As the sound faded, the smoke dissipated, revealing Yunzhi's figure.

Seeing Yunzhi completely unharmed, the madman went mad again. He couldn't believe that Yunzhi had so easily neutralized the deadly poison he had spent a year developing. He couldn't accept the fact that Yunzhi's poison skills were still superior to his own.

While Yunzhi was dealing with the madman, Rulan also defeated Qin Zhiming.

She stepped on Qin Zhiming, looking down at him condescendingly, and said, "Second Young Master Qin, a real man has principles. I hope you learn from this and behave yourself. The First Young Master Qin is someone my master wants to protect. If you dare to touch him again, don't blame me for being ruthless. It's hard to make someone live, but it's very easy to make someone die. What do you say?"

Qin Zhiming's face flushed red, whether from shame or anger, it was hard to tell. But whether it was shame or anger, he was still defeated by Rulan.

He always thought he was good at martial arts and that killing Yunzhi would be easy, but he never expected that he couldn't even beat the medicine boy next to her.

Qin Zhiming was furious. Not only was Qin Zhiye alive, but he had also been defeated by a mere apprentice.

Rulan didn't intend to kill him outright, so after warning Qin Zhiming a few times, she released his foot and prepared to let him go.

Unexpectedly, just as she turned around, she heard Qin Zhiming's voice, indicating a sneak attack, coming from behind. Ru Lan's face turned ugly, and without turning her head, she struck out with her palm, sending the person flying.

Qin Zhiming was sent flying to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. This time, Rulan didn't hold back; Qin Zhiming's internal injuries were severe, making it difficult for him to even get up.

Rulan turned around and gave the other person a cold look, saying, "If you want to die, I'll grant your wish."

Qin Zhiming stared at Rulan, opened his mouth as if to say something, but before he could speak, he fainted due to the severity of his injuries.

Rulan ignored the other party and went to Yunzhi's side. Looking at the madman whose face was contorted from the poison, she said, "Master, let's go back."

"Alright!" Yunzhi nodded, got into the carriage, and left with Rulan.

However, not long after the two left, a black carriage stopped. The driver glanced at the madman, then at the unconscious Qin Zhiming, and said a few words to the people inside the carriage.

"Take them away."

Yunzhi returned to the villa, and had only been sitting down for a short while when Rumei came to her side and said, "Miss, the madman and Qin Er have been rescued."

"Really? That's pretty fast."

"Shouldn't we do something?" Ru Mei couldn't help but ask. This madman was so annoying; he always caused trouble for her young mistress. She thought it best to kill him to prevent future problems. But she didn't know what her young mistress was thinking, sparing his life time and time again.

"You have to cast a long line to catch a big fish; just keep an eye on them."

"Yes, this servant will arrange it immediately."

After Rumei left, Rulan couldn't help but ask, "Miss, who do you think rescued them?"

"What's the rush? It will appear when it's meant to," Yunzhi replied with a smile. She was patient and not in a hurry.

She wanted to see who was really saving the madman.

At this moment, in an inconspicuous courtyard, the madman finally recovered from some of the poison and felt better.

So he decided to properly thank the person who saved him. Although he was crazy, he was a person who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment.

Kindness should be repaid, and so should grudges.
