Chapter 88: Know when to stop. A snake is worthy of it.

Mu Xingchen was extremely unhappy at this moment.

A snake, too.

"Have fun? Didn't I lie to you and betray you? Didn't I want me to live a life worse than death? Why are you looking at me like that?" Mu Xingchen stared at Li Jing with bloodshot eyes, an unstoppable smile on his lips.

Provocation, a completely crazy provocation.

Li Jing's hands were trembling slightly, his pupils were almost bleeding, and several black scales appeared on his neck because of anger.

Suddenly, he dropped the whip in his hand and smiled coldly.

"You're not afraid of the whip because you're more afraid of me, right?"

As he spoke, he slowly took off his clothes and his legs began to transform.

In an instant, Mu Xingchen's face turned as pale as snow. She said coldly, "Li Jing, don't be silly. I didn't give you half of my spiritual power just to turn you into a snake to scare me."

Li Jing paused: "Do you regret it?"

Mu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, and veins on her forehead were faintly popping out.

"Li Jing, enough is enough." When she said this, her face was extremely pale.

Li Jing's eyes turned red when he saw her like this. He walked over step by step, completely taking off his clothes.

Mu Xingchen frowned tightly, and the look in her eyes and the piece of black iron in her hand were exactly the same.

Li Jing reached out and pinched her chin, trembling slightly, "What's wrong? You weren't scared all the way here, but you're scared when you see me."

Mu Xingchen smiled weakly and said softly, "I'm not afraid of you, I'm afraid of snakes. You know, what I said just now was just angry words. I just wanted to make you angry. I lost half of my spiritual power to you. Isn't that enough to show how much you mean to me? And I was tied up by you obediently. If I didn't have you in my heart, how could I go with you? Ah Jing, I need some time."

Li Jing chuckled softly, he stroked her chin gently, and said gently: "It takes time? Then you will stay with me forever, right? But Mu Xingchen, which of your words can be trusted? You are a liar who is full of lies and can say words that can fool people. How can I believe you?" He leaned close to her ear, and his breath was like a poisonous snake.

Mu Xingchen closed her eyes: "Even if you are eager for me to prove it, it's not now. If you want to force me, just try it." She said the last few words lightly, but the weight of them was heavier than a thousand.

Li Jing suddenly exerted great force in his hand. He pinched her chin, and brought the corner of his lips close to her face. He said viciously yet gently, "Who do you think I am? Why are you so confident? Why do you think I wouldn't dare?"

Mu Xingchen opened her eyes and said weakly, "You dare, but you just can't bear to do it. Li Jing, why can't we talk properly? Even though I lied to you, didn't I also put myself in trouble? Even though I hurt you time and time again, I also saved you time and time again. And I didn't poison you. I can explain."

Li Jing slowly let go of her chin and chuckled, "Okay, then I'll give you a chance to explain it again. If you can't satisfy me, you won't be able to leave this dark cell today."

Mu Xingchen took a breath and closed her eyes to calm herself down.

"Stay away from me for now."

She still gets a tingling sensation on her scalp when she gets too close to him.

Li Jing regained his human form with a grim expression.

When Mu Xingchen opened her eyes and saw that the snake's tail had disappeared, she breathed a sigh of relief. She began to describe in detail the cause, process and ending of the incident.

"At first, I just wanted you to help me get rid of the Gu Ling, but later..."

After a while, Mu Xingchen said with a dry mouth: "That's it."

Li Jing narrowed his eyes: "So, the poison was administered by that man?"

Mu Xingchen nodded.

"You said you betrayed me because you made a deal with someone else. Since you said you liked me, why did you make that deal?"

Mu Xingchen's eyes darkened.

"Brother Jing, have you forgotten our fight in the palace? You seriously injured me back then. If we don't make this deal, my injuries won't heal for a long time, and my identity will be exposed." Mu Xingchen's eyes began to turn red as he spoke, aggrieved. "Besides, I did make that deal, but I also sent a message to you, asking your people to intercept that person. Afterwards, your identity was never exposed, and I was the one who betrayed the customer and got a warning."

Li Jing's eyes darkened: "Was that the message you sent?" No wonder his people couldn't find out who that person was.

"So, you have no choice?" he asked.

Mu Xingchen nodded heavily: "I really have no choice. I have no choice."

Li Jing smiled, and this smile was extremely sinister: "So, who is that man?"

Mu Xingchen's breathing stagnated.

"His name is... Bai Xu."

Li Jing regained his human form. He took two steps forward, squatted down, and touched her hair: "This time, you'd better not lie to me. If I find out that what you said is true, I will let you out."

Mu Xingchen nodded, she leaned her head on his shoulder, and said innocently: "I'm waiting for A Jing, it doesn't matter if I stay in jail for a few more days."

Li Jing put away his smile and left the prison the next second.

Xiao Qi was immediately shocked inside the bracelet and said, "It's amazing! You can even say black is white."

