Ye 'er?
Even Grand Concubine Yi had never called Long Fei Ye by that name.
Han Yunxi was stunned by the sudden voice. She unconsciously turned to look and saw a woman dressed in black. She was nearly 40 years old, but had a pretty face and a graceful figure. She didn't lose out to a girl in her early twenties. Add to that the lingering charm of age on her, and she exuded an indescribable charm.
At first glance, she looked like a dignified and noble lady, but a closer look revealed her shrewd and ruthless eyes.
This woman wasn't easy to deal with.
Even though Han Yunxi had already seen her, she still examined Han Yunxi without batting an eyelid. Her gaze was wanton and her aura was fierce.
Long Fei Ye saw that Han Yunxi had spaced out and immediately withdrew his palm, afraid that he'd really hurt her.
The woman saw all of this and suddenly broke into laughter. She mocked, "Ye 'er, when did you learn to have tender, protective feelings for the fairer sex?"
Long Fei Ye tightened his grip on Han Yunxi, his face expressionless. Instead of answering, he asked, "When did Aunt Ru get here? Where's Tang Li?"
Aunt?
Han Yunxi was surprised by the name, but Gu's life was at stake. She couldn't care less who this woman was.
She lowered her voice and said, "Long Fei Ye, a life is at stake. Let go!"
Long Fei Ye ignored her, his attention on Aunt Ru as she drew closer and closer.
Aunt Ru didn't answer Long Fei Ye's question, but focused on Han Yunxi. She'd long studied her from head to toe.
Even though she was staring at Han Yunxi, she asked Long Fei Ye, "I heard her poison skills are very formidable?"
Was there anyone who looked down on someone like that?
Han Yunxi could feel Aunt Ru's lofty gaze. She knew this woman had come with ill intentions, and was even more certain that she was the target.
However, she didn't have the time to accompany him!
She really did not have time to waste here. Not to mention that Gu would be eaten by the man-eating vines, even Gu Beiyue would not be able to escape.
She had to save them!
"Long Fei Ye, can we talk about it later?" Han Yunxi begged him. Her voice was so soft that Aunt Ru couldn't hear her.
Unfortunately, Long Fei Ye remained unmoved. His thoughts were all on Aunt Ru. He didn't introduce her or explain anything. He only said indifferently, "I'll come after I send her back."
After he finished speaking, he hugged Han Yunxi tightly and was about to leave when Aunt Ru stretched out an arm to stop him. Cold, she said, "Ye 'er, why are you in such a hurry?"
Han Yunxi was shocked. She dared to block Long Fei Ye's way. This woman must have a powerful background!
"It's getting late. Aunt Ru, if you don't reach the peak, you might have come in vain today."
Long Fei Ye said as he circled around Aunt Ru's arm and was about to leave. However, Aunt Ru grabbed Han Yunxi's shoulder and asked her directly, "Girl, is the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion in your hands?"
When she said this, Long Fei Ye's ugly expression instantly darkened. Before he could say anything, Han Yunxi replied, "It has nothing to do with you. Let go of me!"
Unexpectedly, Aunt Ru suddenly exerted force on her shoulder and said sternly, "Uncultured girl, take it out!"
Uncultured?
Only an elder like you is allowed to look down on me for no reason and touch me? Respect is mutual!
"It's not like it's yours. Why should I?" Han Yunxi retorted unhappily.
Aunt Ru was momentarily at a loss for words. She exerted more force on Han Yunxi's shoulder and ordered, "Take it out!"
Han Yunxi's shoulder was in so much pain! She took out a blue and white porcelain vase and casually tossed it behind her!
"What kind of lousy toy is this? I don't care!"
"Impudent!"
Aunt Ru was furious. She immediately let go of Han Yunxi and chased after her. At the same time, Long Fei Ye, who was caught off guard, also let go of her and chased after her.
Han Yunxi took advantage of this opportunity to escape, running madly in the direction they came from. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't curious about Aunt Ru's identity, but she couldn't afford to be curious now!
Gu Qishao, Gu Beiyue, nothing must happen to you two!
She ran and ran and ran with all her might. Behind her, Aunt Ru picked up the blue and white porcelain vase and her expression changed. She sneered meaningfully, "You actually dared to trick me? Very well! "
Without a doubt, that was just a similar vase and not the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion.
Han Yunxi didn't even take out the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion at the Xuan gold door, let alone now.
That thing was given to her by Long Fei Ye. She would only give it to Long Fei Ye alone.
Long Fei Ye looked at the shattered vase on the ground. No matter how terrible his mood was, he couldn't help but smile. Even he himself didn't notice the hint of a smile that flitted across his lips.
Aunt Ru glared fiercely at Long Fei Ye, then immediately chased after Han Yunxi. This time, it was Long Fei Ye who stopped her. "Aunt Ru, if there's anything, let's talk about it when we get back."
Aunt Ru raised an eyebrow and coldly snorted, "What is it? Tang Li confessed everything. What right does a woman who can't be used by you have to know about the existence of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion? "
What did that bastard Tang Li confess?
About the Shadow Clan? Or something else?
Long Fei Ye didn't explain much since he didn't know the situation. He only said, "She doesn't know what the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion is."
Unexpectedly, Aunt Ru suddenly said sternly, "Anyone who knows the words' Perplexing Butterfly Illusion 'deserves to die!"
Saying this, she slapped Long Fei Ye's hand away. Long Fei Ye tried to stop her again, but he didn't waste any more words. His palm moved like it was doing Tai Chi, gently pushing Aunt Ru away. It looked like a gentle push, but the force behind it caused Aunt Ru to stagger a few steps and almost fall.
