In the crater, after the flesh-eating rats dispersed, Gu immediately rushed out. He had completely forgotten about Mu Ling'er.
He searched high and low for Han Yunxi but couldn't find her. Helplessly, he returned to the medical clinic and bumped into the white-clothed man who was about to leave.
Seeing the white-clothed man, Gu naturally wouldn't let him go. He had been chasing him since last night.
In order to cover for Xi Yubo, the injured white-clothed man was caught up again.
"Seriously injured? Is the poisonous beast in your hands? "Gu raised his eyebrows and asked.
He didn't know about Han Yunxi's situation. Seeing that this guy was covered in blood and his face was as pale as paper, he was obviously seriously injured. After the Xuan gold door opened, he disappeared. Could the disappearance of the poisonous beast be related to him?
"If it was, do you think you could still be alive?"
The white-clothed man smiled. Due to his gentle temperament, he didn't seem to be anxious even when Gu caught up with him.
"Then how did you get injured?" Gu was very curious. It wasn't easy to injure someone from the Shadow Clan. Long Fei Ye was with him. Jun Yi Xie couldn't have done it even if he was poisoned.
"You and I have no enmity. Why are you so entangled?" the white-clothed man asked indifferently.
As soon as he said this, Gu sneered, "Hehe, who says we have no enmity!"
If it weren't for the fake map, he and Mu Ling'er would have arrived at the secret room long ago and wouldn't have fallen into the snake cave. He wasn't afraid of being poisoned or bitten by snakes, but he still had to put on an act in front of Mu Ling'er.
"Did you steal the map of the crater?" Gu asked coldly.
The white-clothed man calmly shook his head, "I didn't steal it."
"It was you!" Gu was very sure. Without the map, how could he have led the way so smoothly?
The white-clothed man still shook his head, "I just took a look and burned it. I really didn't steal it."
Gu was stunned at first, then exploded, "You!"
He didn't draw his sword because he was used to using it. Instead, he flicked a seed at the white-clothed man.
"You're courting death!"
Other than Han Yunxi, he had never been teased like this. This guy was actually making fun of him. How hateful!
The white clothed man did not expect Gu to know this kind of hidden weapon technique. He did not have time to dodge and was shot in the shoulder by the seed.
Pain immediately came. It was as if something was drilling into his flesh.
Could it be that this seed was poisonous?
He had the Gu technique manual, but he did not understand poison or Gu.
Very soon, he discovered that he was wrong. This seed was not poisonous because the seed actually used his flesh and blood as the soil, and suddenly sprouted from the soil, growing an unknown bud.
"Controlling Flower Technique!"
The white-robed man was shocked. He didn't expect it to be such a strange technique. No wonder he was in so much pain. The roots of the sprout were drilling into the depths of his flesh!
This sprout looked small, but it would quickly absorb his blood essence and grow rapidly, occupying his entire body. Once this plant bloomed, it meant that his body had become fertilizer for the flower.
The white-robed man did not hesitate. He took out a small knife and stabbed it into his shoulder, forcibly uprooting the sprout. His entire shoulder was bleeding profusely.
Although this method was cruel, it was the only way to deal with the Controlling Flower Technique.
"You're quite knowledgeable!"
Gu admired him, but immediately flicked a second seed. This time, the white-robed man successfully dodged it.
"I didn't expect you to be so secretive." The white-robed man was serious.
"Knowing this won't do you any good!" Gu stood on the tree. His red robes fluttered. Amidst his flirtatious and arrogant appearance, there was a hint of hostility.
He was indeed secretive. If it wasn't for his anger, if it wasn't for his last resort, he rarely revealed his true abilities.
The white-robed man did not understand. With Gu's unscrupulous and lawless character, how could he be so patient and not reveal his true abilities?
He did not continue to tangle with Gu. He turned and fled. He was injured and could not defeat Gu. However, he had a good foundation in Qinggong. He could still escape.
"Stop right there if you have the guts!" Gu immediately chased after him.
But the white-robed man's words stopped Gu in his tracks. "Rather than chasing after me, why not go to the consultation hall to check on Miss Yunxi's situation?"
The furious Gu gave a start. Even his tone of voice changed, revealing an unconcealable surprise. "Han Yunxi … she went back?"
The white-robed man smiled wordlessly and took advantage of the chance to flee.
If you liked someone, a cloudy day could turn into a sunny one in an instant. Gu did not chase after him, but turned to fly towards the medical academy.
Han Yunxi was at the consultation hall. Had she escaped from Jun Yi Xie's clutches? Or had someone saved her?
She hadn't found the poison beast's blood, so she'd be bullied at the consultation hall. He wouldn't allow that to happen.
The white-robed man didn't run far. It wasn't until Gu's figure vanished from sight that he appeared beneath the tree and muttered to himself, "Gu? Heheh … so it really was you! "
By the time Gu returned to the medical academy's consultation hall, it was already empty. Gu immediately ran to Han Yunxi's room, but didn't see Han Yunxi. Instead, he saw Luo Zuishan sitting inside, waiting for him.
"Where is she?" Gu asked anxiously.
