Chu Hongluan had just returned to the Phoenix Clan's territory when she unexpectedly encountered a few scumbags that the Black Phoenix hadn't had time to clean up.
They naively regarded Chu Hongluan as a weak concubine, thinking she had gotten separated from Liu Jinghong. They exchanged glances and lewdly approached her.
Chu Hongluan was too lazy to waste her breath on them. Without even drawing her knife, she took down those blocking her way, one in each hand, and smashed their heads in.
The only man left behind stood there, trembling with fear.
It must have gotten really strong today...
Meanwhile, by the time Chu Hongluan hurriedly returned to the Phoenix Nest, the battle there was almost over.
Corpses were everywhere. The Black Phoenix returned to its original form and stood guard beside the Phoenix, gently preening her feathers.
Xiao Jiu is not here.
Liu Jinghong was not there either.
"Where is my senior brother?!"
Xuanfeng stared at Chu Hongluan: "Who is your senior brother?"
"Don't fucking play dumb!" Chu Hongluan cursed, flipping her hand to retrieve a phoenix egg from her spatial bracelet. "Tell me where my senior brother is! Otherwise, I'll crush it!"
"He's unconscious!"
Xuanfeng spoke hastily, not daring to provoke her any further, and raised her wings to point behind a boulder not far away.
Although Xuanfeng arrived in a hurry, she could clearly see that Chu Hongluan and the other person were stopping those stinky rats.
However, after being harassed by the Beast Taming Sect for millions of years, his goodwill towards human cultivators had been completely ruined, so he dared not trust Chu Hongluan at will.
Even though Chu Hongluan and the other woman helped him, he couldn't help but suspect that they had ulterior motives and other schemes.
Especially now, Chu Hongluan is threatening him with his child.
Chu Hongluan put the egg back into her spatial bracelet and hurriedly ran behind the boulder.
Liu Jinghong sat there, covered in blood, already unconscious. Xiao Jiu, having exhausted her spiritual power, curled up to the size of a palm beside him, and perhaps too tired, also fell into a deep sleep.
Chu Hongluan reached out with trembling hands to check his pulse.
With most of his essence and blood lost, the delicate balance achieved in his body by the three divine medicines—Blood Spirit Mushroom, Blazing Sun Flower, and Dragon Marrow—completely collapsed, and his body began to decay from the inside out, a sign that he was about to die.
Chu Hongluan swayed slightly.
"how so......"
"He was invincible during the battle, but for some reason he suddenly vomited blood and his spiritual power dissipated. I thought he was going to run away, but I didn't expect him to ignite karmic fire and almost perish together with those people. It was this... bird that saved him."
Before anyone knew it, Xuanfeng had transformed into human form and walked to Chu Hongluan's side.
Chu Hongluan froze, as if she suddenly remembered something, and abruptly reached out and tore open his collar.
Her fair chest was riddled with countless bloody holes, perfectly matching the wounds on her chest.
So that's how it is... So that's how it is...
Chu Hongluan suddenly turned her head, her sharp eyes piercing Xuanfeng like swords: "Give me your blood, in exchange for your child."
"What arrogance! At this distance, I could kill you before you even touch my child!"
Chu Hongluan sneered and took out the phoenix egg again: "See? It's tainted with demonic energy. Only I have the method to purify demonic energy. You have no choice."
Xuanfeng's pupils suddenly contracted, its anger barely contained, even its voice trembled: "What did those people do to it...?"
"They want a demon phoenix."
Xuanfeng swung her long sleeves sharply! A giant tree beside her instantly exploded!
Wood chips and fallen leaves rained down, and he took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
"You said you can purify demonic energy, is that true?"
Chu Hongluan's patience had reached its limit. She held the phoenix egg in one hand and placed the other on the hilt of her knife: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll have to draw blood myself."
I promise you.
Xuanfeng used her finger as a blade to slash her heart. A crystal-clear bead of blood, enveloped in spiritual energy, floated out and was brought to Liu Jinghong's lips.
The spiritual energy dissipated, and the phoenix blood entered his throat.
"If he can fuse with my heart's blood, he will also have a chance to be reborn. But the prerequisite is that he can fuse with it."
Xuanfeng's face was deathly pale, and she stood there as if a gust of wind would knock her over: "I know you want to save him, but if he fails to merge successfully, you must keep your promise."
The phoenix blood that Chu Hongluan wanted was the phoenix blood from the prescription, used to directly repair Liu Jinghong's spiritual palace and completely neutralize the medicinal properties of all the herbs.
Xuanfeng clearly misunderstood.
But since the blood had already been fed to Liu Jinghong, Chu Hongluan certainly wouldn't return it to Xuanfeng. After all, Xuanfeng's heart blood was also phoenix blood, and it would provide an extra layer of protection for her life, so she wouldn't bother to explain.
Chu Hongluan erased the divine sense imprint on Liu Jinghong's mustard seed pouch, took out the Amorous Grass from it, chewed it up, and fed it to him mouth-to-mouth.
Then he placed his hand back on Liu Jinghong's wrist, diverting his spiritual energy to help him unblock his meridians and blend the medicinal properties.
If these five herbs are refined into pills, one batch can yield five or six pills, and only one pill is needed to repair the spiritual palace.
But Liu Jinghong swallowed each one whole.
When the medicinal properties of the first three plants came on all at once, he was almost rotten into a pile of minced meat.
Two more plants today, combined with the residual medicinal properties of the previous three, it's like a collision of planets within Liu Jinghong's body.
Chu Hongluan could only carefully use her spiritual power to envelop his meridians and internal organs to prevent his fragile body from being shattered.
Time passed slowly, and the five herbs were finally combined. Although each herb was incredibly potent, the combined effect was remarkably gentle, slowly repairing Liu Jinghong's damaged meridians and organs...
