My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"Wrapping around my wife, do you find it particularly enjoyable, do you think it's a great pleasure?" Yu Longting's eyes held flecks of icy chill, that terrifying pressure made him seem like a deity, effortlessly suffocating others.

The red serpent, swelling with two bumps on its head, had bloodthirsty glints in its equally crimson eyes. Astonishingly, it spoke the language of humans, "Snake Lord, you must release me tonight, or else, I'll drag your woman down with me in death... you... don't go too far... What kind of ability is it to enslave your own kind with the Snake Lord's pressure? You're such a useless Snake Lord, marrying a human..."

It seemed to be dominated by some uncontrollable force, as its cool body coiled around my legs began to twist and struggle.

I was tightly entwined, my legs losing blood circulation, while a surge of Yin energy from the serpent's body invaded mine, causing my entire leg to become numb and excruciatingly painful.

Unable to control myself like a kite with a snapped string, I fell to the ground.

However, I made sure that not a single part of the girl touched the ground, firmly protecting her in my arms, and also shielding my own stomach from injury.

"Submit."

Every word from Yu Longting was deliberate, and as the resonance of these two words fell, the scales from the serpent's body began to flake off inch by inch, its body covered in bloody wounds where the scales had been forcibly removed, then gradually the snake began to peel away from me.

Like a blood-soaked rope, it lay messily soft on the ground.

A piece of yellow paper flew out of Yu Longting's sleeve and affixed itself to the serpent, a blue flame instantly igniting and consuming the snake's body.

It writhed and struggled like meat sizzling on a grill, the flames toasting it to a golden, crispy hue, and the air was filled with the scent of roasting snake flesh.

I witnessed a snake being roasted, and my entire legs went weak.

More terrifyingly, as it gave off a fragrant scent while still being able to speak, "Snake Lord, your heart is so cruel. I'd hardly managed to evolve into a python... why... why needlessly harm your own kind... I will not accept this..."

Yu Longting, watching the burning flames, clicked his tongue, "Still able to speak, it seems the heat isn't enough. I'll add a couple more spells for you, guaranteed to make both sides golden and crisp, enough to make the kids next door cry with envy."

Accordingly, two more talismans flew out from Yu Longting's sleeve.

As the charms landed on the blood-red serpent, the flames grew more intense and fierce.

In almost the blink of an eye, it was reduced to charcoal.

The burning scent was mixed with that of grease and was revoltingly foul.

Yet in my heart stirred a terrifying agitation, leading me to crave consuming the charred snake, despite my pregnancy making me lose my appetite and unable to eat anything, I strangely found myself wanting to eat a scorched snake...

What was happening?

At that moment, many patrons, drawn by the smell, gathered around to gawk at the serpentine char on the ground, all wearing faces of bewilderment, "Is this a snake that has been overcooked?"

"What kind of snake is this, to be so long?"

"How revolting, I feel nauseous. I can't eat anymore, I can't eat anymore, manager, what's going on today? I'm not eating, let's settle the bill."

The customers lost their appetites and started asking to pay their bills.

The cashier, Chen Decheng, was distressed and kindly offered everyone a fifty percent discount.

Terrified, I turned to Yu Longting, "Longting, I... I don't feel the same as them, I... actually find this scent appealing, I..."

Yu Longting didn't seem to expect me to say such a thing either, he turned his head down and his deep black eyes darkened.

Just then, Yu Rongling emerged from nowhere, "Brother, are you grilling snake meat here? What a disgusting smell?"
