Han Yunxi was tightly held by the female assassin. No matter how she struggled, the female assassin remained unmoved.
This group of assassins understood Mu Qingwu very well, yet they were targeting her. Could it be that these assassins had something to do with the Ten-Thousand Snake Poison that Mu Qingwu was afflicted with?
They knew that she was investigating the source of the Ten-Thousand Snake Poison, so they kidnapped her?
Other than this reason, Han Yunxi couldn't think of a second one.
She was someone who cherished her life very much. She was able to calmly analyze the situation because she was certain that the female assassin wouldn't kill her.
If they wanted to kill her, why would they kidnap her?
The female assassin had plenty of opportunities to end her life with one strike.
Since it was a kidnapping, they must have a request. Thus, she was temporarily safe.
At this moment, Han Yunxi's ears were filled with "du du du" sounds. Not only was there poison on the female assassin's sword, she also hid quite a few poisons on her body.
It looked like she was someone who was good at using poison. Her martial arts were also so good. Could it be that she was the leader of Northern Li's spies?
Thinking of this, Han Yunxi pretended to struggle. She grabbed the female assassin's arm and used her fingernails to pierce it.
Who knew that the female assassin would immediately lower her head and disdainfully taunt, "Han Yunxi, put away your little tricks. There's nothing great about it, humph!"
She knew that Han Yunxi had poisoned her, but she didn't stop her. As she spoke, she glanced at her arm. At this moment, the poison in Han Yunxi's fingernails had already seeped into her skin, but she didn't have any reaction at all.
How could this be?
Han Yunxi's face was filled with shock. It had to be known that she had used ant poison. It was this medicine that had tormented Han Yuqi until he hovered between life and death.
Those who were poisoned would feel intense pain at the beginning. Very quickly, they would feel as if their arm was being bitten by thousands of ants. The person wouldn't die from the poison, but they would be clawed until they were neither human nor ghost, living a life worse than death.
However, not only did this female assassin not feel any pain, her arm was still so strong, holding her tightly.
That was impossible!
One had to know that in ancient times, ant poison could not be extracted. One would only be poisoned if they were bitten by poisonous ants. The ant poison she used was carried in the detoxification system. It was the poison essence extracted from the poisonous ants. Therefore, there was a certain difference between being bitten by a poisonous ant and being bitten by a poisonous ant, and the antidote was also different.
In other words, Han Yunxi was the only one who had the antidote for the ant poison. It was impossible for this female assassin to have the antidote!
Without the antidote, she actually had no reaction at all?
That's strange!
Han Yunxi didn't believe it. She clenched her teeth and dug her nails deeper, making the ant poison penetrate faster.
But who would have thought that the female assassin was still smiling disdainfully, as if it had nothing to do with her. She didn't even look at her as she borrowed strength from the tree and flew even faster.
Could it be …
Han Yunxi thought of something and almost blurted it out. Fortunately, she shut her mouth in time. However, her face was pale and very ugly.
Immune!
The reason why this person didn't have any reaction to the ant poison was most likely because she had immunity against poison.
There was a type of person who had immunity against poison, so they wouldn't be poisoned. Those who were born with immunity were few and far between. Even if they were born with it, they would only be immune to one or two types of poison. But for those who were injected with various antibodies to develop immunity, then there was a possibility that they would have immunity against a large type of poison. The same type of poison wouldn't be able to poison her.
Injecting antibodies was a modern term. In ancient times, it was called "poison nurturing".
Modern injecting antibodies to poison were divided into Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. The higher the level, the higher the immunity and the stronger the poison that they could withstand. Of course, the higher the immunity, the more serious the damage to the body's normal functions. It could even be life-threatening. So no matter if it was research and development or clinical application, it was strictly controlled or even prohibited.
Han Yunxi remembered that she had read in an ancient poison manual. In ancient times, poison nurturing was also divided into Poison Humans, Poison Corpses and Poison Gu.
Poison Humans had a limited lifespan, at most thirty years. They had their own independent personality and were no different from a normal person. They had immunity against low level poisons such as those that only affected the skin, flesh, hair and other non-fatal poisons.
Poison Corpses were actually similar to Death Soldiers. Their lifespan didn't exceed a year. They had immunity against middle level poisons such as those that affected the bones and blood.
As for Poison Gu, what kind of existence was it? There were very few records in ancient books and Han Yunxi didn't know much about it. She only knew that according to the records, even those high level poisons that affected the internal organs couldn't do anything to Poison Gu.
Han Yunxi had always felt that ancient poisons were plentiful but the poison arts were far from modern times. The records in ancient poison manuals were most likely just a hypothesis and didn't have the conditions to realize it. Even if it really existed, it could only be an individual case.
But who knew that she had underestimated the poison arts of ancient times!
Today, she had easily encountered one.
Based on the situation of this female assassin, she should be a Poison Person.
The discovery of the Ten-Thousand Snake Poison and the Poison Mosquito Swarm had already caused Han Yunxi to feel apprehensive. Now that a Poison Person had appeared, what kind of poison expert was behind the Northern Li Country's spies!
Previously, Han Yunxi had suspected that this female assassin was the head of the spies. But now, it seemed that she was just a tool. There must be someone behind her.
She had to admit that the opponent was mysterious and valiant. It had somewhat exceeded Han Yunxi's expectations.
Of course, Han Yunxi wasn't someone who was easy to deal with. She carried with her a large arsenal of poisons. Was there any need to fear that there wouldn't be enough to deal with this female Poison Person assassin?
She pretended to be discouraged and let go of the female assassin's hand. She coldly questioned, "Who exactly are you? Why did you kidnap me? "
The female assassin seemed to be very disdainful of Han Yunxi and even seemed to be dissatisfied. She gave a disdainful snort and didn't answer.
