Han Yunxi wasn't someone who couldn't withstand provocation, but she really wanted to kill Bai Yanqing with her own hands.
If it weren't for Bai Yanqing, Gu Beiyue wouldn't have fallen off the cliff, her identity wouldn't have been exposed, and she might still be foolishly staying by Long Fei Ye's side right now.
No matter when Long Fei Ye would reveal her identity or start using her, at least she would have the chance to ask that question herself! At least she wouldn't be as tired and helpless as she was now!
She'd been doing her best to stabilize the situation in Cloud Realm, to balance the powers of Eastern and Western Qin, and to delay the real confrontation.
She'd done her best to do everything, but she still didn't know where she stood or which side she should lean towards.
She didn't know the truth, so she kept telling herself not to be willful and not to make a random choice.
Although she wasn't really a princess of Western Qin, she didn't want to let down a truly loyal family like the Di Clan. As a princess of Western Qin, she had the right to refuse to revive her country, but she didn't have the right to use this identity to help Long Fei Ye become enemies with the Di Clan and destroy the faith of Western Qin's loyal generals.
As an independent woman from the modern era, she didn't want to let down her love.
Long Fei Ye, if I wasn't a princess of Western Qin, I would like you! Long Fei Ye, do you know that I'm actually not a princess of Western Qin?
Long Fei Ye, if I wasn't a princess of Western Qin, would you still like me?
Today's pain was all caused by Bai Yanqing!
Han Yunxi decided to be willful for once.
If she killed Bai Yanqing, the Northern Dynasties Emperors wouldn't be able to threaten Jun Yi Xie anymore. That was why Bai Yanqing couldn't die yet. But Han Yunxi could cripple his hands.
She pulled out Gu's sword and placed it on Bai Yanqing's shoulder.
Seeing this, Ning Cheng and Gu were on high alert. The two of them stood guard beside Han Yunxi, guarding against Bai Yanqing's counterattack.
After all, Han Yunxi was a woman who did not know any martial arts. It was very likely that she would counterattack and take Bai Yanqing as a hostage.
"You're right. I don't dare to kill you, but I can cripple you!" Han Yunxi said coldly.
Bai Yanqing laughed out loud. He was not afraid, nor did he show any signs of counterattacking. He kept laughing. "Han Yunxi, you can't do it."
Seeing that Gu and Ning Cheng were on guard, Han Yunxi held her sword with both hands and was about to slash Bai Yanqing's shoulder. At that moment, Bai Yanqing said Coldly, "Gu Beiyue is in my hands. If you cripple me, I guarantee that you'll never see Gu Beiyue again!"
As soon as he said that, Han Yunxi's sword stopped abruptly. Gu also grabbed her sword at almost the same time.
Gu Beiyue?
Everyone was shocked!
Didn't Gu Beiyue fall off the cliff? Could it be that Bai Yanqing found him? How could that be?
Han Yunxi didn't believe it!
After Gu Beiyue had fallen off the cliff that night, they'd confirmed that the dark-robed assassin had left. Then Chu Xifeng had immediately led the Shadow Guard down to search for him. Bai Yanqing was the dark-robed assassin himself. There was no way he'd come down the cliff so quickly, much less find him before Chu Xifeng and the rest.
"Ridiculous, why should I believe you?" Han Yunxi demanded in disbelief.
Bai Yanqing took out a white jade hairpin from his sleeve. Han Yunxi's heart almost stopped at the sight of it.
She recognized this hairpin!
Gu Beiyue wore very few accessories on his body. In fact, you could say that he didn't have any at all. All his hair was held together by this simple hairpin.
His snow-white robes and ink-black hair were enough to surpass all other brocade garments. No one would ever forget him for the rest of their lives.
Every time Han Yunxi saw him, he'd used this same hairpin. How could Han Yunxi not recognize it?!
"Why is Gu Beiyue in your hands? What did you do to him? "
Han Yunxi was so anxious that she almost lost control, but Ning Cheng grabbed Bai Yanqing by the collar and roared, "You traitor! You knew he was a descendant of the Shadow Clan, but you still dared to attack him! Bai Yanqing, can you face the imperial clan? Are you worthy of your Wind Clan's ancestors? "
Fortunately, Gu was here. Fortunately, Gu hadn't lost all reason.
Seeing Bai Yanqing silently stretch out his hand from behind his back, Gu immediately snatched the sword from Han Yunxi's hand and pointed it at his heart. "You'd better behave yourself. Otherwise, my sword won't have eyes!"
Gu's words reminded Han Yunxi and Ning Cheng, and the two regained their senses. The surrounding archers pressed on even tighter, and Bai Yanqing could only put down his hand.
He looked at him suspiciously. "Ning Cheng, why do you say that Old Man killed Gu Beiyue? You're slandering Old Man and slandering the Wind Clan's loyalty. What are your intentions? "
Bai Yanqing couldn't figure out why Han Yunxi would turn against the Wind Clan. After hearing Ning Cheng's words, he mistakenly thought that Han Yunxi had been instigated by Ning Cheng.
Although he was indeed the black-clothed assassin, how could Ning Cheng know about this?
Even Gu Beiyue and Han Yunxi, the two parties involved, didn't know the truth. How could Ning Cheng have guessed it? This must be Ning Cheng's mistake!
Han Yunxi laughed. She took out a poison. This poison was none other than the "Blood at Dawn" that she had used on Bai Yanqing's shoulder. This was a newly grown poison from the poison pool.
Seeing this, Bai Yanqing was shocked!
