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

Chapter 565: Chapter 531: Why Does He Love You So Much?

Lunus shook his head somewhat confusedly, ”I don’t know. Since Lan’er was born, he replaced me as the new carrier of the Curse Power.”

”Since then, I have never seen ’him’ again.”

”’He’ may have disappeared, may have been asleep, or perhaps... merged with me. These things are inherently mysterious and difficult to express, even I can’t explain clearly.”

”Xiao Tang, there’s something I must remind you, Lan’er’s talents far surpass mine, he might be the strongest of all time...”

Lunus was about to continue when a clear and pleasant voice suddenly came from the door, interrupting their conversation.

”Tangtang, what are you talking about with father? You’ve been talking for so long.”

The young man was quietly standing at the door, smiling brightly at the two inside the hall. No one knew when he appeared, as there wasn’t even the sound of a knock.

His slender, tall figure stood outside the door, not stepping even half a foot over the threshold. Though he was so near, he seemed somewhat distant, as if standing alone in another world.

”Mother has prepared a lavish welcome feast, waiting so long the dishes have gone cold, she told me to call you.” He smiled helplessly.

Shen Tang smiled, ”Alright, we’ll go there now!”

She looked apologetically at Lunus, ”Priest, do you want to eat first? We can talk after the meal.”

Lunus looked at the young man at the door, then drew back his gaze a beat late, his lips wore a loving and gentle smile, ”No need, the time has come, I must leave.”

He took a sea shell from his sleeve and handed it to her, ”This was created by a Divine Servant from the Divine Hall who is skilled in the Sound Transmission Technique. No matter where you are, or how far you are, you can communicate through this sea shell.”

”In the future... should you encounter any unsolvable problems, you can use it to contact me anytime.”

Shen Tang received the golden sea shell. It was only palm-sized, with intricate and exquisite patterns, the tail end had a small hole carved into it with runes containing superpower fluctuations, giving it a miraculous and mysterious feel.

Beastmen generally use Light Computers to communicate, but Light Computers have regional restrictions, mostly usable only domestically or with allied nations, and once blacklisted by enemy nations, they cannot be used.

This communication device, created by superpower, is usually not blocked by any signals—unless the other side has a special superpower specifically targeting the Sound Transmission Technique. The communication sea shell is limited to conversations between both parties, with no worry of network eavesdropping, making it overall quite practical.

After Lunus bid farewell to Jialouluo, he returned to the Divine Hall.

Twenty years passed, and the two tacitly refrained from mentioning old matters, which could be considered an end to their past grievances.

Jialouluo personally accompanied him for a while, watching the direction he left in—with a trace of emptiness in her heart.

However, having reached middle age, she no longer held the arrogant aloofness she had in her youth. Especially after enduring this calamity, she lived more thoroughly, understood the world has many things you cannot force, and letting go is actually a form of completion.

At least, she has a beautiful and obedient son.

Thinking of such an excellent successor, Jialouluo did not dwell on melancholy for long, soon putting the matter aside, and personally arranging the ceremony with the Ritual Officer.

After dining with Jia Lan, Shen Tang also went back to rest.

Initially, the Sea Clan’s situation settled, Shen Tang feared Xiao Jin and the others would worry for too long, intending to return as soon as possible.

But this short day felt as lengthy as half a century, her mental strength was exhausted to the extreme, so she decided to rest well for one night in the Sea Country Palace.

She already sent messages to Lu Xiao and the others reassuring them of her safety, informing them the Sea Clan’s situation was determined, and she would return in the morning.

As Jia Lan’s partner, Shen Tang naturally did not need another room arranged, staying in the luxurious palace he once resided in.

Glazed tiles for the roof, jade for the walls, the sleeping chamber hung with pearl curtains made from strings of precious coral gemstones, and the giant shell bed covered with soft silk bedding.

After bathing, Shen Tang changed into a pure white nightdress.

The nightdress was made from silk unique to the Sea Clan, soft and form-fitting, very comfortable to wear.

She lay on the soft, big bed, her dark long hair scattered, curling a slender, fair leg, her gown slightly sliding down to just cover her thigh root.

