When a Blade of Grass Wants to Become Immortal

Chapter 158: Chapter 155: Coquettish Fox Girl x Cold-Faced Wolf King 5

”Wear it, because you are the Wolf Queen.”

His voice was deep, yet it carried with exceptional clarity in the open space.

Lang Xuan’s gaze was profound as he locked eyes with Ji Xiaosong. ”But I also know that you came to the Wolf Clan for the Red Sun Crystal Stone. If I let you wear this necklace, a symbol of the Wolf Queen, you’ll probably only think about leaving.”

The moment Ji Xiaosong heard this, she flew into a rage, leaping up to snatch the necklace from him.

She was agile, her fox tail instantly wrapping around Lang Xuan’s wrist. But before she could apply any force, an ice chain shot out from nowhere and clamped down on the tip of her tail.

Lang Xuan’s expression turned cold. In front of the entire clan, he pinned her down on the altar.

His canines extended slightly, gently piercing the skin of her neck. The scent of blood filled the air.

”Do you smell it? My scent is in your blood.”

Lang Xuan’s voice was tinged with a bewitching quality as he whispered in Ji Xiaosong’s ear.

Just then, as if drawn by some summons, the Red Sun Crystal Stone suddenly levitated between the two of them.

The Crystal Stone emitted a soft glow, reflecting the images of the sleeping Fox Clan within Ji Xiaosong’s space.

Lang Xuan’s breathing quickened slightly, mingling with the faint scent of blood. ”To break the Ice Curse, the Crystal Stone must accept a master. And it only submits to the wife of the Beast God.”

With that, he forcefully clasped Ji Xiaosong’s hand and pressed it onto the Crystal Stone.

In an instant, the Crystal Stone erupted with a light so intense one couldn’t open their eyes.

Ji Xiaosong felt a wave of dizziness, and her fox ears popped out uncontrollably from her hair.

Lang Xuan lowered his head slightly and, in front of his thousands of subjects, gently kissed the tip of her trembling ear.

”Now, the entire Beast World knows you are the female I have marked. So, don’t even think about running. Tonight, when we go back, I’ll teach you the rules of the Wolf Clan properly.”

Lang Xuan’s voice was deep and powerful, each word landing like a heavy hammer blow on Ji Xiaosong’s heart.

Hearing this, Ji Xiaosong’s heart sank to the depths.

’With an unpredictable man like Lang Xuan around, how am I supposed to become the Beast God’s wife?’

’Besides, my mission in this life is to target Lang Xuan’s father.’

’I’d long since decided I wouldn’t go looking for any Beast God.’

’Wait, no! That’s not right!’

Ji Xiaosong’s head snapped toward Lang Xuan, her eyes instantly brightening.

’Although I haven’t spent much time with Lang Xuan, I know his personality well enough to be sure he would never allow me to become another man’s wife.’

’Combined with his astonishingly immense power, could it be that the so-called Beast God is Lang Xuan himself?’

’However, I’ll have to wait until we’re back in Lang Xuan’s cave to find a chance to ask him about this suspicion.’

At this moment, the members of the Wolf Clan, still thinking Lang Xuan and Ji Xiaosong were performing some special ritual, were all shouting and cheering excitedly.

The wolf cubs even formed a circle around them, dancing joyfully. The atmosphere was incredibly lively.

Ji Xiaosong’s cheeks were burning as she glared at Lang Xuan, a mixture of shame and anger in her eyes.

But Lang Xuan wore a faint, knowing smile, his eyes filled with the delight of a plan come to fruition.

He held Ji Xiaosong’s hand tightly while his other hand gently stroked her fox ear, his thumb rubbing softly against the delicate fur.

Ji Xiaosong trembled and instinctively tried to pull away, but Lang Xuan only held her tighter.

Lang Xuan leaned close to her ear, his voice low and bewitching. ”Don’t move, little fox.”

Then, he gave her earlobe a gentle nip, drawing a soft gasp from Ji Xiaosong.

The cheers from the crowd grew louder, and the wolf cubs danced more merrily, their tails wagging excitedly without pause.

Ji Xiaosong’s heart pounded like thunder. She had never imagined she would have such an intimate encounter with Lang Xuan in public.

’But then I remembered this is the Beast World, where many customs and rules are different from other worlds. Perhaps such intimate actions are perfectly normal to them.’

Even if she understood it, that didn’t mean she could fully accept it.

Ji Xiaosong blushed and whispered, ”Y-you... let me go.”

But Lang Xuan was unmoved. He gently lifted Ji Xiaosong’s chin, making her meet his gaze.