Mu Xingchen smiled and said, "It's a mixture of true and false, which shows the most sincerity."

She had just told him that if she didn't remove the Gu spirit, she would die, so she had no choice but to use him. But she chose not to use anyone else, only him, because she truly loved him.

She said that every time she fought him, it was only to protect herself. Although she injured him, she would also be attacked by the Gu spirit and be seriously injured. Every time she saved him, she would also be attacked by the Gu spirit, and the injury would be even worse.

She also said that the third reason she ran away from the marriage was that Bai Xu used his antidote to threaten her to leave, and she was under his control.

Mu Xingchen stood up and said calmly, "It's actually true."

The exploitation is real, the liking is real, the need for an antidote is real, and the reluctance to let go is real.

The only false thing was that she had no intention of returning to him.

"Xiao Qi, he's a snake."

The one creature she hated the most.

Xiao Qi was silent. "Are you leaving this time and never coming back?"

Mu Xingchen nodded: "Well, I won't be coming back."

They can fight the rest of the war.

"Calculating the time, it's almost time."

The next moment, the sound of fighting was heard outside.

Mu Xingchen curled the corners of his lips and said to the outside of the door, "You're a little late, Bai Xu."

"Bang" the prison door was split open. The moment Bai Xu saw the black iron in Mu Xingchen's hand, he was so angry that blood rushed to his head.

He gritted his teeth and said, "He dares to do this to you?"

Mu Xingchen asked coldly: "Go first."

Bai Xu nodded, and after the two left, he set fire to the room.

The fire was known to everyone in Kyoto.

Cold pool.

Xu Cen asked anxiously, "What happened to the Lord?"

Feng Xue felt the pulse for a long time and shook her head. "Severely injured." She stood up and said seriously, "This poison is too vicious, a thousand times more powerful than the bone-eating poison. The master used force today and suffered a severe backlash. I don't know who concocted this poison, it's too sophisticated. At this point, we can only find an antidote."

Xu Cen sighed helplessly, "Qi Feng sent a message saying that the Great Medicine King is on his way. But Mu Qing escaped, and the Lord is still unconscious. What can we do?"

Feng Xue narrowed her eyes: "I will definitely catch Mu Qing and make her hand over the antidote in person."

Xu Cen said in a deep voice: "She is not only Li Yan's person now, but also has connections with Qiansha Pavilion. Where does this woman come from?"

Feng Xue's eyes were bloodshot as he gritted his teeth and said, "No matter where they come from, they have bad intentions."

If she had known that day would come, she should have picked up the sword and killed her.

…….

Qiansha Pavilion.

Bai Xu held the black iron in Mu Xingchen's hand, his face looking extremely ugly.

Mu Xingchen said calmly, "It's useless. If I'm guessing correctly, this black iron should have been made by that old man. It can't be cut. Let's go find a locksmith."

Bai Xu pursed his lips and said, "Zizhu, go."

Zizhu glanced at Mu Xingchen and nodded.

Mu Xingchen leaned on the Pavilion Master's seat with his eyes closed, while Bai Xu stood aside. Everyone below looked at the scene in disbelief.

"Who is this woman? She is so favored by the Pavilion Master."

"Is this the woman the Pavilion Master has been looking for?"

"So this means you've found it?"

…….

Bai Xu stood beside her and asked cautiously, "Axing, what are your plans now?"

Mu Xingchen opened her eyes, looked at him, and suddenly asked, "How did you fight him today?"

Bai Xu's breath hitched. "He's seriously injured." He moved his right hand back, trying to hide the wound. He didn't want her to know he'd been injured by a poisoned, spent force. If he hadn't been wary of the Yuegan Clan and desperate to save her, he certainly wouldn't have let it go.

Mu Xingchen frowned and asked, "How long will it take for the antidote to be ready? Can it be made faster?"

Bai Xu's eyes darkened: "Axing you..."

Mu Xingchen slowly raised his eyes: "Only after the poison is cured can I leave with peace of mind."

Bai Xu's eyes lit up: "So from now on, will I have nothing to do with him?"

Mu Xingchen hummed softly.

Bai Xu immediately said excitedly, "Seven days, I can make the antidote in seven days."

Mu Xingchen nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will wait here for seven days."

Bai Xu was instantly overjoyed. He turned around and said to his subordinates, "From now on, you must be as respectful to her as you would be to me. Do you understand?"

The people below said in unison: "Yes, Pavilion Master."

Bai Xu took off the jade pendant from his body and gave it to Mu Xingchen, "With this jade pendant, you can do whatever you want."

Mu Xingchen took a look at the jade pendant and then took it.

Bai Xu breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes filled with joy that almost overflowed.

So what if that man had helped her remove the Gu spirit? In the end, he was the only one who stayed with her. After a while, when she no longer cared about him, he would find an opportunity to kill him.

Mu Xingchen looked at him with a sneer on his face.

Bite each other, so that you won’t have time to trouble her.
