The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

Just then, Yi Lingyun landed with Fang Qingyou: "Qingyou, it should be safe here now."

Before her was a lush green expanse. Fang Qingyou looked around and realized that this was the grove of trees near the home of Jiu Xishi.

The men in black were no longer visible, but the sounds of clashing swords and spears could still be heard.

"Ruanmengyun, are we just leaving like this? Will Green Field be in trouble?" Fang Qingyou was still worried. She herself was out of danger, but she didn't know what Green Field's situation was.

"Probably not." Yi Lingyun glanced at the direction behind her. Although those men in black were skilled, they were still far inferior to Lü Ye.

Fang Qingyou was about to say that was alright, but her expression suddenly changed.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—" Just then, a group of men in black appeared out of nowhere, carrying swords and knives, and quickly approached her and Yi Lingyun.

Yi Lingyun reacted faster than Fang Qingyou, and after giving her a word of advice, she immediately flew over to meet her: "Qingyou, find a safe place to hide. I'll come find you after I've dealt with them."

"Ruanmengyun, you must take care!" Fang Qingyou knew very well that she had to leave. Staying would only be a burden to Yi Lingyun, so leaving was the best solution.

"Clang—clang—" The sounds of fierce swords clashing came from behind. Fang Qingyou was worried about Yi Lingyun and Lüye, and felt extremely sad.

These men in black are clearly highly skilled martial artists. A few of them would have been enough to deal with her, but they sent so many. Are they trying to make her disappear without a trace?

This grove of trees is such a tranquil and pleasant place; people use it for romantic dates, but she's using it to escape her pursuers...

Before long, Fang Qingyou's face suddenly turned pale, and she stopped in her tracks.

Because she suddenly realized that she was being chased by men in black here, could there also be men in black chasing after Ren and Fang Runting?

Green Field and Yi Lingyun are both here, and Elder Xing is the only one at home. Can he protect them all?

Thinking of all this, Fang Qingyou couldn't stay calm. She had to go back. If the Ren family and Fang Runting were also being hunted down, she could at least lend a hand.

She kept quite a lot of poison at home.

Thinking this, Fang Qingyou looked around and saw that Yi Lingyun and the group of men in black were still fighting not far away, so she quietly walked out from the other side.

Fang Qingyou was somewhat relieved that these men in black hadn't chased her over. What she didn't know was that a group of men in black had actually come over, but before they could act, they were all killed by a black-robed man who suddenly appeared.

Fang Qingyou ran out of the grove, intending to run all the way home, but when she was almost at the door of Jiu Xishi's house, she felt a cold wind whistling past her back.

When she turned around, she saw two men in black already brandishing their knives at her.

Fang Qingyou's expression changed, and she gripped the silver needles tightly, preparing to rush forward to fight the enemy. Getting injured was better than losing her life.

"Thump--" Just then, Fang Qingyou saw the two men in black fall forward in unison, landing heavily on the ground in a face-first manner, raising a cloud of dust.

The two were clearly hurt from the fall, groaning and unable to get up for a long time.

Upon seeing this, Fang Qingyou's expression brightened, and she quickly took the opportunity to run away.

Heaven was on her side; unexpectedly, the two men in black suddenly fell down.

Fang Qingyou ran past the entrance of the Wine Beauty shop, unaware of the bright red hem of a garment hidden behind the door.

In the grove, the man in black robes held a black bottle and poured the black powder inside onto a pile of black-clad corpses in front of him.

"Hiss--" The black-clad corpses immediately emitted a puff of white smoke and disappeared in a moment, as if they had never existed.

After doing all this, the man in black turned and left indifferently.

On Yi Lingyun's side, the group of men in black were no match for him, but he only managed to knock them unconscious, leaving one of them conscious.

"Who are you people, and why did you want to kill Xiaoyou?" Yi Lingyun ripped off the mask of the man in black, pointed her sword at him, and asked coldly.

The man in black's lips twitched, and Yi Lingyun thought he was about to speak. However, his expression quickly changed, because he saw a trail of black blood flowing from the man's mouth before he closed his eyes.

“You…” Yi Lingyun checked the pulse in the black-clad man’s neck and found that he was already dead.

"Young Master." Just then, Green Field rushed over. Seeing the dead man in black, he frowned and said, "Young Master, these people would rather die than reveal who's behind them. Could it be that they are..."

Yi Lingyun nodded, her expression somewhat solemn: "Yes, they must be someone's assassins."

"Who on earth wants to kill Miss Fang and has mobilized so many assassins?" Green Field looked puzzled. Using such a large force to deal with Fang Qingyou was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

If Fang Qingyou could hear Green Field's inner thoughts, she would definitely be so angry that she would curse.

"Green Field, can't you find a nicer word?! You're the one who's... you know... your whole family is... you know...!"

Yi Lingyun remained silent, unable to immediately recall who had ordered Fang Qingyou to be so ruthless.

Green Field looked at the men in black lying unconscious on the ground and asked, "Young Master, what should we do with these people?"

"Send them to the authorities." There was no point in keeping these assassins alive, as they wouldn't yield any information. Yi Lingyun didn't want Fang Qingyou to be involved in their deaths; let the imperial court handle this.

“Okay.” Green Field said, then squatted down and pulled out the belts of the men in black, binding them tightly one by one.

Yi Lingyun kept glancing at the grove behind her, her eyes filled with undisguised worry: "Lvye, you deal with these people, I'll go find Xiaoyou first."

"Young Master, where is Miss Fang?" Green Field then remembered Fang Qingyou.

"I told her to hide in the woods."

"Oh, then you should go back after you find Miss Fang. I'll come back after I've dealt with these people."

Yi Lingyun nodded and quickly walked into the woods.

Unable to find Fang Qingyou along the way, Yi Lingyun became very anxious until she saw the mark she had left behind.

Only then did Yi Lingyun feel relieved, realizing that Fang Qingyou had already gone home.

Therefore, Yi Lingyun immediately followed Fang Qingyou's mark and left.

However, before leaving, Yi Lingyun couldn't help but glance in a direction behind him. There was clearly nothing there, but he could still sense a hint of danger.

Because she was worried about Fang Qingyou, Yi Lingyun left without going to investigate.

In fact, that direction was exactly the direction the man in black robes had left in.
