The person who came was Bai Pingping. After treating the patient, she turned around and found that Xia Mu was missing. She had a premonition that something was wrong, so she immediately went out to look for him. When she reached a small alley, she heard the sound of fighting and rushed over, only to find Xia Mu leaning against the wall, unconscious.

"Little scum, little scum, come out quickly!" Bai Pingping called out anxiously, her voice trembling slightly with tension, her heart already in a state of extreme panic.

Just then, a dazzling light flashed, and Xiao Zha instantly transformed into a sphere radiating a mysterious light, landing steadily in front of Bai Pingping. "Host, I'm here!" Xiao Zha responded cheerfully.

Bai Pingping disregarded everything else and hurriedly asked, "Xiao Zha, please help me think of a way to save Xia Mu! He's in critical condition, and if we wait any longer..." As she spoke, Bai Pingping's eyes reddened, and tears welled up in them.

Seeing this, Xiao Zha quickly comforted him, "Master, don't worry! Have you forgotten the pills we carefully made before leaving the valley? Especially the pills made from the white bird grass in White Bird Valley, those are treasures that can neutralize all kinds of poisons in the world! No matter what kind of poison it is, as long as you take this pill, it will be easily neutralized." After saying that, Xiao Zha jumped up and down excitedly.

Reminded by Xiao Zha, Bai Pingping suddenly realized and excitedly said, "That's right! How could I forget this! I'll find the White Bird Pill in the Qiankun Shrinking Bag right now." Before she finished speaking, she quickly reached out and untied the Qiankun Shrinking Bag from her waist.

Bai Pingping carefully held the Qiankun Shrinking Bag in her palm, then closed her eyes and chanted, "Breath of Qiankun, the object returns to my hand. Release!" In an instant, a soft buzzing sound was heard, and then a beautifully crafted white porcelain bottle slowly flew out of the bag and landed steadily in Bai Pingping's palm.

"Great! We finally found it!" Bai Pingping was overjoyed. She hurriedly opened the porcelain bottle and poured out a crystal-clear, pearl-sized white bird pill. Without daring to delay, she quickly walked to Xia Mu's side, gently pried open his mouth, and carefully placed the precious white bird pill into his mouth.

At first, Xia Mu felt a bitter taste spread on his tongue, followed by a warm sensation in his abdomen. His consciousness was still somewhat hazy, but his heart was filled with resentment and worry. He was unwilling to be tricked by the enemy's scheme, and worried about what would happen to Bai Pingping if something happened to him. At this moment, his face was ashen, his lips were cracked and bluish-purple, and his bloodless face was full of pain. His body was also trembling slightly due to the weakness caused by the poisoning. A cold wind blew in from the alley entrance, carrying a damp smell, making the fallen leaves on the ground rustle, as if they were worried about Xia Mu's fate.

A moment later, fine beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, his teeth clenched, as if he were enduring some intense reaction. Xia Mu felt as if a fierce battle was raging within his body; every muscle ached, every nerve was taut. He silently prayed that the White Bird Pill would work its magic, while simultaneously regretting his carelessness. "How could I have fallen into the enemy's trap so easily? If I fall because of this, Pingping will be heartbroken. I haven't even had a chance to properly protect her..." he thought to himself, a resolute glint in his eyes. Then, his chest began to heave violently, as if a force was surging within him, impacting every meridian. The dark circles under his previously lifeless eyes slowly faded, revealing a faint glimmer of life. A rat darted out from a nearby pile of debris, running quickly past, seemingly startled by the sudden change.

As time passed, Xia Mu's breathing gradually stabilized, his previously rapid and disordered breaths becoming even and strong. He could feel the warm current flowing slowly through his body, dispelling the gloom brought by the toxins. "I must get better, I can't let Pingping down, and there are still unfinished things waiting for me to do..." He kept encouraging himself in his heart, and his lips began to regain some color, the chapped areas seemed to be slowly healing. His trembling hands gradually stopped shaking, his fingers slightly bent, and a trace of blood returned. At this moment, the clouds above seemed to crack open, and a few rays of light struggled down, shining on Xia Mu, as if bringing him hope for life.

After a while, Xia Mu's complexion had regained most of its rosy hue, and his eyes had become clear and bright. His body, which had been weak and slumped against the wall, was now able to slowly sit up. He gently moved his limbs, feeling the strength returning to his body little by little. Although his body was still a bit weak, he was no longer in serious trouble. "Finally, I made it through," he thought with a sigh of relief.

With Bai Pingping's support, Xia Mu slowly steadied himself. He took a deep breath, gradually calming his erratic breathing. Bai Pingping's eyes were filled with worry and anxiety. She gripped Xia Mu's arm tightly, her voice trembling with tears as she asked, "Xia Mu, what happened to you? How could you be poisoned? Who did this to you?"

Xia Mu frowned, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. He really couldn't bear to tell Bai Pingping what Wang Jing had done, fearing she wouldn't be able to handle such a blow. But looking at Bai Pingping's concerned and anxious eyes, he knew he couldn't hide it from her anymore. After a pause, Xia Mu said in a low voice, "Pingping, it was Wang Jing. We had a conflict, and to get away, he..."

Bai Pingping's eyes widened in disbelief, her lips trembling slightly. "How could this be? How could he do such a thing? Does he have some kind of reason?" Despite her shock and disappointment, Bai Pingping still subconsciously tried to find excuses for Wang Jing. She was unwilling to believe that the man with whom she had shared a sweet past could be so cruel and heartless.

Xia Mu sighed softly, grasped Bai Pingping's shoulders with both hands, looked earnestly into her eyes and said, "Pingping, I don't know what his reasons are, but his actions have already explained everything. He left without a word, where does that leave you? You can't keep protecting him like this."

A flicker of pain crossed Bai Pingping's eyes, tears welling up. She slowly lowered her head and said softly, "I just don't understand why things turned out this way. Has he forgotten all those promises he made?"

Xia Mu tenderly embraced Bai Pingping, gently comforting her, "Pingping, don't think about it anymore. Let the past be the past. He doesn't deserve this. From now on, I will always be by your side and will never let anyone hurt you again." Xia Mu's eyes were filled with determination and pity as he gently stroked Bai Pingping's hair, as if comforting a wounded little bird.

Bai Pingping leaned against Xia Mu's chest, tears finally streaming down her face. Her shoulders trembled slightly, her heart filled with mixed emotions. After a long while, she raised her head, looked at Xia Mu, and although her voice was still choked with sobs, it held a firmness in it: "Xia Mu, thank you. I will be alright from now on."

Xia Mu nodded slightly, released Bai Pingping, placed his hands on her shoulders, and said with a gentle yet firm gaze, "Let's go back first, you must be tired. I will look into this matter, so don't worry anymore."

"Little rascal, that Wang Jing has finally appeared! It's like finding a needle in a haystack!" Bai Pingping thought to herself with secret joy.

At this moment, Wang Jing, who hadn't gone far, witnessed the whole thing. He said angrily, "Xia Mu, you dare to ruin my plans! I'll make sure you die a horrible death!"
