"Yes!"
"But how can I possibly do that? It's Jun Linyuan we're talking about here! THE Jun Linyuan!" Feng Wu said grumpily.
Yu Mingye pursed his lips. "Have you forgotten about me?"
"What do you mean?"
"He's Jun Linyuan — so what?! True, he's brilliant and awesome, but am I weak and stupid, then?" Irritated, Yu Mingye rolled his eyes at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu really wanted to nod her head, but since she still cherished her life, she could only shake it in silence…
"Is that so?" Feng Wu said casually. "Tell me about it."
Immortal Spiritual Fruit… HER Immortal Spiritual Fruit! With it, she would be able to resume her cultivation! And with that, she could wake up her beautiful master, who was the most powerful being on this continent.
At that thought, Feng Wu could barely keep her excitement at bay and her heart beat so fast that it felt like it was going to jump out of her mouth.
Yu Mingye had no idea of the tumult of emotions inside Feng Wu's head. Darting a look at Feng Wu, he tossed an object at her.
Catching it, Feng Wu saw that it was some liquid.
"That's a switching needle," Yu Mingye informed Feng Wu in a complacent tone. "Your job is to suck out the juice of that Immortal Spiritual Fruit and replace it with the liquid in this needle."
Feng Wu pointed at the switching needle and the see-through pouch attached to it and asked, "This liquid isn't toxic, is it?"
Yu Mingye gave her an "are you an idiot" look. "Toxic liquid? What kind of person do you think I am? Of course it's super toxic liquid!"
Feng Wu was speechless.
Staring at Feng Wu, Yu Mingye said, "Wait, don't tell me you going soft all of a sudden. You do realize that you're my woman now, right? It's too late to back out now!"
After that, Yu Mingye glared at Feng Wu in a strange, conflicted way.
Conflicted? What was Yu Mingye conflicted about? Feng Wu was confused.
Yu Mingye, on the other hand, scratched his head, rose to his feet, and began to walk around Feng Wu in circles!
He looked up at the starry night, then turned to look at Feng Wu with contempt, but he just wouldn't say a word.
Feng Wu was baffled. What was going on?
What exactly was Yu Mingye thinking? Well, he was thinking whether or not to make the girl his right here and right now, since it was all dark and secluded. That way, the girl would be his for good and she would willingly do as bid without ever questioning him.
However, what bothered Yu Mingye was… as someone that valued good looks more than anything else, he simply couldn't bring himself to do anything to a girl who looked this ordinary!
"What are you thinking about?" Feng Wu looked at him in confusion.
"No, I can't do that to myself!" The teenager clenched his fists as he reassured himself and concluded with a resolute "hm!"
Feng Wu watched speechlessly as the teenager struggled with himself. She asked again, still confused, "So, what exactly are you going to do?"
Yu Mingye turned his hand over, revealing a pink pill on his right palm.
Before Feng Wu could react, Yu Mingye stuffed that pill into her mouth!
One lick with her tongue and Feng Wu recognized it: a laxative for treating constipation.
Feng Wu had yet to digest this information when a voice sounded above her.
"Do you know what that was?!" Yu Mingye said in an intimidating voice.
Feng Wu raised her head and saw the contrived stern look on the teenager's face. She smiled.
However, before she could reply, Yu Mingye said in a cold, relentless, and condescending voice, "That's the Excruciating Soul-Destroying Bone-Crushing Mind-Poisoning Pill of Ten Thousand Ants!"
Huh? Feng Wu looked at Yu Mingye with a blank face. "That's… ten thousand ants… what?"
Yu Mingye stared at Feng Wu and repeated, "That's the Excruciating Soul-Destroying Bone-Crushing Mind-Poisoning Pill of Ten Thousand Ants!"
Feng Wu was utterly dumbfounded. This Yu Mingye was an imbecile!
Come on, she was a medicine refiner! Although she had never been officially tested, she was sure that she was one of the best in the whole of the Junwu Empire! Did this guy just call a pink laxative pill an Excruciating Soul-Destroying Bone-Crushing Mind-Poisoning Pill of Ten Thousand Ants?! Did he even know that she was the one who created the recipe for this laxative pill?
Hence, Feng Wu was at a loss for words. Looking up at the sky, she found that no star out there could even begin to understand her feelings.
Yu Mingye had no idea that he was looking at a master inventor of toxins. Crouching down, he straightened his face and threatened Feng Wu in the most serious tone he could manage. "I'm only going to ask you once. Are you scared now?"
Feng Wu said, "Yes…" My ass!
Seeing the resigned look on Feng Wu's face, Yu Mingye thought that he had successfully fooled her. He was so pleased with himself!
"Hahahaha —" Resting his hands on his waist, Yu Mingye laughed aloud at the sky. "That's right! You should be! So, don't even think about betraying me, or you'll die a miserable death from the excruciating pain of being bitten by ten thousand ants!"
Feng Wu said, "Whatever."
Yu Mingye snorted proudly. "Go back to the campsite, draw out the juice of the fruit, and fill it with this toxic liquid! Do that, or… hmph!"
Feng Wu gritted her teeth and feigned a troubled look. "But Jun Linyuan keeps the fruit by his side the whole time. How am I going to get close enough?"
Yu Mingye glared at Feng Wu, as if he was looking at an idiot. He then jabbed her smooth forehead with a finger. "Do you think I'll just sit by and watch?"
Feng Wu stumbled back a little. "But… but are you sure you can handle Jun Linyuan? He's pretty tough…"
Those provocative words worked wonders, something which Feng Wu already knew.
As expected, Yu Mingye jumped as soon as he heard that. Pointing at Feng Wu, he said, "Jun Linyuan is tough? Him? Hmph! I'll show you that I'm the tougher one! Just wait and see!"
Feng Wu asked innocently, her eyes clear and bright, "Are you sure?"
"Of course!" Yu Mingye snorted. "Excruciating Soul-Destroying Bone-Crushing Mind-Poisoning Pill of Ten Thousand Ants! Just keep that in mind!"
Feng Wu said, "Fine…"
"Come here!" Yu Mingye beckoned at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu hesitated and looked very timid.
"I'm not going to hurt you!" Seeing her reaction, Yu Mingye waved at her impatiently. "Get your ass over here! I'll talk you through my plan!"
"Sure!" Feng Wu's eyes lit up and she ran happily to his side.
Seeing that Feng Wu had turned into a gamboling puppy, Yu Mingye pursed his lips and said sulkily, "For a moment back there, I thought you were so loyal to Jun Linyuan. Tsk, tsk, I see you've converted completely once becoming my woman. Jun Linyuan will definitely be furious when he finds out."
Feng Wu made no comment. It was true. Silly teenagers were so melodramatic.
"Once you go back…" Yu Mingye whispered his plan into Feng Wu's ear.
Feng Wu nodded as she listened.
Yu Mingye might seem goofy and childish, but when he put his mind to it, he was a pretty smart guy. He wasn't as popular as Jun Linyuan for nothing.
"Lie down on it!" Holding a corner of the blanket, Yu Mingye glared at Feng Wu impatiently. "It'll be dawn soon. If Jun Linyuan finds out first, he won't hesitate to kill you with his sword!"
