171: Old man, what are you doing?

The world in Chu Weiwei's eyes seemed to be spinning and collapsing. In the end, all that remained was the man bound to the Cold Jade Bed before her, and the dark red mark that made her burn with jealousy.

She trembled and took a deep breath, a shiver that was a mix of fear, excitement, and extreme longing.

"Revered Master, don't you regret this."

She murmured, then abruptly straightened her back. Without any hesitation, by the Cold Jade Bed, right in front of Su Lin, she opened her mouth and fiercely bit the tip of her tongue.

"Pfft."

A glob of heart's blood, containing rich medicinal fragrance and Origin power, spurted out. It didn't fall to the ground but was held aloft by her spiritual power.

This blood wasn't fresh red; instead, it presented a strange, glowing purple-gold color.

This was her core life essence, the Medicine Spirit Blood, after she, as a Medicine Immortal, refined herself into a medicine cauldron.

"With blood as the guide."

Chu Weiwei rapidly formed hand seals. The purple-gold blood danced and stretched between her fingertips, finally transforming into a bloodline as fine as hair.

She leaned down, her pure little face now filled with an almost sacred solemnity and an eerie fanaticism.

"Fifth Junior Sister is a Devil, her mark is fire, it's overbearing, it's peerless."

"Then Weiwei is water, an omnipresent entanglement."

She extended her fingertip, guiding the bloodline, and gently touched it onto the bloodied, blurred Higanbana mark on Su Lin's collarbone that she had wiped.

Sizzle!

A completely different sensation instantly struck.

If Luo Ximei's mark was the scorching heat of a branding iron, then Chu Weiwei's bloodline was a bone-chilling cold.

It was like a living ice snake, drilling into the wound, not to destroy, but only to parasitize.

Su Lin groaned. The chill rushed through his Meridians straight to his heart, causing his body, already soft from the Drunken God Incense, to involuntarily tense up.

Chu Weiwei's fingers swiftly moved over the dark red Higanbana.

She didn't try to erase it.

Just as Revered Master taught, she would cover it, she would imprison it.

Under her control, the purple-gold bloodline transformed into intricate and exquisite "Moonlight Vines."

They didn't directly clash with the Higanbana but spread and entwined along the edges of its petals.

One circle, two circles, three circles.

This was the Medicine Immortal's most masterful technique.

The originally flamboyant and freely blooming dark red Higanbana was now tightly entangled by the moon-white glowing vines.

The petals were suppressed, and the Devilish Qi was restrained.

From a distance, it looked as if the Higanbana had become nourishment for the Moonlight Vine, imprisoned in an elegant yet cold cage, only able to show a faint red glow through the gaps in the vines.

"It's done..."

Chu Weiwei withdrew her hand, her face pale as paper from the consumption of her heart's blood, but the light in her eyes was terrifyingly bright.

She lowered her head and placed a devout kiss on the brand new mark.

"Now... it's mine."

"Revered Master is also mine."

She laughed foolishly, her fingers gently caressing the patterns of the vines.

"Fifth Junior Sister wants to use this flower to declare sovereignty? Then I will use this vine to lock her sovereignty inside.

As long as these vines don't open, her flower will never see the light of day."

Su Lin looked at the mark on his chest, which was now twice as complex and looked more like some ancient totem, and only felt his head ache more.

One planted a flower on him.

The other planted grass on him.

Are these two wicked disciples planning to open a botanical garden on him?

"Satisfied?"

Su Lin spoke, his voice still somewhat weak, but the oppressive Aura of a Revered Master had not diminished in the slightest.

"Satisfied... Weiwei is very satisfied..."

Chu Weiwei collapsed onto Su Lin's chest, as if all her strength was spent, her cheek rubbing against the cool cold jade, listening to Su Lin's heartbeat, letting out a contented sigh.

"Revered Master, the medicine's effect is almost over, right?"

She suddenly asked.

Su Lin's heart stirred. Indeed, the soreness in his limbs was gradually fading, and the spiritual power within his body was beginning to show signs of loosening.