"You dare to kidnap me? His Highness Duke of Qin will definitely not let you off!"
Han Yunxi deliberately provoked while her small hand silently reached into her medical pouch. With a thought, she casually grabbed a handful of Bone Eroding Powder.
Bone Eroding Powder, as the name implied, was a poison specially used to corrode bones. Once it entered the bloodstream, it would immediately invade the marrow.
"Han Yunxi, do you really think you've become a phoenix? Really, really shameless ah! "
The female assassin became even more disdainful. She landed on the edge of the cliff and grabbed Han Yunxi tightly, as if wanting to jump down.
"It's so-so. You're about the same." Han Yunxi said very calmly, her gaze sweeping over the wound on the female assassin's arm that she had just scratched out with her fingernails.
"You dare to scold me!" The female assassin was enraged. She glared coldly and turned her arm towards Han Yunxi.
"How about it?" Han Yunxi coldly provoked. Then, with quick reflexes, the hand holding the Bone Eroding Powder immediately moved towards the female assassin's wound.
But!
Unexpectedly, the female assassin's vigilance was very high. Almost without thinking, she immediately pushed Han Yunxi away. In a flash, she pulled out her sword and sliced off an entire piece of flesh from her arm!
The entire process didn't take more than ten seconds!
So fast! So ruthless!
Han Yunxi landed at the side and lost her balance. She fell a few steps and sat on the ground, almost falling off the cliff.
As long as she held the female assassin's wound, the poison would definitely be administered. But she had never thought that the female assassin would actually slice off her flesh without hesitation. Wasn't this reaction too fast and too professional?
Of course, Han Yunxi who was sitting on the edge of the cliff couldn't care so much. She was so frightened that her heart almost stopped beating. She hurriedly got up and wanted to run.
But the female assassin instantly closed in and grabbed her collar, roaring angrily, "You slut, go and die!"
Han Yunxi still wanted to use poison. She could only use poison. But who knew that the female assassin didn't give her any chance and suddenly threw her off the cliff.
"Ah …"
Only a scream was heard. Following that, the female assassin chased after her. Very quickly, the two figures disappeared into the abyss …
"Bang!"
A loud sound rang through the entire General's Residence Main Hall.
Long Fei Ye stood high up on the main seat. His face was like black ice and his anger overflowed to the heavens. It was like the sky before a violent snowstorm. Especially that pair of cold eyes, it was so deep that it penetrated people's hearts.
Because of his rage, it created a strong pressure. The large Main Hall seemed to have become smaller. The cold aura intimidated Great General Gu and the Heavenly Fragrance Teahouse's servants to kneel on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.
Qin Wangfei was kidnapped. What a serious matter this was!
The anger in Long Fei Ye's deep eyes jumped. He didn't realize how angry he was. He was so angry that he couldn't calm down.
Since the people who kidnapped Han Yunxi were familiar with Mu Qingwu, then it must be the group of spies from Northern Li Country.
Now that Han Yunxi had fallen into their hands, how could she be in good condition?
General Mu knew that this matter was serious, but he didn't expect His Highness Duke of Qin to be so angry. At this time, he didn't dare to ask for punishment. The most important thing was to hurry and save the princess.
His hands were trembling as he reported, "Your Highness Duke of Qin, Qingwu has already sent people to seal off the entrances to the mountains. She must still be in the mountains. Since those people are kidnapping her, esteemed wangfei's life won't be in danger for the time being. "
Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye blurted out, "This prince won't allow anyone to touch a single hair on her head!"
Of course he knew that the spies from Northern Li Country kidnapped Han Yunxi. They didn't want her life, but Han Yunxi had fallen into the hands of those women. How could she not be tortured?
That cowardly woman must be scared to death!
Hearing His Highness Duke of Qin's words, General Mu was even more stunned. He never expected His Highness Duke of Qin to be so protective of Han Yunxi. For a moment, he didn't dare to speak.
It was his son who took her out. If they couldn't find her or something happened to her, then the General's Estate wouldn't be able to escape punishment with His Highness Duke of Qin's attitude!
"Your Highness, this old official will go to the palace right now and ask His Majesty to transfer troops," General Mu's face was earnest. Searching the mountains required men and horses, so transferring troops was the most effective method.
But Long Fei Ye refused. "No need. We can't alarm anyone else about this!"
Leaving aside the fact that Emperor Tianhui wouldn't agree, Long Fei Ye didn't want to publicize the matter even if he did. This involved the Northern Li spies, and now the Han Family was a suspect. Once the matter was made public, it'd affect his investigation and wouldn't benefit Han Yunxi in the slightest.
A complicated look flitted past Long Fei Ye's eyes before he said coldly, "Chu Xifeng, send out all of the Solitary Enclosure's men and horses to secretly search the mountains for your lordship. Also, take the two hostages from the prison cells to the Celestial Fragrance Teashop!"
Was His Highness Duke of Qin preparing to exchange hostages?
Now General Mu was even more incredulous. After all, His Highness Duke of Qin had never released any of his captives. But this time, he'd made an exception for the sake of a woman!
Actually, Han Yunxi's kidnapping was the perfect opportunity for His Highness Duke of Qin to get rid of this Qin Wangfei. Moreover, it involved the Northern Li spies, so Emperor Tianhui and the empress dowager didn't dare to make things difficult for him.
Leaving aside General Mu, even Chu Xifeng couldn't understand. But faced with his master in a fit of anger, he didn't dare to ask a single question. He immediately obeyed his orders and left.
Long Fei Ye looked icily at the Celestial Fragrance Teashop's servants. "Tell your owner that your lordship wants to see him!"
