The 226th Hidden Sect Boss's Little Assistant (Sixty-Eight)
The crazed Pan Feng was clearly completely different from the Pan Feng who had said he would let him leave during the day; now he looked like he wanted to kill him.
Gu Yanjing was coldly dragged up the steps by Pan Feng. His back ached from the steps. He struggled to break free from Pan Feng's grasp, but Pan Feng ruthlessly broke his wrist.
A trail of blood was left on the ground.
Shao* was carelessly thrown to the ground by Pan Feng. He tried to get up, but he collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
Pan Feng, her eyes bloodshot, pinned Gu Yanjing's wrist to the ground, then slashed their palms before clasping each other's hands.
Gu Yan was jolted awake by the pain. He opened his eyes groggily and immediately saw Pan Feng standing in front of him.
Pan Feng: "Did you have a nightmare?"
Gu Yan shrank back in shock, suppressing his trembling: "Move away, don't block my sunlight."
Pan Feng obediently moved to the side and tossed a blade of grass to the ground: "Eat some grass."
Gu Yan glanced at it and saw that it was a miraculous herb that could heal injuries. Without being coy, he wiped the soil off with his hand, pinched off the root, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Swallow it whole.
Pan Feng said disdainfully, "What a waste."
What a waste of money! Who eats their precious herb like this?
"Is there any meat? I'm hungry." Gu Yanjing seemed not to hear him, swallowed the grass, and spoke again.
"You're such a grown-up, why are you still sponging off your parents? If you want food, get up and find it yourself." Pan Feng was even more disgusted.
If he weren't an only child, he would have killed him.
"I don't want to. I'm injured. You should let me gnaw on you. After all, you're my biological father." Gu Yanjing chuckled and lay on the ground, refusing to move.
Pan Feng couldn't hold back, kicked Gu Yanjing, and turned to leave.
After a while, they returned carrying a piece of bloody, fleshy meat.
"Eat." Pan Feng placed the meat in front of Gu Yanjing, her face indifferent.
"You're eating raw meat?" Gu Yanjing jumped up when he saw the raw meat thrown in front of him.
"Yeah, so what if it's raw meat? Can't we eat it? If you're so capable, why don't you cook it properly?" Pan Feng rolled her eyes, glanced at Gu Yanjing's expression, and complained, "So fussy and pretentious."
"You're the one who's sick, eating raw meat. You've been through so much and you can't even cook a meal. You're useless." Gu Yan frowned and took two steps back.
"If you're so good, then you do it," Pan Feng sneered.
So, to show that he could do it, Gu Yanjing immediately washed the meat and started a fire.
Ten minutes later, Pan Feng looked at the piece of meat that had turned into charcoal on the Vermilion Bird Fire and mocked it with great sarcasm.
"Is this what you call 'good'?"
Gu Yanjing shoved the meat directly into the fire to destroy the evidence.
"You didn't see anything."
"Son, you must be brave enough to face the facts," Pan Feng continued, not letting him off the hook.
Gu Yanjing kicked the fire directly at Pan Feng's face, causing sparks to fly and bend Pan Feng's hair. Pan Feng was so angry that she almost beat Gu Yanjing to death.
Pan Feng, fearing that Gu Yanjing might be startled, eventually found a bunch of fruit for him and asked, "Would you like to go inside the main hall to rest?"
Gu Yan was startled when he heard the sound of the main hall. He trembled and strongly resisted, saying, "I won't go."
Pan Feng paused for a moment: "I didn't do it on purpose, and the primordial backlash you suffered didn't all come from me."
Half of it was injected into the Vermilion Bird's egg by another person before the Vermilion Bird was born, which is why the Vermilion Bird's personality is now affected by the resentment of the primordial world, making it paranoid and violent.
"I know." But what does knowing have to do with hating the person in front of me?
"That's enough." Pan Feng said nothing more and left directly.
Gu Yanjing held the fruit, ate it, and then closed his eyes to rest.
The wounds on his body were slowly healing, but they were both painful and itchy, making it impossible for Gu Yanjing to calm down.
Pan Feng was still in the main hall, lost in thought. Last night she seemed like she had lost her soul, but today she acted as if nothing had happened.
What a pretentious act.
He couldn't calm down, so he stood up and wandered around.
This place was specially made by Zulong for Panfeng. At the time, it was uncertain how long Panfeng would be imprisoned, so naturally, it was made as large as possible.
Furthermore, there are many living creatures inside, and the scenery is beautiful, all in a prehistoric style, making it look very magnificent.
Gu Yanjing kicked away a fat duck that was leaning towards him, and after thinking for a moment, he stomped on the duck's neck and broke it.
