Chapter 890 - 876: Incarnation of Consciousness

Su Muyao was tightly, tightly embraced in someone’s arms.

She was also enveloped in a faint, pleasant scent.

This scent was so strong that with a slight whiff, Su Muyao could tell it was Wen Nanxi’s embrace.

Hearing his intense heartbeat and suppressed breathing, Su Muyao almost cried.

It was her Wen Nanxi.

She wanted to get up to see his face, but at that moment she was held too tightly.

He held her so tightly, her head pressed against his chest, unable to lift her head to look.

As she gently moved, he held her tighter.

"Nanxi, is it you?"

Su Muyao softly spoke.

As she spoke, her voice trembled, and tears uncontrollably streamed out.

At this moment, she didn’t know if Jing Chu was still there or if Jing Chu’s consciousness had been erased.

That time when the Ascension Road suddenly opened, Wen Nanxi merged and disappeared.

But she had interacted with Jing Chu before and knew that although Jing Chu’s appearance was the same as Wen Nanxi’s, his temperament and aura were different.

This aura belonged to Wen Nanxi.

She could discern clearly.

"Wife, Ayao, it’s me..."

Wen Nanxi almost whispered these words at Su Muyao’s ear, his lips lightly brushing her ear, bringing a slight tickle.

His voice was gentle yet trembled.

His arms that held her shook as well.

It seemed he was afraid of something.

"Ayao, it’s true, isn’t it? You’ve really come to my side."

Wen Nanxi’s voice had a tremor at this moment.

"Am I not dreaming?"

Even feeling the tenderness in his arms, Wen Nanxi thought it was an illusion.

Listening to these words, Su Muyao felt a pang in her nose, and a painful heaviness in her heart.

"It’s me, not a dream, not an illusion, it’s real."

She was pressed tightly in Wen Nanxi’s embrace, barely able to move.

She didn’t struggle much, only lightly bit his chest with her teeth.

She couldn’t bear to use force.

"Ah..."

Wen Nanxi gasped, feeling a slight twinge of pain, clearing his muddled mind a bit.

Only then did he slightly release the person in his arms, still enfolding her, afraid she might escape.

Su Muyao was now able to lift her head and look at Wen Nanxi. Upon meeting his tearful eyes, Su Muyao saw the pain and unease within them.

Seeing the once poised and elegant Wen Nanxi now so thin and broken, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

She couldn’t help but gently touch his brows and cheeks, tears uncontrollably falling drop by drop.

"How did you become so thin?"

Even his jawline was quite sharp.

Wen Nanxi felt a sharp ache in his heart; he couldn’t bear to see her tears.

Her tears fell drop by drop, seemingly burning his heart and causing severe pain.

"It’s okay, just lost a little weight."

Despite his serious physical state, Wen Nanxi didn’t want Su Muyao to worry.

So he didn’t say much.

He just carefully, gently wiped away her tears.

But Su Muyao’s tears wouldn’t stop, and he sighed lightly, lowered his head, and tenderly kissed away her tears.

Bit by bit, full of affectionate care and endless longing.

Just touching her skin, Wen Nanxi’s suppressed longing surged like waves.

His beast nature clamored to break free and powerfully possess her.

But Wen Nanxi restrained it with his remaining rationality.

His Ayao had finally come to his side; he couldn’t do that.

Plus, the backlash of beast power was too intense, added by the mating season, he would hurt her.

He subdued it with reason, his throat lightly rolling.

Su Muyao was enveloped in Wen Nanxi’s intense aura, her lashes trembled gently like butterfly wings.

Unknowingly, just the movement of her lashes provoked his inner agitation and passion.

What to do?

"Ayao..."

Wen Nanxi did nothing extra but softly called her to relieve the agitation.

His chest heaved violently.

Severely suppressing.

But her sweet scent lingered at his nose, and he was nearly losing control.

Su Muyao looked at his increasingly reddening eyes, the formerly gentle eyes becoming more exotic.

"Nanxi, are you uncomfortable?"

"You’re so hot."

Su Muyao hadn’t thought much at this moment, just immersed in the excitement of seeing Wen Nanxi.

Just looking at him felt never enough.

Wen Nanxi knew what he wanted to do; soon he might lose sanity.

Can’t stay here.

"It’s okay, let’s leave here first."

Su Muyao turned to look at the oasis, finding the caravan had disappeared, and the oasis instantly vanished.

As if Wen Nanxi’s arrival disrupted the peace, the oasis disappeared.

Very strange.

"Was it a mirage?"

Wen Nanxi’s expression was solemn, "Not a mirage."

"It was a remnant of the Snake God’s obsession, a power that will recreate the scene of the Snake King City in the desert."

"But once inside, one will be consumed by the power within."

"This obsession is dark and dangerous."

"Don’t meet the gaze of the Snake King inside, you’ll be bewitched."

Thankfully, he arrived in time.

Su Muyao felt she was bewitched earlier.

"But I felt that Snake King’s figure and gaze were identical to yours."

It was also because of this she was bewitched.

Wen Nanxi’s eyes like poetic rain brushed a dark shade.

"What’s going on?"

Su Muyao blinked her curious eyes at Wen Nanxi, anticipating his explanation.

Looking into her eyes like that, Wen Nanxi’s heart softened entirely.

"Legend has it, when Snake King City was glorious, the Snake King, also the High Priest of Snake King City, was in fact the Snake God’s consciousness incarnate in the mortal world."

Hearing this, Su Muyao’s eyes lit up.

"Does it mean that after becoming a god, one can also transform into mortal form and live in the Beast World?"

Wen Nanxi looking at Su Muyao’s bright eyes, knew what she was thinking.

He softly said, "In strict terms, it’s possible."

"But according to Beast World’s Beast God legend, only this Snake King is special, hiding some secret within, which I’m not aware of."

"But the Snake King, High Priest, and Snake God indeed have close relations, and their appearance should be identical."

This was some inherited memories he saw while unconscious here.

Although he’s not entirely sure.

Therefore, he dared not precisely give her hope.

This alone was enough to make Su Muyao delighted.

The system was also excited, "Host, this indicates that under certain circumstances, the Beast God can live in the mortal world, not always confined to the Divine Domain."

Su Muyao nodded.

The gaze of the Snake King in that oasis, though it bewitched her, she felt there was something hidden within.

She didn’t see it clearly.

"Does Snake King City truly no longer exist now?"

Wen Nanxi explained, "Yes, the Divine Domain collapsed, climate changed drastically, Snake King City vanished, no longer exists, only some ruins remain."

"Are those sculptures of Snake Beastmen included?"

Feeling like the sculptures of Snake Beastmen were lifelike.

Alive-like.

Wen Nanxi’s expression subtly changed, "They are Divine Servants, also attendants of the Snake King, transformed into sculptures due to some unknown power."

After arriving here, Wen Nanxi’s eyes could see through all this.
