Chapter 40 Yanghua Cloud Sea (Twenty-Seven)
With Jiang Gu holding Wei Feng hostage, the two people opposite him dared not make a move, after all, he had almost snapped Wei Feng's neck.
In the end, the woman still stood in front of the formation.
Wei Feng stared intently at her back, suddenly feeling that she looked familiar. He must have seen her somewhere before, but before he could recall the specific scene, the dragon-locking chain wrapped around him suddenly split in two and went straight into the woman's arm.
The dragon-locking chains bound her primordial spirit, causing indescribable pain. The woman's face turned deathly pale, she swayed twice, clutched her chest, spat out two mouthfuls of foul blood, and knelt on the ground.
"Zhou Huaiming! What are you doing!" Wei Feng shouted angrily.
Jiang Gu looked at the woman coldly, "If you dare to play any tricks, I can make your soul disappear without even leaving the secret realm."
The woman raised her head and stared coldly at him. "So you're from the Zhou family."
Jiang Gu acted convincingly, saying, "It's a pity you found out too late."
"Zhou Huaiming!" Wei Feng struggled violently in his arms. "You are despicable and shameless!"
Jiang Gu asked in bewilderment, "If I pluck your wings, you'll act like you're dying, but if she plucks your wings, you'll do it willingly?"
Wei Feng choked on his words, “But she…”
"If you utter another word, I'll kill her right now." A hint of impatience flashed in Jiang Gu's eyes. "Have I spoiled you too much?"
Wei Feng suddenly remembered just how ruthless the person behind him was. It was only because the person had shown him mercy these past few times that he had developed the illusion that he could disobey. However, he still couldn't bear to watch the person who resembled his mother be in danger. He said in a trembling voice, "Don't kill her. As long as you don't kill her, I will give you anything you want."
Jiang Gu frowned slightly.
How could he have raised such an utterly stupid piece of trash?
The woman quickly deciphered most of the magic arrays, then turned to Jiang Gu with a pale face, saying, "This last array can only be deciphered by someone related to Wei Mingzhou."
Wei Feng shifted uncomfortably.
Jiang Gu glanced at her, but instead of forcing Wei Feng forward, he tightened his grip on the dragon-locking chain and pushed Wei Feng forward, saying, "Go over there and unlock it."
Wei Feng stumbled as he was pushed, his face contorted in pain.
That old pervert is clearly getting revenge on him!
Seeing that Jiang Gu didn't come over, the woman paused slightly, stepped aside to make room for Wei Feng, and said, "You just need to activate the blood pact within you—right now, quickly regain control of the Dragon-Locking Chains!"
Wei Feng reacted quickly, activating the blood pact within his body to fight Jiang Gu for control of the Dragon-Locking Chain. Both of them had lost their spiritual power, so it was just a contest of who could react faster. At the critical moment, the woman and Qing Du pounced on Jiang Gu at the same time.
Unexpectedly, even after losing his cultivation, Jiang Gu's speed was still ridiculously fast. Even Qing Du, who was a merman, couldn't touch the hem of his clothes before he had already flashed behind Wei Feng like a ghost, pierced his heart, directly deciphered the last array, and grabbed the crimson Yuan Dan inside.
Wei Feng tried to bind him with the Dragon-Locking Chain, but Jiang Gu snapped his wrist in the next instant. He grabbed the chain and Wei Feng, and in a few leaps, they disappeared from Qing Du and the woman's sight.
The woman's primordial spirit was damaged, and her expression grew increasingly grim. "He's actually a body cultivator?"
However, this person's physique was completely different from the massive bodies of ordinary body cultivators. But if it wasn't body cultivation, how could he move so fast without spiritual power? This was simply inexplicable.
If it were a single cultivator, and the opponent was unaffected by spiritual power under these circumstances, neither of them combined would have a chance of winning.
Qingdu was a merman and didn't know much about the different types of human cultivators. He just frowned and said, "In here, the two of us can't beat him."
The woman paused for a moment, then said, "You're right. We might still have a chance of winning if we go out of the Cloud Sea. But now that he has taken the Yuan Dan, if it is really used on that child... we can only say it is fate."
“But, young master, it’s dangerous.” Qingdu saw her intention to retreat.
The woman said, "We can't risk our lives for him. Besides, Zhou Huaiming is clearly still useful. Let's go out first and then make plans."
Qingdu was still hesitant, but the woman's expression hardened. "Hesitation will only lead to trouble. If you want to live, come with me!"
