Yue Xiyuan opened the door and left, and Yan An slept soundly without any dreams.
Meanwhile, Yue Xiyuan leaned lazily against the bed, his eyes slightly narrowed, his mind filled with her every glance and smile. As he thought about it, the corners of his mouth turned up, and he chuckled softly.
As the night grew deeper, he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Recalling the scenes in Yan An's boudoir, he couldn't suppress his throbbing heart, and before he knew it, dawn had broken.
Yan An slept until late morning as usual. After lunch, she had Jin Diao and Yue Xiyuan deliver a letter, asking him to come to Zi An Courtyard tonight.
"Last night, Guang and Yue Xiyuan drank together and forgot about important matters. It's true that drinking makes mistakes!"
As darkness fell, the cool moonlight quietly streamed in through the cracks in the window.
Creak... The door opened...
"An'an!" Ever since receiving Yan An's letter, Yue Xiyuan had been unable to concentrate on anything. He finally waited until nightfall and rushed to Zi'an Courtyard without stopping.
"I have something to say to you." Yan An took a few steps forward and took Yue Xiyuan's hand.
Yue Xiyuan: An'an really misses her, she can't wait to hold his hand.
Yan An moved his consciousness and entered the laboratory, then turned around and showed the Gu book to Yue Xiyuan.
"An'an, is this the Gu poison I've been afflicted with?" He put away his smile and said seriously.
“Yes, according to the records in the Gu Book, if the seed Gu fails to take shape within seven days, it will backfire. So we have no news of them now. I guess there are two possibilities. One is that the person who planted the mother Gu was backfired and seriously injured. The other is that this person not only raised the God-Devouring Gu, but must have used other methods to suppress the backfire. Seeing that the God-Devouring Gu has not worked, he may have other actions.”
“I tend to believe the second possibility. The living dead you encountered before you were poisoned by the Gu were very likely raised using the blood of the Gu master. That’s why these people are only affected by him.” Yan An analyzed the situation in the Southern Territory.
“That makes sense. Yesterday, the secret guards reported that they still hadn’t found any trace of them.”
"Yue Xiyuan, they hurt you this time, do you want revenge?" Yan An revealed a strange smile.
"What brilliant plan does An'an have up her sleeve?"
If Yan An ever shows a malicious smile, it's definitely either someone else is in trouble, or someone else is in trouble...
“When I removed the Gu from you that day, I discovered that the Gu loved my blood but was also afraid of it. So I dripped a drop of my blood into the water of Tianshan Mountain to nourish it. I guessed that my blood could drive away the Gu and even turn against the Gu planter.”
"No, this is just a guess, it hasn't been proven, and it's too risky."
Yan An wanted to try to use his own blood to turn the mother Gu back on him, but how much blood he needed and whether it would backfire were all unknown. Moreover, it would require harming Yan An, which Yue Xiyuan could not do.
"Don't rush, let me finish. The backlash from the Gu worms will either kill or severely injure us, which will give us more time to search for them. Right now, we have no clues. It's as if they've vanished into thin air. What if they're already preparing their next move? Besides, don't forget where we are now. I have a way to draw blood without cutting any wounds." Yan An smiled.
Yan An knew that Yue Xiyuan was worried about her, worried that she would hurt herself for an uncertain possibility, and she was happy.
"Really?" Yue Xiyuan's eyes widened slightly.
"That's right, who am I?" Yan An raised her proud little face, which was quite cute.
After applying a tourniquet to Yan An's left arm, he disinfected the blood vessel twice, then inserted the puncture needle obliquely into the blood vessel. The end of the puncture needle was connected to a blood collection tube. After drawing three tubes, the puncture needle was pulled out, and the puncture site was pressed.
After pressing the blood, Yan An poured the three vials of blood into the container holding the Gu worms. Instantly, the Gu worms emitted a wisp of smoke. Yan An opened the container and used tweezers to move the Gu worms around.
"Yue Xiyuan, it seems to be dead..."
"Does it hurt?" At this moment, Yue Xiyuan didn't care whether the Gu worm was dead or alive. He only felt that the person in front of him had been pricked by the thin needle for a long time, and his heart ached.
Yan An opened her mouth to say it didn't hurt, but then she thought of her clueless fiancé and decided it wouldn't hurt to tease him a little.
"It hurts, it hurts so much! The needle is so long, someone has to blow on it to make it hurt." Yan An raised his arm, looking like he wanted Yue Xiyuan to take a good look at it.
"What does 'huhu' mean?" Yue Xiyuan felt extremely distressed.
Yan An pretended to blow on the tiny, almost invisible eye of a needle, and Yue Xiyuan understood.
Gently lifting Yan An's left arm, he breathed softly and warmly on her arm, his masculine scent instantly enveloping her, creating an atmosphere so intimate it was almost suffocating.
"Okay, okay, it doesn't hurt anymore." Yan An immediately stopped what he was doing. If he continued like this, he was afraid that he would lose control and pounce on the person in front of him.
"Yue Xiyuan, have your secret guards expand the search area these past few days, hopefully you'll find something."
"good."
Inside a cave within the southern borders, the cave stretches endlessly, is quite spacious, and is decorated with extremely opulent gold...
The man had a cold and sharp look in his eyes, and his silver hair made him look flamboyant and unruly. His loose-fitting outer garment hung precariously on his body, revealing a large expanse of beautiful skin below his neck. Although he was over fifty, he still looked like a young man.
A woman leaned against the man as if she were limp and powerless. Her face was stunningly beautiful, and she was dressed in plain clothes. Her figure was slender and graceful, and her charming fox-like eyes were fatal. Her voice was soft and seductive. She picked up a bunch of grapes and gently put them into his mouth, and the taste lingered in his heart: "Master, would you like to try some? Mine are sweeter."
The woman gently kissed the man's cheek, smiling sweetly, her hands resting on his thighs, her teasing kisses lingering around his lips.
