Chapter 183 So Wanxun likes to see me injured!
The Demon Realm, Maple Forest.
The Vermilion Bird fluttered weakly a few times before finally landing on the ground, motionless, with only faint undulations indicating that it was still alive.
A black figure stood beside Suzaku, wearing a black blindfold that obscured his expression.
"Boom!" A sword blade struck the dark figure instantly, but the figure merely tilted its body slightly to avoid the blade.
"Si Jinchuan, we meet again. I haven't avenged myself for locking me in the illusion last time!" Xie Wanxun jumped off Luo Ze Sword and said coldly.
Si Jinchuan turned his head, removed the blindfold, and his eyes were full of joy: "Wanxun, we meet again. You've come to sign a contract with the Vermilion Bird, haven't you? It's right here now, come on." He stepped aside and pointed to the Vermilion Bird lying on the ground, barely alive.
"Who told you to make a move! What I, Xie Wanxun, want to do is none of anyone else's business." Xie Wanxun frowned, and without hesitation, she thrust the Luoze sword in her hand toward Si Jinchuan.
Stab!
The sword pierced Si Jinchuan's abdomen, and blood gushed out, staining the maple leaves on the ground red.
A sense of vengeful pleasure flashed through Xie Wanxun's mind, and her hand holding Luo Ze's sword trembled slightly.
She looked up and met Si Jinchuan's face. Si Jinchuan's lips curled up, his brows relaxed, and his face was filled with obvious joy and ecstasy.
"Hahaha!" Si Jinchuan grasped Xie Wanxun's sword-wielding hand, his laughter echoing throughout the maple forest. He pulled the Luoze sword from his abdomen, and blood gushed from the wound like a spring, the smell of blood filling the air.
"So Wanxun likes to see me injured!" Si Jinchuan's tone rose, his eyes gleaming with excitement, his scarlet pupils turning golden: "Then how could I let Wanxun down!"
After speaking, he forcefully plunged the sword he had drawn back into his abdomen, again and again.
"Enough!" Xie Wanxun screamed, her crimson robes stained with warm blood, her cheeks also streaked with it. Her body trembled slightly, and looking at the nearly crazed Si Jinchuan before her, she managed to squeeze out a few words: "You're a truly incomprehensible madman!"
Si Jinchuan gently wiped the blood from Xie Wanxun's cheek and said tenderly, "So what if she's crazy? As long as you care about her, that's enough."
Xie Wanxun slapped Si Jinchuan's hand away and said coldly, "Don't touch me, you're dirty!"
Si Jinchuan's eyes widened, his whole body trembled, as if struck by lightning.
"Haha!" Si Jinchuan looked up and laughed self-deprecatingly. He slumped to the ground, seemingly having exhausted all his strength.
Xie Wanxun retrieved the Luoze Sword, carefully wiped it clean, and then walked towards the Vermilion Bird.
Zhuque was so eager to escape Si Jinchuan's clutches that it quickly agreed to Xie Wanxun's request and signed a contract with Xie Wanning.
Xie Wanxun took out a teleportation talisman and was about to leave. She felt nauseous just being in the same place as Si Jinchuan, and all she wanted to do was get away as soon as possible.
But then they heard Si Jinchuan's ashamed voice.
"Wanxun, I'm sorry. I never thought of betraying you. I've always only loved you."
"I went too far with what Xie Wanning did, but her body should belong to you, and I won't change my mind."
"I'm sorry, I caused you to fall into demonic possession, but there's nothing I can do to help."
Xie Wanxun felt a pain in her chest. Si Jinchuan's three short sentences almost caused Xie Wanxun to be controlled by her inner demons.
Sure enough, whether in this life or the next, Si Jinchuan always knew how to reopen her wounds.
"Si Jinchuan, stop being so self-righteous. You love me? What a joke! If you hadn't betrayed me, would I have been captured by the Qingyun Sect?" Xie Wanxun grabbed Si Jinchuan's collar and shook him violently twice.
Si Jinchuan turned his head away, not daring to look Xie Wanxun in the eye.
Xie Wanxun directly pinched his chin, turning his head back to meet Si Jinchuan's golden eyes, which reminded her of Ye Qianqian's golden eyes.
