My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"Yu... Yu..." Seeing the elegantly dressed man in Hanfu before me, I almost believed he was an illusion created by Demon Qi, my lips trembling as I barely managed to call out his name.

When I was certain he was the one, I plunged into his arms, my entire being shifting from one extreme to another, cooing in a hoarse voice, "Husband, with you here, I don't want to die."

"What did you call me?" Yu Longting's fingers tenderly touched the spot where the nail pierced my forehead, gently stroking a few times, trying to alleviate the pain as he slowly pulled it out.

I groaned in pain, but my heart was filled with joy, "Husband, husband, husband... did you install a tracking sensor in me? You arrived just in time."

At that moment, this form of address seemed to connect with a distant time and space.

Long ago, I seem to have called someone else the same way, relying on them just as I do now.

"Have monsters struck you dumb? You're wearing a cheongsam embroidered with my true body, isn't that better than your so-called tracking sensor?" Yu Longting's tone was light and playful by my ear. I sniffed and couldn't help but look up, expecting to see his irreverent face.

At that moment, his face was clouded with dark clouds, carrying a sweeping demonic charm.

Those captivating dark eyes were terrifying, far more than any devil, as he stared at the pale-faced woman rowing the boat.

The pale-faced woman was bound tightly by Black Snake, unable to move. "Snake Lord, are you this woman's…"

With a casual wave of his long arm, Yu Longting coldly twisted the woman's neck.

What was even more shocking was that his arm plunged into the woman's chest, pulling out a weasel that was flailing wildly.

Then Yu Longting plunged his hand into the woman's skull, pulling out another weasel.

The two weasels, held in Yu Longting's hand, had their bones crushed, squealing in agony.

"Is... is it two weasels, controlling the corpse... creating this…?" I was clearly terrified by Yu Longting's bloody methods, yet I held him tighter.

"Hundreds of years ago, I beat them so their cultivation was set back; they couldn't transform into humans, and could only use these lowly tricks." Yu Longting chuckled lightly and slowly increased the pressure in his palm, torturing the two barely alive weasels, which screamed in excruciating pain.

Yu Longting observed my frightened eyes, full of danger, as if he minded, "Do you think your husband is scary?"

"It is a bit scary." I earnestly nodded, but involuntarily leaned my head against his chest, murmuring, "I might be a bit twisted, but I think you like this... look particularly imposing, even if it seems you've frightened... the girl."

The head of the corpse used by the weasels rolled from the bamboo raft, bobbing aimlessly in the river water.

It seems that the weasels had scooped out everything inside the skull, making it unusually light enough to float on the water surface.

The headless female corpse lay on the raft, her body also hollowed out completely.

Bai Zanhe was so frightened that she slumped in a corner of the raft, trembling all over.

"What is it to me what others think?" Yu Longting's eyes, filled with malevolence, glanced at Bai Zanhe.

Already terrified, Bai Zanhe shook even more violently, "You… what are you going to do…"

"You look too terrifying, tone it down a bit, please help take out the nails from her wrists too." My heart was uneasy, fearing he would say it was none of my business.

Fortunately, Yu Longting never refused my requests.

He walked over calmly, removed the nails from Bai Zanhe's wrists, and then turned to reproach me, "Why did you suddenly run to Western Hunan?"

"Uh… that's because…"

My inner voice complained it was all because his treasury door was left open, causing all this trouble, but I didn't want to start a fight and ruin the relationship. I wrapped my arms around his neck, "Hey, Yu Longting, do you think I look good in this bridal gown? It's my first time wearing a bridal gown in my life."
