The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner

Su Yue's expression turned a little colder. When she heard footsteps, Qingshan disappeared into the darkness.

Su Yue was about to leave when she caught sight of a passing maid. Her eyes flashed and she stepped forward to stop her, "Where did you get that hairpin on your head?"

The pink peony hairpin was made by her own hands and given to Su Wan. Su Wan loved it very much and wore it three days out of five.

The maidservant was so frightened that her hands were shaking and she almost couldn't hold the plate. She said timidly, "This... was picked up by me."

"Where did you pick it up from?" Su Yuejian grabbed her wrist tightly, her tone a little anxious.

The maid lowered her head, her voice trembling, "Please spare my life, my lord."

"I'm asking you, where did you pick it up?" Su Yuejian repeated.

"I picked it up from...the green forest opposite the Emerald Lake." The maidservant said in a low voice with her head down.

After getting the answer, Su Yuejian immediately rushed to Cuilin.

It was still the same lush forest, with the breeze blowing and the leaves swaying, but this time Su Yuejian felt that the forest was eerily quiet.

Su Yuejian was about to step in when Qingshan stopped her worriedly, "Princess, there might be a trap. I've already sent a message to the secret guards around the Third Young Master. Why don't we wait for the Third Young Master to arrive and then go find Miss Wan together?"

At a glance, there are dense trees that seem to have no end in sight, and behind the forest are towering green mountains.

Two hours have passed since Gu Xiyue was stung. Although An Ji is quite skilled, he has disappeared without a trace. This can only mean that the person is very powerful.

Although she didn't know whether it was aimed at Su Wan or her, if she delayed for a moment longer, Su Wan would be in danger.

Su Yuejian shook her head and said, "We can't wait any longer. Sister Wan has been missing for a long time. Leave some marks for Third Brother along the way."

After saying that, he walked into the forest without looking back, and Qingshan and Xuanshuang followed closely behind him.

...

Su Wan was awakened by the sound of fighting. She opened her hazy eyes and vaguely saw a man in black fighting with a group of men in black.

The man was seriously injured in many places, but he still held on to his last bit of strength and fought with a knife.

Suddenly, a man in black attacked from behind. The man in black was caught off guard and had to block the heavy knife that was falling on his back.

Su Wan finally regained her sight and saw the person in front of her clearly, "An Ji!"

"Puff--" An Ji spat out a large mouthful of blood, was hit by a palm and knocked into the tree next to Su Wan, falling heavily to the ground.

"Cough... um..." An Ji's face turned pale and he covered his chest and made a sound in pain.

Su Wan helped the weak and seriously injured An Ji up, looking at the blood that kept flowing out of the corner of his mouth, her eyes full of anxiety, "An Ji..."

The leader of the men in black came out leisurely, looked at Su Wan and An Ji, and smiled faintly.

"Su Yuejian actually sent such a master to protect you. In this way, I feel relieved."

The man in the ghost mask in front of him spoke in a terrifying voice, and his eyes were shining with brilliance.

Su Wan's face was stern. She suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and forced herself to calm down. She looked around and saw the deserted woods in front of her. Her hand unconsciously held An Ji's arm tightly.

"Cough..." An Ji coughed up another mouthful of blood, "Miss, run."

Su Wan looked at An Ji's pale face worriedly, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Run?" The ghost-faced man laughed as if he had heard a joke. "Where are you running to? You can suffer less if you behave yourself."

"Who are you? I have no grudge against you, why are you arresting me?"

The ghost-faced man glanced at Su Wan and swung his sleeves impatiently. "There's no hatred, but I'm fishing and I need bait."

Su Wan frowned. Bait?

Thinking back to when he mentioned Su Yuejian just now, a light bulb went off in his head. The person he wanted was Yue'er!

"Get rid of that secret guard, that woman must be kept alive!"

The ghost-faced man's faint voice came.

The veins on An Ji's neck suddenly bulged. He clenched the long knife in his hand, stood up and blocked Su Wan.

The ghost-faced man laughed and said, "As expected of the Lu family army, which is one in a million. Such determination is truly admirable. In that case, don't be polite and give him a good send-off."

Su Wan stood behind An Ji and could clearly see the bloody knife wound on his back, which was so deep that the bone was visible. Her heart trembled.

The man's deep voice came quietly, "Hold me tight."

Su Wan didn't react for a moment. An Ji looked back and saw tears in the woman's eyes, and she looked timid. An Ji frowned slightly.

Looking at the men in black who were attacking him, An Ji didn't have time to think and hugged Su Wan in his arms.

"Miss, I'm offended."

Su Wan's eyes went dark, and she felt her body lighten, and the wind whistled past her ears.

"Ahem... Ugh... Ah..."

"Ahem...ah...it's poison powder..."

The group of men in black didn't expect the man to use such a shady trick, and they fell into the trap without realizing it.

The ghost-faced man covered his face and retreated. After a while, the poisonous fog dissipated, and Su Wan and the black-clad secret guards were no longer there.

Looking at the poisoned guards lying on the ground, the ghost-faced man was furious and shouted, "Useless! Hurry and chase them!"

"Yes!" The other men in black immediately took the order and chased after him.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Wan felt the wind in her ears getting weaker and weaker. She was about to lower her head to look down when she suddenly felt something was wrong.

"boom--"

An Ji fell heavily to the ground, his hands still tightly clasping Su Wan's waist.

Su Wan felt as if her nose had hit a wall, causing her to feel numb with pain. She looked up and saw a long arrow piercing through the man's shoulder and neck.

"Shhhhh-"

Arrows flew towards the two of them. An Ji was agile and rolled over while holding Su Wan to avoid the arrows.

The man in black followed closely. Su Wan helped An Ji to stand up, and the two of them hid in the deep bushes nearby.

"Miss, don't worry about your subordinates, just run."

Su Wan refused sternly, "Stop talking and save your energy."

The two of them tried their best to avoid being chased, "Ah——"

Suddenly, the sand beside the mountain collapsed, and Su Wan missed a step and fell down. An Ji was seriously injured and his reaction was much slower. He was not paying attention and fell down with her.

The man in black who was chasing them watched the two men fall off the cliff. He looked down and saw that although there were trees at the bottom of the cliff, it was dozens of feet deep and there was no way to find a way out, so he could only go back and report.

Upon learning that Su Wan and the secret guard had fallen off a cliff and their lives were unknown, the ghost-faced man's eyes turned fierce.

At this time, a secret guard came quickly and reported, "Master, the fish are here."

The ghost-faced man looked deep in the eyes and gently turned the ring on his hand. It didn't matter if Su Wan was not there. As long as Su Yuejian entered this forest, he would have already laid a net of heaven and earth, and she would not be able to escape even if she had wings!

"do it according to plan!"

The secret guard took the order and left.

Tingfeng on the other side received the letter and immediately reported it to Lu Zhan in a low voice.

Lu Zhan's face changed drastically.

"Brother Lu?" Xie Jiusi noticed that something was wrong with him and asked in confusion.

In just a moment, Lu Zhan's expression returned to normal, "Master Xie, I have some personal matters to attend to. Please forgive me for not being able to accompany you."

Looking at Lu Zhan and Ting Feng hurriedly leaving, Xie Jiusi frowned.