The tall merman stared at her blankly for a long time before finally following her.
——
Jiang Gu lifted Wei Feng and propelled him forward at high speed. This kind of jumping based solely on physical strength was completely different from flying on a sword. A cool breeze rushed towards him, and he landed lightly and then jumped up again. Moreover, the arm that Jiang Gu was holding was trembling slightly. Wei Feng stared at him nervously, afraid that he might accidentally drop him.
After what seemed like the umpteenth time he landed, Jiang Gu released him.
Wei Feng seized the opportunity to try to re-bind his primordial spirit with a dragon-locking chain, but Jiang Gu was one step ahead of him and gained control of the chain, binding his primordial spirit tightly.
Jiang Gu put a pill into his mouth, "Your blood pact has been sealed by me, don't waste your energy anymore."
Wei Feng stared at him, trying to activate the blood pact, but as expected, there was no response.
“This dragon-locking chain is connected to my soul. If I die, you won’t survive either.” Jiang Gu narrowed his eyes. “You’d better not let those two find us.”
"What do you mean?" Wei Feng was confused by what he said. "What do you mean I don't want to—hey!?"
Before he could finish his question, the person standing in front of him suddenly collapsed towards him.
Wei Feng instinctively reached out and caught him, staggering back a step from the weight. He said in a panic, "You pervert, what kind of trick are you playing now? Hey!"
However, the person lying on him did not respond at all, only a faint, almost non-existent breath and sticky bloodstains all over his body.
Wei Feng's wrist, which had been broken, was throbbing with pain. In a fit of anger, he wanted to throw the person off him, but after smelling the other's scent, he couldn't help but hug him even tighter. When he came to his senses, his face turned pale and then red. He gripped Jiang Gu's clothes with his fingers and tightened his grip, but in the end, he didn't let go.
He's currently controlling the Dragon Chains; if he dies, I certainly won't survive either.
Thinking this, Wei Feng tried his best to ignore the strangeness caused by the lingering aura, gritted his teeth and dragged the person into an inconspicuous house next door.
Although the house was inconspicuous, it was no ordinary thing that could be taken into the Purple Mansion by a powerful figure like Wei Mingzhou. As soon as he entered the house, Wei Feng felt a surge of spiritual energy, which was completely different from the situation outside where there was no spiritual energy. However, the meridians in his body had been sealed by the old pervert, and now he could only stare blankly and could not use them.
Enraged, he threw the man onto the bed and raised his foot to kick him, but the young man on the bed suddenly coughed twice, and blood gushed from his nose and the corner of his mouth.
Wei Feng felt a chill run down his spine at the horrifying scene. After watching warily for a while, he reached out and poked Zhou Huaiming's shoulder. "Hey, Zhou Huaiming? You pervert? You old bastard?"
The person lying on the bed was motionless, with a large section of their chest cavity sunken in, revealing the outline of their ribs, which rose and fell slightly beneath their black robes.
Wei Feng felt extremely uncomfortable looking at it and couldn't help but wipe his face, only to forget that his hands were also covered in the man's blood, and he was choked by the smell of blood.
Within his sea of consciousness, Jiang Gu's primordial spirit was sitting cross-legged in the center, healing his injuries.
Although he only had brief contact with that woman, he deduced from her method of breaking the formation and the timing of her instigating Wei Feng that she was extremely cautious by nature. People with this kind of personality usually wouldn't fight to the death unless they were forced into a desperate situation, and Qing Du was clearly following her orders.
So he decided to take a risky gamble, betting that the woman wouldn't dare to chase after him.
As long as he demonstrates sufficient strength.
However, he paid a price for this. He was not a true body cultivator, but his physique was stronger than that of ordinary cultivators. Moreover, he was already seriously injured and his primordial spirit was damaged by the Dragon Locking Chain. He was already at his limit to carry Wei Feng here.
However, his judgment was correct; this place was particularly rich in spiritual energy, making it perfect for healing.
Wei Feng's primordial spirit bore his mark, and with his meridians sealed and controlled by the Dragon-Locking Chain, he wasn't worried that this fool would seek his own death by attacking him. Therefore, he withdrew his released primordial spirit and focused on healing his injuries.
Inside the room, Wei Feng did not seek his own death, but after some hesitation, he did indeed take action against Jiang Gu.
He boldly removed Jiang Gu's outer garment.
The black outer robe was removed, revealing a white inner garment stained with blood, and the shape of the bones became more and more obvious. Wei Feng frowned and helped him take off the inner garment, and was then shocked by the terrible state of his body.
