Xu Fei had seen this kind of scene before. When Bai Feng was poisoned back then, his blood had boiled uncontrollably, beyond even his own ability to suppress!
So Xu Fei immediately prepared to act. At that moment, Deacon Zhikong snorted coldly from the side.
“Planning to make a move, huh? Hmph! Let me tell you straight—right now, this girl is my second blood bank, practically my second life. If you kill me, she won’t survive either!”
Others might think Zhikong was just bluffing, but Xu Fei didn’t see it that way.
Without a word, he pulled out a silver needle and stabbed it into Yao Yunxi’s body.
Xu Fei wasn’t actually attacking her; he was using the needle to check her internal condition.
He hadn’t expected what he found next—it startled him!
Earlier, when he’d subdued Zhikong and checked Yao Yunxi’s condition, he’d found nothing unusual.
But now, Xu Fei was shocked to discover her body was filled with a chaotic mix of raging true qi and blood.
This substance was completely uncontrollable, like a burning piece of firewood destined to burn itself out!
Zhikong, who’d just been weakened by Xu Fei’s restraint, calmly walked over and placed his hand on Yao Yunxi’s arm.
Her face turned deathly pale in an instant, and Zhikong’s demeanor visibly improved!
“To treat an ordinary person like this as your cultivation cauldron—what crime should you bear for this!”
Xu Fei finally understood. Back when he trained with his master, Mo Wentian had mentioned a group of notorious, vile cultivators.
The most infamous among them practiced so-called dual cultivation, an utterly unfair method.
Typically, it involved a man and a woman, with the man’s cultivation far exceeding the woman’s.
These male cultivators would use sweet words to deceive their partners, claiming dual cultivation would mutually enhance their realms. In truth, it was a lie!
It was just a way for the male cultivator to avoid risks, transferring them onto the woman while satisfying his selfish desires!
Recalling Zhikong’s lecherous gaze toward Yao Yunxi earlier, Xu Fei instantly grasped the man’s intentions, fueling his rage!
“Tch! Stop pretending to be some saint! Anyone who doesn’t use such a convenient and fast cultivation method is the real fool!”
“Though the Red Buddha Society still has a bounty on you, if you back off now and we team up, with my connections in the capital, finding you another beauty like Yao Yunxi for dual cultivation would be a piece of cake!”
Though Zhikong had regained his strength, the memory of nearly being taken out by Xu Fei’s single needle lingered vividly.
Zhikong might be greedy, but he wasn’t blindly arrogant.
The Red Buddha Society was massive, with seventy-two elders known as the Earthly Fiends, and countless deacons under them.
Zhikong was just one of many deacons. He understood what it meant that Xu Fei’s head carried a thirty-million bounty within the society.
So, unwilling to take the risk, Zhikong chose this moment to propose a truce, hoping to reconcile with Xu Fei.
