The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 453 Going for the Blood Talisman

Chu Yanqiu grabbed Shen Wen and said sternly, "How could you do this? You knew that old pervert had bad intentions towards you, yet you still rushed to get close to him. I don't care what your plan is. This matter ends here. Come back with me first, and we will discuss the next step in detail."

Shen Wen could sense the man's fury. What should she do? To calm this man, who was about to go crazy, she leaned forward without a second thought and smacked her lips against his face. Fearing that this light kiss wouldn't work, she kissed him on the other side, and then on the mouth...

Under the influence of more than a dozen family strategies, Chu Yanqiu, who was about to lose his mind, went from surprise to calmness and then to composure...

Just as his male hormones were rising, Shen Wen widened the distance between them, standing opposite each other half a meter apart.

Shen Wen said: "Are you calm now?"

Chu Yanqiu suppressed his anger, then gradually regained his composure and said, "Don't think this trick will always work. I'll listen to your explanation this time. If it doesn't make sense, I'll knock you out and take you home to imprison you."

Shen Wen smiled and said, "I'll take that as a sign that you're too deeply in love with me. Let's put this aside for now. Let's get back to the matter of the blood talisman. I remember you and my two idiot men went to that place before."

Chu Yanqiu pretended to be dumb and asked, "Where?"

Shen Wen was so angry that he wanted to slap him on the head, but he reached out and hit him on the shoulder and said, "You know, it's the Blood Talisman's base camp."

Chu Yanqiu recalled the place and said, "Although we have been there before, you know I wasn't in a clear mind at the time. My memory of that place is fuzzy now, and I really can't remember how I got there."

Shen Wen was discouraged. She said, "Forget it. I'd better wait until the two idiot subordinates come back and let them take me there."

Chu Yanqiu only then remembered the two people from Puzhao Dadi. He asked, "It's been a while since we last saw them. Aren't they your guards? Why aren't they by your side?"

Shen Wen said: "Shouldn't I ask you about this? Have you forgotten that the last time they appeared was with you."

Chu Yanqiu slapped his head and said, "Yeah, I forgot! They saved my life and took me to Slit Mountain to find you. So... they're still in Slit Mountain? Could they be trapped in Slit Mountain, traveling endlessly through time and space?"

Shen Wen nodded helplessly again.

Puzhao Dadi is in a place like the Slit Mountain, where the terrain is complex and chaotic. The two idiots never responded to the summoning signals she sent out.

Although the Blood Talisman Army of Prince Rui's Mansion cannot be underestimated, it is nothing to her. She does not need to test it herself. She still has a mecha brigade of one thousand people in her weapons warehouse.

This mecha brigade is enough to crush the Blood Rune Army. At the very least, they have numerous advanced weapons. Not to mention the Blood Runes, even ten Big Diggers can disappear in an instant.

Shen Wen looked at her palm with melancholy, but there were some variables that were beyond her reach. For example, some people were born with the ability to control other people's wills. They controlled people's brains as easily as eating and sleeping. If a dangerous person like Shen Wen fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, he would become a tool for those people.

Chu Yanqiu grabbed Shen Wen's hand and called her name with concern. He didn't know what was wrong. The two of them were talking peacefully, but why did he suddenly become so worried?

Shen Wen put aside the terrible thought in his head and looked at Chu Yanqiu as if nothing had happened. Chu Yanqiu said with a guilty look on his face: "It's all because of my incompetence that you are so worried."

Shen Wen was helpless with this man. Where had the fearless young master gone? Now he looked so soft-hearted at every turn.

Shen Wen pressed her body against him, and the two of them hugged each other tightly. Listening to the thumping of his heart, she said softly, "Don't be afraid. The worst that can happen is that we die. I want to tell you that being killed is much better than any other painful outcome. If you always worry about the life and death of your loved one, you are really setting yourself up for failure. So you must tell yourself not to be afraid. When facing that person, even if it means death, it is still a victory. Whether it's your death or mine, it's the best outcome."

Chu Yanqiu's tears fell again. He said, "I'm really useless. I consider myself a man of integrity, but I'm not as brave as a woman like you. I promise I'll think it through."

The two people hugged each other tightly.

Chu Yanqiu clenched his fists hidden in his sleeves. He knew that time was running out. He had to find a good way to deal with the Immortal Ancestor before he returned, and also ensure that Shen Wen escaped safely.

Good times are rare and most suitable for people in love. Both of them know that such time is running out, so they put aside all their worries and just want to depend on each other like this forever.

Sitting on a big rock under a tree, Shen Wen turned his head to look at Chu Yanqiu who was sleeping soundly on his shoulder, and couldn't help but raise his hand to delicately stroke his face and facial features.

But no matter how reluctant they were, the time of separation had passed. Shen Wen leaned Chu Yanqiu against the tree and touched the trunk with his hand. In a blink of an eye, time and space changed and the two of them were already under the big tree in the Duke Ji's mansion.

As the sun was setting, Chu Yanqiu was found by Chi He and others who were searching for him intensively. He was still sleeping at the time, and Chi He gently woke him up. Chu Yanqiu had a pair of hazy eyes, and the moment he woke up, he hurriedly turned around to look at Shen Wen, but they were no longer there.

