Just thinking that he had done something against the laws of nature with Shu Yue, all thanks to this snake demon, a fire ignited in his heart in an instant.
The spells that usually didn't work now gathered into a force in his palm. With red - glowing eyes, there was nothing but hatred and coldness towards Yan Yijue.
Yan Yijue still looked nonchalant on the surface, but in fact, he had already seen through Shu Yao's impending attack.
He continued to act lazy and unperturbed, making Shu Yao overlook the vigilance beneath this laziness. Shu Yao raised his right hand, which was entangled by vines. The hideous black veins were prominently exposed, and his long, pointed nails were only inches away from Yan Yijue's body.
Shu Yao originally thought that Yan Yijue hadn't noticed, but he underestimated the high sensitivity and lightning - fast movements of this thousand - year - old snake king.
The right hand he wanted to use for the attack was caught by a long, strong hand. Then, another force grabbed his waist, and he was unexpectedly pulled into the embrace.
This embrace was as cold as an ice cellar, but the breath in his ear was as hot as a raging fire.
He was held tightly in Yan Yijue's arms. His back was pressed against the iron - like chest. Even through the clothes, the cold air on that body could seep into his bones from the inside out.
He heard a deep, hoarse voice with an undeniable force faintly coming: "Not to mention that you can't hurt this king. Is it really necessary to fight with this king just for such a trivial matter?"
Facing the cold fragrance in his arms, the cold and lustful desire in Yan Yijue's eyes became even stronger. For a thousand years, he had never had such a reaction.
Moreover, it was a man, a tree demon who had killed his relatives!
"Yan Yijue, what grudge do I have against you? Why have you been targeting me from the very beginning?"
He didn't know when he had offended this snake king, which made him try every means to make things difficult for him and torture him.
Even though he was facing away, he could faintly feel the extremely powerful and dangerous aura behind him. The cold air completely enveloped him.
The hand on his waist tightened involuntarily. His body was originally slender, and the tightening force made him frown in pain.
"I've said that you will get the answer before you vanish into thin air," Yan Yijue squinted his eyes slightly. The crimson light shot straight into people's hearts, carrying a touch of alluring charm: "Now, you just need to enjoy the gift this king bestows on you. This king never gives this gift to others easily."
"This gift of yours is too big. I can't accept it."
"Then just bear it. When the love - causing gu worm attacks, if you think it's shameful to be with your child, you can come to this king. This king will do his best to help you."
What he said was extremely euphemistic, but every word was filled with romance and ambiguity, seeping into Shu Yao's eardrums and making his ears turn red.
"Yan Yijue, you're shameless!"
"This king accepts your accusation of being shameless," he suddenly leaned over, closed his beautiful eyes, and took in the fragrant smell. He sighed faintly: "Your smell is really delicious. I really want to devour you right now."
The words that Shu Yao hadn't had a chance to refute were interrupted by a wet feeling on his neck. He tilted his head slightly and vaguely saw the forked red snake's tongue lingering in front of his neck.
He was shocked and struggled to break free from the cold embrace. He took a few steps back, disgusted by the wet feeling on his neck.
"You disgusting snake demon, don't touch me!"
As soon as these words were out, the charming and coquettish smile on Yan Yijue's face disappeared in an instant. Instead, he looked as cold as ice.
Out of nowhere, a cold wind blew. His gorgeous red robe fluttered, and his silver hair fluttered wildly in the wind. His charming and alluring dark red eyes hid mystery and coldness, yet showed a kind of aloofness that seemed to look down on all sentient beings.
He stepped closer to Shu Yao step by step, and Shu Yao stepped back. He was intimidated by this man's powerful aura.
Although they were both demons, he felt like an ant that this snake king could easily trample under his feet. His meager spells were simply no match for him.
He kept stepping back, but suddenly tripped over a stone and fell into the weeds without warning.
The force of a strong body pressing on him stopped his idea of getting up and running away.
His legs were forcibly spread apart, and his two hands were firmly pinned on both sides of his head. The dark aura that enveloped him from above carried not only the undeniable cold charm but also this man's insatiable possessiveness.
"Yan Yijue, what are you doing!" Being pressed under a man like this, he could feel the strange object pressing against his lower abdomen.
Although this body was still cold without temperature, the blazing fire in his eyes was like ice and fire.
"Moving around so much. You're really disobedient." As if talking to himself, he then tapped a point on Shu Yao's body with his long finger. The struggling beauty beneath him immediately became as still as a mummy.
He grinned in satisfaction: "Look, this is much better."
"Mm - mm..." Besides being unable to move his body, Shu Yao found that he couldn't speak either. He could only make whimpering sounds from his throat.
Now he was just like a little lamb on display. Looking at this dangerous male animal in front of him, although his eyebrows were full of charm, there was a destructive aura in his eyes inadvertently.
Just when he thought he was about to be at this man's mercy, unexpectedly, the man on top of him got up and instead reclined beside him lazily and seductively.
He propped his head up with one hand. His noble figure was in a half - lying position. His silver hair was scattered all over his body, setting off his handsome and picturesque outline against the red. His long, upturned phoenix eyes made people involuntarily fall into his momentary charm.
"Can't speak. Is it very uncomfortable?"
Hearing Shu Yao's continuous whimpering sounds, he just shook his head regretfully: "Don't blame me. It's your own fault for being so disobedient. Not only did you struggle, but you also shouted. This king had no choice but to seal your mouth."
He sounded quite innocent, but he was looking at this over - confident little tree demon with great interest.
To be honest, apart from thinking that he was the most beautiful one in the demon world, he never expected that there could be a man so extremely beautiful that all things would feel inferior in his presence.
He even thought that if this little tree demon were a woman, he might fall in love with her, although he never believed in human feelings.
Maybe for him now, he still didn't believe in the so - called ridiculous promises in the world, but he never expected that he also had an unexpected destiny.
Perhaps feeling that the whimpering sound was really annoying, Yan Yijue tapped a point to release his ability to speak and said, "The continuous 'mm - mm' sound is so annoying. What on earth do you want to say?"
As if he had been suddenly released to breathe, Shu Yao took a few deep breaths of fresh air and glared angrily: "Yan Yijue, quickly unlock my acupoints. Isn't it despicable to use such a small trick!"
"It's not despicable. On the contrary, this king thinks it's quite fun."