Maybe I should try cooking again. I really want to eat meat, especially roast duck.
And so, smoke rose again from the tranquil meadow.
Pan Feng stood at the highest point of the main hall, watching Gu Yanjing's back from afar.
Birds probably like to stand in high places, and the pheasant also likes to be in high places.
Gu Yan was so shocked that he didn't get to eat roast duck that night. After calmly throwing the last duck into the fire to destroy the evidence, he got up and stretched.
The herb Pan Feng gave him was very effective; within a day, his external injuries had almost completely healed.
He found some fruit, ate his fill, and then returned to the outside of the main hall.
Pan Feng was already waiting in the same spot.
"I'll send you out tomorrow," Pan Feng said calmly as she watched Gu Yanjing return.
The method to escape this secret is actually not difficult, and there are two conditions.
One requirement is that there need to be two people in this secret realm.
The other requirement is that one person in the secret realm must voluntarily assist the other person in leaving.
The person who provided assistance will remain in the secret realm.
Unless the relationship is extremely close, no one would voluntarily help the other leave the secret realm.
Gu Yan was surprised to hear this and instead looked at Pan Feng with great vigilance: "This is the third time you've said this to me."
The first time Pan Feng said these words, he captured him in the palace that very night, not only infusing the backlash of the primordial world into his body, but also activating the sealed backlash within him.
Three whole times*.
He was trapped in a nightmare of backlash in the secret realm for three hours before finally waking up.
Pan Feng told him a second time that she would see him off.
He didn't believe it and got into a fight with Pan Feng.
Pan Feng, mindful of him, did not use her full strength, resulting in a draw between her and Gu Yanjing.
During the night shift, Gu Yanjing wanted to kill Pan Feng, but was stopped by Zu Long.
Pan Feng had promised to see him off, but in the end, she still wanted to take the opportunity to leave him in the secret realm and leave herself.
Fortunately, Gu Yanjing had a backup plan, leaving Pan Feng there before leaving himself.
Pan Feng chuckled: "This time it's for real, I'm not lying to you."
Gu Yan scoffed, "Say that again with your hand on your heart."
Gu Yan was shocked that he would be a fool to believe Pan Feng again.
"I'm really sending you off, my good son. Remember to come back and visit your old father whenever you have time." Pan Feng stepped forward and touched Gu Yan's messy hair.
As a result, I touched a hand covered in scabs.
Withdrawing her hand in disgust: "Son, it's time to wash your hair."
Gu Yanjing quickly took two steps back and was about to leave without saying a word.
"Son, wait a minute." Pan Feng suddenly called out to Gu Yanjing.
Gu Yan turned around in surprise: "Is there anything else?"
Pan Feng smiled. Qing*'s appearance was very handsome, somewhat similar to Gu Yanjing. However, his eyebrows and eyes were more eerie than Gu Yanjing's stunning beauty.
Give me your hand.
"You're sick." Gu Yan was shocked and ignored him, and was about to leave.
Pan Feng, however, did not let him go. She grabbed Gu Yanjing's hand and slashed their palms, connecting their blood vessels.
Gu Yan's expression changed. When the nightmare of being forcibly infused with the backlash of the Primordial Chaos struck again, he instinctively tried to struggle, but Pan Feng held him tightly.
However, the nightmare did not return; instead, Pan Feng's expression grew increasingly grim.
Gu Yan was somewhat stunned: "What are you doing? You took back the backlash?"
This was his long-cherished wish, but he never expected that Pan Feng would take back the backlash on her own initiative.
"Silly son, your old father has harmed you so much, how could I continue to harm you?" Pan Feng smiled palely, and touched the young man's hair again, his hand still covered in scabs.
"It's time to wash your hair, son."
Gu Yanjing didn't speak, biting her lip tightly.
"Son, I forgot to ask, what's your name? It's not Zhuque, it's your name." Come to think of it, even he, the father, didn't know his son's name.
When he was born, he gave the egg a nickname: Egg.
However, this name obviously cannot be revealed now, otherwise, my son would probably explode.
Gu Yanjing still refused to speak. Half an hour later, Pan Feng released Gu Yanjing's hand, collapsed to the ground, and gasped for breath.
Gu Yanjing, on the contrary, seemed to be in good spirits.
The backlash that had been suppressed deep within his divine veins finally dissipated, and he felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
Shao looked at his old father on the ground, and without saying a word, picked up Pan Feng and carried him on his back.
"Hey son, where are you taking me? Your old father lives in the biggest room in the main hall."
Pan Feng, who was being carried on his back, looked at Shao's messy back of his head and couldn't help but laugh like a fool.