Their eyes met, and Ji Xiaosong felt as if Lang Xuan’s eyes held the endless cosmos.

Lang Xuan slowly leaned in, his lips brushing hers in a light peck.

It was a kiss as light as a dragonfly skimming the water, but it left Ji Xiaosong’s mind completely blank.

Her eyes went wide as she stared at Lang Xuan, who was just inches away. It felt as if the entire world had frozen in that moment.

Seeing her expression, Lang Xuan couldn’t help but let out a soft laugh, a sound that Ji Xiaosong found utterly captivating.

At that moment, the light from the Red Sun Crystal Stone grew even more dazzling, enveloping the two of them.

Lang Xuan kissed Ji Xiaosong’s lips again. This time, he didn’t stop at a mere taste, but kissed her with a possessive and profound passion, taking all she had to give.

Ji Xiaosong’s hands unconsciously wrapped around his neck, returning his kiss.

After what felt like an eternity, Lang Xuan reluctantly released Ji Xiaosong. He rested his forehead against hers, his breathing still ragged.

The wolf cubs around them were still cheering wildly, but Lang Xuan paid them no mind.

He swept Ji Xiaosong up into his arms and, amidst the boisterous cheers of the crowd, strode toward his cave.

As soon as they entered the cave, Lang Xuan gently placed Ji Xiaosong on a soft animal hide.

The cave was filled with the faint scent of pine. A dim, yellow light flickered, illuminating their slightly flushed faces.

Ji Xiaosong sat there awkwardly, her hands unconsciously fiddling with the hem of her clothes.

Lang Xuan sat down beside her, stretched out a long arm, and pulled her into his embrace.

His fingers gently tucked a strand of hair behind Ji Xiaosong’s ear. His voice was low and gentle. ”Little fox, from this day forward, you are completely and utterly mine.”

Ji Xiaosong blushed and scoffed lightly. ”Who wants to be yours? I haven’t agreed to anything yet.”

Despite her words, she didn’t push Lang Xuan away.

Lang Xuan chuckled softly and planted a kiss on the crown of her head. He then moved slowly downward, kissing her eyelids and the tip of her nose.

His kisses tickled, and Ji Xiaosong couldn’t help but squirm slightly.

Lang Xuan’s hand moved to her back, patting it soothingly. ”Don’t move. Let me get a good look at you.”

His gaze made Ji Xiaosong’s cheeks burn, so she simply closed her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Lang Xuan’s eyes filled with adoration.

His fingers slowly traced down her cheek, finally stopping to gently caress her lips.

Ji Xiaosong felt her heart beat even more furiously, as if it were about to leap out of her throat.

”The Fox Clan will be fine. I’ve simply placed them under my protection. The Tiger Clan has had its eye on your territory, the Scorching Flame Western Desert, and has been wanting to seize it. Bound by the rules of the Beast World, they resorted to this method. Once a clan is wiped out, another can take its place.”

Lang Xuan had rolled over, pinning Ji Xiaosong beneath him. He had spoken in that low, reassuring voice because he knew what she was worried about tonight.

”How do you know?” Ji Xiaosong asked, confused.

”Of course I know. On this continent, nothing escapes my sight,” Lang Xuan replied, full of confidence.

”You just said that for the Red Sun Crystal Stone to accept a master, the prerequisite is to become the wife of the Beast God. You’re not... you’re not the Beast God, are you?”

Ji Xiaosong stared into Lang Xuan’s eyes and asked seriously.

Lang Xuan’s body stiffened for a moment before he relaxed back to how he was before.

”What do you think?” he retorted.

”I think you might just be that Beast God we’ve never seen. Leaving aside how you saw through my identity the moment we met, the power you’ve displayed since then isn’t something a normal king should have. No other clan has Spells this powerful,” Ji Xiaosong analyzed seriously.

”You little liar, I really can’t hide anything from you,” Lang Xuan said with a laugh.

”Then who are you, really? You said you’ve waited three hundred years for me, but I can’t for the life of me remember when I ever wronged you.”

Ji Xiaosong was getting angry. ’Can’t Lang Xuan just talk to me properly?’

’I hate dealing with people who can’t communicate, who make you guess everything.’

’Aren’t we husband and wife now? Shouldn’t we be honest and communicate with each other?’

Lang Xuan just watched Ji Xiaosong quietly, saying nothing.

”Can’t you just speak plainly? Why do you have to make me guess all the time? If I could guess, I wouldn’t have failed to recognize you in the first place, would I?” Ji Xiaosong couldn’t help but complain.