"You are a follower of the Heavenly Dao, aren't you! Everything you do is for the Heavenly Dao. So where does this love come from? It's nothing but deception and exploitation." Xie Wanxun shouted sharply, her scarlet eyes growing brighter and brighter as her inner demons began to control her mind.
"Yes." Si Jinchuan nodded, but shook his head: "But I have really fallen in love with you, Wanxun."
Xie Wanxun laughed in exasperation. She pushed Si Jinchuan away and silently recited a calming mantra to suppress her inner demons.
"puff!"
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Xie Wanxun collapsed weakly to the ground.
Her inner demons were turning against her, and she was about to lose control of them.
Si Jinchuan stepped forward to help Xie Wanxun up, but Xie Wanxun refused.
"You're the one who caused me to fall into demonic ways. Are you finally satisfied now, you lackey of the Heavenly Dao!" Xie Wanxun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, but he couldn't wipe it clean no matter what he did. Blood kept gushing out of his mouth.
Si Jinchuan didn't dare to meet Xie Wanxun's gaze. He could only whisper "I'm sorry," but there was nothing he could do.
“You are now the chosen one, and I’m not killing you because you’re still useful. So, promise me one thing, and I’ll forgive you for the stupid things you did to Wan Ning.” Xie Wanxun clenched her fists, as if she had made a huge decision. She felt as if saying those words was like being slashed by a dagger again and again.
Forgive? Xie Wanxun wished she could tear Si Jinchuan to pieces, but now she had to spare his life. Nothing could make Xie Wanxun feel so distressed.
"What is it?" Si Jinchuan's eyes lit up, his voice filled with delight.
"Don't hurt Xie Wanning anymore," Xie Wanxun said, emphasizing each word.
“Okay,” Si Jinchuan said without hesitation.
"The Heart Demon Curse." Xie Wanxun managed to squeeze out a few words, her head throbbing so badly that she could barely speak.
But Si Jinchuan stood up and shook his head resolutely: "No."
Xie Wanxun was furious. She slammed her fist on the ground and shouted, "How dare you!"
“The inner demon curse has no effect on me. I serve the Heavenly Dao, and it monitors my every move. It is impossible for me to successfully establish an inner demon curse, especially for Xie Wan Ning,” Si Jinchuan explained patiently.
This calmed Xie Wanxun down, and she also thought of Si Jinchuan's identity.
"Why don't we make a blood oath with Gu? That way we can avoid the Heavenly Dao's surveillance," Si Jinchuan suggested, glancing at Xie Wanxun every now and then.
Xie Wanxun's face darkened, but she didn't say anything.
The Blood Oath Gu uses blood as a medium to connect the souls of the Gu user and the Gu user. Once the Gu user breaks the oath, they will suffer the punishment of their soul being annihilated.
This was a good way to ensure that Si Jinchuan wouldn't harm Xie Wanning, but the thought of connecting her soul with Si Jinchuan made Xie Wanxun feel so uncomfortable that she felt like she was going to vomit blood.
However, this is the best solution at the moment. If it weren't for the interference of Heaven, a simple inner demon curse could have solved the problem.
Xie Wanxun closed her eyes and nodded.
“Let’s do it that way!” Si Jinchuan said excitedly.
Xie Wanxun used her sword to slash open her palm, and a thin thread formed from blood touched Si Jinchuan's forehead, beginning to connect Xie Wanxun's and Si Jinchuan's souls.
This is just a Gu poison; the two souls cannot communicate. Only the person who cast the Gu poison can sense the life or death of the person who was poisoned.
With the Blood Oath Gu established, Si Jinchuan smiled at Xie Wanxun.
Xie Wanxun turned her head away, not even glancing at Si Jinchuan. She took out a teleportation talisman and prepared to leave.
Si Jinchuan called out to Xie Wanxun: "Wanxun, are you going to find the next divine beast? I know that the divine beast Xuanwu is also in the demon kingdom, and it has connections with the demon emperor."
But Xie Wanxun suddenly turned around, a look of confusion on her face: "What Xuanwu? Is Xuanwu one of the Four Divine Beasts?"
"Wanxun, everyone knows that the Four Divine Beasts include the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise!" Si Jinchuan asked, puzzled.
Xie Wanxun stood frozen in place, a sharp pain shooting through her soul.
"what!"