The old pervert's upper body was mostly just bones, with only his arms, shoulders, and abdomen still covered in some flesh, but they were so tattered that it was better if he hadn't been there at all.
This doesn't look like a human being at all.
"Damn it, could this be a ghost cultivator?" Wei Feng was startled by his own guess. He mustered his courage and reached for Jiang Gu's neck. After feeling the other's pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness."
Just as he was about to pull his hand back, it was tightly gripped by another hand.
Wei Feng broke out in a cold sweat, but Jiang Gu hesitated and didn't make any other move. He nervously swallowed and said, "I... I didn't mean to harm you. My primordial spirit is being controlled by you, so I dare not do anything. I just wanted to help you heal your injuries."
He attended classes at Touchun Peak for a while and learned some methods of healing injuries.
The old pervert probably understood, and the grip on his wrist gradually loosened, causing him to fall onto the soft bedding.
His pale skin stood out starkly against the red fabric… Wei Feng awkwardly looked away, angrily pulling out a handful of high-grade pills from his storage bag.
This is insane!
Wake up, Wei Feng! This is your mortal enemy!
He picked and chose, selecting some high-grade Bone-Regenerating Pills and Tonic Pills, intending to stuff them into Jiang Gu's mouth. However, Jiang Gu kept his mouth tightly shut, and the pills wouldn't go in. Wei Feng gritted his teeth, forcefully pinching Jiang Gu's chin to open his mouth and shoving the pills in.
Soon, five deep red finger marks were left on that pale face.
Wei Feng withdrew his hand somewhat guiltily, his fingertips accidentally brushing against his lips, the strange sensation making him pause in surprise.
Soft and warm.
This is completely inconsistent with the ruthless and perverted style of this old man.
He quickly withdrew his hand and awkwardly used clean cloth to bandage Jiang Gu's grotesque upper body. He was already panting heavily after doing all this. He struggled to help the heavy man lie down, and when he caught a glimpse of the pervert's lips out of the corner of his eye, he reached out his hand again as if possessed.
I carefully and gently rubbed it twice.
It's still soft.
It felt slightly hot.
The unconscious man showed no reaction. Wei Feng's courage grew. On one hand, he had narrowly escaped death at the man's hands several times and had suffered greatly at his hands; he deeply loathed this old pervert. On the other hand… he had to admit that the man's aura constantly attracted him, beckoning him to spread his wings and tightly envelop him, to wrap his legs with his mermaid tail, and then—
So what happens next?
Wei Feng was slightly dizzy from the pleasant scent. Before he could figure out what to do, he leaned in and placed his thumb on her soft lips, greedily absorbing her warmth.
Her pale lips were rubbed until they were tingled with a deep red.
That's not enough, far from enough.
Such a vibrant color must smell even better than his own scent. He slowly released his grip, leaned closer, and tried to smell it more clearly.
The thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and the unconscious person suddenly opened their eyes.
Wei Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he sat up abruptly as if he had been scalded, staring at him with horrified eyes.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Gu looked at him coldly.
Perhaps he was truly bewitched, for Wei Feng looked at his long, narrow, indifferent eyes and his unchanging face, and surprisingly found them somewhat...attractive.
"I...I didn't do anything! I was saving you!" He was all bark and no bite, and because he felt guilty, he immediately put the hand that had been causing trouble behind his back, and said fiercely, "Don't be ungrateful!"
Jiang Gu frowned slightly. He had just realized that something was wrong with his body and had released his primordial spirit to check, but he only saw Wei Feng's panicked face.
He glanced at his bandaged upper body, his expression growing even colder. "Don't do anything unnecessary."
"I should just let you fend for yourself!" Wei Feng glared at him, the hand behind his back clenching even tighter.
Jiang Gu sneered, "Then you won't survive either."
Wei Feng's mind was completely blank at this moment. He was too close to Jiang Gu and almost couldn't control himself and pounced on him. He forced himself to take two steps back.
Jiang Gu assumed he was scared and ordered, "Stand by my side and protect me."
"Got it!" Wei Feng replied gruffly.
Jiang Gu then withdrew his primordial spirit and returned to his sea of consciousness to heal his injuries.
Seeing him close his eyes again, Wei Feng slowly slumped his shoulders, plopped down on the footstool, and stared blankly at the still blood-tinged lips.
It must be because his soul was controlled by this old pervert!
He must be crazy to do something so absurd!
