Hearing this, soldiers followed what General Cheng ordered. As long as those men with nightmare worms got close, they hurried to scatter in all directions.

In Zhan You's residency

The king of nightmare worms in the pot had drunk up Zhan You's blood.

"Feng Xian, how much is the blood left in the bottle? Has the King of nightmare worms drunk up the blood?" Zhan You sat down with his legs crossed and asked Feng Xian with his eyes closed.

Feng Xian looked at the pot with the king of nightmare worms and raised his head to say to Zhan You, "Master, there isn't any blood left."

"OK. Bring me the knife and continue to feed." Zhan You opened his eyes slightly and said.

Feng Xian wore a hesitant expression, "Master, I am afraid that…"

"Now it is crucial. Don't interrupt it. Don't hesitate!" Zhan You said to Feng Xian in a tone of command.

Hearing this, Feng Xian uncovered the bandage on Zhan You's wound and took out the knife from the box.

When he put the knife on Zhan You's wrist, he said, "Master, try to bear it."

Zhan You nodded and his face was as pale as a piece of white paper.

After Feng Xian put down the knife, he put Zhan You's hand above the pot with the king of nightmare worms inside, "Master, OK. But…"

"Eh-hem… But what?" Hearing what Feng Xian said, Zhan You coughed and asked.

Feng Xian replied, "There is not much blood from your wrist, Master."

"Follow what I ask you to do." Zhan You opened his eyes and said.

Feng Xian frowned and replied, "Yes, Master."

"OK. Squeeze my arm from top to down. There will be some blood." Zhan You said to Feng Xian.

Hearing this, Feng Xian shook his head, "Master, no, no."

"You want to defy my order?" Zhan You said with his changing tone.

With his red eyes, Feng Xian continued, "Master, I don't mean that. I can't… I can't do that."

"Now it isn't time to act on impulse. I promise to you that it is the last time." Hearing this, Zhan You opened his eyes to look at Feng Xian and said again.

Hearing this, Feng Xian hesitated for a while and nodded, "Master, if you don't feel ok, tell me."

Following what Zhan You said, Feng Xian squeezed the blood from Zhan You's shoulder slowly.

Finally, the blood bled from his wrist, dropping into the pot.

The moment he finished everything, Feng Xian hurried to bind up Zhan You's hand.

He asked, "Master, are you OK? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

"Don't worry." With beads of sweat full of his forehead, Zhan You said to Feng Xian with a smile.

At this time, Shuo Ling hurried to arrive here.

People, who were protecting Zhan You, heard the sound and held their weapons tightly.

Seeing this, Shuo Ling snorted and said, "You want to stop me?"

"It's Marquis Shuo. Stop him. Hurry up…" Hearing the sound, Zhan You felt nervous and said.

Those soldiers saw Shuo Ling and felt frightened.

They heard of the fame of Shuo Ling and just now he fought with Commander Yan.

Just for a while, Marquis Shuo came back, but they didn't see Commander Yan.

Thinking of this, they all panicked because Commander Yan with strong martial skills was defeated by Marquis Shuo.

They had common martial skills, so they were weak in the eyes of Marquis Shuo.

Shuo Ling with coldness walked to those soldiers.

Those soldiers felt afraid and stepped back.

Feng Xian found this and stood up to walk forward, "Emperor Xiling has the imperial edict to order you to protect Wizard Zhan today. If you violate it, you know the outcome."

Hearing this, those soldiers looked at each other, stopped, and tried to attack Shuo Ling.

Seeing this, Feng Xian shouted behind them, "Why do you hesitate? Go ahead!"

Hearing this, one of them rushed out first.

Before the man got close to Shuo Ling, he was killed by Shuo Ling's sword directly and then Shuo Ling kicked the soldier's body to the front of those soldiers.

Seeing this, those soldiers felt fluttered. When the man rushed out, they didn't saw Marquis Shuo's move, but the man was killed.

Shuo Ling walked forward and snorted, "Commander Yan was killed by me. If you're afraid, retreat to one side. I will not kill you, or don't blame me."

Meanwhile, Shuo Ling looked at his sword with the remaining blood of the soldier.

Hearing this, those soldiers looked at each other.

