Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1696

Chapter 1696: Chapter 861: I’m Not Really Interested in You

"Young Master Situ, no need to be so tense. This princess has no particular interest in you. I only have one question—Gu Sheng, where is he?"

She didn’t wait for Situ Qingfeng to answer, and simply continued on her own.

"Don’t try to fob me off with that servant-and-retainer nonsense.

That little disguise of his might fool others, but wanting to slip past my nose and my Gu Worms—he’s still a bit too green. I know he snuck in, and that he’s right by your side. Now, tell me where he is. I have some matters I want to ’discuss’ with him personally."

Situ Qingfeng’s heart suddenly sank! He hadn’t expected this Little Princess of Five Poisons to be so certain of Gu Sheng’s identity, and to come knocking straight at his door! He forced his expression to remain calm, pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

"Princess of Five Poisons, I’m afraid you’ve found the wrong person.

I do indeed know that ’Mr. Yun’, but it was only a cooperative exploration of the Secret Realm, nothing more. After entering the main hall area, we split up and acted separately. Right now I truly don’t know where exactly he’s gone."

"Acting separately?"

The Little Princess of Five Poisons arched her delicate brows, clearly unconvinced.

"I could’ve sworn I just heard you talking about him.

And you parted ways that fast?"

Situ Qingfeng’s face didn’t change, and his tone was firm.

"Princess must have misheard. He and I agreed from the start that once we entered the main hall region, we’d each seek our own opportunities. Just now I was merely lamenting that he’d already taken the lead and gone into the main hall. At the moment, I really don’t know where he is."

The Little Princess of Five Poisons stared at Situ Qingfeng for a while, as if wanting to pry a flaw from his face. In the end, she gently shook her head, her voice carrying a trace of unquestionable resolve.

"Since Young Master Situ refuses to speak honestly, then this princess can only change methods."

Before her words finished, Situ Qingfeng suddenly felt a slight numbness somewhere along his spine, as if something minuscule had bitten him. A chill seeped in at once. It didn’t cause much pain, but it made the circulation of True Qi throughout his body stall by half a beat!

"You...!"

Situ Qingfeng’s expression turned instantly and dreadfully ugly.

The Little Princess of Five Poisons smiled sweetly, as if she’d done something utterly trivial.

"Relax, it’s just a little ’mark’, plus a small trinket to make you behave.

From now on, Young Master Situ, you are my captive.

Until I see Gu Sheng, you’ll obediently stay by my side. Once I’ve seen him, I’ll remove this ’bone-clinging maggot’ for you and let you go free."

Situ Qingfeng’s face was so dark it was almost dripping. He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke coldly.

"Princess of Five Poisons, do you understand what consequences this kind of treatment toward me will bring? My father, Situ Ling—his fury is not something you can bear!"
