Chu Tianyin was very cunning, attacking from all directions as soon as he made his move. In this narrow space, Long Fei Ye's proficient swordsmanship and whip techniques were all restricted, unable to display their normal level, while Chu Tianyin's Barehanded Driving Arrow Technique had a huge advantage.
Several arrows were fired, and Long Fei Ye swept his whip across, sweeping all the arrows down. In this kind of disadvantageous situation, Long Fei Ye had to seize the opportunity to restrict Chu Tianyin's arrows. Chu Tianyin didn't give Long Fei Ye a chance to catch his breath, quickly launching a second round of attacks. Xiu, xiu, xiu, arrows flew over. Long Fei Ye's whip was restricted, and he could only dodge blindly.
If it was in the past, he would definitely not hesitate to use his body as a shield, even if he was hit by a few arrows, he would still get close to Chu Tianyin and directly take his life. However, Han Yunxi had just said that Chu Tianyin's arrows were highly toxic, fatal upon contact.
A poison that could make Han Yunxi give such a warning was definitely not simple. Even if Han Yunxi could detoxify the poison in time, it would still take time.
Being suppressed like this, Long Fei Ye was very sullen.
Long Fei Ye dodged the arrows while thinking of a countermeasure. However, it was very regrettable that their luck was really bad this time. If he continued to block like this, Chu Tianyin would definitely be able to see through his whip pattern, and easily find a loophole. Long Fei Ye was too used to fighting alone, ignoring Gu's existence. Even if this guy was injured, he was still a general!
Gu, who had been shot in the shoulder, was protecting Han Yunxi while squinting his long and narrow eyes to look around that black-clothed woman. He was holding a seed in his hand, looking for suitable soil.
Han Yunxi wasn't idle either. She was staring at Chu Tianyin, and the Pear Blossom Teardrop Rain in her sleeve was always in an active state. Although she couldn't kill Chu Tianyin, a few poisonous needles could still interfere with him.
Before Gu could find a suitable soil, Han Yunxi made her move. She suddenly shot out several poisonous needles, all aimed at Chu Tianyin's legs.
Unexpectedly, Chu Tianyin dodged all of them. As he dodged, the arrows in his hands didn't stop. Instead, he sent quite a few of them towards Han Yunxi.
Not only was this guy good at archery, but his martial arts were also top-notch, far beyond their imagination. Faced with this situation, Long Fei Ye wanted to go all out and fight, but the tunnel was too small. Neither the long whip nor the long sword could be used to their fullest potential.
"Does Your Highness Duke of Qin and Qin Wangfei wish to fight two against one?" Chu Tianyin mocked. Previously, when they met by chance in the underground palace, he was still very polite. But this time, he would not be so polite.
"Wrong! Three against one! "
Gu replied arrogantly. He casually tossed a tiny seed at Chu Tianyin. Since he couldn't find a suitable soil, then he would use Chu Tianyin's flesh as the soil!
But!
Chu Tianyin dodged again, but the arrows in his hands didn't stop. Swish, swish, swish.
Long Fei Ye struck all of the arrows to the ground with his whip. "I didn't expect the Chu Clan's First Young Master to be so secretive!"
"I didn't expect Elder Kenzō's proudest disciple to be so skilled in the whip!"
Although Chu Tianyin retorted, he was still impressed. Long Fei Ye was the first person in history to be able to block his Driving Arrow Technique for so long.
The situation between the two didn't change just because Han Yunxi and Gu joined the fight. In a sense, Chu Tianyin really did have the ability to fight one against three in this tunnel. Otherwise, he wouldn't have revealed the Chu Clan's secret art, the Driving Arrow Technique!
Han Yunxi and Gu didn't give up. They turned to attack the black-robed woman. One shot out a hidden needle, the other a seed.
But to their surprise, the black-robed woman easily dodged their attacks as well!
Han Yunxi grew alarmed. "Gu, are you a piece of trash like me, or is she just too strong?"
Even if her weapons couldn't hit him, Gu Qishao had to at least hit him.
Gu narrowed his eyes dangerously. "This woman … is even stronger than Chu Tianyin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly pulled Han Yunxi aside. A sharp arrow pierced through Long Fei Ye's defenses and flew past Han Yunxi's face. So close!
Long Fei Ye was alarmed as well. He finally realized that the true expert was this black-robed woman.
"I wanted to take a closer look at the man Qingge has set her eyes on, but now it looks like …"
The black-robed woman's lips curved into a cold smile. She didn't finish her sentence, but drew her bow with her bare hands and waited for an arrow to shoot!
Her cold demeanor was so similar to Chu Qingge's. Who was this woman to the Chu Clan?
Long Fei Ye had no time to guess, so he retreated to Han Yunxi's side. "Withdraw!"
Chu Tianyin and the black-robed woman both laughed. Since they'd revealed the Driving Arrow Technique, they had to see them die with their own eyes! Without hesitation, the two of them fired arrows at the same time.
Long Fei Ye had no time to retreat, so he could only block again. This time, he was facing double the power of the previous attack!
The first time, he blocked it. The second time, two arrows flew past him and headed for Han Yunxi. Fortunately, Gu blocked them. The third time, the arrows brushed past Long Fei Ye's face. Although they didn't hit him, they were grazed by the sharp air.
It had to be said that this was the most sullen Long Feiye had ever felt in his life.
"You guys leave first!" he said sternly.
"Impossible!"
"You're thinking too much!"
