Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 757

Chapter 757: Chapter 757: The Sacred Pond’s Trial

The Sacred Pond was eerily quiet, wrapped in an unbroken silence that felt almost divine. A thin layer of white mist drifted lazily across the crystal-clear water, hiding everything in a dreamlike haze.

Gentle ripples spread across the surface again and again, carrying a strange aura that seemed to have existed since the beginning of time.

In the very center of the pond, Su Qinglan was completely soaked from head to toe. Her snow-white robes clung tightly to her delicate figure, while her long ginger hair floated around her like strands of soft seaweed beneath the translucent water.

She looked breathtakingly beautiful in the ethereal light.

Yet her beautiful face had become frighteningly pale, devoid of all her usual lively color.

She leaned weakly against An Mo’s broad chest, her breathing uneven, ragged, and shallow. Every breath felt painfully difficult, as if the dense divine energy around them was suffocating her fragile lungs.

The rims of her eyes had turned bright red, making her look unbelievably pitiful and helpless. Her entire body trembled uncontrollably in his arms, shivering from the inside out.

It felt as though every single bone inside her body was being shattered and reforged over and over again.

The pain she was enduring was far beyond words or description.

Unable to bear it any longer, she instinctively buried her face deep into An Mo’s chest, clutching tightly at his wet robes as though he were the only solid anchor keeping her standing in this tempest.

She desperately wanted to draw strength from his solid presence and warm body.

She wanted nothing more than to hide completely inside his safe embrace. Yet no matter how close she pressed against him, nothing could lessen the burning pain spreading through every corner of her body.

An Mo’s heart felt as though someone was ruthlessly tearing it apart piece by piece. He carefully brushed the wet, stray strands of hair away from her face, his heart aching violently. His large, warm hand gently cupped her icy cold cheek, trying to offer any comfort he could.

"My Lanlan..." His voice was softer than the gentle morning breeze, trembling with emotion.

"Just bear with it a little longer, my love. It will all be over soon." As he spoke, he gently pressed a tender kiss against her smooth forehead, lingering there.

He shifted his lips to kiss her temple and then the delicate corners of her eyes.

Each kiss was incredibly light and tender, as though he wished he could kiss away every single trace of excruciating pain she was currently enduring for the sake of their future together.

If he could, he truly wished he could take all of her suffering onto himself without hesitation. He would gladly bear this agonizing torment a thousand times over if it meant she would never have to feel even a single fleeting moment of pain or distress in her life.

His mate should never have to suffer like this. Su Qinglan slowly lifted her watery eyes to meet his.

Those beautiful eyes, usually filled with fierce confidence and mischievous light, were now clouded with intense pain, yet the moment they looked at An Mo, they softened completely.

At that singular moment, he was her entire world, the only person she could see in the mist. He was the only person she wanted to rely on in her moment of utter vulnerability.

She unconsciously moved even closer, her trembling fingers gripping his wet clothes tighter and tighter.

An Mo’s breathing became heavier as he held her fragile frame. His throat bobbed, and his heart trembled violently within his chest.

He had always known that his Lanlan was remarkably strong, a woman who laughed when facing deadly danger and smiled even when carrying heavy burdens.
