"Grab her! Don't let her get away!"
Master Ye gave Yan Ning no chance to explain.
He roared at the servants behind him.
"No! Let me explain!"
Yan Ning spoke hurriedly, her voice hoarse.
She wanted to put away the evil spirit, but it was too late.
Several burly servants rushed over menacingly.
The stick in his hand gleamed coldly.
"A fox demon! It's a fox demon possessing..." Yan Ning tried to shout out the truth.
"How dare you spread rumors and mislead the public!"
A servant roared, and a thick stick came crashing down on her shoulder with a whoosh.
The other one reached out and grabbed her arm.
Yan Ning instinctively wanted to dodge, but having just gone through a fierce battle, he was exhausted and his movements were a beat slower.
"Well……"
The stick grazed her arm, causing a burning pain.
At the same time, two large, iron-like hands gripped her wrists tightly.
Po Xie made a "crowd" sound.
He was roughly knocked to the ground.
"Let me go! You've got the wrong person! I'm here to rescue them!"
Yan Ning struggled desperately, but his two fists were no match for four hands.
His arms were tightly twisted by two burly servants, rendering him unable to move.
She looked anxiously at Ye Qingling and Xie Huaiye on the ground.
Their breathing had calmed down a bit.
But she remained unconscious and was completely unable to testify for her.
"Master! Miss seems to have something in her mouth!"
A sharp-eyed maid rushed to Ye Qingling's side and cried out in alarm.
Upon hearing this, Master Ye suddenly looked at Yan Ning.
His gaze was even more terrifying, as if he were looking at a heinous murderer:
"What other poison did you give my daughter?! Tell me!"
Yan Ningxin's heart sank suddenly.
It's over! Life-saving pills are meant to save lives.
At this moment, in the eyes of the furious Master Ye, it became a deadly poison!
She felt ice-cold all over, knowing that no matter what she said at this moment, the other person would not believe her.
The real danger, the threat of the fox demon, has not yet been eliminated.
She found herself in a desperate situation where she couldn't defend herself!
As soon as the servants opened the sacks, they pounced on Yan Ning with menacing expressions.
They should put her whole body in the enclosure and throw her into the pond.
Just then.
"Hmm..." A faint groan was heard.
Everyone froze.
It's Ye Qingling! She actually opened her eyes!
Her face was still as white as paper, but her eyes were definitely open.
She weakly turned her eyes and took in the chaos before her.
The servants grabbed Yan Ning, the sack gaping open.
Her father, Master Ye, stood aside, furious.
"Father..." Ye Qingling's voice was dry and hoarse, extremely weak, "Stop..."
"Ling'er! You're awake?!" Master Ye was both surprised and delighted, and immediately waved his hand, "Stop! Stop it all!"
The servants released the sack, but they didn't hold back in their grip on Yan Ning's hand.
They threw Yan Ning to the ground like a tattered sack.
"Bang!"
Yan Ning groaned, feeling as if her whole body was falling apart.
She had almost exhausted all her strength in dealing with that fox demon, and had no true energy left.
Now, after being thrown so roughly, I'm seeing stars.
I barely have the strength to breathe.
Ye Qingling was carefully helped to sit up by her maid.
She took a few breaths, strained to focus on Yan Ning curled up on the ground, and said urgently:
"Father...you can't arrest her...she, she's my...savior!"
"What?!"
Master Ye's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in disbelief. "Ling'er, explain yourself! She? Saved you?"
"Absolutely true..."
Ye Qingling nodded with difficulty, recalling the thrilling yet hazy fragments of the moment:
"When that thing... left my body, I woke up for a moment..."
She gasped for breath, "I saw... I saw Yan Ning... she was fighting that terrifying fox demon, she was desperately protecting me... then I couldn't hold on anymore and fainted..."
She struggled to raise her hand and pointed at Yan Ning: "Quickly help her up... let her rest... she's injured..."
Master Ye looked into his daughter's earnest eyes.
Looking at the little girl on the ground, barely breathing, my mind was in turmoil.
My savior? This girl?
But my daughter had just woken up, and seemed lucid, not like she was talking nonsense...
"What are you still standing there for!"
Although Master Ye was full of doubts, he dared not disobey his daughter's words and quickly instructed his servants:
"Quick! Help Yan Ning up! Gently! Carry her to the side room! Call a doctor!"
The servants dared not delay and rushed to help Yan Ning.
But Yan Ning had overexerted herself, and that heavy fall just now only made things worse.
She felt dizzy and disoriented.
The surrounding sounds grew fainter and fainter, as if separated by a thick layer of water.
Darkness surged up like a tide.
She was instantly engulfed.
"Girl? Girl, wake up!"
She's fainted!
Yan Ning couldn't hear anything anymore...
I don't know how much time passed.
A faint, pleasant fragrance wafted into Yan Ning's nose.
It's not the scent of flowers, nor is it incense; it's more like...
The smell of clean bedding mixed with sunshine.
It also carries a touch of refined, scholarly elegance.
She struggled to lift her heavy eyelids.
The first thing that catches the eye is the exquisitely carved bed canopy, with light blue gauze curtains hanging gently.
It wasn't a place she was familiar with.
She tilted her head slightly.
A person sat quietly by the bed.
It's Ye Qingling.
She changed into a clean, plain-colored dress.
His face was still pale, but his eyes were clear and bright.
