly panicked appearance, Su Muyao laughed cheerfully.

She still liked this Xie Guixue, with alive and real feelings, rather than being cold and indifferent.

The more he was like this, the more she couldn’t help but say such things to him.

He quickly picked up another clean piece of Beast Skin and handed it to her, saying in a low voice, "Your hair is still wet; dry your hair first."

Su Muyao had just finished her shower, and her hair wasn’t fully dried and remained damp.

Seeing his ears turning deep red, Su Muyao temporarily quieted down.

She naturally took the Beast Skin but deliberately hooked his palm with her fingers.

Xie Guixue sighed inwardly.

While drying her hair, Su Muyao noticed her change of clothes being washed clean and placed on a wooden rack to be dried by fire.

Including her undergarments.

She knew she didn’t have spare undergarments to change into; Xie Guixue had washed these for her.

Thinking about how Xie Guixue had washed them clean for her while she was showering made her face feel a bit warm.

He really was like someone coldly washing undergarments.

Next to them, there was also Beast meat roasting, smelling delicious.

After a whole night, waking up in the morning and running in the rain for such a long time, she was also quite hungry now.

She came to the rack and naturally sat down.

Last night upon arriving, there was no Beast Skin on the ground, but now, at some unknown time, it had been laid down. Sitting with her feet on the soft, clean Beast Skin felt really comfortable.

In fact, Xie Guixue had prepared it when he woke up in the morning.

Su Muyao had run out to find Xie Guixue first thing upon waking up, naturally not noticing the change in the cave’s floor.

So she sat directly on the Beast Skin, looking at the rack, "It smells so good."

With the strong fragrance in the air, her stomach began to grumble.

"Rumble rumble..."

Su Muyao felt a bit embarrassed, covered her stomach, and looked at Xie Guixue, saying, "I seem hungry."

Xie Guixue sat down and looked back at the rack. The meat wasn’t done yet; he took a fruit from beside him and handed it to Su Muyao, saying, "Eat something to ease your hunger."

Su Muyao took the fruit and looked at it—it was bright red, not like a Magic Fruit, nor did she know where he got it from.

It seemed to be picked early this morning.

And it had been washed clean too.

Su Muyao took a bite; her eyes curved into crescent shapes and she smiled sweetly, "Delicious, crispy, and sweet, with plenty of juice."

Eating such a fruit was very refreshing.

Xie Guixue dared not look at Su Muyao’s expression, just quietly sat there, eyes straight ahead.

Su Muyao saw him not even glancing toward her, so different from last night.

She deliberately scooted a bit closer to him, her upper body nearly leaning against him.

Xie Guixue’s body was stiff and tense.

Su Muyao deliberately blew gently into his ear and said, "Gui Xue, why won’t you look at me?"

"You weren’t like this last night."

Xie Guixue turned his head to look at Su Muyao, just catching sight of the mark on her collarbone. His eyes trembled, and he quickly turned his head away, "Sit properly first."

At that moment, Xie Guixue felt an uncontrollable panic.

When a piece of the tenderest beast meat was ready, he moved his fingers, using the Wind and Snow Ability to gently control the temperature, so the meat was neither too hot nor too cold, just right.

Then he cut the meat into small pieces and placed them in a wooden bowl, put a few clean leaves inside, and handed her a fork, "Weren’t you hungry? Eat up."

Su Muyao felt a bit frustrated; Xie Guixue was like impenetrable oil smoke, difficult to approach.

She was indeed hungry; she needed to fill up before she had the strength to launch an attack.

She picked up a piece of meat with the fork and ate it. In her mouth, the meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, very delicious.

She also ate the meat wrapped in leaves, which had a unique taste.

"Is beast meat really this delicious?"

Ever since entering the Demon Realm, she and Jing Chu had been eating the food from the space almost exclusively.

They had eaten beast meat on the road, but it was hard to eat, she couldn’t get used to it at all.

So when they arrived at the Black Valley Tribe of Ba’er, where they offered the tribe’s beast meat to them, they declined.

Unexpectedly, this was delicious.

Xie Guixue’s cold brows moved slightly, but he didn’t say much and continued roasting and cutting meat.

This beast meat is different from other beast meat, suitable for ordinary beastmen to eat, and of great quality.

That’s why he went far away early in the morning to hunt this kind of beast.

The fruit is also one of the most unique fruits in the Demon Realm, suitable for ordinary beastmen to eat, without much demonic qi.

However, Xie Guixue wouldn’t say these things.

After Su Muyao finished one bowl, she finally regained her strength.

She thought this beast meat was unusual, very replenishing.

Only then did Su Muyao realize that Xie Guixue wasn’t eating, "Why aren’t you eating?"

"You eat first."

He passed her another bowl.

Su Muyao saw he wasn’t eating and used the fork to pick up a piece of meat, bringing it to his mouth, "You should eat too."

Xie Guixue inwardly sighed, saying, "Don’t be troublesome."

This kind of beast is extremely rare; he had hunted only this one, saving it for her to eat.

Su Muyao seriously said, "You scared me out of my wits last night, your body needs to be in good condition."

"Eat quickly, or I won’t eat either."

Su Muyao vaguely sensed that Xie Guixue cared for her at this moment.

Thus she dared to be fearless and confident.

Otherwise, with Xie Guixue’s cold nature, let alone making a contract, he wouldn’t have let her stay in the cave last night.

Moreover, even the temperature of the meat was controlled well.

She could see all these details.

"If you don’t eat, I’ll feed you myself."

Su Muyao said, pursing her lips, ready to follow through.

Xie Guixue had no choice but to eat it.

Su Muyao’s eyes curved into a smile, "That’s better."

"You must be tired from last night, you should eat more to replenish yourself."

Xie Guixue was completely choked by this sentence, "Cough..."

He almost lost his breath.

He looked deeply at Su Muyao, his gaze dark and dangerous.

Su Muyao didn’t realize that this sentence would cause a misunderstanding, making Xie Guixue think she was saying he was inadequate.

This was a doubt towards his masculinity.

Su Muyao gently patted Xie Guixue’s back, "Take it easy."

After finishing the meal, the rain gradually subsided.

After tidying up, Xie Guixue looked at Su Muyao and said, "Once the rain stops, I’ll take you away from here."

Upon hearing this, Su Muyao reacted as if she’d been stung, "What did you say?"

"You want to drive me away from here? How could you do this?"

"Boo hoo, eating without responsibility, you’re a scum beast."

Su Muyao lowered her head, deliberately using her hand to wipe her eyes, feigning an accusatory and crying demeanor.

Anyway, whether it’s crying, making a fuss, or threatening, she was determined to stay by his side.

The system had painstakingly used its System Power to forcibly open the dream space for her; she couldn’t waste the time.

Because if there’s a next time, with Xie Guixue being wary and alert, he won’t enter the dream space again.

No matter why Xie Guixue, she couldn’t leave.

If before she cared about every word Xie Guixue said, now she thought he might be saying one thing but meaning another.
