Chapter 69: Demonic Energy

“How… how did this happen?” Mr. Li was a little annoyed to see Kong Rui injured.

He had originally wanted to give her a gift that wasn’t worth much. This box had been in a corner for many days, and he had forgotten where he had obtained it. Seeing that it looked quite dirty, he gave it to Li Ling without any hesitation.

Who would have thought that the lotus flower carvings would have such a sharp edge under this thick mud?

...

Kong Rui looked at the wound on her hand that was bleeding. She couldn’t help but frown.

Fortunately, when she came out of the Demon Abyss, Kong Niang had already used a potion to resolve the demonic energy in her blood.

Otherwise, she would probably be exposed now!

Chao Bai’s eyes widened when he saw that Kong Rui was injured.

Seeing that he was angry, Mr. Li knew that it was probably not the right time to befriend him today!

Mr. Li looked around and said, “It’s getting late. I still have something to talk to the Patriarch about. Rest early!”

With that, Mr. Li turned around and ran out of the courtyard before Kong Rui could react.

Mr. Li fled like a child who had done something wrong. Mr. Li didn’t want to take responsibility, so he could only choose to escape.

Kong Rui looked at the small but deep wound on her hand and frowned.

She could feel some slight pain.

Chao Bai grabbed Kong Rui’s hand and examined it carefully. “Are you alright? Does it hurt?”

Kong Rui shook her head. She didn’t take the wound to heart.

Back then, she could endure the bone-chilling pain when her phoenix essence was sucked out, the whipping on her body, and the pain of her flesh being bitten by spirit beasts. This wound… was nothing to her.

Seeing that Kong Rui seemed to be fine, Chao Bai turned his attention to the wooden box at the side.

He picked up the wooden box and was about to throw it to the ground.

Seeing this, Kong Rui immediately went forward and snatched the wooden box.

Although she didn’t like this gift much, the carving on the wooden box attracted her attention. She wanted to see what it was.

After snatching the wooden box back, Kong Rui heard something colliding inside.

She opened the wooden box and saw two pills, one black and one white. She didn’t know what effect they had.

From the looks of it, Mr. Li probably didn’t know either.

Kong Rui was about to close the box when a ball of faint purple smoke suddenly rose from the black pill.

The smoke was very weak and floated in the air, extending towards the wound on Kong Rui’s hand.

As if attracted by something in the wound, the smoke kept rising and entering the wound.

Kong Rui felt an indescribable refreshing feeling coming from the wound and spreading to every corner of her body.

“What is this?” Kong Rui closed her eyes in disbelief. She felt the smoke moving in her body. The unprecedented sense of pleasure almost made Kong Rui cry out.

Something in her body seemed to be clamoring to rush out.

When he saw Kong Rui’s reaction, Chao Bai’s expression changed. He reached out and closed the wooden box.

The smoke stopped, and Kong Rui trembled. When she opened her eyes again, a purple halo flashed in her eyes.

“What’s going on?” Kong Rui blinked and looked at the solemn-looking Chao Bai.

“It’s demonic energy.” Chao Bai stared at the wooden box in Kong Rui’s hand and said warily.

“Demonic energy? Are you saying that demonic energy just entered my body?” Kong Rui was immediately shocked.

“Impossible! I’ve been in the Demon Abyss for so long, so my body has already been permeated with demonic energy. It’s definitely not the same feeling as before!” Kong Rui said firmly.

Chao Bai’s expression was solemn, but he didn’t answer Kong Rui’s question.

Kong Rui looked at the wound again. At this moment, the wound had already disappeared, and the pain from before had also disappeared.

She held the wooden box and carefully wiped the dirt off it to see the original appearance of the carving.

“What are you doing?” Chao Bai was already on guard against this wooden box. He didn’t want Kong Rui to come into contact with it again.

“I think this lotus flower is a little strange. Look here,” Kong Rui said as she handed the lotus flower to Chao Bai.
