Xiao Tang exclaimed, "Watch out!"

At the same time, the system emitted a long "beep" sound.

The knife was poisoned when it was used to stab!

She quickly grabbed Di Jingling and moved aside.

The venom on the long sword gleamed eerily in the sunlight.

Sizzle!

The sharp blade grazed Xiao Tang's sleeve.

My arm was suddenly cut open.

Blood instantly stained a corner of his sleeve.

As the man regained his senses, he immediately kicked the assassin away.

Yan Shi and Ru Yi followed from a distance, but by the time they realized that the princess and the prince had been assassinated, it was too late.

Fortunately, Di Jingling never showed any mercy when he took action.

He grabbed the assassin's knife hilt with his backhand and plunged the poison-covered blade into the assassin's chest.

The retaliation could happen in an instant.

The man's fall startled passersby.

It just didn't cause a big stir because there were few pedestrians on the road.

Xiao Tang turned her head to look at her arm and gently pursed her lips.

[I was just a millimeter away from being scratched.]

[Beep beep, host, detoxify quickly!]

So you finally remembered you're a detoxification system? Ha!

[Beep beep, host, quickly detoxify, otherwise you will die from the poison within half an hour.]

Xiao Tang really wanted this babbling system to shut up.

The fastest way is to expel the venom before it enters the body through the blood vessels.

Tear—

Someone was faster than her and tore a large hole in her sleeve.

Xiao Tang stared in astonishment at Di Jingling, who had made his move.

You're so excited...

Just as I was thinking this, suddenly, a warm, soft touch landed on the wound.

The soothing sensation made Xiao Tang's scalp tingle.

He... actually let her suck his poisonous blood?

Xiao Tang didn't dare hesitate for a moment, and quickly tried to pull her arm back, intending to push him away...

He gripped her arm even tighter.

"Awoooooo..."

It hurts!

[Waaaaah, I know you, the big villain, won't show any mercy to women, but I'm only doing this for your own good! This is poisonous blood!]

[A normal person doesn't use their mouth, you, you, you, shut up!]

Hearing her cries of pain and gasps for breath, Di Jingling knew he had hurt her. His handsome face behind the mask was solemn and annoyed.

That wasn't his intention!

He loosened his grip slightly, and his tone became gentle, even to his own surprise.

"Sorry, I'll be gentle."

Xiao Tang's eyes were red and swollen.

She wasn't being loved.

Rather, they were numbed by the poison.

[Damn, I want to sing "Cool" to myself right now...]

However, the man still seemed unwilling to give up on sucking out her poisonous blood.

If there hadn't been so few people on the streets, the whole of Youcheng would probably be buzzing with the news by tomorrow that this little imperial envoy was gay...

Whether it was the poison or the man, the numbness throughout her body grew stronger and stronger.

As a result, my brain started to feel numb.

Just before she fainted and collapsed, she seemed to catch a glimpse of panic and worry in the man's deep black eyes.

[Hmm, I won't die...]

"Tangtang".

As she drifted into a firm, warm embrace, Xiao Tang wondered if she had simply fainted and was hallucinating.

How could she have heard that gentle voice calling her "Tangtang"...?

...

[Beep—]

The detoxification system will automatically detoxify the host. Please select "Yes" or "No".

Xiao Tang: [...]

She was unconscious.

The system's voice kept beeping in her head, and she felt extremely uncomfortable even while unconscious.

Damn system!

[…Select Yes.]

[Host, have you thought this through? The system will detoxify you automatically, but there will be a price to pay.]

[...]

What other cost could there be?

She would have had a hard time surviving this acute poison if she hadn't had a universal antidote.

There had been similar emergencies before, and the system had given her the same choice. She chose "yes" without hesitation.

The price to pay was, of course, being sent by the system to a remote mountainous area to treat a hundred people and eliminate the effects of the system's self-detoxification.

At this point, she became numb.

Therefore, she was indifferent to this so-called "price".

[Hurry up, stop talking nonsense, I'm dying!]

[This nine-poison water can kill people, do you want to die? Even if I die, I'll turn into a system and make you pay!]

[Beep, detoxification function activated. Please remain calm.]

Over here, Di Jingling heard Xiao Tang and the system's thoughts, and looking at Xiao Tang lying unconscious on the bed, it was as if her body and soul had been forcibly separated...

That's incredible.

Can a person in a coma still communicate with the system in their mind?

He noticed a fine sheen of cold sweat on the woman's forehead and quickly raised his sleeve to wipe it away for her.

However, the more she wiped, the more cold sweat she broke out in.

The more the man looked, the angrier he became.

He raised his sleeve and gently stroked her forehead.

After the system detoxified her, Xiao Tang felt much better.

When she opened her eyes, all she saw was a black brocade cloth covering her face.

She struggled to pull it open.

A ghost mask magnified countless times in front of her.

If I hadn't been mentally strong, I would have been scared to death.

She gave a weak smile, "My lord~ I'm alright, are you... are you alright?"

Moreover, it sucked the poisonous blood.
