Fu Jinyu narrowed her eyes slightly. "Xu Mu, you've wanted to hold her for a long time, haven't you?"
"Fu Jinyu! Can you stop being jealous? Can you let me get in first? I'm about to die!"
Li Chenshuang was still one meter away from where Xu Mu and the others were. But she was completely out of strength.
"Jealous? Fuck you!"
Fu Jinyu cursed angrily.
Xu Mu spread his hands with a smile. "Sister Empress, should I still save her?"
"Save her! Since you want to hold her, I'll grant you this wish!"
Fu Jinyu folded her arms and glanced down at Li Chenshuang.
As the Empress of the Heavenly Demon Clan, she was definitely not a fool.
Just as Li Chenshuang said, there were many dangers in this formation. With a powerful person like her around, it would definitely increase the chance of survival.
Li Chenshuang was more than a dozen years older than her, but they were of the same generation.
She had heard from her father since she was a child that there was a female genius in the Jiuli Clan with comparable talent to hers.
Since then, she had known the name Li Chenshuang.
Xu Mu took out a black robe from his storage space, twisted it into a rope, and threw it towards Li Chenshuang.
Li Chenshuang grabbed one end of the black robe with both hands and was finally pulled to Xu Mu's side.
Actually, within a one - meter - diameter area, if the three of them stood, it would be completely enough.
However, if they stood face - to - face or back - to - back and couldn't move, it would feel even more awkward.
But if they sat, it would be a bit crowded.
After all, besides their butts, they also had to put their legs down.
After Xu Mu pulled Li Chenshuang in, he first supported her to sit up.
But her body went limp uncontrollably and finally fell into Xu Mu's arms.
"Xu Mu, look!"
Fu Jinyu suddenly pointed at Li Chenshuang's neck, where a purple mark could be seen. "Will this poison of hers be contagious to us?"
Xu Mu first grabbed Li Chenshuang's wrist to feel her pulse and found that she was not poisoned.
He placed his hand on the purple mark on Li Chenshuang's neck and nodded secretly.
He had already understood that this was not poison at all, but a formation.
In other words, it was a formation that created the appearance of poisoning. In fact, she had been attacked by the formation.
This formation was of the seventh level and could cause spiritual attacks. The more qi one released, the greater the impact of the formation on oneself.
The formation could last for a long time, but those with strong spiritual power could break the formation with their will.
Currently, Xu Mu was already a seventh - level formation master. Removing this formation was as easy as breathing.
"Xu Mu, am... am I okay?"
Li Chenshuang asked weakly. She still felt dizzy and her whole body ached.
"It's a bit troublesome."
Xu Mu definitely had to exaggerate her situation.
After all, Li Chenshuang in front of him was the female lead. If he said it was a minor injury and then cured her, she would only be slightly grateful.
But if he exaggerated her injury and then cured her, it would be completely different.
"Troublesome?"
Hearing this, Li Chenshuang's face turned pale. She regretted coming in.
"Xu Mu, there's no need to beat around the bush. Just tell her directly."
Fu Jinyu said from the side.
"To put it simply, it's poisoning plus a formation attack."
Xu Mu started to make up stories. "Her condition mainly depends on her physical fitness. If she's lucky, she can survive. However, the purple toxin accumulated in her body may break out at any time. If she's unlucky, she'll die."
Hearing this, Li Chenshuang's eyes welled up with tears. She was still young. How could she die?
"Is there no way at all?"
Fu Jinyu frowned and asked.
"Well, there is a way, but the price is too high. I don't want to make such a big sacrifice."
Xu Mu said indifferently.
Hearing this, Li Chenshuang grabbed Xu Mu's arm tightly, as if grasping the only straw for survival. "Please save me! What do you need to sacrifice? I'll repay you ten times when we get back!"
Xu Mu took out a stainless - steel bowl from his storage space. There was a dark - green paste - like substance in it. "This is a divine medicine that can devour almost 90% of the toxins in the world. This is what I use to save my life. Can you give me ten times the amount of this divine medicine?"
"Divine medicine..."
Li Chenshuang murmured softly. How could she produce ten times that amount?
"Forget it. Since I've taken it out, I'll help you treat it. You don't need to repay me ten times. You just need to promise me ten things in the future."
Xu Mu said with an air of helplessness. "Who said I'm kind - hearted?"
He also intended to solve it quickly. In case Li Chenshuang broke the formation by her own strength later, all his efforts would be in vain.
"Okay! I promise!"
Li Chenshuang immediately replied.
"You agreed without even thinking. Are you not going to fulfill your promise?"
Xu Mu checked Li Chenshuang's filial piety value towards him, which was still negative.
"Except for things that are unreasonable, I'll agree. For example, if you ask me to die or give birth to your child, it's definitely not okay."
Li Chenshuang said to Xu Mu.
"Don't worry. I'm not interested in you."
Xu Mu shook his head gently. The more he contacted these so - called high - ranking people, the more he could feel Fu Jinyu's goodness.
She was a person who kept her word and didn't play tricks, which others couldn't match.
"Give me the divine medicine. Let me eat it."
Li Chenshuang stretched out her hand.
"Eat what? This divine medicine can only be used externally. It also has its own toxicity."
Xu Mu definitely couldn't let her eat it. These medicines were just the leftovers from his previous alchemy, and the highest grade was only the sixth grade.
If she ate it and didn't feel the powerful effect of the so - called divine medicine, wouldn't his lie be exposed?
Xu Mu took out silver needles from his body and put them in the bowl to let them be covered with the paste. "Is the poisoned area on your body only on your neck?"
"No... no."
Li Chenshuang shook her head. "My arms and my chest seem to be affected too. I can't see the other parts."
"Then what are you waiting for? Take it off!"
Xu Mu said, then looked at Fu Jinyu. "I know what you want to say, but this is an irresistible thing."
Fu Jinyu folded her arms. She really wanted to say just now why every time Xu Mu treated a woman, he asked them to take off their clothes.
However, as Xu Mu said, this was irresistible.
"What? I still have to take it off?"
"You can also choose not to let me treat you. Then we'll both save the trouble."
Xu Mu looked at Li Chenshuang calmly.
Li Chenshuang took a few deep breaths and then said, "Fu Jinyu, help me. I can't even lift my arms."
Fu Jinyu originally wanted to refuse, but she didn't want Xu Mu to take advantage of the situation, so she nodded.
"Don't worry. I'm not interested in you. I like flat - chested girls. In this way, the distance between our hearts will be closer."
Xu Mu said to Li Chenshuang.
Fu Jinyu cursed him for being shameless in her heart. He really pretended well.
She didn't bother to talk nonsense and quickly pulled down Li Chenshuang's skirt.
Xu Mu's eyes immediately narrowed into a slit.
