Chapter 23 Seeing the True Meaning: He was staring at me, licking me, and entangled with me...
Gu Congxing opened his eyes wide in shock. Just as he was about to speak, he felt a sudden pain in his neck.
——Zhong Ming actually bit his neck!
"Let me go!"
At this time, scarlet blood was flowing down the white and slender neck, winding down and flowing into the depths of the robe.
But Zhong Ming seemed to have held the food in his mouth. Not only did he not let go of the food, but he also stuck out his tongue and licked it.
The moist and hot touch persistently covered the skin, licking and sucking the newly overflowed blood, making a "chirp" sound.
"Hey!! Zhong Ming!"
That place felt itchy and painful, with an indescribable numbness that made him feel hot all over.
Gu Congxing was completely furious. He grabbed Zhong Ming's hair and pulled his head back.
Zhong Ming was pulled up by him, staring at him with his golden vertical pupils, and licking the blood remaining on his lips.
"Brother...it's delicious."
There was no clarity in those pupils, but the light in their eyes became more intense.
Gu Congxing felt a chill in his heart, as if he had become the prey targeted by a hunter.
"Zhong Ming! Wake up!"
Gu Congxing held his face with both hands, approached his cheek, and looked closely into those golden pupils.
"Do you still know who you are?! You are my junior apprentice, a disciple of Master Zhuoguang! Not a monster that eats human flesh!"
He almost roared angrily: "Don't forget who you are!"
The face stained with blood and tears froze for a moment, and its brows furrowed slightly.
"I am... Zhong Ming."
He blinked, and Gu Congxing's face was reflected in his eyes.
"You are... Senior Brother."
"——My, senior brother."
Gu Congxing was delighted: "Junior brother!"
He was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when the thick black tail wrapped around his waist, tightly binding him and Zhong Ming's bodies in the water together!
Furthermore, several blood-red vines had sprouted from the soil near the hot spring. As if possessed by consciousness, they emerged from the ground one by one, reaching out towards the two people in the water.
Gu Congxing took a closer look and was shocked.
That turned out to be dragon blood vine!
Legend has it that this strange vine, which can only grow when nourished by dragon blood, can communicate with its owner and possesses extremely terrifying flexibility and lethality.
Because it could attack and kill enemies regardless of their cultivation level, it was once considered a heavenly-level offensive weapon. However, because dragon blood had long since disappeared, it was only considered a legendary item in ancient books.
Dragon blood... Could it be that Junior Brother's appearance is due to the awakening of his dragon bloodline?!
Gu Congxing looked at Zhong Ming's appearance in front of him carefully again. The black scales and hard horns were indeed the characteristics of the dragon clan.
However, the dragon race has clearly become extinct long ago!
Even the current Demon Lord, who was more powerful than ten thousand people in the Northern Territory, was only of the bloodline of the Demonic Dragon. Moreover, if he remembered correctly, the demons highly respected the dragon totem, and they called the ancient dragon clan...
Demon!
Gu Congxing's mind suddenly became clear. His arms were grabbed by the dragon blood vines and rubbed against his body little by little, but he seemed unaware. His eyes became brighter because of the shock in his heart.
So that's how it is! No wonder! No wonder that damned character name in the system described Junior Brother as "fate is hard to defy"!
With such bloodline, how can one not become a demon? How can one defy fate and change destiny?
"System! Get out here!"
The dragon blood vine became more and more entangled, and some of it had already rubbed into Gu Congxing's sleeves and rolled up the inside of his legs. His breathing became a little rapid, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the stone slab emerging from the air.
[Ding! This seems to be the first time the host summoned me!]
"You still have the nerve to give it to me!" Gu Congxing was so angry at this cute system that he almost vomited blood. "You said I can save my junior brother, but he was born with the blood of the Heavenly Demon! There is no solution at all!"
"You've been trying to trick me from the beginning!"
[How could that be, host? I won't cheat you.]
[Although Zhong Ming does have the blood of the Heavenly Demon, this does not mean that he will always be in this form after awakening.]
Gu Congxing's eyes lit up: "You mean, Junior Brother still has a chance to recover?"
[That's right! As long as he successfully passes the bloodline awakening period, Zhong Ming will be able to return to his original state.]
"So what should I do?"
The stone slab floating in the air was gleaming with silver light, as if it was blocked and interrupted, and in the end only one word was condensed.
【Blood. 】
Gu Congxing frowned: "System?"
But the system no longer responded.
Is there something wrong?
Although Gu Congxing was puzzled, he could roughly infer the meaning of that word from the system.
The junior brother came back to his senses just now because he drank his blood.
In this case, it seems that the solution lies in blood flow!
Gu Congxing's eyes became fierce, and he suddenly summoned the Whale Slashing Sword and slashed it across his palm -
In an instant, blood gushed out.
Zhong Ming saw his movements. Although he was almost unconscious, he still frowned fiercely.
A low growl-like sound came from his throat, and a vine wrapped around the hilt of the Whale-Slaying Sword, inserting it back into the scabbard.
