Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
The vine was injured and shivered violently, disappearing quickly in front of Xiao Xi’s eyes.
Xiao Xi glanced at the cave, and her eyes darkened. If I set on a fire, will all the vine demons be burned to death?
“Cough…” There was a weak cough.
Xiao Xi turned around and saw Nan Gongyin coughing out a bright red blood in his mouth.
“Nan Gongyin.”
Xiao Xi was shocked in her heart, and her eyes flashed a hint of panic. She held his arm tightly, and looked at Nan Gongyin worriedly.
Nan Gongyin glanced at Xiao Xi’s slender and soft little hand that was stained with the vine demons’ blood, and his eyes gradually showed a hint of gentleness. He wiped the blood on his mouth.
“Xi’er, are you afraid?”
Xiao Xi shook her head, “If the demon vines come again, I will tear them apart.”
Nan Gongyin smiled and put his palm gently on Xiao Xi’s tender cheeks. Because he was in a weak state, the temperature of his palm was very low.
“Xi’er, are you afraid of me dying?”
Xiao Xi froze. Nan Gongyin said “afraid”; it was not afraid of the vine demons, but of his death.
“You will not die.”
Xiao Xi said positively.
Nan Gongyin gently touched her smooth cheeks with a soft smile. Although there was a little dust on his face, his graceful appearance couldn’t be covered. Those cold moon-like eyes looked exactly like two crescents.
“As long as Xi’er is by my side, I will not die.”
His eyes were too gentle; his gaze was too enchanting; his voice seemed to have a magic to make people fall for him.
Xiao Xi was a little lost as if she was trapped in his gentleness.
“Gugugu…”
Eurasian eagle-owl’s voice recalled Xiao Xi’s consciousness, and she took the palm on her cheeks away.
“I’ll find some herbs for you.”
As Xiao Xi said, she didn’t dare to look at Nan Gongyin’s eyes, and she turned to look for herbs.
Nan Gongyin glanced at Eurasian eagle-owl, and his eyes looked slightly cold.
Eurasian eagle-owl seemed to feel a danger as it suddenly flew up and pounced on Nan Gongyin.
Nan Gongyin frowned and raised his arm. His arm was caught by Eurasian eagle-owl, and there was a huge pain.
“Little brat, what are you doing?”
Xiao Xi was shocked when she saw Eurasian eagle-owl grabbing Nan Gongyin’s arm, and its sharp claws ripped open a few wounds on his arm.
Xiao Xi ran over quickly and slapped away the Eurasian eagle-owl that hurt Nan Gongyin with a palm. Her eyes were a little red seeing Nan Gongyin’s arm bleeding.
For a moment, her tears dropped and said, “Nan Gongyin, you hold on. I will find some herbs.”
“Xi’er don’t cry, it only hurts a little bit; it’s fine.”
Nan Gongyin saw Xiao Xi’s tears, and his eyes flickered. He sighed in his heart. He tore off a robe and wrapped it on the bleeding arm. His initially pale face looked even more pale now..
Eurasian eagle-owl was slapped by Xiao Xi, so it didn’t dare to attack Nan Gongyin anymore. Its sharp eyes fixed on Nan Gongyin as if it was guarding against him.
Xiao Xi soon found the formosan beautyberry. After chewing into pieces, she first applied some herbs on the most severely injured arm on Nan Gongyin. After a while, the bleeding stopped.
He also had several wounds on his body, and some wounds even stuck to his clothes. Xiao Xi frowned.
“Nan Gongyin, take off your clothes.”
Without saying anything, Nan Gongyin took off his clothes. His white and graceful upper body had a few severe wounds. The moment he took off his clothes, the fleshes that stuck on his clothes became new wounds again.
Xiao Xi saw those bleeding wounds and frowned, “Nan Gongyin, can’t you be gentle to your body?”
Those wounds hurt when she saw them. What is he thinking? Did he feel any pain?
Nan Gongyin smiled, “Man will only be gentle to the woman he loves.”
Nan Gongyin’s eyes seemed so gentle as if his gentleness would overflow. Xiao Xi’s heart trembled. She looked down and applied herbs on his wounds silently.
Nan Gongyin looked at the little girl who gave him medicine. She had a small and delicate face. Her expression was very serious. The clear eyes didn’t seem to be moved by his appearance. Nan Gongyin’s pale thin lips rose slightly. He seemed to like this girl more and more.
There was a determined dark light in Nan Gongyin’s eyes. This little girl, I will never let Feng Lingran get her. Not only because of her identity as a spirit fox, but also because…
“It’s done.”
Xiao Xi carefully applied Nan Gongyin’s wounded body with medicine, picked up his clothes, and put it on his body, covering up the irritating white skin.
Wan Qiyu and Nightshade came over and saw the scene of Xiao Xi applying medicine for Nan Gongyin.
Wan Qiyu’s entire complexion did not good, and he looked coldly at the weak Nan Gongyin, “Hypocritical.”
A sword light flashed and suddenly thrust at Wan Qiyu’s neck. He was shocked and jumped suddenly, but the sword still left a blood mark on his neck.
Wan Qiyu touched his neck, and his palm was stained with blood. His eyes widened as he said angrily: “Nightshade, are you looking for death?”
Nightshade held the word in his hand and said coldly: “I don’t mind killing you.”
Xiao Xi knew how fast Nightshade’s sword was. Seeing Nightshade was about to attack Wan Qiyu again, her figure flickered, and she had already reached in front of Wan Qiyu. She opened her arms and protected Wan Qiyu behind her.
“Night, stop.”
When Nan Gongyin saw the sword in Nightshade’s hand as about to hit Xiao Xi, his eyes flashed coldly. He said.
