"Cough cough! Ugh~" Xuan Yuan Yu was instantly choked badly, and in a panic, he choked on the unknown little bead, trying to spit it out, but after spitting for a while, nothing came out!
"What did you feed me?" Xuan Yuan Yu immediately turned to Long Jiao Jiao in anger.
Long Jiaojiao laughed dismissively, "It's just a tiny bug that can make you keep your promise!"
...Xuanyuan Yu was instantly enraged. He pounced on Long Jiaojiao and grabbed her by the neck, saying fiercely, "You dared to use a curse on me! Give me the antidote!"
Tiny insects? How could this woman even say that!
What right does she have to cast a spell on him so easily?
Xuan Yuan Yu's methods were like a tickle to Long Jiao Jiao. She didn't even struggle, but instead thrust the whip into Xuan Yuan Yu's throat: "This Holy Maiden advises you to put down your claws before this Holy Maiden gets angry."
The sharp spike pierced his throat. Xuan Yuan Yu instantly remembered Long Jiao Jiao's previous methods and had no choice but to let go, but he still insisted, "Give me the antidote."
Long Jiaojiao ignored him: "Don't worry, this Holy Maiden won't let you die. Not only will I not harm you, I will also help you ascend to the throne of Eastern Chu. I put the Gu on you only to ensure your promise. Otherwise, what if you turn your back on me if I really help you become the Emperor of Eastern Chu? This worm is to help me wholeheartedly assist you!"
Xuanyuan Yu stared at Long Jiaojiao's cunning eyes and knew that this woman would definitely not remove the curse from him. He could only give up for the time being and frowned, saying, "What method do you have to help me ascend the throne!"
Xuanyuan Yu stared intently at her, as if he would kill her if she couldn't give him a clear answer!
Long Jiaojiao was naturally unafraid and whispered her plan in his ear.
Xuanyuan Yu's eyes grew brighter as he listened, his dark eyes shifting from confusion to excitement, like a cheetah that had found its prey.
After explaining the plan, Long Jiaojiao handed a small black jar to Xuanyuan Yu.
Xuanyuan Yu stared intently at the small black jar, then reached out and solemnly took it as if holding a crown.
Just as Xuanyuan Yu was about to open the small black jar, Long Jiaojiao stopped him, saying, "If you miss, then open it. This worm is different from the one you just ate. This one is incurable."
Xuanyuan Yu was so frightened that he stopped what he was doing, and he was so uneasy holding the small black jar that he felt like he was holding a hot potato.
"I have already taught you the method of using this Gu worm. Whether you succeed or not depends on yourself." After saying this, Long Jiaojiao got up to leave.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Xuan Yuan Yu hurriedly asked him, "Is the child in Su Xue Ning's belly really mine?"
Seeing that he was still struggling with this issue, Long Jiaojiao gave a mocking smile: "What do you think?"
Xuanyuan Yu's expression changed, and he frowned, clearly dissatisfied with the answer.
"Don't forget our agreement. Rest assured, the poison in your body will have no effect on you until you break your promise."
After saying that, Long Jiaojiao swaggered out.
As soon as Long Jiaojiao left Jingfeng Palace, she was caught red-handed by Xuanyuan Zhan.
Enemies are especially hostile when they meet!
Upon seeing Long Jiaojiao, Xuanyuan Zhan drew his sword: "Hand over what you stole!"
Seeing that he still dared to point his sword at her, Long Jiaojiao instantly flew into a rage.
That damned man tricked her into taking the mother Gu, and she hasn't settled that score with him yet.
Long Jiaojiao stared at Xuan Yuanzhan with a wicked smile: "The item is on me, the Holy Maiden. Come and get it yourself if you want it!"
Xuanyuan Zhan narrowed his eyes in disgust and directly thrust his sword at Long Jiaojiao.
Now that the mother Gu is no longer in her body, he has no reason to spare her life!
Long Jiaojiao was not afraid at all. He grabbed the spiked whip at his waist, raised it into the air, and charged towards Xuan Yuanzhan.
The two started fighting right at the entrance of Jingfeng Palace.
One wielded a sword, the other a whip; neither gave way to the other. At this moment, both seemed to have no scruples and were using their full strength.
A series of loud bangs not only damaged the walls of Jingfeng Palace, but also attracted the attention of many palace servants.
"Is it the Holy King and that Holy Maiden from Southern Xinjiang?"
"Wasn't it said that the Holy Maiden of the Southern Frontier was in love with our Holy King? Why are they fighting now?"
"I heard that the two almost got into a fight in the Imperial Garden a few days ago, and now they've actually started fighting."
"It's barely dawn, and these two are already fighting. Don't you find that strange?" A young eunuch's ambiguous tone instantly sparked all sorts of speculation among the crowd.
"Don't talk nonsense. The Holy King only loves the Holy Queen. How could he have any relationship with this Holy Maiden from Southern Xinjiang?"
"That's right, don't you even look at where this is? This is the Third Prince's Jingfeng Palace. I just saw this Southern Frontier Saintess come out of Jingfeng Palace with my own eyes."
"I've seen her at Jingfeng Palace several times before, I guess she's having an affair with the Third Prince."
"This woman really does say she likes the Holy King while also trying to seduce the Third Prince. No wonder people say she has a messy love life!"
After exchanging over a hundred blows with Long Jiaojiao, Xuanyuan Zhan finally noticed something was different. His expression darkened slightly as he asked, "Has your skill improved again?"
This woman's martial arts skills were clearly much stronger than when he fought her last time.
"Hahahaha..." Upon hearing this, Long Jiaojiao burst into a triumphant and arrogant laugh: "This is all thanks to you! If it weren't for that crazy battle last night, how could this Holy Maiden have broken through to the eighth level of the Carefree Divine Art!"
Originally, she wanted to use Xuan Yuanzhan to break through the seventh level of the Free and Unfettered Divine Skill, but Xuan Yuanzhan didn't take the bait, so she set her sights on Xuan Yuanyu instead.
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Yu was also useless. His supposed Yang Body was fake and of little use to her cultivation of the Free and Unfettered Divine Art.
It wasn't until she was poisoned by the Drunken Hehuan that she discovered a new world. It turned out that the Drunken Hehuan could help her cultivate the Carefree Divine Skill. Since the Drunken Hehuan was useful, all the men in the world could be used by her. So why did she need Xuan Yuanzhan?
Xuan Yuanzhan was also stunned, never expecting that Long Jiaojiao would increase his power because of those beggars.
Long Jiaojiao might not have been his match before, but now that her power has greatly increased, he really can't defeat her in a short time!
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, Xuanyuan Yu heard from his subordinates that there was commotion outside and rushed over.
Upon seeing Xuan Yuanzhan, Xuan Yuanyu's eyes suddenly reddened: "Xuan Yuanzhan, you entered the palace with a sword, are you planning a rebellion?"
Xuanyuan Zhan ignored him completely, and stared at Long Jiaojiao, saying, "Your secret guards are guests in my Holy King's Mansion. If you want your secret guards back, you'll have to exchange them for what you stole."
After Xuan Yuanzhan finished speaking, he glanced at Xuan Yuanyu and said, "I know her better than you do. If you don't want to harm yourself and others, stay away from her!"
Without giving Xuan Yuan Yu time to react, Xuan Yuan Zhan turned and left.
