Yuan Zeng’s expression was also ugly. He didn’t expect that all his arrangements would be empty, and he now doubted whether Liao Tingyan really betrayed him.

“She is really bold. She didn’t respond to my call before, and she didn’t even send a bit of news. Now she is disregarding my letter. I must teach her a lesson!” The gray-robed man was angry.

Yuan Zeng had a calm face, and there were three bells in his hand. He shook this string of bells for a long time, but still didn’t see anyone coming. So he snorted and smashed one of the bells directly.

This string of bells was the companion of Liao Tingyan. The bone-eroding poison in her body was actually a kind of evil technique. There weren’t many people in the Demon Realm, and they often smuggled many children back to the Demon Realm from this world and cultivated them since childhood. These people were arranged as spies of various schools in the cultivation world. The most important thing was loyalty. So they planted this kind of special demoic technique in their bodies since childhood, and the bell was the carrier. After many years, it became a companion to them. With this bell, life and death were in the hands of others, and it was very difficult to completely remove this technique.

Usually being planted with this bone-eroding poison, one would never betray the Demon Realm and the master, but now this Liao Tingyan didn’t even know that she was still a Demon Realm spy.

When the bell rang, Liao Tingyan, who was sleeping, was also awakened by the pain. She was lying on the bed alone, touching her aching belly.

What the hell was preventing her from sleeping? The ancestor didn’t come but how could her stomach hurt? She got up and went to the toilet and found that it wasn’t her aunt.

It was the same as last time. Liao Tingyan remembered that when she lived in the Three Saints mountain before, she had this kind of situation.

She was in so much pain that time that she vomited blood and fainted, thinking she was going to die. But when she woke up, she was shocked to see Sima Jiao. She thought about it. It must be Sima Jiao who saved her. She guessed that there was something wrong with this body.

Now it started to hurt again. She was uncomfortable with pain. Liao Tingyan still got up and carried the lamp to go to Sima Jiao. She couldn’t bear the pain the most, so she changed her usual salted fish behavior style and took the initiative to find the Murderer Master.

There were glazed lanterns floating everywhere in Baili Mountain. She walked out of her side hall, dressed in an outer garment, and looked like a white lotus who had passed by in the middle of the night.

She arched, bent over, and came to the main hall of Sima Jiao with a frustrated face. She opened the heavy door, walked in, and whispered, “Shizu?”

“Shizu?”

“Hiss–” The big black snake curled up on the pillar swam down.

Liao Tingyan’s face turned pale with pain and asked, “Where is our boss? I’m hurting to death.”

The big black snake tilted his head and led her to the place where Sima Jiao was, but this guy was afraid to enter at the door. In fact, Liao Tingyan didn’t dare too, but her stomach was still aching a lot. She could only push the door open and poke a head in.

The air in this hall was extremely cold, and there was a layer of cold white mist on the ground. As soon as the door was opened, Liao Tingyan was trembling with the cold. There were two glazed lamps in the room, but they weren’t very bright across the curtain. She saw a pool inside with a vague black figure in the pool.

She remembered that she had encountered a similar scene in the central tower. At that time, it was also the big black snake who took her to Sima Jiao’s private territory and she saw him soaking in the pool.

Did he like to sleep in this kind of cold water? It didn’t seem like a wise move for her to come and disturb him.

Liao Tingyan hesitated and walked in, clutching her stomach. Every time she took a step forward, she felt that she was stepping on a landmine. She didn’t know if it would explode in the next step. She walked to the pool with her heart in her arms. She put the glass lantern in her hand aside and squatted on the pool to see Sima Jiao. The person had his eyes closed and was expressionless in the water, without any reaction to her arrival.

Just as Liao Tingyan was about to open her mouth to call him, she heard a crisp sound in her head, which seemed to be a cracking bell, and she turned around and fell forward into the pool. She was robbed of all senses by the severe pain almost instantly, and she vomited a big mouthful of blood in the pool.

It was like the organs in her body were crushed. She was in so much pain but she didn’t lose her consciousness. She was in a situation where she could clearly perceive everything outside and the pain inside the body.

The moment Liao Tingyan plunged into the pool, Sima Jiao opened his eyes. He stretched his hand forward, hugged the sinking Liao Tingyan, and led her to stand up from the pool.
