The maid at the door trembled with fear and quickly scurried away to find the person. Demon Sovereign Xuan Li flicked his sleeves and walked outside. Suddenly, Jiang Xunyi said coldly, âXuan Li.â
He stopped, and Jiang Xunyiâs voice continued from behind him. âWere you the one behind the Feng Qiu situation?â
Demon Sovereign Xuan Li stiffened for a moment before he sneered. âAsking me? Hmph, people like you who are cold-hearted and donât know how to love donât know many things.â
The hurrying Deng Xing almost ran into the angrily leaving Demon Sovereign Xuan Li. When he entered the room, his face filled with shock at the sight of the sick youth leaning on the headboard of the bed. âAiyo, youâre so tiny, and yet you can make the demon sovereign who conceals his emotions this angry. You sure are talented. How are you more bloody than a murder victim after you two went to bed together?â
Jiang Xunyi ignored him and lazily raised his broken hand. He got up, raised his chin and motioned for the other party to deal with it.
Deng Xing originally saw his handsome appearance and assumed he was Demon Sovereign Xuan Liâs new male pet from who-knows-where. However, he now saw that Jiang Xunyiâs injury was not the same as the âinjuryâ he imagined. He was confronted by a stranger in a humiliating situation, but he was not angry, nor did he flinch at all. Instead, he was calm, as if the blood on his body had only been accidentally thrown up.
Deng Xing couldnât help but show some interest in him, and while trying to connect the bones in his wrist for him, he said, âI couldnât tell, but you are a man. However, I advise you to be smarter, otherwise you will be behind when you endure hardship. No one can run away from the demon sovereign once he wants them.â
Jiang Xunyiâs expression was indifferent. Deng Xing talked for a long time but still couldnât get a response. He almost thought that this person was mute when he suddenly moved his head over and mindlessly said, âYou do a good job of connecting bones.â
His voice suddenly sounded out, startling Deng Xing. His hand shook, and he almost misplaced Jiang Xunyiâs wrist bone. âAiyo, you are going to scare me to death. These are your bones; if anyone gets hurt, it would be you, so be careful! Be careful, or else I will just leave you here.â
Jiang Xunyi smiled unclearly. He had a great smile: there was a small dimple on his cheek, and even Deng Xing couldnât bear to say anything. However, who knew that he wasnât done speaking. âIâm not afraid. If you dare, Iâll kill you. â
Deng Xing was taken aback by his gloomy tone, then he couldnât help but laugh. âYoung man, do you have a wound on your head? Youâre just skin and tender flesh. Iâm afraid that if I give you a sword, you wonât even be able to hold it, can you? HahahaâŠâ
The laughter stopped abruptly. Jiang Xunyiâs hand was already clasped to the opponentâs throat, and he said lightly, âYou donât believe it? Then why donât you feel it? â
Although Deng Xing was not expecting this, people who have been with the demons for a long time knew not react too slowly. However, even if he instantly used three or four moves to block and avoid the attack, it was as if he could not affect Jiang Xunyi at all. That white, jade-like hand had already landed on the most vulnerable part of his body without any hindrance.
In that moment, he felt real killing intent and a desire for blood, a feeling that didnât seem to be able to come from such a person and yet was natural
The wound medicine Xuan Li applied to Jiang Xunyiâs wound contained spiritual energy-suppressing ingredients. Fortunately, the two people had struggled for a long time, and the effect of the medicine had worn off enough for him to make a bluff to frighten Deng Xing. Deng Xing only felt that the strength of the hand on his throat was getting stronger and stronger, and finally, he couldnât help but scream dumbly, âQuick, stop! Cough⊠Are you crazy? If you kill me⊠Cough Cough cough, you tooâŠâ
Jiang Xunyi said coolly, âItâs okay. I will lose my life if you die. You earned it.â
Deng Xingâs face turned purple, and he burst into tears. âWhat do you want?!â
If what he had transmigrated into was a comic book, Jiang Xunyiâs entire upper face would be covered in shadows at this time in a sinister way. He kept the tone of an old grandmother telling ghost stories to her little grandson as he asked Deng Xing, âDo you know what my name is?â
Deng Xing could hardly speak. âYouâre called grandfather! Youâre called king! You are my ancestor! Good guy, forgive me! Please let me go!â
Jiang Xunyi said briefly, âMy name is Jiang Xunyi.â
Once these three words entered his ears, Deng Xing opened his mouth suddenly. He almost forgot about life and death as his eyes almost popped out of his eyes â the man Demon Sovereign Xuan Li caught turned out to be him! He want to sleep with this malignant star? Gosh!
