Chapter 1020 - 1006: Self-Reproach

These two words, spoken by Xie Guixue, had a tone with warmth, unlike the previously cold demeanor.

Hoarse, tender, even carrying a hint of a tremble.

His ice-blue eyes shimmered with a gentle, watery hue, and at their corners was a blush-like hue.

Such an expression made Su Muyao’s heart string tremble uncontrollably when they met eyes.

"What’s wrong? Is your body still uncomfortable?"

Su Muyao went to touch his forehead.

Feeling his body was indeed a bit warmer.

Xie Guixue felt the warmth on his forehead, carefully observing Su Muyao, momentarily believing reality.

Also confusedly thinking it was his dream.

Countless times before, he chased her blurry silhouette in dreams, feeling extremely empty upon waking.

That feeling was too painful.

Xie Guixue gently held Su Muyao’s hand in his palm, bringing it to his lips for a soft kiss.

Feeling that long-lost sweet fragrance.

Then he got up, gently pulling her to him, flipping her onto the bed, and instinctively kissing her.

As if only this way, he could feel her presence.

Moreover, the emotional silk returning made Xie Guixue’s emotions even more fervent.

The feelings in his heart were too intense, instinctively wanting to be close to her.

Passionate feelings, uncontrolled.

Even filled with guilt and regret, wanting to make up to her all at once.

His icy-blue eyes were dyed with emotional crimson, breathing slightly chaotic, as though suppressing something.

Emotions within his body erupting like magma.

"Mmm..."

Before Su Muyao could react, Xie Guixue began to undress her.

Holding her entirely.

Su Muyao gently groaned.

Previously, Xie Guixue was never this hurried, always cold and reserved.

The first contract was still led by her; he was initially very shy.

In the previous dream-like past, she deliberately seduced him, wondering when he became like this.

His pheromones were extremely intense, a dark fragrance stirring her buried affection for him.

Making her hazily respond to him.

Soon, Su Muyao’s beautiful eyes became moist and radiant, so captivating that one couldn’t resist adoring her more.

Xie Guixue’s gaze grew deeper, his breath traveled from her lips to her ears then to her neck.

Su Muyao’s breathing was very erratic, feeling very different from Xie Guixue now.

"Gui Xue, you... what’s wrong?"

"How is your body feeling?"

Su Muyao instinctively reached for his arm but found his temperature was scorching.

Previously, his body temperature was always cold, even at normal levels, it was lower than the typical beastman, never like this.

Moreover, his arm muscles were tense.

At this time, the system spoke: "Host, he’s naturally growing emotional silk again, plus the previous silk merged within him, his feelings for you erupted intensely, desiring you greatly."

"It’s the male beastman instinct."

Su Muyao missed him too, worried about him, unwilling to refuse him.

But when Xie Guixue’s hand rested on her waist, sensing something, his body shivered intensely, ice-blue eyes trembling, "Wife, you..."

Xie Guixue’s fingers trembled, unbelievably touched Su Muyao’s belly lightly.

His eyes reddened further, seemingly about to bleed.

Su Muyao saw his gaze was on her belly and spoke, "Did you feel it?"

Xie Guixue raspingly replied, "Yes, it’s bloodline sensing."

"Very intense bloodline sensing."

"It’s our Zaizai."

He felt Zaizai’s bloodline talent was even stronger than his own.

And that strong life force.

Su Muyao smiled, "Yes, it’s the Pure Blood Dark Beast Zaizai."

Su Muyao liked Zaizai, her features carried a tender expression.

Her whole presence had a sacred radiance.

Xie Guixue now felt reality, murmuring, "It’s not a dream."

"Of course, it’s not a dream, it’s real, if you pinch me, you’ll know."

He initially thought it was still a dream, unreal.

Su Muyao couldn’t help but feel heartache for him.

Xie Guixue softly said, "How could I bear to hurt you."

Pinch her, he couldn’t bear to.

Yet, bloodline sensing was real, he truly felt it, knowing it wasn’t a dream.

He dared not exert himself now, fearing he couldn’t control the strength, even afraid to hug Su Muyao.

Indeed, Xie Guixue lacked experience.

Xie Guixue softly said, "In Demon Realm history, only Pure Blood Dark male beastmen with Pure Blood Dark females may have the chance to bear Pure Blood Dark Beast Zaizai, most are not Pure Blood Dark Beast."

If foreign, it’s a mix of Dark Bloodline.

This Dark Bloodline’s power is weaker.

His bloodline was strong, successfully transforming into a Pure Blood Dark Beast.

Yet female beastmen bearing Dark Beast Zaizai would be very tough.

"Is wife feeling unwell anywhere?"

Su Muyao shook her head, "Not at all, I’m fine, when I arrived at the Demon Palace, no one dared trouble me."

"It’s Zaizai’s strong bloodline aiding me."

Su Muyao gazed at Xie Guixue, "You wouldn’t want me to leave now, would you?"

"We have Zaizai, you mustn’t shirk responsibility."

Su Muyao felt Xie Guixue’s concern for her and didn’t want him to evade.

Even cultivating the Heartless Path, extracting emotional silk, it grew again, proving his feelings for her.

Even if he wasn’t great at expressing, she no longer doubted.

Listening to this, Xie Guixue returned to his senses, his cold brows bore blush, self-reproachfully and painfully saying, "I’m sorry, I was wrong before."

"I won’t let you leave again."

"I returned to the Demon Realm, cultivated the Heartless Path nearly erasing our bond."

As Xie Guixue spoke, recalling cultivating the Heartless Path, waves of fear washed over him.

He dared not imagine if Heartless Path reached great success.

Thinking this, Xie Guixue’s body gently trembled.

Face extremely pale.

"Mmm..."

Unable to hold back, he coughed up blood from his mouth.

This startled Su Muyao, "What’s wrong with you?"

"How come you’re coughing blood, is your body still suffering Heartless Path’s backlash?"

"I just sealed it, merged emotional silk within your body, the silk was previously hurt, needing time for complete healing..."

Su Muyao explained the situation a bit.

Xie Guixue wiped the blood at his lips, "No problem, just feeling sad."

"Did I trouble you, make you suffer and sad?"

As Nalan Gui Xue, he forgot her, didn’t protect her in danger.

Returning to the Demon Realm, he cultivated the Heartless Path.

He was deeply afraid.

Thankfully, despite elders forcibly extracting emotional silk, it instinctively sought her.

Emotional silk was in her hands.
