Shuang Shuo figured it out: there were only two positions where Nangong Chiyu could block his arrows, and this one was right in front of Su Luo.
He never expected that this seemingly frail woman would possess such impressive martial arts skills; he had truly underestimated her.
But what good are martial arts skills when you have to deal with the assassins below and watch out for their arrows? You have to do two things at once.
He even used his men to block the arrows, his eyes filled with coldness. He changed the direction of the arrow in his hand and shot it directly at his assassin.
Su Luo turned her head and saw that the assassin had died at the hands of his own people. The arrow was poisoned, and the man fell to the ground immediately after being hit by it.
She and Nangong Chiyu were surrounded, and only by dealing with the people in the tree could they escape.
She used the assassins to shield her from every angle from which an arrow could hit her, but she never expected that these people would even kill their own people.
Su Luo's prediction was correct. After Shuang Shuo killed the assassin, he loosened his grip while Nangong Chiyu blocked the other two arrows, and a sense of victory welled up in his heart.
This arrow is infused with poison made by its master. If Su Luo is hit by this arrow, she will surely die within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Su Luo couldn't stop herself either, her eyes fixed on the arrow piercing through layers of air, getting closer and closer to her.
"Su Luo!"
Suddenly, she was pushed and fell onto the withered yellow leaves, with Nangong Chiyu's back in front of her.
She looked up at his back and felt that he was exceptionally tall and broad. He knew that the arrow was poisoned, but he still went forward without hesitation and used his body to shield her from the poisoned arrow.
"Prince Yu..."
As he fell, Su Luo's eyes turned bloodshot, and her aura was colder than the Ice Valley. Her killing intent made Shuang Shuo shudder.
Before Shuang Shuo could react, he saw Su Luo raise a black handle-like object towards him.
Before he could see clearly, and because he was far away and didn't hear anything, his arm was shot through.
The bow and arrow he was holding fell to the ground. What on earth was this thing? Its power was so immense. If that arrow had hit him in the chest, he would have been killed instantly.
Su Luo took out the gun she had prepared from her spatial storage. She had installed a silencer on this gun, so it wouldn't make much noise even when fired.
She was incredibly fast; while the people in the trees were still loading their bows and preparing to draw their strings, she fired directly at them.
Both men were shot in the chest and fell directly from the tree, lifeless.
The remaining assassin, seeing his companions dead, turned to flee, but Su Luo had no chance of letting him go. She pointed her gun at his back, and with just one bullet, he was rendered motionless.
Su Luo looked at the tree; there was no one there anymore, so she put the pistol back into her spatial storage.
Nangong Chiyu fainted from poisoning, an arrow piercing his collarbone.
His lips were purple, but thankfully, he was still breathing.
"Prince Yu, Prince Yu, wake up."
Seeing that he couldn't wake up, Su Luo pulled him to a more secluded spot and treated his injuries and detoxified him.
He was tall and heavy, but fortunately Su Luo was strong and pulled him to the base of a big tree.
With such a commotion, no one noticed; the prey must have all gone to the middle of the forest.
Everyone wanted to win the prize, and even the Imperial Guard focused their attention on the middle of the woods.
Su Luo knew that this location was definitely not easy to discover, otherwise Ye Beihan would not have had someone ambush and kill her here.
Su Luo leaned Nangong Chiyu against a tree, loosened his belt and clothes, took out surgical instruments from her spatial storage, and cut open the fabric of his clothes that had been pierced by the arrow.
Below his collarbone, the area around the arrow that pierced his flesh had turned purple. This poisoned arrow had to be pulled out, otherwise the toxins in Nangong Chiyu's body would increase.
If she pulled it out, his blood would definitely spurt out, but Su Luo had no better choice.
If Nangong Chiyu hadn't taken that arrow for her, she would be the one poisoned now.
First, they used silver needles to seal his acupoints and control the toxins in his body. Then, they used silver needles to give him local anesthesia. Finally, they used a scalpel and tweezers to carefully remove the arrow from his chest.
Su Luo was covered in sweat. The moment the arrow was pulled out, a large amount of blood flowed from Nangong Chiyu's wound. At first, it was all dark red poisonous blood. Su Luo did not stop it, but let him expel more poisonous blood from his body.
She stopped the bleeding only after the blood returned to its normal color, and the corners of his mouth, which had turned from purple, became bloodless white.
Su Luo treated his wounds as quickly as possible and then injected him with serum using a syringe.
This serum was something she had painstakingly obtained in her previous life; it was extremely rare, with only three vials available. It could cure poisoning caused by external injuries and the zombie virus.
"Prince Yu...Nangong Chiyu..."
He had lost a lot of blood, but when he heard Su Luo call him, his eyelids still twitched.
This can't go on. Nangong Chiyu needs a blood transfusion. Su Luo doesn't know his blood type, but she has tested her own blood type, which is O.
While the serum serum cleared the remaining toxins from his body, Su Luo took out a vacuum blood bag from her spatial storage.
With her left arm bound and no blood source available, she could only use her own blood to save Nangong Chiyu; she couldn't let Nangong Chiyu die trying to save her.
Watching the blood slowly flowing from the blood bag, Su Luo thought it was somewhat ridiculous. She had just met Nangong Chiyu and an embarrassing incident had occurred. She had clearly been determined to kill him.
Who would have thought that she would use her own blood to save the person in front of her?
Perhaps it was because he had been helping her all along, risking his life to save her several times, that she could see him behind her every time she turned around.
He treated Yi Huan like a father, fulfilling all the things Chen Huaixu had never done for her.
That's why she changed her attitude towards him, Su Luo made up this excuse for herself.
Nangong Chiyu felt his eyelids were very heavy, but he was worried about Su Luo. He didn't know what the consequences would be for Su Luo if he collapsed.
When he regained his senses, he tried with all his might to open his eyes, but it was too difficult. He had never known that his eyelids could feel so heavy.
“Su Luo…”
Hearing him murmur, Su Luo finally looked up at her. She was having blood drawn and could only sit in front of him, unable to move.
"I'm here! I'm fine!"
Upon hearing the voice, Nangong Chiyu knew that Su Luo was not dead, but why couldn't he feel Su Luo touching him? Could the voice just now have been an illusion?
His heart, which had been at ease, tightened again. He was weak all over, but his willpower still allowed him to open his eyes a crack.
Looking ahead, his blurry vision caught sight of Su Luo, who was also looking at him.
In front of Su Luo was a blood bag, with blood still attached to her left arm. What was she doing? Was she bleeding herself?
“Su…”
"I am here……"
He couldn't speak, and Su Luo could only respond to him from afar.
