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

Chapter 402: Chapter 394: Fish, Mission Accomplished!

During Shen Tang’s two days on the spaceship, listening to Uncle Qiu Yang’s occasional ramblings, she finally understood why the Nine-tailed Fox clan valued pure bloodlines so much.

It turns out that only the offspring of two pure-blooded Nine-tailed Foxes can be ”Nine-tailed” Foxes.

If one of the parents is from another race, the offspring might be an Eight-tailed or a Seven-tailed Fox, or even worse, a Six-tailed or a tailless defective one, unable to awaken the Destructive Fire, reduced to a Mortal Beast.

Qiu Yang’s mother had an affair with a Wild Fox Guard, resulting in his birth as a mixed-blood Eight-tailed Fox Beast, a disgraceful and illegitimate child, considered a family shame, expelled from the family, left to fend for himself.

The late Emperor took pity on him and took him as a subordinate, treating him with immense kindness.

Since then, Qiu Yang has devoted himself loyally to the Royal Family.

He knows the plight of mixed-blood Nine-tailed Foxes, which is truly a fall from heaven to the depths of hell, and he would never allow the Young Emperor to have such a child either.

Upon learning this, Shen Tang found Shen Li’s choice understandable; any normal person would do the same.

When Xiao Jin and Jia Lan heard the news of Shen Tang’s return, they were already waiting early in the square.

The spaceship landed.

As soon as Shen Tang stepped out of the cabin door, she was pulled into a broad, warm embrace. Xiao Jin leaned down and gave her a firm kiss on the cheek, ”You’re finally back. I’ve missed you so much these days that I couldn’t eat or sleep. Look! Haven’t I lost weight?”

Shen Tang chuckled lightly, ”I haven’t been gone that long, have I?”

Jia Lan didn’t expect the leopard to beat him to it. He let out a light hum and turned to look at the spaceship.

He saw Xue Yinzhou coming out with a middle-aged Beastman.

He paused in confusion, ”Who is this person?”

Soon, Jia Lan’s expression changed drastically; it turned out to be a Tenth Rank Beastman, and a tremendous sense of crisis abruptly rose within him... But, isn’t this male beast a bit old?

Jia Lan, stunned, turned to look at Shen Tang and muttered, ”Do you like older ones now?”

His voice carried a tremble of disbelief!

Shen Tang rolled her eyes in exasperation, itching to knock on his fish head, wondering what he was thinking all day, ”This person is an underling of Emperor Yiyuan and the mastermind behind the assassination ordered on me. The Emperor handed him over to me for disposal, so I brought him back as a slave for redemption.”

Jia Lan’s eyes turned red with anxiety, ”Were you hurt at all? Let me see.”

”Don’t worry, I can still protect myself, and if injured, I can heal!” Shen Tang sighed lightly, ”Also, I’ve uncovered the situation with Emperor Yiyuan. Shen Li is actually Ji Jiuli. The incident on the volcano was orchestrated by him and his men to fake his death and escape in order to steal the Earth Core...”

She clarified the entire sequence of events.

Xiao Jin and Jia Lan were initially shocked, then filled with righteous indignation, yearning to rush over and beat that cunning fox!

Such despicable and shameless deeds! He truly deserves a thousand cuts!

Fortunately, Shen Tang’s emotions remained stable, unaffected; otherwise, their hearts would have ached infinitely.

As for the Earth Core, Shen Li doesn’t want to relinquish it, but there’s no other way. The power disparity between the Night Glow Empire and the Yiyuan Empire is vast. If they truly went to war, they would be at a disadvantage. So, this matter can only be put on hold for now.

And so, the issue was put to rest.

After dinner, Shen Tang called Jia Lan aside, ”Come to my room tonight.”

Jia Lan’s cold, refined face blushed slightly, gazing at her affectionately, peach blossom eyes full of expectation.

Upon hearing these words, Xiao Jin was displeased!

He protested, ”This fish has thin arms and legs; how is that any good? Why didn’t you come to sleep with me the first night back? Don’t you miss me? I’m definitely better at making you...”

Shen Tang’s face turned red, quickly covering the mouth of this cheeky leopard, fearing he might say something inappropriate!

