Chapter 296 Cheating
Chapter 296 Cheating
"What? You want to purify her blood?" The Demon Lord looked at the Taoist priest suspiciously: "How to purify it?"
"After using medicine to remove impurities in the blood, just make a small cut on the wrist to let the blood out. You don't need blood from your heart to make medicine." The Taoist priest explained.
The demon lord narrowed his eyes: "What medicine are you going to give her?"
The Taoist priest took out a bottle of exquisite pills: "This is the marrow cleansing pill I specially refined. As long as you take five pills in a row, you can purify the blood poison and your body will be reborn. Take one pill a day, and you can draw blood after five days."
The Demon Lord took the pill, held it in his hand and observed it carefully for a long time, then asked: "Is this pill harmful to her body?"
The Taoist priest shook his head: "Of course the marrow cleansing pill is harmless, and it can even strengthen the body."
Seeing that the Demon Lord was still hesitating, the Taoist priest advised: "My Lord, your heart disease really can't be delayed any longer. The sooner it is cured, the less suffering you will suffer. Besides, this marrow cleansing pill is only beneficial to the body and not harmful. If you don't believe me, you can find a few more doctors to take a look."
The Demon Lord dismissed the Taoist priest and sent someone to invite the best doctor from Penglai Island.
After carefully examining the pills, the doctor said, "These pills are made from the finest tonics. Each of the ingredients is beneficial when taken separately, but the overall effect... I'm sorry that I can't tell whether it's poisonous or not."
The Demon Lord pondered for a long time before he made up his mind to give the pill to Tao Yanyan first. His heart disease needed to be cured, and after taking the pill, he would not draw blood from his heart and would not be hurt.
In order to get Tao Yanyan to eat it smoothly, the Demon Lord went to Huajian Pavilion in person.
Seeing that the Demon Lord wanted to take the pill given by the black-hearted Taoist priest, Tao Yanyan quickly ran away a few meters, his face full of resistance: "I told you a long time ago that the Taoist priest's words can't be believed, can't be believed! Human blood can't be eaten, and there is no difference between heart blood and other blood. Why don't you listen? He gave me this marrow cleansing pill, I suspect it is a poison that controls my mind. Once I take it, he can control me at will. I have no thoughts and will only listen to him!"
When Tao Yanyan thought about Qi Yizheng's performance, he basically concluded that Qi Yizheng might have been fed the marrow cleansing pill by the old Taoist, but Qi Yizheng's poisoning symptoms were mild and he could still control himself.
Tao Yanyan is a weak girl, if she really eats it, she will probably be completely stunned!
Seeing her resistance, the Demon Lord felt unhappy. In fact, he had already regarded this half-sister as his own and always hoped to minimize the harm. However, this sister did not want to save him, which really disappointed him.
"Be good and take the medicine. I've already consulted a doctor and they are all tonics." The Demon Lord coaxed softly.
Tao Yanyan still struggled: "So what if they are all tonics? Pharmacological conflicts sometimes cause several tonics to become poisons when mixed together. Then the old Taoist really lied to you. Human blood cannot be eaten. Can you just believe me this time?"
Tao Yanyan was about to cry. She really looked like a fish on a chopping board, about to be sliced into pieces.
Seeing the little girl's anxious eyes welling up with tears, the Demon Lord had no choice but to coax her: "Well, since you are so resistant and unwilling to eat, I will let you think about it for a few more days."
Having said that, it is obvious that as soon as Tao Yanyan relaxed her vigilance, the Demon Lord teleported to her side and trapped her.
Seeing that he was restraining himself and was about to feed the medicine into his mouth, Tao Yanyan hugged him in a bear hug and buried his head in his chest, refusing to show his face even if he died.
The Demon Lord, who was hugged tightly, had his breathing stagnated and a strange feeling surged into his heart.
He tried to push, but the person in his arms didn't move at all. The Demon Lord took a deep breath and spoke in a gentle voice that he himself didn't even notice: "Don't be a rogue. Take the medicine obediently. When I am cured, if you want to return to the palace, I will send you back. If you don't want to go back, I will find you... a live-in husband."
Tao Yanyan said in a muffled voice: "I don't want to take medicine. I can't trust that black-hearted Taoist priest!"
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and the Demon Lord was helpless: "Then don't eat today, can you get out of my arms first?"
He felt that if he continued to be held like this, he would not be able to control himself.
The Demon Lord, who was struggling internally and despising himself for his impure thoughts, was now on the brink of collapse. The little girl was too delicate, and if he used too much strength he was afraid she would get hurt, but if he didn't use any strength he couldn't push people away. She was like an octopus and a turtle, and there was nothing he could do.
What the Demon Lord is most worried about now is that someone comes. If they see the two of them hugging each other, that would be disgraceful!
But the more you don't want something to happen, the more it will happen.
The eldest lady had been very angry since the banquet, and she was really mad today. She was ready to come over and teach Tao Yanyan a lesson so that she would remember it. She had already arrived outside the Huajian Pavilion, but was stopped by Weilan.
Hearing the noise coming from outside, the Demon Lord was anxious and couldn't help asking, "Someone is coming, are you sure you still want to hold me like this?"
Tao Yanyan knew that she would not be a match for anyone if she fought with force, so she could only act rogue now. Anyway, the eldest lady disliked her, so it didn't matter if she was accused of being the Charming Demon Lord. Anyway, she absolutely could not take the medicine today.
Not only should it not be eaten, it should also be destroyed during the chaos.
But the Demon Lord couldn't just stand there and watch outsiders see the brother and sister hugging each other, so he had no choice but to take his people and leave first.
After looking around, the Demon Lord led his men to teleport behind the bookshelf.
After the two hid in the bookshelf, Tao Yanyan still didn't care what the outside world thought, as he couldn't show his face.
During this stalemate, the eldest lady broke through Weilan's obstruction and rushed in.
"Where is the little bitch? Get out here now!"
The eldest lady's angry voice rang out in the room. Tao Yanyan trembled, but still held the Demon Lord tightly.
The Demon Lord felt miserable, he was in a dilemma. If he went out, he would be seen hugging his own sister and he would not be able to explain himself. If he did not go out, he would feel like he was about to explode with the heat.
The eldest lady was looking everywhere in the house, and Weilan tried to stop her, but this time the eldest lady had experience and brought many people with her, so she couldn't stop her at all.
Seeing that they were about to be exposed, the Demon Lord leaned back, trying to hide more. However, he triggered some mechanism and the wall behind them suddenly opened. The two were caught off guard and fell in.
The moment he fell in, the Demon Lord subconsciously protected Tao Yanyan and let her fall on him.
"Hmm..." Perhaps because of the bump on his back, the Demon Lord cried out, "You look so skinny, but I didn't expect you to be quite heavy."
A small bottle rolled out of the Demon Lord's sleeve pocket. Tao Yanyan took the opportunity to grab it and poured all the pills inside onto the dark ground.
Demon Lord: "..."
I protected you from falling, but you tried to steal my medicine. You really are good at taking advantage of troubled waters!
But now the medicine has sunk into the dirty ground, and the Demon Lord is helpless and has to find a Taoist priest later.
He took out a tinder, lit it gently, and the surrounding space instantly lit up.
"This should be a secret passage." The Demon Lord said as he held his waist and pushed the door, but he could not open it.
"I can't push it open, so I have to think of another way out." The Demon Lord said as he held his waist and looked around. Tao Yanyan was not panicked at all, she knew that this should be the secret passage of Huajian Pavilion that Qi Yizheng had told her.
