Chapter 2218: Anger
His whole body was hot, as if his blood was boiling, and he was unable to summon any strength at all. He had drunk quite a lot of wine and was obviously drunk, but at this point in time, he was gradually becoming sober because he was conscious of the heat in his body.
He tried to open his eyes and squinted. In the dimness, he saw two girls lifting him up together and they seemed to have placed him on a stone bed. When his hot body touched the cool surface of the stone, he felt very comfortable.
However, in the next moment, his limbs were tied up, he lay there and was unable to move. He was startled, and opened his mouth to speak: “You, what do you want to do?” He had wanted to shout, but his voice was weak when he spoke.
At the other side, Feng Jiu who had been unconscious opened her eyes as soon as the two girls left. She turned over and jumped out of bed, then walked out of her room. After she had left her room, she pa.s.sed another room in the same courtyard, and her eyes moved slightly as she looked at the locked door.
She walked forward in light footsteps and took out something, then she used it and fiddled with the lock. Not long after, the lock opened with a click. She pushed the door open and walked in, then closed the door gently.
Upon entering the room, she smelt the faint scent of wine and medicinal ingredients, and was slightly surprised. Could they have hidden medicinal wine in here? With a flick of her hand, she took out her luminous pearl and illuminated the room. When she saw what was in front of her, nausea gushed up from her stomach and she nearly vomited.
There were transparent jars dedicated to soaking medicinal wines. The wine in the jars were quite good. However, there were some animal entrails that were immersed in the wine, it was disgusting.
She briefly glanced at everything and saw eyeb.a.l.l.s from some beast in one of the jars, intestines in others, there were even claws and tendons. What she saw at the back made her heart jump.
Those in the back were actually humans…
Her expression changed. She put away the luminous pearl, then turned around and left quickly. She headed towards the courtyard next door. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard the voice of the woman as she spoke to her so-called daughters.
“Be careful later on, he is a Celestial Strong Exponent after all. His neidan[1] will be a good thing.”
“Master, the medicinal wine is ready, we can start anytime.”
“Master, what should we do with the girl in red? She is still asleep over there.” Another person asked.
“That girl has such a splendid appearance, obviously we will have to nurture her carefully. When we are finished with things over here, I will use the Soul Removing technique on her to make her forget her past. She will be your sister in the future.”
As she listened to their conversation, Feng Jiu’s heart surged with hostility. She stepped forward and kicked the door open. The door shattered with a loud bang.
“Who is it?”
The people in the room shouted in shock. When they looked back, they couldn’t help but be startled and exclaimed in surprise: “It’s you!”
Wasn’t she unconscious from drinking the Immortal Wine? How was she here?
When the beautiful woman saw that it was Feng Jiu, her beautiful eyes flickered and she looked at her in surprise: “You’re not drunk?” Someone had actually drank the Immortal Wine and not become intoxicated? She couldn’t help but size up the beautiful girl in the red dress.
At this point, she noticed that the cold light in her eyes and her body was filled with bitter killing intent. The profound energy surged from her body and she couldn’t help but ask in a soft voice: “Are you a Mystical cultivator?”
She had concealed it very well, to the point that she hadn’t even noticed the breath on her before.
