Chapter 85: Inappropriate? Why didn’t you… when you seduced me?
Li Jing did not wear the heavy black clothes as usual today, but a red dress, as bright as blood.
He didn't even have time to change out of his wedding clothes.
Mu Xingchen's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned and said coldly, "Li Jing."
Li Jing wore a mask, his silver hair draped over his shoulders. Through the mask, Mu Xingchen could clearly see the coldness in his eyes.
Such a strange look, completely devoid of the tenderness of the past.
The smile on Mu Xingchen's lips faded. She knew what that look meant. She had also been betrayed.
She slowly avoided his gaze, rubbing her palms together and jokingly said, "If I said I was forcibly taken away by Wenhe Batian, would you believe me?"
Li Jing didn't say anything, but the darkness in his eyes became darker.
Every breath, every blade of grass and every tree around is being serious.
Mu Xingchen suppressed his smile and said straight to the point, "What do you want?"
Li Jing finally spoke, his voice piercingly cold: "Come back with me."
Mu Xingchen's breath hitched, she pursed her lips and said, "We are not suitable."
"Ha." Li Jing sneered, taking a step forward and demanding, "Inappropriate? Why didn't you say it wasn't appropriate when you seduced me?" He slowly removed the mask from his face, his eyes brimming with murderous intent as he asked, "You're done using me and you're thinking of killing me and running away. Ha, Mu Xingchen, there's no such thing as a good thing in this world."
Mu Xingchen looked at his pale face, her fingertips trembling slightly. She avoided his eyes and frowned, saying, "I didn't poison you. I will find an antidote within a month."
The sneer on Li Jing's lips deepened, the coldness in his eyes intensified, and even the murderous aura around him became more intense.
Mu Xingchen frowned and tried to persuade him, "You are poisoned now. If you force yourself to fight me, you won't be able to stop me. It will only be disadvantageous to you."
Li Jing asked sinisterly, "Who are you?"
Mu Xingchen pursed her lips and did not answer his question.
There was a moment of silence, and the surrounding leaves were crushed into powder one by one.
Li Jing suddenly laughed, his eyes red with laughter, and he said in a piercing voice, "I didn't know your cultivation was so high. I think all my efforts were in vain."
Mu Xingchen's eyelashes trembled, and she said in a voice rolling over her throat, "I'll return the demon spirit to you in a month."
"Heh." Li Jing's eyes grew colder. "You've been plotting against me since the first time we met. The repeated fights we had before were also intentional on your part." The evil cultivator who had repeatedly severely injured him was actually the one he loved and cared for.
Li Jing's heart seemed to be torn into pieces at this moment. It was the first time he trusted someone like this, but he was tricked into losing everything.
Mu Xingchen stared at his crimson eyes, feeling an inexplicable pang in her heart. Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she touched the porcelain bottle in her sleeve. With the love poison in her, she couldn't explain it away, and once it was released, he would undoubtedly be murderous.
Mu Xingchen closed her eyes helplessly. Her voice was slightly cold as she said, "I do have a plan, but it's not your identity or your demon spirit. Wait until I find the antidote, and then we'll..." She opened her eyes and asked tentatively, "Let's break up peacefully, okay?"
"Boom—" A strong wind blew around. Li Jing smiled sinisterly and said, "Peace? Break up? Do you think it's possible? I say it again, come back with me."
Mu Xingchen couldn't help but feel a headache at this moment.
Xiao Qi said excitedly: "It's beautiful! I love it! The stars, the Shura Field. This is the taste of love."
"Love!" Mu Xingchen was speechless. She said in a tangled tone, "Xiao Qi, if I remove the love Gu from him now, will he no longer be obsessed with it?"
Xiao Qi agreed: "That should be the case, but that would really mean that you two will fight to the death."
Mu Xingchen hesitated and said, "Then...is it possible to discuss it?"
Xiao Qi replied hesitantly: "Otherwise, you try..."
Mu Xingchen sighed helplessly again. She looked at Li Jing and pursed her lips and said, "You want to do it, right? Come on."
Li Jing narrowed his eyes, his rims red. He stretched out his right hand slightly, and then summoned a rusty, murderous sword. In an instant, he raised his hand, and a huge sword energy, accompanied by a strong murderous aura, slashed towards Mu Xingchen fiercely.
Mu Xingchen's eyes changed. He really wanted to kill.
She immediately raised her hand and condensed a powerful spiritual power to resist.
In an instant, two powerful spiritual powers and evil spirits collided violently in the mountains.
"Bang!!!" A loud sound.
The whole mountain was in turmoil, rocks were falling all over the sky, and startled birds were flying everywhere.
Mu Xingchen withdrew her numb palm and looked at Li Jing in shock, "Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Before he could finish his words, Li Jing spat out a mouthful of blood with a pale face.
His sword was stuck in the ground, supporting his body. Silvery white silk covered half of his face, making him look even more eerie.
Mu Xingchen closed her eyes in anger and said fiercely, "You're poisoned and you still dare to use this sword!!!"
Just as she was about to go closer to see how he was doing, Li Jing suddenly raised his head, his pupils slowly turned purple, and then stood straight up.
His eyes were now staring at her like a snake.
