How could this be?
If it was only Ning Cheng who had gone missing, then it was possible that that fellow had gone to find the Poison Doctor to detoxify him. But Ning Cheng's guards were actually poisoned and fell to the ground. What kind of situation was this?
In such a short period of time, Bai Yanqing didn't even have time to escape, let alone turn back. Who was the one who poisoned him? Had Ning Cheng been kidnapped?
"Baili Mingxiang, call Xu Donglin over and dispatch men to search the mountain!" Long Fei Ye promptly ordered.
Baili Mingxiang had long wanted to go to Black Tower to check on the situation so she immediately left.
Han Yunxi immediately helped Ning Cheng's two guards to detoxify the poison. These two people couldn't die! If these two died, the misunderstanding between her and Ning Cheng would be huge.
Han Yunxi hurriedly made the two take the medicine and after ascertaining that they were fine, she heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily they had turned back in time, otherwise these two people would have been poisoned to death. She wouldn't be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
The two guards quickly regained consciousness and on seeing Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye, they were terrified but very quickly they knelt down in front of Han Yunxi.
"Princess, I beg you to save Master Ning! Master Ning can't be blind, Master Ning still has to bring his brothers to the battlefield! "
"Princess, you … you can't do this! How can you … "
Before the guard could finish his words, he was scared back by Long Fei Ye's cold gaze. He didn't dare to say anything and just kept on kowtowing, begging Han Yunxi to save Ning Cheng.
Han Yunxi's heart was especially uncomfortable as she said faintly, "Earlier was an accident, I didn't want to kill him. Didn't I come back to save him? Where is he? "
Where was he?
The two guards then realised that Ning Cheng had disappeared and both of them were flustered.
"Master Ning had ordered the archers to chase after Bai Yanqing and he was just standing here? No matter how we persuaded him, he wouldn't leave. "
"This subordinate … how did this subordinate … get ambushed!"
"What the hell is going on?" Han Yunxi glared angrily. She was also anxious. Ning Cheng was not leaving. Was he waiting for her to save him?
"Your subordinate was guarding Master Ning. He fell to the ground after the poison took effect. Your subordinate wanted to send him away, but how … Yes, someone must have sneakily attacked the two of us!" The guard was so anxious that he was a little confused.
Han Yunxi heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, Baili Mingxiang hurried over. "Your Highness, Princess, something has happened! Xu Donglin has been poisoned! "
Long Fei Ye immediately rushed over with Han Yunxi. When they arrived at the black tower, they saw Xu Donglin and several Shadow Guards lying unconscious in the ruins.
"They are poisoned with the same poison." Han Yunxi quickly took out the antidote and fed it to Baili Mingxiang.
After taking the antidote, Xu Donglin and several Shadow Guards waited for a while before they woke up one after another.
"Your Highness, this subordinate brought people over. We were just about to dig out a few beams to take a look inside, but we were poisoned before we could even enter." Xu Donglin hurriedly reported.
"Bai Yuqiao? She's not dead? "Han Yunxi muttered to herself.
"Where's Xiao Yu 'er?" Baili Mingxiang asked anxiously.
Long Fei Ye personally moved a few large beams away with the Shadow Guard and pushed away a few large stones. They saw many guards' bodies and finally found the bodies of the two Shadow Guards who were hiding in the black tower.
However, they searched several times. Xu Donglin and the Shadow Guards even dug up the ruins, but they still did not find the bodies of Bai Yuqiao and Su Xiaoyu.
There was no doubt that the person who poisoned and took away Ning Cheng was Bai Yuqiao!
"That girl is really lucky." Long Fei Ye said.
Han Yunxi was surprised, but she was still somewhat glad. At least Xiao Yu 'er was not dead. At least the person who took away Ning Cheng was not someone else, but Bai Yuqiao, who knew the art of poison.
Although the poison in her golden needle was highly toxic, with Bai Yuqiao's level of poison, it could not be cured. It could still be cured. If Ning Cheng was taken away by someone else, then she would really be dead.
Han Yunxi's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. Thinking back to the moment just now, she sighed incomparably in her heart.
Her injection was purely an accident. It was purely because she found out that Ning Cheng's Torrential Pear Blossom Needles were ineffective. She did it in a panic and did not think much about it. If she had thought about it, she would not have used the needle!
Her poison was ineffective against Bai Yanqing, wasn't it?
Coincidentally, Bai Yanqing had noticed her Torrential Pear Blossom Needles and dodged out of the poison's range. Thus, the needle did not pose any threat to Bai Yanqing, nor did it end up in Bai Yanqing's poison storage space.
That small difference in timing had caused a huge misunderstanding.
Back in Tianning's capital city, Ning Cheng had seen her break through Bai Yanqing's poison arts. He understood the poison storage space and knew that any poison attack would be ineffective against her and Bai Yanqing.
No wonder. No wonder he immediately suspected that her needle had been aimed at him. No wonder he asked her, "Princess, are you that disappointed in me?"
But despite his suspicions, he still stood there waiting for her to come back.
How disappointed must he be when she did not show up?
Han Yunxi looked at the two guards chasing after her. She didn't know how much they could prove for her.
Still, she didn't have time to think about it. Finding the person was more important.
"Xu Donglin, immediately send men to search the mountain." Search the mountain! "Long Feiye ordered coldly.
Bai Yuqiao was probably the only one who knew that she was planning to go to Northern Li to seek refuge with Jun Yi Xie. Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi were most afraid that Bai Yuqiao and Bai Yanqing would join forces. Then Ning Cheng and the Di Clan would be in big trouble.
