Chapter 3 Willing to Dissolve the Marriage Contract
Jiang Xi casually replied, "It's nothing, I just did a small experiment."
Lu Liufeng pursed his lips and didn't ask any further questions, but while stirring the porridge, he would occasionally glance in the direction of the female master.
At the edge of the stone basin, Jiang Xi dipped her palm into the water again.
A shimmering green light reappeared, and she infused the water with healing power.
Then take a deep breath, hold it, and bury your face in the water.
A tingling, numb sensation spread across my face.
Jiang Xi didn't take her face out of the water until she couldn't hold her breath any longer.
Sure enough, the water in the stone basin turned black.
Moreover, this hydrotherapy method treats a larger area while consuming less supernatural energy.
Jiang Xi's eyes lit up with joy.
But looking at the basin of dark water, he fell silent again.
The black liquid on her body looked very poisonous.
The stone basin was too heavy, and she tried to move it but found she couldn't, so she had to ask Lu Liufeng for help.
"Lu Liufeng, could you please help me pour this basin of water outside? Don't pour it inside the house."
What if we poison everyone to death...?
Lu Liufeng walked over and easily picked up the stone basin.
Jiang Xi glanced at him enviously, then quickly reminded him.
"Be careful not to get splashed by the water inside, it might burn you."
Lu Liufeng gave a soft "hmm".
It felt like I was in a dream.
He never imagined that the female master would become so gentle.
As Jiang Xi watched him walk towards the backyard, she heard the sound of a door opening behind her.
She turned around and looked.
A man with white hair and blue eyes, and an exceptionally handsome appearance, walked in. Even though he was wearing a blood-stained animal skin outfit, he couldn't hide his alluring aura.
This is Jiang Xi's snow fox beast husband, Yi Yuexi, a famous handsome man in the Holy City, who has attracted countless females to fight over him.
Finally, he was pressured by Jiang Xi's holy mother and forced to marry her.
Since their marriage, he has never paid any attention to Jiang Xi, and he makes no attempt to hide his disgust and rejection of her.
But the more he rejected him, the more the original owner of this body liked him.
He was like a trophy that the original owner used to show off; even just looking at him was pleasing to the eye.
Yi Yuexi glanced at her indifferently with her upturned fox eyes, then went straight back to her room and slammed the door shut with a "bang".
Jiang Xi was actually relieved that he ignored her.
Lu Liufeng saw this scene after he finished pouring the water.
He was worried that the female master would get angry, so he took the initiative to explain on Yi Yuexi's behalf.
“He was injured last night and was receiving treatment at the medicine hut, so he only came back now.”
Last night, Lu Liufeng had told him that the female master's spiritual power had recovered and manifested, and that he should come back and ask the female master for treatment, which would be more effective than any herbal medicine.
But Yi Yuexi frowned and said, "Even if I die, I will not beg her."
Jiang Xi noticed that Lu Liufeng's beautiful long eyes flickered, and guessed that Yi Yuexi was unwilling.
She nodded, not insisting.
"Let's eat, I'm so hungry."
Before dinner, Mu Ling returned carrying firewood.
His animal hide was half-undone, revealing half of his muscular upper body. Even though it was covered in white snow outside, fine beads of sweat glistened on his wheat-colored skin, making him look incredibly sexy.
Jiang Xi glanced at it and then quickly looked away.
Lu Liufeng ladled a pot of cooking liquid onto several large wooden bowls; it was sticky and gooey, and it was impossible to tell what it was.
Mu Ling put down the firewood, casually wiped the sweat off his body, and sat down by the fire.
There were no tables in the kitchen, so everyone sat around the fire, each holding a bowl to eat.
The closed door shut out the cold air from outside, making the atmosphere in the kitchen strange.
Because the female master never eats with them here.
We usually have to deliver it to her room.
Lu Liufeng added a handful of firewood somewhat awkwardly.
Mu Ling didn't look at the female master from beginning to end; he held the bowl and ate very quickly.
Jiang Xi looked at the clump of something in the bowl, scooped up a spoonful with a huge wooden spoon, and put it in her mouth. Her brows furrowed as soon as she put it in.
It was so... so... so awful...
What are all these things...?
A smell of earthiness mixed with the pungent smell of meat; after swallowing it, she almost vomited.
Lu Liufeng noticed her reaction and spoke up somewhat awkwardly.
"My lady, there was a beast tide last night, and we didn't have time to go hunting in the mountains. Please bear with us and have some porridge."
Mu Ling finished one bowl in a few bites and started scooping out the second.
Seeing Lu Liufeng's ingratiating expression, he couldn't help but speak up.
"My lady, there are few prey in the mountains in winter, and many families in the tribe are starving. Please, my lady, stop being so picky about food."
Jiang Xi pursed her lips.
She's never a picky eater, but this was just so awful.
"Mu Ling!" Lu Liufeng quickly called out to him, telling him to stop talking so as not to anger the female master and make him suffer.
Mu Ling lowered her sharp eyebrows, showing no sign of backing down.
“In spring, summer, and autumn, the female can be picky about food, but now that it’s freezing cold, where can she find prey?”
"Lu Liufeng, can you guarantee that we'll catch our prey today if you say that?"
"I've said my piece; the female can hit or scold me as she pleases!"
The original owner grew up in the Holy City and was used to being a picky eater.
After being exiled to the cursed land, they would only eat if they had fresh meat every day; otherwise, they would rather go hungry than eat meat that had been left overnight.
According to Jiang Xi's recollection, she caught a small prey yesterday, about the size of a squirrel, but she ate it all in one day.
Jiang Xi remained silent for a few moments before looking at Mu Ling.
"I won't hit you, and I won't hit any of you in the future."
The man had sharp brow bones and a cold, imposing demeanor. If she hadn't known that orcs couldn't lay a hand on females, she really wouldn't have dared to speak to him face to face like this.
"I will also find a way to deal with the food issue, and I won't let you all bear the burden."
Jiang Xi glanced at both of them at the same time.
"I know you all want to dissolve our marriage contract. As long as we can find the Golden Soul Fruit, I will cooperate with you to dissolve the marriage contract."
The Golden Soul Fruit was the solution she found in her memories.
Even if the Golden Soul Fruit is used, the female master must be willing to release it in order to minimize the damage to the beastman.
She didn't know how the five from the Holy City had managed it, but if the five beastmen from the Cursed Land could find the Golden Soul Fruit, she was willing to cooperate.
If the relationship cannot be improved, she doesn't want to spend her whole life with these few people who hate her.
Once the poison lesions on her body are healed, she can find a new, loving husband and spend her life with him.
Lu Liufeng and Mu Ling were both stunned.
Although Lu Liufeng knew that the female master had changed a lot.
But he never imagined that the female master would be willing to dissolve their marriage contract.
The female protagonist used to talk about the marriage contract in order to curse the five beast husbands in the Holy City. She used all sorts of vicious language to curse them, hoping that they would lose their superpowers or die completely after breaking off the marriage contract with her.
She further warned the five people from the Cursed Land that if they dared to use the Golden Soul Fruit to dissolve their marriage contract, she would not let them have their way, and even if they were to be dissolved, they would be left half-dead.
