Chapter 116 She was disfigured!
Chapter 116 She was disfigured!
Feng Wan's face was smeared with the blood and flesh of the man in black.
A sharp pain shot through my face—smack!
Gui Yan received a solid slap. "Useless!"
"Hiss!" She gasped, "Ah, my face!"
Although it was only a single drop of blood, it seemed to be poisonous.
When Gui Yan looked up again and saw Feng Wan's face, his eyes were filled with terror; "Your Highness."
"Mirror, where is the mirror?!"
Feng Wan covered her face. Gui Yan instinctively tried to hide the mirror, but Feng Wan had already seen herself in it. The blood splattered on her left cheek was spreading at a visible speed, and the black scar was as big as a bowl!
It took up almost half of her face.
"Ahhh!" Feng Wan covered her face and screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
"Your Highness, quickly, take the medicine." Gui Yan took out a pill and gave it to Feng Wan.
The burning pain had finally subsided a bit, but—the bowl-sized scar was still there.
"Aaaaaah! How could this happen?!"
Gui Yan dipped a piece of paper in blood, and the paper turned black at a visible speed.
This blood is poisonous!
What a cunning Jun Qing! That despicable woman!
======
A sneeze!
At that moment, Jun Liuyue sneezed twice.
She had already left the ghost market, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Looks like someone's been talking about me."
Nine times out of ten, it's Feng Wan and Gui Yan.
She planted a deadly poison in the assassin's body, using his body as a vessel so that anyone who came into contact with the spurting blood would be burned by the poison carried in the blood.
In her previous life, among those who treated illnesses, saved lives, and used poisons, her forte was making poisons.
The poisons she concocts are cunning and unpredictable; without real skill, there's really no way to master them.
but--
As a princess of the royal family, this poison shouldn't be difficult for Feng Wan to use, right?
Jun Liuyue's lips curled slightly.
After changing his clothes, Wu Yan finally didn't look so much like a homeless person. She took Wu Yan's pulse and found that his Qi Sea seemed to have been forcibly shattered. His current cultivation level was only at the level of a Spirit Master, but his strength was extremely great.
Even cultivators at the Spirit Venerable Realm might not be able to withstand his brute force.
With Wu Yan by his side, he blocked many of the ill-intentioned glances.
Not far away, a pair of eyes were fixed on the direction of the two, and they followed closely behind.
Her petite figure was easily concealed in the crowd, making her difficult to spot.
But as they walked, the scarlet figure disappeared.
She stopped and looked around.
The next second, her collar was lifted up.
"let me go!"
Her eyes widened, but she couldn't break free at all; she was being lifted by her feet and dangling in the air.
Then—it was dumped in a small alley.
"You, what are you going to do!"
The little girl angrily raised her head and met that smiling face.
"Sister—Big sister."
The little girl's eyes lit up.
But when he saw the fierce-looking Wu Yan beside him, he extinguished the fire.
"Why are you following me?" She sensed someone was following her as soon as she left the ghost market.
Isn't this little girl the younger sister of that young man in front of the Dragon Capital Divine Doctor Pavilion?
But Longdu and Tianyun City are a day and a night apart. How long has she been following me?
"Sister, I didn't mean any harm!"
When she met Jun Liuyue's gaze, the little girl trembled and quickly waved her hands.
"Little demon!"
Just then, a young man's voice rang out from outside the alley.
"Brother, I'm here." The little girl's eyes lit up.
The young man walked in, looking at Wu Yan warily, and stood protectively in front of the little girl.
"My benefactor." The young man bowed respectfully to Jun Liuyue.
"What is your purpose in following me?"
"Please, benefactor, take in my younger sister, Xiao Yao." The young man lifted his robe and knelt before Jun Liuyue.
"elder brother!"
The girl named Xiao Yao's expression changed.
"You...didn't you say we'd follow our benefactor sister together?"
Hearing Xiao Yao's words, Jun Liuyue's lips twitched slightly. When did she agree to take them in?
"To be honest, my benefactor, we came here with you from Longdu."
Upon hearing this, Jun Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly, noting that more than a month had passed between the two events.
So, these two siblings spent the entire past month tracking her? And it wasn't until now that she discovered their existence.
"What makes you think I would take in your sister?" Liu Yue raised an eyebrow and sneered. "If you asked me to take her in, I would agree. There are so many people in this world, how could I possibly take them all in?"
"benefactor!"
The young man was at a loss for words, his face flushed with anxiety.
"If my benefactor is willing to take in this little demon, I will serve him like a slave for the rest of my life after I have avenged myself! I will never have any other intentions."
The young man kowtowed heavily, drawing blood from his forehead.
"I never keep useless people around me, so give up on that idea."
She never gets involved in troublesome matters; she's no savior.
"Sister, I'm useful," the little demon said hurriedly. "I...I have half-demon blood."
She rolled up her sleeve, revealing gray-black hair on her arm.
She looked pained, curled up on the ground, and then transformed into a pale golden mouse.
"It's a tracking rat. No wonder she could track you for a month." Xiao Luo exclaimed, "It's a tracking rat, so it's not surprising."
"Little demon."
The young man looked at Xiao Yao with heartache. Xiao Yao had already turned back into her original form, her baby face now extremely pale.
"Sister, it really works."
The little demon looked at Liuyue pitifully.
"What is your background?" Liu Yue looked at the young man. "I never take in people of unknown origin."
This young man was clearly not a half-demon, but a normal human.
"Replying to my benefactor, I come from the Sheng family of Qinglong. My name is Sheng Yang! Half a year ago, a group of men in black came, killed my father, and massacred the Sheng family. Xiao Yao and I were training outside and escaped the calamity. When we returned, there were only corpses all over the ground..." Thinking of the past, Sheng Yang hunched over in pain and trembled.
The scenes from that day seemed to be playing out right before his eyes; they were images he could never forget, a blood feud that ran deep...
"I later learned that it was my father's sworn brother who colluded with the Deng family to massacre my Sheng family and take over everything in the Sheng family." Sheng Yang clenched his fist.
"If I remember correctly, the Deng family are related to the royal family of the Azure Dragon Kingdom?"
Before leaving the Ghost Market, she asked the Ghost City Lord for a record of the current situation and power dynamics on the Canglan Continent.
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise – the four ancient kingdoms.
The Azure Dragon Kingdom is the most powerful and has intricate connections with the Heavenly Realm Island. The Deng family, favored by the Azure Dragon Emperor and Empress, wields immense power.
"good."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yang's expression became more serious.
With his strength, going up against the Deng family would be like throwing an egg against a rock.
“I can help you.” Jun Liuyue raised an eyebrow. “However, I never do business at a loss. I can help you kill the people who have taken over the Sheng family, but on the condition that you work for me for five years, including your sister.”
"My benefactor." Sheng Yang's eyes widened, unable to believe that what he heard was real, but... he didn't want to repay kindness with enmity and drag his benefactor down with him.