Han Yunxi and Gu were both dissatisfied. At this moment, there was a sudden rumble behind Chu Tianyin and the black-robed woman's backs. The boulders in their way crumbled apart, filling the air with dust as Tang Li and Chu Xifeng's figures grew clearer and clearer.
Reinforcements had arrived!
Tang Li and Chu Xifeng had rushed here as soon as they received the letter. Tang Li had used all sorts of explosive weapons to break apart the boulders, but he never expected to run into such a scene.
Everyone was stunned, but only for a second. Long Fei Ye was the first to strike with his whip, giving Chu Tianyin and the black-robed woman no time to react. Their first reaction was to dodge, while Tang Li and Chu Xifeng joined in as well.
But something unexpected happened once again.
The tunnel that had been swaying up and down suddenly began to sway left and right. In a flash, a fissure as deep as an abyss opened up beneath their feet.
No one expected this to happen, so everyone began to fall. Long Fei Ye subconsciously looked back at Han Yunxi, but there was nothing but darkness before his eyes!
"Han Yunxi!" he shouted, but there was no reply.
The abyss of the fissure was pitch-black as the entire world swayed. Everyone was falling down, and it was a long time before everything returned to normal …
Han Yunxi didn't know how much time had passed before she opened her eyes from her dizziness. She discovered that she was in a dense, dusky forest. Every tree and blade of grass here could be used to create poisons.
She heard Long Fei Ye's shouts as she fell, but the sudden weightlessness made her feel like blood was rushing to her head. She wanted to call back to Long Fei Ye, but she couldn't. After that, she lost consciousness.
What was this place? She didn't fall to her death?
Han Yunxi scrambled to her feet to check herself, but found that she wasn't injured at all. She should've rejoiced, but now her heart was filled with fear.
What had happened? Who had saved her? Who had put out the fire in the secret passage?
Where were Long Fei Ye and the others?
Han Yunxi couldn't help but shiver when she saw that there was no one around. She quickly walked in the direction of the light. She didn't notice that a white figure was following her from behind.
Soon, Han Yunxi saw a large circular altar surrounded by a dense forest. Green vines crawled all over the stone stele, solemn and mysterious.
Could this be the Poison Sect's old altar?
The Poison Sect and the medical academy both had a long history. During the Great Qin Empire's era, their power had been average. Following the fall of the Great Qin Empire, many factions in the world slowly rose to prominence. Only then did the Poison Sect and the medical academy flourish.
Just as Han Yunxi was feeling puzzled, an extremely familiar sound came from behind her.
Whoosh … It was the sound of an arrow piercing through the air!
Alarmed, Han Yunxi turned back just in time to see a whip lashing out to knock the arrow aside.
Long Fei Ye flew over from the side and pulled Han Yunxi behind him to protect her. At the same time, Gu, Chu Xifeng, and Tang Li all flew out of the forest to land by their side.
They'd fallen through the darkness and arrived in this forest without anyone noticing. They were all together, but Han Yunxi was nowhere to be seen. If they hadn't happened to be nearby and heard the arrow, Heaven knows what would've happened.
Long Fei Ye's expression was unsightly, but he remained calm. "Who saved you?" he asked in a low voice.
They'd all used lightness techniques to land on the ground, but Han Yunxi didn't know any martial arts. If she hadn't fallen to her death, then someone must have saved her.
"I don't know either. I was unconscious," Han Yunxi replied honestly.
"Was it the guy who put out the fire?" Gu asked doubtfully.
While they were talking, several sharp arrows shot out from the dense forest. They were aggressive and overbearing.
"You're seeking death!"
Long Fei Ye put away his whip and unsheathed his sword before leaping out. After being suppressed in the tunnels for so long, he could finally fight to his heart's content.
The Nether Clan's Chu Clan! Hmph, old grudges and new enmities, national enmity and personal grudges, I'll settle them all today!
His figure was like an arrow released from a bow as he met the arrows head-on. His sword swept out with clang, clang, clang, clang, knocking the arrows to the ground as he pressed closer and closer to the forest.
Finally, Chu Tianyin couldn't take it anymore and flew out of the forest. Long Fei Ye immediately went after him.
Chu Tianyin's eyes flashed with astonishment before he took out a bunch of arrows and shot them all at once!
The arrows whistled through the air like an umbrella. Long Fei Ye finally stopped and swept them away with all his might. Chu Tianyin used all his strength to take out another bunch of arrows.
The two of them fought in midair, but unlike in the tunnels, Long Fei Ye clearly had the upper hand this time. He met the arrows head-on and rapidly closed in on Chu Tianyin.
At first, Chu Tianyin was slowly backing away, but Long Fei Ye forced him into a corner and forced him to retreat. Amidst the rain of arrows and the clanging of metal, Long Fei Ye was clearly faster than Chu Tianyin.
As soon as the two of them drew closer, Chu Tianyin's arrows would lose their advantage while Long Fei Ye's sword would gain the upper hand.
Han Yunxi and the rest watched on with trepidation as they cheered Long Fei Ye in their hearts. Suddenly, a black shadow flew out from the forest behind Chu Tianyin. It was none other than the black-robed woman.
As soon as she appeared, she started shooting arrows at Long Fei Ye. Seeing this, Tang Li and Chu Xifeng both flew out to help. Gu's lips curved up into a cold smile as he silently shot out a seed.
Tang Li and Chu Xifeng teamed up to deal with the black-robed woman. Chu Xifeng's sword skills and Tang Li's hidden weapons soon made it impossible for the woman to deal with Chu Tianyin. She could only focus on the two of them.
"You're all men, but you're bullying me with numbers and even using hidden weapons. Despicable!" the black-robed woman cursed.
