"Just ask, as long as I can do it." Jiayi said with an open-minded attitude.
"I don't care what your purpose is, but never threaten the lives of me and my friends." Luo Youyou said in advance. She must first obtain a talisman for them, otherwise there will still be countless troubles even if the transaction is completed.
Jiayi's eyes narrowed, "I can only promise not to threaten your friend's life."
Luo Youyou was stunned, "You want my life?"
"You and I cannot coexist." Jiayi said bluntly, "You can think about it."
Luo Youyou became even more suspicious of Jiayi's intentions. Why couldn't she and him coexist? What threat did her existence pose to him? However, Luo Youyou soon realized that Jiayi was wary of her powerful and mysterious power. A powerful person, even if he had no ambitions, would become a target of public criticism because they felt uneasy.
"Then it will depend on whether you have the ability to take my life." Understanding his fear, Luo Youyou laughed sarcastically. His fear meant that she was qualified to negotiate with him on an equal footing, and now their bargaining chips were similar.
Jia Yi nodded. "That's a matter for the future. Let's not talk about the future, that's too far away. Let's talk about the present. Are you willing to agree to the conditions for finding the thirteen sacred artifacts?"
"Okay!" Luo Youyou nodded heavily. She didn't know what kind of trouble she would encounter in finding the Thirteen Sacred Artifacts, but as it stood now, this deal was not a loss.
"I will send people to assist you. You will need their help." Jiayi gave Luo Youyou a list.
Luo Youyou's eyes fell on the name "Yueshen Xun", the princess of the Mokawi tribe who lost her heart for her servant.
"I don't accept Yue Shenxun." Luo Youyou said decisively.
"You will need her abilities when the time comes," Jiayi dismissed.
"You put me and her together, not to restrain me, right?" Luo Youyou's smile was very cold, like the ice on the top of the mountain that never melts all year round.
"I told you you would need her abilities."
"You know the grudge between her and me."
"I believe you have the ability to resolve it." Jiayi stood up, ready to end the conversation. This was a pointless argument. He would not cross out Yue Shenxun's name. Of course, it was not only because of her ability, but also because it was necessary to add some difficulties to Luo Youyou. Having a grudge against her would make it easier for him to use her.
"Have a good rest. When you have recovered your strength, we can talk about the expedition." After saying this, Jiayi gently closed the door.
After a while, a servant came in with food. Luo Youyou had not eaten for seven days, but was still alive miraculously. If she were an ordinary human, she would at least have to be fed with nutrient solution to barely survive.
The food brought by the servants included human food and human blood.
Luo Youyou looked at the blood in the utensils on the tray. The smell made her body a little restless. She felt the jumping power in her body tempting her. She closed her eyes tightly, trying to calm herself down, but when she opened her eyes, her eyes in the mirror were even redder. The bloodthirsty look scared the servant, who hurriedly put down the tray and ran away.
Luo Youyou moved to the dining table with heavy steps, looked at the blood in front of her, clenched her fists tightly, relaxed for a while, and clenched them again after a while. A layer of cold sweat seeped out of her forehead, covering her smooth skin with crystal clear sweat.
She swallowed, her throat was dry and needed liquid to moisten it. She felt that even her lips were burning and had lost all moisture.
She picked up the blood vessel with trembling hands, put it to her lips, took a sip, and then quickly spat it out. The resistance in her heart made it impossible for her to swallow it no matter what.
But soon, the little bit of blood she drank seemed to ignite the mysterious power in her body. The power seduced her even more vigorously, making her feel dizzy and her eyes gradually blurred, as if something drove her hand to pick up the vessel again.
Luo Youyou's mind tried hard to tell her to wake up, but when she regained consciousness, all the blood in the container had already entered her stomach.
She quickly ran into the bathroom, faced the pool, and put her fingers into her mouth, trying to spit out the blood she had just drunk, but the blood seemed to have merged with her body and she couldn't spit it out. She retched in the pool for a long time before she sat down on the ground resigned to her fate.
She burst into tears, clutching her head. She didn't want to be a bloodthirsty monster. She didn't want to live on blood, but why was everything going in a direction she didn't want? She wanted to go back to Weiyu Village right now and ask Luo Yun what kind of monster she had given birth to!
Luo Youyou cried and lost consciousness. When she woke up, she was still lying on the big round bed. Jiayi was sitting beside the bed. She smelled a metallic smell as soon as she opened her eyes.
Luo Youyou followed the smell and looked towards the head of the bed, where there was a cup of blood.
"I think you should need it." Jiayi's voice was as bewitching as the power in his body. Luo Youyou's hand unconsciously reached for the cup. After a moment's hesitation, he picked it up and drank it all.
Jiayi smiled with satisfaction.
What Luo Youyou has to face now is not only the threat from the outside world, but also her own resistance to her identity. The more she resists, the more her power will be weakened, and this is exactly the result that Jiayi wants.
"Why are you here!" Luo Youyou wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said impatiently. She really didn't want to see this face.
"You've been asleep for two days." Jiayi said calmly, "I want to confirm whether you are capable of cooperating with me."
"I'm fine! Tell me where the staff is, and I can leave right away."
"Don't be so anxious."
Luo Youyou was of course anxious. Mu Yaxi could only survive for three months. If she couldn't find the magic wand within three months, she would have no way out. Now, thanks to Jia Yi, she had been delayed for more than half a month, and there was not much time left.
"I don't want to see you for a single day, so you'd better get rid of me quickly!" Luo Youyou made no secret of her disgust for Jiayi.
"Okay." Jiayi smiled indifferently, "The spirit staff is now in the spirit realm."
Luo Youyou frowned. What kind of place was the Spirit Realm? She had never heard of it.
"The Spirit Realm is where the elves live. Thousands of years ago, the Spirit Staff was the elves' water staff. Later, it was cursed by the Sinmores and turned into a sacred artifact of the vampires." Gayi continued.
"Then why did it return to the hands of the elves?"
