Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 323: Chapter 315: Essence Blood

Shen Tang quickly reacted. The Merfolk possess extremely powerful spiritual attack power, capable of directly attacking a person’s soul!

At worst, it can cause someone to fall into a coma, and at worst, it can shatter the soul!

Fortunately, Shen Tang’s spiritual power is also not weak, so at most, Jia Lan could make her fall into a coma but is unlikely to directly destroy her soul, which is considered picking up a life.

The system’s five-minute crash was definitely when the berserk state Jia Lan woke up.

He took the opportunity to control her.

The wounds on her body were also bitten by him... Really! Brutal!

Shen Tang recalled the scene she encountered last time in the Sea Country, and she still shuddered with fear. Without wasting time thinking, she quickly got up to look for Jia Lan, only to find him tied to the bed, still unconscious and not awake.

Xue Yinzhou saw Shen Tang wanting to go over, his snake tail wrapped around her, pulling her into his arms, using a dry and wet wipe to carefully clean the blood on her neck and chest, and said in a low voice, ”Don’t go over there, it’s dangerous.”

Lu Xiao also said, ”Prince Jia Lan has not woken up yet, and the situation is still unclear. Female Master, you’d better not get close to him.”

Shen Tang looked worried and nodded, asking the system in her mind, ”Didn’t I use a sealing talisman on Jia Lan? Why is he still losing control?”

The system replied, [The sealing talisman’s power has not failed, but it seems that the host’s blood has a strong attraction to Jia Lan. Last night, after tasting your blood, it accidentally triggered the power within him.]

[But the host doesn’t need to be too nervous. The sealing talisman’s power still exists, and Shen Li added another layer of seal. The blood of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox possesses special mysterious powers, and his superpower happens to counter Jia Lan’s, indirectly enhancing the sealing talisman’s power... At least for half a year, Jia Lan won’t lose control again.]

Only then did Shen Tang feel slightly relieved.

Soon, Jia Lan woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he found himself locked on the bed, unable to move... He didn’t know who did it, but fortunately, that person had a bit of conscience, put clothes on him, and didn’t let him ”die of social embarrassment” on the spot.

Shen Li and the others came over, staring straight at him, their gazes not very innocent.

Jia Lan’s handsome face flushed red, and he yelled angrily, ”You! What do you want to do with me? Let me go, quickly!”

He didn’t know what had happened this morning.

The beast husbands heard this familiar arrogant tone and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He finally returned!

However, the force within Jia Lan remains a ticking time bomb. They’ve been married for so long, and it can’t be said to just drive him away. It wouldn’t be good for Jia Lan’s reputation either.

Lu Xiao looked at him with a complex expression, his lips tightly pressed, and said gravely, ”Little Prince, for the sake of the Female Master’s safety, we will install surveillance in your room. From now on, don’t be alone with the Female Master.”

”What?” Jia Lan was stunned, even forgetting to struggle.

A stabbing pain suddenly hit his head, and he recalled the dream he had last night, the fragmented memories in his mind.

After a few minutes, he came back to his senses, his peach-blossom eyes reddened, looking at Shen Tang, his voice trembling, ”I, I hurt you again, didn’t I?”

It wasn’t a question but a confirmation.

Jia Lan wasn’t stupid. Shen Tang and the others intentionally hid it from him, but he remembered what happened last time in the Sea Country, feeling bitterly aware inside.

Actually, Jia Lan had vaguely sensed that mysterious power within him long ago. After adulthood, this power grew stronger, even wanting to seize control of his body.

But he didn’t expect that last night, he would lose control and hurt her again.

The incident weighed heavily on everyone’s hearts. Later, Shen Tang still refused Lu Xiao’s proposal to install surveillance in Jia Lan’s room. She learned from the system that Jia Lan would not lose control again for at least half a year. Besides, it was not Jia Lan’s fault in the first place. There was no need to control him as if he were a prisoner, which would be an insult to a proud prince of the Sea Clan, an unnecessary humiliation.

But since that day, Jia Lan consciously or unconsciously avoided Shen Tang, never mentioning sharing a room with her again.

Even if Shen Tang took the initiative to find him, he was unwilling.

Jia Lan sadly said, ”Tangtang, I don’t want to hurt you. Otherwise... you should divorce me!”

He didn’t know how much determination he used to utter this sentence.

He would leave her and return to the Sea Country. Then the two of them would never meet again, and he wouldn’t bring her any harm.

”What nonsense are you saying!” Shen Tang hugged Jia Lan, stroking his hair, and comforted, ”It’s okay, the power inside you is under control and won’t relapse. I won’t let anything happen to you!”

Shen Tang remembered Jia Lan’s father, namely the High Priest of the Sea Country, Lunus, once said that her spiritual power could control this power. If she could return to S-level spiritual power, she could help Jia Lan completely get rid of this power’s control.

Unfortunately, on the system’s personal information page, Shen Tang’s spiritual power remained at 50%.

She realized that only with the first mating with a male does the increase in spiritual power have the most effect.

Now, she had completed the mating task with five beast husbands, and her spiritual power hadn’t increased much.

The time until Jia Lan’s internal power completely collapsed was more than half a year away. It seemed like a long time, but without the recovery of spiritual power, it was destined to be a dead end.

Shen Tang anxiously asked the system, ”Is there any way to quickly improve spiritual power?”

The system lazily replied, [Host, I’ve told you before, the most effective and simplest way to improve spiritual power is to find a talented male to mate with. The stronger the male talent, the faster the spiritual power recovery!]

Unfortunately, the host has always been too lazy to find another.

It couldn’t help either.

Shen Tang didn’t want to attract more admirers. The five at home were already enough trouble, with dealing with them leaving her exhausted and sore. She couldn’t imagine having more. The household would be utterly chaotic with so few advocates among so many.

”Try another way. Is there any other method?”

The system replied, [The most conventional way to restore or enhance spiritual power is to use Crystal Stones rich in spiritual power abilities. However, these Crystal Stones are too rare, and Shen Li once gave you one. The host can send people to search at auction houses across various Empires. Perhaps you might find some.]

Shen Tang secretly noted it down, but the Spiritual Power Crystal Stone is too rare. Even if sold at auction, collecting enough would likely be extremely time-consuming, and she wasn’t sure if half a year would be enough.

The system suddenly thought of something, slapped its forehead, and said excitedly, [Right, Host, I just remembered there’s a middle-ground option! But this method has never been used before. I also just thought of it.]

”Stop beating around the bush and just say it already!”

[It’s Beastman Essence Blood!] The system explained, [Each beastman will only condense one essence blood in their lifetime. This essence blood is stored in the closest spot to the Crystal Core within the heart, containing the beastman’s powerful abilities. If you can get the essence blood, the energy it returns to the host can also help the host recover spiritual power, with effects equivalent to the first mating!]

Saying this, the system chuckled, awaiting praise, [As it turns out, it was serendipitous. When you saved Yun Han in the hospital, he was stabbed directly in the heart, which was a severe wound, and full of blood. I happened to find that essence blood and thought, since the person was dead, it wouldn’t be useful, so I seized the opportunity to store it in the system warehouse for gene data research!]

[Considering our friendship, Host, I’ll give you a discount, selling it to you for a thousand points!]

Shen Tang’s forehead twitched, ”You dared to seize the spoils without my consent and still have the audacity to sell it to me? I’ll report you right now.”

The host’s privilege to report the system, if it involves a violation, would result in the system being re-engineered from scratch.

[Spare me, Host, I’ll give you the item right away!] The greedy system, hearing the threat, didn’t dare to be money-minded any longer, and quickly took out the essence blood from the system warehouse, honestly handing it over.
