Beauty and the Beasts: A Forbidden Love in a Mythical

Wan Ou wasn't willing to back down either and shouted back at him, "Digging like you guys are doing, we'll die of thirst before we're exhausted. You may be a superman, but they're not." She didn't have the ability to keep digging, but she could at least provide basic water. Moreover, she hated most those bosses who didn't know how to care for their subordinates.

"Do you think they're as frail as you?" Looking at this thin but stubborn woman, DuGu Lue's eyes were filled with thick sarcasm.

Not wanting to argue with him further, she stretched out her hand. In the green lotus leaf, the water rolled around like a huge dewdrop, exuding an alluring sweetness. "Do you want to drink it or not?" Her tone was also extremely unfriendly.

"Qi Xuan!" DuGu Lue didn't turn around and didn't reach out to take it either. "Distribute it to the brothers. After drinking, except for the guards on duty, everyone take a one-hour rest on the spot."

After saying that, he carried her and turned into another fork in the path. Qi Xuan and the others knew very well that their prince had been irritated by this seemingly delicate but stubborn woman and was angry. What would happen next...

The labyrinth, which was like a spider web, had another hidden world. She had just secretly come to the fork, but DuGu Lue seemed to be able to read minds. With his green eyes, he saw through where she had been at a glance. She suddenly remembered what Qian Zihe had said: DuGu Lue was predatory by nature, and he had an excellent memory and an innate tracking ability. If you have nothing better to do and provoke him, if he finds out you've played tricks on him, with his strong sense of revenge, he'll gnaw you until there's not even a bone left...

Before she could marvel at what an excellent devil he was, he had already carried her into a place that resembled a royal hall.

Despite its magnificent appearance, there were Buddhist items such as Bodhisattva statues placed here. However, the water in the pure water cup had dried up, the eternal lamps had been extinguished, and the incense on the incense burner had long since turned to ashes. On the seemingly calm hall, the 气息 of despair was evident everywhere.

This was also an underground palace, but it didn't have the luxury and fashion of DuGu's mausoleum.

DuGu Lue coldly surveyed the place with his arms crossed. He watched as Wan Ou diligently filled the pure water cup with water, lit the incense, and kindled the lamps, and then knelt down piously.

Her mother was a devout Buddhist, and Wan Ou had been influenced by it since childhood. She also had a deep faith in Buddhism in her life and work. After her soul had traveled to this ancient country, this was the first time she formally paid homage to the Buddha. She hoped that her parents could soon get out of the grief of losing their daughter and that her younger brother could succeed in his career. She... also hoped...

"Do you think worshipping them can save you?" DuGu Lue's tone was cold and cruel, making her shiver involuntarily.

She knew that he could do things that were intolerable to both heaven and earth and angered both gods and men. But what did it have to do with him that she was worshipping the Buddha? She hoped that the Buddha would bless her parents with good health and a long life and her younger brother with success in his career. She... also hoped...

"DuGu Lue, what's wrong with you this time?" Wan Ou screamed as he roughly pulled her up. She still had something to say. If the Buddha couldn't hear her, how could she convey her wishes to them?

There was a bloodthirsty glint in his green eyes. "You're actually thinking of another man? Is he your first man?"

Wan Ou looked at him in bewilderment at his words that were like a cold curse. He always made her suffer, and she could also make him angry. "Yes, my first man had a great body, was good in bed, and was gentle and considerate..."