Chu Yanqiu immediately panicked. He asked, "Where is she? How did you find her here?"

Chi He looked confused and said, "Sir, which she are you talking about? Here? This is our Duke Ji's Mansion. This is our second house's small garden. Why didn't you sleep in the house? You ran to sleep under this tree? I hope you don't catch a cold. Come back with me to sleep in the house."

Chu Yanqiu was spinning around anxiously. He looked at the surrounding scenery and realized that this was no longer the Prince Rui's Mansion. Everything seemed like a dream.

Chu Yanqiu was unwilling to give in. He firmly believed that everything that had happened before was true. Thinking of this, he was about to run out. He wanted to break into Prince Rui's Mansion immediately, find Shen Wen, and tie her up to his side.

Chihe took Chu Yanqiu's hand and said, "Sir, where are you going? Miss Shen in your room has been waiting for you for a long time. If she can't find you, she will make a fuss. Sir, you should go back to the room and check."

Chu Yanqiu stopped immediately and turned around to ask, "Miss Shen? You were talking about Miss Shen, right? She? She's actually in my room?"

Chihe nodded and said, "Yeah. Yes."

Chu Yanqiu didn't dare to respond, but he moved immediately and went to see if Shen Wen was in his room.

Chu Yanqiu almost ran back to his room. When he opened the door, he saw Shen Wen sitting next to the table, turning around and looking at him.

Chu Yanqiu stood there in a daze.

Then, Shen Wen, a woman, stood up from her seat with a sweet smile on her face. She took a few light steps and came to Chu Yanqiu's side. She put her small hand around Chu Yanqiu's arm and said, "What's wrong, sir? You're sweating all over from running around? Maybe you missed me so much after not seeing me for a while?"

Chu Yanqiu's body, which was sweating profusely, froze.

With just a few simple movements, he instantly understood that this was all fake.

His two bright eyes were fixed on the woman. To be honest, Chu Yanqiu's face was really charming and good-looking. Even though the person standing opposite was an evil spirit, he was bewitched by his handsome appearance for a moment and couldn't help but lean his weak body against his chest.

Faced with her bewitching charm, Chu Yanqiu changed his strategy this time. He did not immediately grab her neck and kill her with a snap.

Although he didn't know what was going on, he remembered clearly that the evil spirit that had bewitched her on the bed was caught by Shen Wen and turned back to its original form. However, after not seeing him for a few hours, there was another identical "Shen Wen". He remembered the strategy he had discussed with Shen Wen. Perhaps this was a test for him. He hoped that there would be more such evil spirits. As Shen Wen said, with more experience, he would naturally be able to tell the truth from the false at a glance.

Strange things happened for several days in a row. The fake women that appeared every day were different. This time, Chu Yanqiu recognized them all clearly. Chu Yanqiu asked someone to deal with the woman on the first day. Another one appeared on the second day, just in time for Shen Wen to come to see him. Shen Wen grabbed the woman's wrist, and the woman returned to her true appearance. Chu Yanqiu, who was standing by, saw very clearly that it was actually a mixed-haired little fox.

Shen Wen came to see him again to ask him about the place where the blood talisman was. Chu Yanqiu didn't want her to take the risk of going to such a place, so he shook his head and said, "I don't remember clearly. You know your two subordinates, when they are in a hurry, they are like flying. And the road they took me on had no direction at all and didn't follow the road."

Shen Wen touched his chin and nodded, "That's right. When a mecha warrior is searching for a target quickly, it doesn't care about terrain or routes. As long as they follow the coordinates, even if there's a mountain blocking the way, they can just fly into the sky and pass through it."

Shen Wen had only come for this one question. Since she hadn't gotten an answer, she decided not to stay. She patted Chu Yanqiu on the shoulder, but glanced at the caged fox and said, "There will be more things like this in the future. These few days are all it takes to accumulate experience and develop a keen eye. Keep up the good work."

Chu Yanqiu was still confused at the time. It was only a few days after the live broadcast that he understood the meaning of these words. Chu Yanqiu saw Shen Wen was about to leave so soon. He grabbed Shen Wen's hand and said reluctantly: "Are you still going back to that place in the Rui Palace? Can you please not take risks again? That Rui Prince is a ruthless character. It's very dangerous not to stay by his side."

Shen Wen pulled Chu Yanqiu's hand away and held it instead, saying, "Don't worry about me. You already knew my strength well back in the modern world, didn't you? Don't worry, except for your Immortal Ancestor who can control people's brains, no one else in this world can kill me."

Chu Yanqiu recalled the little details of their life together in the modern era. He calmed down a bit and said, "Then give me a deadline. Just tell me how many days it will take for you to leave the Rui Palace and return to me."

Shen Wen smiled brightly and said, "I don't know either. I just plan to weaken Prince Rui's strength. If Pu Zhao Da Di and the other two were here, I could find the Blood Talisman's lair and blow it up without any effort. It would take less than a day to complete the round trip. Maybe I would have left Prince Rui's Mansion long ago."
