The Magnificent Son-in-law Chapter 956 956: Sincerity Shown Through the Eyes

Silence lasted for a long ti. Gu Shi lowered his hand from Qin Mantong's snow-white neck and smiled, "Could you sit back down?"

Qin Mantong quickly nodded and stumbled back onto the sofa.

She truly dared not move a muscle just now, afraid that even a slight movent might get her throat slit by the five talon-like fingers before her.

Coupled with her ntal tension, the agony she experienced was unimaginable.

Xiao Feng looked at Gu Shi and thought to himself, "Not human."

This wasn't an insult, because Gu Shi indeed could not be considered human.

What Xiao Feng ant by "not human" referred to Gu Shi's ability to control his body.

Holding up an arm for such a long ti without even a minor shake clearly demonstrated the terrifying strength of his physical body!

"Your condition, it's not that I can't agree, but before that, I have to make sure you have the ability to restore my state."

Gu Shi sat back down on the sofa and said, "The blood of ordinary people, although useful to , is insufficient.

What I need is... the blood of those beasts' descendants who buried back then!"

When Gu Shi said these words, his eyes were bloodshot.

Qin Mantong, being close to him, imdiately trembled lightly, tightened her clothes, and inexplicably felt the temperature around her drop significantly.

Xiao Feng naturally sensed Gu Shi's anger too.

But upon reflection, there wasn't much surprising about it. Selfless heroes who risk everything to save the world are indeed a rarity.

Treat others as you wish to be treated.

Pondering from this perspective makes it easier to understand Gu Shi's resentnt.

"If you want to get the blood of the Ancient Divine Beast for you, I definitely can't, but finding people isn't difficult." Xiao Feng said confidently.

He believed that finding the descendants from Gu Shi's old village was sothing that Pang Tong could also accomplish.

Probably, the reason for not doing so was a concern that once Gu Shi fully recovered, he might go out of control.

And Gu Shi sought him out, likely for this very reason.

"So, you're agreeing?" Gu Shi's bloodshot in his eyes gradually faded, and his lips showed a hint of a smile.

Xiao Feng nodded swiftly without thinking, "Agreed, now release her."

Of course, Xiao Feng wasn't genuinely intending to cooperate with Gu Shi.

Old Yang's corpse was still warm, and he had promised to avenge him just an hour ago; how could he now reach a deal with the killer? That would be unthinkable.

The purpose of discussing so many conditions was to make Gu Shi genuinely believe he was willing to cooperate.

Otherwise, if he agreed imdiately, given the other's suspicious nature, who knows what complications might arise.

However, even so, Gu Shi still did not completely trust Xiao Feng.

He extended his hand in front of him, rotated it, and said, "I will release her for sure, but before I do, I have a small request.

That is... I need to make a small cut on you, just enough to draw a little blood, just a tiny bit."

"Is that really necessary?" Xiao Feng frowned, his refusal clear.

He wasn't afraid that Gu Shi would take the chance to harm him, turning "just a little blood" into "a million little blood," but was concerned that being wounded by sothing not human might bring grave danger.

Like in zombie movies, getting bitten by a zombie or scratched by its nails ans catching "zombie poison," and if it's not extracted with sticky rice or similar, the person will eventually beco a zombie.

This claim might not be reliable, but any adverse effect is unacceptable. Xiao Feng didn't want to risk his life finding out what a zombie scratch would do.

"Releasing her is my gesture of goodwill, so shouldn't you show proper sincerity too?" Gu Shi said gruffly.

Xiao Feng replied, confused, "Aren't I being sincere enough? Just look at my eyes, so genuine!"

Gu Shi's anger surged imdiately; Xiao Feng's attitude and tone made him feel mocked.

Right at that mont, Xiao Feng pressed strongly on the door panel behind him, using the counterforce to rush toward Gu Shi on the sofa.

He knew that continuing talks would lead nowhere. Dragging it out served no purpose, so he resorted to this ans of rescue.

Gu Shi, upon seeing Xiao Feng move, was about to attack Qin Mantong at his right, yet strangely, just as his claws were about to touch Qin Mantong, a strong sense of crisis struck him.

This sense of crisis seed ingrained, impossible to ignore, forcing him to pause.

Quickly he turned his head and saw the source of the crisis... the Soul-Sealing Nail in Xiao Feng's hand.

In an instant, fear flickered in Gu Shi's eyes, and he quickly retreated.

Qin Mantong gnashed her teeth and seized the mont, rushing to hide behind Xiao Feng, clutching his back and trembling.

Before dealing with Gu Shi, Xiao Feng had asked old master Jiu if there was a way to deal with the Dry Bone Stake.

Having combed through various resources, Jiu's final recomndation was that the Soul-Sealing Nail might work.

Perhaps, which basically ans it's not a guarantee.

Thus, Xiao Feng's action now carried an elent of gambling, though the stakes of losing would cost Qin Mantong's life.

"Run!"

Xiao Feng grabbed Qin Mantong's wrist, opened the door with his other hand, and turned to flee without hesitation.

Earlier in his own yard, when twelve people surrounded Gu Shi, he still managed to escape; staying to fight would be pure folly.

Especially when, in Xiao Feng's understanding, the Soul-Sealing Nail might not effectively wound Gu Shi; Gu Shi's fear of it was more a natural suppression.

Like the relationship between a mouse and a cat.

Dashing downstairs, Xiao Feng saw many people standing across the street, one of whom was in a heated argunt with the police.

"You can crack down on prostitution, but there was only in the room. Tell , how did I solicit, who did I solicit?"

"Please calm down, this is for your own safety."

"Can I stay calm? Woken up in the middle of the night, wasted my accommodation money for nothing!"

The police seed helpless in such situations, resorting to placating efforts.

"Master, you finally made it out!" Imdiately upon seeing Xiao Feng, Di Junxiong rushed over.

Xiao Feng was about to speak when he heard the radio on his disciple's shoulder crackle, "Soone climbed to the hotel rooftop... now jumping to the roof next door, moving quickly... already out of the monitored area."

"Just... lost?" Di Junxiong's mouth twitched with this result he found hard to accept.

Xiao Feng patted him on the shoulder, "Thanks for all the effort, working half the night for nothing."

"Not entirely wasted." Di Junxiong shook his head with a wry smile, "Caught two drug users; when those two kids were brought to the car and saw our police force stationed at the corner, they collapsed in fright on the spot."

"Let the hotel residents back in, everything should be okay." Xiao Feng said calmly, anwhile developing his plan for dealing with Gu Shi.

The breakthrough lies in those descendants from Gu Shi's old village.