Smug and triumphant.
Gu Yanjing paused on the steps leading to the main hall, silently carried Pan Feng into the hall, placed her on the bed, and even patiently covered her with a blanket.
"Gu Yanjing." The young man looked at his obedient father, who was covered with a blanket, and suddenly spoke.
"Huh?" Pan Feng didn't react.
Only when watching Shao's departing figure did I realize that this was my son's name.
Pan Feng suddenly sat up: "Yan Jing."
Gu Yanjing didn't respond and left without looking back.
Pan Feng glanced at the retreating figure and pouted, "You unfilial son, you don't listen to your old father at all." But secretly, she was delighted.
Gu Yanjing thought: ...Who wants a son of a bitch like you? You're utterly useless and all you do is screw over your son.
Pan Feng calmly woke Gu Yanjing, fed him some fruit, and ate with him.
Gu Yanjing lost her appetite after eating.
It's a bit off-putting.
After finishing their meal, Pan Feng stood up and said to Gu Yanjing, "Let's go, let's go out."
Gu Yan was surprised and refused, only saying, "I was able to leave here before, and I can do it again this time."
Pan Feng shrugged, indicating that she didn't care, as if she really didn't care.
The two arrived at the exit of the secret realm and worked together to open it.
Pan Feng calmly looked at the exit, took a step back, and said to Gu Yanjing, "Let's go, son. Remember to come home often."
Gu Yanjing's lips twitched, feeling that there was something he hadn't noticed.
"Are you really not leaving?"
“I’m not leaving, you go first.” Pan Feng shook his head, standing still, like an old father watching his son set sail.
Gu Yan was shocked: ...You're crazy.
He was being polite to Pan Feng, and seeing that Pan Feng really didn't make any move, he simply stepped out of the secret realm.
Meanwhile, outside, Lu Lingjun had already broken free from Gu Yanjing's seal. After examining the secret realm and understanding its mechanics, he immediately began to destroy it.
Since we can't be sure that the person who comes out is Gu Yanjing, then let's destroy this secret realm so that Gu Yanjing can definitely come out.
As for why he didn't go in to rescue people himself?
What if we can't destroy the secret realm from inside?
It's safer to stay outside.
However, just as Lu Lingjun was about to finish setting up the formation, he saw a person emerge from the exit of the secret realm.
He was dressed in a disheveled blue robe, his face was filthy, and he looked very pitiful.
"Lu Jiaojiao?" Lu Lingjun was taken aback.
Gu Yanjing narrowed his eyes, looking at Lu Lingjun who was squatting on the ground in front of him, somewhat disregarding his image. For a moment, he almost couldn't recognize whether this was the mortal who was now the leader of the Phoenix Clan.
After all, when he rushed back, the mortal he had killed looked at him in the same way, his dim eyes suddenly shining with starlight, frighteningly bright.
"Lu Jiaojiao, you're back."
The mortal, swallowing blood, forced a smile at him.
That's what he said; he seemed not to speak, unable to utter a single word.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're alright, I can finally close my eyes in peace."
The mortal gripped his hand tightly, his eyes revealing an expression he couldn't decipher.
It made him feel very uneasy.
He wanted to save mortals, but didn't know how to save a single person.
All he does is kill.
"Lu Jiaojiao, do you know that your 'jiao' isn't the 'jiao' of 'proud,' but the 'jiao' of 'delicate.' You're just like a delicate little girl." Blood trickled from the corner of the mortal's mouth, like an unstoppable spring.
Young Gu Yan was so panicked that he didn't know what to do. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the mortal died in front of him.
He waited a long time before confirming that the mortal was really dead, and after a long pause, he burned the mortal and buried him under a tree in the courtyard.
However, he also took away Lu Lingjun's memories from this life.
He didn't know why, probably out of instinct for danger.
Perhaps it was also because of the look Lu Lingjun gave him before he died.
It was too bright, and too crazy, as if it wanted to devour him.
He didn't understand it at the time, so he simply pretended it had never happened.
If nobody remembers it, doesn't that mean it never happened?
"I'll give you a memory." Gu Yan closed his eyes, pressed his forehead, and then completed the last stroke of Lu Lingjun's formation.
Fine, considering that Pan Feng took back half of the backlash, and for the sake of blood ties, let's release him.
Anyway, with Gu Qiqi watching over this world, nothing serious will happen.
However, what he didn't know was...
After Gu Yanjing left, Pan Feng took out a duck, which was the last duck left in the secret realm.
The duck transformed into a young girl and, under Pan Feng's coercion, helped Pan Feng open the secret realm.
