Rather than saying that Bai Yanqing was being threatened by Su Xiaoyu, it was better to say that Bai Yanqing was being played by Su Xiaoyu.
Bai Yanqing's eyes slowly narrowed. He had lived for more than half his life, yet he was actually being played by a stinky brat who was still wet behind the ears!
Cold, he said, "Fine, Old Man, I'd like to see how you're not going to kill yourself!"
After saying that, he immediately ordered, "Men, bring Ning Jing over to Old Man!"
Hearing this, Su Xiaoyu became nervous. She clenched her fists tightly, but her expression remained stubborn and uncompromising!
She was afraid, but fear wouldn't make people give up. Otherwise, she wouldn't have lasted until today.
Actually, she didn't know anything about the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion. She was just lying to Bai Yanqing. Therefore, she only had one path of retreat, and that was death!
When a person only had one path of death, they could throw caution to the wind and be stubborn to the end!
Bai Yanqing's cold and vicious gaze pierced through the darkness, shooting straight at her. Su Xiaoyu glared back, refusing to budge an inch. She didn't want to lose in terms of momentum.
Soon, Ning Jing was brought over.
After not seeing her for a few days, Ning Jing was so thin that she looked like she was suffering from some serious illness. Her face was so pale and haggard that it was indescribable. Her eyes were bloodshot, and it wasn't clear whether it was because she was too tired or because she had cried.
If Tang Li saw her like this, Tang Li would definitely go crazy.
Ning Jing was thrown at the door of the prison cell by the guards. She lay paralyzed on the ground, her sickly body seemingly unable to withstand a single blow. Once she fell, she couldn't stand up again.
She saw Su Xiaoyu, and Su Xiaoyu also saw her.
The two of them looked so pathetic and weak in each other's eyes, but they actually looked at each other and smiled.
Only those who were truly stubborn could be so brave and magnanimous as to smile at each other.
Su Xiaoyu was a little hesitant at first, but when she saw Ning Jing forcing a smile in her bloodshot eyes, her heart became even more determined!
He would either die or force Bai Yanqing to compromise!
"Brat, Old Man will give you one last chance. Are you going to tell me or not? " Bai Yanqing's patience was limited, especially after hearing from Su Xiaoyu that Han Yunxi was still looking for something after obtaining the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion. This made him even more impatient.
It should be known that the Water of Ten-Thousand Poisons in the Medicinal Forest had already fallen into the hands of Han Yunxi. There was no guarantee that she would find someone else!
He was very clear about the situation of Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi's Dual Cultivation, but he wasn't clear about the situation of Perplexing Butterfly Illusion at all.
The power of Lustbite could kill him, and Perplexing Butterfly Illusion could break his undying body. These two were what he feared the most! Yet both of them had fallen into the hands of Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye.
"Old thing, you don't understand human language, do you? I've already said everything clearly just now! If you don't understand human language, then I can't do anything about it! "Su Xiaoyu replied impatiently.
Bai Yanqing was unable to restrain his anger. He was simply angered to death.
"Someone come, pull out Ning Jing's teeth for me, pull them out one by one!" Bai Yanqing said angrily.
He had originally wanted to give Su Xiaoyu ten days, but now it seemed that if he didn't act ruthlessly, this brat really didn't know what was good for her and didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth!
Su Xiaoyu looked at Ning Jing indifferently.
Ning Jing was very calm. She wasn't afraid because of Bai Yanqing's words. Her daughter had already been rescued by Mu Ling'er. This was already the best result she could hope for.
Soon, two attendants held Ning Jing up on both sides. One of the attendants fiercely pinched her chin, forcing her to open her mouth. The other attendant brought over a pair of pliers, looking for the best place to start.
"Ning Jing, this brat doesn't know any better. Perhaps you can persuade her." Bai Yanqing sneered.
Ning Jing ignored him. She didn't struggle and directly closed her eyes.
"Old Man, pull out your front teeth first!" Bai Yanqing suddenly shouted angrily.
Although he was looking at Ning Jing, he glanced at Su Xiaoyu in the cell. He thought that Su Xiaoyu would also close her eyes, but who knew that Su Xiaoyu would actually open her eyes wide and stare at Ning Jing.
This was the first time that Bai Yanqing had felt this kind of frustration. He didn't want to believe that a little girl, a sickly woman, could have such strong willpower.
In this world, was there really someone who wasn't afraid of death?
The pliers clamped onto one of Ning Jing's front teeth. The attendant forcefully pulled and Ning Jing was in so much pain that her entire body trembled. She instinctively wanted to close her mouth. However, the attendant gripped her chin tightly, making her unable to move.
The attendant kept pulling and pulling and finally loosened the root of her teeth. It had to be said, even these attendants were scared witless and their hands were trembling.
Bai Yanqing was inhumanly cold blooded. He didn't look at Ning Jing and stared at Su Xiaoyu.
He didn't believe that he couldn't win against a little girl.
Finally, one of her teeth was pulled out. Ning Jing's mouth was already dripping with blood. Tears slowly flowed down from the corners of her tightly shut eyes. But she didn't struggle and didn't even make a sound.
Su Xiaoyu also didn't make a sound as she stared fixedly at Ning Jing.
No one knew that she secretly swore in her heart, if … if she and Ning Jing didn't die here today, then one day, she would definitely return everything that she had seen today to Bai Yanqing!
She must!
Waiting for no compromise, Bai Yanqing became even more furious. "Continue!"
Hence, the attendant pulled out Ning Jing's second tooth. Finally, at the moment when the tooth was pulled out, Ning Jing fainted from the pain!
