Kapitel 256

His wildness made me faint several times last night. Every time I woke up, it was because of his violent thrusting. Every time I woke up, I saw him pressing down on me and doing the same repetitive actions.

She was terrified, but she had no choice but to submit to him. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he seemed completely unaware of what he was doing, simply following his instincts, which terrified her to death!

He didn't even know when he stopped.

Yi Yun Muchen looked at his wine-red, somewhat messy long hair, touched his face, and then checked his breath. He was breathing, and only then did she feel a little relieved.

In that instant, he suddenly opened his eyes. His heterochromatic eyes had returned to their original color, one black and one red, with a bright light in the pupils... Yi Yun Muchen finally felt relieved and forgot that he was being watched.

"Mu Chen..." he called out softly, as if centuries had passed.

"Mmm," Yi Yunmu Chen replied softly.

"I hurt you... I'm sorry..." His eyes quickly swept over her entire body, noticing her delicate lips, the bruises all over her body, and the swelling down there.

Her face flushed instantly, and she covered her sensitive areas with her hands. "Don't look!"

"I couldn't control myself." Bei Gong Jue Shi didn't feel embarrassed at all. He got up from the ground and pulled her into his arms. The two of them hugged each other naked.

Yi Yunmu suddenly thought of pushing him away, "Don't do this..."

"What part of you haven't I seen or kissed? What are you being shy about?" Bei Gong Jue Shi whispered in her ear, and she trembled all over.

He then embraced her, saying, "I won't touch you for a while; I hurt you too badly last night..."

“Peerless…” she murmured softly.

"You remember everything, don't you?" Bei Gong Jue Shi's tone was quite cold at this moment.

"Yes." She nodded, then said, "I'm sorry, Jueshi, I'm so sorry, I... I'm really sorry..."

"It's alright... It's just one arm. I can hold you with the other one." He sighed softly. "I'd be willing to trade an arm for you."

"Jue Shi!" Yi Yun Muchen hugged him tightly, ignoring her own body as she pressed against his strong chest, "You're so stupid, so stupid! You shouldn't have fought him to the death. You hurt yourself, and I'm heartbroken too! My heart aches every time I see your severed arm. I'm so useless, so utterly useless. I've always been your jinx! I've always made you hurt and used by others! Jue Shi, let's go! I don't want to stay here, I... I want to..."

Before she could finish speaking, Bei Gong Jue Shi had already kissed her cherry lips fiercely. He pulled her against him, his left hand gripping her slender waist, kissing her until she was dizzy before releasing her. "We won't leave, we'll stay. I will definitely avenge this severed arm! Now that my seal has been broken, I have enough power to fight against Yi Yun Shang City!"

"I...I don't want to see you killing each other..." she said after being stunned for a moment.

"Mu Chen..." She must be the one who is in the most pain. She woke up to find that she had been used by her brother time and time again. Now, she wants to get some justice, but she is still standing in the middle!

"He has used you so many times, do you really think he deserves forgiveness?" Bei Gong Jue Shi looked at her, his eyes flickered, and then immediately turned red.

Her heart skipped a beat. "I don't know. He... I don't know!" She shook her head violently.

“I know you are in pain, but I promise you, I will not take his life, okay?” Bei Gong Jue Shi looked at her.

“Okay.” Yi Yunmu Chen nodded. “Actually, I hate him too… I hate him. If it weren’t for him, you wouldn’t have lost your arm, I wouldn’t be so injured, and I wouldn’t have handed the Nine Curves Heavenly Palace over to the Princess Consort of the Southern Dynasty…”

"Nine-Bend Heavenly Palace?" Bei Gong Jue Shi's eyes returned to their original color as he recalled the small black box he had seen in the Imperial Garden. "What secrets does it hold?"

"The Nine-Bend Heavenly Palace can only be opened three times. Once, it was already opened in the Imperial Garden. I don't know what will happen, and only my brother probably knows the secrets within. When I woke up, I was lying in bed, and my brother told me that I had been sick for a long time. When I woke up, he had already become the king."

He brought me here for a political marriage because he wanted to consolidate his power. He said he liked Prince Nan and had heard that Prince Nan was a good man, so he intended to marry me to him... But I saw Prince Nan and his wife being very affectionate in the Imperial Garden, so I thought I should tell him.

