Chapter 894 — Sister Yaoyao Is So Awesome

Wei Zhao's leg wound — Gu Mengyao did not dare cut it too wide; she felt that only her mouth could draw the bullet out, and with it suck out the poisoned blood around the wound and spit it away.

At that moment, Gu Mengyao never once considered whether such a thing was improper. She had already sensed that Wei Zhao's voice was growing weaker with every word; seeing it wrung her heart with anxiety, and what room was left in her for any other concern?

Soon she had the bullet out, which came as a relief to Gu Mengyao. She spat the bullet away, then helped Wei Zhao *** the poisoned blood from the wound...

Shen Yushu and General Weiwu fetched the stream water and, not daring to delay, rushed back at top speed. But the moment they entered the cave, they were greeted by a sight that left Shen Yushu dumbstruck!

"Holy crap, Sister Yaoyao, you're so awesome! You're helping Brother Arrow-Brand..." Shen Yushu cried out in astonishment. "You want to give yourself to him right now? But you can't! Brother Arrow-Brand is hurt, he's really weak. Stop it, quick — wait till he's healed!"

Nor was Shen Yushu's imagination running away with her. Gu Mengyao had her back to the cave mouth, her head buried between Wei Zhao's legs, and Wei Zhao was not wearing pants — a scene like that could hardly avoid being misread.

At first Gu Mengyao did not catch her meaning, but at Shen Yushu's next words she understood all at once... and nearly choked to death on Wei Zhao's poisoned blood. She scrambled up, spat the blood from her mouth, and glared at Shen Yushu. "Xiaoshu, what nonsense are you spouting? I'm sucking the poison out of Wei Zhao!"

"Huh?" Shen Yushu blinked. Seeing that Brother Arrow-Brand was perfectly fine and still wearing ***, she realized she had misunderstood, and felt rather sheepish. "Oh, I see... hehe... Sister Yaoyao, here's the water, I brought it..."

Gu Mengyao shot her a glare, but then she thought of how she must have looked just now — far too suggestive — and could only shake her head with a wry smile. Thank goodness it was only Xiaoshu who saw; anyone else would surely have misunderstood and quietly slipped away...

Gu Mengyao helped Wei Zhao clean the wound, then got to her feet. She had no heart to squabble with Xiaoshu over what had just happened, and instead asked urgently, "Do you have any gauze we can bandage it with?"

"No..." Shen Yushu rummaged through her schoolbag for a long while, then said in a small voice, "Would a sanitary pad work?"

"..." Gu Mengyao did not know what to say. "That's for absorbing blood, isn't it? I don't think it'll work?"

"Then I don't think there's anything else..." Shen Yushu said, surprised. "But Brother Arrow-Brand's wound doesn't seem to be bleeding much anymore?"

Gu Mengyao turned to look, and sure enough, the wound on Wei Zhao's leg had stopped bleeding. She breathed a sigh of relief. "Then let's stick a sanitary pad on it as a stopgap. We'll carry him down the mountain!"

Wei Zhao's body had been steeped in all manner of medicines since childhood, so his powers of self-repair were quite good; stopping the bleeding was a trifle.

While Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu were talking, Wei Zhao finally could not hold on any longer and slipped into a haze of unconsciousness. He was simply too tired — his strength had been utterly overdrawn!

The next moment, Wei Zhao entered the jade pendant space. This was the one thing he had to be thankful for — that he could still enter the jade pendant space. Earlier, he had feared that once he passed out from so deep a poisoning, he would lose his connection with the jade pendant space for good!

"Phew—" Wei Zhao inwardly counted himself lucky. Catching sight of Elder Jiao in the jade pendant space, he grinned. "Never thought I'd see you again!"

"Never thought, indeed I never thought it. I was sure you were dead this time, no doubt about it." Elder Jiao nodded, thoroughly convinced. "But I never imagined a kid like you would come up with such a crazy move. You're an absolute madman! Utterly insane. Do you realize that if you had retreated one step later, you would have been smashed to powder? Do you think you can take a blast better than Ma Zhu, who's trained the Golden Bell Shield?"

"That..." Wei Zhao smiled bitterly, somewhat embarrassed. "At the time I couldn't afford to worry about so much, could I? How could I have thought about consequences? What I thought was, if I could take Ma Zhu down with me, that'd be good enough! By the way, Elder Jiao, why didn't you warn me?"

"What good would my warning have done you? You'd already stopped caring about anything else — could you have cared about my warning?" Elder Jiao shook his head. "Still, I truly never expected you to develop such a use for energy — an energy bomb. Truly vicious. That one blast was no less powerful than the explosives you used to blow up the Qibing Building!"

"Heh... At school, my physics teacher used to say one thing over and over: when you're out of options, think of energy. And so I thought of energy..." What Wei Zhao meant was a method for solving physics problems.

For some time now, Wei Zhao had often sat in on classes at school. When solving physics problems, the phrase his physics teacher repeated most was "when you're out of options, think of energy," and Wei Zhao had remembered it. He had never imagined it would become a crucial means of saving his life!

"..." Jiao Yazi was somewhat speechless. "You can call it luck, but I have to say, you've created a trump card — one that lets you defeat an opponent above your level. Its usefulness, though, is not so great."

"Oh?" Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback, then nodded, understanding what Jiao Yazi meant. The energy bomb was boundless in power, but using it did tremendous harm to himself. If it blew the opponent straight to death, well and good; but if it did not, and the opponent still had the strength to strike back, then Wei Zhao himself would be in grave danger!

The energy bomb would drain every last drop of energy from his body. Once unleashed, his life and fortune were all staked on that single move — it was dangerous in the extreme! Thus this move could only be used when there was no other way.

Just as today: though Ma Zhu had been blasted into critical condition, he still had the strength to strike at Wei Zhao. If he had not been scared witless by Wei Zhao at the time and had kept attacking, then Wei Zhao would likely have met his end right there today!

Except that Wei Zhao had still been able to stand, and though he looked a sorry sight, there were no signs of grave injury — which left Ma Zhu stunned and terrified, afraid that Wei Zhao might unleash another such sure-kill move, in which case he would truly be reduced to ashes!

"Indeed, this move can't be used at will. Otherwise, it really is dangerous!" Wei Zhao nodded.

"All right, have a look at your own injuries now," Jiao Yazi said to Wei Zhao.

Wei Zhao sat cross-legged and silently began to circulate the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art. His body desperately needed to replenish its energy!

The energy within the jade pendant space surged into Wei Zhao's body at flying speed. That feeling of being filled with energy was truly wonderful! Wei Zhao could not help but give a *** groan of delight, savoring the infusion of energy!

But the very next moment, an expression of utter shock appeared on Wei Zhao's face!
