Didn't they agree to postpone the rescue mission and the expedition to the north? Why did they suddenly decide to rescue her?
Ning Cheng didn't know that Ning Jing had given birth, nor did he know the exact situation at Tiger's Prison. He quickly realized that Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye wouldn't be the ones to rescue her.
If they wanted to rescue her, they would have started the expedition to the north.
Then who was this Saint Deity that could rescue her from Jun Yixie's heavy defenses?
Ning Cheng's first thought was Bai Yanqing. However, judging from Jun Yi Xie's reaction, it couldn't be Bai Yanqing. Otherwise, Jun Yi Xie wouldn't have questioned him so angrily.
Ning Cheng let Jun Yi Xie beat him without making a sound.
In the end, Jun Yi Xie was tired and Ning Cheng was covered in wounds. Jun Yi Xie fell to the ground dejectedly while Ning Cheng looked at him condescendingly.
What exactly happened at Tiger's Prison that made Jun Yi Xie so angry and dispirited?
At night, Jun Yi Xie secretly left the military camp with Ning Cheng and rushed to Tiger's Prison.
He didn't know what was going on with the oddly shaped blood that the guards reported. He had to go to the scene to understand.
Jun Yi Xie rushed to Tiger's Prison with Ning Cheng. At the same time, Han Yunxi and the others were also rushing to Tiger's Prison.
It had been several days since they sent the letter to Tianshan. They should have received a reply by now, but there was no news at all.
Long Fei Ye used specially trained eagles to send the letter to Tianshan. They could withstand the snowstorms of Tianshan. Moreover, there were special messengers at the top of Tianshan to send letters.
It was the end of spring and the beginning of summer. The snow on Tianshan had almost melted and the weather was just right. It was easy for people to go up and down Tianshan, let alone eagles.
Long Fei Ye knew that something must have happened to Sky Mountain. Therefore, in the past few days, they had not rested at all. They had been traveling day and night.
"It must be the Evil Sword Sect." Long Fei Ye said.
In today's martial arts world, only the Evil Sword Sect could shake Sky Mountain, and only Bai Yanqing could touch the three Supremacies.
"How long has that old fox been hiding in Tianshan Mountain?" Han Yunxi was worried.
Did Bai Yanqing already know about the matter of the Phoenix power? Who was the one who wrote the replies they sent back? Were the various explanations regarding the dual cultivation of Phoenix power and Lustbite power true or false?
Had they been tricked by that old fox, Bai Yanqing?
"In my opinion, that old fox must have attacked the top of Tianshan Mountain after the beginning of spring! Otherwise, you wouldn't have been unable to receive the letter until now. "Gu interrupted. He knew that anything related to Bai Yanqing was not a small matter. It was not for any other reason, but because in this world, the only person Long Fei Ye could not deal with was Bai Yanqing.
If the previous letters were all forged, then Bai Yanqing did not need to stop replying at this time. He could continue to forge another one to avoid arousing their suspicion.
Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye agreed with Gu's guess.
Seeing that both of them nodded, Gu suddenly stopped his horse and asked seriously, "If that's the case, do you still plan to continue to Sky Mountain?"
If his guess was right, they would be courting death if they went to Sky Mountain now! Who knew how many traps Bai Yanqing had prepared for them?
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi exchanged glances. They had thought of what Gu had thought of.
Not to mention that they still did not understand the truth behind the Phoenix power, even if they did not understand the Phoenix power and dual cultivation, they still had to go to Sky Mountain!
This matter did not only concern Elder Kenzō and the three Supremacies, but also the entire Tianshan Kenzō. Tianshan Kenzō had countless disciples, countless sword manuals, and countless treasured swords. It had always been the leader of the martial arts world. Once Tianshan Kenzō fell into Bai Yanqing's hands, it would become a tool for the Heretical Sword Sect to wreak havoc in the martial arts world.
Before the world was in chaos, the martial arts world would be in chaos first.
They had already sacrificed their time on the northern expedition to rush here. There was no reason for them to turn back, and there was no reason for them to hide.
Moreover, they had already found seven types of Ten Thousand Poisons. Now, they were only left with Bai Yanqing's blood and the little thing's poisonous blood. Even if Bai Yanqing did not look for them, they would look for Bai Yanqing one day.
Coldly, Han Yunxi said, "Even if it's a mountain of swords or a sea of flames, we're not afraid of him!"
She had not had the time to cultivate recently, but her connection with the little thing was getting stronger. She could clearly feel the little thing cultivating, and could also clearly feel the little thing's poisonous fangs recovering. The little thing must have eaten a lot of good things in Bai Yanqing's poison storage space.
She even had a faint sense of familiarity these past two nights. She only felt that the poison storage space was about to level up again. This feeling was very similar to the one she felt when the poison storage space leveled up from level one to level two on Sky Mountain.
Perhaps, the little thing would continue to help her level up this time.
As long as her poison storage space leveled up to level three, the little thing would be free. As long as they got the little thing's poisonous blood, they really did not have to fear Bai Yanqing's indestructible body.
Gu could not convince Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye, so he could only follow in silence. Gu was worried that once he had to fight with Bai Yanqing, he would have no choice but to reveal his secret.
Gu was conflicted, and a very arrogant idea came to him. He thought, he had to think of a way to challenge Bai Yanqing to a duel, and avoid Poison Girl and the others.
