Xiao Jingsheng was a cautious 'Gou Dao' (live-low-key) cultivator, contentedly managing the herb garden under the Dan King. He was a shift-working immortal bureaucrat, responsible for weedi...
Chapter 7: Lady, please respect yourself
Feeling the coldness from the other person's palm, a sickening feeling of suffocation instantly enveloped Xiao Jingsheng's whole body. It was the first time since he traveled through time that Xiao Jingsheng realized that death was so close to him.
But if I died like this, wouldn’t it be a bit too sloppy?
Thinking of this, he mustered up his courage and raised his eyes slowly with difficulty, as if he wanted to remember the other person's appearance at this moment.
What one cannot avoid when seeing is the other person's narrow, cold and clear eyes, which are faintly bloodshot. The long eyelashes are like the falling snow in the cold winter. The willow eyebrows are slender and inverted eight characters, as if there is frost that cannot be melted. The smooth snow-white forehead is printed with a vermilion that looks like a flower but not a flower, and like fire but not fire. The high nose bridge adds a bit of heroic and three-dimensionality to the entire exquisite facial features.
The other person's appearance was absolutely beautiful. Even if Xiao Jingsheng had lived two lifetimes, it was the first time he had seen such a flawless and beautiful woman.
It's so beautiful that it makes people feel suffocated!
No, if one had to find this flaw, it would be that the other person's gaze was too cold, as if he had no worldly desires at all.
"presumptuous!"
Seeing that the other party did not answer immediately and even dared to look directly at her, Jiang Qingyi's eyes flashed a cold light. Just as she was about to twist the other party's throat, she felt as if struck by lightning.
Soon he even had trouble staying afloat, and he slid down powerlessly from the air, covering his blood-stained chest.
Xiao Jingsheng, who felt the fresh air rushing into his lungs again, began to breathe in big gulps greedily. The moment he landed, he instinctively distanced himself from them.
However, he did not choose to counterattack immediately, because from the simple fight just now, it would be easy for the opponent to kill him.
When the pain in his throat eased a little, he whispered, "The Dan King has passed away. If you want to find him, it's too late."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingyi, who was forcibly suppressing her injuries, raised her head in surprise: "Dead?"
At the same time, Xiao Jingsheng noticed that the corners of the other person's rosy mouth were slightly pale, as if there were traces of blood that had just been wiped away.
Is this crazy woman injured?
"To reply, Senior, everything is true. The Pill King faced the calamity this evening, but ultimately failed to withstand the third thunder calamity."
Xiao Jingsheng bowed with both hands, very respectfully, but he lied a little.
In fact, Dan Wang couldn't even withstand the first thunder, but he treated him well in his life. Now that he is dead, we should at least save some face for him!
"Damn it! Why at this time..."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingyi became even more furious. She shook violently, and a sickly red flush appeared on her beautiful face.
“Get out of the way!”
After saying that, she suddenly rushed to the alchemy room, and began to search almost frantically under Xiao Jingsheng's gaze. She didn't care what kind of medicine she picked up, she poured it all into her mouth, feeling like a desperate person trying any possible means.
However, it also indirectly reflects the opponent's powerful strength. If it were someone with weaker cultivation, he would have exploded after taking a few doses of medicine. However, the opponent acted as if he was eating and drinking water without any abnormality.
But his expression became more impatient.
"Poisoned?" After all, Xiao Jingsheng had absorbed the Dan King's lifelong insights into alchemy, and he could tell something was wrong with the other party at a glance.
However, he did not rush to approach and question this moody woman, because he was worried that she would destroy him without any hesitation.
The slight joy of having just broken through the foundation-building stage had completely disappeared in the conflict just now.
It was also the first time that he felt that a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage was so fragile...
At the same time, Xiao Jingsheng found that the other party's condition was becoming more and more abnormal. He was taking drugs just now, but now he had begun to tear his clothes involuntarily.
Xiao Jingsheng turned his face away consciously, not wanting to look at anything inappropriate.
