Lu Wuxiu doesn’t dare to kill himself?
From the moment he saw him turn into a demon, Yan Baibai knew that he was doomed.
Originally, that was what she thought. But she and Lu Wuxiu had been entangled until now, and he still hadn't made a move. Yan Baibai began to doubt it.
"You..." Yan Baibai tried hard to make a sound. Lu Wuxiu's eyes turned cold and he pinched her even harder.
There was a struggle in his eyes. If he didn't kill Yan Baibai, once the people from Yanjian Sect arrived, with his current cultivation level, the result would be death; but if he killed Yan Baibai, he would not have time to clean up the scene, and the probability of being discovered would be very high. Given how much Master Yan Baibai valued her, he would be discovered sooner or later and targeted by Yanjian Sect, and in the end he could only wait to die.
Lu Wuxiu suddenly remembered why he had fallen into this situation, and then looked at Yan Baibai coldly. In addition to anger, there was also a hint of grievance in his eyes.
He was obviously trying to save this woman!
Yan Baibai saw all the changes in Lu Wuxiu's expression. Perhaps because she was having difficulty breathing and her brain was lacking oxygen, she actually regretted her decision for a moment.
Maybe, possibly, probably, it seems that Lu Wuxiu didn't originally want to kill her?
But the increasingly scarce air in her mouth and nose, the increasingly dark vision, and the gradually rising blood all told her that she no longer had the chance to find the truth.
“Woo—”
Yan Baibai groaned, and a trace of black blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. The black blood slowly fell, passed through her white and delicate chin, and gently dripped onto the back of Lu Wuxiu's hand that was pinching Yan Baibai's neck.
Lu Wuxiu was startled and quickly withdrew his hand. Yan Baibai's body instantly went limp. When she was about to fall to the ground, Lu Wuxiu quickly grabbed her and carried her back into the cave.
"Tell me, what should we do now!" Lu Wuxiu stared coldly at Shi Yanjian, who had been lying on the ground pretending to be dead since Yan Baibai woke up, with an extremely ugly expression on his face.
The Flame-Eating Sword shook a few times and then flew to a place not far from Lu Wuxiu. It seemed that it was starting to give Lu Wuxiu some advice.
"It's not that I can't bear to kill her." Lu Wuxiu looked at the Flame-Eating Sword expressionlessly, then lowered his head to look at the unconscious Yan Baibai before continuing, "Killing her will make me die faster now."
"I can't just leave her here and run away. The deacons and elders of the Yanjian Sect will arrive in an incense stick of time. They must have elixirs in their hands. If they rescue her by then, I will be found and killed immediately."
The Flame-Eating Sword was silent for a moment, then flew to Yan Baibai's face. The sharp tip of the sword touched Yan Baibai's lips. If it went down any further, Yan Baibai's lips would be cut.
"You're not smart. You want me to poison her and make her mute. When she wakes up, won't she be able to write or transmit messages through her telepathy?" Lu Wuxiu's face grew darker and darker. "Unless you turn her into a fool!"
The blade of the Flame-Eating Sword paused, then began to swing up and down, obviously agreeing with this proposal.
"It's reasonable that the toxin caused a fever, and she became stupid." Lu Wuxiu looked down at Yan Baibai in thought. He wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with his hand and said slowly, "No, this is not foolproof either. There are too many loopholes."
Hearing Lu Wuxiu say this, Shi Yanjian seemed to be extremely angry. He threw himself to the ground as if to give up, making a crisp knocking sound.
"I've already said it, it's not that I can't bear to let her go!" Lu Wuxiu must have been reminded of something by the Flame-Eating Sword again, and suddenly reiterated it loudly, then said, "Aren't you the Ancient Demon Sword? Don't you have a way to make her forget what happened tonight?"
As if stimulated by Lu Wuxiu's words, the Flame-Eating Sword lying on the ground suddenly flew up again, and then began to sway in the air.
"You mean, by using this secret method, not only she, but you and I might also forget what happened tonight?"
Lu Wuxiu's face paused, and he looked down at Yan Baibai. The hand that was wiping the blood for her unconsciously rubbed her chin, causing Yan Baibai's chin to turn slightly red. It was not known whether it was caused by his rubbing or the residual blood.
"How long will this method take, and will it leave any traces? We only have the time of an incense stick!"
Lu Wuxiu glanced back outside the cave, then raised his hand to look at the ball of water he had been holding. He seemed to laugh at himself and said, "That's good. It seems that before that, I still have to help her get rid of the poison."
Lu Wuxiu got a positive answer from the Flame-Eating Sword and began to help Yan Baibai detoxify. The water was ready, and now all he needed was a drop of his demonic blood.
The Flame-Eating Sword gently slashed towards Lu Wuxiu's hand holding the water ball, and the devil's blood mixed into the water ball. The antidote, no, it should be a poison that can compete with the poison in Yan Baibai's body, and it was done!
"But...how should I feed her?"
The medicine was ready, but how to feed it became a problem. If it were someone else, he could forcefully dislocate the person's jaw and then pry open their mouth to force the medicine down, but this was Yan Baibai.
I said, it’s not because I’m reluctant, but because doing so will leave traces and cause future troubles!
The Flame-Eating Sword started to come up with ideas again, but just by looking at the slightly shaking sword body, one could tell there was a sense of meanness in it.
Lu Wuxiu's face turned red again. After hesitating for a few seconds, he swallowed the ball of water into his mouth, lowered his head, and slowly passed it to Yan Baibai.
When he looked up, his face turned redder, and the red spread from his face to his ears and neck.
——
"Whoa—whoa—" The system blew two loud and long whistles, then started to laugh heartily: "Host, it turns out that before I even arrived, you had already formed such a close relationship with Lu Wuxiu, the male protagonist of this mission. I didn't expect that. I thought your first kiss was given to Mo Li's clone, hahahahahahahaha..."
"Have you laughed enough?"
An angry shout was heard, and the system's laughter stopped abruptly.
The person who spoke was not Yan Baibai, but Lu Wuxiu, whose face was still red.
If Lu Wuxiu hadn't been looking at the direction of the Flame-Eating Sword, the system would have almost thought that Lu Wuxiu was talking about itself!
It seemed that the Flame-Eating Sword was laughing wildly just like himself. The system had not expected that it would find a soulmate so suddenly.
"I sense a small amount of demonic energy rushing towards me. It must be the bloodthirsty demonic bats in the secret realm. They must have been attracted by my demonic energy. They arrived at the right time and can help me cover up these traces."
The secret realm of the sect's trial is of course kept secret from the outside world, but a few months before the secret realm began, the elders who taught the outer disciples in the sect had already told the disciples about the dangerous monsters they would encounter in the previous trial secret realms.
The bloodthirsty demon bats were one of the more formidable of these beasts. They were much larger than normal bats and carried a demonic aura. Although the demonic aura on each bat was very small, they would appear in large groups.
Legend has it that these bloodthirsty bats are products of the demon world. At first, Lu Wuxiu was skeptical about this information, but now, not long after he appeared, they came here following the scent, so it seems that the rumors are true.