"It's good that you know. Aren't you going to untie me?"

Su Lin gestured at the silk ribbons wrapped around him.

"No way..."

Chu Weiwei drew circles on his chest, her voice lazy and cunning,

"Anyway, I'm going to be punished, so why not... linger a little longer."

"And..."

She looked up, her gaze eerily directed towards the cave entrance.

"That brute and that Devil Head are probably almost here too."

No sooner had she spoken than.

"Boom!!!"

With a loud bang, the entire cave shook violently, and several luminous pearls on the ceiling were shaken loose and fell.

The cave entrance, originally heavily protected by a concealment Formation, now looked as if it had been hit head-on by a meteor, with shattered rocks flying and dust rolling.

A terrifying Devilish Qi, intertwined with black and white, mixed with towering rage, instantly swept through the entire cave.

"Chu! Wei! Wei!"

The voice was like a vengeful spirit crawled out of the Nine Nether Hell, carrying a hatred that could grind a person to dust.

Luo Ximei stood atop the ruins, her black and gold flowing cloud dress fluttering without wind, her long black and white hair wildly dancing.

Her platinum right eye was now fixed on the two people on the Cold Jade Bed.

Especially on the Higanbana mark on Su Lin's collarbone, which was tightly entangled by the "Moonlight Vine" and barely recognizable.

That was her mark!

That was the stamp she put on Revered Master!

Now, it was actually "sealed" by this quack doctor, full of evil tricks, in such a disgusting way?!

It was like she signed her name on a beloved item, only for someone to draw a cross over it with a thicker pen and add a cage!

This was unbearable!

"You're courting death!!!"

Luo Ximei completely exploded.

Black and white Qi condensed into a giant hand that blotted out the sky, carrying an Aura that could crush everything, and slapped directly towards the Cold Jade Bed.

If this palm strike landed, let alone Chu Weiwei, even Su Lin's old bones would fall apart.

"Oh dear, Fifth Junior Sister has quite a temper."

Although Chu Weiwei's words were teasing, her movements were not slow at all.

She slapped the Cold Jade Bed, using the force to retreat quickly, and didn't forget to pull the entanglement silk ribbon, bringing Su Lin away from his original spot as well.

"Boom!"

The Cold Jade Bed was shattered into powder by the palm strike, leaving a huge palm print several zhang deep on the ground.

"Revered Master is mine! You can't take him!"

Chu Weiwei shielded Su Lin behind her, with more than a dozen glowing blue poison needles in her hand.

"Take?"

Luo Ximei was so enraged that she laughed instead, her figure flickering, instantly teleporting in front of Chu Weiwei.

"When did it become your turn to take what belongs to this Venerable One?!"

She threw a punch, and space vibrated.

Chu Weiwei dared not meet it head-on. Her figure dispersed into a wisp of smoke like a ghost, while simultaneously, a dozen poison needles stabbed towards Luo Ximei's vital points.

"Petty tricks!"

Luo Ximei didn't even look. With a shake of the Devilish Qi around her, she directly shattered the poison needles into dust.

Two powerful beings, in this narrow cave, fought fiercely over the right to a mark.

Spiritual energy surged, poison gas permeated, and Devilish Qi churned.

The Jade Toad Cave, originally decorated with extreme luxury and intimacy, instantly turned into ruins.

And Su Lin, tied up like a zongzi by the entanglement silk ribbon and thrown in a corner, was now leaning against the rock wall, covered in dust, watching the farce before him with mixed emotions.

"Old Man!"

Just then, a red figure darted in through the large hole at the cave entrance.

Su Hongling was still carrying her giant sword. She had originally come to watch the commotion after hearing the noise, but then she caught sight of Su Lin in the corner.

"Holy crap! Old Man, what are you playing at?"

Her eyes instantly lit up, and she rushed over as if she had discovered a new continent.

"I was wondering why I couldn't find you. Turns out you were kidnapped!"
