Even if they were, the children of the Su family would die together!
Su Miaoyan tried to break free from Xiao Yuâs grasp, but the moment she turned around, Xiao Yu coldly threatened her, âIf you turn back, Iâll blow up this passage immediately.â
If Su Miaoyan didnât follow him, everyone would die!
âHandsome brother, youâ¦â
Su Miaoyanâs eyes widened with fear. Why was Xiao Yu, besides being handsome, so frightening now?
âMiss Miaoyan, just listen to the young master! Itâs an army, not just ordinary assassins. There are thousands of soldiers. If you donât know martial arts, youâll only drag Miss Su down to her death. Follow the young master down the mountain. At least protect yourself first before thinking of a way to save Miss Su!â Xiao Si tried his best to persuade her.
Others might not understand, but he knew very well that if Su Miaoyan dared to go back, Xiao Yu would indeed blow up the passage.
He might look cold, but the ruthless streak in him had always been there.
Su Miaoyan took small steps and returned to Xiao Yuâs side, but she didnât dare to let him hold her hand again. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Luckily, they were fast, and the exit at the foot of the mountain went unnoticed by the Imperial Guards. Xiao Yu successfully got her onto the carriage back to Qilin Garden.
Meanwhile, Su Yingxue and the others had just entered the passageway.
Qin Muyan refused to leave without her. To save his life, Su Yingxue had no choice but to go down the mountain with him.
Saint Ruan spread poison all the way. Su Yingxue instructed him not to be in the cave so that Chu Yihan could leave safely. Saint Ruan wiped the dust off his face. âChu Yihan wonât come this way. If the enemy finds out, weâll be in trouble!â
As they talked, the sound of footsteps echoed from the cave entrance.
âTheyâre there, quick, chase them!â Armed men came pouring in. Fortunately, Saint Ruanâs poison incapacitated them one by one, and they didnât dare to chase too fast.
Su Yingxue and Qin Muyan successfully descended the mountain.
Qin Muyan had lost a lot of blood on the way. No amount of Blood Clotting Grass could fully seal his wounds.
Su Yingxue examined his wounds and frowned. âI have to suture your wounds first, or youâll bleed to death.â
âNow?â Wei Jue was shocked. âBut weâre not safe yet. We could be hunted down at any moment!â
âWe should hurry up and escape now!â
âIâll try to move as fast as possible, but you all must stay vigilant!â Su Yingxue said firmly.
Su Yingxue looked at Qin Muyanâs gruesome wounds, already taking out the silver needles and thread. She squatted beside Qin Muyan, closed her eyes, and entered the Medicine King Valley in her mind. She heated the silver needles and also gathered plenty of Blood Clotting Grass. After crushing it, she brought it out.
âHey, you rushed in here without even sparing a glance at me?â Little Ginseng complained in Su Yingxueâs mind.
It had been a long time since it had played with Su Yingxue. Su Yingxue hadnât come to chat with it lately, except to gather herbs. It was too boring!
âIâm busy right now!â Su Yingxueâs forehead glistened with sweat as she threaded the needle swiftly.
âTheyâre getting closer! Weâre surrounded! If you stitch now, weâll all die here!â
Saint Ruanâs lightness skill allowed him to dash. He had darted around, exploring the surroundings thoroughly. Everywhere he looked, there were soldiers in black armor. If they didnât run, they would soon become victims under someone elseâs blade.
âNo! If we donât stitch his wounds, heâll bleed out soon!â Su Yingxue applied the crushed Blood Clotting Grass to Qin Muyanâs wounds.
The pain jolted him awake.
