Han Yunxi's valiant opponent was none other than Jun Yi Xie's master, the former leader of the Hundred Poisons Sect, Bai Yanqing.
He and his disciple Bai Yuqiao were sitting on a large stone at the entrance of the maze instead of being surrounded by the fog.
Bai Yuqiao had always known that her master was Cloud Realm Continent's top poisons master. Even Han Yunxi, who'd made a name for herself in the past few years, was no match for him.
But today, her worldview had been completely refreshed.
Reality after reality told her that she'd underestimated Han Yunxi. Han Yunxi had such skills at such a young age, far surpassing her and her senior brother. She was definitely a genius.
At the same time, Bai Yuqiao realized that she'd underestimated her master even more.
Han Yunxi had poisoned him so many times, but she only recognized the poison on her senior brother's shoulder. She'd seen all the others before.
But her master seemed to be very familiar with all of Han Yunxi's poisons. He didn't even need to think before dispelling them.
In the time it took to brew a cup of tea, her master wasn't thinking, but explaining the poisons to her.
Bai Yuqiao had no time to wonder just how miraculous her master's poison skills were. She was only curious about two things. First, her master hadn't brought anything with him on this trip, so where did he find the ingredients to create the antidote?
After all, she hadn't even seen him take out the antidote. He'd only taken a few steps into the maze before the poison in the fog disappeared.
The other question was the rheumatic poison in her senior brother's body. After all, senior brother's shoulder was still being tormented by the poison. Her master had been trying to figure out an antidote all this time, but he still hadn't figured it out.
Just then, her master had spent two hours napping instead of trying to figure out an antidote. After waking up, he'd taken a few steps into the maze before dispelling the poison in the fog.
Just what was going on?
Han Yunxi was still poisoning him while her master continued to dispel the poison.
Bai Yuqiao couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Master, can you … now … cure the poison in senior brother's shoulder?"
Bai Yuqiao had too many questions, but none of them were as important as this one.
She couldn't figure it out. Did master find the antidote just by taking a nap?
Senior brother had been suffering from the poison for two years now. Every time the weather turned cold, the poison would act up and get worse. Senior brother was certain that her master would take this matter to heart, so he'd never asked his master whether he'd found an antidote.
Bai Yuqiao's heart ached every time she saw him in such agony.
"I can't," Bai said.
Bai Yuqiao was startled. "Then just now, master …"
"Who told you that detoxification is the only way to make the poison disappear?" Bai Yanqing retorted.
"Your disciple is slow-witted …"
Bai Yuqiao grew even more bewildered, but she immediately lowered her head, not daring to ask any more questions. She knew that if she asked another question, her master would definitely not let her off easily.
Bai Yuqiao obediently waited at the side. Soon, Bai Yanqing and Han Yunxi fought several rounds. Bai Yanqing couldn't help but mutter to himself, "The Water of Ten-Thousand Poisons must be in this girl's hands."
Water of Ten Thousand Poisons?
Bai Yuqiao was shocked. Wasn't the Water of Ten Thousand Poisons the poisonous water that had disappeared from the Medicinal Herbs Forest? She had heard her senior brother mention it before.
The Water of Ten Thousand Poisons could cultivate countless new types of poisons. One had to know that his senior brother had been looking for this item for a long time.
Not long after, Bai Yanqing allowed the poisonous fog to spread out again. He sat back down on the big bluestone, looking a little tired.
Bai Yuqiao hurriedly handed over the kettle. "Master, take a rest."
"Hehe, I haven't met a worthy opponent for several decades. It's really tiring." Bai Yanqing sighed.
Han Yunxi's poison in the fog was of the same grade as the poison in Jun Yi Xie's body. He had deliberately rested for two hours just now to confuse Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi's judgment. But now, he had no choice but to rest.
Thinking about it, he and Han Yunxi had been fighting for more than half a day. It was really exhausting!
"Master, rest well. Your disciple will keep watch. Your disciple guarantees that Han Yunxi won't be able to use the poisonous mosquito swarm. "Bai Yuqiao said seriously.
Even if Han Yunxi wasn't afraid of the poisonous fog, she and Long Fei Ye wouldn't be able to walk out of the Lost Path Formation. Because Bai Yuqiao had already used poison in the surroundings, the poisonous mosquito swarm within a hundred li radius wouldn't dare to come close.
Moreover, even if Han Yunxi didn't use the poisonous mosquito swarm and summoned other poisonous creatures to lead the way, she would still have a way to interfere with her.
Bai Yanqing didn't say anything and closed his eyes. Actually, he only came to test Han Yunxi today. He didn't want to do anything to her. Moreover, with Long Fei Ye's ability, he might not be able to do anything to them.
Acting rashly would cause more harm than good.
Once he'd rested enough, he'd fight a few more rounds with Han Yunxi. That girl's poisons were more stunning than the last!
Bai Yanqing was resting, but Han Yunxi was very energetic.
Seeing that the poison she used didn't disappear in the time it took to drink a cup of tea, she muttered, "Long Fei Ye, this poison is of the same grade as Bone Erosion. The other party wouldn't need another two hours to neutralize it, right?"
It was hard for Long Fei Ye to answer if he wasn't sure.
"Why don't I try a poison of a higher grade?" Han Yunxi asked seriously.
She had many poisons of a higher grade than Bone Erosion, but she only had one or two new types. She wouldn't use them unless it was absolutely necessary.
