However, the timing of the lotus poisoning varies from disciple to disciple, which is a secret unique to each of them.

The reason the other party was certain that Jiang Yunying's poisoning would occur on the night of the new moon was because they happened to encounter her poisoning when they stole the Iron Certificate last time.

The moment the enemy appeared, Jiang Yunying knew that the timing of the poison's onset had been revealed, which is why she said those words to Xiao Huan.

Even so, Jiang Yunying showed no panic. Instead, she gave a faint, bitter smile and swallowed three gray pills in one gulp.

This time, Jiang Yunying was poisoned by water, and she needed a gray pill with earth attributes to resist it.

The first pill I took was to suppress the toxicity, while the three pills I'm taking now are to forcibly stimulate my strength.

"It's useless. Three antidotes will only allow you to exert 60% of your strength. You're still no match for us, unless..." The leader continued to sneer, certain that Jiang Yunying would be captured alive and then placed under the control of the Lotus Palace.

"Unless you take five antidotes at once?" Jiang Yunying sneered, swallowing the last two gray pills as she did so.

Upon seeing this, the six men in black were all stunned, speechless, and exclaimed, "Are you crazy? Don't you want to live anymore?"

Each pill restores 20% of her strength, and five pills can instantly bring Jiang Yunying to her peak condition. However, after the effects of the pills wear off, her body will suffer a backlash from the lotus poison, which cannot be suppressed no matter how many antidotes she takes, and it is almost equivalent to death.

"You're the ones who don't want to live!" Jiang Yunying suddenly exuded a chilling killing intent, her figure flashing as she appeared abruptly in front of someone, displaying her Lotus Flower Sword Technique to its fullest extent.

Caught off guard, the man staggered backward, dodging the cold sword strike, but was still kicked out of the window and crashed heavily to the ground.

Jiang Yunying burst out of the window, her long sword aimed directly at the man.

She was well aware of her physical condition. Even if her strength was forcibly stimulated, she couldn't maintain it for long. She had to finish the battle quickly, and the best way was to defeat them one by one.

"Not good!" The others panicked, only then realizing Jiang Yunying's intention, and instantly used their "Seeing Through the Fog" technique.

These people were also quite fast. The strongest one used a flying sword to aim directly at Jiang Yunying's back. Although he didn't hurt her, he successfully saved the person lying on the ground.

Under the cold night sky, everything was pitch black, except for the cold glint of Jiang Yunying's sword held horizontally.

The six men in black huddled together, ready to face Jiang Yunying's most lethal attack.

At the same time, Lin Ping walked to the door with a puzzled feeling, sensing that something big was about to happen, and muttered to himself, "I'll risk it, at worst I'll get beaten up."

Clearly, Lin Ping was determined to find Jiang Yunying, even if it meant being attacked by the "Black Tiger Digs Out the Heart" fist technique.

"Young master, please go back quickly." Xiao Huan ran over in a panic, her voice trembling with tears.

This young lady is Jiang Yunying's personal maid, not his own concubine. She appears before him most likely to convey Jiang Yunying's wishes.

From Xiao Huan's panicked expression and sobbing voice, Lin Ping knew something was wrong and quickly asked, "What happened?"

"Don't ask, son-in-law. The princess told you to stay in your room and not come out no matter what happens," Xiao Huan said, choking back tears. Even she didn't know what would happen.

"The princess also said that if you remember your feelings for her, you should help the Marquis's mansion from now on, and you must not lose your composure because of what happened tonight." Xiao Huan hurriedly conveyed Jiang Yunying's meaning, and did not forget to add some of her own thoughts.

Lin Ping felt increasingly uneasy as he listened, when suddenly a thought struck him, and he shouted, "Oh no! My wife is in danger!"

Hearing this, Xiao Huan cried even harder, stammering, "The princess vomited blood, and her face looked terrifying."

"Spitting blood? What happened?" Lin Ping felt another pang of fear. He had thought that the Lotus Palace disciples had come to cause trouble, but he did not expect Jiang Yunying to spit blood in advance.

Now that things had come to this, Xiao Huan dared not hide anything from Lin Ping and quickly said, "The princess often vomits blood and has to take a certain kind of pill every time. She also specifically told Xiao Huan not to tell the young master."

"Oh dear! Lin Ping, you're so stupid!" Lin Ping stomped his feet in frustration, regretting that he hadn't noticed Jiang Yunying's discomfort earlier. He, who always prided himself on being a famous doctor, couldn't even detect his wife's illness. It was both laughable and pathetic.

"Little Li!" Lin Ping shouted angrily.

Li Mingxuan was not far from Lin Ping, and he ran over despite his aching body, so he naturally realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Go find Pang Xingji and have him gather all the guards in the Marquis's mansion as soon as possible!" Lin Ping said anxiously, then rushed towards Jiang Yunying's boudoir, completely ignoring Xiao Huan who was chasing after him.

"Wind, Flowers, Snow, and Moon!" Jiang Yunying, who was fighting to the death, kept using her ultimate moves, and the silver net woven from sword energy fell down little by little.

The six men formed a circle around the city, gripping their swords with both hands, using every trick in the book to break through the enemy's defenses. The crisp sound of metal clashing echoed continuously in the courtyard.

Even with the combined strength of six people, they were unable to completely break through the "Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon" sword technique.

"Withdraw from the Sword Net and wear her down!" Lin Xiaomei, whose face was covered, hurriedly said. Not long ago, she had witnessed Jiang Yunying's terrifying power and knew about the suppression of levels.

Therefore, the best approach is not to confront Jiang Yunying head-on, but to stall for time, since she is only relying on medication and cannot sustain this for long.

The others nodded in agreement, exerted all their strength to temporarily force the sword net back, and then scattered and fled, surrounding Jiang Yunying.

"Seeing flowers through the mist!" Before Jiang Yunying could retract her powerful sword move, the six people had already launched their most ferocious attack at the same time, their swift figures constantly shuttling around Jiang Yunying.

Left with no other choice, Jiang Yunying could only carefully observe, waiting for the enemy to launch a surprise attack so she could strike and kill them.

"Seeing Flowers Through the Mist" is a combination of sword techniques and movement skills. It relies on rapid movement to create illusions, making it impossible for the enemy to discover the true location of the user.

However, the main body will briefly appear when launching an attack, and if the opponent is a more powerful expert, it is very likely to be killed in return.

Therefore, the six men chose to surround Jiang Yunying without attacking, neither allowing her to escape nor revealing any weaknesses. Although this greatly depleted their physical strength, it was still better than Jiang Yunying being under the influence of drugs.

Moreover, although Jiang Yunying appeared motionless, she was actually highly focused and exhausted. In just a short time, her breathing became disordered, and she even broke out in beads of sweat the size of soybeans.

As her physical strength continued to deplete, Jiang Yunying became somewhat anxious.

She originally intended to risk the backlash to kill all the enemies, which would have been a major problem for Lin Pingjie, but she didn't expect the enemies to be so cunning that killing even one person would be difficult.

Suddenly, Jiang Yunying's lips curled into a cold smile. Her eyes were fixed on the leader. She stomped her feet on the ground, and her body and longsword formed a straight line, launching her out like a cannonball.

Jiang Yunying had only one goal: to kill this person, regardless of the combined attack launched by the other five.

Even though she was stabbed several times, she was confident she could take two more people with her.
