"Okay, let's exchange!"

Bai Yue placed the scalpel in his hand against Princess Qinghe's throat, then slowly approached until he was only three meters away from the retainer and stopped.

"When I count to three, how about we push the hostage towards each other together!"

Bai Yue stared at the retainer, her voice as cold and clear as a spring.

"it is good!"

After the servant nodded, Bai Yue began to count.

"one!"

"two!"

"three!"

As the numbers fell, both sides almost simultaneously made moves to push the hostages out.

But when the servant pushed Xiaobao out, he suddenly shook his wrist, and then a handful of white powder as fine as dust flew towards Bai Yue's face.

"Oops!"

Although Bai Yue was on guard, she still inhaled a little bit. The powder melted in her mouth, making her heart sink.

She quickly picked up Xiaobao, turned around and tried to escape using Qinggong. However, after running only a short distance, Bai Yue felt as if her limbs were bound by invisible ropes and her strength was gradually draining away.

"Xiaoyi, do you have any medicine that can clear abnormal status?"

Bai Yue, who had lost her strength, half-knelt on the ground, but in her mind she anxiously asked Xiao 1 if he had any medicine to solve her current troubles.

"Hey, of course!"

There was a hint of mischief in Xiao 1's voice.

"This little blue pill is a magical item that can cure all abnormal conditions. It takes 5 minutes to take effect. What's more, the price is very reasonable, only 1000 public opinion points!"

"1000 points, Xiao1, you're sure you're not asking for too much!"

Bai Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.

"Haha, this is a fair trade. After all, you urgently need this medicine right now!"

Xiao 1 smiled proudly, as if all the pent-up anger of the past few days had been released today.

"Okay, deal! Change it for me immediately!"

Bai Yue knew that the situation was critical, so when the small blue pill appeared in her hand, she immediately used her remaining strength to stuff it into her mouth.

As the pill entered his stomach, a cool feeling quickly spread throughout his body, and then something like a countdown board appeared in front of Bai Yue's eyes.

"Well, it's worthy of 1000 points, that's quite thoughtful!"

Bai Yue looked at the countdown board and couldn't help but complain in her heart.

"Sister Xiaoyue, what happened? How did you become like this?"

Xiaobao, who had just escaped from the brink of life and death, looked at Baiyue, whose face was as pale as paper, with a worried look on his face, not understanding why the other party suddenly became so weak.

"It's too late to explain now, Xiaobao, you need to leave here immediately and go find Lord Yun and Grandpa Mo. Tell them not to return to the camp at this moment, because it's really dangerous here!"

Bai Yue looked at Xiao Bao and gave anxious instructions.

"No, I can't leave. If I leave, what will you do, Sister Xiaoyue?"

Xiaobao frowned tightly, then shook his head firmly.

Bai Yue took a deep breath and spoke as if gathering some strength.

"Xiaobao, believe me, I just need a moment's rest and I will recover."

"Leave quickly, it will be too late if you are late!"

As soon as Bai Yue finished speaking, Princess Qinghe and her entourage came over like wolves and tigers.

Princess Qinghe's eyes were as vicious as a snake. She stared at Bai Yue with a cruel smile on her lips.

"Oh? I didn't expect that our noble Crown Princess Chenyun would be in such a miserable state."

"Weren't you very majestic when you held the knife to my neck just now? Why are you kneeling on the ground now? Are you begging for mercy?"

"What can I ask for from someone who doesn't have all my teeth? Am I asking for your teeth to be all missing?"

Bai Yue said as she looked at the countdown board.

"Come here, get me a sharp knife immediately. I'm going to cut off this bitch's tongue, and then slash her face with it piece by piece."

The furious Princess Qinghe gave orders directly to the servants around her.

"Humph, isn't she said to be a fairy? I want to see how she can still call herself a fairy with that kind of face!"

As soon as Princess Qinghe finished speaking, Xiaobao suddenly rushed to her, hugged her legs tightly and said.

"Sister Qinghe, I beg you, don't hurt Sister Xiaoyue. Don't you love Xiaobao the most? You will definitely agree to me!"

"You stinky beggar, who told you to touch me like that?"

Princess Qinghe suddenly screamed and kicked Xiaobao out. After the other party took several steps back, he fell heavily to the ground.

"Damn it, why are there only 2 minutes and 50 seconds left!"

Bai Yue looked at Xiaobao who was struggling to stand up, and her heart was filled with anxiety.

Xiaobao looked at Princess Qinghe with tears of grievance, and said in a trembling voice.

