Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Her Embrace
“Hmph~”
Two cold snorts were heard.
Mr. Nan Chen was dumbfounded.
The laughter ca from the couple, Feng Bailing and Dugu Wu.
“People do not offend , and I do not offend them, but since this Gan Liu has brought trouble to my doorstep, I will not let him go.”
Feng Bailing gritted her teeth as she spoke.
This guy dared to poison their water source, and just thinking about Xiaojin and Chenchen possibly getting poisoned made Feng Bailing’s teeth itch with hatred.
“Exactly.”
Dugu Wu said in a deep voice.
This couple’s thought processes were exactly the sa; no matter if it was Tian Jizi’s attendant or not, offending the two of them ant death.
Seeing that he couldn’t persuade the couple, Mr. Nan Chen watched them leave and couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.
“Alas, young people are too hot-tempered; they do not know of Gan Liu’s thods.”
Tian Jizi was a once-in-a-lifeti talent, and Gan Liu had been nurtured by his side since youth. Aside from dical skills, he also learned many strategies and was very ambitious, making him soone to be wary of.
Ouyang Chenchen yawned, showing her disagreent.
“Teacher, that’s because you do not understand the couple’s thods. Just a Bai Ling alone is already terrifying enough, let alone adding a Dugu Wu. Tsk tsk, that one called Gan Liu is probably going to die a very ugly death.”
The night wind blew, bringing with it a sandstorm.
“That woman is really more trouble than she’s worth.”
A slender figure stood in the desert under the night sky.
Lady Nan Feng was waiting by the side.
“Should we take another opportunity to make a move?”
Lady Nan Feng was eager to deal with Feng Bailing.
“For now, hold off. The most important thing at the mont is to find the Red Scorpion Queen.”
Gan Liu originally intended to use Princess Anyang to lure out the dical Buddha so that the doctor would deal with the Red Scorpion Queen. Then he could benefit from their confrontation, but unfortunately, the plan failed.
However, he believed that as long as he could capture Feng Bailing, the disciple of dical Buddha, sooner or later dical Buddha himself would have to appear. It was just a pity that he had to deal with the Red Scorpion Queen himself.
“Is there any reaction from the compass?”
After entering the Red Scorpion Desert, he was also searching for the Red Scorpion Queen, but it seed to have vanished without a trace.
“There’s no movent for now, but rest assured, if we can’t find her, neither can anyone else.”
Lady Nan Feng firmly believed that she could find the Red Scorpion Queen before anyone else.
Upon returning to the camp, everyone took a rest. Before dawn, Feng Bailing sneakily got up.
She hadn’t walked far when a shadow followed her like a ghost.
“Such an early hour, and where are you sneaking off to by yourself?”
The figure of Dugu Wu erged like a ghost, and his voice ca from behind, causing Feng Bailing to shudder.
“I couldn’t sleep and was planning to take a stroll.”
Feng Bailing coughed lightly.
Seeing her dark, rolling eyes, Dugu Wu knew the woman was up to so trickery again.
“Spill the beans, or else…”
With that said, Dugu Wu had sothing in his hand.
Feng Bailing’s eyes nearly popped out when she saw it.
“When did you steal my ergency kit?”
Feng Bailing felt her sleeve, where the ergency kit she had hidden was, at so unknown ti, transferred to Dugu Wu’s hands.
Having spent much ti together, Dugu Wu knew how important this kit was to Feng Bailing.
Several tis, he had seen Feng Bailing surreptitiously open the kit and take out all kinds of strange and curious items, including so soil that tasted pretty good.
Yet every ti he opened it, there was nothing inside.
Last night, after the incident, he had been closely watching for any activity from Feng Bailing.
Sure enough, before dawn, the woman started sneaking outside.
“I give up on you, fine, co with then.”
Feng Bailing had no choice but to co clean.
“I’m going to deal with the Red Scorpion Queen.”
“Do you know its whereabouts?”
Dugu Wu asked, not without surprise.
For the past few days, everyone had been searching, but to no avail.
“Pretty much.”
Feng Bailing responded vaguely.
“With those skinny arms and legs of yours, do you think you can go to your death alone?”
Dugu Wu’s face grew cold; this woman was actually thinking of risking danger on her own again?
Thinking of this, Dugu Wu glared fiercely at Feng Bailing.
“You underestimate ? There’s more than one way to deal with the Red Scorpion Queen. I may not excel in martial arts, but I have poison.”
Feng Bailing pouted her lips; she wasn’t foolish enough to knock an egg against a rock.
She took out the vial of poison she got from switching containers.
“This poison is colorless and tasteless; even I almost got deceived by it. If it were placed in the Red Scorpion Queen’s water source, and she drinks it, it would either kill her or leave her half-dead.”
In this matter, she had to thank Gan Liu and Princess Anyang, as they inspired Feng Bailing.
Feng Bailing also knew that the Red Scorpion Queen’s strength had greatly increased after devouring her own kind, making it very troubleso to deal with.
But with this poison, it was different.
“How do you know where it drinks?”
Dugu Wu frowned slightly.
Feng Bailing’s plan, although not honorable, was very effective.
Yet, there are several water sources in the Red Scorpion Desert. Apart from the ones they occupied and those whose paths were altered by the Red Scorpion Queen, no one else could know where the Queen drinks.
Of course, Feng Bailing knew because of the Water Holy Seal.
These past days, while seemingly inactive, she had been using the Water Holy Seal to locate the drinking spot of the Red Scorpion Queen. With the help of Xiao Hong, last night, she finally found the precise location where the Red Scorpion Queen drinks.
Feng Bailing didn’t bother explaining to Dugu Wu; if he knew the Water Holy Seal was with her, who knows how he’d deal with her.
The two walked so distance, and it was early morning, with the dawn beginning to break in the east.
Dugu Wu took a few steps and suddenly stopped.
“The dicine Princess Anyang took earlier, I’ve seen it before.”
His voice was very low, but Feng Bailing heard it.
Feng Bailing halted in her tracks.
“When I was young, my mother had given the sa kind of dicine.”
Dugu Wu’s voice was ice-cold.
He had never ntioned it to anyone else, but now, in front of Feng Bailing, he brought it up voluntarily.
“I’d almost forgotten about it. Not until I saw Princess Anyang poisoned today. To think that my own mother actually wanted to poison to death.”
Dugu Wu laughed sardonically at himself.
“Perhaps there is so misunderstanding.”
Feng Bailing looked at Dugu Wu with so concern.
At this mont, Dugu Wu evoked a sense of heartache in her.
This man, his mother tried to “poison” him, his father “suspected” him everywhere, the bitterness in his heart had never been shared with anyone.
Feng Bailing wanted to comfort him but realized that all words seed powerless at that mont.
In the dawn light, his silhouette appeared tall and lonely.
Feng Bailing hesitated, then stepped forward and wrapped her arms around him.
