Ning Cheng watched as Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye left just like that.
The vision of a single eye was narrow and the range of vision was limited. Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi's figures soon disappeared from Ning Cheng's sight, leaving him with an unbearable pain.
The eyes were one of the weakest parts of the human body. Ning Cheng not only felt pain, but also a burning sensation, as if he had been dipped in chili water. It was unbearable. He only felt something flowing down from his right eye, but he couldn't tell if it was blood or tears.
Was there such a thing as blood tears?
This needle was poisonous!
If Han Yunxi's needle was an accident, then what did she mean when she left with Long Fei Ye?
The needle only destroyed his eye, but the poison would take his life. He had been poisoned by her needle before and knew that the needles she shot out from her sleeve were all dipped in poison.
"Master, your eye …"
"Quickly find a doctor, quickly!"
… …
The archers who rushed over all panicked. They had seen their master get seriously injured, but they had never seen him get injured like this.
"Bai Yanqing fled to the right. Chase after him!" Ning Cheng ordered coldly, as if he was not injured at all.
"Master …"
The archers hesitated, but Ning Cheng said sternly, "Violators will be punished by the warlord!"
The leader of the archers was helpless. He could only leave two guards behind and lead the rest of the men to chase after them.
Ning Cheng stood motionless, waiting. The two guards knew his temper well. They wanted to persuade him but didn't dare.
In fact, Ning Cheng's wisest choice now was to leave immediately and find a poison master to detoxify the poison and find a doctor to save his eye.
But he stubbornly stood there and waited.
The woman he liked hurt and killed him. He accepted it. It was wishful thinking and he was asking for trouble.
But the princess of Western Qin hurt and killed him. He refused to accept it! He wanted a reason that could convince him!
He could sacrifice his life for Western Qin, but Han Yunxi was not qualified to kill him for Long Fei Ye.
The pain in his eyes couldn't compare to the pain in his heart; the pain in his heart couldn't compare to despair. The heartache was caused by the loss of love, while the despair was caused by the destruction of a lifetime of faith.
Ning Cheng stood there stubbornly, stubbornly waiting.
He was waiting for Han Yunxi to come back. He was waiting for redemption, but he didn't know who would be redeeming who.
However, he could not stand for long. In less than the time it took to brew a cup of tea, he fell to his knees in pain. His badly mangled right eye seemed to be burning, and the burning sensation quickly spread from his eye to his head. It was so painful that Ning Cheng unconsciously hugged his head and curled up on the ground.
The poison was acting up, and it was a very strong poison!
The two guards were shocked. They were discussing how to take Ning Cheng away by force. But at this time, the two guards seemed to have suffered from some kind of magical illness. They both trembled and fell to the side, foaming at the mouth.
There was no doubt that they had been poisoned.
Suddenly, a small, scarred hand reached out from the bushes and tugged at the corner of Ning Cheng's clothes. After confirming that Ning Cheng was really poisoned, Bai Yuqiao crawled out from the bushes. She was covered in dust and covered in wounds. She was in a very sorry state.
She really wasn't meant to die!
After the explosion that destroyed the Blacktower, a huge beam was placed on top of her head and almost killed her. It was because of this near miss that the beam helped her block another beam and saved her life. She wasn't the only one who was lucky enough to survive. Su Xiaoyu was also lucky.
The Shadow Guards who rushed to rescue her had already been poisoned by her. As for the lives of Ning Cheng's guards, she didn't care. Anyway, she had poisoned the dust in the ruins. If they weren't proficient in the art of poison, no one would be spared.
She originally wanted to drag Su Xiaoyu away from this place and escape to Northern Li. Who knew that not long after leaving the ruins of the Blacktower, she would encounter Ning Cheng.
This cunning, untrustworthy guy! He actually used the Red Barbarian Cannon and tricked her. If she wasn't lucky enough to survive, she wouldn't even know that she had been tricked to death!
"Master Ning, you're a merchant. It's fine if you're cunning, but how can you not keep your word? The price for playing tricks on this lady is very high! "
Bai Yuqiao muttered to herself. She turned the curled up Ning Cheng over. At this time, she saw that Ning Cheng's right eye had been pierced and the blood was black. He had been poisoned!
"Master?" Bai Yuqiao was very suspicious. She didn't know anything about what had just happened. When she discovered the Shadow Guards in the ruins, she only suspected that Long Fei Ye had come as well, but never Han Yunxi.
Bai Yuqiao pulled out the needle without hesitation, causing Ning Cheng to jerk violently from the pain. He was already on the verge of unconsciousness, but the agony caused him to open his left eye and see Bai Yuqiao.
Frightened, Bai Yuqiao took out a poison needle and stabbed it into Ning Cheng's arm. Ning Cheng didn't even know what was going on before he fainted.
Bai Yuqiao recalled the terror of her life hanging by a thread and gnashed her teeth. She wanted nothing more than to cut Ning Cheng into pieces, but she still hesitated.
Ning Cheng was a big shot! The head of the Di Clan not only controlled Cloud Realm Trade Consortium and Myriad Merchant Hall, but also Western Qin's army. If she could use poison to restrain Ning Cheng for her senior brother's use, then it would be a brilliant plan.
Compared to Su Xiaoyu, Ning Cheng was an even bigger surprise for her senior brother!
