The wicked woman, with her supple waist and incredible escape abilities, was chased madly by her fiv

Chapter 68 Su An'an Goes Blind

A den of decay, a hidden cave.

The outer shell of the AI, which had been glowing pink, was now corroded with blackened pits by purple slime and was emitting wisps of smoke.

Su An'an kept raising her hand to rub her eyes, but all she could see was a thick, inky darkness.

She staggered and clung to the rock face, her fingernails digging deep into the damp moss, a metallic taste rising in her throat.

It was from panting that he bit his tongue.

"No...it's impossible..."

She muttered to herself, frantically turning her neck, trying to catch even the slightest glimmer of light.

The sound of the wind brushing her hair past her ears made her tremble all over.

A sharp, piercing pain suddenly arose from the depths of his consciousness.

It felt like countless silver needles piercing the brain.

She knelt on the ground, clutching her head tightly with both hands, her knuckles turning white from the force.

The toxins, like living creatures, were freely moving along her nerve pathways, their cold tentacles wrapping around her limbs.

When the uncontrolled right foot steps out first.

She let out a desperate sob: "Stop...stop..."

The putrid mist filled my nasal cavity.

Su An'an felt her body being pulled away by some kind of force.

She struggled to brace herself with her knees, her fingernails scraping against the rocks with a harsh sound, but her consciousness was gradually fading.

Suddenly, a bone-chilling coldness shot up my spine to the back of my neck.

A cold, rusty hand covered me without warning.

Su An'an's blood froze instantly, and a piercing scream erupted from her throat: "Don't touch me!"

"it's me."

Ye Yuan's hoarse voice was mixed with panting as his right arm clamped around her struggling waist like an iron clamp.

His severed left arm was bleeding profusely.

But he paid no heed, burying his face in Su An'an's hair, his Adam's apple bobbing gently behind her ear:

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Ye Yuan's blood-stained black hair brushed against the tip of her nose.

Su An'an suddenly caught a whiff of a familiar datura fragrance, but it was instantly masked by the stench of decay.

"How can you prove you are Ye Yuan?"

She staggered backward, her lower back slamming against the jagged rocks.

In the darkness, the serpent's eyes glowed with a scarlet light, like two clusters of inextinguishable phosphorescent flames.

He suddenly laughed, a laugh tinged with self-mockery and bitterness.

As the canine tooth pierced her wrist, drops of blood splattered onto her pale lips: "My blood, my flesh, were born to be your sacrifice."

The moment the fragrance of datura flowers bursts forth.

The snake fangs and tentacles in Su An'an's sea of ​​consciousness trembled violently.

It really is Ye Yuan!
Like a child who has found a refuge, she burst into tears and threw herself into his arms, only to find his left sleeve empty.

"your hands?"

She reached out to search, but Ye Yuan caught her trembling fingertips in his mouth.

As the canine teeth brushed against her skin, warm breath sprayed onto her wrist.
"It saves you the trouble of using a knife, and tearing meat with fangs is much more satisfying."

He released Su An'an's hand.

He turned his head and bit the blood-stained strip of cloth, while his right hand tightly wrapped around the wound.

Cold sweat dripped from her forehead onto the back of her hand, burning her hand intensely.

"I hurt you..."

Su An'an's scalding tears soaked his clothes, and her fingernails dug deeply into the old scars on his back.

Ye Yuan knelt down on one knee, cupped her face in his hands, and used his tongue to wipe away the tears from her eyelashes.

The snake's eyes reflected the eerie light of the cave:
"Don't cry, tell me, what's wrong with your eyes?"

"The shadow has taken over my mind; it is controlling me."

Su An'an's hands and feet suddenly convulsed violently.

Ye Yuan immediately pulled her into his arms, pressing his good hand against her convulsing knees, his chin resting on the top of her head:
"Don't be afraid. From now on, I will be your eyes, your ears, and your limbs."

"Even if we have to crawl, I'll crawl you out."

Su An'an subconsciously reached out and touched his chest.

