It wasn't only Gu Qishao who sensed the snapping of the strands, but Han Yunxi as well.
How could this be?
Could it be …
"Hehe, the poisonous mosquitoes are the natural enemies of this spider silk! Every poison has its own nemesis. "
Gu Qishao chuckled and hugged Han Yunxi tightly. Then he turned around in the midst of the mosquito swarm and scattered some sort of poison. In a flash, all of the mosquitoes fled in panic, many of them dying and crashing to the ground.
Han Yunxi's detoxification system beeped incessantly. Some reminded her of the poisonous mosquitoes, some reminded her of the poison of the spider darts, and some reminded her that the thing Gu scattered was poisonous.
Gu, the reason why this guy wasn't afraid of the poisonous mosquitoes was because he was proficient in fighting poison with poison!
Fighting poison with poison, that was quite impressive.
When the poisonous mosquitoes scattered, Gu continued to flee forward with Han Yunxi. The masked man, Tsing Yi, and the other assassins followed closely.
Darts after darts came flying again. Compared to being bitten by the poisonous mosquitoes, Gu would rather spend more effort to dodge the darts of the masked man.
As long as they could enter the forest, the darts would be obstructed and they could escape faster.
Gu's speed was very fast. Han Yunxi nestled in his arms and could hear his strong and rapid heartbeat. She couldn't imagine that such a gentle and enchanting man's heartbeat could be so masculine.
Gu's speed was already fast enough. However, the masked man was also terrifyingly fast.
If they hadn't taken the initiative and escaped quickly, they would have been caught.
Just as Gu was about to enter the forest, a dart suddenly flew past him and hit a tree trunk. It actually bounced back.
What a powerful darting technique!
This time, Gu hesitated for a moment and dodged sideways.
One must know that in a battle between experts, victory or defeat was often due to a moment of carelessness. It wasn't a matter of strength.
While Gu Qishao was lost in thought, the masked man chased after him and grabbed Han Yunxi's arm.
Gu Qishao tightened his grip on Han Yunxi's waist and struck out with a palm. The masked man held onto Han Yunxi with one hand while raising his other to block.
Han Yunxi hit the masked man's hand with all her might. She even bit down and released the poison. However, the poison didn't seem to have any effect on the masked man.
God knows if he was a poison human, poison corpse, or poison parasite!
Han Yunxi didn't have time to think about this problem. Her strength was obviously not as great as the masked man. She had an idea and pulled out her dagger to stab, but Qing Yi's long sword came slashing from the side. She was so scared that she immediately let go of her hand, and Qing Yi almost cut off her hand.
So terrifying!
The green-robed and black-robed assassins arrived one after another, leaving Gu Qishao once again outnumbered.
He held onto Han Yunxi tightly with one hand and dealt with the masked man with the other. He couldn't care about Tsing Yi and the assassins.
Tsing Yi's eyes flashed with malice. She turned her sword and stabbed towards Gu's eyes!
Gu and the masked man were in a deadlock. Their strength was balanced. If he wanted to escape and dodge Tsing Yi's long sword, Gu could only let go of Han Yunxi.
But as soon as he let go, Han Yunxi would fall into the masked man's hands. He'd only managed to snatch her away by a fluke, so it was impossible for him to snatch her away from the masked man again when he was outnumbered.
What should he do?
Tsing Yi's long sword was nearing!
However, even at this juncture, Gu was still hesitating.
Suddenly, Han Yunxi shouted, "Let go!" Then she twisted her body and broke free from Gu's hand and kicked him away.
Just like that, Gu retreated as Tsing Yi's long sword pierced past his eyes. Meanwhile, Han Yunxi was pulled away by the masked man.
Everything seemed to be over …
But at the same time, there was a sharp sound of something breaking through the air. Whoosh …
A sharp arrow pierced through the air and shot towards the masked man's arm.
The arrow seemed to contain enough power to split the heavens and earth. It even caused the air around it to tremble violently.
The arrow was as fast as lightning falling from the sky. Like a hot knife through butter, it could topple mountains and overturn seas. It was unstoppable!
No one had expected this to happen. In a moment of desperation, the masked man decisively withdrew his hand. The sharp arrow brushed past the masked man's sleeve. Even if it didn't hit its target, the masked man was still repelled by the power contained in the arrow.
"Fine iron crossbow arrow!" Tsing Yi cried out in alarm.
Fine iron was the world's strongest metal. Only Tianning's imperial family possessed it, while the fine iron crossbow arrows were exclusive to Tianning's Duke of Qin!
Long Fei Ye had come!
Han Yunxi was free of her bindings and plummeted downwards. But when she heard this voice, she instinctively turned her head to look.
She saw a tall, proud figure descend from the skies to land behind her. His aura was as noble as a god's, but his face was as calm as a demon's. One hand was behind his back while the other held a crossbow, aiming at the masked man.
It's him!
Long Fei Ye!
He's come!
He hadn't given up on her, nor had he disappointed her. He'd chased after the poison mosquito swarm.
At this moment, Han Yunxi forgot about her own predicament. Even though she was plummeting, her heart was no longer afraid. Instead, she was inexplicably excited. It was as if this fellow's appearance meant she was safe.
"Long Fei Ye!"
The masked man breathed a sigh of relief. He'd been afraid of Long Fei Ye following them from behind, so he'd stepped forward to take Han Yunxi away. Who knew that Gu would interfere and delay things?
He should've thought of this earlier. Once the poison mosquito swarm arrived, Long Fei Ye would also arrive.
