Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan chased him to the edge of the cliff. Immediately, they saw a dense mass of black shadows in the forest in the north.
It was like a black cloud.
What was going on?
The two of them were as confused as monks. Seeing His Highness Duke of Qin's figure gradually disappear into the distance, the two of them hesitated. Should they chase or not?
Unexpectedly, just as they were hesitating, the large oval-shaped black cloud in the north suddenly changed. It gradually elongated into a long strip, and showed signs of spreading towards the north.
What was going on?
Could it be that this poisonous miasma could change its shape? Even if it changed shape because of the wind, it couldn't change so quickly and so neatly?
Moreover, the wind was blowing from the north.
Strange.
"Young General, is … is this really poisonous miasma?" Guard Shangguan felt that something was wrong no matter how he looked at it.
Mu Qingwu stared closely at the black mist, only to see that the black mist was actually moving. From afar, it looked like a black satin under the sunlight, floating towards the north. Moreover, it was moving faster and faster!
Even the stupidest person could tell that this was definitely not poisonous miasma!
"Chase!"
Mu Qingwu said as he leaped down and chased after it. Guard Shangguan couldn't care less and followed closely behind.
At this moment, Long Fei Ye was very close to the strip-shaped mosquito swarm.
He landed on a tree nearby and saw clearly that the poisonous mosquitoes seemed to be fighting for something in the air. As they fought, they fought to be the first to fly forward.
If he chased in this direction, would he be able to catch up to Han Yunxi?
Long Fei Ye didn't chase to the front. He followed behind the poisonous mosquito swarm from beginning to end. He knew that as long as he followed the swarm, he wouldn't lose sight of the person. Mosquitoes' sense of smell was much more sensitive than a human's.
The poisonous mosquito swarm wasn't fast, so it wasn't difficult to keep up with them.
About a mile ahead of the poisonous mosquito swarm, Qing Yi and Han Yunxi were running at full speed. The distance was a little far, and the poisonous mosquito swarm was silent. They did not notice anything strange behind them.
First of all, she had to escape with all her might to ensure her safety. Second of all, His Highness had said to bring this woman to their hidden headquarters in Tianning Country. As long as she took care of the matter, she could go back. She was also a spy. Her identity was sensitive and she carried a heavy responsibility. If she left for too long, it would arouse suspicion.
Qing Yi's speed was unprecedentedly fast. However, not far behind her, a red shadow, like a sharp arrow, scuttled through the grass, following closely behind.
After running for an unknown amount of time, the red figure suddenly stopped and hid behind a large tree.
Who else could this person be other than Gu?
Seeing that Qing Yi and the others had gone far away, he then stood up and raised his head to sniff the air. Then, he stretched out his hand and stopped against the wind for a moment.
He put down his hand and sniffed his palm. He was stunned at first, but then he smiled.
"Poison lass … you're so capable!"
When those long and narrow eyes smiled, they were as beautiful as they could be. He looked back and licked his lips playfully. Then he turned and immediately chased after them.
The poisonous mosquitoes and Qing Yi's group were separated by two large mountains. The mosquitoes chased while fighting for the medicinal powder in the air, so their speed was naturally not very fast. Moreover, Qing Yi's speed was very fast. By the next morning, the poisonous mosquitoes still had not caught up to the source of the medicinal powder, Han Yunxi's hand.
There was even a mountain between them.
At this time, Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan had already caught up to Long Fei Ye.
"Your Highness, what's going on?" Mu Qingwu asked seriously. He had a faint guess but didn't dare to confirm it.
When Long Fei Ye explained the situation, Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan were both dumbfounded.
"That means the assassin is right in front. Your Highness, why aren't we chasing?" Guard Shangguan was very excited.
"This prince is very curious about where they want to take Han Yunxi."
Long Fei Ye was very interested and not in a hurry. If he wanted to chase, he would have already saved Han Yunxi by now, right? If he didn't chase, he would be casting a long line to catch a big fish.
When he said this, Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan immediately understood. However, Guard Shangguan was very puzzled. If His Highness Duke of Qin was really worried about esteemed wangfei, his first reaction would be to save her, right?
But now, he was undoubtedly using esteemed wangfei as bait to directly attack the thieves' lair. If things went wrong, the bandits might even kill the hostage!
Seeing His Highness Duke of Qin's cold and resolute expression, Guard Shangguan was very sure that Mu Qingwu had made a mistake yesterday.
Sacrificing a single Han Yunxi to uncover a nest of thieves was killing two birds with one stone for His Highness Duke of Qin. It was the best of both worlds. If Han Yunxi sacrificed herself in the line of duty, the Duke of Qin's estate would still have face.
Since His Highness Duke of Qin had already said this, Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan didn't dare to urge him and could only follow closely behind.
Tsing Yi and the others were in front, Gu was behind, the poisonous mosquito swarm was behind, and Long Fei Ye was at the back. This pursuit was like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Just who would become the oriole in the end?
Time flowed by and soon, a few days had passed. As they got closer and closer, the amount of Mosquito Coil powder in the air also increased and the speed of the poisonous mosquito swarm gradually slowed down.
Early this morning, Han Yunxi decisively stopped releasing the Mosquito Coil powder.
Tsing Yi hadn't said a word along the way, but Han Yunxi could feel that they were about to reach their destination.
She had attracted such a large poisonous mosquito swarm behind them for so many days. Could it be that no one had discovered the abnormality in the mountain forest?
