"Uncle Situ, is there a turmoil within the Chu family?"
Before Situ Lie could speak again, Liu Xiaoxiao took the lead and asked, as if he had expected something in his heart.
"It seems I can't hide it from you, girl..."
"That's right, now that Chu Tianyang has died, and King Chu Wen of Jin is about to ascend the throne, the original royal family and the Chu family will also experience a reshuffle. I don't know what blessing this will be for the people of the Chu Dynasty. It's still a disaster..." Situ Lie nodded slightly and then sighed.
Although this internal fight in the royal family has nothing to do with the Alchemist Guild, but the skin is gone and the hair is not there. If the Imperial City continues to be turbulent, the people in the Alchemist Guild will inevitably be affected to some extent. After all, the Imperial City is currently There is no security at all inside and outside, and there are wars and killings everywhere.
"I hope the world can be peaceful. Although King Chu Wen of Jin has seized power, he is still a member of the Chu family. The turmoil in the imperial city should not last long. Uncle Situ, you don't have to worry too much... "
After pursing her lips, Liu Xiaoxiao also stepped forward gracefully, and then whispered softly, her tone full of relief.
"The imperial city is in such chaos. I wonder how Fei Ren is doing now. He might have been killed by the rebels..."
At this moment, another gray figure suddenly appeared in Liu Xiaoxiao's mind. The feeling was both strange and familiar to her.
"Damn it! Why did this girl think of him? This guy is stinky and annoying. What does his life or death have to do with me..."
Shaking his head again, Liu Xiaoxiao also retracted his thoughts at the moment, with a complicated expression on his beautiful face. Although he didn't get along with Fei Ren for a long time, his performance in the Dan Pagoda still amazed the audience, which was enough to be called A genius.
.....
Outside the imperial city, on a cliff
"Brother, this place is at least three hundred miles away from the imperial city. We should get rid of those guys' pursuit..."
Stopping, Chu Qian stretched out her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and looked at Chu Jiuxing in front of her with beautiful eyes.
"Well, we should be out of danger for the time being..."
"Sister, are you okay?"
Chu Jiuxing nodded, his breath fluctuating, and then he muttered, his face slightly pale.
After this fierce melee, Chu Jiuxing felt a little exhausted both mentally and physically at this time, even if he had the Yuanli cultivation of the seventh level of the high star realm. If it weren't for protecting his sister from harm, he wouldn't be able to survive now.
"Brother, I'm fine. You should take a rest first..."
Looking at the panting Chu Jiuxing in front of her, Chu Qian also frowned slightly, and then said with some distress.
"Uh-huh!"
At this time, Fei Ren's body was seen rushing out of the dense forest behind, and then came to the cliff here.
Before evacuating the imperial city, in order not to leave any traces for the pursuers, he also took the initiative to cut off the rear. Not only did he kill many rebel soldiers who came to support him, he also killed a group of Shadow Guard killers.
And without the burden of the Chu brothers and sisters, Fei Ren can summon the Immortal Refining Cauldron unscrupulously, refine and absorb the residual energy essence of these warrior corpses, and at the same time continue to strengthen his Yuanli cultivation and body.
At this point, the total amount of Yuanli in Fei Ren's body has expanded by nearly half, and he is not far from breaking through to the fifth level of the high star realm, which is a small gain.
"Brother Fei Ren, Chu has no way to repay this life-saving grace. Please accept my respect!"
Seeing Fei Ren's safe return, Chu Jiuxing immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed deeply to Fei Ren in front of him with a sincere tone.
This time, their brothers and sisters were able to leave the imperial city safely. In addition to the cover of Su Tianxing and others, Fei Ren in front of them also played an important role. If Fei Ren hadn't killed Liu Ming, Chu Jiuxing and Chu Qian would have used all their strength to , and may not be able to break out of the siege.
"Your Majesty, you're welcome."
Fei Ren was also a little surprised to see Chu Jiuxing kneel down to him suddenly, and immediately leaned forward to help him up with a helpless expression on his face.
In fact, he had no intention of getting involved in this royal dispute, but as the saying goes, save people to the end and send Buddha to the west. Now that he has promised to return Chu Tianyang's favor, he will naturally not give up halfway.
"Well...."
Standing up slowly, Chu Jiuxing staggered, then coughed secretly, and his face became paler.
"Prince, it seems that you still have something to hide from me..."
Seeing this scene, Fei Ren also narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had guessed something in his mind.
"Brother Fei Ren, why did you say that..." Facing Fei Ren's gaze, Chu Jiuxing also laughed out loud, but his expression was vaguely unnatural.
"Is it worth it for you?"
Without speaking directly at the first moment, Fei Ren asked in reply, while his eyes were fixed on Chu Jiuxing in front of him, and his tone was like Shen Lei.
"Maybe it's worth it."
It seemed that Fei Ren's inner thoughts were penetrated by one glance. Chu Jiuxing also pursed his lips and smiled miserably, without saying much.
"Fei Ren, what are you talking about...Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing the incomprehensible words of Fei Ren and Chu Jiuxing in front of her, Chu Qian on the side was also confused, and immediately spoke out, with a hint of anxiety on her pretty face.
"He was poisoned by dove poison in his body, and the toxin has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. The toxicity of dove poison is very strong. Without an antidote, even a high-star warrior would not survive for half a day, and it would be difficult for gods to save him..." He glanced at his body. Next to Chu Qian, Fei Ren frowned slightly, and then spoke slowly the next moment. "If I'm not mistaken, your body was already poisoned by dove poison long before you rushed to the princess's mansion to save people. It's a miracle that you can survive until now..."
"Ahem, Brother Fei Ren's eyesight is still so sharp. Chu really didn't see the wrong person..."
A smear of black blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, and the next moment Chu Jiuxing also coughed and said, his face became weaker and paler, as if the toxins in his body had penetrated deep into the bone marrow as Fei Ren said, and he had been holding on secretly before.
"Brother, are you poisoned?!"
"You are so stupid, why didn't you tell me earlier...!"
Hearing this, Chu Qian, no matter how stupid she was, understood something at this time. She immediately stepped forward and took Chu Jiuxing into her arms, crying softly.
She originally thought she had escaped from danger, but she did not expect that Chu Jiuxing's body had long been poisoned by dove poison, and the poison had penetrated into the bone marrow, to the point where it was difficult for gods to save him.
"Sister, as long as you can survive, it doesn't matter if I die..."
"You are the person that my father loves the most. Promise me that you must live well and revive the Chu royal family in the future..." He reached out and gently touched Chu Qian's three thousand black hair. Chu Jiuxing, who was on the verge of reaching his limit, also Grinning, he spoke with difficulty.
"Brother! I don't want it! I don't want you to die! I don't want to be alone..."
Seeing that Chu Jiuxing's breath was getting weaker and weaker, and his hands and feet had become a little dark and cold, Chu Qian was sobbing again and again, with tears in her eyes.
"Fei Ren, since you can tell that my brother has been poisoned, you must have a way to save him, right?"
Looking back at Fei Ren behind her, Chu Qian's voice was full of pleading. She was no longer as arrogant and willful as the princess she used to be. Her pretty face turned red for a moment, and at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed and pitiful.
"The poison in the prince's body has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Unless there is a powerful person above the martial spirit realm to take action, nothing can be done..."
Facing Chu Qian's pleading, Fei Ren rarely shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't want to save, but with his current strength and means, he simply couldn't save Chu Jiuxing, who was poisoned to the bone in front of him, even with the help of the Immortal Refining God. The cauldron is also useless.