The group sped up, speeding towards Sky Mountain. At their speed, they would reach the foot of Sky Mountain in about five days.
A few days passed, and Jun Yi Xie brought Ning Cheng back to Tiger's Prison.
"Take him to the dungeon, and give him one antidote a day. Remember that! If he dies, this prince will have all of you buried with him! "Cold, Jun Yi Xie said Jun Yi Xie.
Ning Cheng still did not know about the bloody water. He was already Jun Yi Xie's last hostage. He thought, no matter who saved Mu Ling'er and the others, as long as it was not Bai Yanqing, the situation would not be too bad.
He was the only hostage left in Jun Yi Xie's hands, so he did not have to think too much.
After imprisoning Ning Cheng in the dungeon of Tiger's Prison, Jun Yi Xie had the guards lead the way to see the pools of blood.
Although the three pools of blood had already dried up, there were dark red marks on the ground that even the rain could not wash away.
When Jun Yi Xie saw it, he immediately determined that the blood belonged to the poisonous tigers he had tamed, and the tigers had died from poison!
"Master, who could be the next killer?" Hao San asked in a low voice.
The poisonous tigers that Jun Yi Xie had tamed had already been turned into poisonous corpses, so they had the ability to resist most poisons. Only a few rare high-level poisons could poison them to death.
In other words, the poison skills of the person who could poison these poisonous tigers to death were definitely not ordinary.
Jun Yi Xie ignored Hao San and asked Coldly, "Are you sure that Mu Ling'er and the others rode the white tigers to escape?"
"Your Highness Duke of Kang, we all saw it with our own eyes. When Mu Ling'er was giving birth, the midwife also entered the room, and it was also the white tigers that blocked the way! "The guard reported truthfully.
If it was not for the fact that they did not dare to attack the white tigers in the beginning and lost a lot of time, Mu Ling'er and the others might not have been able to escape.
Many of the guards at Tiger's Prison had died, and the survivors all resented those poisonous tigers. Of course, they only dared to complain in their hearts.
Jun Yi Xie still did not say anything and walked into the dense forest.
The two pools of blood in the dense forest had also dried up, leaving behind a mark that could not be erased. Jun Yi Xie stopped beside the human-shaped blood mark. He used his finger to lightly smear some of the blood, sniffed it seriously, and took it away without another word.
He spent half a day to identify that this blood was human blood and not tiger blood. Furthermore, it was the blood of a woman who had died after being poisoned.
What exactly had happened?
Jun Yi Xie was certain that the person who poisoned the white tigers was definitely not Han Yunxi. Other than Han Yunxi, who else had such high poison skills to be able to poison five white tigers to death in such a short period of time?
Where did the last white tiger go?
Who was the woman who was poisoned to the point that not even her bones remained? Where did the rest of the people go?
A complicated look flashed past Hao San's eyes, and he asked again, "Master, could it be that he …"
The "he" that Hao San was referring to was Bai Yanqing.
"If he wanted to make a move, why wait until now? Why go through so much trouble?" Jun Yi Xie asked Coldly.
Compared to the person who poisoned them, he was more concerned about the identity of the black-robed man.
Right at this moment, a guard hurriedly came to report, "Your Highness the Sangfroid Duke, Uncle Cheng has been found, but Deacon Jin … has not been found."
Jun Yi Xie looked over sharply, extremely displeased, "Bring him in!"
After the riot at Tiger's Den, Uncle Cheng and Deacon Jin had both disappeared. The guards had been searching nearby, and only today did they find Uncle Cheng.
Tiger's Den was surrounded by dense forests, and they had set up many ambushes. Even if Uncle Cheng escaped from Tiger's Den, he might not be able to walk out of this forest.
Jun Yi Xie had always thought that the black-robed man was an intruder, and had never understood that the black-robed man was Deacon Jin.
As soon as Uncle Cheng was brought over, before he could even open his mouth to beg for mercy, Jun Yi Xie viciously stepped over him, directly stomping him to the ground, "Where's Jin Zi?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen him since that night! Your Highness the Sangfroid Duke, on account of my meritorious service in reporting the news, please spare me! "Uncle Cheng hurriedly pleaded.
Not only was he pleading, but he was also reminding Jun Yi Xie that he was an elder of the Di Clan and could provide a lot of information about the Di Clan, so he could not be killed.
Jun Yi Xie was naturally aware of this, or else he would not have kept Uncle Cheng alive until now.
"What exactly is Jin Zi's background?" Jun Yi Xie questioned. By now, he was more or less suspicious.
"Nothing much. He was just a slave that the Wintercrow Tribe bought from the Three-Way Black Market, and Master Ning bought him," Uncle Cheng answered truthfully.
Jun Yi Xie had naturally investigated this matter.
"Could he have been the one to save her?" Jun Yixie asked directly.
Uncle Cheng immediately denied it. "Your Highness the Sangfroid Duke, if Jin Zi could save someone, he would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?"
These words were indeed reasonable.
Jun Yi Xie became irritated. He released his foot from Uncle Cheng's back, and Uncle Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to get up, Jun Yi Xie suddenly kicked him viciously in the face, sending him flying.
"Men, take him to the dungeon! Tell Ning Cheng that he was the one who betrayed the Di Clan! "Jun Yi Xie said Coldly.
He could not kill Ning Cheng now, but he could slowly torture Ning Cheng.
Tonight, I will let Ning Cheng have a taste of being betrayed by his loyal servant!
