At Qin Ruoruo's command, the group of ghosts disappeared again along the direction they came from. If it weren't for the corpses they had just killed on the ground, people would probably think that the group of ghosts had never appeared from beginning to end.

After the group of ghosts disappeared, the only targets left for those "bishopless" people were Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan. Then, nearly twenty men in black rushed towards Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan.

Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan had no trouble fighting against these twenty or so masked men. Although Qin Ruoruo didn't know martial arts, she could make poison! The reason she had just asked the guards to take the palace maids away was so that she could use poison without any scruples in this courtyard.

When she received the report from the guards that the "Bishopless" people had arrived, she had just finished discussing with the guards how to deal with the enemies if she and He Fangyan were discovered pretending to be "Yuwen Ran" and "Gu Yanyue".

Unexpectedly, just as they had discussed a countermeasure, the other party came to them. What a coincidence that the plan Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan had just made was for the night, so it was a good opportunity to try whether it worked.

Because the antidote pills that Qin Ruoruo brought from the capital to prevent accidents were running low after the well water was poisoned, Qin Ruoruo asked the group of good guards to quickly deal with the few people on the opposite side and then immediately evacuate the scene and go to the backyard.

The remaining attackers will be dealt with by her and He Fangyan. Although Qin Ruoruo does not know martial arts, she is very good at poison techniques.

After giving her and He Fangyan the detoxification pill, Qin Ruoruo completely let go and took out all the poisons she had at home.

After a few rounds of fighting, only a few of the men in black were left.

Seeing that they were no match for Qin Ruoruo and He Fangyan, the other party reached into their arms, not knowing what they were trying to take out.

He Fangyan was obviously more experienced in this area than Qin Ruoruo. As soon as he saw the other party's move, he immediately shouted, "Ruoruo! We can't give them the chance to use hidden weapons!"

After saying that, He Fangyan floated over like a ghost and took care of most of the remaining people in a few moves. The remaining few were shot by the needles soaked in Ma Fei San by Qin Ruoruo and fell to the ground.

It didn't take long before the group of masked men were all taken care of.

Qin Ruoruo knew that the needles she had soaked with Ma Fei San could not kill people, but could only make them temporarily fall into a coma. This method was taught to her by Gu Yanyue, and it seemed to be quite useful now.

She had been planning to go over and stab them a few more times to prevent them from waking up and being able to escape, but she found He Fangyan standing there staring at her blankly, as if he had just met her for the first day.

She looked down at herself and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Fang Yan?"

He Fangyan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Ruoruo, what kind of hidden weapon did you just use? It's so powerful? With just one casual hit, they all fell down. It's much more effective than the poison needle you used!"

"You mean that one?" Qin Ruoruo smiled lightly. As she walked towards the man in black, she explained to He Fangyan, "That's just a needle soaked in Ma Fei Powder. It can only make people unconscious, not lethal. If I hadn't shot out all the poison needles I made, I wouldn't have used that to deal with those people. Fang Yan, I still have to trouble you to stab them a few more times, otherwise when they wake up, they'll have a chance to escape."

He Fangyan said he understood, and with a few quick steps, he arrived at the bottom of the three black-clothed men who had fallen. He took his sword and stabbed a bloody hole in their hearts. They were indeed dead, and then he returned to Qin Ruoruo, "Ruoruo, it's done."

Qin Ruoruo realized it belatedly and said, "Should Fang Yan keep one of them to torture and ask where their lair is?"

Qin Ruoruo had been fighting all night, and her hormones hadn't subsided yet. When she talked about their old nest, she even seemed eager to try.

He wanted Yuwen Ran and Gu Yanyue to finish their business in Qianzhou and then take people to wipe out their lair to prevent them from suddenly appearing and trying to assassinate them in the future.

He Fangyan shook his head. "I just saw that they were all from the 'No Bishop' group. They're stubborn and generally can't get anything out of you. If you ask them too hard, they might even commit suicide. Besides, you and I have no experience in torture. Even if we catch one, we might not get anything out of him. Let's discuss this later."

Qin Ruoruo had no choice but to give up. He Fangyan pulled her to a small pond in the courtyard and carefully wiped the blood of the men in black off her body. He asked, "Ruoruo, are you injured anywhere?"

Qin Ruoruo changed her hand and replied, "No, Fang Yan protected me very well. I have no injuries at all. What about Fang Yan? Is he injured?"

He Fangyan put down Qin Ruoruo's hand, made an "I am very strong" gesture towards Qin Ruoruo, and said: "Of course I am not injured."

On the other side, Yu Wenran and Gu Yanyue slowly woke up as the effect of the drug gradually wore off.

When Yu Wenran and Gu Yanyue just woke up, they still felt dizzy. It was difficult for them to even open their eyes, and they even felt that their bodies were still shaking.

Didn’t they have dinner, and after the palace maids cleared away the dishes, then...what happened?

The sound of wooden wheels rolling over stones came to her ears. Gu Yanyue's long eyelashes trembled, and she woke up earlier than Yu Wenran.

I was dazed and stunned for a moment, feeling that there was something wrong with the tent roof of this villa. I even felt that it was a little strange. It didn't look like the roof of a carriage... the roof of a carriage!?

Gu Yanyue then realized that something was wrong and struggled to get up, the effect of the drug still lingering on her body.

When she stood up, she almost fell down again. Seeing Yuwen Ran, who was still frowning and unconscious, she reached out and pinched Yuwen Ran's waist hard, which made Yuwen Ran wake up.

The first thing that caught Yu Wenran's eye after he woke up was the roof of the carriage. He looked at Gu Yanyue next to him, who also looked like she didn't know what was going on. Then the two of them looked at each other, trying to recall what had happened in the villa last night?

The noise Gu Yanyue made calling Yuwen Ran to get up was so loud that it startled the guards outside. One of them lifted the curtain of the carriage and said to Yuwen Ran and Gu Yanyue, "Your Majesty, your Highness, you are finally awake! We are almost at the border of Qianzhou, and we will be able to reunite with Lord Yao soon."

Qianzhou? Border?
