Chapter 889 - 875: A Familiar Embrace

The system listened to Su Muyao and said, "I also feel like this place should be an Oasis, the environment must be very good, making it very suitable for the Green Snake Beastmen to live in, hence they chose this as the Royal City."

"But now it’s all a desert here, not sure what’s going on."

"I feel the climate here is too strange, and oddly, those snake creatures cannot enter inside."

Everything is filled with unknown secrets.

"If not for Wen Nanxi’s mark on you, I wouldn’t have encouraged you to come here."

"Feels like this place is very dangerous."

"Especially the environment in the desert, the most dangerous."

Many dangers are hidden within the sandstorm, making it hard to see clearly.

Su Muyao could also vaguely sense the aura of danger, it was a kind of instinctive feeling.

She spoke, "Even if there is danger, I must come."

Only because Wen Nanxi is here.

Su Muyao continued to walk toward the direction of the sensing.

The sandstorm raged, blowing uncomfortably against the body, accompanied by the scorching sun, making Su Muyao feel drowsy.

But she still forced herself to stay awake.

Fortunately, Xuan Che gave her the Space Bracelet, containing some supplies and water that she could take out to use.

As she walked further in, more Snake Beastman sculptures appeared, but many relics were also buried by the sandstorm.

"This place must have been extremely splendid before."

Just looking at the sculptures buried by the sand, one can peek into the past.

Su Muyao always felt there should be stories here.

After walking for a few more days, Su Muyao, in her weariness, seemed to hear the sound of camel bells and the "hiss" of snakes in her daze.

She looked up in the direction of the sound, and her peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a green stretch at the meeting point of the desert and sky in the distance.

Su Muyao’s eyelashes trembled, she could hardly believe it, "Oa... Oasis!"

And it was not a small oasis, but a vast one, almost endless.

So lively and lush.

Su Muyao couldn’t help but run towards the direction of the oasis.

She was tired before, but seeing the oasis, she suddenly felt energized.

The system was somewhat incredulous, "Host, such a vast oasis, wasn’t seen before, suddenly appearing in the scorching desert, doesn’t seem right."

Moreover, above the oasis were numerous well-arranged sculptures and buildings, evidently of a Divine Hall’s style, more grandiose than any depiction Su Muyao had seen in the Witch Clan Ancient Books.

The white jade-carved columns stood tall and straight, entwined by delicate Snake Beastman sculptures, which were lifelike, almost real.

Moreover, these sculptures seemed within reach, reflecting warm soft light in the sunshine, seemingly flowing with fine spiritual power.

Unlike the previously damaged sculptures in the desert, eroded and buried by the sandstorm.

On the heights of the oasis was a floating-like platform, akin to the aerial garden described in the Witch Clan’s Ancient Books.

Although Su Muyao was extremely excited, the system’s words also made her calm down.

She stopped and looked towards that way.

Feeling like the vast oasis was both real and illusory.

She could clearly see the lakes and plants, smell the fragrance of flowers, and hear the murmuring of clear creeks.

"Sna... Snake Beastman!"

She even saw many Snake Beastmen in the oasis, wearing extremely luxurious and noble clothing, adorned with golden and silver threads.

Unlike the current environment of the Beast World, as though civilization had suddenly been cut off.

The scene within the oasis kept changing, suddenly a lavish carriage appeared at a giant city gate.

The carriage was pulled by elephants, with Snake Beastman guards walking protectively at both sides, a splendid ethereal man seated above the hollow carriage.

He was dressed in an extremely luxurious attire, wearing a crown, veiled face, revealing only a pair of picturesque green eyes.

Like hazy smoke and rain, apricot blossoms in spring rain.

Beautiful enough to make hearts palpitate.

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Snake King."

On the street, everyone kneeled and cheered.

Su Muyao, however, seemed to enter a meditative state, staring at him through the sandstorm.

That pair of eyes, and his stature resembling Wen Nanxi.

Even with his face covered, she felt sure it was Wen Nanxi.

Can’t be wrong.

At this moment, the Snake King on the throne in the oasis seemed to sense something, and looked towards this side.

Looking straight in Su Muyao’s direction.

Su Muyao seemed to gaze at him through time and space, feeling a strong heartache.

Also feeling like she could cry.

...

At this time, in a hidden oasis within the desert.

Wen Nanxi was soaking in the green lake.

The injuries on his body were severe, the energy and warmth in the lake soothing his wounds.

While he was unconscious for many days, suddenly he felt heart palpitations, waking with a start.

"Cough..."

Wen Nanxi opened his eyes, uncontrollably spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Wi... Wife, Ayao..."

Wen Nanxi’s voice was hoarse and ethereal, carrying an extremely broken tune.

In his voice seemed to lie a deeply rooted longing.

He gently wiped the blood stain from the corner of his mouth, silently murmuring, "Going crazy."

Thinking about Ayao drives him mad.

He was able to maintain a bit of sanity thanks to the memories of the past supporting him.

Just now, he felt as if he saw his wife.

"It must be another illusion."

Since coming here, he’s already experienced countless illusions.

He truly feels like he’s going insane.

Moreover, after his soul body fused as a complete Ancient Celestial Snake Beastman, the estrus period became even more unbearable.

"Wife, Ayao..."

He longed for her so much, unconsciously murmuring.

His breath quickened, his mind filled only with Su Muyao’s image, her warm and soft aura.

Just by thinking of her, he couldn’t help but crave for more.

In the green lake, Wen Nanxi suppressed his breathing, uncertain whether the pain was triggered by longing, or if it exacerbated his estrus period once again.

He could only rely on his imagination in illusions, repeatedly tracing the shape of his wife.

This was the site of an abandoned relic within Snake King City.

He was able to find this place through the sensing of the Ancient Celestial Snake, how could his wife appear here.

"What’s more, this is the world where the Divine Domain collapsed."

His wife is outside.

When Wen Nanxi couldn’t bear it, he still couldn’t help but place his hand near his heart.

There lay Su Muyao’s mark, the emblem of the Immortal Phoenix.

Every time he touched it, he could feel a trace of his wife’s aura.

But just as he touched it this time, his face suddenly changed.

"How can it be?"

He couldn’t believe it at all.

His hand began to tremble.

But even if he couldn’t believe it, Wen Nanxi carefully tried to feel.

Immediately after, he leaped out of the lake, disappearing from the spot like a whirlwind.

...

At this moment, Su Muyao was in a trance, enchanted by the gaze of the Snake King in the oasis, inching closer inward continuously.

She was about to step inside.

And then, at that instant, she heard a voice.

"Ayao, don’t!"

Following that, she was swept into a familiar embrace by a gentle wind.
