The black-robed man pushed his strength to the extreme! The tendons and veins in his body couldn"t withstand such terrifying power and began to burst inch by inch, and he started to bleed from all seven orifices!
He poured all his internal energy into the long blade in his right hand and fiercely slashed towards Gu Jiao!
With a stabbed sound, a red-ta.s.seled spear mercilessly pierced through his chest!
The black-robed man looked at the youth in disbelief, not understanding how ‘he’ did it.
The youth coldly walked towards him and gripped the red-ta.s.seled spear with one hand, suddenly pushing it through his body!
The black-robed man fell stiffly to the ground. Even in death, he did not understand how he could die at the hands of such a young guy.
He gazed at the dim and boundless sky.
The G.o.d of Slaughter.
He saw the G.o.d of Slaughter.
Everything was over. On the official road outside the Fenghuang Pavilion, all was silent, with a thick smell of blood in the air.
Gu Jiao held the red-ta.s.seled spear, her pupils as black as ink as she stared ahead on the official road, her gaze unfocused.
Her killing intent didn"t diminish even as the black-robed man fell.
She still wanted to kill.
If she couldn"t kill others, then she would kill herself.
"Chirp!"
Little Nine flapped its wings and flew over, circling around Gu Jiao"s head.
"Chirp chirp!"
Little Nine cried loudly at Gu Jiao.
"Coo! Cluck!"
"Cluck cluck coo!"
Gu Jiao aimed the red-ta.s.seled spear at Little Nine.
Little Nine fluttered its wings and ruffled its feathers. “Chirp!”
Little Nine was very scared, but it didn’t flee.
Bravely, it flew to the top of Gu Jiao"s head and pecked at her hair with its beak.
"Chirp!"
"Chirp!"
"Chirp!"
A struggle flickered within Gu Jiao"s eyes and she threw the red-ta.s.seled spear to the ground, then she pulled out a thin rope tied around her waist and tightly bound her own hands!
She mounted her horse, restraining the overwhelming killing intent within her with sheer determination.
Little Nine flew to the back of the horse and pecked its b.u.t.tocks with its beak!
The horse winced in pain and galloped away swiftly.
b.l.o.o.d.y tears flowed from the corners of Gu Jiao"s eyes, and she could no longer see the road clearly.
Little Nine led the way ahead, holding the reins of the horse in its beak.
One person, one bird, one horse, galloping madly in the darkness.
Little Nine, faster, I"m losing control.
Little Nine seemed to sense Gu Jiao"s surging killing intent. It chirped rapidly and led the horse faster towards the city gate.
The city guards had already received orders and were waiting for her to retrieve the antidote.
On the city wall, a guard suddenly pointed towards the direction of Cangbei Mountain and shouted, "Sir! Look! Someone is coming!"
"How many people?"
"It seems to be the young man who left the city earlier!"
"Quick! Open the city gate!"
The city gate opened wide, and the guards at the gate rushed forward to meet the person.
Gu Jiao"s mask had already fallen off at some point. Her body was covered in blood, the same went for her face, and her hands were still bound. If it weren"t for having seen her leave the city before, almost no one would have dared to recognize her.
What was more, everyone felt the killing intent in her eyes.
She wanted to kill!
"Back off!" The chief guard shouted sharply.
Everyone drew their swords and stepped back.
Gu Jiao untied the bundle on her back and threw it to the chief guard with her bound hands.
"The antidote."
Her blood-red eyes looked at the chief guard, and with the last bit of remaining sanity, she said, "Close the city gates... Don"t open them!"
The chief guard felt a thump in his chest!
"Sir..." His subordinates looked at him in confusion.
The chief guard looked steadily at Gu Jiao, who was emanating killing intent, and raised his hand with a complicated expression. "Everyone, enter the city, close the gates!"
"Sir!"
"Do as I say!"
Gritting their teeth, the people entered the city and pulled the winches, closing the city gates firmly.
Little Nine flapped its wings and chirped frantically at Gu Jiao: "Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!"
Gu Jiao grabbed it and threw it into the gap of the city gate.
"My Lord!"
Just as the city gate was about to close completely, a tall, slender figure in white rushed out through the gap.
People tried to grab him but missed. Then, with a rumble, the city gate, which required twenty people to close simultaneously, shut tightly!
A roar came from the city tower, "Are you all crazy? Why didn"t you stop him? That"s Lord Xiao from the Hanlin Academy!"
The rope on Gu Jiao"s wrist was specially made for herself to deal with her own uncontrollable emergencies. There were small needles on the rope. If she struggled until the needles broke, the neurotoxin inside would penetrate her body.
The more she struggled, the more neurotoxin would enter her body.
The total amount would be enough to kill her.
She lay on the horse"s back, letting the neurotoxin numb her body.
She knew she couldn"t use more, but her killing intent didn"t diminish.
"JiaoJiao."
Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded in her ear.
A pair of strong arms reached out, unhesitatingly pulling her down from the horse"s back.
The rope in her hands was untied.
She was embraced in a st.u.r.dy, warm hug.
"Surname Gu! Your daughter is a monster! Take her away!"
"Mom."
"Mom, I"ll be obedient. Don"t send me away. I won"t eat, I won"t pee my pants, I won"t cry."
"I don"t care if you cry or not! Go away! I don"t want you anymore!"
"Mom."
"Go away!"
"Mom, Mom, Mom..."
The three-year-old little Gu Jiao hugged a decapitated doll, her hands covered in blood, standing barefoot in the dark corridor. Blowing in the cold wind, she knocked on the closed door, "Mom, Mom..."
"I"m not a monster." In a daze, Gu Jiao said in an aggrieved voice.
Xiao Heng sat on the ground, tightly hugging her blood-stained body. There was a wound on his neck from her bite, and blood stained his clothes red.
His ice-cold cheek pressed against her burning forehead, and he said with heartfelt concern, "JiaoJiao is not a monster, JiaoJiao is the best in the world, JiaoJiao is Ah Heng"s wife, Ah Heng is not afraid of JiaoJiao."
Gu Jiao, in a daze, pinched his sleeve with two slender fingers and said hazily, "Yeah, I"m just that good."Raz P."s Thoughts
