Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl-Chapter 872 - : Return My Innocence!
Chapter 872: Chapter 872: Return My Innocence!
Jiang Xiaobai hit the nail on the head.
Qiongyu nodded, “Indeed, it’s incomplete. I only stood by that dry well for a while and was affected like this.”
“I had always felt that if I could enter that dry well, perhaps all troubles could be solved.”
“But I have already violated the taboo, naively thinking that as long as I didn’t mention it again, the elven race would not drive me away.”
“Even if they treated me as a marginal figure, as a freak, it would be fine.”
“Unfortunately…”
Qiongyu spoke without a trace of expression on her face, her voice was chilly.
Just like a robot.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t have much to say about this, but now it seemed that the key might lie within the dry well.
Using dan medicine to suppress such power was not a long-term solution after all.
As time passed, the efficacy of the suppression would weaken.
On the contrary, at a certain moment in the end, it might stimulate the power to burst forth completely, absorbing Qiongyu entirely as nourishment!
Several alchemical formulas instantly came to Jiang Xiaobai’s mind, which could be better than the one he had in hand.
“Your situation is quite serious; we can’t keep dragging it out. Once I find Chen Yulu, we’ll head to the elven race and uncover the secrets beneath that dry well!”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled lightly, already starting to select materials from his storage space.
However, Jiang Xiaobai always kept very little in terms of spiritual herbs, and this time alchemy required several ingredients he didn’t have at hand.
Afterward, Jiang Xiaobai took out the pawnshop token.
There was naturally a pawnshop branch in the Wood Spirit World, and they confirmed that the items would be delivered soon. JiangXiongbai also inquired about Chen Yulu’s whereabouts, and about that coastline under the night sky.
However, he received no answer.
Soon, a man dressed in black appeared in the tavern, handing a storage ring and a piece of jade slip to Jiang Xiaobai.
“Everything you want to know is in there.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, and as he saw the man about to leave, he hurriedly stopped him, “Wait, there’s another question. Do you guys at the pawnshop have any more information about ZiLong and YuJie?”
The man in black fell silent for a moment.
“It’s to your benefit, handle it as you see fit.”
After saying this, he directly flashed away, not giving Jiang Xiaobai the chance to ask further.
What a joke, their pawnshop always made customers pay a price for their services, so why the hell did they treat Jiang Xiaobai like one of their own?
The White Crane had also emphasized that they should not divulge anything unnecessary, or their pawnshop would suffer a huge loss!
Once the man left, Jiang Xiaobai immediately checked the jade slip and found out that Chen Yulu was actually in Yuheng City as well.
About the coastline under the night, the information was scarce; all Jiang Xiaobai knew was that he had to search for a place called Yushui Village in the Fire Spirit Realm.
“Strange, does the pawnshop really not know about that place, or did they deliberately only give me half the information?”
“What is that place for, and what secrets does it hold, why are they unwilling to talk?”
Jiang Xiaobai was indignant.
He guessed that certainly the White Crane had interfered behind the scenes.
How infuriating!
“Forget it, first to concoct the medicine.”
Alchemy for Jiang Xiaobai was like eating and drinking; with the augmentation of the ‘San Cheng Lao Jun Alchemy Technique,’ most medicines could be refined to perfection.
Soon, the medicine was ready, and Jiang Xiaobai rushed off, eager to find Qiongyu.
But instead, he saw a woman walking into the tavern.
Upon meeting, both were surprised.
“Chen Yulu, what are you doing here? I was just thinking of looking for you!” Jiang Xiaobai chuckled.
Chen Yulu seemed to be just as surprised to see Jiang Xiaobai, with a look of astonishment on her face.
“I was also thinking of looking for you.”
“Did you know I was here?”
“Yes, I found out from the pawnshop.”
Chen Yulu, that charming woman, blinked her eyes, her smile teasing, “I didn’t realize how mysterious your identity is, Jiang Xiaobai. I went to the pawnshop to inquire about your whereabouts, and they wouldn’t tell me.”
“If it wasn’t for me saying that I wouldn’t take responsibility, they wouldn’t even admit it.”
Qiongyu had just pushed the door open and come out, and she happened to hear this sentence.
She blushed slightly, unable to hide her emotions on the surface.
“Carry on, I didn’t hear anything.”
With that, the door closed again.
Jiang Xiaobai stood there, dumbfounded.
“Hey, Chen Yulu, what are you causing trouble for? Explain yourself, return my innocence!”
Jiang Xiaobai shouted frantically, thinking that it was too late, the misunderstanding was too big!
Chen Yulu, however, was smiling slyly as she reached out to Jiang Xiaobai. “Where’s the item?”
“First return my innocence!”
“Give me the item and then I’ll return it. After all, with a big shot like you, what if you tricked me? Who would I reason with then?”
“Damn it, am I that kind of person?”
Chen Yulu looked Jiang Xiaobai up and down and then nodded seriously: “You definitely are!”
For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai was truly at a loss for words.
He tossed out a storage ring containing Tianyu Xuan stone. “Here’s the item, now, clear my good name!”
“Giggle, we’re all adults here, why care about these things?”
After getting the item, this woman even dared to play dumb.
This time, Jiang Xiaobai was genuinely enraged, grinding his teeth and clenching his fists.
At this point, Qiongyu opened the door again. “Alright, come in and talk. Aren’t you embarrassed to have this conversation outside?”
Only then did Jiang Xiaobai, his face flushed, walk into Qiongyu’s room.
As soon as he entered, he frowned deeply.
The room was filled with a strange scent.
Very familiar.
“Is that the energy from inside you?” Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow. “Has it begun to leak out already?”
Qiongyu nodded calmly: “It’s starting to get a bit uncontrollable, so that’s why I needed you to make alchemy pills. Taking the pill when it starts acting up is the best.”
The implication was clear: you’ve dragged your feet long enough!
Suddenly, Jiang Xiaobai started to feel guilty.
He really hadn’t known about this.
He quickly took out the alchemy pill and handed it to Qiongyu: “Hurry and eat it. That forbidden power inside you is too terrifying. If you can’t control it, it could kill you.”
After taking the pill, Qiongyu’s pale complexion started to gain a little rosiness.
She gave Jiang Xiaobai a glance, expressing gratitude.
Then Jiang Xiaobai cleared his throat: “About earlier, what you heard was all a misunderstanding, I’m not that kind of person.”
“Of course not, Jiang Xiaobai, how could you be like that, it’s all my wishful thinking,” Qiongyu added.
Chen Yulu also started explaining on the side.
Jiang Xiaobai got anxious: “You better stop talking, aren’t your explanations hurting me more?”
“Enough with the dawdling, tell me, what exactly is the Tianyu Xuan stone used for?”
This was a question that had been bothering him for a long time.
After all, the stone had no energy to absorb and was useless for crafting since he did not need it.
In his hands, it was just like a useless stone, and yet it seemed very important.
Hearing this, Chen Yulu’s expression turned surprisingly serious.
“Its purpose is significant. It’s an indispensable material for a formation array.”
“I really need it.”

Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback: “That’s it? This thing can only be used for formation arrays?”
“It can also be refined into Tianyu Xuan essence, which is much better than the Tianyu Xuan stone!”
Chen Yulu had just finished when she was suddenly stunned.
Because a piece of Tianyu Xuan essence had appeared in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand.
