My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"If there is a family conflict, it must be communicated and resolved, not just concealed or dealt with violently; that treats only the symptoms, not the root cause."

This was the first time in my life that I had been so shameless. I slowly walked over to Yu Longting, tugged at his sleeve, and looked up at him obediently, "Ouch, why are you biting people!!"

Suddenly, a pain shot through the back of my hand. I was actually grabbed by Qing Li, who was sitting on the chair, and she bit me hard. Her voice was filled with endless hatred, "Your father killed Longting, causing him to lose all his cultivation. He was nearly asleep forever... trapped in a cheongsam, what right do you have... with him... "

"Get out!" Yu Longting yelled explosively, flinging his sleeve fiercely.

Qing Li's Primordial Spirit was shocked and swept out of Snake Cave by the fierce wind, disappearing from sight, her fate unknown.

I instantly panicked and started jumping on the spot, "Where did you send her, you didn't kill her, did you? Yu Longting, if you dare to kill her, I will never let you go... Do you hear me?"

"You don't even look at what state you are in yourself, yet you still run off worrying about the life and death of others." Yu Longting picked me up and sat me down on the edge of a stone platform, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at my bleeding wrist.

With a plop, tears of my panic fell onto his wrist, shattering.

Yu Longting's senses reeled, and looking up to see my tear-stained face, he finally softened his expression, which was scarier than a door god, and started clumsily wiping my tears, "I just sent her back to the Lin Family Loft, to keep her from causing trouble. I didn't lay a finger on her. Don't cry, wife. How could I dare defy you secretly, doing the opposite of what you allow?"

"Really? As long as you didn't hurt her, that's good. You scared me to death. You should have said so earlier, oh my... it hurts so much... Yu Longting, it hurts!! I need to rest!!" I was too anxious earlier, and the bitten wound had gone numb, only now feeling the pain.

Don't be fooled by Qing Li's extremism, her maternal instincts were also completely agitated by my dad's actions, just now using the Forbidden Woman Witchcraft to grow fangs.

She bit through my wrist, even puncturing the bone.

I was in so much pain that everything turned dark and light in front of my eyes.

Yu Longting became even more flustered, blowing air on my wound and then kissing my lips tenderly, "Look at you, now you feel the pain. You were still blindly defending her earlier."

As he kissed my lips, he helped treat my wound.

He sprinkled some strange herbs on the wound, and the pain was instantly less intense.

But having hurt the bone, there was still an impact.

My whole arm still trembled uncontrollably, and I leaned weakly against Yu Longting, "I defended her not only because she is your relative. Qing Li attacked me to avenge you; what she did... wasn't wrong. Your behavior is ungrateful, just quibbling!"

"Right or wrong has nothing to do with me. So what if I am ungrateful? Wanwan, is this your first day knowing me? I was never a good person, in this vast world I only care about you. If even the King of Heaven dares to touch you, I would slaughter him just the same."

These unprincipled and bold words from Yu Longting would seem inappropriate to anyone with a sound set of values.

But all I felt in my heart was fullness, deeply moved. Even if he were a Demon Head whose evils knew no bounds, I would still stick with him, besides he was not that.

He had always been the benevolent Snake Lord, just prone to extremes concerning matters involving me.

I felt it was my duty to guide him onto the righteous path.

I blew on my wrist that I had bandaged, hooked my arms around his neck, and hung on him like a pendant, "Yu Longting, let's consider it... giving me a chance. I'll try to improve my standing with your mother, make her like me, huh? And also..."
