Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Huo Qing finally managed to send Yuwen Ying back to the Chu family army's camp before the agreed time.

"She's the one who cast the curse?" Miao Yucui and Chu Yi were both stunned to see that she was just a young girl.

Even Tuoba Liuli, who rushed over upon hearing the news, was utterly shocked.

She looked to be around sixteen years old, and because she wasn't very tall, she appeared quite petite.

Why would such a young girl use such a terrible Gu poison on Chu Xiaohe?

"It must be her, even if it isn't, it's still closely related to her."

Huo Qing took out a bottle, squatted down, opened the cap, and waved it in front of Yuwen Ying's nose.

Yuwen Ying choked twice, coughing as she regained consciousness.

Seeing that she was surrounded by strangers, she widened her eyes in fright and exclaimed, "Who are you people?"

But she spoke in Khitan, which no one could understand.

Yuwen Ying soon discovered that she was surrounded by people from the Central Plains, and that her hands were tied tightly behind her back.

She's been kidnapped!

"Who are you people? Let me go! If my older brother finds out, he won't let you get away with this! Let me go!"

This time, she spoke in the Central Plains dialect.

Miao Yucui breathed a sigh of relief.

Since they can speak the Central Plains dialect, we can finally communicate.

"Why did you use a curse on Xiao He? What are your true intentions!" Miao Yucui picked her up and threw her onto a chair.

In this way, it became much easier for everyone to talk to her.

Yuwen Ying glanced around the tents and confirmed that they were not the same tents in her own army camp.

She shrank back, glaring at Miao Yucui who had just spoken: "I don't know what you're talking about? Who is Xiao He?"

Huo Qing and Miao Yucui exchanged glances, and Huo Qing nodded.

Miao Yucui immediately came over, picked up Yuwen Ying, and carried her to Chu Xiaohe's tent.

Chu Xiaohe remained unconscious.

Having been in a coma for so many days, his face was even paler than in the previous few days.

Although Tuoba Liuli massaged him every day, his blood and qi were still unable to circulate normally. If he continued to be in a coma like this, even if the Gu poison did not take effect, he would have a hard time getting better.

Every time Tuoba Liuli saw it, she felt an unparalleled pang of heartache.

Yuwen Ying saw it too, and the first thing she did was shake her head: "It's too late!"

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Liuli felt a chill run down her spine: "What do you mean by 'too late'? Is there no way to save you?"

Huo Qing's face darkened, and she said unhappily, "It hasn't been forty-nine days yet, how can it be too late?"

"It hasn't reached the forty-nine days yet, but there are only two days left. How can you reach Ganlu Alliance within two days, bring my sister here, and remove the curse from him?"

"Your sister?" Huo Qing and everyone else were taken aback.

Yuwen Ying looked at Huo Qing, such a big little girl, who was tied up in a strange place, yet she was not scared and cried, and could still talk to them calmly.

That sheer presence alone is worthy of the respect of everyone present.

If Chu Xiaohe's situation hadn't been so critical, even Huo Qing would have thought that this little girl was really quite remarkable.

But now, she truly has no mood to appreciate any of Yuwen Ying's good qualities.

Chu Xiaohe's situation seemed to be worse than she had imagined.

Yuwen Ying quietly observed Chu Xiaohe's expression for a while, seemingly deep in thought.

No one urged her; they just waited quietly.

After a long while, Yuwen Ying said, "It must have been my sister Yuwen Ya who put the poison on him, but she is currently in the Daganlu Alliance, and this person... can't wait any longer."