Feng Xian felt anxious and continued, "What are you doing? Don't forget the imperial edict. If you violate it, you will die, too. Do you believe that murderous Marquis Shuo will let you go?"

Hearing this, soldiers held their weapons tightly and made up their minds to rush to the front of Marquis Shuo.

Shuo Ling smiled and flashed to the front of Zhan You with his sword.

Seeing this, Feng Xian pointed at Shuo Ling, "You… you, you…"

Before Feng Xian finished, he saw those soldiers fall to the ground directly.

"What's up? Do you want to have a try?" Shuo Ling looked at Feng Xian and asked him with a smile.

Meanwhile, Shuo Ling walked to the front of Zhan You.

Feng Xian hurried to run to Zhan You and opened his arms to block Shuo Ling. Then he looked at Shuo Ling and asked, "What the hell do you want to do? Don't hurt my master!"

"I never think Wizard Zhan's apprentice will protect you so much. I will not hurt your master for someone's requirement. Don't worry." Shuo Ling glanced at Feng Xian and said.

Hearing this, Zhan You pushed Feng Xian away, looked at Shuo Ling, and asked him, "What the hell do you want to do?"

"You will know it then, Wizard Zhan." Shuo Ling said and walked in front of the pot with the king of nightmare worms inside. Then he took out the bottle given by Hou Shi and poured it on the body of the king of nightmare worms.

After he finished, Shuo Ling took back the bottle, stood up, and was about to leave.

The voice of Zhan You came from his back, "What did you put into the bottle?"

"I don't know. You will know it after you have a look." Shuo Ling turned to look at Zhan You and said with a smile.

Shuo Ling turned to leave.

After Shuo Ling left, Zhan You struggled to stand up and narrowly fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Feng Xian hurried to hold Zhan You, "Master, walk slowly."

Zhan You pushed away Feng Xian, staggered in front of the pot with the king of nightmare worms, and got down to have a look.

There was nothing strange with the king of nightmare worms.

Zhan You frowned and thought what Shuo Ling put into it.

It must be made by Hou Shi.

Then Zhan You took out his hand to touch the potion poured by Shuo Ling.

Then he smelled it quickly and felt nervous.

He never thought Hou Shi could make such kind of medicine in such a short time.

Thinking of this, Zhan You couldn't help sitting down, laughing, and facing the sky.

Seeing this, Feng Xian hurried to walk in front of Zhan You and asked, "Master, what's up? Are you OK?"

"Ha, ha, ha… I never think I will lose finally!" Zhan You laughed and said.

He said with tears from his eyes and his emaciated face looked very terrifying.

Zhan You picked up the pot with the king of nightmare worms and looked at it with tears and a smile. He had thought he could defeat Hou Shi with the king of nightmare worms, but he lost finally.

He never thought Hou Shi could make the remedy to control the king of nightmare worms in such a short time.

Feng Xian saw Zhan You and felt a little bit afraid because Zhan You looked insane.

Just for a while, Zhan You immediately recovered and hurried to sit up. He put down the pot with the king of nightmare worms and murmured, "I have thought of it. I have thought of it. I haven't lost. I haven't lost. Not until the end, I haven't lost."

Meanwhile, Zhan You, seeming to be lunatic, turned to say to Feng Xian, "Don't keep idle. Bring me the box. Bring me the box."

Shouted by Zhan You, Feng Xian hurried to bring the box and asked him with puzzlement, "Master, what are you going to do?"

"Feng Xian, follow what I ask you to do. Have you heard of it?" Zhan You stared at Feng Xian and said.

Feng Xian felt afraid by his stare and nodded.

Zhan You took off his upper clothes.

Seeing this, Feng Xian asked with bewilderment, "Master, what are you going to do?"

"Don't ask me. Wait and you will know it." Zhan You took off his clothes and said.

Feng Xian had to nod his head.

After Zhan You took off his clothes, Zhan You took out a small bottle from the box, put it into his mouth, and drank it.

Seeing this, Feng Xian stopped and felt puzzled about why Master drank the potion directly that Master asked him to pour on the king of nightmare worms.

Before Feng Xian figured it out, he took out the knife and handed it to Feng Xian, "Come here. Stab me in my chest."
