Chapter 171 From a Mysterious Place

At this moment, the Xie family head was extremely anxious and worried, and was eager to take Xie Guixue back to find the elder of the Moon Clan.

But she still had to patiently stand there.

Su Muyao is the person Gui Xue loves, and he actually took the initiative to become her beast husband without telling her about it.

But as a mother, she naturally knew about her son's situation.

If it weren't for...

For so many years, she and her son have lived together, relying on each other for survival. Now, her son is acting so recklessly for a female beast, disregarding his mother. This makes her feel as if her son has been taken away, and she feels uncomfortable.

Thinking of how her father sacrificed himself to save her without hesitation, she felt a pain in her chest so intense that she could barely stand up straight.

Therefore, Gui Xue must not be harmed, even if it means letting her be a selfish villain.

She stood there with a frown, waiting for Su Muyao's answer.

Su Muyao's hand trembled slightly, causing the bracelet to move slightly. She said in a low, hoarse voice, "Thank you, Patriarch, this is too precious. I cannot accept it."

"However, I understand what Patriarch Xie said."

Although Su Muyao was upset, she did not lose her composure.

Especially in situations like this, she remained calm and clear-headed. Even if she was in love, she didn't want to compromise.

This is her principle: she will never compromise for anyone, even if she loves that person.

The Xie family head said, "This is for you. It's not an ordinary bracelet. It was given to me by Gui Xue's father. It's also a bracelet that their pure-blooded ice and snow spirit beasts have given to their sons and wives over the generations."

Fearing that Su Muyao would disagree, the Xie family head could only add more details, "The ice and snow spirit beasts do not belong here; they come from a very mysterious place."

"Their physique is also very special, like a phoenix. If they cannot be reborn from the ashes, they will perish."

"So they need to be treated carefully until they are truly fully recovered, reborn from the ashes, and their souls are completely stable, then there will be no more problems."

Upon hearing these words, Su Muyao's expression shifted. A mysterious place, reborn from the ashes—was it to undergo a tribulation?

The Xie family head paused for a moment, then added, "He is your beast husband. There is a Heavenly Law binding you. If you are in danger, he will be in danger, and I do not want anything to happen to him."

"Besides, he has a spiritual problem now, so you can't save him or help him right now."

She acknowledged that Su Muyao was her son's wife, but she did not approve of them being together; Gui Xue's safety was more important.

Moreover, if certain forces find out, it will bring danger to Su Muyao, and even to Gui Xue.

Once Su Muyao dies, Gui Xue's life will be tied to hers. Even if the connection is severed using a secret method, Gui Xue will still be injured, as his body cannot withstand any further disruption.

Since Patriarch Xie had already said so, Su Muyao naturally couldn't persist, nor was she that kind of person.

Even though she had many questions, she knew that in the eyes of the Xie family head, she had no right to ask or know.

So she didn't ask any more questions.

But she still wanted to persist, "I understand that Master Xie wants a letter of release from marriage."

"But Patriarch Xie, shouldn't we consult Gui Xue's opinion on this matter?"

They knelt and worshipped the Heavenly Dao together to complete the ceremony. Now, she has written this unilaterally, which is unfair to him. Moreover, their feelings for each other are genuine.

The Xie family head smiled faintly, seemingly disdainful of these words. "My son is very filial. He understands how much I have sacrificed for him. Everything I do is for his own good, and he will understand."

"Miss Su, if you have any conditions to make, please feel free to name them."

Su Muyao smiled. Why should she humiliate herself? She had done her best; things were beyond her control.

Soon, following the Xie family head's instructions, she directly wrote a letter of divorce and gave it to him.
But the moment she handed the divorce papers to the Xie family head, she felt a void in her heart.

The Xie family head breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the letter of release from marriage. She was relieved that the man was sensible. She softened her tone and said, "Good child, if you are destined to meet again, you will meet again."

With that, the Xie family head took the divorce papers and left.

Su Muyao ran out immediately and watched as the flying beast carried the sedan chair away into the air.

Su Muyao watched until the sedan chair disappeared before she looked away.

She knew that she was experiencing a surge of emotions, but she tried her best to suppress them and not let them show at all.

At this moment, Xie Yi walked up to Su Muyao and said, "Miss Su, please don't blame the patriarch. The patriarch has had a hard time too." "Back then, our patriarch was just a weak female beast. She was the third young lady of the family. Although she had the pure blood of the Xie family, she was not favored."