At this moment, the masked man was the closest to Han Yunxi. His ferocious eyes sunk as he ignored the warning of Long Fei Ye's fine iron crossbow and instantly rushed towards Han Yunxi.
"Swoosh … …"
Another sharp sound pierced through the air. That fine iron crossbow arrow seemed to be able to pierce through heaven and earth as it flew down majestically.
God knows how much internal energy Long Fei Ye had poured into this arrow. Everyone was shocked. But the masked man didn't give up. He chased after Han Yunxi while paying attention to the arrow. He was prepared to dodge it at any time.
But what was even more unexpected was that once the fine iron crossbow arrow was shot, Long Fei Ye also flew down. His face was as cold as a god's.
Seeing this, the masked man's eyes turned cold as he shot out a hidden dart!
But he shot out a few more dart. His aim wasn't to hit Long Fei Ye but to poison him.
One must know that Long Fei Ye's martial arts were exceptionally strong but he didn't understand poison. Poison was his weak spot!
"It's poisonous!"
Han Yunxi cried out in alarm. At this moment, she was only three meters away from the ground. She could fall and shatter into pieces at any moment.
The sharp arrow was right in front of the masked man. He had no choice but to dodge and missed the opportunity to grab Han Yunxi's hand. But the powder that he had scattered scattered around Han Yunxi's surroundings.
If he couldn't get it, he'd rather destroy it than let Long Fei Ye get it!
If Long Fei Ye didn't stop and continued to fly down, he would definitely be poisoned.
But who knew that Long Fei Ye didn't care about the poison in the air and flew down at a low altitude.
Just as Han Yunxi was about to hit the ground, a strong and powerful arm scooped her up and pulled her into an embrace. Following that, his body spun and his feet landed firmly on the ground.
That movement was indescribably elegant. Han Yunxi looked at his perfect and cold side profile. She actually hoped that this dangerous moment would never pass.
Seeing that Long Fei Ye didn't care about the poison in the air and saved someone, the masked man was shocked. Could it be that Long Fei Ye wasn't afraid of the poison?
At that moment, he couldn't care so much and shouted, "Retreat!"
If Long Fei Ye didn't care about the poison, everyone present wouldn't be his match even if they worked together.
They had to retreat!
At this moment, Gu suddenly attacked Qing Yi. Seeing this, the masked man's figure flashed, pulled apart Qing Yi and threw a hidden dart at Gu.
With the previous example, Gu was still somewhat afraid of this hidden dart. He dodged to the side several times. When he was about to give chase, the masked man had already taken Qing Yi and disappeared into the forest at the side.
Gu didn't stay idle. With a wave of his long whip, he stopped the remaining assassins. At this moment, Mu Qingwu and Guard Shangguan caught up and quickly joined in.
Long Fei Ye didn't give chase. His gaze was locked on the masked man in the distance. When he couldn't see the man's back, his brows suddenly tightened and he spat out a mouthful of black blood.
The masked man's poison powder didn't have any effect on Gu and Han Yunxi. Han Yunxi was a poison master and didn't need to detoxify the poison immediately. Her immunity was also better than others, so the poison would take a longer time to act up. Gu was an expert in fighting poison with poison, so the poison powder probably wouldn't have any effect on him.
However, Long Fei Ye was different. In just a short while, the poison had already acted up.
The masked man had scattered too many poisons. Han Yunxi couldn't tell what kind of poison it was.
"Let go of me, I'll quickly check." She said hurriedly. Panic was written all over her face, but she didn't even notice it.
Long Fei Ye glanced at her flustered little face and didn't say much. He let go of her.
Han Yunxi turned to face Long Fei Ye and immediately activated the detoxification system. This scan indicated that there were three types of poisons.
That damned masked man. Could it be that the poisons in his darts were all different?
Seeing the bloodstains on Long Fei Ye's lips, Han Yunxi didn't think much of it. She stood on her tiptoes and reached out her hand.
Long Fei Ye pulled her back and said unhappily, "What are you doing?"
He was very obsessed with cleanliness. Since he was young, he hated other people touching him, especially his face.
"After collecting a blood sample for analysis, I'll be able to determine which of the three poisons you have." Han Yunxi was still anxious and didn't think too much about it.
Long Fei Ye hesitated for a moment. He lowered his eyes and didn't look at her, but he still slowly let go of her hand.
Han Yunxi's pale little face was filled with seriousness. She stood on her tiptoes again and reached out her index finger to gently touch the corner of Long Fei Ye's mouth. She gently wiped away some of the bloodstains. As if it wasn't enough, she gently wiped a few more times.
It was a delicate touch. Her fingertips accidentally touched his thin lips. It was soft and itchy. There was an indescribable strange feeling.
Long Fei Ye unconsciously looked up at her. However, Han Yunxi's thoughts were all on the poison in Long Fei Ye's body. How could she know how intimate this action was?
She was still as serious as ever. After collecting enough blood, she immediately let go.
When she let go, Long Fei Ye felt as if he had suddenly lost something. There was an indescribable sense of loss.
Damn it. He had always been obsessed with cleanliness. He was even more repulsed by the touch of women. But facing this woman, after he lost his psychological resistance, he actually felt unsatisfied. It wasn't enough! Want to continue?
This feeling of losing control made Long Fei Ye feel repulsed. He avoided her gaze and turned to look at Gu.
Han Yunxi didn't know what Long Fei Ye was thinking. Once she collected the blood sample, she immediately squatted on the ground and took out the medical bag she carried with her …
