A short while later, both groups returned.

"Most of them escaped, and those that were captured all bit open their poison sacs and died from the poison."

One person reported to Yi Wubing.

Yi Wu nodded.

"They must be suicide soldiers."

Xiao Qingyin asked Yi Wu, "What are you doing here?"

"A-Jiu told us to follow you because she was afraid you would encounter danger."

Xiao Qingyin felt a warmth in her heart.

I never expected Yi Jiu to make such an arrangement.

This person wrote so many letters, yet still didn't reveal anything.

Before Xiao Qingyin could ask, another group of rescuers took the initiative to report, "We are General Fu's men."

It turns out that Fu Junshi had also secretly left a backup plan for Yun Wanyin and Fu Weiyun.

"Thank you, I really appreciate it today."

Yi Wu and the others naturally told her not to be polite.

"Sister, what are your thoughts on the origins of these people?"

Fu Weiyun pointed to the corpse of the man in black and asked Xiao Qingyin.

Xiao Qingyin's first thought was the heir of the Marquis of Xuanyi.

Before going up the mountain, they had a conflict with the other party, who said "see you later," and may have held a grudge and wanted to take revenge on them.

But these assassins are all elites. If the Marquis of Xuanyi had such a force, he could kidnap people without anyone noticing, without having to take action himself.

Of course, it's also possible that he simply enjoys the hunting process.

The second person that came to mind was Bai Shi. Although Bai Shi always acted like an ordinary widow, Xiao Qingyin always felt that something was off about her.

As for what felt off, she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

I can only say that it's my intuition.

She has always trusted her intuition.

He then said, "We need to investigate to know; we definitely can't guess."
