24: Don't push your luck.
"Young Master Su, can you truly investigate the identity of the poisoner?"
Ji Ruoyun's thoughts were simple.
If Su Shengyuan could find the poisoner, then his claim that her son's life was in danger would be true.
And she had nothing left to be deceived about!
Su Shengyuan nodded, "Whether it's finding the poisoner or saving your son's life, it's all effortless. However, it depends on how Madam expresses herself."
Ji Ruoyun: "..."
She fell into complete silence!
So, this was blatant intimidation?
Looking at Su Shengyuan's handsome and refined face, Ji Ruoyun felt a wave of speechlessness.
Who could believe that such a gentle and amiable face would utter such threatening words?
That face was too full of Deception!
However, she then recalled the three hours she had just experienced.
Ji Ruoyun's heart felt as if a myriad of ants were crawling within it.
How to express herself? She already knew from Su Shengyuan's eyes!
He wanted to deepen the bond between them!
"Don't push your luck. Given the relationship between the Su and Ji families, I am, in a way, your elder. And I even held you when you were little..."
Suppressing the impulse in her heart, Ji Ruoyun's face was frosty, showing some anger.
However, before Ji Ruoyun could finish speaking,
Su Shengyuan stood up and walked towards the outside.
"Since that's the case, then let's forget it. This Saint is very busy."
Now it was Ji Ruoyun's turn to panic a little.
She had thought that by bringing up her status as an elder, combined with the matter of Shen Gongbao, she could easily control Su Shengyuan.
But she was wrong!
This young man in front of her was extremely cunning.
He had completely cornered her.
Just as Su Shengyuan's figure was about to disappear into the cave entrance,
Ji Ruoyun raised her delicate hand, her face anxious, and hurriedly said, "Don't go."
"Are you begging me?" Su Shengyuan stopped, not turning back, his indifferent voice like the great Dao that governs heaven and earth, devoid of any emotion.
"Mm! I beg you... don't go!"
A voice like a mosquito's buzzed.
Ji Ruoyun completely opened her heart to Su Shengyuan!
"I am willing to bow to the Saint!"
.........
Su Shengyuan walked out of the cave with his hands behind his back, looking radiant, followed by the curvaceous Ji Ruoyun.
"Where are we going?"
At this moment, the aphrodisiac in Ji Ruoyun's body had dissipated, and she had regained her elegant and noble demeanor. A red, tight-fitting long robe adorned her, like a blooming rose, enchanting and alluring.
Su Shengyuan's steps did not stop; brilliant runes rose beneath his feet, supporting his body as he flew through the air.
"I'm taking you to find the place where the poison was administered."
"Do you already know who it is? Can't you just tell me directly?"
"Heh heh, if I told Madam directly, would Madam believe it? If the answer is revealed directly, then this game becomes uninteresting."
.........
On the other side of this ancient mountain forest.
A white-robed young man had a gloomy expression, his eyes filled with shadows, seemingly searching for something.
The young man had a handsome face, with sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and distinct facial contours.
However, a hint of vicissitude flickered in his bright eyes, showcasing his extraordinary nature, as if he had experienced the passage of time.
This young man was none other than Jun Wuchen, the Son of Destiny of the strong-Possession-flow!
He had finally managed to get Ji Ruoyun alone today, and he had even used special means to drug her.
Unexpectedly, the duck that was almost cooked flew away.
He had been searching for several hours and still hadn't found Ji Ruoyun's whereabouts, which made him anxious.
If that poison wasn't dispelled in time, it would seep into the bones.
Ji Ruoyun was the former body's obsession.
If this former body's wish wasn't fulfilled, its obsession wouldn't dissipate, and this would affect his cultivation.
"Damn it, where did she go? Damn it, it's all because this body's cultivation is too low; I can't even keep up with a person."
Jun Wuchen cursed in a low voice.
Thinking of Ji Ruoyun's alluring and curvaceous figure, he couldn't help but feel waves of wicked desire.
Although he was a remnant soul of a Saint Ancestor level, he had seen countless divine beauties.
But Ji Ruoyun was simply not someone an ordinary person could resist!
Moreover, he knew that Ji Ruoyun's 'land' had been barren for the past twenty years.
With just a little help, she would understand.
But the result! Everything was ready, but the person was gone!
Perhaps this was the most tragic thing in the world!
Just then!
Jun Wuchen seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up at the sky.
He saw a handsome and peerless young man flying through the air, and beside him was the elegant and still charming Ji Ruoyun.
The two walked side by side, chatting and laughing, appearing very familiar with each other.
When Jun Wuchen noticed the hint of a young girl's blush in Ji Ruoyun's eyes,
He instantly exploded with rage, his entire mindset collapsing!
As the one who administered the drug, he naturally knew that Ji Ruoyun's poison had been dispelled, and so thoroughly at that.
Coupled with the sudden appearance of this young man.
Therefore!
His long-planned scheme, which was on the verge of bearing fruit, had ended up benefiting someone else.
"Damn it, this Saint will definitely kill you! How dare you steal the person this Saint has coveted for so long! Heh heh!"
Jun Wuchen's face showed a cold smile as he glared fiercely at Su Shengyuan's handsome face, wanting to engrave that face in his heart.
However, the thought that Ji Ruoyun's poison had actually been dispelled by this person filled him with anger and jealousy.
The one who should have dispelled the poison was him!
"The plan is ruined. It seems I can only think of another way. This Saint cannot be discovered here; I will be suspected!"
Jun Wuchen pondered for a moment.
Looking at the two figures in the sky, he snorted coldly, then quietly retreated.
He was determined to kill the young man who ruined his plan!
However, for now, Jun Wuchen could only plot in secret. Until his strength grew, he absolutely could not expose himself, otherwise, he would surely invite disaster.
Above the ancient forest!
Su Shengyuan led Ji Ruoyun in circles, flying back and forth, which made Ji Ruoyun a little displeased, thinking Su Shengyuan was toying with her.
"Are you toying with me?" Ji Ruoyun's beautiful eyes showed some anger. She had already given him all her territory, but she didn't expect to be toyed with in return.
Upon hearing this, Su Shengyuan's slender figure stopped in mid-air.
"Haven't I already toyed with you?"
Ji Ruoyun: "..."
