Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

"Yes, master." Xiao Shi responded seriously after she cracked her knuckles showing her initial intent to hurt the coughing man.  Then she walked towards KaiKai and stood beside it like a dutiful servant.

With the wraith's actions from earlier, Xiao Shi did not have any problem freeing herself from Zhao Liwei's hold, added to the fact that her limiter had already been removed meant, she could take on anyone. 

If not for Yen Mingjue stopping her, Xiao Shi really intended to inflict Zhao Liwei with pain. 

Her jaws were tight as she tried not to clench her teeth too loudly so as to not be reprimanded by her master. 

So she could only glare murderously at the man her master called, 'her husband' . 

Xiao Shi did not back down and continued to give the man a dirty look even when Zhao Liwei raised his head, eyes looking at her intently. She found the way he stared at her annoying. Like an abandoned wounded animal, despite him being the one trying to claim her earlier. 

She was not that clueless about a beast's mating process. It always starts with the first touch. Then the bite, before the i.n.t.e.r.c.o.u.r.s.e. 

It was a good thing that she was technically dead thus this did not bind her. However if Yen Mingjue claimed it, she would not have a choice but to accept. 

Xiao Shi touched the bite wound on her neck and healed it. She really hoped that it would not leave a mark. 

Though in pain, Zhao Liwei still raised his head as he looked at Xiao Shi with a complicated expression. He was initially confused about what was going on. His connection with his beast-self had been in shambles for many years, that's the reason why he seldom shifted. 

Earlier the beast took over to forcefully claim his mate. However, Zhao Liwei was not sure if he should be happy because even though she'd been marked, her anger was clear. 

All these thoughts worried Zhao Liwei, instead of wondering how his mate had hurt him despite him not having any restriction talisman...

At this time, Wei Jiayi noticed that the man had already gotten control back from his beast, probably since earlier, but kept his mouth shut regarding it. 

"Well, this is a good start. Love and hate are closely linked to each other after all." Yen Mingjue stated happily, "Now I want to smell blood and see some killing!" 

…

"Damn, do the YinYings have nothing else better to do?!"  Gao Shen exclaimed as cold sweat soaked his shirt. He was almost at his limit, just imagine staying in one place for hours. "Where is father, anyway?!" 

Gao Qi heard Gao Shen's complain and he also felt worried. With this current situation, even if his father was not in the Shizi Empire, it was still impossible to miss this!

Despite being worried, Gao Qi knew that no one would try hurting his father in the mortal domain. Sadly, he could not fully mobilize the rest of the hidden Zicuiyu Regime without his father's others. 

The rest of the Zicuiyu Regime were restricted to a special training ground accessible by transportation magic and even though Gao Qi was the Gao Master, he still did not have command or access to it. 

He just hoped that the reason his father was missing was that the old man intended to mobilize their family army. 

"When we get out of this mess, I want father to reward me! Hehe, a harem sounds nice." Gao Shen stated wistfully. 

Shaking his head, Li Shao snorted, "Harem is a v.i.r.g.i.n's dream." He said deadpanned. 

Gao Shen's face turned red, "You! What do you know?!" 

"Concentrate! Something is wrong!" Li Mao suddenly exclaimed, after feeling that something was not right with the barrier they were trying to maintain. 

"There's a gap in the barrier!"
