Chapter 164 The bite is really ugly
Chapter 164 The bite is really ugly
He looked at the half-closed eyes and couldn't help but reach out to touch her face. Unexpectedly, Shen Qiao raised her hand without any warning and pierced his eyebrows with a water knife condensed from spiritual power.
Song Shi was startled by her action, but his eyes softened when he saw the blood oozing from her neck. This seemingly fatal blow seemed to have no effect on him at all. He touched the strands of hair hanging down from her forehead and said, "This won't kill me."
"I know."
Shen Qiao answered calmly. She gripped the hilt of the sword, and silver spiritual power poured out and instantly flowed into Song Shi's mind.
Song Shi's expression froze for a moment. He looked at Shen Qiao in disbelief, "You should know that soul magic has no effect on me..."
"Who told you this is soul magic?" When Shen Qiao raised his eyes again, there was a flash of fire in his eyes.
Song Shi's pupils dilated instantly as he stared at her. He finally came to his senses and tried to sense Shen Qiao, only to discover that her spiritual power hadn't weakened at all. "No, it's impossible! The poison has clearly seeped into her skin and flesh. How could she not be poisoned?!"
Shen Qiao looked at him with uncontrollable fear in his eyes, "Answer my question, where is that ghost?"
Song Shi's incredible expression froze for a moment, and then he smiled again, "What are you going to do if I don't tell you?"
"I'm giving you a chance."
The lack of fear in her tone made Song Shi unsure whether she really had other ideas or was just bluffing, so he hesitated for a moment.
"It's useless even if you find it," he said.
"Si Huangxu has sent people to defend the city tightly, and the poison has now been transferred to the soldiers. I haven't found an antidote for that poison yet."
He kept observing Shen Qiao's reaction and said, "It's too late now."
These desperate words didn't seem to cause much emotional fluctuation in Shen Qiao. She just said calmly, "I just need you to answer my questions."
Song Shi fell silent again. He would rather Shen Qiao was angry like he was just now. At least this emotion was caused by him.
But now, her indifferent attitude seemed to remind him at any time...
Jiang Quechen is really dead... He is the only one left in the world.
A sadness welled up in his eyes, and he gave a wry smile before finally letting go.
"South of the city, Prince Xu's Mansion."
After getting the answer he wanted, Shen Qiao let go of his hand and turned to leave.
Song Shi reluctantly reached out to stop him, but found that he could not move at all.
He was stunned for a moment. He had been hit by this trick once when the two of them fought just now, so he had deliberately prepared for it. Why was he still...
The chill that spread across his face reminded him of the broken ice that Shen Qiao had cut through with his first sword.
So... that's the real killer move?
"Chief." He spoke softly and called out to Shen Qiao who was already at the door.
"I disappoint you, don't I?"
Shen Qiao paused slightly, but did not turn back.
"Yes."
This response made him laugh while crying.
At least at this moment, she answered as the patriarch.
At least...he got to see her.
Enough is enough.
He comforted himself, slowly closed his eyes, lowered his head, and fell silent in the ice.
After leaving the yard, Shen Qiao walked straight back.
A large number of servants from the mansion had fainted on the road, but Shen Qiao had checked and found that these people were only controlled by soul magic and were not poisoned. They would be fine after waking up.
As soon as Shen Qiao walked into the front hall and pushed the door open, he saw an extra person in the room.
"Oh?"
The middle-aged man in a bright yellow robe looked at Shen Qiao who pushed the door open and raised his eyes slightly, with a look of frivolity and displeasure in his eyes.
His gaze finally landed on the bloodstain on the back of Shen Qiao's neck, and he sneered, "It seems like Song Shi is letting me off a lot."
When did this person appear here?
Shen Qiao became alert. She hadn't noticed anyone else was in the room until she pushed the door open.
"Have you had enough of the show?" Wang You suddenly spoke, interrupting the deadlock between the two.
Si Huangxu gave him a gloomy look, as if he was pondering something. But in the end, he chose to put the question aside and changed his attitude. "Well, in that case, I'll leave the affairs of the city to you two."
As he spoke, he stood up with a friendly smile on his face and walked towards Shen Qiao.
It seems that it is not just the oppressive feeling of the realm.
Shen probably guessed the identity of this person.
"I am looking forward to your two achievements. After you are done, please come to the palace for a chat." As he said this, he subconsciously raised his hand to pat Shen Qiao's shoulder, but before his hand touched Shen Qiao, he was stopped by an invisible force.
Shen Qiao realized that his hand was suspended in mid-air and didn't move. He glanced at You and immediately reacted and gave You a way out. "Your Majesty has invited me, so I will go."
Si Huangxu raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and then his expression became better. He withdrew his hand and said meaningfully, "Your apprentice knows the current situation better than you do."
After saying this, Si Huangxu passed by Shen Qiao and left.
Shen Qiao looked at Wang You, "Do you know him?"
"I've met him a few times." Wang You stood up. "He wanted to cooperate with Tianxingmen before, but was rejected by Queyue."
Shen Qiao frowned, thinking, "Cooperation? Doesn't he already have the Divine Sky Sect? Why is he targeting our Tianxing Sect...hiss! Why?"
Without waiting for her to finish her analysis, Wang You raised his hand and lifted her chin, asking her to look up and around.
"Tsk, that's an ugly bite."
Shen Qiao couldn't help but twitch his lips when he realized what he was talking about. "Does this thing still have a distinction between ugly and beautiful?"
Wang You pondered this for a while, then nodded. "No. Divide by person."
Shen Qiao didn't understand what he meant. She just tried to apply the cool hand to the wound on the back of her neck. Although it didn't touch her skin, the cool spiritual power still made her shiver.
She wanted to hide, but Wang You quickly held her shoulders again.
"almost done."
She sighed helplessly and endured it for the time being.
"By the way, we have to go to Prince Xu's mansion later. Song Shi said that the ghost is imprisoned there."
Wang You lowered his eyes and looked at her, responding faintly.
"I just heard that the emperor intended to pretend that he didn't know about this?" Shen Qiao thought about it seriously and finally nodded.
"Indeed, although these things were all caused by him, we haven't found any evidence of his involvement yet. If he intends to stay out of it, given his status as the emperor of the human race...it's really not easy for him to do anything directly."
A single move can affect the entire body. The prince is still young. If this bastard emperor is killed at this time, the human race will lose its order and there will be chaos.
But if we allow such a madman to rule the country, the Chu State will probably not go far in the future.
"Who said it's not good to just do something?"
