Chapter 2059: Playing Dead

Those toxins had reached Qingfeng Li’s heart and were spreading in every direction of his body.

Qingfeng Li kept trembling and convulsing. Green lines crawled over his face, making him look like a plant.

At the next moment, Qingfeng Li collapsed on the ground.

The poison of the Green Toxic Dagger was too powerful. Qingfeng Li had reached the Saint Realm, including his skin, blood, flesh, muscles, and organs.

Not only had his body reached the saint level, his spirit energy had also gotten into Saint Realm. But even so, he was still poisoned and fell heavily on the ground.

Green veins appeared all over his body. These were from Saint-level toxin, which made him keep trembling, with foam appearing in his mouth; he seemed like he was about to die.

The surrounding self-cultivators were all shocked by this scene and stepped back, getting away from Qingfeng Li, for fear of being infected and killed by the poison.

The saint-level toxin was too powerful; all the self-cultivators were frightened and stunned.

Seeing Qingfeng Li lying on the ground still, Ruyan Liu’s pale face revealed her pain. She had just met Qingfeng Li after longing for him all this time, but before she got the time to talk with him, he had died for her.

She felt stung in her heart, and tears fell out of control from her eyes.

Their love ought to have lasted forever, but it had come and gone before she realized.

Ruyan Liu lost all the hope. She had been thinking of Qingfeng Li ever since she was brought to Crimson Fire Continent by the Crimson Fire Monarch. Her biggest wish was to meet Qingfeng Li again, but she didn’t expect they would be parted by his death.

Ruyan Liu hated herself at this moment, for being this vulnerable and powerless. If she could be powerful enough to reach Saint Realm, she wouldn’t have become the burden of Qingfeng Li and caused him to die.

Ruyan Liu swore to herself that if she could survive this time, she would practice hard to reach the Saint Realm and then kill all her enemies to avenge Qingfeng Li.

Ruyan Liu wept, with her tears dropping; even their daughter felt her father’s death and started to cry out.

Hongmei Chi laughed and said, “Qingfeng Li, you’re finally killed by my poison. It’s wonderful. I’ll tear off your skin now and make it into a taxidermy.”

Seeing Qingfeng Li covered with the toxin, Hongmei Chi showed a cruel excitement.

She put down the dagger at Ruyan Liu’s neck then walked toward Qingfeng Li.

Although the others were all afraid of the Saint-level toxin on Qingfeng Li, Hongmei Chi didn’t fear. It was her poison, and she had the antidote to resist it.

Qignfeng Li was also scared at first when he was poisoned, feeling that he would die here.

But at the next moment, his Yin-Yang spirit nucleus shot out two beams of light. One was the light of Yin; the other was the light of Yang.

The light of Yin and Yang stood for the earth and the sky, black and the white, the dark and the bright. They formed strong power and directly began cleansing the green toxins from his body.

Feeling this situation, Qingfeng Li showed a touch of delight. He had only cleansed the toxin in his heart and left the other parts unhealed.

He was deliberately playing dead to let Hongmei Chi drop her guard down, tricking her to let Ruyan Liu off and come to check his “dead” body.

Qingfeng Li knew he could attack and finish Hongmei Chi off when she got close, and then he could save Ruyan Liu and their daughter.

Qingfeng Li sent out his spirit energy and monitored Hongmei Chi. He became delighted when he felt Hongmei Chi had removed the dagger from Ruyan Liu’s neck. He knew his plan worked.

But Hongmei Chi hadn’t moved toward him. He was still waiting, waiting for Hongmei Chi to come close.

As expected, at the next moment, Hongmei Chi let off Ruyan Liu, bringing her dagger toward Qingfeng Li, and walked close to him shortly after.

Hongmei Chi looked down on Qingfeng Li and her face showed a touch of cruelty, as she said, “I’ll cut your skin off with this dagger now; I won’t give you a peaceful death.”

Hongmei Chi wielded the dagger in her hand and stabbed it toward Qingfeng Li’s head. She wanted to skin him, starting from his head.

Qingfeng Li showed a cold look and suddenly operated his Yin-Yang spirit nucleus, shooting out a black and a white light, and instantly cleansed all the Saint-level toxins inside him.

Then he reached out his right index and middle fingers and immediately grasped Hongmei Chi’s dagger.

Hongmei Chi was shocked, saying,” You’re not dead?”

Qingfeng Li smiled slightly and said with contempt,” Your toxin is too weak. How can it poison me to death?”

Hongmei Chi was stunned by Qingfeng Li’s words. Her poison was a saint-level toxin, which was super powerful. How could it be ‘weak’ to Qingfeng Li?

But Hongmei Chi understood that Qingfeng Li would become a big threat to her if he regained consciousness.

Hongmei Chi wielded the dagger and tried to draw it out. But Qingfeng Li clamped it too tightly for her to pull it out.

Qingfeng Li smirked and showed his murderous intent. He put some strength in his fingers and directly broke the dagger with a crack sound.

Then he reached out his hand like a claw, clutching Hongmei Chi’s throat and lifting her up.

Qingfeng Li had intended to break Hongmei Chi’s neck and kill her directly. But then he felt it would be too easy for her. He needed to torture this woman first.

Qingfeng Li held Hongmei Chi’s left index finger, then broke it off with a crack sound.

The nerves of one’s fingers were linked with one’s heart. The pain of breaking an index finger was unbearable. Hongmei Chi opened her mouth and screamed painfully. The miserable scream spread all over the Fire Monarch Mountain.

Numerous self-cultivators had heard this scream and looked over. They were all shocked when they saw Qingfeng Li had captured Hongmei Chi.

In their memory, Hongmei Chi was the daughter of the Crimson Fire Monarch, with a noble identity and powerful strength. How could she be captured and tortured by Qingfeng Li?