Luo Zuishan had come here because he was certain Gu would show up. He told Gu everything that happened at the consultation hall, but before he could finish, Gu grew curious. "How did she cure the poison?"
"What?" Luo Zuishan didn't understand.
As he saw it, Han Yunxi had only gone for a follow-up examination. Hadn't the poison been cured long ago?
Gu avoided the topic. Although he hadn't caught the poison beast on this trip to the Skypit, he knew that Han Yunxi had nothing to do with the Tang Clan.
The ties between Long Fei Ye and the Tang Clan had nothing to do with him. He only cared about Han Yunxi's origins.
He had to admit that this result was very disappointing.
If Han Yunxi was a member of the Tang Clan, then she definitely wasn't the Poison Girl he was looking for. He could rest assured.
Unfortunately, after eliminating the Tang Clan, the Poison Girl's origins were a mystery. The only clue left was Madam Tianxin.
"So she left with Long Fei Ye?" Gu changed the topic.
"Probably." Luo Zuishan didn't know that much. When he came over, Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye weren't there.
Now that the matter was over, the couple naturally had to leave.
"Are you sure she's fine?" Gu asked again.
Luo Zuishan was very sure. Based on the way Han Yunxi had taught Duanmu Yao a lesson, that girl was in good shape, both physically and mentally.
Gu was relieved, and his smile was brighter than the sun. "That's good, that's good!"
Only the heavens knew how worried he was. Although he was never serious with Han Yunxi, he really couldn't bring himself to laugh when something really happened.
Gu was about to leave, but Luo Zuishan pulled him back. "Qi 'er, where did that bastard Xi Yubo learn the gu arts?"
Luo Zuishan had wanted to ask for a long time, but Gu always appeared and disappeared like a ghost. He never had a chance to speak properly.
Xi Yubo was indeed suspicious, and Jun Yi Xie's gu arts were also very curious. However, Gu didn't care at all. He hated the medical school, and he was afraid that the medical school wouldn't fall into chaos. He only regretted that he hadn't revealed the matter of the gu arts at the public consultation this time.
"Qi 'er, the gu arts have been lost for so many years …"
Before Luo Zuishan could finish speaking, Gu waved his hand and strode out the door.
Luo Zuishan was angry and anxious as he chased after him. Couldn't this brat have a proper conversation with him? He had specially come here to wait for him for another matter!
"Qi 'er, I just came from the Council of Elders. I heard that the young miss of the Mu Family went missing. She was supposed to arrive yesterday at the latest, but there's still no news!"
If Luo Zuishan hadn't mentioned it, Gu really would have forgotten about that girl. However, as soon as he thought about it, he slowly narrowed his eyes, a dangerous aura on his face. "Where is she?"
That damned girl actually repaid kindness with enmity and pushed Poison Lass out to feed the rats. Tsk tsk tsk, he really underestimated her.
"How would I know?" Luo Zuishan couldn't help rolling his eyes. He should be the one asking this question.
Where was she?
Hadn't she been following him all this time?
"Find her!" Gu was very decisive.
Luo Zuishan thought that this guy had found his conscience and knew that he had to take responsibility for a little girl's safety. Who knew that Gu's second sentence would be, "Damned girl, you better not let me find her!"
He wouldn't let off anyone who dared to hurt his Poison Lass, even if they were from the Mu Family!
Gu strode out of the room, leaving Luo Zuishan bewildered. How had Mu Ling 'er provoked him?
Mu Ling 'er liked him so much and went along with him, so how had she provoked him?
Long Fei Ye and Tang Li had already left, while Long Tianmo and Qinwang Rong were preparing to return home. Everyone thought that Han Yunxi had left, but she was still nestled in Gu Beiyue's room, lost in thought.
"Esteemed wangfei, His Highness has ordered this subordinate to escort you back to Tianning."
The guard's knocking on the door interrupted Han Yunxi's thoughts. She listlessly replied, "Withdraw, I'll go back by myself."
"Esteemed wangfei, this is His Highness's order." The guard didn't dare leave.
Unexpectedly, Han Yunxi suddenly shouted angrily, "What, his words are orders, but this wangfei's aren't?"
The guard was scared out of his wits, his face ashen. Although he hesitated, he didn't dare say another word.
But Han Yunxi actually opened the door and stared at him Coldly. "His Highness isn't going back?"
"His Highness and Young Master Tang Li left first," the guard replied foolishly.
"Oh," Han Yunxi replied faintly without asking any more questions.
"Esteemed wangfei, you should come back with this subordinate. Don't let this subordinate …"
Before the guard could finish, Han Yunxi flipped out. "Scram!"
"Yes, yes, this subordinate obeys."
The guard scrambled away. Everyone said that his mistress had a good temper, but why didn't he feel the same way?
He thought that he should hurry and report this to His Highness.
Han Yunxi returned to her room and slammed the door shut. She really hated this kind of surveillance.
She didn't want to go back to Tianning, but she didn't know where she wanted to go. She didn't want to stay in the medical academy, but now that Third Elder was protecting her, she wanted to stay for a few more days.
Han Yunxi was still in a daze when a pfft sound came from her medical pouch. She quickly opened it and saw that the little squirrel had already opened the lid of the rosemary and was about to pour it into its mouth!
