âYoung master Chu Feng, only you can help me.â
As Fumo Xinâer spoke to Chu Feng, her large watery eyes were fixed on him.
That gaze of hers was filled with tender affection, enough to make one feel distressed.
âMiss Xinâer can rest assured. I will give my all to treat you.â
âTake this medicinal pellet first.â
Chu Feng took out a detoxifying medicinal pellet and handed it to Fumo Xinâer.
While it would not be able to remove the poison in her, it would be able to retard the spread of the poison.
Even if there was nothing he could do, Chu Feng still had to try his best to save Fumo Xinâer. No matter what, he couldnât possibly just watch as she died.
âYoung master Chu Feng, itâs useless. That wonât be able to help me. Only you will be able to help me,â As Fumo Xinâer spoke, she actually lowered her head in an embarrassed manner.
Seeing that, Chu Feng thought that she was feeling afraid of death. Because of that, he thought about comforting her.
But, before he could say anything, Fumo Xinâerâs body moved. She actually leaped into Chu Fengâs embrace.
âMiss Xinâer, what are you doing?â
The sudden action caught Chu Feng of guard.
In a panic, Chu Feng not only pushed Fumo Xinâer away, but he even moved back to avoid her.
He looked back to her and grew even more puzzled.
Fumo Xinâer was clearly poisoned. Yet she didnât behave like someone that had been poisoned.
Instead, her face was flushed red. She looked even more womanly.
Most importantly, why had Fumo Xinâerâs attitude become so strange?
Could it have been caused by that poison?
At that moment, Fumo Xinâer looked at Chu Feng with a surprised look.
After being momentarily stunned, she finally spoke. âYoung master Chu Feng, please donât misunderstand. I, Fumo Xinâer am not a casual woman.â
âItâs just that I am poisoned. Because of that, thereâs no alternative.â
âThe Western Ghost Wasps possess two types of poisons.â
âThe poison from their stingers is certain death. It cannot be treated.â
âHowever, if one is bitten by them, there is a way to treat the poison.â
âMerely, the treatment is that one must have sex before the poison activates.â
âOtherwise, once my poison erupts I will die.â
âRight now, thereâs only you and I here. If I want to treat this poison, I can only seek out your help,â Fumo Xinâer said to Chu Feng.
âThis...â
âItâs actually that sort of poison?â Chu Feng was very shocked.
Chu Feng knew of such poisons.
In fact, he had also seen this sort of poison before. Merely, this sort of poison was usually man-made.
Heâd never imagined that there would be a species of creatures that naturally created this sort of poison.
It was the first time he had heard of such a thing.
âYoung master Chu Feng, are you planning to let me die?â
âOr could it be that you think that Iâm unbefitting of you?â
Fumo Xinâerâs wide-open eyes were filled with disbelief.
Evidently, she had not anticipated that Chu Feng would respond with such resistance.
âThatâs not it. With how outstanding Miss Xinâer is how could you be unbefitting?â
âItâs just that sex is something that should be done between a married couple,â said Chu Feng.
âIn that case, I am willing to marry you,â said Fumo Xinâer.
âBut...â Chu Feng didnât finish his words. He felt that the situation had become complicated.
âBut what?â asked Fumo Xinâer.
âMiss Xinâer, please excuse my rudeness. Whilst you are as beautiful as a celestial fairy, I... do not have feelings for you. As such, itâs impossible for me to do that sort of thing with you,â said Chu Feng.
âYou...â Fumo Xinâer became evidently angry after hearing those words.
After all, a girl of her beauty would generally be surrounded by men.
Furthermore, they would be outstanding men too. But no matter how outstanding they were, none of them had been able to enter her eyes.
She had thrown herself into Chu Fengâs arms of her own accord, yet Chu Feng had reacted with such unwillingness. This was a major hit to her aloof ego.
However, no matter how furious she was there was nothing she could do.
After all, this was a matter concerning life and death.
âYoung master Chu Feng, this is a life and death matter. Even if you are to refuse to take responsibility, I will not blame you for it.â
âI can keep what happens here confidential. I will not mention this to anyone.â
âAs long as you also agree to keep things confidential, wouldnât it be fine?â Fumo Xinâer said with a reddened face.
âMiss Xinâer, is there really no other alternative besides that?â Chu Feng was still unwilling.
âChu Feng, you...â
Seeing how resistant Chu Feng was even at that moment, Fumo Xinâer became so furious that she started to stomp her feet.
Unable to persuade Chu Feng, she said, âWhilst there is another method itâs simply too dangerous.â
âWhat method is it? Tell me,â Chu Feng hurriedly said.
