Venerated Venomous Consort

She could feel the pain flowing through her entire body. Her body trembled, and she fell to the ground. Fortunately, Gu Xijiu had a spiritual power close to level eight. Hence, her body gave a natural response to danger as her muscles tensed and contracted to respond even before her brain could react when the blade penetrated her skin.

Ye Hongfeng had wanted to pierce the knife right through her heart, but Gu Xijiu was lucky as the knife just barely missed her heart by a few inches.

Gu Xijiu applied a strong force to Ye Hongfeng’s head which sent her flying towards a big tree nearby. If she were to hit the tree, her head would have cracked open like a smashed watermelon!

A white shadow flashed across in midair and grabbed Ye Hongfeng. She immediately fell into his arms and landed on the ground.

”Brother Long Xi, we made it! I’ve got her blood right from her heart!” Ye Hongfeng cheered in his arms and then hugged his neck.

Gu Xijiu could barely stand in her current state. She immediately raised her head and stared at them as she heard Ye Hongfeng laughing. She could not believe what had just happened.

Long Siye’s face was extremely pale as he looked at her. However, he remained silent and did not even bother to step forward to check on her.

Ye Hongfeng was lying in Long Siye’s arms and was leaning against his chest as though she was a kitten. She was still holding the knife. Apparently, it was customized to hold a tiny tube on the blade. The tube was filled with her blood now.

”Why?” Gu Xijiu realized that her vision was blurring, but she tried her best to endure it. She clenched her fist tightly and asked with a hoarse voice as she looked at Long Siye, ”Why?!”

”It’s rather simple, Gu Xijiu. What we required to retrieve the muscles out from the Silver Fairy Beast was not the blood of a virgin but the fresh blood right from your heart! Only then can we obtain the nice muscles needed to make the best Cane of Spirits. Brother Long Xi knew that my Kung Fu was weak. Hence, he wanted to make a cane for me. However, we did not have sufficient ingredients earlier, but you volunteered to get it…” Ye Hongfeng laughed as she explained.

”Is it true?” Gu Xijiu did not bother about Ye Hongfeng and focused her attention towards Long Siye.

Long Siye was staring back at her, and his face was as pale as a piece of white paper. He slowly broke into a smile. ”Are you hurt? Do you know now how painful it is?”

Although he did not answer her question, he did not deny it as well. Gu Xijiu immediately took a step back! The knife which was pierced into her back did not only look strange, but there was something else on the blade. Her wounds felt extremely painful as though thousands of bees were stinging them. Her forehead was quickly covered with a layer of sweat, and her face was getting paler.

Although the knife did not pierce directly through her heart, it had grazed the edge of it. Coupled with the blade penetrating through her chest from her back, she would have fallen into a coma by now if not for her strong mental and spiritual power!

She felt extremely dizzy, but she bit her lips so that she would not fall unconscious. Gu Xijiu knew that both of them wanted her to die, but she could not give up that easily! Di Fuyi was still waiting for her in the hotel...