The blood on her gums didn't stop flowing. And at this moment, the corners of Su Xiaoyu's mouth also slowly flowed with blood. She had bitten her own tongue.
Bai Yanqing didn't want to believe all of this. But the truth was right in front of his eyes.
He looked towards Su Xiaoyu and saw Su Xiaoyu sitting in the dark prison cell. The corners of her mouth were bleeding and her expression was cold. She was even scarier than the evil children of the evil cult in Nanzhao.
Bai Yanqing was stunned.
"Master, if you don't help them stop the bleeding, they will die." The attendant cautiously reminded.
Bai Yanqing finally regained his senses and realised that Su Xiaoyu was still threatening him!
Although Bai Yanqing didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that he couldn't do anything to Su Xiaoyu. If Su Xiaoyu died, he wouldn't be able to ask about the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion anymore.
"Bring the medicine!"
There was no doctor here so Bai Yanqing could only do it himself. He opened the door of the prison cell and wanted to first stop Su Xiaoyu's bleeding. But Su Xiaoyu actually turned her head away and refused to do so.
"Stinky girl, don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!" Bai Yanqing was so angry that he was about to go crazy.
Su Xiaoyu's mouth was tightly shut as blood continued to flow out from the corners of her mouth. Cold eyes stared at Bai Yanqing. That gaze wasn't just threatening, it was practically provoking!
Bai Yanqing had no choice but to first stop Ning Jing's bleeding. He ordered for two clean blankets to be brought over and placed the unconscious Ning Jing in the prison cell.
At this moment, Su Xiaoyu secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She opened her mouth and vomited out a mouthful of blood.
She was clearly about to faint but she still smiled at Bai Yanqing. Her smile was especially contemptuous.
Bai Yanqing clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles cracked. He couldn't wait to kill this stinky girl with one punch. But he had no choice but to stop her bleeding.
Bai Yanqing had never been so aggrieved in his life. A trace of viciousness flashed past his eyes. After Su Xiaoyu revealed the secret of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion, he would definitely teach her how to spell the word 'fear'!
Su Xiaoyu woke up before Ning Jing.
Although the wound on her tongue had stopped bleeding, it was so swollen and painful that it was difficult for her to even open her mouth, let alone speak.
She saw Ning Jing lying motionless under the blankets. Her body was so thin and frail that she could turn into ashes at any moment. She was scared out of her wits and hurriedly rushed over to grab Ning Jing's hand.
It was as if as long as she held onto Ning Jing, she wouldn't disappear.
Feeling the warmth of Ning Jing's hand, Su Xiaoyu heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't know what she would do if Ning Jing died just like that.
How much meaning would there be left in her stubbornness and perseverance?
After calming down, she hurriedly took Ning Jing's pulse. It was all thanks to the days she spent by her master's side and the time she spent assisting Gu Beiyue at Pill Fiend Pharmacy. Not only was she skilled in poison, she had also learned many medical skills.
After taking Ning Jing's pulse, Su Xiaoyu's small face sank.
Ning Jing's condition was quite bad. If she didn't quickly recover, she would definitely die if this continued! However, Su Xiaoyu couldn't be anxious.
If she was anxious, it would give Bai Yanqing the opportunity to threaten her again.
In a situation where both sides had equal bargaining chips, threats were a test of determination and determination.
Su Xiaoyu took Ning Jing's pulse again before sitting to the side. As she watched over her, she pondered about what medicinal herbs she should ask Bai Yanqing for and how to help Ning Jing's body recover in the shortest time possible.
When the guard discovered that Su Xiaoyu had woken up, he immediately went to report to Bai Yanqing. Bai Yanqing immediately rushed over.
"Stinky girl, Old Man has satisfied all your conditions. Now, shouldn't you tell me?" Bai Yanqing asked.
Su Xiaoyu immediately retorted, "How did you satisfy me? Where's the hot food? "
Bai Yanqing secretly took a deep breath and controlled his temper before ordering someone to bring hot food over.
"I don't need anything else. Just a bowl of hot millet porridge will do," Su Xiaoyu quickly said.
The attendant indeed brought over a bowl of hot millet porridge. Bai Yanqing wasn't in a hurry to ask as he watched Su Xiaoyu slowly finish eating the millet porridge.
At this point, he still had this bit of patience.
But who knew that after Su Xiaoyu finished eating the millet porridge, she didn't seem to have any intention of telling him about the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion. Instead, she sat cross-legged beside Ning Jing and leaned against the wall to rest.
"Stinky girl, do you really want to die?" Bai Yanqing asked Coldly.
"Old Uncle, you haven't fulfilled the conditions that I asked for. Why are you in such a hurry? "Su Xiaoyu said calmly.
"What else do you want? Don't push your luck! "Bai Yanqing said angrily.
"I don't want anything. I asked you to bring Ning Jing here, but you pulled out two of her teeth and turned her into this state. She's neither human nor ghost, and she's still unconscious! You should at least make me believe that she can still live, right? "Su Xiaoyu bargained with the gift of the gab.
Seeing that Bai Yanqing was staring at her without making a sound, Su Xiaoyu said Coldly, "Let's get to the point. I'll write a prescription for you to continuously supply me with medicine for half a month. Also, send me hot food for three meals a day. After half a month, if Ning Jing is still alive, I'll definitely tell you everything I know! "
The first time Bai Yanqing gave in, he was destined to be kidnapped by Su Xiaoyu. If he didn't agree, then all his previous concessions would have been wasted.
"Alright, half a month!" He said ruthlessly, "Stinky girl, you have to know that there's a phrase in this world called 'living a life worse than death'!"
