Chapter 35: Liberation "Don't chase me, or I will kill you next time..."
Jiang Li's figure was like a shadow blending into the night, rushing towards the door, and every breath was filled with a strong smell of blood.
My heart was pounding in my chest, colliding with the panic of surviving the disaster.
Behind her, the manor where she had been imprisoned for countless days and nights was completely thrown into thick darkness.
…
While the servant was infected with the puppet Gu, there was also another kind of Gu lurking in his body, the [Corpse Gu] that Yun Si was very familiar with.
A desperate witchcraft.
Once activated, the victim will die instantly. This is a last resort, designed to retaliate against the person who cast the poison.
The other party had discovered the Puppet Gu but hadn't yet solved it. Either that little information was insignificant, or... they were completely helpless. With the attendant's sudden death, Yun Si naturally no longer needed to hide.
Even though Jiang Li knew this person's background, he didn't believe it completely.
To prevent this person from cheating, Jiang Li only told Yun Si that the poison he had placed on him that day was still there.
Yun Si didn't ask how she knew that. He just stared deeply into her eyes and said, "Sister, can I trust you?"
He seemed to know something...but seemed unwilling to delve into it.
Jiang Li's breathing stagnated and he just nodded.
"Okay, then I'll trust you again." His tone was unusually serious, even with a hint of determination.
What Yun Si saw that day was a tea room, but the attendant said it was a flower hall. This was enough to prove that what Jiang Li saw was the truth.
The attendant who had led the way was dead, leaving Jiang Li as the only person who knew the location of the flower hall. She led Yun Si and stopped in front of a door.
Jiang Li was about to push the door open, but Yun Si grabbed her and pulled her behind him, pushing the door open: "Sister, don't move."
Jiang Li raised the corners of his mouth stiffly and uttered a long-numbed compliment: "Asi is still considerate."
Yun Si never gets tired of listening to Jiang Li's words. He loves to listen to everything she says.
The house was filled with all sorts of flowers, and it seemed there was more than one kind mixed together.
Yun Si was suddenly startled and looked around vigilantly.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Li felt tense all over because of his tense reaction.
It was the scent of a Gu...and it was a type he had never seen before.
The Gu dish on Yun Si's waist shook violently. He quickly reached out to press it, but felt a burning pain at his fingertips.
His poisonous insect reacted extremely violently.
Yun Si shook his head, took Jiang Li's hand and walked slowly around the house.
Just as he approached the flowers, Jiang Li suddenly felt cold all over.
She smelled blood.
But Yun Si didn't seem to notice and was still concentrating on observing his surroundings.
She was hesitating whether to tell him when she heard hurried footsteps outside the door.
People are coming.
The man stepped into the house and his eyes were full of greedy excitement when he glanced at Jiang Li.
It’s a great tonic... but it’s a pity that there’s an annoying guy next to me.
It turns out that the desire in that look was a desire for food.
He was covered in blood, and Jiang Li was horrified by his look.
Since the relationship has been broken, Yun Si naturally has no need to be polite: "We just wanted to keep out of each other's way, but you dare to set your sights on us." Before he finished speaking, the poisonous insect came out.
Luo Huai didn't care: "I don't want to either, but your wife is really a great tonic!"
From the moment they set foot in this manor, the unique sweetness of women's blood captivated him. He had been entrenched in the manor for decades, and the male essence and female blood were both excellent nutrients for nourishing his Gu technique.
The moment he saw Yun Si, he knew that he had met an expert.
However, the allure of the woman's blood beside him was too deadly! He simply couldn't resist...
But Yun Si protected her so well that he had no way to start. When he learned that she had been infected with this man's poisonous insect, he cursed her inwardly.
If she moves slightly, the mother insect will sense it.
He tried to sow discord between her and even used threats and bribes to force her to leave alone, but she refused to leave.
He spied on the delicate relationship between the two and secretly gave Jiang Li poison.
Did she think that killing the mother Gu was to get rid of Yun Si's Gu? Of course not. Only when the mother Gu was gone would it be easier for him to take action.
Because the witchcraft is ineffective against him.
He shook his head confidently, saying with regret: "Haven't you tried everything?"
However, the next second, a tearing pain came from my back, legs, and arms simultaneously...
Yun Si smiled at Jiang Li and said, "Sister, you are right. Gu is useless, but the Gu worm is useful."
Jiang Li smiled knowingly, she had made the right bet.
This person's mind is as deep as the abyss, how could he easily expose his weaknesses.
"Ah..." Luo Huai howled miserably, only then realizing that several poisonous insects had clung to his body—centipedes, scorpions, and even venomous snakes that had snaked out from nowhere...
He was bitten hard on the leg, but he endured the pain and pulled the poisonous insect off. Considering his confidence just now, his current embarrassment seemed even more ridiculous.
"Why can you control the insects?"
"What kind of Gu is that on you?"
The two of them shouted almost at the same time.
Yun Si smiled without saying a word, his eyes gleaming coldly at the other person.
As a Gu magician, how could Luo Huai not recognize the Golden Silkworm Gu?
Luo Huai's throat rolled, his voice dry: "The... Gu King of Miaojiang?"
Jiang Li saw the two men in a stalemate, and she felt uneasy. She followed the smell of blood and approached the flowers.
The moment she parted the flowers, the strong smell of blood made her retch. She looked closely and saw piles of corpses inside...
Luo Huai noticed it and rushed over frantically without hesitation!
The severe pain from the insect's bite could not be stopped, and by the time Yun Si reacted, it was too late to intercept it.
The look in his eyes was filled with the madness of a desperate struggle...
Seeing the bloody man rushing towards him, Jiang Li frantically searched his pockets.