"Back then, the Third Miss was very naive. She never thought about vying for the position of family head. But just because she was a female beast, she was persecuted by her half-sisters, and her body was also poisoned."

"Later, when she was assassinated by her clansmen, she was saved by Young Master Ling's father, and they got together afterward."

"I don't know what happened in between. All I know is that a mysterious person appeared in the Xie family. That mysterious person told some people in the Xie family what Young Master Ling's true form was. So some people in the Xie family sent many experts to hunt down Young Master Ling and the Third Miss in order to obtain the Ice and Snow Spirit Beast."

"At the last moment, the Third Miss gave Young Master Ling a letter of divorce. At that time, it would have been no problem for Young Master Ling to escape on his own, but it would have been difficult to take the Third Miss with him. Later, seeing that they were about to die in the pursuit, Young Master Ling sacrificed his entire life essence to turn into a pill and fed it to the Third Miss. Young Master Ling died just like that."

Hearing this, Su Muyao was shocked and felt a sense of cruelty. "It's actually a way of sacrificing ice and snow spirit beasts?"

Xie nodded and said, "Yes, that's how Young Master Ling saved the Third Miss. He himself died at the same time, vanishing into thin air."

In fact, he heard many things from his mother, who is now a trusted bodyguard of the family head.

"It is said that the Third Miss cried in despair and did not want to use it, but the pill entered her mouth automatically and melted in her mouth. At that time, the Third Miss's body was completely cured, the poison was completely removed, and her awakened superpower directly reached level nine."

"Then the Third Miss went on a killing spree, slaughtering countless members of the Xie family."

"The Third Miss always says that she harmed Young Master Ling, and that if she had let Young Master Ling leave earlier, he would have lived a good life and things wouldn't have turned out this way. Moreover, the Third Miss says that Young Master Ling does not belong to our mortal realm."

"The Third Miss killed many people. At that time, all the Xie family members who were involved in the matter were killed. After taking revenge, the Third Miss wanted to commit suicide to follow Young Master Ling, but it was discovered that she was pregnant. She survived for the sake of Young Master Ling."

"From beginning to end, the patriarch has only had one beast husband, that is Young Master Ling, and there have been no other male beasts by his side."

"Perhaps the head of the family is also afraid that the young master's life or death will be tied to Miss Su."

The death of the wife and the beastly husband is indeed too cruel.

At that moment, Su Muyao suddenly understood why Patriarch Xie had said those things.

Rationally, she knew that it was more important for Xie Guixue to live well than to put him in danger by her side.

But being treated that way by the Xie family head, he still couldn't get over it.

Su Muyao took off the pendant from her neck and placed it on the table. "You can give this to your young master later, there's no need to mention me."

They have no relationship anymore.

Even if there is any danger, she will never use this thing again, nor will she bring him any danger.

This magical artifact should be connected to him.

She sincerely hoped that Xie Guixue would always be well.

Suddenly, Su Muyao realized something and asked, "What power did that mysterious person who appeared at the Xie family belong to?"

As Patriarch Xie just mentioned, the Ice and Snow Spirit Beast comes from a mysterious place.

What exactly is this place?
Xie shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"All news about the young master is under complete control. Only a few of us who take care of him know about it. No one in the Xie clan knows about it."

Su Muyao understood. After talking with Xie Yi, she also understood many things.

She tried to take the bracelet off, but couldn't because it looked like a magical artifact. "Why can't I take it off?"

She won't accept things that don't belong to her.

Xie Yidao said, "Only a level seven superpower can take it down."

There's nothing he can do if he only has a Level 6 certificate.

Su Muyao's expression hardened, and she said, "I understand. I should go back now."

Xie Yi wanted to say something, but he was neither the head of the family nor the young master, so nothing he said would make a difference.

"I'll take Miss Su home."

Su Muyao didn't refuse coyly; her safety did indeed concern many people, and she couldn't be willful. "Okay, then I'll trouble you."

When Xie Yi and Su Muyao flew over a mountain forest, they were ambushed.

The sound of bows and arrows vibrating came from deep within the dense forest. Countless arrows, forming a rain of arrows, shot out with chilling killing intent and a biting coldness as they pierced the air, heading straight for Su Muyao.
