Qing Lin, My Little Wife—I've Been Targeted by a Succubus, Come Save Me!

"B-Big brother, you must have mistaken me for someone else. I'm not a Snake Person. I was just passing by and wanted to rest in the city for the night."

Xiao Yi Xian was practically on the verge of tears. She was just a young girl knocking on a gate.

What had she done wrong?!

Was there any need to treat her like a mortal enemy?

"Boss, she doesn't look like a Snake Person." At that moment, one of the guards noticed Xiao Yi Xian's bare feet and spoke to the squad captain.

"Uh, if she's not a Snake Person, what kind of decent person would be wandering around in the middle of the night?!"

"Brothers, throw this broad in jail. Maybe she's some notorious bandit. We might even earn ourselves some merit!"

The squad captain swept his gaze over Xiao Yi Xian and said with a vicious grin.

Damn it!

They had woken him up in the middle of the night. He had thought it was the Snake People Clan, that he could earn some military merit!

Who would've thought it was a woman? But that didn't matter. Once she was in jail, whether she was guilty or not would be up to him.

"A notorious bandit? She sure looks like one!"

"With a body like that, maybe she's even a succubus."

"..."

Hearing the squad captain's words, the others revealed lewd grins as well. They sheathed their weapons and closed in around Xiao Yi Xian.

"..."

"Damn it, how am I some notorious bandit? Shameless men—no, shameless Chen Changxin!"

With that thought, Xiao Yi Xian turned her head.

Behind her, there was no bedroll, nor was there any sign of Chen Changxin.

"Damn it! You called me your wife, and this is how you set up your own wife? Chen Changxin, I'm not done with you!"

Xiao Yi Xian's eyes reddened as she burst into aggrieved tears.

"Don't come any closer, or don't blame me for getting rough." Watching the men with their sinister gazes close in, Xiao Yi Xian backed up against the city wall, with nowhere left to retreat.

"Hehehe, getting rough? Big brother here likes it rough!"

"I hear succubi are great at subduing men with their bodies. Go on, subdue all of us brothers if you can. Otherwise, you won't be able to take back what you spill tonight!"

"Won't be able to take it back, huh~"

Rather than stopping, the soldiers looked even more excited as they crowded toward Xiao Yi Xian.

"Damn it, I'm not some succubus."

"Ah! Stay away!"

As the soldiers drew closer and closer, Xiao Yi Xian took out a packet of medicinal powder from her sleeve and scattered it.

In the next moment, every one of the soldiers collapsed unconscious on the spot.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi Xian smugly clapped her hands. "I told you not to provoke me. Serves you right, calling me a succubus."

"Your whole family is made of succubi!"

Inside the city gate!

Chen Changxin watched as Xiao Yi Xian was surrounded by the soldiers, a trace of hesitation appearing on his face.

That woman might not have been very bright, and she was always following him around.

But using such a method to ditch her was a little too cruel, wasn't it?

Just as Chen Changxin was about to intervene, his expression suddenly froze.

Sleeping powder?!

Good heavens, could she really be some notorious flower-plucking bandit?

Ahhh!!!

This was like slicing open an ass with a tiny knife—what an eye-opener!

The female leads who had been following the diary all day were stunned the moment they saw this opening line.

"Pah, Lich King!"

"Pervert!"

The female leads all spat at Chen Changxin in unison.

First, go through the motions. Then read the diary!

It had already become second nature to them.

They were used to it too. No matter how proper Chen Changxin's words sounded, they always made people's minds wander.

What an unlucky start today. Guess what I ran into in the desert?

Mummified corpses. Vampires. Damn unlucky. Next time I go out, I should check the almanac first.

Just as this Sword Emperor was about to rid the people of a menace, I discovered she was a woman on the verge of dying from thirst. She was just way too ugly, though her figure really was beyond reproach.

Light body, soft waist, easy to knock over at the slightest touch. What a shame she looked so dreadful. If only she had Your Majesty's or Princess Die's face, she'd definitely be top-tier!

This prince had sworn to save all living beings. When I saw injustice on the road, of course I had to loosen my belt and lend a hand, so I took out my waterskin and saved the girl!

Who would've thought this little girl would follow me afterward? Hmph! She must have been so captivated by this prince's handsome appearance and elegant temperament that she couldn't pull herself away!

Luckily, your husband here kept himself clean and had plenty of self-control. If it had been Xiao Yan, he'd probably have fed her aphrodisiacs already!

No helping it—being followed by a girl in the middle of the night, I couldn't exactly keep walking. I'd find somewhere to stay first!

Who would've thought there'd be a huge reversal, wives? Guess what I saw? The moment I reached Shimo City, I saw this girl poison a group of burly men to death!

I knew this woman was no good. Turns out she was a notorious flower-plucking bandit, a succubus from the Demon Domain, specializing in sucking the vital yang from handsome, refined men like me to nourish herself.

I seem to remember my little wife Qing Lin being in Shimo City. Your husband has been targeted by a succubus—hurry and save me. Coordinates: Shimo City's most luxurious inn, room unknown!

"Pah."

Upon seeing the diary, all the female leads spat in disdain.

Everyone knew that the Demon Domain lay far away in the North Sea Abyss, suppressed by the Ancient Emperor Formation. How could a succubus possibly appear in the Tagor Desert?

You?

Keeping yourself clean?

You probably wished that woman would climb right on top of you!

And what was that about being light-bodied, soft-waisted, and easy to knock over? Listen to yourself—are those even human words?

It was their first time seeing someone make lust sound so fresh and refined.

The key was that he was actually thinking about other women.

And telling someone to go save you at an inn?

How were they supposed to save you? Did anyone go to an inn to rescue someone?

That Qing Lin girl had better not go save this big scoundrel. If she went, she'd end up getting eaten herself.

"He really came to Shimo City."

"Pah, who's your little wife? You big pervert—best if the succubus eats you!"

Shimo City's slums.

Inside a dilapidated thatched hut, moonlight streamed through holes in the roof and into the room.

A girl of thirteen or fourteen hugged her knees, staring at the diary before her in astonishment, her pretty face flushing crimson without end.

A month earlier.

Qing Lin had found this diary beside an oasis. It would not sink in water or burn in fire, and Qing Lin had originally thought she'd found a treasure and would no longer have to go hungry.

Unexpectedly, only she could see this diary.

Later, Qing Lin curiously opened it and discovered that it was very strange. Every day, a great deal of new writing appeared inside.

It told of a Snake People Clan prince named Chen Changxin.

And this Qing Lin was human, yet she had actually been brought back to the Snake People Clan by the Snake People Clan's queen.

When Qing Lin saw Chen Changxin's background, she felt deeply connected to it, because her own mother had been abducted by the Snake People Clan.

Qing Lin felt that her fate was very similar to that of Chen Changxin.

Yet the two had completely different impressions of the Snake People Clan. Qing Lin hated the Snake People Clan, while Chen Changxin, the owner of this diary, seemed to truly enjoy living among them.

Weren't the Snake People Clan supposed to be bloodthirsty and detestable?

Why did Chen Changxin think the Snake People Clan were so cute and beautiful? Did anyone really like snake people?

The contents of Chen Changxin's diary plunged Qing Lin into self-doubt!
