Chapter 233: Feng Lishu Isn't Dead?

It's Feng Lishu's older brother Qiu!

I looked at Xue Feng in disbelief, and she actually betrayed me!

Upon seeing my gaze, Xue Feng's tears fell even more fiercely.

Her remorse, her shame, were revealed without any concealment.

I forcibly suppressed the black blood surging up my throat again, gritted my teeth and demanded: "When did this happen?"

I didn't understand.

When exactly did this scheme begin to be set up?

Did it start from the very beginning, when we unexpectedly discovered Xue Feng in the Peach Blossom Spring?

Did Feng Lishu bite off her big wing as a self-inflicted ploy?

No, that's not right.

If it were merely a self-inflicted ploy, there would be no need to bite Xue Feng so severely that she could not maintain her human form, nor speak human words.

Moreover, when Feng Lishu encountered us back then, her behavior did not look like that of someone who had long been plotting.

Furthermore, if she were truly a wicked person, the Mystic Cat would not have gotten close to her.

More importantly, Xue Feng and the Ice Silkworm had been together for many days, and nothing had gone wrong.

The change occurred after the destruction of Tafengcun, when I returned from Tafengcun.

Xue Feng suddenly ate the Ice Silkworm.

Yes, that must have been the moment when she received the order.

Among the Feng Clan's usable people, I only have Xue Feng by my side.

Xue Feng had also suffered such severe injuries that she could not transform for a while, remaining in the frozen layer in a dormant state.

To break through this predicament, the best method was to eat the Ice Silkworm, drink the dragon bone blood, let Xue Feng awaken completely, and successfully transform into human form.

Afterwards, she waited for an opportunity to strike at me.

No wonder... back in Tafengcun, after my soul was pulled back into my body, that older brother Qiu never appeared again.

He didn't even pursue me.

It turned out he wasn't not chasing, nor had he given up on me; he simply changed his method.

While thinking, I suddenly felt a chill scraping up from my spine, as if my whole body's blood vessels were frozen, or as if bitten by insects, both cold and painful.

Even more frightening, I saw myself get out of bed.

It was not a command from my own brain.

That chanting voice sounded again in my mind; it was older brother Qiu chanting, controlling me through the Ice Silkworm's gu poison.

This person knows witchcraft.

And witchcraft and gu poison are originally of the same lineage.

By this means, he wants to take me away.

I walked step by step forward, went out of the door, turned and headed toward the Dang Pu's main gate.

Just as I was about to step over the Dang Pu's main gate, Xue Feng suddenly rushed over, spread her arms to block my face, and said: "No, older sister, you…… I……"

She was conflicted, she was torn.

She neither wanted me to come to harm, nor could she abandon her clansmen.

At this moment, perhaps even she herself did not know what she truly wanted in her heart.

After all, she is a young bird, her disposition unstable, easily manipulated.

Actually, at this moment I was not so afraid.

I am destined to return to Cangwu Mountain.

Originally I had two paths to choose: one was for Liu Junyan to go to Hu Shan and discuss the proper affinity with Tang Xun, or to go from the Peach Blossom Spring into Cangwu Mountain.

The other was to let Xue Feng bring me in.

But the person at Hu Shan might not be willing to help again.

And Xue Feng's side is clearly unreliable.

Moreover, I have been under surveillance all along; even if I successfully entered Cangwu Mountain, would I necessarily be safe?

No.

That is a gamble.

A gamble that we have not been discovered.

Otherwise, it would be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

Actually, in the end, there is not much difference from the current situation.

"Heh, overestimating one's abilities!"

A man's angry voice came over; the next moment, Xue Feng let out a piercing shriek, her whole body uncontrollably lunging outward, her back slamming hard against the opposite wall.

She fell heavily, and when she hit the ground she was already vomiting blood.

I unconsciously let out a sigh.

They are all pitiful people.

I stepped one foot out of the Dang Pu's main gate, went down the steps one by one, turned and faced westward.

The sky was still dark; at this time it should still be before three o'clock.

At Xijiekou, that tall and large figure stood there, making hand seals, his mouth still murmuring incantations.

At the moment our eyes met, he reached out his hand toward me.

Meow!

At that moment, the Mystic Cat suddenly darted out of the Dang Pu, its agile form dashing straight toward Xijiekou.

The next moment, in the darkness at Xijiekou, a patch of birds, black and pressing, suddenly surged out.

All kinds of birds.

Without exception, they all stared with scarlet eyes.

They swooped down in trained formation, numbering over a hundred.

The Mystic Cat stepped back one step, and suddenly large swaths of golden scriptures appeared all over its body, forming a scripture barrier in front of it.

Each bird slammed into the scripture barrier, instantly losing head and wings, and their bodies rustled down.

The Mystic Cat could still hold out at first.

But the number of birds was too great, and the scripture barrier's color quickly faded.

The man's chanting voice penetrated the scripture barrier, still drilling straight into my mind, controlling me to walk toward Xijiekou.

Hadn't taken two steps when another figure leapt out from behind, blocking my way.

It was the Red Flag Child.

The Little Guy anxiously said: "Sister, you can't go forward; you must go back to Dang Pu, quick!"

He said, then rushed forward, hugging my body and pushing me back.

He exerted all his strength, pushing me so that I staggered back two steps.

Just then, I suddenly felt a mysterious, indescribable aura that made me want to constantly approach.

I abruptly turned my head toward Dongjiekou.

My turn was too fast; the Red Flag Child, caught off guard, almost fell to the ground.

At the moment I turned, I saw a person I never expected to appear here.

No, I hadn't even thought that she still existed in this world.

The girl standing at Dongjiekou was none other than Feng Li Shu!

Feng Li Shu isn't dead?

How is that possible?!

Back then, in the underground palace of Tafengcun, Feng Li Shu was clearly killed by her older brother Qiu with his own hands!

But now, why is she standing here perfectly fine?

When she finally died, her whole body was rotting, emitting a foul stench, and her appearance was completely unrecognizable.

But now, she standing at Dongjiekou wears a red-black archery outfit, her appearance lovely, her spirits vigorous, just as when I first saw her.

At this moment, time seemed to reverse, and my various entanglements with Feng Li Shu seemed to rise again.

Yes.

How could I not have thought that Feng Li Shu wasn't dead?

If she really died, the birth-bound curse would likewise act on me; I should have died together, right?

But I am still alive, although my soul is incomplete, I often have out-of-body experiences, yet I am truly alive.

But I don't know why, before, whenever I saw Feng Li Shu, I felt utter rejection, wishing to kill her.

But now, seeing her again, she stands there quietly, yet I feel an impulse to rush over and merge with her.

She seems to have a deadly attraction toward me.

She is Feng Li Shu…… yet she seems not to be Feng Li Shu……
