The medicine smelled awful, the man was handsome, and Ma Lihua was dozing off.

Shangguan Wenyan: "……………………"

That's really impressive! She even managed to catch up on sleep so she could go listen to the music.

With a helpless sigh, I thought, "Fine!"

He'd like to go and see what's interesting to hear.

She would soak in the water for three hours a day, and after that, she would quickly climb into bed and go to sleep, without even glancing at any handsome man.

With a dark expression, Shangguan Wenyan dealt with the medicinal water she had soaked in, and then went to see his pet.

Deep within that secluded and tranquil jungle lurks a terrifying eight-meter-long black snake.

Its body, like a dark lightning bolt, meanders among the thorns and grass.

The black snake's scales shimmered with a dark luster, as if the night had bestowed upon it armor. Each scale was tightly connected, yet it exuded a chilling coldness that sent shivers down one's spine.

Its slender body is agile and unpredictable, moving silently through the forest like a ghost.

Its eyes, like two cold gems, emitted a sinister light.

The cunning glint in his eyes suggested he was calculating the weaknesses of every prey.

When it fixates on its target, its gaze instantly becomes sharp and focused, like a hunter locking onto its prey.

The black snake moved with extreme caution, approaching silently and using its surroundings as cover.

Each wriggling movement was precise and rhythmic, as if performing a meticulously choreographed dance, only this dance was fraught with deadly danger.

Its tongue would occasionally dart out, quickly sensing the surrounding atmosphere. The forked tip of its tongue was like a keen detector, not missing any subtle movement.

When the black snake attacks, it moves with lightning speed.

Its powerful muscles contracted instantly, and its body, like a black arrow released from a bow, swiftly pounced on its prey.

Its fangs are revealed in an instant, cold and sharp, mercilessly piercing the prey's body and injecting deadly venom.

After succeeding, it quickly disappeared into the darkness, leaving behind only silence and fear.

This eight-meter-long black snake is a shadow in the jungle, an embodiment of coldness and cunning, inspiring awe and fear in every animal that ventures into this place.

"Clap clap clap!"

A loud slap rang out, but the black snake, swallowing its prey, did not pause in its movements because of the sound.

"Ba Dou! Be more refined when you eat." Shangguan Wenyan's words carried a hint of coldness.

When I see something excellent, I will praise and commend it without hesitation.

Knowing that Pear Blossom has lost her memories, she must be terrified of this brutal scene. He needs to properly train his pet.

Ma Lihua: "??????"

Fear? Not at all. Memories? Sorry, she has a great memory! She's just a bit more down-to-earth.

Looking at the gloomy sky, Shangguan Wenyan stood under a tree on the mountaintop. On the tree was a huge black snake coiled up, its belly showing no signs of the bloating that one would expect from someone who had eaten.

A sense of loneliness welled up in Shangguan Wenyan. Below the mountaintop was a cliff, on which many insects clung. Among them, an eight-winged centipede with long wings stood out conspicuously.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

It kept calling out, then flapped its wings and flew up.

Shangguan Wenyan glanced at it sideways and saw that it obediently surrounded him.

A black aura emanated from his body, and the black snake and the eight-winged centipede on the tree were overjoyed as they absorbed the black aura.

Soon, many sounds came from deep in the mountains, which he had isolated with a barrier. Tie Zhu rushed up to the cave and heard monkeys, as well as some ferocious beasts and monsters that could not possibly exist in this world.

As for spirit beasts and divine beasts, he doesn't keep those.

They surrounded Shangguan Wenyan, inhaling the black gas with an almost addictive fervor, like addicts.

Shangguan Wenyan also came to feed his pets. He glanced at Tiezhu and frowned slightly.

"You scared the guests by running out today."

Tie Zhu shuddered, letting out a loud "Awooo!"

Speak like a human.

Tie Zhu: "……………………"

Master, you must have forgotten that you placed a restriction on us. How can we speak human language?

"There will be no next time." Shangguan Wenyan said coldly and ruthlessly, his eyes filled with icy indifference.

Tie Zhu shuddered and nodded.

For miles around, not a single animal dared to approach.

He touched the black scales of the croton, his eyes as black as ink.

“We’ve had enough of this world; it’s time to go back,” Shangguan Wenyan said in a low voice.

"Roar roar roar..."

"Awoooooo..."

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

All the surrounding monsters and ferocious beasts danced wildly, roaring and howling excitedly.

Seeing that they had absorbed almost everything, Shangguan Wenyan stood up, wearing a dark red robe and with his long black hair fluttering in the wind.

He smiled slightly, the corners of his mouth turning up. Now he had to go back and cook; Pear Blossom should be awake by now.

His laughter dazzled all the ferocious beasts and monsters. If their master had laughed before, there would probably have been corpses stretching for miles.

I heard that the Ma family only accepts sons-in-law who live with them, so he'll have to work on his cooking skills.

As for the Ma family, if he wanted to know, even God couldn't hide it from him.

The recollection is as follows.

Baiyun huddled in the cave, her body shivering with cold. The man who had suddenly appeared had eyes full of indifference and ruthlessness, as well as an innate nobility.

"A talking monster? It seems we've found the Ma family's guardian beast!" The man's icy words left it breathless.
