After receiving Yun Xiao's answer, Mu Ji finally cared more about his precious grandson. There was so much commotion in the room just now, and he didn't know if it had any impact on Chi Yan who was in a special state.
"he?"
Hearing this, Yunxiao also turned his attention to Chi Yan, who was motionless on the bed. After sensing it, he couldn't help but smile: "Looking at his unshakable appearance, what can happen?"
After getting the answer he wanted, a big stone finally fell from Mu Ji's heart, and at the same time, his gratitude to the man next to him became even stronger.
"but……"
Just when Mu Ji was calming down, he heard a change in the words of the young man in rough clothes next to him, and his body trembled, fearing that the other person would say something detrimental to Chi Yan.
"I always feel that when Chi Yan wakes up this time, it may be different from before, but I can't tell what exactly is different!"
Yun Xiao didn't notice Mu Ji's look, so he expressed the doubts in his heart. Even if he returned to the level of a holy-level advanced pulse refiner, there were some things that he couldn't sense.
When Yun Xiao was expelling poison from Chi Yan before, he had already sensed something was wrong. It was a certain aura emanating from Chi Yan's bones, which seemed to be causing a radical change in him.
As for what this change was, Yun Xiao could only blur his eyes. Xiao Wu, who was the only one who had some accurate guess, was tight-lipped, so he could only give an ambiguous answer.
"Don't worry, Great Elder. This shouldn't be a bad thing. It may be Chi Yan's good fortune, but this time may not be too short!"
Yun Xiao turned his head and saw Mu Ji's worried look, and immediately spoke out to comfort him. These words finally made Mu Ji feel relieved again. Now, he is already very considerate to this young human being.
Trusted unconditionally.
"Huo Ying and Mo Xun should also pay attention. I guess they won't give up easily. After all, I am the last straw for the third elder of the Imperial Palace!"
Withdrawing his attention from Chi Yan, a glimmer of light flashed in Yun Xiao's eyes, and what he said next shocked Mu Ji's heart, but boundless confidence surged in his heart.
"Don't worry, I will stay here until Chi Yan wakes up. What happened tonight will never happen again!"
After Mu Ji finished speaking, he directly found a place in the room to sit down cross-legged. It seemed that he had made up his mind not to even leave the room. This could be regarded as personal protection.
As for the shattered door, no one has come to repair it for the time being, but this will be more conducive to observing the situation in the courtyard. There must be no one except Huo Ying and Mo Xun who dares to come here to cause trouble.
Mu Ji's actions also made Yun Xiao feel relieved, but the light in his eyes was still shining, secretly thinking that the third elder of the Imperial Palace, or Huo Ying, might not give up so easily, right?
Yun Xiao clearly knows how powerful the Heavenly Blood Devouring Poison is. If you are exposed to this poison without an antidote, no matter whether you are a cultivator in the Holy Realm or the Cave Nether Realm, your whole body will be ravaged by all the flesh and blood after a period of time.
, just like Chi Yan before.
This may be a blessing in disguise for Chi Yan, but for Mo Xun, it is a real dove bone poison. Once the poison completely breaks out, even if he is a high-level holy-level medical practitioner, he will be unable to save his life.
Therefore, Yun Xiao has reason to believe that for his last life-saving straw, Mo Xun will definitely take action again, or else he will end up losing his life, or he just doesn't know what his next action will be?
However, with Mu Ji by his side, Yun Xiao was not too worried. At that moment, the Ancient Dragon Control Technique was in operation and he entered a state of cultivation. What he urgently needed to do was to seize the time to recover from his injuries.
…………
Fire Palace, in a majestic hall!
Two old figures stood facing each other. The expression on the face of Mo Xun, the third elder of the Canglong Imperial Palace, was extremely ugly. The failure of tonight's operation not only caused him a huge loss of face, but also possibly cost him his life.
On the other hand, Huo Ying, the second elder of the Fire Palace, was much calmer. The light in his eyes flickered and he didn't know what he was thinking. However, such a nonchalant state clearly irritated Mo Xun.
"Huo Ying, you promised me that you would capture Yun Xiao no matter what. The blood in my body is gone, but I won't be able to hold on for long!"
At this moment, Mo Xun did not dare to offend Huo Ying too much. After all, this was the headquarters of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan. He had many inconveniences and had to rely on the second elder of the Fire Palace in many places.
Therefore, Mo Xun suppressed the rage in his heart and made up his mind that if this old guy dared to lie to him, he would fight to the death. Anyway, his life would not be saved in the end.
"Elder Mo, please be patient. Since Huo promised you, we can definitely do it!"
Huo Ying seemed to be confident. As soon as he said this, Mo Xun couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that it would be good if he could find a way, and he would not have to suffer the extreme pain of devouring flesh and blood.
"Elder Huo, what can you do? The poison in my body can't hold you back!"
