Huangfu Chen wanted to leave. He was good at martial arts and it would be easy for him to leave in such a chaotic night. Until he saw that Murong Ke was willing to stay to save Yaoyao.
If Murong Ke was killed by Qi Ruoshui here …
Yaoyao would never forget him in this life and would even be sad for a long time.
He couldn't let Murong Ke die here.
"It seems that you don't have a hostage to threaten me." Huangfu Chen said with a faint smile.
Qi Ruoshui looked at him coldly. "Do you think Lu Yaoyao won't be in danger if she leaves like this?"
Huangfu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly. "What do you mean?"
"Didn't you say that she is very talented? When do you think she will know that she was poisoned?" Qi Ruoshui's eyes flashed with a vicious and proud smile.
"Qi Ruoshui!" Huangfu Chen was furious. "How dare you poison her! You promised me that you wouldn't hurt her!"
"I only promised you that I wouldn't kill her. I didn't promise you that I wouldn't poison her." Qi Ruoshui said with a smile, "You better hope that I can find her. Otherwise, no one will cure her of the poison."
Huangfu Chen suddenly grabbed Qi Ruoshui's neck. "Qi Ruoshui, if anything happens to her, I won't let you go."
"How will you not let me go?" Qi Ruoshui didn't seem to be afraid. Instead, she laughed happily.
"You don't want to know." Huangfu Chen said coldly.
Qi Ruoshui looked up at him. "If you kill me, no one will cure Lu Yaoyao of the poison. I am not afraid of death, but you are afraid that she will be hurt. Huangfu Chen, do you know why Lu Yaoyao likes Mo Rongzhan instead of you?"
Huangfu Chen wanted to strangle Qi Ruoshui, but when he thought of Yaoyao, he let go of her stiffly. "What kind of poison did you poison her?"
"The Yin Snake Poison." Qi Ruoshui's smile deepened. "If your sweetheart doesn't take the antidote, she will vomit and have diarrhea within three days. Maybe she will think that it is because she is pregnant. A month later, there will be a poison in her ears, nose, and abdomen. By then, it will be difficult to save her."
"Qi Ruoshui, you're really vicious and sinister!" Huangfu Chen gritted his teeth. He had been on guard against Qi Ruoshui harming Yaoyao, but he did not expect her to secretly poison Yaoyao.
He was worried that Yaoyao didn't know anything about Gu poisons, so he specially found a book about Gu poisons for her to read, but Yaoyao still didn't realize that she was poisoned.
"Yes, I am that kind of person." Qi Ruoshui calmly admitted, "I can even harm Huangfu Jiulan with a Gu, what can a mere Lu Yaoyao do?"
Huangfu Chen stared at him with widened eyes. "What did you say?"
Huangfu Chen's expression was a bit ferocious. "She just wanted to torture me. She couldn't be with Huangfu Jiulan, but she didn't allow Huangfu Jiulan to be good to any woman. She threw me into the Gu. If I wasn't lucky, I would have been killed by her. Huangfu Jiulan didn't do anything. After he knew that I was his daughter, he only felt disgust for me and wanted to kill me. Do you know how I survived? I swallowed Cheluan's Golden Silkworm King and killed all the Gu. I humbly fawned on Cheluan and let her know that I was only Huangfu Jiulan's daughter. She treated me as an adopted daughter but didn't teach me anything. It took me five years to learn how to use Gu and let Huangfu Jiulan be my first practice target.
"My uncle died because of your Gu," Yang Kai said. Huangfu Chen's eyes were cold. Even though Qi Ruoshui's life was difficult in the past, he couldn't sympathize with her now.
"Yes, my guilt towards him before he died is real." Qi Ruoshui chuckled. "He really hates me to the bone."
Huangfu Chen remembered seeing the old Witch King in the hall. "You also used Gu on the old Witch King?"
Qi Ruoshui's lips curled up into a smile. "Yeah, didn't she throw me to feed the Gu? I'll let her Gu extend her life and let her watch as the Priest Hall becomes mine."
"You are indeed a madman." Huangfu Chen shook his head. The person in front of him was no longer the Qi Ruoshui he knew. The Qi Ruoshui in the past would not be so gloomy and vicious. This person was the Witch King of the Priest Hall.
"Even if I am a madman, I was forced," Qi Ruoshui said coldly.
Huangfu Chen glanced at her and turned to leave. After a few steps, he turned back and asked, "Whose son is Xi 'er?"
"Hehe, aren't you asking unnecessary questions? He is naturally my son who I carried for ten months," Qi Ruoshui said.
"He is not Huangfu Jilan's son," Huangfu Chen said with certainty. "Whose son is he?"
Qi Ruoshui's expression changed slightly. "He is Huangfu Jilan's son?"
"Is he?" Huangfu Chen didn't argue with her and just asked again.
Qi Ruoshui looked at Huangfu Chen's gradually disappearing figure with a gloomy gaze. She turned back to look at the empty room.
"Witch King, the Priest Hall has been rearranged with new guards." Wu Ming walked over silently.
"How are your injuries?" Qi Ruoshui looked at his shoulder.
Wu Ming said, "It's just a flesh wound, nothing serious."
"Jin Shanshan escaped," Qi Ruoshui said in a low voice. "We don't have any bargaining chips to exchange for Liuchen."
"I'll go save Liuchen," Wu Ming said.
Qi Ruoshui immediately shook her head. "No, that's the Jin Kingdom's military camp. It won't be easy to save Liuchen."
Besides, Ye Chunnan and Tang Zhen were there.
"Then are you going to see Murong Ke?" Wu Ming asked.
"Capture a few people?" Qi Ruoshui thought of everything that happened in the Priest Hall tonight, and the anger in her chest rose again.
Wu Ming said, "Three, two dead."
Qi Ruoshui sneered. "Qian Luosha and the other A-class killers are all out."
"With Murong Ke in our hands, they won't dare to act rashly," Wu Ming said.
"I'll go to the palace first," Qi Ruoshui said coldly. "Donglai cannot be lost. If necessary, we can only send Tuoba Qiu."
Wu Ming frowned slightly. "Tuoba Qiu is Tuoba Xuanyuan's cousin after all. Isn't it risky to let him lead the troops?"
"He has always been at odds with Tuoba Xuanyuan, and he has 20,000 elite soldiers. Before the Dark North Kingdom reinforcements us, he can hold Donglai for a while," Qi Ruoshui said.
"Witch King …" Wu Ming looked at Qi Ruoshui silently. "Do you really think Western Liang can win?"
Qi Ruoshui smiled. "What I want is never Western Liang's victory, but the chaos of the world."
Only when the world was in chaos would the people remember the benefits of the old dynasty. They would miss the benefits of unifying the world. At that time, as the descendants of the Huangfu Dynasty, they would naturally receive the support of the people.
So what if the military force was not strong? There were countless people in the world. As long as they recognized who was the master of the world, then that person would be able to obtain the world.
