Shengqing, suppressed by Yujing, grew anxious and fought for control of their body. "Yu Yu, don't misunderstand, I didn't—"
Before he could finish, Yujing snatched control back. "You're not misunderstanding. I did."
Furious, Shengqing seized control again, unable to stop himself from blurting out, "I told you! Stay out of my business with Yu Yu!"
Yujing took control yet again. "If I stay out of it, it'll take you till kingdom come to mate with her!"
The invisible tension was stalled for a moment by Shengqing's bizarre words.
Shi Wei held Su Yu, watching the Snake Beast's rapidly changing expression with bewilderment. He silently held her and edged a little farther away.
Shi Wei looked at Su Yu with a serious expression and said, "Yu Yu, I'm not against you finding a powerful Snake Beast as a Beast Husband, but we can't choose one like him, whose brain has clearly been corrupted by impurities."