By the time Aunt Ru steadied herself, Long Fei Ye had already chased after Han Yunxi.
"Ye 'er, you actually dared to push me for a useless woman?" Aunt Ru's face was full of shock. Her sharp eyes darkened as she immediately chased after him.
After Han Yunxi ran back to her original spot, she was shocked by the scene in front of her!
Gu and Gu Beiyue were nowhere to be seen. She also didn't see the Man-eating Vines that were madly baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. All she saw were two giant Man-eating Vines with their mouths wide open — or more accurately, two toothless mouths. They were lying on the ground, opening and closing. No matter how she looked at it, it was a comical sight.
Where were they? Where were the vines? Where were the teeth?
What exactly happened here?
"Gu! Gu Beiyue! "Han Yunxi shouted.
Eh … Master's voice.
Lil Thing, who was hiding at the side and eating, immediately jumped up from the grass and squeaked twice, as if to say, "Master, I'm here!"
"Lil Thing!"
Han Yunxi was very surprised. She hurriedly ran over, but was immediately shocked again. She saw Lil Thing sitting on a pile of dead Man-eating Vines. One of the Man-eating Vines' fangs was in each hand, and it was eating with crunching sounds.
Lil Thing's expression of enjoyment was not only not disgusting, it was extremely cute.
It had to be said that Lil Thing was even more knowledgeable than the detoxification system. Man-eating Vines were not poisonous, but their fangs were an important ingredient in making poison. Furthermore, the fangs of Man-eating Vines were not bones, but plants with high hardness.
Han Yunxi heaved a sigh of relief. "Where are Gu Beiyue and Gu?"
If Lil Thing could eat so leisurely here, it meant that the two guys were fine. Lil Thing had saved them.
Lil Thing was busy eating and ignored Han Yunxi. Han Yunxi picked it up and asked again, "Where are they?"
Lil Thing looked up, but unexpectedly, it suddenly broke free from Han Yunxi's hand and burrowed into the medical bag, as if it was frightened by something. It even threw away the half-eaten fangs of the Man-eating Vines.
"What's wrong?"
Han Yunxi was puzzled. Soon, Long Fei Ye's fierce voice came from behind. "Han Yunxi!"
Han Yunxi was shocked and quickly let go of the hand that was pressing on the medical bag. She calmed down and looked back.
"Where are Gu Beiyue and Gu?" Long Fei Ye was such a powerful person. He could tell that something was wrong with this place with a simple sweep of his eyes, especially that toothless Man-eating Vines.
Han Yunxi didn't answer him. She pulled out the real Perplexing Butterfly Illusion from her sleeve and handed it over. "Here."
Long Fei Ye stared at the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion, his hands gradually clenching into fists. It was obvious that he was furious.
This woman didn't know what was good for her!
Seeing that Long Fei Ye didn't move, Han Yunxi stepped forward and was about to shove the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion into his hands. Right at this moment, a sharp hidden needle suddenly appeared from the side with irresistible force.
Long Fei Ye pulled Han Yunxi into his arms and hugged her tightly before turning around to leave.
"Ye 'er, stop right there!" Aunt Ru shouted as she chased after them.
Long Fei Ye turned a deaf ear and didn't even look back. Aunt Ru was furious. She sent out several hidden weapons, including hidden needles, hidden darts, small throwing knives, and all sorts of other hidden weapons.
Long Fei Ye kept dodging. In a situation where he didn't retaliate, he was actually having trouble holding his own. He could only choose the path up the mountain. There were many trees on the path up the mountain, so hidden weapons wouldn't be as effective.
Han Yunxi was tightly protected in his arms. She wanted to turn around several times to take a look, but Long Fei Ye was hugging her too tightly. She couldn't move at all.
She always thought that she had enough poisonous needles on her body. She didn't expect that someone would be able to hide so many hidden weapons. Moreover, it wasn't just one type, but all sorts of hidden weapons.
She always thought that Tang Li's hidden weapon techniques were powerful enough. She didn't expect this woman to be so powerful. She forced Long Fei Ye to choose the path up the mountain.
She must be from the Tang Sect.
Aunt Ru?
Could she be Long Fei Ye's aunt? His birth mother's sister?
Thinking up to here, Han Yunxi gave a start and grew inexplicably nervous. At the same time, she wanted to turn around to take a look.
One chased, one ran, while the other chased. An endless stream of hidden weapons rained down. Fortunately, this was Long Feiye. Anyone else would've been injured by such a high-intensity attack, but Long Feiye remained unscathed.
Finally, Aunt Ru lost her temper and said sternly, "Feiye, stop right there. Do you hear me?"
Long Fei Ye ignored her and kept going up the mountain. Before they knew it, they'd already reached the top of the mountain.
The top of this mountain was different from other mountain peaks. Most mountain peaks were sharp, and only a small hill was left at the top. However, this mountain peak was flat. It was a dense forest, with tall trees densely standing. Only one or two people could pass between the trees. The entire forest was like a maze, and once you entered, you would not be able to find your way.
Long Fei Ye stopped outside the woodland, hesitating to enter.
Meanwhile, Han Yunxi was immersed in the detox system, which kept reminding her of the presence of highly corrosive poisons nearby.
Most likely, Long Fei Ye had asked her to come with him to the poison grounds because he wanted to find poisonous plants at the top of the mountain. Han Yunxi used the detox system to find the source of the poison. Since we're already here, I might as well tell him.
But before Han Yunxi could determine the direction, Aunt Ru caught up to them.