But his neck twisted back involuntarily, and his eyes widened into the size of copper bells.
At this time, Xiao Jingsheng was able to basically determine the cause of the opponent's illness. It seemed that he had inhaled some hallucinogens during the duel, and his whole body was abnormally red.
From this, we can also infer why the other party was so cruel when they met. Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that the other party is a murderer.
After all, in this world of cultivation where human life is disregarded, a strong person crushing a weak person is almost the same as crushing an ant.
What he was really worried about now was whether running away would arouse the other party's murderous intent.
[How dare this woman to offend you just now? She is simply lawless and deserves death! Hehehe, don't worry about anything. Just watch her fall into despair. When she pays the price for her arrogance and ignorance, you can take advantage of her corpse before it cools down and avenge your previous humiliation...]
You are worthy of it!
At this time, you are still playing this kind of international joke on me.
I was the only one appearing in the Dan Palace, so it should not be difficult for the other party to guess my identity. And now it has been such a long time, and no one noticed that someone broke into the sect. If he is not familiar with the formation mechanism of this sect, he is most likely an elder of the Piaomiao Sect.
Therefore, Xiao Jingsheng immediately determined that he could not leave.
For some reason, he had a vague intuition that now that he saw the other party in such a miserable state, if he just left, the other party would definitely take him away with him before dying.
After making up his mind, Xiao Jingsheng stepped forward decisively and asked tentatively: "Senior, if it is some medicine to resist hallucinogens, I should be able to refine one or two."
The next second, the other party's cold yet slightly charming gaze shot straight at him. In just half a breath, the other party flashed in front of Xiao Jingsheng again, with a hint of joy in his eyes: "Can you refine it?!"
After saying that, an unnatural blush flashed across Jiang Qingyi's face again, but she seemed to believe it a little more.
He could tell her situation at a glance, and he appeared in this Dan Palace alone, so he must be someone from this Dan Palace.
"As long as it's not a sixth-grade elixir or above, I should have a 70% chance of success."
Xiao Jingsheng nodded heavily.
Although he could only refine fourth-grade and lower potions before breaking through the Foundation Establishment Stage, he now possessed the Pill King's lifelong insights into alchemy. Except for high-level pills like the seventh-grade that must be refined with the Pill Evil, he could probably make the following pills.
"Huh~ How long will it take?" Jiang Qingyi instinctively moved her hair and immediately saw some hope. Even her rapid breathing improved slightly.
Just by seeing the other party's flirtatious movements, Xiao Jingsheng knew that the other party was already deeply poisoned.
His expression was a little unnatural as he said, "Well, it should take seven or eight hours."
Moreover, he was not very experienced. After all, he had never actually refined this high-level elixir, so it was inevitable that some of it would be wasted.
Jiang Qingyi's pupils suddenly trembled.
In my current condition, do you think I can last more than half an hour?
"You're kidding me!" She was so angry that she mobilized her spiritual power again and slammed towards Xiao Jingsheng.
Damn it!
Xiao Jingsheng was so scared that he closed his eyes.
He was also stupid. You could easily destroy the magic array that even Nascent Soul cultivators could not break. Who knew that you were so weak!
The opponent's palm, which contained terrifying pressure, finally fell down, but at the moment it touched Xiao Jingsheng's forehead, it suddenly changed direction, and finally stroked Xiao Jingsheng's neck gently like willow catkins.
It was hot and itchy, making Xiao Jingsheng shiver!
But when he opened his eyes again, there was no clarity in the other person's eyes. His expression was blurred and charming. The strange fragrance coming out of Qi Tan's mouth made Xiao Jingsheng's consciousness a little fuzzy.
The former was like a boneless beautiful snake that directly wrapped around it tightly.
Xiao Jingsheng was terrified: This monster has such powerful cultivation, no, I must fight back with all my might!
"Senior, please respect yourself!"
"Senior, no!"
"Senior, please at least set up a ban."
"Lady, please have mercy on me...be gentle..."
