Chapter 422: 422 Damn Jiang Xiaobai
Chapter 422: Damn Jiang Xiaobai
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai in this state, Ao Cheng and the others rushed forward immediately. Ao Cheng looked more worried than anyone else.
They all knew that Jiang Xiaobai had just turned the tide and saved everyone with his last-ditch effort.
If it hadn’t been for Jiang Xiaobai, everyone would have been captured alive by the Gu clan, resulting in a more troublesome situation.
Once they reached Jiang Xiaobai, Ao Cheng hugged him and yelled, “Fuck, what’s wrong with you? Are you okay?”
“Get away. He’s seriously low on spiritual power. He needs an energy transfer right now!”
Zhuang Huanling shoved Ao Cheng aside and stuffed a magic pill into Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth. She then took Jiang Xiaobai’s hand, preparing to transfer her spiritual energy into him.
But soon, Zhuang Huanling’s eyes widened in shock.
“Damn! Has he gone mad? He actually burned up his essence and blood at the most crucial juncture!”
Zhuang Huanling gritted her teeth and said, “Now he’s suffering from a terrible aftereffect due to burning his essence and blood. It’s impossible to transfer spiritual power into him through regular means.”
“What should we do then?” Ao Cheng frantically asked. “Whatever it is, as long as it’s possible, I won’t hesitate.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhuang Huanling looking at him with a teasing look.
“Oh? Are you sure?”
“What’s wrong?”
“Well, to deal with the current situation we have to first transfer spiritual power into him and clear the blockages in his meridians caused by burning his essence and blood. Otherwise, we can’t help him.”
Zhuang Huanling continued in a teasing manner, “In other words, this way of transferring spiritual power isn’t going to work anymore. For grandmasters at the Transcendence stage, they could forcibly break through the blockages in the meridians with their spiritual power. But for us, we need to manipulate our power very carefully.”
Ao Cheng was stunned, a buzz echoing in his head.
“What are you talking about? I can’t understand what you’re saying. Are you saying he’s going to die?”
At that point, Mo Yu suddenly coughed and said, “What she means is, we need to channel our spiritual power directly into Jiang Xiaobai’s body.”
“So what?”
“So we have to do it mouth to mouth!”
Zhuang Huanling irritably snapped, “You donkey, how else can we do it? Through his nostrils? His ears? His meridians are in a defensive state right now. It’s impossible to channel energy into him through any other means. We must resort to this method!”
“Only in this way can we gradually clear the blockages in him. Otherwise, with his spiritual energy continuously depleting, he’ll be consumed by his own energy and he’ll be useless when he wakes up.”
Burning one’s essence and blood has many side effects, but generally speaking, they’re not horrifying.
However, Jiang Xiaobai just burned his essence and blood and activated the Seven Treasures Pagoda, which already consumed an enormous amount of spiritual power. Though he could barely use it after reaching the Transcendence stage.
What’s worse, the first level of seal on the Seven Treasures Pagoda has been touched, which hence noted a drastic change in circumstances.
I can’t believe Jiang Xiaobai almost got drained alive by the Seven Treasures Pagoda in order to scare away Gu Heng!
Otherwise, it would’ve been the end for us all.
Now, the group ran into a pressing issue. The only solution is mouth to mouth. So, who’s doing it?
Both women looked at Ao Cheng, whose face turned pale, and he backed away flapping his hands in denial.
“No way! Absolutely not!”
“Even though he’s my brother, I’m a man of principles. This method simply can’t do.”
If they were to do this, when Jiang Xiaobai wakes up, they would definitely feel awkward for the rest of their lives!
Then Ao Cheng suddenly realized something and turned his piercing gaze to the two women, “Neither of you can do it either! Jiang Xiaobai belongs to my sister. Unless I’m mistaken, they haven’t tried anything yet.”
“It’s his first time; you can’t take it from him!”
Zhuang Huanling immediately blushed and angrily slapped Ao Cheng on the head. “Shut up, you idiot!”
“Or maybe… I should do it?”
Mo Yu suddenly mumbled with a red face, “Although it’s not proper for a man and a woman to give or receive things from each other, Jiang Xiaobai saved my life and I owe him. I’m willing to serve him as a gratitude, as a servant if you will.”
“It’s probably fine for a servant to do something like this.”
But as soon as she finished speaking, Zhuang Huanling immediately shook her head, “That’s not going to work. Your own spiritual power is seriously depleted. If you dared try, you’d probably be finished alongside Jiang Xiaobai.”
“So you’re going to do it?” Ao Cheng covered his head in confusion, “You? Are you willing?”
“What if I’m not? If we don’t act soon, reinforcements will arrive. If we waste any more time, we’re all done for.”
After speaking her mind, Zhuang Huanling muttered another curse at Jiang Xiaobai. Although she raised her hand to slap his face for some sense of balance, she eventually lowered it.
On the side, Ao Cheng turned his body around too, constantly muttering under his breath, “Sister, this can’t be avoided. It’s not formal if you see it that way. If you knew this was for the sake of saving Jiang Xiaobai’s life, you wouldn’t mind, right?”
Zhuang Huanling rolled her eyes and, with a flushed face, she leaned over to look at Jiang Xiaobai.
“You’re getting lucky this time, you bastard. I’ve never…”
“Forget it, we don’t have much time!”
Mentally preparing herself, Zhuang Huanling gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and leaned down abruptly.
The first thing that came to mind was: soft and weirdly, sweet?
But soon enough, Zhuang Huanling started transferring her remaining spiritual power into Jiang Xiaobai’s meridians.
As time passed, less than a minute had gone by before Jiang Xiaobai’s condition got better. Immediately after, Zhuang Huanling got up and stuffed a huge pile of magic pills into Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth.
From beginning to end, Mo Yu and Ao Cheng had their backs turned, not daring to make a sound. Even after all this was over, they still didn’t dare say anything.
Zhuang Huanling had an even more flushed face. She grabbed the collar of Jiang Xiaobai’s clothes.
“What are you waiting for, let’s get going! Why are you standing there, waiting to die?”
After saying this, she ran off with a head full of steam. Mo Yu and Ao Cheng also hurriedly followed. However, regarding the incident that happened just now, not a single word was mentioned.
Anyone could sense Zhuang Huanling’s current volatile mood. Would they dare revisit the matter and seek their death?
They had barely gotten far when a large group of powerful Gu clansmen— at least a hundred — arrived.
Gu Heng was among them. He still led the group, but his face was pale with rage.
“Damn it, how could he escape!”
Gu Heng stomped his foot, gritting his teeth in anger. But despite his anger, he knew that as long as they kept chasing, they could definitely catch Jiang Xiaobai and the others.
They didn’t have much time to restore their spiritual power, if they were cornered once more, they could all be caught.
“Keep chasing, let those up front block them off at the right locations. With one more round, even if Jiang Xiaobai is a god incarnate, he won’t be able to escape!”
Huffing, Gu Heng took the lead and continued the chase.
