"Chi Chi …"
The flexible steel sword emitted a murderous aura.
Jiang Haotian's expression changed drastically. He had thought that the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. But who would have thought that there was actually a hunter behind the oriole!
Seeing that Jiang Haotian and the black-robed woman were locked in a fierce battle, Chen Nan frowned. He was a little surprised.
The person who helped him at this critical moment was actually Gongsun Yudie's archenemy!
Didn't she always want to kill me?
Chen Nan was a little puzzled. In the past, when he fought with others, Gongsun Yudie would sneak attack him from behind more than once. But today, not only did she not sneak attack him, she even helped him. This was a little inconceivable.
Gongsun Yudie was indeed the most outstanding disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect. After not seeing her for a while, her cultivation had improved a lot. She had already reached the peak of the Ninth Celestial Layer.
Just one more step and she would be a Tenth Celestial Layer expert.
If Jiang Haotian was not injured, he would be able to fight Gongsun Yudie to a draw.
However, Chen Nan's Heaven Splitting Triple Strike had already injured him quite a bit. Facing Gongsun Yudie's fierce attacks, he was a little powerless. He could only dodge continuously.
After withstanding more than ten moves, Jiang Haotian made a feint and turned around to flee.
In the forest, only Chen Nan and Gongsun Yudie were left.
Looking at the woman who had threatened to kill him time and time again, Chen Nan smiled and said, "Why didn't you sneak attack me today?"
"Don't think that I'm here to save you. I just don't want you to die in the hands of others."
Gongsun Yudie looked at him coldly. She gripped the flexible steel sword in her hand and walked towards Chen Nan step by step.
In fact, she had come to the forest earlier than Jiang Haotian. It was just that she had been hiding in the dark. The black shadow by the roadside was her.
Under the dim moonlight, Chen Nan stared at her. "So, you're here to kill me?"
"As I said before, I will definitely bring your head back to the Heavenly Sword Sect. Today, you will die without a doubt." Gongsun Yudie had already arrived in front of Chen Nan and raised the flexible sword in her hand.
Chen Nan shrugged indifferently. "You've said this countless times, but you can't bear to kill me every time. Is it because you like me?"
"You!"
Gongsun Yudie glared at him. "Stop talking nonsense. I will definitely cut off your head today!"
Chen Nan grinned and shook his head. "You're just stubborn. Why don't we make a bet? I bet that you won't kill me."
"You've lost for sure!"
Gongsun Yudie stood in front of him, her face as cold as ice.
She raised the soft steel sword in her hand and aimed it at Chen Nan's throat. As long as she stabbed forward, she would immediately end Chen Nan's life.
However, Chen Nan was not nervous at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "Well, don't pretend. I know you won't do it. Come, let's sit down and talk about life. "
Gongsun Yudie was a little conflicted.
She even wondered if there was something wrong with her brain. This guy was obviously an enemy, so why couldn't she kill him?
She had followed him into the forest to kill Chen Nan, but in the end, she couldn't help but save him …
Gongsun Yudie was silent for a while. Then, she coldly snorted. "You're injured. It's not fair for me to kill you. The next time we meet, I won't let you go!" After saying that, she turned around and walked away.
"Hey, wait a minute." Chen Nan hurriedly stopped her and said, "Since you saved me, you should be a good person to the end. Help me to the end."
"What do you mean?" Gongsun Yudie turned around.
"I'm seriously injured now, and I don't have any medicine on me. Can you help me pick some herbs?"
Gongsun Yudie's face turned cold. "Do you really think I'm Lei Feng? I can't wait for you to die right now. Help you pick herbs? Dream on! "
"You're so cruel."
Chen Nan said with a sad face. Then, his head tilted to the side and his body fell to the ground.
"Stop pretending. Don't think I don't know."
Gongsun Yudie said coldly. She wrapped her flexible sword around her waist and turned around to leave.
However, after walking for more than ten meters, she stopped again. There was no movement behind her. Chen Nan was lying there, and she didn't know if he was dead or alive.
"Hey, stop pretending. I know you won't die."
Chen Nan didn't move. He didn't respond.
Gongsun Yudie frowned. After hesitating for a while, she turned around and walked back. She bent down and pushed Chen Nan. "Hey, wake up."
Chen Nan slowly opened his eyes and pretended to be weak. "Why did you come back?"
Gongsun Yudie didn't answer. Her voice was still cold. "I don't know much about medicine. What herbs do you need?"
"Three Immortal Roots, Life Seizing Grass, and Soul Severing Incense. These three are enough. "
Hearing this, Gongsun Yudie's face changed. "Are you kidding me? These are all poisons. How can they be used to treat injuries?"
"Just listen to me. Go and pick the herbs." Chen Nan looked at her and smiled. "Besides, if I die from poison, won't that be exactly what you want?"
Gongsun Yudie glared at him. "Don't be so cheeky. I'm serious."
"I'm very serious!" Chen Nan stared at her. "Why are you so worried about my life?"
"It's best if you die. It saves me the trouble of killing you."
Gongsun Yudie snorted coldly. She turned around and walked deeper into the forest.
Looking at her back, Chen Nan's expression was a little complicated.
He really didn't understand what this Gongsun Yudie was thinking. She kept saying that she wanted to kill him, but she couldn't do it every time. Was she really so soft-hearted?
"A woman's heart is really like a needle at the bottom of the sea. It's too hard to figure out."
Chen Nan sighed. He sat up and leaned against a tree.
About ten minutes later, Gongsun Yudie came back. She was holding some flowers and roots in her hands. These were the three poisons that Chen Nan had mentioned earlier.
"There aren't many herbs in this forest, so I only found these."
Gongsun Yudie sat down beside him and threw the herbs to Chen Nan.
Chen Nan cleaned the dust off the herbs, crushed them, threw them into his mouth, and chewed.
Seeing Chen Nan eat them directly, Gongsun Yudie's expression turned serious. These three herbs were highly toxic. Any one of their leaves could kill an elephant, but Chen Nan actually ate them all.
"Hey, how are you feeling?"
She couldn't help but push Chen Nan. She seemed a little worried.
"Urgh …"
Chen Nan opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Gongsun Yudie was shocked. She quickly asked, "Are you alright?"
"This is the blood that has accumulated in my internal organs. Only by spitting it out can I recover faster." Chen Nan said. He looked at her suspiciously. "You're so worried about me. Don't tell me you really like me? I'm a man with a wife. "
"Go to hell, you shameless bastard!"
Gongsun Yudie glared at him and turned her back to him.
