Chapter 783: Chapter 783

Bazak was lost in memories.

That day, when "Sir," Liu Yi, produced that small box.

Perhaps everyone present had an intuition. That box must contain something significant.

Later, when the girl revealed her words, only then did they understand it was a variety of Poisonous Gu, originally from Dajin, used specifically by husbands to control their wives, like a chastity belt. Once a woman ingested this Poisonous Gu, only her man could touch her body.

After that, everything that happened seemed to follow naturally.

The girl had swallowed the Gu and then spat out a mouthful of blood.

Sir said it was normal, but soon after, the girl became like a bloodied figure.

Her skin was continuously oozing blood, which dripped down onto the ground.

Sir said, this was because the girl had a relatively severe rejection. Some women take the Poisonous Gu without feeling anything, while others, after taking it, experienced severe bodily reactions, but just had to endure it.

But this torment lasted an entire day and night. Later, when Sir sent the girl and the others away, he had said, "I must ensure one thing. He cares for you, and you are willing, yet the human heart is ever-changing! And since you are well-versed in the Poison Gu Art, you should understand that from now on, this Gu will be shackles on you."

Afterwards, the girl and her group had left, and Bazak just couldn’t understand why Sir would favor that Liang-named Wood boy so much?

Looking at Sir, it was clear that he was scheming for that person through and through.

The wind was going to rise again.

Liu Yi, cloaked in her cape, gazed into the distance. That was the direction where the Kechar tribe resided.

When thinking of the Kechar, she couldn’t help but remember the mother and daughter, Tuoya and Tuya, as well as Nu Woer.

Nu Woer was dead, and the ambitious second leader had taken over the tribal discourse. But according to the customs of The Outside, this successor position should have gone to the daughter, and if the daughter was deceased, then they would pick from the sons and let the son’s wife take the reins.

Nu Woer had an illegitimate son, who seemed to carry the surname Pei, but... she seriously doubted that the second leader was willing to willingly hand over the hard-won authority to someone else.

Indeed, as Liu Yi had thought, after the second leader had killed the third and fourth leaders, he decided to eradicate any further threats. And by this time, Dong Huiying and her party were drawing ever closer to home.

When the summer heat receded, they had already entered Qingfeng Prefecture.

Early autumn, when leaves scatter brilliantly.

In Xihui Courtyard, there was a planted red maple tree, under which stood a long table covered with the Four Treasures of the Study.

A clear and elegant, gentle like Jade man stood there; his left hand behind his back, and his right hand wielding a paintbrush, sometimes sketching, sometimes detailing, bringing the figures to life on the canvas as if they could step out at any moment.

After pausing, Yixuan gazed intently at the girl in the painting, his mind adrift.

In a blink, it had already been that long.

He couldn’t help sighing softly. At that moment, another man, as cold and ethereal as Bai Xian, rose from his wheelchair.

He moved towards Yixuan, glanced at the portrait on the table, and his lips tilted slightly, "Well painted."

Yixuan turned to look at his indifferent second brother and humbly replied, "It’s just a modest piece, not comparable to the second brother’s skill."

Shu Yu seemed pleased, then slowly reached out to catch a falling scarlet autumn leaf.
