After hearing what Gu Qi said, Chen Fengyu couldn't help but be frightened to the point that her beautiful face paled. Her voice trembled as she retreated over and over again, "What are you saying, I, I …"

"Won't you? "Don't worry, we aren't actually getting married. We're just trying to cheat the restrictions."

"Deceiving the Forbidden Area. Could it be that you want to fake a marriage with me? How can you fool such a thing? " Chen Fengjie could not help but angrily say that she could not accept this kind of thing. Not to mention that she could not accept this kind of thing from any woman in the world, but a fake marriage was impossible to accept. Thus, she directly refused, "No way!"

"Listen to me explain, we are only faking marriage, we aren't really together, and we won't do any intimate actions. Also, I have a method to punish the restrictions."

Chen Fengyu's emotions gradually calmed down upon hearing these words. If Gu Qi really had a way to deceive the restrictions, then this would not be impossible. Furthermore, he would be able to avoid some intimate movements. She immediately asked, "What's the method you're talking about?"

"Hand in hand, I think this method might work. The restriction mistook us for lovers."

"Will it really work?" One must know that this restriction seemed to be very special towards Gu Qi. Ordinary people wouldn't take the initiative to attack and normally, it would play a defensive role. However, if Gu Qi got closer by even a little bit, it would attract the active attack of the restriction, so Chen Fengjie had no choice but to doubt Gu Qi's method.

"Are you sure you want to try it?" Chen Fengji repeated his question.

"I'm sure!" Nothing really will hurt you. " Since he had already made up his mind, he naturally didn't have anything else to say. He took the initiative to stretch out his hand and pull Chen Fengyu along, but just as Gu Qi was about to pull her forward, he discovered that her hand was unexpectedly soft and ice-cold. He couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Behind her, Chen Fengji's cold voice rang out, "What are you doing? Why aren't you leaving?" It could be seen that she was shy, but naturally, a daughter of the Huang family being held by a man, how could she not feel awkward? As the Chen family's Patriarch, the young Chen Fengyu had taken on the heavy responsibility of being part of the Chen family since she was young. Since she was young, she had lived by herself and had always been busy with family matters.

Although it seemed unnatural, Chen Fengji still felt happy in her heart, like a little deer randomly running around, and the joy was like a slow surging tide. Sometimes, she couldn't tell what this feeling was, but if she carefully thought about it, it should be the love that her little sister always said she was.

The two of them looked at each other, and it was as if rays of clear lightning were moving in their eyes. After a long time, Gu Qi finally reacted and walked forward, pretending to walk in peace. Only then did the awkward atmosphere finally ease.

Gu Qi carefully walked in, and in the end, he still stepped through the stone door. At the same time, he tightened his nerves and gathered his strength, preparing to receive the attack of the restriction at any time, but what he did not expect was that the restriction on entering hand in hand with Chen Fengyu had actually tacitly acknowledged his existence.

"Success." Because he and Chen Feng were holding hands, the restriction believed that he was Chen Fengjie's husband, and thus recognized his reasonableness. This way, Gu Qi was finally able to smoothly pass through the restriction.

The icy cold bricks echoed with Gu Qi's and Chen Fengji's footsteps. When they walked to the depths of the ruins, they saw a bright ray of light shooting over and their vision became blurry. It was only after a while that Gu Qi could clearly see the scenery in front of him; it was actually a primeval forest.

Just now, when Gu Qi and Chen Fengyu reached the first passage, they saw a forest, and inside the forest, there was a stone door with a seal engraved on it. Now, after passing through the second stone door, they arrived at the second forest.

The dense forest, the green trees, and the green grass covered the entire area. Gu Qi couldn't imagine that the Chen family's ancient monument would have such a place like this.

Next to her, Chen Fengji explained, "This is the true location of the ancient monument. This place is called the Chen Family's Round Forest, located in the center of the circle is the most important place in our Chen Family. Legend has it that there's a heaven-defying divine tool there."

"Divine artifact …" Normally, a spirit treasure would make all the cultivators scramble for it, and divine artifacts were rarely seen even once in a hundred years. Could it be that this small Chen family ruin was hiding this sort of thing? For a moment, Gu Qi could be considered to have understood why so many strong cultivators were fighting over this place. It was probably because of this divine artifact.

However, not to mention whether he could obtain a Divine Artifact or not, even if he could, Gu Qi would be satisfied. Just as he was about to step into the ancient forest, Chen Fengjie grabbed Gu Qi's arm. "What are you trying to do? Didn't I tell you that you have to wait for the Sacrificial Assembly to enter the ancient monument? "

"I know, but since we're already inside, why don't we look around?" Gu Qi pondered if he could enter the forest to see what kind of treasures were inside. If he let himself return just like that, he wouldn't be willing to do so.

However, Chen Fengyu insisted, "No, this is a rule set down by my Chen family. If you insist on barging in, it will lead to serious consequences."