The moment my fingertip touched the crisscrossing protrusions beneath the fabric, it trembled violently as if burned by fire.

The layers upon layers of scars, each one covered in dried bloodstains, traced a breathtaking pattern on her fingertips.

Before she could even count them all, Ye Yuan had already grasped her wrist and pressed it against his violently heaving chest: "Don't count anymore, there are twenty-seven in total, all old wounds."

"I've dragged you down."

A lump rose in her throat. "There are mutated beasts everywhere here. You are all alone, without supplies, without reinforcements, and you have me, a blind and crippled burden, with you."

Before she could finish speaking, she quickly turned her head away, afraid that her tears would wet his clothes.

Ye Yuan suddenly chuckled: "Do you know how the underground black market treats half-snake descendants?"

His gaze pierced through the night, as if returning to a distant past.
Inside the cold, damp iron cage of the black market.

The boy, a serpentine beast, had his black tail pierced by an iron hook and was hoisted up, while onlookers cheered as he was torn apart by a pack of wolves.

As he bit through the throat of the last wolf, the slave owner grinned and poured salt water over it.

Bastards deserve to have their tendons and bones broken!

"They stripped my scales seven times."

Ye Yuan calmly tightened his embrace around the trembling Su An'an, letting her tears soak through his collarbone.
"But that's precisely why..."

He suddenly guided her hand to the back of his neck, where a sensitive spot was vibrating intensely.
"Only then can I sense the heartbeat of every living thing within a hundred meters."

Su An'an sobbed uncontrollably: "Don't talk like that, as if you deserved to suffer those pains!"

She groped her way to his cold cheek, her fingertips tracing the raised scar:

"You didn't live to suffer."

"Adversity makes me stronger!"

Ye Yuan's dark red vertical pupils gleamed with a fanatical light, and the scent of mandrake grew stronger with each breath.

"Otherwise, how could I be qualified to be your beastly husband?"

Ye Yuan cupped the back of her head with his palm and gently pressed her against the rock wall.

His fingertips unconsciously caressed the pebbles stuck in her hair.

The dappled moonlight filtered through the cracks in the rock wall, gilding the overlapping shadows of the two figures with a silvery edge.

His kiss was domineering and irresistible, yet he carefully avoided her injured eye.

"Besides... this time you're by my side."

Night Abyss whispered as it brushed against her earlobe.

Su An'an felt ripples spreading through her sea of ​​consciousness.

The unease and fear receded like the tide, leaving only an overflowing sense of peace and excitement.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the snake's fangs and tentacles suddenly erupted with intense light.

Like a lighthouse in the darkness, it conveyed important information to Su An'an.

“There is a rebel base in the northeast.”

Su An'an excitedly grabbed Ye Yuan's arm.

If we can find the rebels' base, we might find the antidote and escape the threat of the shadow in our mind's eye.

"very good."

Ye Yuan patted her hair approvingly.

Then, he tore open his combat uniform and wrapped the strip of cloth around Su An'an's waist with one hand, his movements as swift as binding prey.

However, a two-finger-width gap was deliberately left when fastening the knot.

"pay close attention."

He supported Su An'an by the knees, suddenly hoisted her onto his back, and quickly ran towards the northeast.

Su An'an lay on Ye Yuan's broad back.

The shadows deep within my consciousness are spreading wildly along my nerve pathways.

Each beat brings excruciating pain.

She bit her lower lip hard, the taste of blood spreading in her mouth.

Under no circumstances can Ye Yuan discover that he is already carrying too much burden.

She didn't want to be the last straw that broke him.

Three days!

An antidote must be found within three days.

Otherwise, the warmth of Ye Yuan's back would become their final tenderness before their eternal farewell.

Big Cat is of noble birth, straightforward and adorable; Su An'an and Big Cat are as sweet as first love.

Poison Dragon was born into poverty, and his suffering and hardship shaped him. His love with An An was made all the more profound by their shared pain.

The current minor hardships are all for the sake of the great satisfaction later.

Keep going and keep chasing!
