"Pop..." I finally couldn't hold back and gave Gu Yuan a noisy kiss on the face.
Gu Yuan was slightly stunned. He didn't expect me to sneak attack him. Before he could react, I kissed the other side of his face.
Looking at his handsome face, I forced a smile, but my heart was bleeding. He had already lost all his relatives. I really couldn't imagine what he would be like after I left tomorrow. Would he miss me very much? Would he search for me all over the world?
Just thinking about it made my smile stiff. Hot tears welled up in my eyes and were about to fall.
I thought I could hold back my tears, but when Gu Yuan forcefully pulled me into his arms, my tears splashed out.
I pressed my face against his chest, trying hard to hold back my sobs as I asked,
"Gu Yuan, what do you want to eat tomorrow? I'll cook it for you."
"I want to eat you."
"Ah... Um..."
At this moment, Gu Yuan held the back of my head with one hand and supported my face with the other, then kissed me domineeringly.
At that moment, I felt as if he really wanted to devour me. My nose was pressed against his face, making it difficult for me to breathe.
It wasn't until I slapped his chest that he let me go. Just as I took a couple of gasps, his kiss came down on me again.
Then he picked me up horizontally and rushed towards our wooden couch.
His kiss was much more awkward compared to the Gu Yuan I knew, but for some reason, such a kiss made me even more infatuated.
Just thinking about what was about to happen made my heart pound. Just when the two of us were about to reach the climax, I suddenly thought it wasn't right.
This was Chi Yu's body. How could I act recklessly without asking for her consent?
Just as I was still thinking about how to push Gu Yuan away, he also stopped his actions.
He leaned over and said to me, "Sorry, I offended you."
I bit my lower lip. I didn't know why he said that, and my heart was filled with mixed feelings.
I moved closer to him, wrapped my arms around his arm, and whispered, "It's okay. Let's go to sleep, okay?"
Gu Yuan didn't say anything else. I hugged his arm and hardly slept all night.
It wasn't until the sky began to turn gray that I quietly got up to prepare breakfast.
While he was sleeping soundly, I took out a pen and paper and started drawing his portrait.
I wasn't good at drawing. After drawing two pictures, I thought they were so ugly that I couldn't help laughing out loud.
It wasn't until I drew the most satisfactory one that I signed my name - Lan Chi Yu Zhu - at the bottom.
After signing, I still thought it was too ugly. Forget it, forget it. I won't draw anymore. The Gu Yuan in my heart couldn't be like this.
I crumpled up the pieces of paper and threw them into the stove, then carried the food to the dining table.
At this moment, the sky outside was very gloomy, but it was already basically dawn. I looked at Gu Yuan reluctantly. If I didn't leave now and waited for him to wake up, I would be even more reluctant to go.
Finally, I gritted my teeth and didn't even look at him. I turned around and walked out of the cave.
Outside the cave, dark clouds were gathering, and it was drizzling. The light rain was slanting down rapidly. Although it was just a light rain, the raindrops were very dense.
Since I didn't prepare any rain gear, I walked out in the rain. In a short while, my clothes were almost completely soaked.
But I didn't dare to stop. Because Long Lin had told me before that if I found out the whereabouts of the Snake Scale, I should go west all the way until I found a land temple. Then I should stamp my foot on the ground three times, and someone would take me to the Heavenly Court.
I didn't dare to stop at all. I rushed on my way in the rain, completely ignoring everything around me.
It wasn't until I walked to a puddle that I saw through the puddle that the red - dressed woman was right behind me. Her face was resting on my shoulder.
Her blood - red eyes bulged out, and she stared expressionlessly at my face.
I was so scared that I let out a loud scream. Suddenly, my body seemed to be pushed hard by someone.
I fell face - first into the mud pit.
When I looked back again, the red - dressed woman's feet were completely under Chi Yu's feet.
Chi Yu's hands, controlled by the red - dressed woman, howled and rushed towards me.
I was sitting in the puddle at the moment and didn't have time to dodge.
From afar, I saw the woman's ashy hands just about to hook onto my body.
A colorful glare burst out in front of me. When the red - dressed woman saw the glare, she let out a wail and immediately retracted her claws, covering her face with both hands to block the strong light.
Seeing that things were going badly, the red - dressed woman turned around and fled into the forest.
Chi Yu's body was abandoned and slumped to the ground.
At this moment, I realized that I had already left Chi Yu's body as a soul.
I intended to go forward and help Chi Yu up. As soon as I got close to her and was about to pull her with my hands, my arms passed right through her body, and I missed.
I had forgotten that a soul couldn't touch a physical body.
Just as I was anxiously pacing back and forth, the Nuwa Stone on Chi Yu's waist emitted another colorful glare.
The Nuwa Stone floated in mid - air from her pocket. Instinctively, I reached out to touch it and found that I could touch it. I held the Nuwa Stone in my palm, and it was so bright that it was blinding.
I put the Nuwa Stone back on Chi Yu's body and then took a few steps back to look. The halo was obviously much dimmer. When I took another step back, there was no light on Chi Yu's body at all.
At this moment, I understood that Chi Yu was the physical body of the Snake Scale, while I was the incarnation and the soul of the Snake Scale.
Before, I didn't understand how a small sachet could carry so many things. Later, Xi Nu told me to lie and say that it was just a sachet no matter who asked. Only in this way could we avoid the coveting of many demons and ghosts.
The Snake Scale was originally a sacred object. How could it be easily revealed? It was not only a spiritual weapon that could carry all things but also an auxiliary with powerful healing abilities.
Xi Nu had the Snake Scale back then, so it was rumored in the world that whoever got Xi Nu could get the world. In fact, it should be more accurate to say that whoever got the Nuwa Snake Scale could get the world.
The Heavenly Emperor wanted the Snake Scale, and his purpose was very clear. If he wanted to unify the Three Realms, he must have the help of the Snake Scale.
It was just that he didn't know that the Snake Scale had already transferred all its magical power to Gu Yuan. Now it was even worse than an ordinary spiritual weapon.
Thinking about it really made me feel sad. However, it was okay. It was worth using a useless thing to exchange for the lives of Gu Yuan and his mother.
At this moment, the light rain in the sky had turned into a heavy rain. The small puddle just now had now turned into a small ditch.
When the Nuwa Stone touched my soul, I could actually touch the surrounding things.
At this time, I didn't dare to delay at all. I quickly turned Chi Yu over, afraid that she would suffocate in the water if she stayed there for too long.
"Chi Yu, Chi Yu, wake up. Don't sleep anymore. Wake up quickly..." I was extremely anxious. I gently patted her face with my hand, but she didn't show the slightest sign of reaction.
Her little face was cold, just like a dead person.
A sense of foreboding welled up in my heart. Could it be that I had killed her because of my appearance?