"Junior Brother..."
Seeing him like this, Gu Congxing paused, then placed her hand on his lips more firmly.
"Junior brother, drink!"
Zhong Ming pursed his lips and even looked away, his expression struggling and distressed.
Gu Congxing gritted her teeth and pressed her palm directly on his lips!
Zhong Ming's pupils shrank, the tip of his nose moved, and the tip of his tongue gently extended -
Little by little, I began to savor the person in front of me.
At the same time, the blood vines seemed to sense their owner's emotions and slowly slid on Gu Congxing's body.
The vines mixed with spring water became even more slippery. They silently squeezed into Gu Congxing's clothes, rubbed in through the lapels, and moved down in the depression of the collarbone.
“Hmm…”
Gu Congxing has now confirmed that these dragon blood vines are the culprits of the strange dream, but he is now held tightly by Zhong Ming, with one hand in his palm, and he cannot move at all.
It's like a sacrifice on the devil's chopping block.
One vine actually slipped into his underwear, sliding from the bottom to the top of his waist. Another vine circled up from the inside of his thigh, gradually approaching the highest point...
Their movements were light and slow, and there was a sense of caution in them.
Zhong Ming in front of him didn't blink, and Gu Congxing's face was completely reflected in his golden pupils.
——Just like this, he stared at me, licked me, and entangled me.
Gu Congxing had an illusion that his gentle tongue was caressing not only his palms, but also the back of his hands, thighs, and waist.
It seems like my whole body is falling.
“Hmm…”
The protrusion at the end of the vine pressed against a certain spot in his clothes, and the pleasure in his dream came over him again, and he couldn't help but let out a soft moan.
Zhong Ming's pupils shrank, emitting an even more bewildering light.
"No, you... um..."
The flow of blood and the trembling pleasure overwhelmed him, and Gu Congxing was about to fall into this bloody and strange situation.
But his strong willpower came into play at this moment, and he bit his lips hard to prevent himself from making any ear-scalding sound.
The other hand touched Zhong Ming's back and began to transmit spiritual power to him.
Even if we can use blood to awaken his mind, we cannot ignore his running spiritual power, otherwise he might go astray.
The soft and nimble vines squirmed wildly, causing the person inside to tremble slightly.
What echoed in his ears was the sticky sound of water. As time passed, Gu Congxing's consciousness began to become a little drowsy.
How much time has passed?
"Chirp." The palm of my hand seemed to be pecked lightly, and then tightly grasped by a hand covered with black scales.
Gu Congxing didn't realize that he bit his lips too hard, and a little blood had seeped out from the corner of his lips.
The dark golden vertical pupils blinked, and his gaze was fixed on the vermilion.
——That is the most delicious delicacy in the world.
The young man with dragon horns lowered his eyelids and approached the red mark reverently.
In a state of consciousness close to chaos, Gu Congxing felt something warm and soft rubbing against him, licking away the blood beads bit by bit and prying open his teeth.
“Senior Brother…”
"My, senior brother."
Amidst the mumbling that sounded like a curse, Gu Congxing's vision gradually darkened.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the third main mission: Helping Zhong Ming survive the bloodline awakening period!]
[Results are being settled...]
Familiar inorganic words flashed in his ears again, and Gu Congxing's consciousness fell into complete darkness.
***
When he woke up again, Gu Congxing found himself in his own residence.
He lay on the bed, all he could see was the pure white gauze curtains swaying in the wind.
He stretched out his hands, and the cracks on the palms had completely healed, and even the wounds were almost gone.
"system."
[Ding! Host!]
Gu Congxing touched his neck. There was no blood there, but there was a light bite mark.
He took out the ointment and covered it with it. The cool touch made his mind clearer, and he thought of the system settlement words he heard before he fell into a coma.
"How are the redemption value and points now?"
[Ding! Current host redemption value 30%, points 280!]
Gu Congxing raised the corner of his lips slightly, but then he thought of something and asked, "Who brought me back?"
【It’s the recovered Zhong Ming! 】
It is true.
Gu Congxing could almost imagine his junior brother's panic when he regained consciousness and saw him bleeding and fainting.
He must be sad...
But no matter what, it's good that he recovered.
His mind was racing with thoughts as he sat up straight, his eyes fixed on the stone slab in the air again.
"System, you really hid a lot of things from me."
The silver light on the slate shifted, but no characters appeared. It reminded me of the evasive gaze of humans.
"If you have more than 200 points, you can unlock the permission to read the original text, right?"
"System, I want to enable this permission."
[Ding! The host's points have reached the standard, but...]
[The original text of "Feng Ming" is the host's complete perspective of the truth of the previous life. Host, are you sure you want to enable this permission?]
For some reason, the system's confirmation suddenly reminded Gu Congxing of Zhili's questioning of Xiang Huang in the dream array.
The painful truth, or the illusion of happiness?
Gu Congxing lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then looked at the system again with a determined look.
"I confirm the activation."
