861 You’re Too Cruel
Huanhuan was sent back to her original room.
The room was still the same as before she left. The blanket was not even folded. It was still on the bed, in a mess.
Eggy was not in the room. She was locked up somewhere.
Huanhuan walked out, but the Soul-Devouring Vine wrapped around her ankle and prevented her from continuing.!!
She turned to Xing Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed. She frowned and said, “I want to see Eggy. Let go of me!”
“Eggy is fine now. As long as you behave, she’ll be fine.”
Huanhuan heard the threat in his words.
She was furious, but she couldn’t flare up because of Eggy’s safety. She could only glare at him angrily. “Why did you collude with He Zong to murder me? What did he give you?”
Xing Chen said slowly, “He wants to destroy the temple. I want you. It’s just a mutual benefit.”
“Aren’t you afraid I’ll stab you again?”
Xing Chen looked like he didn’t care. “Go ahead and stab me. You can’t kill me anyway.”
At this point, the corners of his mouth curled into a rather cold smile. “But you have to think carefully. If you stab me but don’t manage to kill me, I’ll put the blame on your daughter later and let her have a taste of being stabbed.”
“Don’t hurt her!” Huanhuan was very agitated. “She’s just a child. She doesn’t know anything. Please let her go!”
“You don’t look like you’re begging.”
Huanhuan knelt down without thinking.
“I beg you, I beg you to let her go!”
Xing Chen raised his hand. “Come here.”
Huanhuan scrambled in front of him, afraid that if she was slower, he would vent his anger on Eggy.
Xing Chen’s palm landed on her head and gently touched it. “If you had been so obedient, I wouldn’t have had to spend so much effort.”
Huanhuan was concerned about her youngest daughter’s safety. “Eggy, she…”
“I told you, as long as you behave, she’ll be fine.”
Huanhuan could only shut her mouth, her heart filled with worry.
Xing Chen slid his fingers down and grabbed her chin. “You look a lot thinner. You don’t look good either. Did you bleed too much?”
Huanhuan was very surprised. “How did you know I’ve bled a lot?”
“If you want all the altars to be able to expel the demonic aura and heal wounds, in addition to the Dance of the Gods, you also have to awaken the totems of all beasts. The prerequisite for awakening the totems is the blood that has fused with the power of the Divine Wood. Moreover, it requires a lot of it.”
At this, Xing Chen let go of her chin and grabbed her right hand.
Huanhuan instinctively wanted to retract her hand. “What are you doing?”
Xing Chen grabbed her wrist and pried open her fingers. He saw that her palm was smooth and flat. There were no wounds.
“The Divine Wood is really powerful. No matter how deep the wound is and how much you bleed, it can heal your wounds quickly.”
Huanhuan struggled hard. “Let go of me!”
Xing Chen took her wrist and brought it in front of him. He opened his mouth and bit down.
His teeth pierced her skin, and Huanhuan trembled in pain.
Blood flowed out of the wound, and it was slurped up by Xing Chen.
Huanhuan pushed him away. “Are you crazy? Let go of me!”
Xing Chen drank several mouthfuls of blood before reluctantly letting go of her.
The wound on her wrist immediately healed visibly.
Xing Chen’s lips were still stained with blood.
The scarlet color was a stark contrast to her pale skin.
It made his face look even more mysterious.
He stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked the blood off his lips. His gaze swept across Huanhuan’s face, revealing a cold aura.
“Rather than wasting your blood on the 10,000 beast totems, why don’t you give it to me?”
Although the power of the Divine Wood could heal wounds automatically, the pain of being bitten did not decrease at all. Huanhuan’s face was pale, and her voice was weak. “I can give you as much blood as you want as long as you let go of Eggy.”
Xing Chen forced her into his embrace and gently stroked her hair. “Why are you so good to everyone but me?”
Huanhuan said slowly, “Everyone else didn’t bully me.”
“I didn’t bully you either.”
“You joined forces with others to invade the 10,000 Beast Temple and hurt my daughter. Isn’t that bullying?”
Xing Chen said unhurriedly, “Then what about the knife you used to stab me with in the abyss?”
Huanhuan tried to argue. “I was trying to protect myself. If you didn’t want to kill me, I wouldn’t have hurt you.”
“You can hurt me just to protect yourself. Why can’t I hurt the people around you just to have you?”
Huanhuan was so angry at his twisted worldview that she couldn’t speak.
Xing Chen hugged her like he was hugging his favorite doll. His eyes were filled with satisfaction. “I’ve given you many chances, but you didn’t cherish them. You lied to me and hurt me again and again. Now, there are only two paths in front of me. I can either kill you or destroy you.”
“…Is there a third option?”
“No.”
Huanhuan wanted to cry. “You’re too ferocious.”
…
Huanhuan thought Xing Chen would kill her.
But that didn’t happen.
He looked like a cat playing with a mouse he’d finally caught.
Perhaps when he got tired of her one day, he would get rid of her without hesitation.
Before that, she had to find a chance to save Eggy!
Huanhuan pushed open the door and walked out. Her feet were entangled by the Soul-Devouring Vine that reached out from behind her.
She had to stop.
Xing Chen asked her where she was going.
“I’ll cook. Even if you’re not hungry, I’m hungry.”
Xing Chen missed her cooking. “I’ll go with you.”
Huanhuan laughed dryly. “No need. I know the way to the kitchen.”
Xing Chen looked at her steadily.
After a moment, Huanhuan compromised. “Alright, we’ll go together.”
Huanhuan walked in front, and Xing Chen followed a step behind her.
Even without looking back, she could feel his burning gaze on her from behind. Her scalp went numb from the stare. She couldn’t help but stop and turn to Xing Chen. “Can you walk beside me?”
She really felt insecure being stared at from behind!
Xing Chen took a step forward as she wanted.
Huanhuan looked around as she walked. She did not see a single divine servant along the way. They were all fully armed beast soldiers.
It seemed that the 10,000 Beast Temple had completely fallen into He Zong’s control.
She wondered how Jian Yi, Leng Xiao, and Shuang Jing were doing.
‘I hope they’re all safe.’
Huanhuan walked into the kitchen and began to wash the rice and cook.
She specially made food for the three of them. When she was done, she said to Xing Chen, “Can I send this to Eggy?”
Xing Chen ate her cooking and was in a good mood. He agreed readily. “I’ll go with you later.”
Huanhuan quickly thanked him.