Or could it be that after the poisonous mosquito swarm exploded yesterday, the people searching the mountain all retreated and not a single one was left behind. So in the wilderness, no one had discovered the newly gathered poisonous mosquito swarm?
Even if Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan were negligent, Long Fei Ye wouldn't give up so quickly. He should have thought that she had a way to make use of the poisonous mosquito swarm!
Even if he didn't think of it, with his personality, he wouldn't retreat at the first obstacle, right?
Or, that guy really didn't come?
However, even if that guy really didn't come, the large number of poisonous mosquito swarm in the mountain forest had already dispersed. Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan should have sent people into the mountain to search a long time ago!
Looking at the time, how could they have discovered the moving poisonous mosquito swarm by now?
Why was it that after so many days, there was no movement behind them at all?
Could it be … that Mu Qingwu and the others had given up on the pursuit?
Qin Wangfei being kidnapped was a big deal. Who could make Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan give up on the pursuit? Only Long Fei Ye.
He didn't come himself. He didn't even care about her anymore. Was he using this opportunity to kill her?
Thinking of this, Han Yunxi's originally spirited eyes gradually dimmed. She was stunned for a long, long time before the corners of her lips pulled up into a self-mocking smile.
Long Fei Ye, on what basis did he come? On what basis did he save her?
On such a cold day, he could just sit by the stove in the greenhouse and patiently wait for this bunch of robbers to come knocking on his door.
Or, he could just let the robbers kill the hostage and not be threatened by the robbers.
The Empress Dowager appointed the marriage and the Emperor forced the marriage. If there wasn't a very good reason, he couldn't divorce his wife. Even if she died, the Duke of Qin's Manor had to give a reason that could convince everyone.
This time, wasn't it the best time?
Right at this time, Qing Yi suddenly landed on the ground without any warning. Han Yunxi's foot landed heavily on the ground. Her right foot that hadn't recovered yet was hit like this. The sudden pain in her ankle caused her nerves to tense up.
With this pain, Han Yunxi's self-mocking smile turned into a light laugh. That guy had just rubbed her foot a few times. How could she forget her awkward status and treat herself as someone important?
What Nan Shan, what Nan Shan Red?
"What are you laughing at?" Qing Yi asked cautiously.
Han Yunxi glanced at her. Her smile turned cold and she didn't answer.
This woman's smile was filled with determination and a ruthlessness that even men couldn't compare to. It made Qing Yi fearful for no reason. She grabbed Han Yunxi's collar, "What are you laughing at?"
Qing Yi, after being silent for so many days, finally spoke.
Han Yunxi looked at her Coldly. The smile on her lips deepened, but she didn't speak.
Qing Yi was even more anxious. She grabbed her collar and fiercely pushed, "Speak, what are you laughing at?"
Who knew that at this time, a sharp and gloomy voice suddenly came from behind, "Qing Yi, you stupid woman. You're being followed!"
Qing Yi was stunned. She immediately turned her head to look. She saw that a black clothed man had appeared behind her. His figure was tall and stalwart. His wide black cloak fluttered in the wind. He wore a green mask with fangs on his face. Only his mouth was exposed. His gaze was so fierce that it was enough to make people ignore his terrifying mask and only focus on his eyes.
"Lord!" Qing Yi blurted out.
Lord!
Han Yunxi's heart jumped. She knew that the masked black clothed man in front of her must be the leader of the Northern Li Country's spies. He was also the poison master that she had always been curious about.
Suddenly, the masked black clothed man approached. His mysterious black, fiendish eyes stared straight at Han Yunxi. Han Yunxi was shocked. She subconsciously wanted to retreat. Only then did she realize that she was restrained by Qing Yi and couldn't move.
"You're the one who released the mosquito coils, right?" The black clothed man asked. His voice was so low that it sounded like it came from the depths of hell.
Han Yunxi couldn't help but shiver. However, although she was afraid, she was more concerned about the words he just said. He said that Qing Yi was being followed?
Could it be that someone really chased after the poisonous mosquito swarm?
Who could it be?
Seeing that Han Yunxi didn't answer, the masked black clothed man suddenly lifted her chin. That strength wasn't at all tender and protective of the fairer sex. Han Yunxi only felt that her chin was about to break.
"Answer this lord's question!" His voice was filled with killing intent. Qing Yi at the side was scared.
Who knew, Han Yunxi fiercely tilted her chin and said coldly, "So what if I am?"
The masked black clothed man's hand was clearly a bit stiff. He was just about to get angry. Who knew, Han Yunxi said Coldly, "The contest between you and Long Fei Ye is based on your own ability. Kidnapping a weak woman like me to threaten others, aren't you ashamed?"
"How dare you!" Qing Yi shouted angrily and raised her hand to slap. No one had ever dared to be so impudent to His Honor.
However, the masked black clothed man casually flung Qing Yi away and said coldly, "Useless thing, you can get lost."
As he said, he pulled with his big hand and actually forcibly pulled Han Yunxi from Qing Yi's hand into his embrace. Han Yunxi's face heavily hit his chest. Her facial features were in so much pain that she wanted to cry.
This embrace was filled with a domineering masculine aura. It was so unfamiliar that it was scary. Han Yunxi angrily raised her head and roared, "Let go of me!"
However, the masked black clothed man smiled Coldly, "Han Yunxi, you're mistaken. This lord didn't intend to threaten Long Fei Ye by kidnapping you. This lord … only wants you that's all!"
Only wants me that's all?
She didn't know what he meant by this sentence. However, from his pair of eyes that were as dark as midnight, Han Yunxi clearly saw a strong possessiveness.
She was really scared!
