Han Yunxi's thin and frail body stood on the frozen ground, shocking everyone's hearts. That smear of cinnabar red seemed to be the only red in the snow, dazzling and unforgettable.
This smear of red fell into Long Fei Ye's deep black eyes and scattered into a bloody mess, dyeing his cold eyes red.
Everyone was looking at Han Yunxi and no one noticed that Long Fei Ye's hand was already on his sword.
Jun Yi Xie also didn't notice. He was dumbstruck, he never thought that Han Yunxi could use this method to prove her innocence!
Wasn't this woman married to Long Fei Ye for more than a year?
She actually …
What was the relationship between her and Long Fei Ye? Wasn't this woman Long Fei Ye's woman? Wasn't this Long Fei Ye's only weakness? Could it be that he had made a mistake in this bet?
The surrounding gazes were filled with shock, ridicule, sympathy and pity. However, no matter what others thought, Han Yunxi was indifferent.
Under everyone's gaze, she unhurriedly rolled down her sleeves and put on her fur robe, her movements elegant and noble.
"Jun Yi Xie, there's only one bottle of antidote for the poison in your body and I threw it away long ago. But there's another way to detoxify the poison, do you want to know? "Han Yunxi asked with a sneer.
"What?" Wasn't everything Jun Yi Xie did to detoxify the poison?
"Cripple your own arm." Han Yunxi laughed impudently, carefree and uninhibited, as if the injury just now had never happened.
Jun Yi Xie then realized that he had been fooled and he cursed, "Slut!"
Just at this moment, a "Clang!" sound was heard. The sound of a sword whistling suddenly sounded, it was Long Fei Ye's sword ringing angrily!
It seemed to have sensed its master's monstrous anger as it trembled and was about to fly out of its scabbard.
At this moment, the crowd realized that Long Fei Ye had already grasped his sword and they couldn't help but gasp in shock!
Long Fei Ye was going to use force!
Before anyone could react, another "Clang!" sound was heard as Long Fei Ye raised his sword and pointed it at Jun Yi Xie!
Reality proved that His Highness Duke of Qin's calmness had its limits.
"Your Highness …" Baili Mingxiang exclaimed. Who would've thought that such a cold man would one day become angry over a woman?
"Your Highness, please reconsider!" General Baili rushed over.
Martial arts were forbidden on Fishery Island. Once His Highness used force, all their efforts would be in vain! Now Jun Yixie would truly be the fisherman who reaped the benefits!
Long Feiye turned a deaf ear to his words and pointed his sword at Jun Yixie. His cold eyes flashed with ruthless rage as the blade clattered against each other, ready to start a massacre at any moment.
Wasn't this exactly what Jun Yi Xie wanted?
Although Han Yunxi had proven her innocence and Long Feiye's lies, none of that was important anymore. Because he'd succeeded in igniting Long Feiye's fury?
His sword was out of its scabbard. One move was all it would take for Long Fei Ye to lose everything! He had made the right bet. Han Yunxi was Long Fei Ye's Achilles' heel!
This man knew that it was a trap, but he still jumped in anyway!
Long Fei Ye gripped his sword so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand popped out. He was pouring his internal energy into the sword. He couldn't imagine what would happen if he slashed it down.
Everyone was so nervous that they stared at Long Fei Ye's sword without blinking, afraid that they would miss a single move.
However, Han Yunxi was indifferent. She was obviously standing beside Long Fei Ye, but her whole body was exuding a coldness that kept people thousands of miles away.
Jun Yixie licked his lips with a mischievous expression. Without a doubt, he was adding oil and vinegar to Long Feiye's fury.
"You're courting death!"
No matter how calm Long Fei Ye was, he couldn't control himself and thrust his sword forward.
However, almost at the same time, General Baili rushed over and hugged Long Fei Ye's sword. "Your Highness, this is a trap!"
General Baili clamped the blade of the sword tightly with both hands, and blood soon flowed down. He almost used all his strength to barely stop Long Fei Ye.
Bloody anger burned in Long Fei Ye's eyes. He knew better than anyone that this was a trap. When Jun Yi Xie jumped into the sea and swam to Yu Zhou Island, he knew that Jun Yi Xie must have wanted to take advantage of the prohibition of martial arts on Yu Zhou Island.
However, he never thought that Jun Yi Xie would provoke him with such a thing!
"Get out of my way!"
Long Fei Ye was furious, and his sword glowed brightly.
Seeing this, Baili Mingxiang was very anxious. She grabbed Long Fei Ye's sword with both hands and held it together with General Baili.
Her hands were much more delicate than General Baili's, and as soon as they touched the sword, they bled.
"Your Highness, Princess Consort is innocent. Jun Yi Xie did it on purpose. Please don't fall into his trap!"
"Your lordship will say it one last time. Get out of my way!" Long Fei Ye wasn't someone the Baili father and daughter could persuade.
Baili Mingxiang was too scared to look at him, but quickly grabbed Han Yunxi's hand. "Esteemed wangfei, please persuade His Highness! You and His Highness's efforts over the past few months can't go to waste! "
Of course Han Yunxi knew this was a trap. She also knew that once Long Fei Ye made his move, their efforts would be for naught not only in this fishing competition, but in Tianning as well.
Emperor Tianhui, all of the civil and military officials in court, and all of Tianning's citizens were waiting to see how His Highness Duke of Qin would lead the disaster victims through the winter and usher in the spring months!
Of course, none of that mattered to Han Yunxi now. She just didn't want Jun Yi Xie to get his way.
What would happen if he succeeded in making an issue out of something like this?
