Zhao Si's face darkened. Of course, he knew that the Rejuvenation Pill was precious. He had gritted his teeth and endured the pain when he encountered the Silk-Spitting Demon Spider, but it was no use. It was really not worth taking out the Rejuvenation Pill to save An Rong'er.
but……
He glanced at the projection stone on the tree next to him, which was glowing with an eerie light, and with a fierce determination, took the bottle containing the Rejuvenation Pill out of his storage bag and poured out one pill with trembling hands.
"Here you go, stop nagging!"
Anyway, An Rong'er hasn't used the Rejuvenation Pill yet. It's not impossible to get the Rejuvenation Pill back after we rescue An Rong'er.
Qi Yu swallowed the Rejuvenation Pill without hesitation and carefully examined its effects.
Zhao Si urged, "Hurry up!"
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. The Rejuvenation Pill in my stomach hasn't been digested yet."
Qi Yu touched her stomach and slowly formed a fire-igniting spell with both hands. The flame was weak, indicating that she was indeed lacking spiritual energy.
The flame touched the spider silk and slowly began to burn, little by little.
Seeing Qi Yu's actions, Qin Zhao couldn't help but say, "Miss, let's start from the beginning! She's about to suffocate."
Qi Yu paused, removed the spiritual fire from those feet, and said, "Sorry, I misread it."
Qin Zhao: "..." The head and feet are so different, how could I be mistaken?
The flames burned slowly, revealing half of a familiar face filled with grief, indignation, and resentment.
The spiritual fire only burned away the spider silk on the upper half of An Rong'er's face. Her eyes were filled with anger as she stared unblinkingly at Qi Yu, who was smiling.
From the joy of chasing the weasel demon to the despair of falling into the trap of the silk-spitting spider and being unable to call for help.
From the relief of hearing that someone had discovered their trail to the disbelief upon hearing that Yu Shengyan's unique, disgusting voice.
From the initial joy and disgust when Yu Shengyan began to untangle the spider silk binding the three of them, to the deep resentment she felt when Yu Shengyan said she had exhausted her spiritual power and was the only one unable to save herself.
Three ups and three downs!
How could she not hate that!
Qi Yu noticed An Rong'er's gaze and feigned surprise, saying, "Oh my, it's you, Miss An."
She laughed like a cat that had just stolen some cream, her peach blossom eyes narrowing. "I never expected that Miss An, who disdained to team up with me, would almost perish in the spider's jaws. Luckily, I ran into her. Otherwise, if I had met your father and he had asked how you died, I would have had a hard time answering. I'm afraid I would have had to return that Pegasus that didn't like you."
The spider silk covering An Rong'er's mouth was gradually lifted and burned away. Her lips trembled as she tried to speak.
Qi Yu suddenly withdrew his hand, and the spider silk fell back onto An Rong'er's mouth, sealing her lips completely.
An Rong'er looked at Qi Yu with a mixture of shock and anger, making "uh-uh" sounds as if she were cursing.
Qi Yu innocently shook her slightly sore hand and looked at Zhao Si, saying, "What should I do? My spiritual power is gone again."
Zhao Si: "..."
He gritted his teeth, took out the small medicine bottle again, and handed the last Rejuvenation Pill to Qi Yu.
"for you."
He then turned to An Rong'er and warned, "Miss An, I, Zhao Si, saved your life, so don't forget that."
Qi Yu tossed the Rejuvenation Pill into his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it, as if he were still savoring it, like eating a candy.
She flicked her fingertips, feeling that while teasing them was satisfying, seeing their faces still made her feel nauseous. So she summoned a fireball, which instantly burned away all the spider silk on An Rong'er's body.
The fireball was ridiculously large, almost burning An Rong'er's hair off as well, showing no sign of Qi Yu's previous weakness from exhausting his spiritual energy.
Everyone: "..." Now everyone knows that you were pretending to have no spiritual power just now.
Zhao Si stared wide-eyed, speechless, at the fireball.
"You, you, you clearly have spiritual power, why did you lie to me about the Spirit Recovery Pill!"
Qi Yu clenched her right fist slightly, and the fireball disappeared instantly. She said innocently, "Oh dear, how can you say it's a scam? It's just that the Flying Star Sect's Spirit Recovery Pill is so effective that it instantly restored all my spiritual power."
She turned to a projection stone on a nearby tree, winked at it, and began to flatter it.
"The Flying Star Sect is indeed a great sect; their Spirit Recovery Pills are truly exceptional."
The people in the council hall: "..." Okay, stop pretending. Everyone knows you're just flattering them.
Zhao Si glared at Qi Yu with burning anger, only managing to refrain from hitting him thanks to the last shred of his rationality.
An Rong'er was so angry she was about to vomit blood. Although Qi Yu had burned off the spider silk on her body, Qi Yu had deliberately put the spider silk on her lips earlier, and now the spider silk on her lips was extremely sticky. When she pulled off the spider silk, she also peeled off a layer of skin from her lips.
A strong smell of blood wafted from her lips, and An Rong'er's eyes almost blazed with fire. Her hand, pointing at Qi Yu, trembled like a leaf.
"Yu Shengyan! You...you can! Don't let me catch you off guard, or else!"
"Hmm? Miss An, I just went through a lot of trouble to rescue you from the spider webs. Why don't you thank me? Instead, you look like you want to settle scores with me?"
The people in the council hall were speechless. Although An Rong'er should indeed thank you, putting themselves in An Rong'er's shoes, they felt it was reasonable to settle scores with you.
Why is that?
Bai Huan laughed heartily, and only by supporting Liu Xing did she avoid falling to the ground.
"Hahaha, Xiaoyan is so talented! I've disliked An Rong'er for a long time, and it felt so good to teach her a lesson!"
Helplessly, Liu Xing supported Bai Huan, a smile returning to his eyes that he hadn't seen in a long time.
He stared at the black-clad girl in the water mirror, who looked like she was about to drive him crazy, and pursed his lips.
His goal was to retaliate in kind, to give an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
...
An Rong'er tried several times to raise her hand and smash Qi Yu to death with a ball of clods of earth, but she gave up because she had run out of spiritual energy.
Blood trickled from her lips down to her chin, and Qi Yu, seeing this, thoughtfully took out a handkerchief and wiped it clean for her.
"How pitiful, all that blood."
An Rong'er slapped her hand away and said angrily, "I don't need your pretense!"
Qi Yu touched his hand that had been shaken off, listened to the system voice in his ear, and looked at An Rong'er with a smile.
[Congratulations on successfully completing the "Do a Good Deed Every Day" task! Your actions saved a young girl from near death, a kind woman, and a somewhat wicked man. You are awarded 30 points as encouragement!]
The system's notification sound was somewhat weak, clearly indicating that it had seen through her shady dealings, but since what she did was indeed a good deed, it had no choice but to award her points.
Qi Yu's smile grew even brighter.
An Rong'er looked at Qi Yu, who still had a strange smile on his face after being humiliated by her, and for some reason felt a little uneasy. She forced herself to throw the handkerchief on the ground and said to the other two, "Let's go, haven't you been tricked enough already!"
Zhao Si glared fiercely at Qi Yu again before following An Rong'er away.
Qin Zhao hesitated for a moment, then whispered "thank you" to Qi Yu, and jogged to catch up with the two of them.
