The two fought almost hand-to-hand at close range. No matter how Bai Fei attacked, she was always entangled by her opponent's hands, which were as nimble as snakes.
At first, she was able to quickly change her moves and keep attacking, but later she was entangled by her opponent, and her space to dodge became smaller and smaller. In the end, her hands were completely controlled and she could not move at all.
She had never been so close to a man before. Feeling both ashamed and anxious, and unable to move her hands, she lifted her leg and thrust it hard into his lower abdomen.
But since the Feathered Robe Silk Entangling Hand specializes in close-range entangling and grappling, how could it be without a countermeasure for such an attack?
Zuan also raised his leg to block, then kicked her leg in the bend, directly spreading her legs apart.
Bai Fei twisted and turned; she was incredibly flexible, contorting her waist and body at unbelievable angles, but she still couldn't escape Zu An's control.
On the contrary, the close physical contact caused her to blush.
Zu An laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you're out of options now, aren't you?"
Just as he was about to continue negotiating with her, Bai Fei suddenly smiled charmingly, and then exhaled a breath of pink mist from her cherry lips, which was sprayed directly onto Zu An's face.
Caught off guard, Zuan blushed an unnatural red, then swayed and collapsed limply to the ground.
"Hmph!" Finally freeing herself from his grasp, Bai Fei snorted and then couldn't help but kick him. "You stinky man!"
"Weren't you so smug just now? Why aren't you moving?" Bai Fei looked sullen, thinking to herself that she had suffered a great loss in their close combat.
She lifted her skirt and squatted down beside him, pulling out a dagger from somewhere. She brandished it at Zu An's neck several times, and seeing that he didn't react, she finally relaxed: "He really passed out. Hmph, you'll suffer enough from my Rose Red Dew."
Then she was caught in a dilemma: "Should I kill you or not? If I don't kill you, this guy is too smart, and I'll be in danger in the palace. If I kill you, the sect leader will probably be angry, right? And then there's my junior disciple Hong Lei. Ugh, this is such a headache."
"If this is such a headache, it's better not to kill him." At that moment, a mocking male voice came to her ear.
Bai Fei was startled, her face paling as she hurriedly swung her dagger at Zu An's neck, but she was too late. She felt a numbness in her chest, and then the acupoints on her body were sealed.
Zu An chuckled as he got up from the ground, looking at the beautiful woman before him with a hint of anger: "Your Majesty, you just kicked me a few times. Tell me, how should I get revenge?"
Consort Bai looked shocked: "Why didn't you faint?"
Given the close proximity and the intense fighting they had just endured, his breathing must have been rapid, so it's impossible that he didn't inhale the poisonous fumes she sprayed.
Even a tiny amount of her secret medicine can instantly induce unconsciousness.
"This person has always been lucky." Zu An secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had just broken through to the third level of the "Primordial Chaos Scripture" and was now immune to all poisons. Otherwise, he would have really been hit just now.
"What's the deal with this poison?" Zu'an asked curiously.
Bai Fei snorted and ignored him completely.
“I can guess even if you don’t tell me.” Zuan used the true energy of the Primordial Chaos Scripture to sense it. Although he couldn’t completely reverse the analysis, he could still roughly analyze the toxicity and uses.
"Huh, this poison doesn't actually harm the human body; it only causes unconsciousness and hallucinations." Zuan was somewhat surprised. "Why would you use such a harmless poison as your trump card?"
"Mind your own business!" Bai Fei was both angry and regretful. If she had known this would happen, she should have just slit his throat. Humph, she didn't know how this guy got so bold. She had the knife to his neck and he didn't react at all. Only then did she believe that he was really poisoned.
Anger from Bai Rouxue: +233 +233 +233...
“For some time now, the Emperor has been sending people to investigate who the Demonic Cult’s mole in the palace is. After much investigation, they found out it was General Cheng Xiong and his son,” Zu An smiled. “But I know they aren’t the ones in question, so I’ve always been very curious about who is tipping off the Demonic Cult.”
“This person’s status can’t be too low, otherwise he won’t know some core secrets, such as the emperor’s whereabouts, the palace’s defenses, etc. But if his status is too high, I can’t understand why he would help the Demonic Sect.” Zu’an looked at Bai Fei, “So it turns out it was you, Your Highness.”
He had pretended to be unconscious to try and get some information while the other side was off guard, but he never expected to get such important information.
Consort Bai was filled with regret. Why had she been talking to herself like that? But she quickly calmed down: "Hmph, speaking of collaborators with the Demonic Sect, am I the only one in this palace? Lord Zu, didn't you also collude with the Demonic Sect? You even saved the Demonic Sect leader and the Holy Maiden."
Zu'an wasn't too surprised. It was easy to hide these things from others, but it would be a bit difficult to hide them from her, the top spy of the Demonic Sect. You see, Yun Jianyue had been living in his White Sand Courtyard during that time, and he was often away, so the two of them must have been in secret contact long ago.
By the way, back then, Consort Bai bestowed upon her a whole bunch of things. Now that I think about it, Yun Jianyue's reaction at the time was a bit strange. That must have been the beginning of their rendezvous.
Zu An smiled and said, "Does Your Highness think that because of this relationship, I will let you go? If I just kill you, no one will know about these things, wouldn't I be safer?"
Bai Fei looked at him quietly, and after a long while said, "Actually, you don't need to scare me like this. How could the person chosen by the sect leader and the holy maiden be such a despicable and shameless person?"
