"New grudges and old hatreds, whatever."
Yuwen Yao said.
Xie Lingqin's brows furrowed with a cold light, her eyes filled with murderous intent. "Killing Yuwen Xian is not easy, let alone at this time... uh..."
Before Xie Lingqin could finish speaking, she suddenly raised her hand to her chest, her complexion, which had regained its rosy hue after soaking in the hot spring, suddenly turned pale.
Yuwen Yao immediately took her pulse.
"Don't panic, it's just the poison taking effect."
Xie Lingqin waved her hand, signaling Yuwen Yao not to be nervous.
"I'll help you suppress it with my internal energy."
Just as Yuwen Yao was about to raise his hand to release his inner force, he seemed to think of something and slowly lowered his hand again. "Xu Yiran just used his inner force to help you suppress it. My cultivation method is different from his. If the two clash, it will be a loss. I'll go find Yuwen An to get the antidote."
"No need. It's not even been three months yet. I'll just be in pain for a while, I won't die. Let's deal with Yuwen Xian first and rescue Ning Yi and Zi He."
Xie Lingqin frowned and tried to stop him, but Yuwen Yao looked at her and knew he couldn't persuade her otherwise. However, he still patted her back to show her some understanding before secretly leading his men to the Prince Xian's residence.
...
The Prince Xian's Mansion.
Yuwen Xian had been badly injured by Yuwen Yao, and his complexion had not improved since he returned to the manor. Now, listening to the watchman's drumbeats outside and looking at the horizon, his expression was dark and complicated.
Xie Lingqin, I'm actually a little relieved that you're not dead. But if I can't have you in this life, I won't let you have an easy time either.
Ning Yi and Zi He are still in my hands.
"Your Highness, since Miss Xie is alright, she will probably find out soon that we kidnapped Ning Yi and Zi He, and she will likely come looking for us."
Behind him, Qingyi said.
Yuwen Xian was well aware of the Crown Prince and Xie Lingqin's methods. He couldn't protect the people, but he needed to use them to gain some leverage.
He'd better make some profit after such a failure tonight.
"Tell the men below to keep a close eye on Zihe and that kid, treat them well, and wait for my instructions."
"yes."
Qingyi withdrew.
...
In the dimly lit prison cell.
Ning Yi had already fallen into a coma due to excessive blood loss, and Zi He was also seriously injured, unable to move easily, and his face was deathly pale.
"The prince just gave instructions to treat them well."
"real."
"certainly."
"Haha, it's been a while since I've had a 'dizzy' car. I just thought that woman was pretty."
"Alright, you go first..."
"Haha, don't worry, I'll be quick..."
As the menacing conversation began, two guards approached from the other end of the passage. In the dim light, their laughter was lewd and disgusting.
Zihe frowned slightly, "You're incredibly audacious. I advise you to stop, or you'll suffer a terrible death."
"Hehehe, you're still saying you're in a bad state even now? Don't worry, we'll take good care of you."
"Quick, apply pressure to her acupoints."
With a flick of his finger, Zihe was completely immobilized and could only watch helplessly as two men, drooling, pounced on her.
