The large forest was very quiet. Bai Yanqing's cold and stern gaze was fixed on Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi.
For a moment, everyone became nervous. Baili Mingxiang, who had already opened her eyes, did not dare to close them again. She was afraid that she would miss the best opportunity when Bai Yanqing attacked. Xu Donglin was also on guard, ready to fight at any time.
Ning Cheng did not know that Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi were hiding in this direction. He only thought that Bai Yanqing had noticed the archers lying in ambush around them. He was also very nervous.
Bai Yanqing's gaze was fixed on them for a very long time, as if he had really noticed something and could walk over here at any time. Finally, Han Yunxi's heart also became nervous. She held Long Fei Ye's hand tightly, asking if Long Fei Ye was ready to make a move. If Bai Yanqing really discovered them, it would be too late to make a move. If they made a move at this time, they could still attack Bai Yanqing and catch him off guard.
However, Long Fei Ye held Han Yunxi's small hand and immediately calmed her uneasiness. No matter how Bai Yanqing looked at him from afar, he was still as steady as Mount Tai and did not move.
Time seemed to have stopped here. Suddenly, a guard ran out of the room and hurriedly reported, "Master, Su Xiaoyu is about to die."
Bai Yuqiao was still hiding in the dark room. This group of guards were Ning Cheng's men. Seeing that the situation was not good, they were afraid that Bai Yanqing would discover the ambush around them. Therefore, they could only use this method to lure Bai Yanqing into the room. As for whether Bai Yanqing would discover anything strange in the room, they already did not care.
Tricking Bai Yanqing into the room and giving Ning Cheng a chance to shoot was better than doing it outside. The probability of Bai Yanqing being blown up inside the house was much higher than being blown up outside.
Bai Yanqing looked back and asked suspiciously, "Dying? What do you mean? "
The guard originally thought that Bai Yanqing would directly rush into the room, but he didn't expect him to ask for details. The guard hesitated for a moment, but in this moment of hesitation, Bai Yanqing's eyes flashed with a cold light. Unexpectedly, he soared into the air.
He wanted to escape!
"He found out!" Han Yunxi exclaimed.
"Release the arrows, don't let him escape!" Ning Cheng made a prompt decision.
In an instant, two large circles of archers emerged from the bushes. The first circle of archers crouched on the ground and shot arrows at Bai Yanqing from below. The second circle of archers quickly climbed up the surrounding trees and shot arrows at Bai Yanqing from above.
Han Yunxi and Long Feiye's group were hiding outside the archers' encirclement to witness everything. It had to be said that even Long Fei Ye admired Ning Cheng's arrangement. In this way, Bai Yanqing was quickly pinned down by the archers below. And once he was pinned down by the archers below, the archers above took advantage of the opportunity. The two circles of archers quickly formed an inescapable net and pinned down Bai Yanqing from the front, back, left, and right.
Bai Yanqing swept out circles of sword light again and again. Moreover, as soon as the archers in front were shaken off, there would be more people lying in ambush from behind to fill in the gaps.
Han Yunxi quickly discovered that Ning Cheng had twice as many archers as before. It seemed that Ning Cheng had been preparing for this for a long time. Even an expert like Bai Yanqing couldn't keep up with them. However, Han Yunxi didn't understand how Ning Cheng would deal with Bai Yanqing's poison techniques.
It was much easier to control the wind to poison someone in the mountain forest than in the imperial palace!
Soon, Long Fei Ye carried Han Yunxi to the top of a tree and overlooked the battlefield of Blacktower. Baili Mingxiang and Xu Donglin followed closely behind.
Han Yunxi exclaimed as soon as she reached the top, "Not good, Bai Yanqing is going to use poison!"
Bai Yanqing held a sword in one hand and swept away the arrows coming from all directions. His other hand was in the air as he made several mysterious and strange gestures. Although Han Yunxi hadn't noticed the change in the wind direction, the detoxification system had begun to warn her that there was a poisonous smell nearby.
Once Bai Yanqing used poison, no matter how perfect Ning Cheng's ambush was, no matter how many people he had, it would be of no use!
"Do you want to help him?" Long Fei Ye asked in a low voice.
Did Han Yunxi want to help him?
This question was too difficult for Han Yunxi. If she didn't help, could she just watch as Ning Cheng's army was wiped out and Ning Cheng died? She was still the princess of Western Qin!
No matter what, Ning Cheng was dealing with Bai Yanqing for the sake of the Western Qin Royal Family and to save Gu Beiyue! If it wasn't like this, Ning Cheng wouldn't need to be enemies with Bai Yanqing. If Ning Cheng was like Bai Yanqing and betrayed the Western Qin Royal Family and colluded with Northern Li, then the East Qin army would be in great trouble.
"It's all for the sake of catching Bai Yanqing." Han Yunxi revealed a faint smile and then said, "I don't need to help him, they can do it. Once they catch him, you two can split the loot. I won't be partial to anyone. "
Long Fei Ye raised his eyebrows as he looked at her disdainfully, finally smiling helplessly. Although it was a bit regretful, he still appreciated Han Yunxi's intelligence.
As expected, the wind began to change direction and Han Yunxi began to detect that the concentration of poison in the air was increasing with the wind. Although it wasn't strong enough to poison someone, the detoxification system had already helped her estimate the time. Ning Cheng only had the time it took to brew a cup of tea left to attack.
If his arrows couldn't kill Bai Yanqing, then he would lose.
Suddenly, an arrow flew past Bai Yanqing's waist, almost touching Bai Yanqing's waist. It was a pity that it didn't hit. Bai Yanqing leaned to the side and waved his sword, blocking all the following arrows. Casually leaning back, he dodged the incoming arrows. Although it was dangerous several times, the archer couldn't gain the upper hand in the end.