"Sister Qinghe, it's me, Qi Lingbao. Don't you recognize me?"

"Spiritual treasure?"

When Princess Qinghe heard the name, she was stunned at first. Then she looked at Xiaobao, who was wearing tattered clothes, and suddenly burst into laughter, which was full of contempt and ridicule.

"Humph, my little cousin Lingbao is the young master of the Duke of Qi's mansion, he is extremely noble."

"You ignorant brat, how dare you pretend to be a noble? You're courting death!"

Princess Qinghe raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth and said with disdain in her eyes.

"It seems like the master is like the servant. Come on, beat this ignorant little beast to death!"

"Doesn't he want to be a young master? Then let him be reborn into a good family in his next life!"

As soon as Princess Qinghe finished speaking, her servants approached Qi Lingbao with their fists rubbed.

"No! Don't come over here! Sister Xiaoyue, save me!"

Xiaobao was so scared that his face turned pale. He hugged Baiyue tightly, his eyes full of fear and pleading.

"Can't wait any longer!"

Bai Yue made up his mind and gave the order decisively.

"Little Hand, give me an adrenaline shot immediately and go into auto-injection mode!"

"As you command, Master!"

As soon as Xiaoshou finished speaking, a syringe appeared in Bai Yue's hand. She injected it into her arm without hesitation and immediately felt the strength in her limbs returning rapidly.

"Dear player, injecting this drug is harmful to your body... Why don't you wait for that little blue pill..."

Before Xiao 1 could finish his words, Bai Yue had already picked up Xiao Bao, used her Qing Kung Fu skills, and rushed towards the camp gate like lightning.

Her speed was so fast that Princess Qinghe and her group had no time to react. By the time they realized it, Bai Yue and Xiao Bao had disappeared without a trace.

"Asshole! Didn't they say that woman was restrained by the muscle softening powder? How could she still escape with that little bastard in her arms?!"

Princess Qinghe was so angry that her face turned blue, and she yelled at the guests around her.

"I really don't understand the mystery."

The retainer was also puzzled as to how Bai Yue had managed to break free from the restraints of the muscle softener.

"What are you still dawdling about? Go after her!"

Princess Qinghe's face turned pale and she shouted at the group of guests.

"As ordered!"

Although they responded and left, Princess Qinghe didn't know that this group of people had no intention of chasing Bai Yue.

This group of retainers quietly went straight to the wise king. After all, they wanted to report the abnormal situation that happened today to their real master.

"Sister Xiaoyue, are you okay?"

Qi Lingbao, who was held tightly in Bai Yue's arms, asked in a voice as clear as a bell, his eyes sparkling with joy.

"Of course, sister, how could I be defeated so easily?"

Although Bai Yue appeared strong on the surface, the beads of sweat that kept oozing from her forehead exposed her true condition. She knew that this was a side effect of the injected stimulant.

When she arrived at the camp gate, she happened to run into Yun Qingchen and Lao Mo. When they saw Bai Yue and Qi Lingbao, they couldn't help but ask in unison:

"What's wrong with you? Why are you all so embarrassed?"

"Qingchen, Grandpa Mo, you can't go back to the camp now. It's very dangerous there!"

As soon as Bai Yue finished speaking, she felt dizzy. She noticed that the countdown board in front of her had entered the last 10 seconds.

"Abnormal status removal is about to begin, and the player will enter a dormant state."

Xiao 1's voice sounded in Bai Yue's mind, and the voice said it with a hint of teasing.

"Xiao 1, what's going on?"

Bai Yue felt her eyelids growing heavier and heavier, as if she would fall asleep at any moment.

"Thanks to the little blue pill, it's helping you get rid of the aftereffects of the adrenaline stimulant. All you need to do is get some sleep, and you'll be back to normal when you wake up."

Xiao 1 laughed in Bai Yue's mind, as if all this was its credit.

"Oh, it seems these 1000 nominal points were really well spent..."

Just as Bai Yue was about to fall into darkness, she vaguely saw Chu Xingyu's anxious and handsome face. In this brief moment, she couldn't help but think.

"Chu Xingyu's cat is lost again, so maybe he should consider getting a dog!"

When Bai Yue woke up from a deep sleep, she found herself lying on a spacious and comfortable bed.

"Where is this? Oh, and how are Xiaobao and Qingchen doing now?"

As soon as her thoughts became clear, she couldn't help but think of Princess Qinghe, the troublesome woman who was pestering her.