"There's no need. Not only is there poisonous fog in the maze, but there are also formations. There are too many accidents, so it's best if we don't leave the maze. " Long Fei Ye had always liked to take risks, but he would always choose the method with the least risk when it came to Han Yunxi.
His poison skills were so exquisite that he couldn't be compared to the people Madam Leng Yue had ambushed previously. The enemy was in the dark, while they were out in the open. No matter what, they were at a disadvantage.
Long Fei Ye said seriously, "You've been poisoning him, and he's been neutralizing the poison. You've already exposed too much, so there's no need for us to continue playing. "
"If we don't take the maze, is there another way?" Han Yunxi asked helplessly.
Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye actually answered her, "Yes, there is another exit."
Long Fei Ye didn't look like he was joking, and he wouldn't make a silly joke at a time like this. However, Han Yunxi couldn't believe it.
They were surrounded by a dense forest, and the fog was so thick that they couldn't even see their fingers in front of them. Even if they were in the maze, they could still barely see the way. Right now, she only regretted leaving Little Rascal with Gu Beiyue. If Little Rascal was here, perhaps it could bring them through the maze.
"Where?" Han Yunxi asked suspiciously.
Long Fei Ye sat down and took off his boots. The more Han Yunxi looked at him, the more confused she became. She realized that Long Fei Ye's figure was so good that even his ankles were full of strength. However, she quickly discovered that there was a light blue crystal nailed to his ankles.
"This is …"
Han Yunxi was in disbelief. She and Long Fei Ye had known each other for so long, but she didn't know that he had such a treasure hidden in his ankles. From the luster of this crystal, it didn't lose out to the white jade crystal in her hands.
He couldn't tell her that this was a blue jade crystal that had never appeared before.
Long Fei Ye pulled out the blue crystal and blood immediately seeped out from his ankles. Han Yunxi then discovered that this thing was about the same size as a woman's earring. Long Fei Ye's ankles weren't pierced, but the crystal was directly nailed into his flesh. When this thing was pulled out, the wound started bleeding.
Han Yunxi hurriedly took out disinfectant and gauze, but Long Fei Ye was already about to put on his socks.
"No rush, treat the wound first." Han Yunxi stopped him.
"There's no need for this small matter …"
"Any injury on your body is no small matter to me!"
Han Yunxi was very domineering. She pressed Long Fei Ye back down, rolled up his trousers, took off his socks, and seriously disinfected his wound before bandaging it.
Long Fei Ye sat down obediently. He looked at Han Yunxi's serious little face and unconsciously lifted her chin slowly.
Han Yunxi casually opened it. "Don't quarrel!"
She seriously bandaged Long Fei Ye's wound and wrapped it tightly. Then she helped him put on his socks and boots.
When she was done, she looked up. Long Fei Ye asked, "Can we quarrel now?"
Han Yunxi couldn't help but laugh. Before she could answer, Long Fei Ye lifted her chin and gently bit her lips before pulling her up.
Han Yunxi wanted to ignore it, but she still unconsciously pursed her lips. Of course, she quickly focused her attention on the blue crystal in Long Fei Ye's hand.
"What is this? Can it take us out of here? "she asked curiously.
Long Fei Ye placed the blue crystal in his hand. The blue crystal had a gentle luster that was comparable to the best pearls. Although it was small, the faint blue made people feel refreshed and enlightened. After looking at it for a long time, they would think of the sky, the sea, and everything else that was vast and boundless.
This thing seemed to have some kind of magical power. Han Yunxi was deeply attracted to it.
Long Fei Ye asked, "What does it look like?"
"It looks like … a tear." Han Yunxi was very sure. "It looks like a teardrop."
"This is a teardrop. It's one of the mermaid's tears. It's called the tear of holding." Long Fei Ye explained.
Han Yunxi was very surprised. "It's from the Baili family?"
The mermaid race had many branches and the Baili family was one of them. They could live normally on land like humans, but once they entered the water, they could freely display the characteristics of mermaids.
"The Baili Mermaid Race is the Tear Shark of the mermaid race. Normally, when they cry, it will not form the tear of holding. When their lives are about to end, they will cry because of the obsession in their hearts, forming the tear of holding. The greater the obsession, the greater the energy contained in the tear of holding. "Long Fei Ye softly said.
The tear in his hand was given to his mother by his father and his mother gave it to him. It was given to the royal family by the mermaid race's ancestors to thank the East Qin royal family for saving their lives. So far, it was the Tear of Holding with the most energy in the mermaid race.
"What energy?" Han Yunxi was very shocked. The Baili Mermaid Race was too different from the mermaid race she knew. How was this tear of holding related to whether they could leave the Empty Lake or not?
Long Fei Ye brought her to the Empty Lake and he actually casually threw the tear of holding into the Empty Lake.
"This is the Tear of Holding with the most energy in the mermaid race. As long as it is placed in the water, the surrounding Tear Sharks will sense its existence and come over."
Long Fei Ye looked at the small lake in the Empty Lake and softly said, "There is a lake in this lake. It looks empty from afar, but if this king has not guessed wrong, this lake will lead to another water system."
"You mean ….. As long as the mermaid race senses the tear of holding, they can find us through the water system?" Han Yunxi finally understood Long Fei Ye's meaning.
Long Fei Ye nodded. Although he knew about the Lost Void Lake, he had never truly entered it. If he knew that this lake would lead to another water system, he would not have walked through the Lost Void Array.
Bai Yanqing and Bai Yuqiao were still waiting outside. Could Long Fei Ye's tear of holding summon reinforcements?