"Serious consequences? "What's the result?" Therefore, he didn't think too much and shook off Chen Fengyu's arm as he directly walked forward. However, just as he took a step forward, a fierce giant python suddenly dropped down from a towering tree. The tree trunk swayed, and leaves fell in succession, as in front of Gu Qi was a giant python with black scales all over its body, black horns on its head, and eyes the size of a fist.

When Chen Fengjiu saw the python, she quickly pulled Gu Qi down, saying anxiously, "This is the Blood Devouring Ancient Python!"

"Blood Devouring Python, what is that?"

"It's the guardian of this ancient forest, but why would it be here?" The Blood Devouring Python before her gave her a strong pressure. If it was in an ordinary situation, this ancient Blood Devouring Python would be wandering in the depths of the Chen family's forest, why would it come to the periphery?

Thinking for a moment, Chen Fengyu thought the only possibility was that she and Gu Qi hadn't entered the Ancient Forest at the start of the Sacrificial Gathering. According to the clan rules, only during the Sacrificial Assembly were allowed to enter the Ancient Era's Python's domain, and because the two of them violated the entry time, they were attacked by the Blood Devouring Python.

"It's all your fault, Gu Qi. This Blood Devouring Python is the ancient forest's guardian beast, and now that it's been provoked, we have to escape." Although they had not fought yet, Chen Fengyu was able to determine in a moment that she and Gu Qi's combined strength were not a match for the Blood Devouring Python.

The aura the Blood Devouring Python was currently emitting was clearly several steps higher than Gu Qi and Chen Fengyu. The pressure emitted from its body made their hearts palpitate, as if the reaper's scythe was resting on their necks. Gu Qi had always been stubborn, but at this moment, he had no choice but to listen to Chen Fengyu. After briefly determining that he wasn't a match for the Blood Devouring Python, he immediately wanted to flee.

However, before he could even take a step forward, the Blood Devouring Python's body, which was as thick as a thick snake, swept across the ground and suddenly attacked. However, before he had even taken a step forward, the Blood Devouring Python's body, which was as wide as a thick snake, swept across the ground.

His body was in pain and blood was seeping out. When Gu Qi was struggling to stand up, Chen Fengyu shouted from the side, "Let's run! We have to run! We can't fight against it!" Chen Fengyu understood Gu Qi. There was no need to mention that Gu Qi definitely wanted to fight the Blood Devouring Python a few rounds, but this method didn't have the slightest benefit. Not only did it consume his strength, it might even cost his life.

Hearing Chen Fengji's urgent words, Gu Qi understood the urgency of the situation and lowered his head to ask, "Can you leave now? I'll take you away."

"I can." Her body was light and graceful. Just as she was about to stand up, she fell to the ground because her legs were too weak. Her delicate body trembled and her lips were slightly white. She didn't seem to be in a good condition.

"What happened to you?" Gu Qi asked worriedly. Although the two of them had been attacked by the Blood Devouring Python at the same time, that attack wasn't fatal. According to Chen Fengji's strength, it shouldn't have been so serious.

"This is poison." Chen Fengji slowly opened his mouth, "There was a deadly poison on the tail of the ancient Blood Devouring Python, I was poisoned by it and was unable to move."

Listening to Chen Fengji's words, Gu Qi realized that the tail of the Blood Devouring Python was indeed as large as a silver needle, and that it was probably its poisonous spike. There was no way Gu Qi could do anything but pick Chen Fengzhu up in his arms and run away. Unfortunately, the Blood Devouring Python wouldn't let Gu Qi leave just like this. Its enormous body was coiled at the entrance of the stone door, and it slightly flicked its tongue. It looked as if it was waiting for Gu Qi to send it into its mouth.

"Dammit …" At this moment, he finally understood why the Blood Devouring Python hadn't taken the initiative to attack previously. It was waiting for him to attack, because Gu Qi and Chen Fengji needed to leave this place, so as long as he guarded the exit of the restriction, then Gu Qi and Chen Fengji would have nowhere to escape. It had to be said that the Blood Devouring Python was extremely intelligent. The more powerful a magical beast was, the more outstanding its intelligence was.

"What should we do? The exit has been sealed." Unfortunately, she remained silent, which surprised Gu Qi. When he turned around, he discovered that Chen Fengyu had already fallen asleep, which startled Gu Qi.

"Hey, Chen Fengji, you're not going to die." Gu Qi thought Chen Fengjiu was already dead, so he immediately hefted his feet and shook his body, causing Chen Fengjiu, who was on his back, to wake up.

"I... "I'm fine, it's just that my wound is very painful. I've been poisoned by the Blood Devouring Python's poison, so I must cure it now."

Listening to Chen Fengyu's words, Gu Qi was momentarily at a loss of what to do. Not only did he have to face the Blood Devouring Python, he also had to help Chen Fengyu cure its poison. In this way, two major events would fall upon his shoulders, and whether or not he could escape from the bloody mouth of the Blood Devouring Python wasn't certain, let alone cure her.

Now that the Blood Devouring Python had blocked the exit, the only choice Gu Qi had was to escape into the Chen family's ancient forest. He did not even turn his head as he directly ran back, intending to run into the depths of the forest.