Her fingertips touched the cold, hard object, and she took out the lighter with trembling hands.
Finally, when the man was only one step away.
Light it up and throw it into the flowers!
With a thud, Luo Huai fell heavily to his knees, his eyes instantly filled with despair.
The raging fire spread with unstoppable force...
Jiang Li's heart was pounding like a drum, just one step away...
She turned her head to look at Yun Si, only to find that his face was full of astonishment.
Following his gaze, the young and handsome man just now looked like an old man... His skin was loose, wrinkles were all over his body, and there were several bloody holes on his body.
Jiang Li was so frightened that his throat tightened and a strong feeling of nausea surged up.
Yun Si supported the shaky Jiang Li: "Sister is really amazing."
"My Gu!" Luo Huai let out a heart-wrenching wail.
At this point, Yun Si had a vague answer in his mind. He spoke again, his voice trembling slightly with excitement: "What kind of Gu is this?"
"Immortality Gu..."
His heart was pounding, and Yun Si could hardly suppress his excitement.
The Immortality Gu actually exists!!
He wanted to ask more questions, but Luo Huai had already died.
At this moment, Yun Si and Jiang Li were the only ones left in the huge manor. She could feel herself getting nervous, her heart beating so fast it almost burst out of her chest.
"A Si, let's get out of here quickly..." His voice was trembling uncontrollably.
Yun Si came back to his senses. The sky outside the window had completely darkened, and the place was filled with strangeness. "Okay."
Jiang Li held his arm tightly and walked out of this house filled with death and fire. The rain outside was still not stopping.
Corpses were lying across the corridor.
Jiang Li suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Yun Si asked.
"I'm scared..." The voice was filled with fear.
However, the person in front of him suddenly raised his hand and covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief with a strange fragrance.
Yun Si wanted to open his mouth, but he felt the strength in his limbs suddenly drained away. His body went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
Jiang Li slowly loosened his hand, and the handkerchief fell.
Her face was terribly gloomy, and her hands were shaking uncontrollably.
Yun Si leaned weakly against the cold wall, looked up at her, with a look of confusion still in his eyes.
Jiang Li pulled out the hairpin on her head, and the cold tip pressed against his heart!
Stab it! Yun Si will die!
No more threats from now on!
She will be free forever!
She watched the light in Yun Si's eyes change from confusion to astonishment, and finally to incredible anger.
The moment the tip of the hairpin fell, her hand... involuntarily turned away.
It didn't pierce the heart.
Instead, it pierced deeply into the flesh on the side.
Once again, she tricked him.
This was the last bit of mercy she gave.
"Don't chase me, or next time... I'll kill you!" Her screams shattered in the night wind. She wasn't sure if he heard her, but she only hoped the drug would hold him back long enough.
She didn't look back.
I dare not, and I can’t.
She didn't look at Yun Si's eyes at that time, and she didn't want to remember it.
The cold rain soaked her completely.
The road under my feet was rugged and muddy, and my white shoes had long been soaked in yellow mud.
She ran for an unknown amount of time, her legs growing heavy. She leaned against a giant tree, panting heavily, her soaked clothes clinging to her cold skin. All around her was dead silence, the only sounds being her heavy breathing and pounding heartbeat.
My nerves suddenly tensed up, and a chill ran down my spine.
She suddenly woke up - he would come after her, and soon!
If you are caught by him, you will be made into a Gu vessel...
Fear screamed and clenched my heart, and the brief feeling of weakness was instantly overwhelmed by the surging desire to survive.
She couldn't stop! She had to run further...
Jiang Li gritted his teeth and forced his sore legs to move forward again. Every step he took into the unknown fear brought him one step further away from the cage.
The air on the rainy night was cold and thin, but she was content with it.
She finally left...
Inside the manor.
Dead silence.
The sweet fragrance of flowers mingled with the thick smell of blood, lingering in the air. The corridor was littered with twisted and broken bodies, a horrifying and eerie sight.
Dark red sticky substance splattered everywhere, like solidified blood.
Yun Si leaned against the cold wall, a feeling of weakness emanating from deep within his bones. His vision blurred, and he shook his head, trying to focus his scattered consciousness, but every attempt only brought on a deeper sense of dizziness and exhaustion.
"Sister..." He was finally able to speak.
He murmured, his voice hoarse and broken, filled with incredible pain and confusion.
He chuckled, sarcastically.
Lied to him again!
He actually believed her completely, believed her unwillingness to flee. He believed the forced shame and anger in her eyes after being "humiliated" by him. He thought he had tied the kite, but it was just an illusion that the kite was still hooked on the string.
Angry? With the previous experience as a lesson, he was actually a little excited...
What surprised him even more was Jiang Li's soft-heartedness.
She didn't kill him and she softened her heart.
How could someone who truly hated someone be soft-hearted? And that cold warning: next time...
Sister, you are also looking forward to having sex with me next time, right?
"Heh..." A low, cold laugh ripped through his teeth, reeking of blood. He slammed his fist into the ground, his knuckles instantly ripping open. The intense pain briefly dispelled the dizziness, bringing a twisted sense of clarity.
He raised his head and looked in the direction where Jiang Li disappeared. His eyes, which always showed teasing or possessiveness, now only showed the dead silence of the abyss after the storm.
The faint sensation from the insect made the corners of his mouth rise slightly.
Did she forget? She still had his Gu in her body...
She can't escape.
"This time," he said slowly, enunciating each word, his voice cold, "where will you...run to?"
He closed his eyes and forced the almost exhausted poison power in his body to fight against the remaining poison.
Time, what he needs most now is time.
Recover, and then... catch the fleeing beast.
Next time, he would not give her any chance to be "merciful". She would not be able to escape no matter where she went.
