Phoenix Returns - C40

All these years, that figure had always been in his heart, reminiscing about his aura and that warm chest.

Perhaps it was because he wanted to save her that he wanted to repay her kindness from the bottom of his heart.

Perhaps it was because she didn’t see his true appearance clearly that she felt that he was so perfect. She was so curious that she wanted to touch him.

When she thought of that person’s figure, she felt a kind of hurt. Why was she unable to clearly see his appearance? Why couldn’t he be found all these years?

Chu Shiyu sighed and said, “Maybe it’s to repay him for his dagger, or maybe it’s just to repay him for saving his life, because he’s the most perfect person in the world!”

These words made Yu Wuyou exhale. If she knew the person was like this, would she still admire him that much?

Since it was just an illusion, then let this illusion continue to be false. She didn’t suspect anything, and he didn’t say anything either.

By the time Master Chu returned to the Heavenly Master Stage, Yu Wuyou had not come to send her off. He felt that that person was too perfect in her heart, and that he had already been covered in filth in order to avenge his mother’s death.

He was afraid that the perfect image would be instantly destroyed, that her admiration for him would turn into discrimination.

After Master Chu left, they passed by the Resurrection Lily City, planning to stay in the city for the night before returning to the Heavenly Master.

However, just as she fell asleep at night, she heard the sound of a woman crying for help from outside the inn. She didn’t want to cause any trouble, but the cry for help was getting closer and closer, as if it was outside the window.

After tossing and turning, he was always woken up by the cry for help. He had to get up and open the window to check on the roof.

In the silence of the alleyway, he saw a girl running with all her might. Behind her, there was a white silhouette with a face that couldn’t be seen.

When Master Chu saw that, he was shocked. Wasn’t that the Murong Jiuqing she had killed? He was obviously burnt to ashes, how could he be here?

Not only that, the beauty of the maiden she was chasing must be because she wanted to use that woman’s beauty to restore her appearance.

“Damn it! If you can crawl out of hell even after dying, then I’ll let your Flying Ash Soul scatter!”

At that moment, a figure appeared behind the running woman, blocking the white figure that was chasing after her. Murong Jiuqing raised his head. When he saw Master Chu, he was shocked at first, but then he staggered and ran away.

After being burned by Li Huo last time, he had escaped with his life on the line. His face had originally been bloodless, and he looked like a dead man, which was pretty delicate.

However, the fire had nearly destroyed her delicate face. A uneven scar covered half her face, making her look both human and ghostly.

Even though she was alive, her power was greatly reduced. If it weren’t for the fact that she used the strange herbs and medicines to control the fire, her entire body would have been decayed long ago.

“Murong Jiuqing, is it really you? “You sure have a big life. It seems like if I don’t kill you, you will continue to kill me.”

The direction Murong Jiuqing was fleeing in was intercepted by Chu Shiyu. A sword pierced Murong Jiuqing’s chest, and the crimson veil passed through the blade of the sword, easily dodging the attack.

Master Chu’s gloomy eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, and he said with a cold smile, “Indeed, being able to spread the burn from Li Huo’s body is already good fortune, but your face can no longer be seen.”

Murong Jiuqing, who was already filled with resentment, immediately turned around and glared at Chu Shiyu upon hearing her words. He said harshly, “It’s all your fault. I could have had a pretty face, but now that you appeared, I don’t have anything left. If I don’t kill you, I won’t be able to quell the hatred in my heart.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the white claws grabbed towards Chu Shiyu’s heart, leaned behind Murong Jiuqing, and grabbed onto her leg, slamming her heavily onto the ground.

Master Chu squatted down and looked at her devil-like appearance. He said with disgust, “I can kill you once, but I can also kill you twice. Don’t you like to play tricks on people? Then I will make you truly become a ghost, and make those people that you have killed so that you will no longer be at peace in hell. ”

She raised her sword charmingly, but before she could fall, Murong Jiuqing immediately said, “Didn’t you want to know who saved you all those years ago? “Let me tell you, as long as you don’t kill me today, I will tell you who he is.”

Chu Shiyu was stunned. She had searched for so many years but still could not find out who that person was. How did Murong Jiuqing know?

She put down the blade of the sword, grabbed Murong Jiuqing’s lapel and asked, “Who is he? Where is he?”

“He … that is, the Southern Neighbors’ Sleeping Moon, Wang Zhan. ”

“Yu Wuyou, how could it be him?” Chu Shiyu would never believe that he was Yu Wuyou, so he did not know if Murong Jiuqing’s words were true or false. You lied to me, if it was Yu Wuyou, why didn’t he say so? ”

Murong Jiuqing said, “Because he is afraid that the perfect image in your heart will be destroyed and you will be far away from him. This was because he only wanted to be the real Yu Wuyou and did not want to return to being the scheming prince of the south. It was all created by you, so you thought of others as worthless. Yet, the person who saved you left such a perfect image in your heart, of course he wouldn’t dare to admit that it was him. ”

“Are you telling the truth?” Chu Shiyu released a fierce light.

“Now that my life is in your hands, why would I lie to you? But it’s useless. You probably don’t know it yet, aren’t you curious why he has been studying herbs all this time? It’s because he has been infected with a type of Gu poison since he was young, and every time it breaks out, it’s like being reborn, being eroded by Gu worms. If you have seen his poison acting up before, you might feel disgusted with him! ”

Murong Jiuqing sneered. Chu Shiyu would never know that other than falling in love with him, Yu Wuyou could never fall in love with anyone else.

His body was not as simple as a Gu poison!

“How can this be? No wonder he has been studying immortal herbs and elixirs all these years just to concoct a cure for his poison. Thus, no matter where he appears, he will leave a strong medicinal smell. ”

She would return to the Heavenly Master just like that. If when the Gu poison had flared up and the Shao family tried to poison him, who could still protect him?

“If I’m not wrong, the poison in his body should be acting up soon.” Mu Rong Jiuqing whispered to her, “If the Gu poison happened to act up when the Shao family was attacking him, then he would undoubtedly die.”

“Why are you telling me this?”

“Because that’s what you want to know, isn’t it?”

Chu Shiyu thought that the Gu poison in Yu Wuyou’s body might act up, and that Shao could act against him at any time. What would he do if the Gu poison acted up?

He pointed his sword at Murong Jiuqing and said harshly, “Today, I’ll let you go. If I find out that you’re lying to me, I’ll slaughter my way to the other side of the hall and tear you apart.”

Mu Rong Jiu Qing looked up and smiled. He then saw Chu Shiyu whistle towards the dark night, and the Fiery Lion leapt out of the roof.

Master Chu jumped onto the back of the Fiery Lion and dashed out of the city like the wind!