âThere are actually two ways to remove the poison. The first method is what I told you about.â
âAs for the second, it would be to proceed for the Western Ghost Waspsâ hive and search for the source of the poison. Perhaps one could find the antidote there.â
âHowever, that method is too dangerous. It would be one thing if the Western Ghost Wasps werenât in their nest. However, if they are, one would simply not be able to retrieve their poisonâs source, and would instead die there,â said Fumo Xinâer.
âItâs still worth a try. Miss Xinâer, do you know where their nest is?â asked Chu Feng.
âYouâll be able to find the nest by following this compass,â Fumo Xinâer said as she grabbed the compass in her hand.
Then, following the compass, Chu Feng and Fumo Xinâer found the Western Ghost Waspsâ hive.
Most fortunately of all, there was not a single Western Ghost Wasp in the enormous hive.
Chu Feng managed to find the wasp poison without any issue. Furthermore, through the wasp poison, he managed to make an antidote.
Once Fumo Xinâer took the antidote, the poison in her body began to disappear rapidly.
After the poison was removed, Chu Feng and Fumo Xinâer continued on with their journey.
Through the guidance of the compass, they finally passed through the spirit formation and left the sealed territory.
However, after passing through the spirit formation, Chu Feng turned around and discovered that he could not see the spirit formation at all.
Even the impression of the surroundings had turned into a completely new world.
Even when he used his Heavenâs Eyes, Chu Feng was unable to find the spirit formation.
If it wasnât for the fact that he had just come out of the sealed territory, even he would question whether or not the sealed territory existed.
âMiss Xinâer, how are we going to return to the sealed territory?â asked Chu Feng.
âI naturally have a way,â said Fumo Xinâer.
âThen Miss Xinâer, please lead the way.â
After Chu Feng finished saying those words, Fumo Xinâer began to guide Chu Feng.
However, Chu Feng discovered an issue. Even though Fumo Xinâer was guiding him the entire time, her enthusiastic attitude from before had changed and she had grown cold.
Even when giving directions she only used her fingers, and did not say anything to him.
This was completely different from her enthusiastic behavior earlier.
This change began the moment Chu Feng had helped treat her poison.
Chu Feng was no fool. He naturally knew the reason for Fumo Xinâerâs change in attitude.
âMiss Xinâer, I am thinking for your good. You shouldnât be angry with me.â
âNow that the poison has been removed and you were able to keep yourself from having to do that sort of thing, keep yourself from being taken advantage of by me, isnât that much better?â Chu Feng said with a beaming smile.
Suddenly, Fumo Xinâer erupted in anger. âHow could I not be angry when you refused to take advantage of me when the opportunity presented itself?!â
âCould it be that you have the same sort of asthetics as my grandma?! Could I also be an ugly person in your eyes?!â
She who had been very gentle earlier was actually shouting at Chu Feng.
Especially her eyes, they were so fierce that they seemed like they wanted to eat Chu Feng alive.
âI swear to heaven, earth and my conscience, there is nothing wrong with my asthetics.â
âMiss Xinâer, you are truly very beautiful. It would not be excessive to say that your beauty is like that of a celestial fairy,â said Chu Feng.
âThen why did you refuse me?â asked Fumo Xinâer.
âItâs not that I refused you. Itâs simply that I donât have feelings for you. Itâs not something that I can explain.â
âI couldnât possibly do that sort of thing to you without having any feelings for you. If that were the case, I would be being too irresponsible. I Chu Feng, am not that sort of person,â said Chu Feng.
âYou... you should just shut up. If it wasnât for the fact that I need your help to save my big brother, Iâd truly want to slap you to death!â
âYouâre simply killing me with anger!â
As Fumo Xinâer spoke, she not only seethed with anger, but her face had also turned purple.
Chu Feng could tell that Fumo Xinâer was truly angry.
However, she could not blame him. After all, it was a matter concerning reputation and integrity.
Chu Feng was a man; what could he possibly fear?
That was a great opportunity to take advantage of her.
The reason why he had refused to do so was truly because he was being considerate of her.
âMiss Xinâer, youâre still young. Perhaps there are still some things you donât understand.â
âHowever, in the future, you will come to a realization.â
âOne day, you will realize the thought and consideration Iâve put into making that decision,â Chu Feng sighed helplessly.
âPah! Stop talking and just shut up! Else Iâll slap you to death right now!â Fumo Xinâer shouted furiously.
Her voice echoed like rolling thunder, and echoed clearly for millions of meters.
âI was wrong. Iâll shut up.â
Chu Feng immediately shut his mouth. He no longer dared to continue to provoke Fumo Xinâer.
He felt that if he were to continue, she would really do something to him.
That said, Chu Feng felt extremely wronged. He had clearly done nothing wrong.