Looking at Long Fei Ye's cold eyes, Han Yunxi didn't know how much weight her words carried. She walked over and said, "Your Highness, please reconsider!"
But Long Fei Ye didn't even spare her a glance.
Han Yunxi's lips quirked into a self-mocking smile. Just like General Baili, she reached out to grab the edge of her sword and stop him.
Immediately, Long Fei Ye pulled his sword out of General Baili's hand and avoided Han Yunxi's.
He didn't say a word, but gave Han Yunxi a vicious glare. Just like before, his eyes were filled with anger and questioning. Unfortunately, Han Yunxi avoided his gaze and missed it.
Sheathing his sword, Long Fei Ye had been persuaded to stop. But that didn't mean he'd let Jun Yi Xie go.
General Baili and the rest exhaled in relief. At least His Highness was still calm.
Seeing this, Jun Yi Xie was about to provoke him again when Long Fei Ye issued a Cold order. "General Baili, pass on my orders. Have the entire navy surround Fishery Island. Anyone who dares to take Jun Yi Xie away will be killed without mercy!"
Everyone present was stunned by his words!
Who said Long Fei Ye was calm? He's gone mad! He wants to use the entire Tianning Navy to trap a single Jun Yi Xie?
General Baili stood rooted to the spot, almost losing his mind. He'd spent more than a decade raising the Tianning Navy, along with large sums of silver from Tianning's national coffers. He'd never used them before.
But this was his first time mobilizing them, and he wanted them to surround an island?
"Why aren't you going yet?!" Long Fei Ye was very fierce.
"This general obeys!" General Baili didn't have time to think. He left immediately.
They'd brought along a fleet of ships with them this time. Originally, they were supposed to escort the fish back to Tianning for disaster relief. General Baili first used the ships to guard the island, then sent a messenger hawk back with orders to mobilize all of the navy to guard the island. A small team was also assigned to transport the fish.
Jun Yi Xie saw that things weren't going well, so he turned and headed for the beach.
Fishery Island's martial arts rules didn't just restrict Long Fei Ye, but him as well.
If Long Fei Ye was going to play like this, he only had one option left: leave immediately.
Long Fei Ye's lips curved into a cold smile as he watched Jun Yi Xie's retreating figure. He used his lightness techniques to shoot out like an arrow and quickly caught up to Jun Yi Xie. Their martial arts skills were on par with each other, and their speeds were about the same. Both of them flew towards the beach.
Han Yunxi, Baili Mingxiang, Ouyang Ningnuo, and the rest were chasing after them.
Long Fei Ye and Jun Yi Xie arrived at the beach at almost the same time. Jun Yi Xie didn't hesitate to run across the water and jump onto his ship.
He couldn't use martial arts on Fishery Island, so he'd only be trapped to death. But he could use martial arts on the ship, so he still had hope.
Jun Yi Xie readied himself for a duel with poison in hand. Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye didn't chase after the ship. Instead, he hovered above the sea and drew his sword, pointing it at the sky as it exploded with dazzling sword light. For a moment, wind and clouds gathered as the sword whistled through the air!
Jun Yi Xie knew that things weren't looking good. He was about to raise his sword to block when Long Fei Ye's sword slashed down with a rainbow of sword qi.
"Boom!" There was a loud crash as a large hole was blasted into the tall ship. Seawater immediately poured into the hole, causing the ship to tilt.
Han Yunxi and the rest were just about to rush over when they saw the tilting ship. They were all dumbfounded.
His Highness Duke of Qin was truly angry. The consequences would be dire.
Jun Yi Xie stood on the tilted ship's bow, dumbfounded. How was he supposed to get back if the ship was destroyed?
Jun Yi Xie was enraged when he saw Ouyang Ningnuo approach. "Ouyang Ningnuo, is this the face Long Fei Ye gave your merchant guild?"
Before, when Long Feiye was about to destroy the ship, Ouyang Ningnuo had stepped forward to save face and stop him.
Ouyang Ningnuo had been engrossed in watching the battle. He jumped in fright when Jun Yi Xie shouted at him. He hurriedly replied, "Your Highness Duke of Kang, that's your ship. It has nothing to do with me!"
They had been allies just a moment ago, but now he was saying such things.
Han Yunxi hadn't misjudged him. This guy really was shameless. Not only to them, but to Jun Yi Xie as well.
Ouyang Ningnuo was a businessman who prioritized profit above all else. He would never do a losing deal!
Although the horse deal at the border of Northern Li was important, he couldn't afford to offend His Highness Duke of Qin.
If he'd known that Jun Yi Xie would resort to such underhanded means, he would never have cooperated with Jun Yi Xie.
"Ouyang Ningnuo!" Jun Yi Xie was about to explode.
Long Fei Ye didn't waste his breath. He raised his sword a second time. A vicious glint flashed across Jun Yi Xie's eyes. Sword in hand, he flew toward General Baili's ship.
Unexpectedly, General Baili gave the order. All the archers on the ship fired their arrows at once, aiming at Jun Yi Xie.
No matter how strong an expert was, how could he withstand an army of archers?
Jun Yi Xie only had one path left, and that was to return to Fishery Island, where martial arts were prohibited.
At this moment, Long Fei Ye's second strike landed squarely on the raised bow of the ship. With one strike, the bow of the ship was completely destroyed, and the entire ship was destroyed.
A king's wrath rumbled, shaking everyone's hearts.
He stood in the air, a vast fleet of warships behind him. Archers were ready to fire their arrows.
His face was as cold as ice, and his voice was frighteningly cold. "Jun Yi Xie, swim back to Northern Li if you have the guts!"
