My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"Going without it would look even better." Yu Longting sized me up, his eyebrows slightly raised as he spoke.

"..." The corner of my mouth twitched instantly, wondering where that Evil Corpse Nail had pierced just now.

It clearly had lodged itself into Yu Longting's brain!

Seeing my dark expression, Yu Longting tossed the two weasels, which he had squeezed nearly to death, onto the raft, scooped me up in his arms, and leapt ashore. "What's wrong? Did I say something incorrect?"

From his sleeve, two Black Snakes slid out soundlessly.

They wrapped around the weasels like lightning, their venomous fangs biting into the creatures to prolong their torment.

"No, no, you're absolutely right, haha."

In my heart, I had already beaten Yu Longting a hundred times over.

Yet, being in the wrong myself, I dared not make any disrespectful movements.

The act of burning my Life Lamp to take the weasel down with me must have deeply hurt Yu Longting. I nestled against him like a docile little rabbit. "I'd like to visit Barbarian Village, they say the relentless rain is because Lord Dragon King... is lacking a bride..."

"Now is not the time," Yu Longting said, carrying my drenched self towards a tea pavilion not far off.

Inside the pavilion sat two Taoists who had survived a fight with crows, wounded.

On our arrival, they stiffened with wariness.

Yu Longting seemed as if he hadn't noticed them, setting me down on a long bench and ordering coldly, "Fetch a dry towel."

The old man fanning himself by the tea stove had a flicker in his eyes.

He stood up to flee outside, as if Yu Longting and I were bandits.

In a blink, Yu Longting was in front of the old man, ruthlessly twisting off his head.

There was a crisp "snap" of breaking neck bones.

The two Taoists tensed, gripping the soft swords on the table tightly.

Only when two purple-black weasels burst out from the old man's head and body,

did the weasels, scared out of their wits, fall to the ground kowtowing incessantly, "Snake Lord... spare our lives... "

"Still thinking of running?" Yu Longting asked from above.

The oppressive aura of a superior being poured forth like a landslide, causing the weasels' foreheads to break open. "No more running, we'll fetch the towel right now," they said.

"Wow, you're so mighty," I said, looking up at him with adoration, transforming into a little fangirl.

The sudden snapping of the old man's neck had frightened me so much that my heart nearly stopped.

After all, that old man had hidden his Demon Qi so deeply that I had always thought he was just a regular person. It wasn't until the weasels ran out that I realized this was another body possessed by spirits.

"Give me your hand." Yu Longting dropped the head he was holding, ignoring my flattery, and commanded darkly.

I hid my hands behind me, "I won't."

"Su Wan, if you want to see me go on a killing spree, continue defying me," Yu Longting said with a sinister smile, gripping my chin and slightly tilting it up, his gaze fierce.

I refused to believe he would hurt those close to him just because he was angry with me, and asked defiantly, "Who... who do you plan to kill if you go on a killing spree?"

"Wipe out the entire weasel clan," Yu Longting declared, pausing after each word.

You're ruthless!!

Despite my newfound dislike for weasels after today's events,

exterminating their entire clan feels... too extreme...

I shrunk my neck and offered my hand, trembling, "Um, I've obediently given you my hand to check my pulse, can you please not be harsh to me?"

My Life Lamp had been burned, and previously I was backfired by the heavenly fire, so my current physical condition was a little bit subpar.

Ever since I met Yu Longting, he had always been easy to manage, and I never saw such a dark and terrifying side to him.

No matter how sweetly I spoke, it had no effect at all.

In response to my plea, Yu Longting remained silent, quietly grasping my pulse, his expression growing ever darker, longer than a donkey's face.

"You scare me when you look like that. Aren't you going to... forgive me?" I panicked completely, eyes reddening.

Suddenly, I was pulled tightly into an embrace, my shoulders firmly pressed by the man's chin, as if he were holding a fragile, once lost but now retrieved treasure.
