Chapter 869 - 855: Getting Closer

Xuan Yan’s eyes at this moment were like snow piled on flower trees, blazing with beauty and shockingly gorgeous.

Faced with Xuan Yan’s enchanting and captivating appearance, Su Muyao felt as if she was enveloped in flames.

Most of the time, Xuan Yan’s aura was very restrained, never pressuring her.

But sometimes the tender love in his gaze was so deep that she couldn’t ignore it.

So when Su Muyao gave him a kiss on the cheek and tried to pull away, Xuan Yan pulled her into his arms.

Just holding his beloved female like this made Xuan Yan’s heart flutter.

Usually, Xuan Yan had great self-control.

But now, receiving a response from his wife, Xuan Yan no longer held back. He tightly embraced her waist to prevent her from retreating, lowered his head to gently approach, his eyes carrying an ultimate allure, fluctuating and tempting enough to make one unable to resist sinking into it.

Su Muyao watched as Xuan Yan gradually drew closer, struck by his breathtakingly beautiful and demonic features, her eyelashes lightly trembled.

Feeling the subtle atmosphere, Su Muyao involuntarily closed her eyes.

Xuan Yan’s throat gently moved, his gaze growing darker, as he lowered his head and kissed her on the brows and eyes.

He especially loved his wife’s eyes; every time she looked at him, a sense of indescribable joy welled up within him.

At those times, he felt her gaze was filled entirely with him.

Moreover, his wife’s eyes were so beautiful and lively as if they could speak.

His breath skimmed past her brows and eyes, gradually moving downward to land on her lips.

The breath started gentle and gradually became unrestrained.

He almost greedily devoured her breath.

"Mm..."

The kiss was so deep that Su Muyao couldn’t catch her breath for a moment.

Her body went soft.

It felt as if she was wrapped in something, about to be consumed.

The breath was too strong; her body softened, her legs unable to stand steadily.

But Xuan Yan’s arms were strong, supporting her waist.

After quite some time, Xuan Yan finally slightly released Su Muyao.

His eyes were burning and dark.

Just one kiss had his body taut to the extreme.

At this moment, his gaze was tender yet profound; he gently smoothed Su Muyao’s back to help her calm her breath.

Even through the beast skin, Su Muyao could feel the scorching warmth, akin to his fiery aura.

"Wife..."

Right now, his voice was deep, carrying an extreme restraint.

Only he knew how chaotic his heart had become, a madly overflowing undercurrent raging deep within him.

He had to use immense self-control to suppress it.

He lowered his head close to Su Muyao’s ear and said, "Wife, I think, the me with memory must love you to death."

Even without memory, he was like this, let alone the him with memory.

Su Muyao’s heart suddenly raced, feeling the breath by her ear was hot and chaotic.

His voice was low and rich, exceptionally pleasant, easily stirring one’s heart string.

"Wife, can there be such a reward every day."

Su Muyao felt his cautiousness, as if testingly inching closer to her.

Like a turtle slowly poking out from its shell.

Su Muyao thought about how sometimes his heart must be panicked without memory, couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

She tiptoed and kissed his lips voluntarily, "Anytime."

Xuan Yan was already restraining himself, unable to stand even a bit of teasing at this moment.

With Su Muyao taking the initiative, he felt himself losing his sanity.

But at the riverside here.

If a beastman came over, his shy wife would definitely be displeased.

Xuan Yan tried hard to breathe deeply, restraining himself repeatedly.

Just when he was passionately close to his wife, some light and shadow vaguely flashed in his mind.

It was an enchanting man in red, bowing wrapped around her.

That enchanting man in red looked exactly like him.

Is that the memory in his mind?

In the memory, he wrapped her very tightly.

Faintly, she seemed to be trembling and crying in his arms, saying something.

He mustn’t think further, Xuan Yan’s ears grew redder.

Seeing his disordered breathing, Su Muyao quickly pulled away from Xuan Yan, stepping out of his embrace.

She coughed a few times, "Well, spring is here, the willow trees have sprouted tender buds. We can collect some buds to make buns and dumplings."

At this moment, Su Muyao was thinking about food.

Watching Su Muyao’s bright brows and eyes, Xuan Yan chuckled softly.

"Anything."

Xuan Yan still remembered his first taste of dumplings, discovering how delicious they were.

It was a delicacy he had never tasted before.

Su Muyao knew that when Xuan Yan was Xuan Che or even Shen Jinsuo, he was not very interested in food. As a Blood Clan Beastman, he preferred Blood Pills or beast blood.

His sense of taste for food was average.

But the current Xuan Yan was in his Firebird form, seemingly unrelated to the Blood Clan, not needing to consume Blood Pills or drink beast blood, he could eat normally and enjoy the taste of regular food.

That’s why Su Muyao liked making delicious food for him.

Especially since the wheat was brought back by Xuan Yan with the Hunting Team.

With wheat, they could make flour-based foods.

But there wasn’t much wheat, so they ate sparingly.

However, after planting wheat, flour-based foods increased.

To save flour, Su Muyao usually mixed soybean powder with flour.

"You choose one."

Su Muyao lightly tugged at Xuan Yan’s sleeve, wanting him to express his preference.

Usually, Xuan Yan always seemed indifferent to everything, without much emotion.

Perhaps only just now did she sense a strong emotional fluctuation from him.

Xuan Yan softly said, "Dumplings."

He liked dumplings.

Additionally, the first food made by his wife that he tasted was dumplings.

So it was his favorite delicacy.

Su Muyao laughed and said, "Then we’ll make dumplings with willow buds."

Su Muyao excitedly went up to pick tender buds.

Xuan Yan was a bit puzzled, "Can you really eat this?"

"Of course, pick more, we can make dumplings."

"By the way, the ice has melted, let’s fish some fish from the river and make fishball soup, it’s very tasty."

Or we could roast fish to eat.

Throughout the snow season, the ice on the river was solid, Su Muyao hadn’t eaten fish for a long time.

Now most of the ice had melted, some remaining ice was just a thin layer, and Xuan Yan’s superpower could easily catch fish.

"Okay."

Xuan Yan used his superpower to quickly catch many fish from the river.

Su Muyao continued to pick willow buds.

Suddenly, while Su Muyao was picking willow buds on the tree, a shadow emerged from the other side of the river, swiftly attacking Su Muyao.

With chilling murderous intent.

Xuan Yan was controlling his superpower to catch more fish at that moment when the stabbing attack caught him off guard. Feeling the aura, he turned his head but it was too late, his expression changed drastically as he flew towards Su Muyao at the fastest speed.

Yet the opponent was faster; it seemed to be a Level 6 superpower, ready and prepared, Xuan Yan was completely out of time.

At that moment, a pressure suddenly descended, accompanied by an Ice Blade falling, directly stabbing the water monster.

A shrill scream echoed.

"Ah..."

It was a very strange sound.

Su Muyao looked down and saw the black water monster.

She hadn’t expected that Xiao Jihan, who was originally at home, was here at this moment.

Moreover, Xiao Jihan who just acted seemed to have a holy light radiating from his whole body.

Especially in the sunlight, showing more divinity.

Or was it her illusion?

"What is this thing?"

Why would it suddenly attack people?

Xuan Yan’s face was pale with fear at this moment.

Fortunately Xiao Jihan was here.

Xiao Jihan looked like he had surpassed Level 6 superpower strength.

Xiao Jihan’s expression was cold and stern, "This is a Demon Beast."
