Chapter 636 - 377: You Smell of Her Perfume
"Are you sure?"
After a brief daze, Jiang Wanzhao fixed Zou Feng with a piercing gaze, trying to read something on his face.
Facing Jiang Wanzhao’s scrutinizing gaze, Zou Feng, who believed his actions were just and his conscience clear, felt no fear. He declared with conviction, "I’m sure!"
"Is it really necessary?" Jiang Wanzhao pressed, unwilling to accept it.
Zou Feng shrugged. "If Senior Sister Jiang had let me treat the poison right when you were first afflicted, it wouldn’t have been necessary. But now..."
These words made Jiang Wanzhao’s face flush with embarrassment. She had brought her current predicament upon herself.
But the problem was...
What Jiang Wanzhao was too embarrassed to say was that although she was the ancestor to many in the Great Yan’s Rakshasa Sect, that was just a matter of family seniority. She herself had never borne children.
After all, due to her incomplete development, she had never even gone through puberty, let alone experienced the first stirrings of love.
Later, she became obsessed with cultivating an Evil Skill, and her days were filled with fighting and killing. Then she began to pursue longevity, leaving even less time to consider such matters.
Besides, perverts like Zhao Feixiong were a minority. What normal person would genuinely pursue someone of Jiang Wanzhao’s type?
In fact, the first time Jiang Wanzhao truly matured and had the reactions of a normal woman was thanks to the bowl of youpo noodles Zou Feng made for her five-hundredth birthday.
All in all, it was only natural for a five-hundred-year-old virgin to be so conflicted about this.
The only saving grace was that Jiang Wanzhao had a rather good impression of Zou Feng.
This good impression had nothing to do with his looks, nor the fact that Zou Feng was a very successful investment of hers.
It was because of that bowl of youpo noodles that had allowed her to "grow up."
Then again, no matter the reason, anyone would be deeply impressed by the person who helped them grow.
Seeing that Jiang Wanzhao was still hesitating, Zou Feng considered telling her that there wasn’t much to look at anyway, but decided against it.
"Fine!"
After struggling with her decision for a while, Jiang Wanzhao finally made up her mind.
Since she couldn’t return to the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect for the time being, she couldn’t let the poison continue to worsen.
Having recuperated in secret for so many days without making a public appearance had likely already started a lot of vicious rumors.
If someone with ulterior motives confirmed that her injuries had still not healed, then the upcoming wedding would most likely be jeopardized.
The marriage alliance between the Yu Long Lake’s Dragon Race and a prodigy from the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect was no small matter. It was also tied to Jiang Wanzhao’s merits for guarding the Northern Domain and could not be allowed to fail.
At this thought, Jiang Wanzhao stood up and, on the spot, burst out of her clothes, baring everything.
Although Zou Feng didn’t understand why Jiang Wanzhao chose to "burst out of her clothes," the sight that suddenly met his eyes confirmed his earlier thought. ’Flat as a prairie. There really isn’t much to see.’
’If she could switch to her mature form, I might actually find it a little hard to concentrate on the treatment.’
"Senior Sister Jiang, please forgive my impertinence!"
With that, Zou Feng immediately activated his Soul-Snatching Blood Eyes to get a better view of the wolf poison’s pathways.
That’s right. Not only did she have to be naked, but he also had to activate his Soul-Snatching Blood Eyes to see more clearly and target the poison for expulsion.
Although he wasn’t lusting after Jiang Wanzhao’s body, Zou Feng was extremely greedy for the wolf poison within her.
One had to remember that when Xia Jingrui detonated her Golden Core, Jiang Wanzhao had been the closest one and had taken the full brunt of the explosion’s power.
In other words, the wolf poison in her body was explosively concentrated!
If he could absorb all of this wolf poison into himself, Zou Feng didn’t even have to think to know it would be an incredible high!
He just didn’t know which of his Poison Skills or Poison Techniques would benefit after the Refinement of so much wolf poison...
Seeing Zou Feng walk around her, inspecting her from every angle until he had seen everything, left Jiang Wanzhao with very complicated feelings.
Especially since with her keen eyes, she could tell that Zou Feng truly had no disrespectful intentions and was just seriously preparing to expel the poison.
This, paradoxically, made her feel inexplicably annoyed. She wished she could switch to her mature form right then and there just to see if he would remain so composed.
Unfortunately, that was just a wish. Ever since she was injured and poisoned, Jiang Wanzhao hadn’t been able to switch to her mature form...
Before long, a fierce glint flashed in Zou Feng’s blood-red eyes.
Then, his hands moved, one palm pressing on Jiang Wanzhao’s chest, the other on her Dantian.
Suddenly being pressed by Zou Feng’s large, fan-like hands, Jiang Wanzhao, who had thought she was prepared, couldn’t help but gasp.
"Senior Sister Jiang, don’t move, and don’t circulate your energy!"
Before Zou Feng’s voice had even faded, he began to frantically rub the areas on Jiang Wanzhao’s body where the poison was most concentrated, as if scrubbing her in a bath.
And it had to be said, with essentially no obstructions, he didn’t need to hold back at all.
As for Jiang Wanzhao, she had already thrown caution to the wind, simply closing her eyes and letting Zou Feng do as he pleased.
Jiang Wanzhao had seen Zou Feng detoxify others from the wolf poison before, and it really did look like he was scrubbing it out of them...
Soon, Zou Feng was rubbing so hard he was covered in sweat.
This wasn’t an act. Jiang Wanzhao was deeply poisoned, and after being continuously strengthened, the wolf poison was acting as if it had gained Spiritual Wisdom, dodging and hiding everywhere.
Therefore, Zou Feng had to be on high alert, waging a battle of wits and will against the wolf poison.
Besides, this wolf poison was, after all, inflicted by a Golden Core Realm expert. At Zou Feng’s current Realm, even with his poison resistance maxed out, it was still an incredibly strenuous task.
In short, this detoxification process was more exhausting than using the Power of Seven Dragons combined with a full-power Bursting Qi state.
But the effort was worth it. He was close. The mass of wolf poison was about to break.
Gritting his teeth, the Golden Lotus in Zou Feng’s palm suddenly bloomed, finally trapping the mass of wolf poison.
But this wouldn’t hold for long. He had to force the wolf poison out of Jiang Wanzhao’s body as quickly as possible, or it would eventually break free from its restraints and escape again.
