My Demon Husband Is a Snake

A cold and charming voice floated from Xuanjing's sinister lips, "Worthy of being the woman I chose, perfectly compatible with my son."

Kissed... kissed Bai Zanhe...

This scoundrel Xuanjing, driven by lust, actually dared to violate an innocent girl right in front of me.

"Yu Longting, lend me your sword, I'm going to chop him down." I couldn't just stand by and watch Bai Zanhe being bullied like that, I took the sword from Yu Longting's hands.

The moment I gripped the sword hilt, the sharp blade was instantly wrapped in a Qi force imbued with Demon-Breaking Power. As I raised it to strike, it emitted an exulted phoenix cry and directly charged towards Xuanjing's face.

Xuanjing glanced sideways from the corner of his eyes and finally let go of Bai Zanhe's arm.

With a cold flick of his sleeve, out flew a silver fox with nine tails.

The Silver Fox, upon encountering the Demon-Breaking Power, shook violently and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Its turquoise eyes remained firmly fixed on the point of the sword, like two burning Nether Flames, not giving way to me at all.

Good heavens, this guy Xuanjing was actually using his life-bound spirit to confront my Demon-Breaking Power, which is specifically potent against demons and evil.

The hit he just took must have caused serious injury; it would take him centuries to recover.

"Hiss—" My whole arm went numb, and jolted back half a step, fortunately, Yu Longting's palm supported my lower back.

Otherwise, with the momentum, I would have staggered back several more steps and fallen into the river for sure.

Yu Longting's palm was filled with profound Spiritual Power, which passed into my body through my waist as he shouted, "Calm your heart, pay attention to nothing else, and circulate the Small Heavenly Cycle within your Qi Sea."

"But..." I hadn't yet voiced my concern for Bai Zanhe when Yu Longting wrapped his arms tightly around my body, his deep voice carrying an inexplicable sadness and tenderness, "Wanwan, I, beg, you."

My heart sank as I followed Yu Longting's instructions and circulated the Spiritual Energy.

He is the most important person to me; once he speaks, I can only unconsciously choose him.

"My stomach... my stomach hurts so much... what did you do to me?" Bai Zanhe clutched her belly, writhing in pain, "You didn't plant a demon fetus inside me, did you? I don't... I don't want... don't want to bear your demon fetus..."

"Woman, you have two months to think about it."

Xuanjing wrapped his arms around Bai Zanhe's waist again, deepening the forced kiss on the girl that carried a note of plunder, "If you still don't wish to be the mother of my child, I'll find someone else, but for these two months, you must obediently serve as the vessel for my offspring, understood?"

"I don't understand, I still... I'm still a virgin, why should I bear a demon fetus for you, get it out." Bai Zanhe mustered all her strength to struggle, desperately pushing Xuanjing away, tears flooding her wan and gaunt cheeks, "Otherwise... I won't be kind to it..."

"Do you dare? Just obediently carry the demon fetus, and in exchange for two months, you'll have a lifetime of peace, you're making a profit." Xuanjing's lips traced the tear tracks down Bai Zanhe's cheeks, slowly moving to her cheek, nose, and eyes, "Your grandfather isn't dead, I saved him. Don't you know what you should do now?"

With a splash, Xuanjing jumped into the turbulent river waters that, without a lantern's illumination, always churned with countless whirlpools.

Xuanjing's body transformed into a nimble and lightweight White Fox, quickly being drawn into the depths of the river by the whirlpool.

The injured White Fox spirit, became a streak of light diving into the water, following its true body.

Above the river, the color of fresh blood spread through the currents.

It was blood, Xuanjing's blood.

My attack must've left his life-bound spirit with only half of its strength remaining.

"Wife, shall I chase after him and slay him?" Yu Longting asked in a low voice, "Strike while he is weak."

Bai Zanhe spread her arms, blocking the riverbank, "He didn't really commit any evil deeds, so... let's just let it be, there's no need to press for total annihilation."
