"They are just living corpses who are complemented by blood and poison."

Even as Gu Daiyan explained, his hands were still restrained by Duan Chengxuan's shackles, making it difficult for him to move.

"You've found the source of everything." Duan Chengxuan looked back at her eyes that were too bright, then slightly narrowed his eyes. "Your eyes …"

"Our Yun clan's flesh and blood is different because we are the same as the Zhu Family, we are poisoned, and the iron bell's poison is a medicine to prolong our lives, and the so-called 'immortality' is only a type of specially designed death-like medicine. Only by irrigating your body with poison will your body not decay and die." Gu Danyan tilted his head and leaned over to place his chin on Duan Chengxuan's shoulder. "The decaying substances of Bu Zheng Grass and Er Dan Scarlet Fruit just so happen to be highly toxic, and they also caused me to become like this right now. If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have hastily healed my eyes, causing me to constantly feel pain and discomfort recently."

Gu Danyan's voice was much softer, and it even brushed past his neck as if he was trying to please him.

No matter how much Duan Chengxuan wanted to be angry, hearing it like this would only leave him with worry in his heart. Fortunately, he had accepted Zhang Liangshan as his subordinate when he first arrived, and now he only wanted Zhang Liangshan to examine Gu Lianshan's pulse. The conclusion he came to was no different from that of the doctors from before.

As he listened, Duan Chengxuan's heart grew anxious as well. "In this way, you'll have to continue borrowing the poison's effects to prolong your life?"

"Once I consume too much of the poison, it will cause me to grow patient. At that time, the poison I'll need will no longer be an ordinary poison. It's a pity that the poison in my body right now is the stem of the phoenix gallbladder. Even if I were to find an even more powerful poison from my mother, it would only be able to extend my lifespan by ten years. " Gu Daiyan carefully removed both of her arms from Duan Cheng Xuan's hands. Her pair of eyes carefully sized up Duan Cheng Xuan's expression until she confirmed that there was nothing else in his eyes other than worry.

She heaved a sigh of relief as she felt the weight on her shoulders sink. Duan Chengxuan held her shoulders as a layer of frost appeared on his face. "Are you the one that cherishes your life?"

"I only took the risk to gamble, but I didn't expect my gamble to be so one-sided." Gu Mingyan swallowed her saliva. She was even more worried that Duan Chengxuan would put him under house arrest because of this.

Unfortunately, things went against her wishes. When her legs were restrained by the cotton chains, she still couldn't help but shout at Duan Chengxuan, and her two hands held tightly onto his sleeves. "I'm here to negotiate with you."

"Just stay by my side. Zhang Liangshan will take care of this."

"I can do it myself." Gu Dingdang wished she could pull off his coat: "Plus, I didn't mention anything about the peace talks. Aren't you curious about the reason behind Sky Flame's actions that day?"

Looking at how Gu Danyan was like a child who only knew how to grab on to an adult's clothes and throw a tantrum, Duan Chengxuan could only sigh heavily with a gloomy face. He sat back down on the edge of the bed and said, "It's naturally good to have courage and foresight, but it's not achieved by harming one's own body."

"But what else do I have but intelligence and the will to die?" Gu Danyan quickly grabbed his arm and raised his head to look at him: "These things are things that I voluntarily participate in, and I'm willing to pay the price for them."

"I am similarly willing to pay the price for you, but you are clearly familiar with the human heart, how can I not know that you have hurt Ah Zi's and Ping Chuan's hearts. I'm afraid even Mother cannot see through you." Duan Chengxuan raised his hand to ruffle her hair and said helplessly, "I hope this will be the last time we stand on opposite ends."

"You're not asking me why I'm helping Duan Chengrui?"

"If I ask, won't you help me?" Duan Chengxuan looked at her coldly.

"He admires me and is willing to give me everything I want. Since I know, I can't let him down, not to mention that he is indeed more suitable to be the emperor than someone as impulsive as you."

"Then prepare to let me down." Duan Chengxuan's tone was ordinary, so much so that it revealed a sense of grievance.

I only decided to do this because I believe that you and I will not provoke each other. Furthermore, we had previously agreed to go to the Sky Flame Continent together and after that, we would both act. Yet, you are so worried that my faction would go against your will and come up to me several times for help, afraid that others will not know that the noble King Jing likes me …

Before Gu Danyan could finish speaking, Duan Chengxuan had already stuffed his mouth back into his throat.

Seeing that the man's eyes were bloodshot, Gu Pingyan could only obediently hug his neck. Both of them laid on the bed. There was no need to say more about their other thoughts.

Only after Duan Chengxuan left the tent did the woman on the bed hastily change her clothes and lazily lean on the bed. She lightly sighed at the iron chains on her ankles as a key appeared in her hand.

Su Yuwan and Yue Qing walked in after her. Su Yuwan's face was pale while Yue Qing left her clean clothes by the bed in disdain. "You dissolute woman."

"When you're with my son's father, how can you talk wanton?" Gu Liuyan did not hide anything, revealing a large portion of her snow-white skin. The black scars had faded a lot, and the red marks on the skin caused the two of them to pale in the face.

Provoking in broad daylight! Shameless!

Yue Qing took off her dirty clothes while Su Yuwan shouted hysterically, "You told me to follow you here just to let me watch you and …"

"Only then can you hate him even more and then forget about him." After Gu Mingyan changed into Dong Ri's clothes, she stood up and walked in front of Su Yu Wan. Just like before, she embraced her into her arms: "Only then can you truly know how much Mu Qing loves you. Perhaps you just misunderstood him."

Su Yu Wan must have really wanted to kill the man in front of her.

But right now, the embrace was as warm as before, and Gu Danyan's voice sounded next to her ear, "If it wasn't for Duan Chengxuan, we wouldn't have become enemies. Why do you always want to hate me? It's him, isn't it? "

Gu Danyan's eyes gradually became sharp, but her fingertips were already gently stroking the horrifying wounds on Su Yuwan's face, comforting her in a soft voice.

"Right now, the real secret is only shared between us. We all know that immortality is only an excuse used by those detestable men, and we will use this protective talisman to counterattack them. Duan Chengxuan betrayed you, so he killed my child." We should all hate him. If you don't believe I'm standing by my side, they'll kill me. " Gu Danyan's voice had a slight allure, and he could only say the last sentence lightly: "Only if I live will you be able to live well. You are mine, aren't you?"

In Su Yu Wan's chaotic mind, she had already forgotten all of Gu Tinyan's past actions. All that was left was the cold words of Duan Chengxuan and the words of his childhood mixed together.

Gu Danyan patted her shoulder and left, his eyes filled with frost.

Stockholm syndrome was a simple theory, but Su Yu Wan was easily bewitched.

How could she let Su Yu Wan live the rest of her life in peace like this?