Bai Yuqiao made a prompt decision and took out a pill she carried on her person for Ning Cheng to swallow. Ning Cheng's poison was hypertoxic. If it wasn't cured within 15 minutes, he'd die without a doubt. Moreover, even if she had poison, she'd still need a certain acupuncture technique to cure the poison. Although she could make an antidote, she couldn't find any ingredients in the wilderness. None of the ingredients she carried on her person could be used to make an antidote.
She could only give Ning Cheng the pill to prolong the poison's effects and do her best to bring Ning Cheng to a safe place before searching for the antidote.
Bai Yuqiao whistled and a tall man walked out of the thicket, following the sound. This was Blacktower's true guard, Brother Qi. Back then, Ning Cheng had told her to replace all the guards at Blacktower, but she'd kept her most loyal Brother Qi.
Back then, she'd told Ning Cheng with a smile that the archers were blind and that Ning Cheng had left her a way out! Leaving Brother Qi behind was a way out for herself. If she wanted to escape with Su Xiaoyu, she'd need someone to help her.
She trusted Brother Qi's poison skills.
As soon as Brother Qi saw Bai Yuqiao, he was pleasantly surprised. "Miss Yu 'er, I thought you'd died in Blacktower!"
Brother Qi had been hiding in the thicket and had clearly seen the scene of Han Yunxi and the others dealing with Bai Yanqing.
"Hurry up and help me take Ning Cheng away, we'll go seek refuge with senior brother!" Bai Yuqiao said as he turned around to pull Su Xiaoyu, who was hiding in the thicket.
"Miss Yu 'er, something big has happened, something big!" Brother Qi was still scared witless.
"No matter how big it is, let's leave first. I only have one day to find the antidote! If Ning Cheng dies, I'll hold you responsible! "Bai Yuqiao said unhappily.
Brother Qi immediately shut his mouth.
Bai Yuqiao said in a low voice, "Go to the northeast side, go down the cliff, there's a deep stream that leads directly to Northern Li. I can also find the antidote, hurry up! "
Brother Qi didn't dare to delay and hurriedly pulled Ning Cheng up, leaving hurriedly with Bai Yuqiao.
At this time, Han Yunxi was already throwing a tantrum at Long Fei Ye.
She repeatedly told Long Fei Ye that she had to go back to save Ning Cheng, but Long Fei Ye turned a deaf ear to her and hurriedly chased after Bai Yanqing.
Han Yunxi held his hand tightly and said angrily, "Long Fei Ye, that needle is poisonous! Ning Cheng will die! "
She had already said this five times.
"He's looking for death!" Long Fei Ye finally stopped. If it wasn't for Ning Cheng stopping him, Bai Yanqing wouldn't have been able to escape even if he had wings.
Han Yunxi said, "If you want him to die, go kill him! No matter what, he can't die by my hands! "
That needle of hers was aimed at Bai Yanqing, and it was purely an accident that it hurt Ning Cheng's eye! She had always known that the Pearflower Storm Needles were useless, but she really didn't think that Ning Cheng's straightforward challenge to Bai Yanqing was actually to use a hidden weapon.
Today, whoever captured Bai Yanqing first had the right to punish Bai Yanqing. Long Fei Ye wanted to interrogate Bai Yanqing, while Ning Cheng wanted to use Bai Yanqing to contain Jun Yi Xie.
It was understandable that they would fight to the death. However, no matter what, Ning Cheng couldn't die by the hands of a Western Qin princess!
No one could do anything about accidental injuries, but if she didn't save him, she would feel uneasy for the rest of her life.
Long Fei Ye looked at Han Yunxi and didn't make a sound for a long time.
With Bai Yanqing in front and Ning Cheng behind, there was only one choice.
Chasing after Bai Yanqing and letting Ning Cheng die from the poison was the wisest choice he could make as the East Qin Crown Prince. It was also his duty.
Actually, he had already stopped. He had already made his choice, hadn't he?
A trace of regret flashed in his eyes as he softly said, "Let's go."
"I'm sorry." Han Yunxi said in a low voice.
Long Fei Ye was stunned at first, but then he revealed a smile. He wanted to explain something, but he gave up. "No need." Actually, without Han Yunxi, he couldn't deal with Bai Yanqing alone. If Han Yunxi stood on the side of Western Qin and helped Ning Cheng, it was understandable. She wasn't wrong.
He had set up such a long line, but Bai Yanqing still escaped. Long Fei Ye should have been angry, but he could still smile. He didn't think he was a noble person and he didn't plan on using any clean methods to deal with the Western Qin camp. But because of Han Yunxi, he'd become a noble man.
Noble?
Different standpoints had different definitions of nobility. He just didn't want her to carry the identity of the Western Qin princess with him. It would be too hard for her and cause too much infamy.
Because he carried the identity of the East Qin Crown Prince with her, he could feel the "difficulty" in his heart.
It really was very, very difficult.
Han Yunxi's current mood was the same as when he faced Baili Yuanlong.
A "sorry" and a "no need" was better than any other explanation. If the world didn't understand, it was fine if they understood each other. Only when they understood each other could they move forward in the face of danger.
"Quickly go!" Han Yunxi didn't waste any time.
There was still time to detoxify the poison in fifteen minutes.
But who would have thought that when Long Fei Ye brought her back, Ning Cheng would disappear. He had left behind two poisoned guards.
Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi looked at each other in blank dismay. What was going on?
