In a desolate and empty palace road, Chu Yuanbai, who was originally chasing the traces of his "prey", suddenly opened his eyes slightly and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He groaned, staggered a few steps, and knelt on one knee.
"The Love Gu... has indeed been solved!" Chu Yuanbai pressed his chest, but did not show a panicked expression, and only muttered to himself.
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the tall figure who suddenly appeared not far away from him.
The other party was wearing a cloak, covering half of his face. Only a pair of slender red phoenix eyes could be vaguely seen, with rouge at the end of the eyes, like poppies blooming.
"She is indeed a woman, who...are you?"
The other party did not speak, but slowly walked towards him.
As the other party gets closer, the scent of roses becomes more intense in the air.
Chu Yuanbai narrowed his eyes and gently sniffed the fragrance in the air: "This is the fragrance used by the concubines in the palace. What, you are from the palace?"
Such a tall woman... Which concubine in the emperor's harem is so tall?
As the 'woman' got closer and closer, Chu Yuanbai felt an indescribable feeling of suffocation and oppression.
He slowly stood up, staring at the other person warily, turning his hand over, and found a blue bamboo flute.
At the same time, a small snake with a fiery red triangular tip crawled out of his sleeve and spat out the snake's message at the 'woman' in a threatening manner.
The other party paused and looked at Chu Yuanbai coldly.
When Chu Yuanbai saw this, he chuckled: "Ah, don't be afraid, this is my king's pet - Xiao Chilian. He likes you very much, sister."
The snake in his sleeve is not an ordinary red snake. It seems to have a strange horn on its head, making it look even more dangerous.
The 'woman' looked at Chu Yuanbai.
Chu Yuanbai touched Chi Lian: "Xiao Chi Lian said that this sister has the smell of the Gu God, a sacred object that has been missing for a long time in our Miao territory."
His smile was so bright that he turned to look at her coldly: "Excuse me, sister, do you know Saint Aguna? Well, she is an old woman now."
As soon as Chu Yuanbai finished speaking, the other party suddenly moved!
Chu Yuanbai immediately waved his flute, turned around to face the opponent, and hit the opponent's waist directly!
His hands were fierce, but his handsome face was smiling: "Sister, what do you want? Tell me carefully. Why did you do it?"
Unexpectedly, he hit the opponent's big hole with one blow, but the opponent did not move at all. When Chu Yuanbai raised his head, he saw 'her' looking down at him, her slender eyes curved.
Chu Yuanbai didn't know why, but he felt a coldness on his back, and then there was a sudden pain in his chest, and a huge force burst out in his chest.
"Bang!" He was kicked directly in the chest by the other party without any skill.
And with such a crude and direct blow without any skill, this 'woman' actually kicked him away - hard.
"Uh-huh——!" Chu Yuanbai's face changed in pain, and a large mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out.
He even heard the sound of bones in his chest breaking.
"What do I want? I want you to die!" A woman's voice rang out. The cold and charming female voice, although very pleasant to the ears, was filled with undisguised cruelty.
Chu Yuanbai covered his chest with a pale face, his eyes were fierce, and the red snake on his arm flew straight towards the 'woman', opening his fangs and about to bite her neck.
But the next moment, Chi Lian was pinched by a slender white hand.
The 'woman' looked disdainfully at the little snake twisting its body angrily in her hand: "Whatever it is, take it out to show your shame..."
But the next moment, the little snake suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a stream of liquid towards the person who was choking it.
Although the 'woman' covered most of it with her cloak, some splashes still hit her arms and the back of her hands.
Moreover, the cloak on her body suddenly seemed to be corroded, with many holes appearing. She immediately shook off the snake and tore off the damaged fabric at the same time!
Chu Yuanbai said with a half-smile: "Chi Lian's poison will be like maggots attached to the bones when it touches the skin. There is no solution. If I die, you will die miserably!"
The 'woman' moved for a moment and looked at the back of her hand that was splashed with venom, but found nothing unusual. 'She' was thoughtful.
But because the cloak was damaged, Chu Yuanbai had already seen 'her' face!
He opened his eyes slightly and said in disbelief: "You...it's you!"
This 'woman' is actually the... scholar next to Ming Lanruo?!
Chu Yuanbai's mind was confused for a moment. What on earth is going on?!
Isn't that scholar a man? Could it be...could it be...
"We have all determined that the host of the Gu God must be a woman. Who would have thought that you could disguise yourself as a man and hide in Concubine Ming's house. No one would doubt you, only Ming Lanruo. You are really good at it!"
No wonder Ming Lanruo didn't notice Xu Xiuyi was poisoned just now!
Chu Yuanbai covered his chest, slowly got up, stared at the 'woman' in front of him, and casually wiped the blood stains from the corners of his lips with the back of his hand.
He thought he had discovered the truth!
But the beautiful 'woman' looked at him like she was an idiot and slowly walked towards him: "Idiot, you are really good at causing trouble."
It’s really frustrating...
Every step 'she' took made Chu Yuanbai feel suffocated and dangerous.
Chi Lian didn't pose any threat to 'her'!
That's right, if 'she' is the true host of the Gu God, except for aphrodisiacs and poisons that will not directly harm the body, all other poisons are immune to it!
For the first time, Chu Yuanbai felt something like 'fear' in the other party.
Tsk, I was pecked in the eye by an eagle while hunting!
He gritted his teeth in a self-deprecating tone, flicked his backhand, and instantly released more than a dozen hidden weapons, heading towards the opponent's door, then turned around and tried to escape.
Unexpectedly, after only two steps, he was grabbed by the shoulders, pressed against the wall, and lifted up by his neck.
"Cough cough cough..." Blood overflowed from the corners of Chu Yuanbai's lips. He struggled instinctively and looked at the person holding his neck with one hand with scarlet eyes.
Is this what it looks like to have the true power of the 'Gu God'? Even if she is a woman, her skills and internal strength are so terrifying?!
Looking from this angle, the 'woman' holding her neck had bright red lips, a coldly beautiful face, and a pair of slender eyes looking at him indifferently.
As if he is just a humble ant!
But he is not an ant!
"Sister, if you kill...kill...me...Aguna...you will die too!" Chu Yuanbai's face turned red in pain.
, but showed a bright smile. This chapter has been completed!