”I’m talking about serious matters! My spiritual power has fully recovered. Tonight, I’m going to help Jia Lan soothe his inner Curse Power.” Calculating the time, this matter couldn’t be delayed any longer and had to be resolved quickly.

Although Xiao Jin enjoyed competing for favor, he knew how to prioritize when it came to serious matters.

Shen Tang’s recovery of her spiritual power made him equally elated, deciding to be generous for once!

In the deep of night, Jia Lan lay obediently on the bed, having already changed into a loose-fitting platinum-colored robe, his damp hair carrying the fresh scent of a bath. He hugged a pillow, gazing toward the bathroom door, listening as the sound of running water gradually diminished, and his heartbeat grew faster.

Soon, Shen Tang emerged from the bathroom, using a towel to dry her damp, long black hair. She was wearing a couple’s robe in a matching color to his, its loose tie revealing pale, smooth skin, and her slender white legs appeared remarkably striking in the light.

Jia Lan’s throat bobbed, his eyes smoldering.

Shen Tang flicked her hair, playfully sitting on his thigh, locking him under her with an assertive and domineering presence.

Her restless hand slipped into his chest, gradually undoing the robe as if unwrapping a beautiful gift.

”You mischievous woman, so eager,” Jia Lan muttered in dissatisfaction, but there was no resistance in his actions. One of his pale, graceful hands gently brushed through her damp hair, drawing out the moisture until it dried significantly.

His other elegant, slender hand rested against her waist, pulling her closer, skin to skin.

Jia Lan buried his head in Shen Tang’s neck, his soft hair brushing lightly against her cheek, his breathing turning slightly hurried, his voice muted, ”...Tangtang, what shall we do next?”

”It’s not much different from the previous spiritual soothing; just relax. I’ve got this. You only need to cooperate and enjoy...” Shen Tang kissed his ear lightly, nibbling playfully.

Soon, Jia Lan’s beautiful peach blossom eyes welled up with a moist mist, his face reddening, and the light sweat on his forehead gradually dampened his hair. The arm resting at her waist gripped tighter, veins protruding, leaving red marks.

This mischievous woman... fooled him again...

She promised!

”Good Ah Lan, look at me.” Shen Tang pinched his chin, teasingly provocative.

Her condition was no better than his, but Shen Tang just loved seeing him in such a shy, innocent state, it was great fun to tease him.

Jia Lan shyly turned his head away, not daring to meet her gaze.

He was male; how could he...always be played with like this by her?

If other males knew, how embarrassing would it be?

He didn’t want to be seen by her in an unseemly state.

Shen Tang let out a low chuckle deep in her throat, deliberately leaning in to kiss his Adam’s apple.

So adorable!

Couldn’t help but want to take a bite!

Jia Lan let out a muffled groan, almost on the verge of surrender; he was going to die on her!

The young man’s beautiful, moist eyes turned red as he buried his head in her embrace, too shy to look down, the soft gasps accompanying a sense of grievance, ”Tangtang, be gentle, give me some dignity...”

Shen Tang couldn’t hold back, letting out a snorted laugh, ”Looks like that cheeky leopard wasn’t wrong!” Her lips brushed against his flushed ear, ”You really can’t compare to him, huh?”

Jia Lan felt a rush of blood; this mischievous woman dared to say he couldn’t match up!

A hazy, pure white power transformed into strands, drifting in the air like a dense web, entwining around the bed, shrouding the beautiful scenery.

Jia Lan’s body emitted a lot of strange energy, which vanished upon contact with the pure white strands.

Jia Lan only felt the shackles that had troubled him for years gradually disappearing, leaving him indescribably relaxed and happy.

After Shen Tang finished cleansing the restless energy within him, she too was exhausted, yearning to fall asleep immediately.

But she knew it wasn’t over yet.

The Curse Power within Jia Lan ultimately stemmed from the pollution within the sea area.

As long as the pollution source remained, this polluted energy would eventually gather in his body, only temporarily extending his lifespan for a few years, addressing the symptoms but not the root cause.

He was still unable to escape the fate of being a container.

The system had previously reminded Shen Tang that the polluted energy could be sealed in the Infinite Box, though no one had successfully tried it yet, theoretically, it was feasible.

In addition, a container would be needed to replace Jia Lan.
