CHAPTER 738: CHAPTER 748 YIN YANG BELL ANOMALY

Girls, none can resist loving beauty, and women are naturally timid.

Princess Zi Qiong imagined herself transforming into a zombie, which gave her a sudden chill of horror.

Scaring people could scare someone to death.

Scaring oneself, that’s even more terrifying.

Princess Zi Qiong heard that everyone else had already been detoxified successfully, only she was still suffering in agony. A day passed, and her fingernails had grown significantly longer and sharper.

Her teeth were also unbearably itchy.

"Sister, why are there some black lines appearing on both sides of your temples? They look as terrifying as the ones on our great-grandfather!" Princess Zi Yi suddenly exclaimed.

"Ah... Is it true? Don’t scare your sister!" Princess Zi Qiong magically produced a small copper mirror and took a look at herself.

When she saw the black demonic pattern around her temples, she was truly terrified.

She couldn’t maintain her princess-like aloofness anymore.

It seemed that without actively asking that jerk Chu Feng, he wouldn’t come over to detoxify her again.

But for Princess Zi Qiong to personally ask him, how could she lower her dignity?

Moreover, with the corpse poison unresolved, she dared not leave the medicated tub.

"Little sister, go find Chu Feng and ask him to come over and check on me quickly!" Princess Zi Qiong ordered her younger sister to seek Chu Feng’s aid.

Princess Zi Yi, clever and quirky, looked at her older sister for a moment and suddenly laughed.

"Sister, did you have a falling out with Alchemist Chu?" She was very clever and understood her sister’s character well.

Alchemist Chu, a man of great abilities, naturally had a valiant character.

Sister trying to pressure him with her princess status was asking for trouble.

Even the Eight Virtuous Princes treated Chu Feng with utmost respect.

"Just go! Stop asking so many questions! Hurry!" Princess Zi Qiong’s face burned with urgency.

Princess Zi Yi knew she had guessed right and, covering her mouth, giggled as she went to find Chu Feng.

About over an hour later, Chu Feng once again entered the secret chamber where Princess Zi Qiong was.

"I heard Princess Zi Qiong is about to turn into a refined corpse?" Upon entering the secret chamber, Chu Feng wore a teasing expression. Staring at Princess Zi Qiong’s pretty face, he nodded seriously, "Hmm, indeed, you are about to become a refined corpse!"

"You, you must save me..." Princess Zi Qiong was scared out of her wits, no longer able to maintain her composure, let alone put on airs.

She finally relented, pleading to Chu Feng for rescue.

"Save you? I wouldn’t dare. If I were to treat and touch the princess, and later they chopped off my head, I couldn’t bear that responsibility," Chu Feng deliberately taunted her.

"I forgive you!" Princess Zi Qiong bit her vermilion lips, struggling to utter four words.

Chu Feng stopped teasing her.

He immediately set about locating the meridian where the corpse poison was concentrated.

Luckily, Chu Feng quickly found the location of the concentration of the corpse poison, though the spot was somewhat unusual.

Since she had already declared him innocent, Chu Feng made no further ado.

"Ah... what, what are you trying to do?" Princess Zi Qiong couldn’t help but let out a scream.

"Don’t move, I’m going to drain the poisoned blood!" Chu Feng aimed the dagger at a point and made a cut.

She felt a sharp pain on her back, followed by a rush of fresh blood.

An hour later, Chu Feng walked out of the secret chamber.

Both of them felt somewhat awkward, and they probably wouldn’t see each other again in the future. Especially Princess Zi Qiong, who has always been shy. The events that occurred in the secret chamber today would probably remain unforgettable to her for a lifetime.

After Chu Feng helped her expel the poison blood, she felt completely refreshed.

Aside from still feeling a bit weak, she no longer felt uncomfortable. Soon, a maid came in to replace her with new medicinal soup, with steam rising.

...

As night fell, Chu Feng sat in his room, closing his eyes and adjusting his breath. Personally helping six people expel corpse poison was tiresome.

The capable are always tasked with more responsibilities; he was preparing to make a trip to the Xiong Family tomorrow.

If he were to miss the appointment, who knows what kind of crazy actions Xiong Guansui, that young lady, would take?

Li Shishi had visited him twice and, seeing that Chu Feng was always in the midst of cultivation, she did not disturb him.

It was evident that ever since Chu Feng arrived in Vermilion Bird Imperial City, Li Shishi’s smiles had become much more frequent.

Unconsciously, she had started to rely on Chu Feng as her pillar of support.

Her brother had also been well arranged.

Currently working under Chu Jianlan, although his rank was not high, with a decade or so of training, he was sure to be heavily relied upon in the future.

Not to mention anything else, just relying on her close relationship with Chu Feng, Chu Jianlan would not possibly mistreat her brother.

The night grew deeper.

Just past the first watch, an eerie sound arose from outside the residence.

"Ding Ding Ding~!"

Chu Feng, who was in the middle of cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes.

This sound was all too familiar to him and left a deep impression.

If he remembered correctly, it was also in this residence a year ago, in the middle of the night, that he encountered a mysterious corpse chaser controlling a refined corpse with this magic bell.

Soon after, someone specially came to Longevity Hall and bought a hundred Detoxification Pills in one go.

Chu Feng sat still, subconsciously releasing his Divine Sense to investigate.

At this moment, the streets outside were void of pedestrians. In the darkness, two figures appeared outside the residence gate.

"Could they be here for me?" Chu Feng immediately tensed up, instinctively gripping a few Sixth Grade Talisman Pills and silently left the room.

He found that Li Shishi’s room door was tightly shut, with regular breathing sounds coming from inside.

She must be either sleeping or cultivating.

She has not been awakened yet.

Of course, this was also related to her lower level of cultivation.

Currently, Longevity Hall has two experts at the Sword God Level, Beixie National Master and Poison Eye Dragon King, both of whom have advanced to the Sword God Realm.

"Master!"

As Chu Feng just reached the courtyard, both Beixie National Master and Poison Eye Dragon King came up to meet him.

It seems they also noticed the anomaly.

"First find a place to conceal ourselves and observe quietly! I hope they are not targeting Longevity Hall!" Chu Feng’s expression carried a trace of solemnity.

The two dark figures outside the gate emanated a chilling aura, instilling fear.

"Ding Ding~!"

Chu Feng suddenly heard a faint sound of a bell from himself. He was startled and took out an object, which was the Yin Yang Bell once held by Jianyun Emperor, given to him by Master Wei.