As soon as Ning Cheng's two guards arrived, Han Yunxi explained the situation. "One of you, go find those archers. They won't be able to catch up to Bai Yanqing. Even if they do, it'll be useless. Have them search the mountain quickly. Maybe they'll be able to rescue Ning Cheng. The other one, hurry back to Myriad Merchant Hall to get reinforcements. The Di Clan needs someone to take charge after such a big incident. "
One of the guards left immediately, while the other knelt down. "Princess, you're the master of the Di Clan! Please take charge of the Di Clan! "
Han Yunxi was speechless. She subconsciously looked at Long Fei Ye, only to see Long Fei Ye looking at the guard with a murderous look in his eyes.
Baili Mingxiang, Xu Donglin, and the others all sensed His Highness's murderous look. Did this guard mean that he wanted the princess to go back?
Just as Long Fei Ye was about to speak, Han Yunxi spoke first. "I'll definitely go back and take charge of the situation. Go back first. If I can't find Bai Yuqiao, I'll return immediately. "
Long Fei Ye immediately gripped Han Yunxi's hand so tightly that it hurt.
"Yes! This subordinate will go back and report this. " The guard didn't know why the princess wasn't in the army and was with the East Qin Crown Prince, but he knew that since the princess came back to take care of Master Ning, it meant that the princess still had the Di Clan and Western Qin in her heart.
Once the guard left, Long Fei Ye couldn't help saying in a cold voice, "You're leaving?"
This fellow, he could remain calm when Bai Yanqing escaped, so why couldn't he remain calm now?
"Long Fei Ye, unless we can save Ning Cheng in a day or two, I have to go back. If Ning Cheng falls into Bai Yanqing's hands, the entire Di Clan will be in danger. There will be a war between Eastern and Western Qin and it will start early! "Han Yunxi seriously analyzed.
God knows what Ning Cheng, that stubborn person, would do after misunderstanding her! What if Bai Yanqing succeeded in driving a wedge between Ning Cheng and himself? What if Ning Cheng was thoroughly disappointed in this Western Qin princess? Would he betray Western Qin? Or join forces with Bai Yanqing? No matter what, Ning Cheng had been kidnapped, the Di Clan was in danger, and Long Fei Ye was in big trouble.
At this juncture, even if she didn't want to go back, she had to. She had to take control of the Di Clan and shoulder heavy responsibilities!
How could Long Fei Ye not understand after Han Yunxi's words? He fell silent, his eyes dark and gloomy. His expression was complicated and no one could tell what he was thinking.
After a long time, he finally spoke. "Let's find the person first!"
"Alright!" Han Yunxi dearly wished they could find the person.
As soon as Long Fei Ye took her in his arms, she muttered, "Feiye, you have to find the person."
In other words, she didn't want to leave.
Long Fei Ye's tone was especially cold. "I didn't agree to let you go. Let's find the person first!"
With Han Yunxi in his arms, he quickly disappeared into the forest. Baili Mingxiang and the Shadow Guard didn't dare delay and followed after them.
Would they be able to find Bai Yuqiao's tracks?
If they couldn't find him, would Han Yunxi go or stay? Would Long Fei Ye have any plans?
Everything was unknown.
Han Yunxi's group searched the mountains and plains for the missing person. News of the explosion at Blacktower had already spread to the surrounding areas, including the Three-Way Black Market's gambling houses.
The Three-Way Battlefield was a sensitive area to begin with, so explosions were even more sensitive. Not only did news spread quickly, but it was also exaggerated by all sorts of suspicions. Naturally, the news had already reached the Three-Way Black Market, which was the most well-informed place.
Gu and Deacon Jin had already fought multiple rounds, but there was still no clear winner. It was now a draw.
Although the two of them were playing with increasing vigor, the spectators had long grown tired and left. It wasn't that they didn't want to know the outcome, but that they were planning to come back in a few days. Based on the current situation, it would take at least three to five days for a victor to be decided between the two of them.
Of course, there were still plenty of people who held on. Even if it was a draw, they didn't want to miss it. After all, it was a rare opportunity to see a peak battle between experts. In the future, they would have plenty of things to talk about in the gambling houses. Mu Ling 'er was definitely Gu's most diehard fan. She was still staring at her Qi Brother and hadn't paid much attention to the gambling house at all …
At this moment, it was time to open the lid again. Unlike the silence from before, many people were chatting while watching.
But Gu Qishao, who was about to open the lid, suddenly sat up and looked behind him. For a moment, the whispering crowd behind him quieted down.
Gu looked at them Coldly and asked, "Who said something happened at Yue Shan's place?"
Yue Shan was where the Black Tower was located.
A middle-aged man answered timidly, "It was me."
"What happened at Yue Shan?" Gu suddenly asked sternly. He stood up and walked over.
The middle-aged man was frightened and answered with a trembling voice, "There was an explosion at Yue Shan's place this morning. Many people said …"
Before the man could finish his sentence, Gu turned around and ran through the crowd to the backstage of the gambling house.
Yue Shan exploded! Other than Ning Cheng's Red Barbarian Cannon, what else could it be? What a Ning Cheng, he actually played such a good show!
Mu Ling 'er was confused at first, but she quickly understood what was going on.
"Qi Brother! Qi Brother, wait for me! "Mu Ling 'er hurriedly chased after him.
However, by the time she reached the backstage of the gambling house, Gu was already gone. Gu couldn't find Ning Cheng. He caught a few people but couldn't get anything out of them, so he went to the main hall of Myriad Merchant Hall.
Mu Ling 'er couldn't find him and also wanted to go to the main hall. However, she was stopped by a few big men just as she was about to leave …
