Chapter 264: Chapter 266: A Vicious Scheme

Youdu Mountain, Upper Domain.

"Take this. Your Heart Vein will recover quickly," Gu Wanyi said, taking out an elixir and handing it to Hua Jinxin.

Hua Jinxin took the elixir and popped it into her mouth, complaining resentfully, "Mother, Brother Feng actually hit me for that ugly female! You have to tell Uncle Fu Yao."

’Tell Fu Yao?’

"Jinxin, that’s foolish. Telling Fu Yao will only push Fu Feng closer to him and let that female from the Lower Domain benefit."

’This foolish child doesn’t understand the situation at all. If Fu Yao had truly wanted Fu Feng to form a Contract Totem with her, he wouldn’t have let Fu Feng just walk away back then.’

’Clearly, the Dragon Sparrow Clan isn’t that eager for a marriage alliance with our Xuan Bird Clan.’

’If we tell Fu Yao about this, he might just use it as an excuse to call off the marriage with our Xuan Bird Clan.’

"But I can’t stand just letting Brother Feng be with that lowly female."

"If they have a cub, there’ll be no place for me at all," Hua Jinxin said, dissatisfied.

"Silly child, there’s more than one way to get Fu Feng to be with you."

At this, Hua Jinxin looked toward Gu Wanyi. "Mother, do you have a plan?"

With a pinch of her slender fingers, a ball of golden ghost fire instantly ignited in Gu Wanyi’s palm, and a golden sheet of talisman paper materialized in her hand.

"Find a way to dissolve this into talismanic water and make that female drink it. She will never be able to conceive again."

’No matter how much Fu Yao lets Fu Feng run wild, he surely can’t accept having no grandchild, can he?’

’Especially from his only descendant!’

"Once that female is unable to bear children, Fu Feng will naturally give up on her."

"All Beastmen are the same. Once a female can’t bear cubs, they see her as useless and turn to another’s embrace," Gu Wanyi said ominously, holding the talisman paper.

’Beastmen form contracts with females to bear cubs. What use is an infertile female?’

Hearing this, Hua Jinxin’s anger instantly melted into a smile. She threw her arms around Gu Wanyi and said happily, "You’re the smartest, Mother! But I’ve already shown my hand. It’ll be difficult to get close to Su Luoluo again."

"You’ve already earned Fu Feng’s disgust, so you can’t be the one to act. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t someone who can do this for you."

"Someone can do it for me? Who? Should we have Ah Nu go?" Hua Jinxin asked, confused, looking at the handmaiden to the side.

"Of course not. Ah Nu is one of our Hu Family. If she does anything, suspicion will fall on us. It’s far better to have someone from the Lower Domain handle it."

"Someone from the Lower Domain? Who are you talking about, Mother?"

Gu Wanyi smiled faintly. "That Lan Ya would be perfect."

"Lan Ya? Isn’t she Su Luoluo’s mother? Why would a mother harm her own child?"

Her own mother was very good to her, so Hua Jinxin couldn’t understand how any mother could harm her own child.

"Nothing is impossible in this world. Just as some people love their children, some naturally do not."

"In a few days, just you wait for the good news."

As she spoke, Gu Wanyi performed a Summoning Technique. A shimmering black portal appeared before them, and she handed the talisman to a Priest, saying, "My apologies for the trouble. I’m leaving this matter in your hands, Great Witch."

"Rest assured, my lady. I will see this matter handled perfectly."

...

As Su Luoluo lay in bed, she felt a persistent unease, as if something was about to happen.

But after taking a deep breath, she calmed down again.

She shook her head. ’Maybe I’ve just been too busy lately, and that’s why my heart is beating so fast.’

She tried to calm her racing heart and prepared to get up to look for some plant-based dyes.

She had promised Fu Feng she would make him a few new outfits, so Su Luoluo decided to head out.

She changed her clothes, but just as she was about to leave, a rapid and piercing BEEPING sound rang in her mind.

[Ding! System Alert: Someone is plotting to render the Host infertile. Please take precautions.]

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Luoluo was overjoyed. "System, you’re finally back! I haven’t heard from you in so long. Where have you been...?"

Having not heard the System’s voice for so long, Su Luoluo had a million questions she wanted to ask.

However, after issuing the warning, the System fell silent once more.

Su Luoluo’s brow furrowed instantly as she asked the most critical question, "System, at least tell me who it is!"

But the System’s only reply was silence.

This sudden, ghost-like warning made Su Luoluo suspect something was definitely wrong with the System, but since she couldn’t contact it, she had no choice but to let it go.

’Make me lose the ability to have children?’

’Besides Su Nuannuan, who else could hate me this much?’

Su Luoluo couldn’t make sense of it.

’Is it possible she’s not completely dead?’

At this thought, Su Luoluo put aside her plan to find dyes and headed for Su Yang’s house instead.

Ever since Hong Shuang left, Su Zhao had been a wreck, like a ghost of his former self.

’I never realized he was so devoted.’

’It was as if his very soul had been torn away when Hong Shuang left.’

He had spent the last several days searching for Hong Shuang, and Su Luoluo wanted to go ask him about the situation.

However, she had barely stepped one foot inside when a straw sandal came flying out. Su Luoluo quickly lashed out with a vine to smack it aside.

The moment the sandal landed, Lan Ya glared at her, her eyes filled with malice and her words dripping with venom. "What are you doing here? You’re not welcome!"

’If it weren’t for Su Luoluo telling Su Zhao to go there, my relationship with my son wouldn’t have become this strained.’

’These past few days, whenever she tried to speak a single word to Su Zhao, he would ignore her completely, calling her vicious and cruel—the executioner who killed Hong Shuang.’

’That wicked female is dead, so what? What’s there to miss?’

’Lan Ya couldn’t understand why Su Zhao was so hung up on this matter with her.’

’As the leader’s son, he could have any female he wanted. Why did he have to be so fixated on a liar? She tried to persuade him to let go, but every day he either cursed at her or threw things.’

’After causing such a mess, Su Luoluo still had the nerve to show her face. Lan Ya’s dissatisfaction with the person before her instantly grew.’

Lan Ya had never been kind to her. Su Luoluo paid her crazed fit no mind and walked straight inside.

She saw Su Zhao’s listless expression and was about to speak when Bai Meng, who was beside him, shook his head at her.

Seeing this, Su Luoluo pulled her gaze away from Su Zhao and turned to Bai Meng. "How has he been lately? Has Hong..."

Before she could finish, Bai Meng grabbed her hand and gestured toward the outside.

Su Luoluo understood and nodded, following Bai Meng outside.

The female’s hand was warm, soft, and smooth. Bai Meng had only touched Su Luoluo in his urgency, but he never expected her hand to feel so different.

He blinked, watching the hand she had pulled back, and his heart skipped a beat.

When Fu Feng saw Su Luoluo leave with Bai Meng, his lips tightened, and he followed them.

’Last time, she was telling them to stick to the night-watch schedule, and now she’s sneaking around behind their backs in the blink of an eye.’

’He’d see about exposing Su Luoluo’s two-faced nature and making her give him an explanation.’

’That damn tiger. You couldn’t let your guard down for a single moment, or he’d seize the opportunity to seduce Su Luoluo.’
