Chapter 96: Losing Reason
Blood seeped from a small wound on Li Yuan's wrist. Qing Li leaned closer and sniffed it gently: "This...this is..."
"How is it?" Ye Fei asked anxiously.
"This is Flame Poison!" Qingli exclaimed, her little black eyes filled with disbelief. "This poison is extremely potent. When it takes effect, the whole body becomes burning hot, as if trapped in scorching flames. It burns away the poisoned person's sanity, and..."
Ye Fei frowned: "And what?"
Qingli glanced at Li Yuan and said cautiously, "When I was born, I possessed the inherited memories of my race over thousands of years. I know that this kind of poison was only used by people in the ancient primordial era... As things stand now, it's impossible for anyone to still use the Flame Poison."
Ye Fei fell silent.
Qingli's words meant that Li was poisoned with the Flame Poison a thousand years ago.
If that's really the case, then how old is he this year? He looks like he's only fourteen or fifteen years old...
Qingli looked at the girl's slightly gloomy face, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Master, the toxicity of the Flame Poison is too domineering. Although the White Immortal Orchid can cure all poisons, it cannot cure the Flame Poison..."
The white orchid cannot cure the inflammatory poison...
Ye Fei was extremely anxious.
He had saved her life, and she couldn't just leave him to fend for himself here, but now she was completely helpless.
What could she do? What could she possibly do?!
Ye Fei raised her hand and gently wiped the cold sweat from the boy's forehead, but the next second, the boy suddenly opened his eyes, and what came into her view was a pair of eyes that radiated a deep purple light!
A captivating allure and murderous intent coexisted within those beautiful eyes. Ye Fei stared intently into them, feeling as if her soul was being drawn deep into them—
However, at that moment, the boy swiftly grabbed her neck, and Ye Fei groaned as her body fell into the pink sea of starflowers.
Li Yuan pinned Ye Fei down, his deep purple eyes flashing with intense killing intent. His slender fingers tightened, and Ye Fei suddenly felt a suffocating sensation, unable to breathe.
"Cough... Let go of me..." Ye Fei struggled against Li Yuan's hand, her delicate face turning red from his pinching, and she could hardly breathe!
Li Yuan showed no sign of letting her go. His eyes, which shone with a dazzling purple light, were devoid of any clarity except for the murderous intent.
Ye Fei suddenly remembered what Qing Li had told her—the Flame Poison would burn away the poisoner's sanity!
So it seems that his sudden murderous intent towards me was because of the Flame Poison!
"Cough cough... Li... Li!"
Ye Fei tried to call his name to wake him up, but as the pressure on her neck increased, she was also about to give up...
"Master! Master!" Seeing that her newly contracted master was about to be strangled to death, Qingli rushed towards Li Yuan without hesitation.
Li Yuan raised his other hand, and dark spiritual energy condensed from his palm. Ye Fei, with her sharp eyes, quickly used her last bit of strength to take Qing Li into her spiritual space.
As Ye Fei slowly lowered her hand after completing the last step, Li Yuan released her hand at that moment. He brought his lips close to the girl's fair neck and then bit her hard!
His hidden fangs tore through her fragile skin, and warm blood flowed into her mouth.
Li Yuan stuck out his tongue and licked the blood seeping from the wound, a hint of infatuation gradually appearing in his eyes.
It smells so sweet, why not just devour her soul...?
"Li..." Ye Fei whispered his name, her eyes half-open and weak, vaguely feeling the darkness getting closer and closer to her.
If we don't do something, she's going to die...