"I never expected that a series of things would happen afterward, and you know all about them." Yi Yunmu looked at him, her eyes filled with love.

"Hmm." Bei Gong Jue Shi nodded. "So, it seems he actually wanted me to become a demon... Hmph! He's already got what he wanted! Mu Chen, are you willing to cooperate with me?"

"What do you want?" Yi Yun Muchen looked at Bei Gong Jue Shi with a slight fear.

"I think it's time for us to put on an act. I want to marry you." Bei Gong Jue Shi looked at her. "To marry you, I must become his pawn. Do you understand?"

"I... understand." Yi Yunmu Chen finally agreed, lowering her head, "I also want to marry you."

He held her in his arms and said, "I want to marry you too, so much... You should be carrying my baby in your arms."

"So fast?" Yi Yun Muchen whispered, "I'm only fourteen..."

He shook his head as he listened, "You're not young anymore."

After a long while, Bei Gong Jue Shi finally released her, then stood up. Looking at her torn silk robe on the ground and his own shattered clothes, he frowned, wondering how he and she were going to get out.

Yi Yunmu Chen put some scraps of clothing on himself. If it weren't for the fire burning inside the cave and the winding passageway that made it difficult for the wind to get in, he would have been shivering with cold long ago.

"I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere and wait for me here. Don't wander off." Bei Gong Jue Shi looked at the scene, thought for a moment, and then said.

Yi Yunmu nodded, "Okay."

He knelt down and kissed her forehead. "Wait for me."

"Wait, let me check your wounds and pulse." Only then did Yi Yun Muchen remember his injuries.

Bei Gong Jue Shi felt a warmth in his heart and was reluctant to leave. "Okay." He sat down and then stood openly in front of her, his desire undisguised. She blushed and didn't deliberately look at him. If he didn't say anything, she would pretend she didn't see anything!

She propped herself up and looked at the bottles scattered on the ground. They must have been the medicine bottles that rolled around when he tore his clothes.

Let's see if there's anything we can use.

Yi Yun Muchen looked at the wound medicine, some painkillers, and even more, the Heart-Eating Gu that he had developed for Yi Yun Shangcheng!

Yi Yunmu took the ointment and gently applied it to her body before crawling towards him. "Don't look at me." His eyes were fixed on her intently, not letting her miss a single detail.

"Hmm." He turned his face away.

She took his left arm and checked his pulse. She found that his pulse was fluctuating greatly, but there was nothing else wrong. Then she looked at his severed arm and saw that the bleeding had stopped.

However, she still felt a sense of regret, and a feeling of self-blame welled up in her heart, causing her to sob softly.

Upon hearing this, Bei Gong Jue Shi immediately turned around and hugged her, saying, "Don't cry."

“I hate myself even more… I’m sorry, I feel so guilty, I’m so sad, I’m so heartbroken, seeing you like this makes me so sad… Waaah…” Yi Yun Muchen shook his head violently, tears streaming down his face.

He held her in his arms. "Don't cry, don't blame yourself. If you blame yourself, I'll be sad too." He looked at his severed arm. He couldn't talk about the pain, and more importantly, he might have to practice his swordsmanship with his left arm. Luckily, his fist techniques involved double gauntlets... Oh well!

Everything comes at a price. If I have to pay such a price to get her, I'll accept it and be willing to do so!

“Peerless…” she sobbed softly. He felt hot all over and looked at her. “Mu Chen, don’t move.”

"Hmm?" Yi Yunmu Chen looked up in surprise, only to be met with strange eyes filled with deep desire. She immediately took a step back. "I'll treat the wound soon!" She sprinkled the powder from the medicine bottle onto his severed arm, and then simply bandaged it with the scraps of cloth.

He stood up, like a celestial being, and said, "I will be back soon, wait for me."

"Um."

...

When Ji Wushang woke up, it was past breakfast time; to be precise, he woke up hungry. Opening his eyes, he saw that Nan Xuzong was no longer beside him, and he felt a sense of loss. But in that instant, he heard a deep male voice call out, "Wushang."

"Cong." Ji Wushang looked up at him and said, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

“You’re too tired, you need to rest more, no rush.” Nan Xuzong looked at her and pushed her wheelchair forward. “Are you hungry? Your meal is ready, it’s just outside.”

"Hmm." Ji Wushang nodded, then got out of bed. Zhu'er walked in from outside, smiling, and said, "Young Master, Miss."