Mu Xingchen's whole body stiffened, she opened her mouth, and her heartbeat began to accelerate.
She said in a dry voice: "You..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Jing's lower body began to transform. As his tail transformed, several black scales began to grow on his face. A moment later, a huge tail glowed darkly in the forest.
Li Jing looked straight at Mu Xingchen, and there was no emotion in his erect pupils, only indifference and murderous intent towards his prey.
Mu Xingchen's whole body turned cold in an instant. She held onto the tree next to her, and her fingertips began to tremble slightly.
"Snake...how could it be a snake..." In an instant, cold sweat broke out on Mu Xingchen's forehead.
"How could it be a snake..." She kept muttering this sentence over and over again.
Li Jing felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard her muttering. He asked in a hoarse and cold voice, "Are you afraid of me?" After that, he moved his snake tail slowly towards her.
"Don't come over!" Mu Xingchen shouted. She held onto the tree trunk and took a few steps back with weak legs. "Don't come over!" At this moment, there was only fear and strangeness in her eyes.
Li Jing paused for a second, his purple pupils turning scarlet. He suppressed his voice and said in a trembling voice, "Mu Xingchen!"
Mu Xingchen looked at the withered grass on the ground, and she almost didn't dare to look up at him.
Xiao Qi said in shock from inside the bracelet: "Xingchen, don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Even though it's a snake, it's still Li Jing. He is Li Jing, don't be afraid."
Mu Xingchen's breathing became rapid because of fear. She had been afraid of snakes since she was a child, let alone such a big snake appearing in front of her.
She slowly raised her head, and the moment she saw Li Jing's tail, she couldn't help but tremble for a moment.
She trembled and said, "What do you want? I'll tell you the truth. You like me because you've been poisoned by a love poison. I can give you the antidote right now so you can regain your sanity. Think carefully about it. If we fight, both of us will suffer. I know I've let you down, so if there's anything you want, just ask. I'll definitely do it. Consider it my compensation."
If she had some feelings for Li Jing before, after she knew that he was a snake, all those feelings disappeared.
Snakes are the most disgusting things in the world.
Li Jing's pupils turned even colder, and he said angrily, "What did you say? Love Gu?"
Mu Xingchen suppressed his trembling hands and threw the antidote in his sleeve to him.
"This is the antidote."
She didn't want to explain anything at the moment, she just wanted to leave.
Li Jing turned his head slightly, and Fengxue appeared from behind him.
She walked over to Li Jing, took the porcelain bottle, sniffed it, and said coldly, "Master, it's the antidote." After that, she looked at Mu Xingchen and said coldly, "I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!!! How dare you use any means to plot against the Master?"
Mu Xingchen took a deep breath. She had originally wanted to give the antidote after a month, but now she didn't want to bother with it anymore.
Li Jing lowered his eyes and touched the porcelain bottle in his hand. After a moment, he looked up at Mu Xingchen and said, "You'd better pray that I still have some feelings for you after taking the antidote, otherwise..." After saying that, he drank the antidote in the porcelain bottle in one gulp.
Time began to pass by minute by minute.
Mu Xingchen calmed down a little, but his hands and feet were still cold.
"How?" she asked, looking up.
Li Jing's pupils still didn't change at all, but stared at her straight, making her back tingle.
"Have you considered what I just said? I know your purpose and I can help you. If you are willing, I can even be your greatest helper." This was her utmost sincerity.
"Heh." Li Jing suddenly sneered, "You're the one who betrayed me, and you still want to be loyal to me?"
Mu Xingchen sighed: "It's not loyalty, it's repaying a debt of favor. Now that you have regained your sanity, you should know what is best for you."
Li Jing narrowed his eyes and said slowly, word by word: "Unfortunately, I don't want to make a deal with you."
Mu Xingchen slowly clenched his fists. Since the deal couldn't be made, the only option left was a fight to the death.
But at this moment, she still felt weak in the knees when she looked at his big black tail.
Mu Xingchen held onto the tree trunk and counted down in his heart.
"three."
"two."
"one."
After counting the third number, she ran back without looking back.
Fengxue's pupils widened, and she turned around and said anxiously: "Master!"
Li Jing curled the corners of his lips indifferently, his eyes red as he said, "She can't run away."
A quarter of an hour later, Mu Xingchen ran to the cliff. She held onto the tree trunk beside the cliff and looked exhaustedly at the barrier on the edge of the cliff.
She closed her eyes, turned around and shouted into the woods, "Senior! What good did he give you? I'll pay double!!!"
The old man immediately jumped up from the bottom of the cliff with a grin on his face. He said ecstatically, "Hahahahahaha, little girl, it really is you. I was right, old man. You really do have a love-hate relationship with that guy."
Mu Xingchen was speechless: "Senior! This is a matter of life and death! Do you really want to see me fight him to the death?"
The old man immediately puffed his beard and glared, "What nonsense, what about a fight to the death? It's obviously because you broke your promise and ran away from the marriage that you forced that guy into that state!" As she spoke, she cleared her throat twice and whispered, "Little girl, let me tell you, men are easy to coax. If you say a few soft words, he won't know what's going on. If you show a little affection, he will be even more confused."
Mu Xingchen was really speechless.
