"Xiao Wu! My Xiao Wu! Why… why is Xiao Wu here!"
Xiao Yexuan was leading Tang San somewhere, still feeling quite pleased with himself.
He was about to see the legendary 100,000-year soul beast.
But the moment he saw what was inside, Tang San completely lost it.
The girl tightly bound by vines—
Was none other than his beloved Xiao Wu.
When had Xiao Wu also been captured by Xiao Yexuan and brought here?
At this moment, Tang San could only think about Xiao Wu. The whole matter about the 100,000-year soul beast was thrown to the back of his mind.
How could he ever believe the Xiao Wu in front of him was the 100,000-year soul beast?
Xiao Wu also looked at the Tang San in front of her, both familiar and unfamiliar.
Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
After Xiao Yexuan chopped off her head, she quickly regenerated, but had been trapped here ever since.
She had cried out for help, but it was completely useless.
However, although Xiao Wu was imprisoned, she could still see what was happening outside.
It seemed like Xiao Yexuan was doing it on purpose, letting her witness it all.
First, Xiao Wu watched with her own eyes as Xiao Yexuan made her severed head into spicy rabbit head.
Then she saw Tang San. She thought Tang San had been suffering terribly here.
But in the end… he looked like a well-behaved little kitten.
While eating the spicy rabbit head, he even kept thanking Xiao Yexuan.
Xiao Wu felt that she must've misjudged Tang San.
Even when she was captured, she remained strong and never submitted to Xiao Yexuan.
But Tang San? He hadn't even been captured for long, and he was already acting so respectful toward Xiao Yexuan?
Especially when she saw how Tang San devoured the spicy rabbit head with such enjoyment—it made her even more disgusted.
Originally, after seeing Tang San, she had wanted to curse him out.
But now, seeing the concern and rage on Tang San's face…
Xiao Wu suddenly realized that maybe she had misjudged him.
Looking at Tang San now—he was clearly extremely worried about her.
Xiao Wu's heart was soft. As long as someone showed her the slightest kindness, she'd crawl over like a desperate puppy.
She imagined Tang San must have suffered immensely here, must have been horribly punished and humiliated, to end up as Xiao Yexuan's obedient dog.
But Tang San still loved her the most.
Then, Xiao Wu's tears began to fall. She looked at Tang San and choked out:
"Brother… That bastard, he didn't do anything terrible to you, right? I was so scared… scared I'd never see you again…"
"Xiao Wu, I'm fine. You… why are you here? Did he capture you too? That's outrageous!"
After seeing Xiao Wu, Tang San dropped the act. He knew exactly what kind of monster Xiao Yexuan was, and all the evil things he had done.
Now he had captured Xiao Wu—of course he'd try all sorts of twisted things!
Tang San believed that if it were Xiao Yexuan, he absolutely would.
Tang San didn't want Xiao Wu to suffer any further humiliation. Right now, there was no need to pretend anymore.
For Xiao Wu, he was willing to sacrifice his life, willing to be smashed to pieces.
After all, he was an orphan. He had finally found a sister to depend on—of course he would protect her without hesitation.
Xiao Yexuan rested his chin on his hand and said with amusement:
"Xiao San, what are you saying? This is your sister? Are you confused? She's a 100,000-year-old soul beast, you know!"
Xiao Yexuan casually exposed Xiao Wu's true identity.
Tang San froze. He knew about 100,000-year soul beasts who could transform into humans.
He just never imagined that one had always been right beside him—and it was the sister he loved the most.
Tang San stared blankly at Xiao Wu, utterly stunned.
But soon, his eyes turned resolute again. No matter what Xiao Wu was, she was still his Xiao Wu.
The sister he loved the most.
Then Tang San stepped in front of Xiao Wu, shielding her, glaring at Xiao Yexuan, and said:
"I will never, under any circumstances, let you hurt Xiao Wu—not even a hair."
"If you want to hurt Xiao Wu, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
"Brother… No… Don't die because of me!"Xiao Wu was moved to tears by Tang San's actions.
She had no regrets about bringing Da Ming and Er Ming to rescue Tang San.
Even though Da Ming and Er Ming died because of it, she still had no regrets.
As long as she could hear these words from Tang San, Xiao Wu felt at peace.
"Xiao Wu, I will definitely get you out of here,"Tang San said with deep emotion.
Xiao Yexuan clapped his hands nearby. The more emotional Tang San was toward Xiao Wu, the happier Xiao Yexuan became.
Now, if he punished Xiao Wu right in front of Tang San, wouldn't that just be the most exquisite torment?
With a casual wave of his hand, Tang San, who had been shielding Xiao Wu, was suddenly entangled by rapidly emerging vines.
He couldn't move. Let alone protect Xiao Wu.
"You… bastard! Let me go! Let me go right now!"Tang San screamed so loud his voice began to crack.
Xiao Yexuan, however, looked at Tang San with smug satisfaction and said:"Xiao San, remember the rules I gave you? When talking to me, you have to say 'Master' and meow~! Oh~!"
"You forgot how many times now? But this time, I'll let it slide. Every time you skip a 'Master' or a meow~! I'll just punish Xiao Wu for you!"
As he spoke, Xiao Yexuan walked over to Xiao Wu.
Tang San's eyes turned bloodshot. He screamed obscenities, enraged that the person he loved most, Xiao Wu, was being violated right in front of him.
Xiao Wu was already tied up. She had no chance to resist—Xiao Yexuan took her without difficulty.
Tang San's eyes were filled with murderous fury. If looks could kill, Xiao Yexuan would've died ten million times already.
Xiao Wu was falling into despair. How could someone like Xiao Yexuan exist?
"Xiao San, have you not realized it yet? You said you'd protect Xiao Wu, didn't you? And I told you—if you didn't speak properly to me, I'd punish her. You just gave me plenty of motivation!"
Xiao Yexuan took advantage of Tang San's mental breakdown to speak.
Tang San hated Xiao Yexuan to the core, but hearing those words, just as he was about to curse him again—
Tang San bit his lip hard. He knew—he couldn't keep lashing out. If he did, Xiao Wu might really end up roasted like a whole rabbit.
"Oh right, Tang San, let me tell you something. That spicy rabbit head you just ate? That was her head~!"Xiao Yexuan added cheerfully, seeing Tang San fall silent.
Tang San had only been worrying about Xiao Wu earlier, his mind filled only with her. But when he heard this—
He suddenly realized how horrific the situation really was.
His stomach twisted violently—he had eaten Xiao Wu...
He had actually eaten Xiao Wu...
Tang San's face twisted with hatred, and he opened his mouth—vomiting everything out.
To Tang San, today had been the most hopeless day of his life.
