Zhan Yan smelled a strong smell of kerosene wafting towards his nose. He subconsciously looked outside and found that many men in black were pouring into the carriage.

He said anxiously, "Wanwan, we have to leave the carriage. That bastard Pei Jue is going to set it on fire!"

Lin Yiwan immediately hugged his waist and they both jumped down quickly.

Almost as soon as the two men rolled to the ground, a flaming feather arrow hit the carriage, which exploded with a loud bang and then burst into flames.

Pei Jue, dressed in black, appeared not far away with a gloomy expression. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Originally, I wanted to keep you for a few more days, but I didn't expect that you would actually seek death. Don't blame me for being rude. Today is the day you and your wife die!"

Zhan Yan protected Lin Yiwan behind him and said, "Pei Jue, do you know how serious a crime it is to collude with the remnants of Qin Tianhao? If you plead guilty now, the emperor may spare your life because of his high regard for you!"

"Bah!" Pei Jue interrupted angrily.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Our Pei family was loyal to him, but what happened to us in the end? Just because we offended Prince Li, we were exiled and then all died there. Why?"

When Zhan Yan saw his scarlet eyes, he knew that there was no way he could be persuaded to come back.

The fighting around them was still going on, and Yingyi and Yinghun were obviously injured.

Pei Jue was not vague and immediately ordered the men in black standing behind him to attack Yan and Lin Yiwan.

Even though Zhan Yan had to fight the enemy with one hand, he still protected Lin Yiwan tightly.

Pei Jue, who was standing not far away, suddenly had a black scepter in his hand. He aimed it at Zhan Yan and pressed it lightly, and countless butterfly blades shot out.

Lin Yiwan exclaimed: "Ah Yan, be careful!"

Zhan Yan suddenly hugged her, and then a muffled groan was heard.

Lin Yiwan looked closely and found that two butterfly-like blades had pierced his arm, and a lot of black blood was gushing out.

She realized it was poisonous and immediately stuffed a pill into Zhan Yan's mouth.

Zhan Yan soothed her gently, "Don't be afraid, Wanwan. I can protect you. I'll pounce on Pei Jue later. Run away quickly and run to find your father!"

Lin Yiwan wanted to say no, but she also understood that now was not the time to show off!

She was physically disabled and would only be a burden if she stayed with him.

She nodded vigorously, and saw him tremble with energy. He turned around and stabbed the killer who was close to him to death. Then, like a leopard hunting its prey, he jumped up fiercely and rushed towards Pei Jue who was surrounded and protected by the killers.

Pei Jue shouted in shock and anger: "Hurry up and save me!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yiwan ran away.

She has been very delicate lately, even needing someone to support her when she walks.

But at this critical moment, she was walking as fast as flying.

She ran towards the palace without any hesitation.

Pei Jue spotted her immediately and quickly ordered, "Go after her! Don't let her go get help! Otherwise, you'll all die here!"

Several killers chased after Lin Yiwan, but were stopped by Zhan Yan.

He was stabbed repeatedly, and his blue clothes were gradually stained with bright red.

Even though he used a series of killing moves, there was still a killer who dodged the attack and quickly chased in the direction of Lin Yiwan.

Zhan Yan's face suddenly changed, and he vomited blood because of anxiety.

Pei Jue couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Zhan Yan, aren't you known as the God of War? How come this little assassin got you hurt?"

Zhan Yan's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He swung his sword and pierced Pei Jue's arm.

"Bastard!" Pei Jue cursed in pain.

He bared his teeth and ordered, "What are you all standing there for? Kill him, kill him now!"

Zhan Yan quickly snatched the sword from a killer beside him, his face full of worry.

He was worried about Wanwan. Didn't a killer just chase her? How is she?

He didn't dare to delay and turned around and ran.

Even though the long sword pierced his back, he did not stop.

When he turned the corner, he saw Lin Yiwan coming with Prince Li.

There were many guards following behind the two men, and they immediately rushed into the fighting.

Zhan Yan relaxed and, regardless of the blood all over his body, he hugged Lin Yiwan tightly: "Wanwan!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he spat out a lot of black blood.

"Ah Yan, how are you?" Lin Yiwan's pretty face was full of anxiety.

Zhan Yan wanted to comfort her, but his throat felt like it was blocked by cotton and he couldn't say a word.

He had no choice but to raise his rough fingers to touch her little face and give her a soothing smile.

Lin Yiwan held his hand tightly and supported him.

Prince Li suddenly said, "Come here, quickly send Marquis Zhan Yi to Prince Li's mansion. I will stay here to clean up the mess!"

After saying that, he hurriedly drew his sword and killed him.

After Zhan Yan was brought back to Prince Li's Mansion, he fell into a coma. He was seriously injured, with wounds all over his chest and back.

Lin Yiwan felt very distressed and immediately gave him medicine to stop the bleeding.

However, after taking his pulse, they found that he was extremely weak.

As a doctor, Lin Yiwan naturally understood that there was only one reason for this situation, that is, he was poisoned.

She couldn't figure out what kind of poison he had been poisoned with, as she had never seen such a condition before. She only saw that his face was a horrifying dark blue, but his lips were as bright as blood.

She did not dare to hesitate and immediately ordered someone to go to the mansion to invite the Poison King Mu Yi.

Mu Yi could tell at a glance what kind of poison Zhan Yan had been poisoned by. He immediately took out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "This antidote of mine can only protect his heart meridians from being invaded, but if you want to detoxify him, you must find a medicinal lead!"

Lin Yiwan asked in surprise, "Isn't that poison-swallowing ice toad okay?"

Mu Yi shook his head: "Ice Toad is used for cold poison, but the one that the Marquis was hit by this time was the Red Flame Poison, which is of the fire nature!"

Lin Yiwan frowned and asked, "What is the medicine lead?"

Mu Yi replied, "It's a red flame snake. Its body is blood red and it likes to haunt cliffs. The poison that the Marquis was poisoned with was extracted from its slough!"

Lin Yiwan immediately said, "Then I'll go find it now!"

Lin Su, who had just stepped in, was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground. She hurriedly tried to stop him: "Wanwan, you're in such a state now. How can you go to the cliffs to look for poisonous snakes?"

Lin Yiwan said, "It's not me alone. Mu Yi is following me, so don't worry!"

How could Lin Su feel at ease? If she was in good health, she would never stop her. But her belly was as big as a basin now, and it was difficult for her to just walk, let alone climb the cliffs, which was really dangerous.

She said quickly: "Let Mu Yi take the others there, and you stay in Prince Li's mansion!"

Mu Yi said with some embarrassment: "Reporting to Princess Li, the Marquis's wife must go, because the red flame snake likes the scent of pregnant women. If she follows us, it will be easy to find its trace!"