The freshly bathed woman’s cheeks were rosy, her black, moist cat eyes sparkled with alluring charm, her eyelashes appeared to hang with dewy droplets, exuding a lazy and enchanting aura.

Jia Lan emerged from the bath to see this scene.

His Adam’s apple bobbed, as he gazed at the sexy and beautiful female on the bed, his eyes dimmed.

Shen Tang lazily rolled over, lying on her stomach on the bed, turned to look at Jia Lan walking out of the bathroom, sweetly calling, ”Ah Lan~”

The young man also changed into the same colored robe, his physique slender and tall. The silk robe draped smoothly from wide shoulders, accentuating a sculpted-perfect form.

The robe hung loosely on him, with a belt languidly tied at the waist, the neckline slightly open, cold white skin slightly dazzling under the light. His delicate collarbone undulating like a mountain stream, instantly attracting the gaze, making one unable to resist leaving marks there.

Such as: soft lip prints, shallow red marks, biting tooth imprints...

Shen Tang suddenly felt parched, reaching out to him sweetly calling, ”Ah Lan, hold me!”

Jia Lan sat on the bed and pulled her into his embrace, discreetly tidying her somewhat disheveled collar, pulling the hem of her gown down a bit, ”It’s so late and you haven’t slept yet?”

”Naturally, I was waiting for you, without you how could I bear to sleep.”

Shen Tang noticed nothing unusual, raising her hand to hook around his long neck, nestling to his waist, a hand tracing circles on his chest with a hint of tease, ”Can’t sleep without you... don’t you want to do something else?”

Going from tense to relaxed, emotions need an outlet. Shen Tang very much wanted him now!

If in normal times, Jia Lan would have long turned red at the ears, that shy and desirous look pleasing to a female heart!

The young man’s face slightly stiffened.

When the female’s restless hand moved slowly from his chest down to his belly, attempting to linger in a dangerous area, his Adam’s apple moved sharply, eyes dark as water, his voice slightly hoarse and helpless, ”Tangtang, I’m a little tired today, we’ll do it another day.”

Shen Tang withdrew her hand in time, although feeling regret, she felt sorry as she kissed him gently on the lips, ”Alright! Today did tire you out badly, then let’s sleep first!”

Jia Lan embraced her, lying down, his long arm circling her waist, gently stroking her midnight hair.

As he smelled the fragrance from her, a trace of confusion and desire passed through his eyes, a purple-red glow flashed at the bottom of his eyes, but he forcibly suppressed it, appearing no different from usual.

Jia Lan lowered his head, placing a kiss on her forehead, softly saying, ”Good night Tangtang, sweet dreams.”

”Mmm, good night.”

Shen Tang gently hugged the man’s firm waist, snuggling into his arms, inhaling the familiar scent.

Perhaps because today was so intense, drowsiness came like a tidal wave. It wasn’t long before she fell into a deep sleep in his embrace.

Jia Lan seemed to have no drowsiness at all, his long fingers gently combing through her slightly messy black hair, silently gazing at her sweet sleeping face.

Fingertips slowly moved up, grazing her fair, delicate cheeks, and those red flower-like lips.

The sleeping little female seemed to sense it, unconsciously rubbing against his palm, whispering softly, ”Ah Lan...”

”Hold me...”

”Cold...”

Indeed, Shen Tang felt a slight chill in her dream, unconsciously curling tighter in the man’s embrace, almost hugging him tightly, wishing their bones and blood would merge, transmitting her warm body heat to him, melting him.

Jia Lan also sensed the soft, tempting body of the female in his arms, separated only by two thin layers of fabric, heating his body temperature like a fire.

The young man squeezed his eyes shut firmly, suppressing a certain strange impulse within.

When he opened his eyes again, his long hand slowly moved down, gently resting on her neck.

His fingertips grew sharp, showing a beastified form.

A mermaid’s claws are the sharpest weapons in the deep sea, can cut iron like mud, and easily tear flesh.

The female’s neck is so white and slender, seemingly fragile enough to snap with a squeeze.

The young man’s gaze grew deeper, devoid of daytime’s warmth and love, only boundless coldness remained.

”Tangtang...”

He chuckled softly, whispering, ”I used to be very curious why he was so infatuated with you?”