Time became more and more pressing. Han Yunxi made a prompt decision, "Long Fei Ye, we should go over."
They had to show up sooner or later. Showing up early could prevent other unexpected situations. Who would have thought that when Long Fei Ye was about to make a move, they would hear a giant "hong" sound!
Han Yunxi and the others hadn't even recovered when Ning Cheng's cannon landed below Bai Yanqing. With an even louder "hong long" sound, it exploded. In an instant, flowers bloomed all around the black tower. Smoke rose everywhere, trees fell, houses collapsed, and everything was destroyed!
Bai Yanqing was violently blown away by the force of the explosion. The surrounding archers were all blown away by the explosion. Even those who were invisible on the outside were blown away by the strong airflow.
Fortunately, Long Fei Ye reacted quickly and protected Han Yunxi as they retreated at the first moment, thus avoiding the disaster. Baili Mingxiang and Xu Donglin fell behind, but fortunately, they weren't seriously injured.
They never thought that Ning Cheng would have such a big move hidden!
It turned out … it turned out that the archers weren't Ning Cheng's final trump card, but the red barbarian cannon! It turned out that Ning Cheng didn't want to capture Bai Yanqing. Instead, he wanted to kill Bai Yanqing!
Han Yunxi stared blankly at the scene filled with black smoke. She then realized that Ning Cheng didn't want to save Gu Beiyue. Instead, he wanted to give up on Gu Beiyue!
How could he do this? Why did he decide to sacrifice Gu Beiyue? Why?
For the sake of Western Qin?
Gu Beiyue wasn't a member of the Di Clan. What right did he have to make the decision to sacrifice Gu Beiyue?
Han Yunxi's eyes burned with anger. Even when Ning Cheng tore her clothes the last time, she wasn't as angry as this time.
"Despicable!" she said coldly.
Xu Donglin and Baili Mingxiang rushed over. Baili Mingxiang was in a sorry state from the fall, but he couldn't care about anything else. He was so flustered that he couldn't even speak clearly before his tears kept falling. "Princess … Princess, Little Yu 'er, Little Yu' er, she …" That's right, Little Yu 'er!
Han Yunxi looked at the collapsed black tower in shock. Only then did she remember that Little Yu 'er was still imprisoned in the black tower.
Not only Little Yu 'er, but also Bai Yuqiao and Ning Cheng's guards. The two Shadow Guards who were hiding in the dark were also in the black tower. The explosion was so sudden that even the Shadow Guards might not be able to withstand it, let alone Little Yu' er, who was seriously injured. "Xu Donglin, save him! Quick! "Han Yunxi cried out in alarm. Even if the hope was slim, they still had to save him!
Xu Donglin immediately called for a few Shadow Guards to go over together. Baili Mingxiang anxiously wanted to follow them, but Han Yunxi immediately stopped him. "Baili Mingxiang, have you forgotten what you came here to do?"
Han Yunxi's worry for Little Yu 'er was no less than Baili Mingxiang's, and her love for Little Yu' er was no less than Baili Mingxiang's. After all, she was the one who saved Little Yu 'er.
However, no matter how anxious she was, she had to remain calm and make a choice.
Bai Yanqing had just been blasted out by the explosion, and she didn't know if he was alive or dead. If he was dead, then everything would be over. If he wasn't dead and escaped, then all their efforts would be in vain.
Han Yunxi's words made Baili Mingxiang immediately realize that she had a heavy responsibility on this trip. She quickly retreated and whispered, "Mingxiang was too impulsive. Thank you for the reminder, Princess."
A complicated look flashed across Han Yunxi's eyes. Finally, she said indifferently, "You don't want anything to happen to Little Yu 'er, and Little Yu' er must also want you to be well … Be careful, don't make her sad."
Long Fei Ye didn't have time to waste here. He immediately led Han Yunxi in the direction where Bai Yanqing had fallen. Baili Mingxiang hurriedly followed, but her heart felt extremely stifled.
If Little Yu 'er was still alive, if she died, would Little Yu' er be sad? Would she cry?
Princess … would she still be sad?
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi chased for a short distance before they saw Bai Yanqing surrounded by a group of experts. His shoulders and legs were injured by the explosion, and his swordsmanship was obviously not as agile as before. However, not long after, one of the experts collapsed and collapsed on the ground, powerless. It was not for anything else, but because Bai Yanqing had poisoned him!
"Should we go over there?" Long Fei Ye asked.
Actually, he didn't need to ask for her opinion. She said seriously, "Of course!"
Long Fei Ye immediately held Han Yunxi tightly with one hand and charged over with his sword in the other. Long Fei Ye was very fast. Han Yunxi felt the wind whistling past her from both sides. She didn't know why, but she felt the excitement of going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Was this how it felt to fight side by side? Han Yunxi wished that her legs would recover quickly so that she could learn martial arts and truly fight side by side with Long Fei Ye.
Just as Long Fei Ye raised his sword to attack Bai Yanqing and caught him off guard, Ning Cheng suddenly appeared from the side and blocked Long Fei Ye. He said coldly, "Bai Yanqing's life is mine! Who the hell are you? "
Long Fei Ye was still wearing the silver mask, and Han Yunxi was still disguised as a man. No wonder Ning Cheng didn't recognize them. Ning Cheng would never have guessed that Long Fei Ye had planted Su Xiaoyu a few months ago. He would never have guessed that the people in front of him were Long Fei Ye and Su Xiaoyu.
At this moment, Bai Yanqing noticed them. He said sternly, "Ning Cheng, my good disciple isn't dead, right?!"
Bai Yanqing suspected that Bai Yuqiao controlled Blacktower and gave him false information about the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion. He also didn't expect that the real culprits behind the scenes were Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi.
This misunderstanding was huge …