Nightshade’s wrist turned and the sword turned away from Xiao Xi. He put the sword behind him and looked at Xiao Xi coldly. He seemed to be very unhappy about her protecting Wan Qiyu.
Wan Qiyu’s eyes fell on Xiao Xi’s weak body. At that moment, he did not expect that Xiao Xi would suddenly block in front of him. Nightshade’s sword was very fast, and it almost hurt Xiao Xi. This little fox really doesn’t care about her safety at all?
What a silly fox.
Wan Qiyu suddenly grabbed Xiao Xi’s small hand, “Lingran is still cultivating; he needs us.”
Hearing Feng Lingran, Xiao Xi walked with him without hesitation.
Eurasian eagle-owl followed behind Xiao Xi like her shadow.
Nightshade’s fingers tightened. Seeing Xiao Xi leaving, his handsome was getting colder. When he wanted to go and catch her back.
“Night.”
Nan Gongyin stopped Nightshade and shook his head at him.
“Master……”
Nightshade was dissatisfied. Master suffered so many injuries for Xiao Xi, shouldn’t he get a little reward?
Feng Lingran did nothing for Xiao Xi, but he can own her. Why?
Why is God so unfair to my master?
Nan Gongyin raised his hand to prevent Nightshade from continuing to speak. He watched Xiao Xi leaving, and his eyes gradually turned dark.
A few days later.
Wan Qiyu’s abdomen was scarred. The wound was almost recovered. These few days, he had been experimenting in herbs that he got from the surroundings. Xiao Xi didn’t know what he was experimenting, so she asked. Wan Qiyu smiled strangely at her and quietly told her that it was poison.
What?
Why is Wan Qiyu experimenting in poison?
Wan Qiyu glanced at the Nightshade not far away, and Xiao Xi suddenly understood that Wan Qiyu wanted to use the poison to deal with Nightshade.
Xiao Xi’s mouth twitched. Wan Qiyu’s martial arts are not as good as Nightshade, so he wants to use this dirty trick?
Xiao Xi didn’t say anything. It’s good for Wan Qiyu to do this. Nightshade sometimes went too far. He always hurt someone easily with a sword. Wan Qiyu always suffers a loss in front of Nightshade.
Xiao Xi’s eyes fell on Feng Lingran’s beautiful face. When will he be able to get out of the cultivation?
At the same time.
“Spirit Palace” was also in a mess.
Xiao Xi left, and Nu Er was in a bad mood. She ordered the people in the mansion to find Xiao Xi even if they had to dig the ground for three feet. She also sent a large number of people outside to find Xiao Xi.
A few days later, there was still no news.
Nu Er’s eyes were so scarlet that they could kill someone, and the red robe on her body was like being stained with blood. It was scary and ghastly. At this moment, the servant in the mansion, no one wanted to approach Nu Er, fearing that Nu Er would be angry and kill them.
“You bunch of useless waste! You can’t even find a person! You should all be dead.”
The people kneeling on the ground were the guards who came back and reported. They were all trembling slightly with their heads down. Their faces were pale like dead corpses.
Suddenly.
Nu Er’s nails became long and sharp, reaching out to a guard on the ground and penetrating his heart. The blood flowed into Nu Er’s nails, and the meridian at the back of her hand bulged up as if the blood was absorbed into Nu Er’s body .
After a while, the body of the guard fell straight to the ground. The body was so white that it seemed transparent as if the blood was lost.
“Ah.”
The other guard kneeling on the ground saw this and got up and ran away in fear.
Nu Er revealed a cruel smile on her mouth. Her nails grew crazily and penetrated the back of the guard who ran to the door. The blood flowed into her nails. After a while, the guard turned into a corpse. Nu Er’s lips looked bright like red roses in full bloom.
“If anything happens to Miss, I will let you all bury with her.”
Nu Er’s voice was like a demon from hell. Her bright red eyes flashed with disgust as she glanced at the two surviving guards trembling on the ground.
Really useless.
After a moment.
The room where Xiao Xi lived was pushed open, and Nu Er looked at Ling Er who was cultivating next to Spirit Epiphyllum. The bright red in her eyes faded and became normal black.
“Nu Er knows that I shouldn’t bother you to cultivate at this time, but Miss has disappeared for a few days. Nu Er is really worried, Nu Er can’t wait any longer. Those useless wastes can’t find Miss. Now, only you can find her.”
Ling Er did not open its eyes. It seemed to be in a trance.
Nu Er walked to Ling Er. Although she didn’t want to do this, she still took Spirit Epiphyllum.
As Spirit Epiphyllum was taken away, Ling Er quickly opened its eyes. It saw Nu Er standing in front of it, and it shook the hair on its body.
“Take me to Miss!” Nu Er murmured again after a pause, “Miss’s Hong Luan Star (The star that governs fortune and marriage in zi wei dou shu [1]) is flickering. The dowry will soon appear.”
Ling Er’s fluffy ears moved. It jumped off the table and ran toward the outside of the house.
Nu Er was overjoyed to see this. She followed behind Ling Er.
Xiao Xi and Wan Qiyu sat in front of the fire. They burned the fire to its fullest.
Xiao Xi picked up two fire sticks and said to Wan Qiyu who also held the fire stick, “Let’s burn the vine demons in the cave!”
Wan Qiyu nodded and said with a smile, “Okay, burn it to death so that it can no longer cause trouble in the future.”
Nightshade had been cultivating in the cave by fighting the vine demons, so Wan Qiyu had long been dissatisfied with it. When he and Xiao Xi burned the vine demons to death, let’s see what Nightshade could cultivate with?
Thinking of Nightshade’s angry face, Wan Qiyu felt satisfied in his heart.
