Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1273 I can’t keep this person

Facing Xiao Qian's hopeful look.

Emperor Shitian opened his mouth, but in the end he did not say the word "good".

He walked to the window and looked up at the stars.

Fireflies were flying outside the window, dotted sporadically in the courtyard, and the clear water reflected the river, as if it were a small canopy filled with silver stars.

He couldn't see anything in the pool.

Looking up, his life star seemed so dim in the bright night sky.

It is said that man can conquer heaven, but man will never be able to defeat heaven.

He has been fighting for survival all his life, but the result is that he hastened to the point of no return.

That's all, I have lived in this cold world for 42 years, I should be content.

Emperor Shitian chuckled, turned around and took out a box from the cabinet, placed it gently in front of Xiao Qian, and slowly opened the box, revealing the gorgeous feathers.

He said: "If one day I am faced with a situation where I have to die, I hope you can tie these feathers into the seven acupoints on my body so that I can die in your hands and I will die without regrets."

Xiao Qian didn't go to pick up the box, nor did she ask where the seven acupoints were.

She lowered her eyelids, not wanting to lie to this poor, pathetic man for a moment.

However, she held back.

She pushed the box over: "I can't do it."

Emperor Shitian didn't say anything and silently put the box away.

At this moment, the smell of blood hit his nostrils.

Emperor Shitian flicked his sleeves and moved the door slowly. Jiu Wan, who was covered in blood, knelt on the ground: "Master, Chang Sun Tao and Lu Mingyu's skills have greatly increased. Their subordinates are no match for them, and all the people they brought with them have been annihilated."

Emperor Shitian raised his eyelids and glanced at Jiuwan. He did not express his position on such a result, but asked: "I heard that you went to Xuefeng?"

Jiu Wan rolled his eyes and immediately knelt down on the ground to plead guilty: "Yes, Master, she has a nurturing grace for her subordinates. The subordinates can't worry about her, so they went to visit her."

Her body was shaking heavily, as if she was extremely frightened.

And there was a large amount of cold sweat streaming down the face that was stained with blood.

But in the end, Emperor Shitian did not punish Jiuwan for this, but simply said: "Get out."

Jiu Wan thanked him for his kindness, crawled out of the house on his hands and knees, and his figure soon disappeared under the moonlight.

Xiao Qian looked at the blood on the ground and frowned tightly.

She didn't want to be so close to Emperor Shitian, so she simply took out the veil and squatted down to wipe the blood on the ground.

However, for some reason, the smell of blood seemed to be stronger than usual. Xiao Qian frowned, but didn't pay attention.

Then, her eyes felt a little blurry, as if they were covered with an ominous mist. She tried to open her eyes, but she couldn't see clearly.

The bloody stain seemed to have magic power, turning into a terrifying whirlpool.

She finally tilted her head and fell to the ground.

"lady!"

Emperor Shitian's eyes suddenly condensed, and he quickly went up to support Xiao Qian.

But Xiao Qian clenched her teeth tightly, her face turned pale and pale, and she seemed extremely uncomfortable.

Emperor Shitian was very anxious and called out quickly: "Come here, bring me Jiu Wan!"

The servants outside the house hurriedly looked for Jiu Wan, but news soon came that Jiu Wan was seriously injured and unconscious.

Emperor Shitian reached out to test Xiao Qian's pulse and found that the pulse was beating extremely fast and fiercely, but Xiao Qian in her arms suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.

Emperor Shitian didn't care much and quickly used his power to protect Xiao Qian's heart.

As his power continued to drain away, his appearance was getting older at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his black hair was like a head full of falling snow.In the end, he turned into a gray-haired old man, thin and rickety, and aged.

He tremblingly touched Xiaoqian's wrist, and when he felt the pulse gradually stabilize, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"master!"

But it was Hong Jiang’s voice.

She looked at this scene with splitting eyes, her eyes filled with tears and red bloodshot eyes.

She was in a state of embarrassment, covered in snow, and her cheeks were red from the cold.

She rushed to Emperor Shitian and roared: "Master, you are crazy!"

Emperor Shakten was like an old man. He stood up tremblingly, retreated to the wall exhausted, sat down against the wall and gasped for air.

He did not pursue Hong Jiang's crime of escaping from prison. Instead, he said: "You came just in time. Go and show her what's going on. You can still be relied upon at the critical moment."

Hong Jiang took a deep breath, and the anger in his heart disappeared because of these words.

She bent down and put her hand on Xiao Qian's veins, her face became very ugly again.

She knew that this was a sign of being poisoned.

Except for Jiuwan, who could inject such a powerful poison.

It seems that Jiuwan has calculated everything correctly - first, he went to Xuefeng to give her something to escape, and used words to provoke her to escape from prison. Then, he saw the right time for her to come back and poisoned Chu Xiaoqian, with the purpose of making her escape. She saw the scene where her master risked his life for Xiao Qian.

But maybe Jiuwan didn't expect that his angry self would be calmed down by his master's words.

Otherwise, I don’t know what irreparable things will be done.

This damn girl has such scheming intentions. It seems she can’t stay.

Hong Jiang was like a piece of unreserved paper in Emperor Shitian's eyes. Seeing her expression change, he guessed something.

Emperor Shitian raised his eyebrows and asked in an old and hoarse voice: "What's going on?"

Hong Jiang forced herself to calm down, and in the end she just said: "Returning to Master, it's just the reflux of Qi and blood caused by a momentary emotional excitement."

Emperor Shitian suddenly laughed: "Is it so easy for me to fool you now?"

Just when Hong Jiang was about to explain, Emperor Shitian said again: "I think that even if everyone can deceive me, you can't."

Hong Jiang suddenly raised his eyes, trying to find a serious look in Emperor Shitian's eyes.

Although her words sounded so touching, at this moment, she no longer had the unconditional trust she had before. Instead, she had some doubts about the truth of the words.

But how can someone who has been in his heart for decades be so easily erased?
Unable to live up to expectations, she finally told the truth: "Go back to the master, she has been poisoned."

Emperor Shitian instantly understood the key and asked, "Can it be solved?"

Hong Jiang took a deep breath, as if suppressing some uncomfortable emotion.

Finally, she said: "Yes, my subordinate will help her."

Emperor Shitian nodded slightly: "Thank you for your hard work."

Hong Jiang didn't hesitate anymore and cured the poison for Xiao Qian.

But because the poison was so powerful, Xiao Qian suffered internal injuries and couldn't wake up for a while.

Emperor Shitian supported the wall and stood up with difficulty.

He staggered to Xiao Qian's side, looked at Xiao Qian who was breathing slowly, and his eyes suddenly became sharp: "Hongjiang, kill Jiu Wan, and the previous things will be wiped out."

Hong Jiang clenched her fists tightly, but did not obey her words as before.

Her thoughts changed rapidly, and finally they turned into three words: "Why?"