This made her sit up suddenly from the bed, but before she could get up, she heard Yun Qingchen's pleasant voice.

"Xiaoyue, you finally woke up!"

She turned her head and saw Yun Qingchen sitting next to her, his face filled with excitement and joy that was difficult to conceal.

"Qingchen, I'm so glad you're okay."

Bai Yue breathed a sigh of relief and then asked anxiously.

"After I fainted, Princess Qinghe didn't come to cause trouble for you, right?"

"No, after you fell, the scene immediately fell into chaos. Afterwards, Xiaobao, Mr. Mo, and I came to this place together..."

Although Yun Qingchen's tone was calm, Bai Yue keenly noticed that he suddenly clenched his hands into fists, as if hiding some unknown emotions.

"Well, what happened then?"

Although Bai Yue was confused, she still joked to Yun Qingchen in a relaxed tone.

"Hey, after I fainted, the scene became chaotic? Did those beauties think I was attacked by an assassin and stood up for me?"

Before she finished her words, the curtain of the tent was suddenly lifted, and Qi Lingbao, dressed in gorgeous clothes, rushed in front of her like a whirlwind, looking at her excitedly and said.

"Sister Xiaoyue, you finally woke up! We were all so worried about you!"

"Um……"

Bai Yue did not give Qi Lingbao a gentle smile as she did before. She looked him up and down with a scrutinizing gaze, which made Qi Lingbao's heart tighten. He couldn't help but speak timidly.

"Sister Xiaoyue, are you blaming me for not telling you my true identity? I...I really didn't mean it. I just wanted to see you so badly and thank you in person for saving my life that day!"

There was a tremor in Qi Lingbao's voice, and as he spoke, tears began to fall from his eyes.

"Xiaobao, you misunderstood. I'm not angry. I just find it strange that you look so different from how you looked when I rescued you."

Bai Yue remembered that the young master she rescued was pale and thin, and looked like a boy who looked like a little girl.

He looks completely different from the dark-skinned, chubby Xiaobao in front of him.

"Oh, ever since my sister gave me the immortal energy, I've stopped being picky about food and even started loving exercising!"

"My mom and grandma both said that I've changed a lot in the past month. Not only have I grown taller, but I've also become stronger!"

When Xiaobao heard Bai Yue mention this, a proud smile immediately appeared on his face.

"As expected, no matter how strong your memory is, it can't compete with the children's transformational growth period!"

Bai Yue chuckled and shook her head, then asked with concern.

"Xiaobao, are you okay? I remember that Princess Qinghe kicked you in the chest."

"Speaking of which, I really want to thank Sister Xiaoyue for giving me the crane!"

As Qi Lingbao spoke, he took out a flattened straw crane from his arms.

"That bad princess kicked Xianhe right on the spot, so although there are some bruises on her chest, her lungs aren't seriously injured."

Bai Yue looked at the obvious lotus depression on the straw crane, and a hint of doubt arose in her heart.

"This lotus..."

"Noble women would often carve lotus and other floral designs into the hollowed-out soles of their wooden shoes, then place scented powder inside the hollowed-out patterns. With each step a woman took in these shoes, a lotus formed from the scented powder would be left behind. This is known as 'lotus blossoms with every step.'"

Seeing Bai Yue's surprise, Yun Qingchen quickly explained to her.

"Oh? Hollow wooden soles? How painful would that be to kick someone!"

Bai Yue suddenly realized, and then quickly said to Qi Lingbao.

"Xiaobao, come here, let me check you carefully again!"

Bai Yue activated the Traditional Chinese Medicine Compendium as she spoke, and was relieved only after receiving the diagnosis that there was nothing wrong with her internal organs and that she only had bruises on the skin.

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaoyue! The imperial physician has examined me thoroughly and said I only suffered some minor skin injuries!"

"Sister Xiaoyue, you must rest well. You fainted trying to save me!"

Qi Lingbao spoke seriously and concernedly in the tone of a little adult.

"By the way, where is this place and how did I get here?"

Bai Yue, who finally put her mind at ease, now became concerned about her environment.

"This is the tent of our Duke Qi's Mansion. Brother Xingyu brought you here, Sister Xiaoyue!"

Qi Lingbao explained with a smile.

"what?"

When Bai Yue heard Chu Xingyu's name, she was shocked.

She quickly turned her head to look at Yun Qingchen beside her, and saw that although his expression was calm, his eyes were filled with gloom.

"It's over, it's over, another misunderstanding, is God trying to kill me?"
