Chapter 233: Chapter 233: Bloodletting

Yue Rujing shook her head gently and said, "Although Youying Grass is rare, it is not difficult for us to find. However... ordinary people cannot directly take Youying Grass to detoxify, it needs to be used in combination with the Youying Pearl."

What a hassle!

"So you actually don’t have the Youying Pearl? You’ve been searching for so many years and haven’t found it. Surely it’s too late to start looking now. Just say it, what do we do now?"

"Now? If you want him to wake up as soon as possible, only you can save him."

"Me...?" Gu Youyou recalled the scene where Jin Zijin’s body was burning up, and she almost lost control. Her face suddenly heated up.

Get naked and sleep with him? But why? That’s so unscientific?

"Do I really have to do that?" Gu Youyou asked Yue Rujing tentatively.

Yue Rujing nodded affirmatively and said, "Indeed, otherwise, my senior brother will not last three days."

"Then fine, it’s not the first time anyway."

Gu Youyou began to undress, but then she saw Yue Rujing, a grown man, still standing there. She frowned and said, "You don’t need to stay, do you? I’ll call you when he wakes up."

"You..." Yue Rujing saw her intention and coughed awkwardly, saying, "You might be misunderstanding me. In the past, that method might have worked, but now we need to do something different."

"Huh...?" Confusion crossed Gu Youyou’s face, followed by a wave of embarrassment. She glared at him, the instigator of the misunderstanding, and said, "Then say it all at once, will you?"

Buttoning her clothes back up, Yue Rujing had already strode over to them.

Without saying another word, he grabbed Gu Youyou’s arm, revealed a small knife, and whispered, "My apologies, but endure it a little!"

"Hey, ah..."

Yue Rujing’s movement was swift and fluid, giving Gu Youyou no time to react. He just grabbed her arm, made a cut to draw blood, and let it flow.

"Yue Rujing, couldn’t you... explain things first, to prepare me?"

That was a blood vessel he cut, and Gu Youyou watched her blood flow out like water, filling a large bowl in no time.

With her frail body, this amount of blood was already the limit. Plus, the knife wound in her abdomen also caused a lot of blood loss. After one bowl, she began to feel dizzy.

"How... much more?" Gu Youyou asked weakly.

Continuing like this could kill a person.

Yue Rujing’s face darkened, his expression ominous as he coldly spat out two words, "Not enough!"

When one bowl was filled, he took out another.

Gu Youyou felt she was losing not just blood, but her life as well.

Her lips parted slightly, lacking even the strength to argue or curse, she could only watch the bright red fluid carrying her life away, drop by drop.

Time was so short, yet so painfully long.

Continuing like this, she was certain to die.

In her delirium, it felt as brief as a moment, yet as lengthy as a century.

She didn’t know how much blood she had lost, didn’t know when she had drifted into a deep sleep, nor when she saw a beam of light in that darkness...

Gu Youyou, like a trapped beast, was confined in the void of darkness, where the distant light was so bright, so desirable, yet so out of reach.

"Youyou, come here, quickly..." The voice was calling her soul from afar, now closer, now distant.

The voice was coming from the light, yet it was too far away for her to grasp.

So, she chased the voice, desperately running towards that glimmer of light.

"Youyou, keep it up, you have always been the best!"