On the night he assassinated Gu Beiyue, the poisonous beast bit his shoulder. The poisonous beast's teeth were poisonous. He was shocked at first, thinking that the poisonous beast had recovered. Later, he found out that the poison wasn't from the poisonous beast's teeth, but something that had been added to the teeth.
He didn't have time to think about it carefully. He immediately determined that the poison was the commonly seen "Throat Sealing at Dawn" and put it into his poison storage space. After that, he didn't think much about it.
After all, Han Yunxi wasn't the only one who had the Throat Sealing at Dawn poison. Han Yunxi had used this poison on him, so he wouldn't leave any evidence behind.
He never thought that the poison that night wasn't the "Throat Sealing at Dawn", but the new poison in Han Yunxi's hands. At first glance, the toxicity was very similar to the "Throat Sealing at Dawn", but in reality, the antidote was very different. At least with his ability, he wouldn't be able to cure the poison in a day or two. This poison would take effect in one night. He couldn't wait for a day or two.
Therefore, if he didn't ask Han Yunxi for the antidote, he would definitely die.
Bai Yanqing was shocked. He didn't think that Han Yunxi's thoughts were more meticulous than he thought.
However, he didn't give up. He didn't understand. He was still alive, so why would Han Yunxi suspect him?
"What do you mean?" He continued to play dumb.
"This is called Blood at Dawn. It's my new poison. There are only two copies in this world. One is with me, and the other was put into your poison storage space that night. If you don't believe me, you can go and look for it." Han Yunxi said with a cold smile.
Bai Yanqing was dumbfounded. He couldn't speak for a long time.
How did Han Yunxi know that he had a poison storage space?
"That night when the little thing bit you, the poison immediately disappeared after you were poisoned. If that wasn't because of the poison storage space, then what was it?" Han Yunxi said Coldly. "Also, the one who fought with me in the Lost Path was also you! The new poison I used at the end, you couldn't cure it. You just put it into your poison storage space! You pretended to spend two hours to cure the poison, but that was just a smokescreen. You were afraid that I would guess that you had a poison storage space forever! Unfortunately, I guessed it. "
"Bai Yanqing, you're not Jun Yi Xie's servant. You're Jun Yi Xie's master! The one who spread the poison fog on Fishery Island was none other than you! You're not just the head of the Wind Clan, you're also a descendant of the Poison Sect! You knew that Gu Beiyue was a descendant of the Shadow Clan, but you still killed him. You're disloyal to Western Qin! You knew that I was a descendant of the Poison Sect, but you refused to acknowledge me. You're disloyal to the Poison Sect! "
Han Yunxi exposed the truth with every word of her accusation.
Bai Yanqing stared blankly at her, speechless for a long time. Everything he'd carefully planned had been seen through by this girl!
That was why she and Ning Cheng had worked together to trick him into the palace and lure him into a trap. Even what Ning Cheng had done to Gu last night had been a show for him to see.
Han Yunxi hesitated, then continued, "Also, you used Tianshan Kenzō's sword skills to assassinate Gu Beiyue. You purposely imitated the Long Fei Ye in order to sow discord between me and the Long Fei Ye, as well as Gu Beiyue and the Long Fei Ye! If I'm not wrong, if I don't expose you today, you'll soon tell Ning Cheng that the dark-robed assassin used Tianshan Kenzō's sword skills to assassinate Gu Beiyue. You want to add oil to the flames of hatred between Eastern and Western Qin. You want nothing more than for Ning Cheng and I to lose our minds and mobilize our troops south to fight the Long Fei Ye to the death! You, on the other hand, are waiting for Jun Yi Xie's battle steed. You want to be the fisherman! "
Ning Cheng was stunned. Only now did he know that the dark-robed assassin knew Tianshan Kenzō's sword skills. If Han Yunxi had told him earlier, he definitely wouldn't have been as rational as he was now. He definitely wouldn't have believed that this was all Bai Yanqing's scheme.
Ning Cheng couldn't help but feel heartache when he saw Han Yunxi's angry expression. This woman must have thought through everything so deeply to be able to weigh everything so well. She knew what to say and what not to say. She knew when to say and when not to say.
Ning Cheng even felt a bit guilty about his previous suspicions. Han Yunxi secretly let out a sigh of relief. She had finally found a chance to mention the "Tianshan Kenzō's sword skills". If she said it at this point, Ning Cheng wouldn't blame her for hiding it.
"Bai Yanqing, the enemy's hatred can never compare to the betrayal of your family! Western Qin's biggest enemy is your Wind Clan, followed by East Qin! "Han Yunxi's words were actually for Ning Cheng to hear.
Bai Yanqing was completely convinced. He only had one question that he couldn't understand, "Han Yunxi, how did you know that the poison in my shoulder was cured that night?"
Not to mention being far away, even if they were close, they wouldn't have been able to tell. That kind of poison needed time to activate.
"So you admit it?" Han Yunxi gave a cold laugh.
"Tell me why?" Bai Yanqing was a bit excited. He had failed because of this detail, so how could he be satisfied if he didn't figure it out?
"I can tell you why. Tell me, what is your relationship with my mother?" Han Yunxi Coldly asked.
Bai Yanqing was surprised at first, but then he broke out in laughter. He avoided this topic and threw the white jade hairpin to Han Yunxi, "Let me go immediately. Otherwise, I guarantee that in three days, Gu Beiyue will be cut into ten thousand pieces!"
"Immediately hand over Gu Beiyue, otherwise I guarantee that I'll cut you into ten thousand pieces right now!" Han Yunxi sternly warned.
Who would have thought that Bai Yanqing would have an indifferent expression, "Please ….."
The chips were even, so they were the winners?