Jiang Xunyi looked at his expression and said leisurely, âYou actually know me. How about this, have you read the ăCorpse Scriptureă? Has the section compiled by Xunyi been seen by the eyes of a master evil doctor? I heard that you are not only good at medical skills, but also all kinds of evil formations. Tsk tsk, you really cannot judge by appearance.â
Deng Xing whispered, âYou actually know me? How did you know?!â
A thin layer of cold sweat covered Jiang Xunyiâs forehead. He tried his best to force his arm not to tremble and quickly shouted, âI am asking the questions right now! Deng Xing, did you open the thirteenth orifice in those bodies? Whatâs with burying a dead body in a wooden box?!â
Deng Xing looked at him as if he had seen a ghost, shocked. His name was quite famous a few decades ago, but he was famous for fearing both death and enemies seeking revenge. He had already not appeared in public for a long time. It turned out that he had taken refuge with the demons. When he was summoned today, he just thought that he was only going to take a look at a male petâs injury, and he even felt that Demon Sovereign Xuan Li was making a fuss over something small. He didnât expect to meet this malignant star, nor did he expect to be recognized through his unique bone-fixing technique. He was truly unlucky.
He was too familiar with Jiang Xunyiâs name. He knew of both members of the Dual Jades of the Spirit Stage. Although they are of decent origins and were as beautiful as Pan An[1], they behaved ruthlessly and absolutely did not joke around. When he was exposed, he suddenly lost the confidence to deny anything. He murmured to himself for a moment and uncertainly said, âL-let go of me first.â
Jiang Xunyi was indifferently. âJust speak.â
Deng Xing didnât dare to bargain anymore, so he had no choice but to speak with a bitter face.. âOkay, Iâll talk, Iâll talk. Donât kill me after I say â Young Master Jiang, you are a learned man; the ăCorpse Scriptureăis very well compiled, especially the âQi Aperture Theoryâ. After reading that chapter, I was greatly inspired. At that time, a new batch of corpses was discovered here. All of them were buried in the ground by volcanic ash and suffocated to death. Not only were the corpses perfectly preserved, the spirit and remaining energy have not yet dissipated. Such corpses are too rare. I wondered if all of these people could be immortal as long as they could use their thirteenth-qi orifice⊠âŠâ
The corner of Jiang Xunyiâs lips rose slightly, and he raised his brows with a sneer and smile. âThen whatâs up with the stitches on their bodies?â
You even know this?! Deng Xing completely dispelled the idea of ââfooling him and replied obediently, âLater, the Demon Sovereign resurrected. Everything was ready, but his body was destroyed by some bastardâŠâ
Jiang Xunyi said, âYeah, I know this. It was Yun Xie that chopped him into pieces.â
Deng Xing: ââŠâ
He has been with the demon race for so long that he had already regarded himself as one of them. It is normal to add curses when mentioning those who opposed Xuan Li, but he did not expect that he had hit the gun[2] â who didnât know that the Dual Jades of the Spirit Stage always advanced and retreated together with a relationship that has been good since they were children. He had cursed Yun Xie in front of Jiang Xunyi, which was no different from cursing him, too. âI, I⊠Aiyo, Young Master Jiang, look at my cheap mouth. Iâm talking nonsense, nonsense.â
Jiang Xunyi smiled insincerely. âWhat is it? Your cursing was pretty good. Yun Xie is indeed a jerk. You can tell him in person next time.â
What a joke. The only person in this world who dared to scold Yun Xie in person probably the one in front of him. Deng Xingâs expression was bitter. âItâs me who failed to speak correctly. Sect Master Yun is the most wise and martial artist, and itâs me who is a bastard.â
Jiang Xun was unbothered. âGo on.â
Deng Xing quickly scrambled to continue. âMaster Jiang, you are an expert, so you must understand that although the demon sovereign can possess another personâs body, if it is not his original body, he will be restricted in many ways. I found a wayâŠâ
Before he could finish talking, Jiang Xunyi said, âI understand. So, the people in that village were all your experiment subjects, and you succeeded. Not only did they survive, your demon sovereign was also revived. Deng Xing is very good doctor.â
Deng Xing hurriedly said with a smile, âDonât mention it, donât mention it. Master Jiang, you see, I have said everything I should say, and I dare not say a word to deceive youâŠâ
Jiang Xunyi smiled and moved the hand that had been on the opponentâs throat before patting his face. âWell, youâve done well, I will spare your life. Doctor Deng, you are a wise man. Naturally, you should know, if you dare to go out and mention this to others, then I will tell Xuan Li that you have told me everything. Why donât you guess? Will he eat you raw?â
Deng Xing quickly cried out. He promised, âDonât worry, Master Jiang, this beggar is not a fool. I will definitely not say anything.â
Jiang Xunyi finally nodded. Deng Xing, like a rabbit, ran towards the door.
âWait.â Jiang Xunyiâs voice drifted over, and Deng Xingâs whole body immediately stiffened. He turned his head back with an expression that showed he wanted to run, but was afraid.
Jiang Xunyi raised his hand, his expression flat. âYou have not finished treating the injury, continue.â