"Change Wu Shang's clothes." Nan Xuzong's lips twitched.

"Yes," Pearl said, stepping forward.

Ji Wushang hummed in agreement, but seeing that Nan Xuzong had no intention of leaving, he felt embarrassed. With Zhu'er present, why didn't he know to leave?

Nan Xuzong didn't sense anything was wrong at all. He just stared at Ji Wushang, who stood there, unsure whether to change his clothes or not.

Zhu'er glanced at Nan Xuzong, then at Ji Wushang, feeling awkward standing between the two of them.

"What's wrong? Is it because you don't like Zhu'er? Do you want me to do it?" He raised a slight smile.

Ji Wushang blushed so deeply she wanted to disappear into the ground, and Zhu'er was also quite embarrassed. This Prince Nan... she never expected him to say such a thing... she had always taken care of her young mistress. It seemed the young master really treated her young mistress very well; as long as her young mistress was happy!

"Miss..." Pearl asked softly, "Then Pearl will go down first..."

"No." Ji Wushang immediately said. He had slept a little too long and was a bit hungry. He didn't want to make a fuss anymore. If he wanted to watch, let him watch to his heart's content. "Change your clothes."

“Yes.” Pearl nodded immediately.

Nan Xuzong smiled, his eyes deep and unfathomable as he stared at Ji Wushang.

Ji Wushang glanced at him, then turned her back and refused to look at him.

Pearl took off her sleeping gauze dress, her undergarments, and her underpants, and then put on new ones.

As Nan Xuzong watched her unintentional movements, his lower body felt as if it were on fire... Every inch of her beauty was tempting all his senses! He suppressed the throbbing in his heart and then looked at her standing in front of him, fully dressed.

"Let's have a meal," Nan Xuzong managed to say.

Ji Wushang nodded, then helped push his wheelchair outside. The two were so in sync, as if they were used to each other.

Love is the gradual merging of everything between two people, the slow getting used to each other, and the inability to feel at ease without the other.

Ji Wushang ate slowly, but the man kept staring at him. Ji Wushang couldn't help but look up at him and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Um."

"So you can just watch me eat?" He meant that he was watching him eat, and he felt too embarrassed.

"Um."

Hearing his one-word reply and the ever-smiling expression, Ji Wushang had no choice but to continue eating. After taking a bite, she looked up and gave him a smile, "Watch if you like!"

"Okay." A smile spread across his face.

Ji Wushang fell silent and continued drinking his porridge.

After breakfast, Nan Xuzong had the food removed and then said, "Let's go for a walk. I'll take you to Yuqiong Tower first."

"Jade Pavilion?" Ji Wushang was quite surprised, then a hint of worry appeared on his face. "The matter from yesterday hasn't been resolved yet. Aren't you worried?"

"Don't worry, someone will follow up, hehe!" Nan Xuzong grinned foolishly. "Spending time with my wife is the priority!"

“Cong!” Ji Wushang frowned slightly and said coquettishly.

“Let’s go!” Nan Xuzong looked at her. “Don’t worry, I’ve already sent people to look for Jueshi. They should be able to find them within a few hours! As for the King of the Western Regions, I don’t think he has time to deal with us, because… hehe, he has things to do!”

"What's the matter?" Ji Wushang looked at him, feeling that he was quite good at creating trouble.

"It's a secret. Let him keep busy for a while!" Nan Xuzong said. "When he has some free time, he'll have other things to do. Besides, he still needs to find Jue Shi to control him, which is no easy task."

"Okay." Ji Wushang nodded. "I'll go check on things in the yard first. I'm practically half the head of the family; I can't just ignore what's going on in the backyard." With that, he immediately jumped off. "I'll be right back!"

"Don't stay too long, come back as soon as you see it, remember that!" Nan Xuzong had to shout loudly as he watched her retreating figure. He realized he couldn't keep her any longer, so he let her go and take a look.

Ji Wushang went to Aunt Zhao's place first. Looking at Aunt Zhao lying on the bed, his face was somewhat cold. "How is Aunt Zhao?"

"She just took her medicine and went to sleep," the maid replied softly.

Ji Wushang glanced at Aunt Zhao's face, then turned to ask, "What did the doctor say?"

"It's just food poisoning, nothing else is wrong."