After all, Mo Xun was a little anxious. The so-called poisonous nature of his family knowing his own affairs was becoming increasingly uncontrollable. After all, he had to eliminate the hidden danger as soon as possible in order to sleep peacefully.
The third elder of the Imperial Palace was just afraid that Huo Ying would not pay attention to his situation. If it took ten days and a half, would he be able to save his old life?
Only by getting a definite answer from the other party, maybe Mo Xun would truly feel at ease, but he couldn't figure out how to capture Yun Xiao back from Mu Ji in the current situation?
Mo Xun knew Mu Ji's strength very well. He asked himself that in his heyday, he could not gain an absolute upper hand against the opponent in a single fight, let alone now.
Now that Xingzang was exposed, Mo Xun believed that even Huo Ying would never be able to gain Mu Ji's trust again. With the other party's strict defense, he couldn't wait that long.
"If you want to capture Yun Xiao, the biggest obstacle is Mu Ji and Elder Mo. You don't know something. Our great elder has a biggest weakness, and it just so happens that this weakness is in my hands!"
Huo Ying had obviously thought of a plan for a long time, and now he was talking eloquently, which made Mo Xun's eyes light up, and at the same time he was a little angry. He secretly thought that since Mu Ji had a weakness, why didn't he bring it out just now, instead of coming back here to talk about it?
?
"Elder Mo, some things must be used in the right place to be effective. Do you think that in the situation just now, even if I show some trump cards, Mu Ji will give in and compromise?"
Huo Ying was obviously thinking further than the eager Mo Xun, not to mention his so-called Mu Ji's weakness, which he couldn't bring out in front of many elders of the Fire Sacred Rat Clan, otherwise the effect would be greatly compromised.
"Elder Mo, you can rest in my residence. Don't worry, no one dares to disturb you. I'll go out and be back soon!"
After making up some thoughts in his mind, Huo Ying thought that everyone outside the Chiyan Courtyard should have dispersed, so he immediately said softly that for such an arrangement, Mo Xun didn't have many choices at this moment.
Moreover, Mo Xun was afraid that Mu Ji would settle a score with him, and it was only safest to be in Huo Ying's palace. As for what Huo Ying was going to do, the other party didn't say it. He knew that asking would be in vain, or was it?
It's better to wait passively.
At the moment, Mo Xun watched Huo Ying's back disappear at the entrance of the hall, but he himself was still unable to enter the cultivation state. Under his irritability, he felt that the poison in his body had become a bit more ferocious.
…………
It’s the middle of the night!
The moonlight in the sky was like water, shining in the small courtyard, making all movements invisible. There were three figures sitting or lying in the room, and no one spoke.
Tread! Tread! Tread!
A low sound of footsteps came into the room from outside, causing the eyes of the old man and the young man to open wide at this moment. They looked at each other at the same time, and saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes.
In the hearts of Mu Ji and Yun Xiao, they never thought that someone would come to this courtyard tonight, and now it was the middle of the night. They heard the footsteps of people coming towards this courtyard, so they had doubts.
.
Fortunately, the door to the room was broken, and no one deliberately closed the courtyard door. Just a few breaths later, an old figure who was no stranger to the two of them, Shi Shiran, walked into the courtyard.
"Huo Ying!"
The first time he saw that figure, Mu Ji stopped running his skills, then stood up suddenly and looked at the familiar figure, as if he wanted to spit out fire.
Mu Ji now knew about Huo Ying's ambitions. Coupled with the old incident twenty years ago, old and new hatreds came to his mind. He didn't like Huo Ying.
"It seems like this guy really doesn't want to give up!"
On the other hand, Yun Xiao seemed much calmer. If Huo Ying was alone, there would be no threat to him at all. Moreover, he also believed that a person would gain wisdom after suffering. At this moment, Mu Ji would never abandon him.
Leaving the house alone.
"Great Elder, there is no need to be like this. I am not here to trouble you... you!"
Seeing that Mu Ji showed no sign of leaving the room, Huo Ying didn't take it seriously and walked straight into the room. The words he said did not make Mu Ji relax his vigilance at all. This smiling tiger ghost had the most ideas, and he would do it if he was not careful.
Hit.
"Great Elder, your precious grandson should be fine. It seems I want to congratulate you!"
Huo Ying seemed to have forgotten the previous confrontation between the two sides. He walked to the table and sat down. He poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. Then he turned his attention to Chi Yan, as if he came to congratulate Mu Ji.
However, both Mu Ji and Yun Xiao knew that Huo Ying did not mean what he said. Perhaps in his heart, he wished that the two of them would die early.
Therefore, both of them remained silent, wanting to see what kind of medicine the second elder of the Fire Palace was selling in his gourd. Even Yun Xiao was now quite wary of this old guy's mind.
