Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

The woman was panting heavily, her forehead drenched in sweat from running so fast, and she glared angrily at her pursuers.

The skin on my palm was scraped off because of the fall.

"You know things you shouldn't know. If you, Third Princess, are obedient, we will not harm you."

Several masked assassins caught up with them.

Upon hearing this, the woman's expression changed slightly, revealing a look of pain.

"Boss, someone's here."

One of them looked at Ling Yun and the others.

The leader, referred to as the boss, looked at Ling Yun and the others with a fierce expression, clearly intending to deal with them.

The woman realized what they meant and quickly stepped forward to block them.

"Wait, they have nothing to do with this. I'll go back with you."

She didn't want to implicate innocent people.

"Third Princess, you should worry about yourself."

Ling Yun and the others didn't say a word from beginning to end, and their lives were decided by others just like that?

All three of them were stunned for a moment.

This must be what they mean by misfortune falling from the sky?

It seems they've been implicated in a royal family incident.

"I said, don't you need to ask us first before you speak?"

Ling Yun spoke up.

"Everyone, I'm so sorry, I've dragged you all into this."

The woman looked ashamed.

She has been poisoned and it is already a miracle that she was able to escape here. Now she has reached her limit and can no longer use her spiritual power.

"Hmph! You can only blame your own bad luck. Go, kill them, and take the Third Princess back."

The leader's eyes turned cold, and he drew his long sword, pointing it at Ling Yun and the others.

Upon hearing this, the others instantly drew their longswords and attacked Ling Yun and the others.

Ling Yun frowned slightly, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.

Mo Yu and Baili Chengfeng sensed the intense anger emanating from Ling Yun, and the two subconsciously took a step back.

Just kidding, my older sister rarely gets angry, but when she does, someone is bound to suffer.

To avoid getting hurt, it's best to step back.

As for Baili Chengfeng, it was simply that his keen sense of crisis caused his body to react before his mind could process it, instinctively retreating.

Sure enough, no sooner had they retreated than Ling Yun vanished from the spot like a ghost.

She moved so fast that it was impossible for anyone to catch a glimpse of her.

The next moment, before the group could react, Ling Yun appeared silently behind them.

puff!

"How could that be!"

One by one, they suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, their faces filled with disbelief, and then they all collapsed and died.

"Hey! You guys are the ones who are unlucky."

Mo Yu kicked the leader.

He could have lived, but he insisted on provoking Ling Yun.

The woman was stunned by what she saw and remained speechless for a long time.

Mo Yu and Baili Chengfeng walked to the woman's side, but she was still not in a daze.

"What's wrong with her?"

"What else could it be? He was just scared."

Mo Yu shrugged.

"Hey! Snap out of it."

Mo Yu waved his hand in front of the woman's eyes.

The woman then snapped out of her shock, glanced at Mo Yu and Baili Chengfeng, and finally fixed her gaze on Ling Yun.

She had assumed the three men were young masters and ladies from some wealthy family, but she never imagined she had misjudged them.

"right......"

Just as I was about to speak, a strong feeling of dizziness struck me.

Her face, which was already pale, turned even paler. Her body swayed uncontrollably before she fainted.

Fortunately, Baili Chengfeng reacted quickly, which caused her to fall to the ground.

"Is she poisoned?"

Mo Yu glanced at the woman and immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Sis, what do we do now?"

Mo Yu asked Ling Yun for his opinion.

He knew that the woman's life was definitely saved when she disregarded her own safety and didn't want to implicate them.

"This girl has probably only been on the run for a short while. She is exhausted, both physically and mentally, and due to the depletion of her spiritual energy, the toxins in her body have spread throughout her entire body. Let's find an inn in Youyue City for now."

So, Ling Yun and the others led the unconscious woman into Youyue City.

The city was indeed as Mo Yu and the others had described—prosperous and bustling, with crowds of people and a dazzling array of shops.

They found a relatively quiet inn to stay in.

Baili Chengfeng gently placed the woman on the bed, and Lingyun stepped forward to carefully examine her physical condition.

Her brows furrowed slightly.

The woman's body contained far more toxins than she had imagined.

Moreover, this toxin was not ingested in a short period of time, but rather accumulated over a long period of time.

The fact that it hadn't manifested before was probably because someone had deliberately suppressed it with spiritual power.

This time, she probably exhausted a lot of spiritual energy while escaping from that group, which caused the toxins in her body to become uncontrollable and eventually spread rapidly throughout her body.

The toxins are now very potent in her body, and if she doesn't receive timely treatment, her life may be in danger.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Seeing Ling Yun's expression, Mo Yu asked curiously.

Ling Yun withdrew his spiritual power and sat down at the table.

"The poison in her body is not simple. It seems that the person who poisoned her not only wanted to kill her, but also wanted to torture her before she died, so that she would not die too easily."

Ling Yun poured himself a cup of tea, drank it, and then said in a deep voice.

"No, what kind of deep-seated hatred or grudge could lead someone to be so cruel to a young girl?"

Baili Chengfeng was somewhat dissatisfied after hearing this.

"Judging from how those people addressed her, this girl must be a princess from some country."

"Princess? Royal family? Could it be another power struggle? But what's wrong with this royal family? This girl isn't some crown prince or prince."

Ling Yun remained silent.

If it were truly a power struggle for the throne, not only would a princess suffer, but even ordinary people would not have an easy time.

and......

Recall what that group of people said.

This girl probably knows something she shouldn't know.

"Little Blackie, do you have any Blood Lotus Pills in your system?"

[Blood Lotus Pill? Boss, what is that?]

Xiao Heizi was dumbfounded.

How could a system possess elixirs it was unaware of?

"..."

Ling Yun wanted to destroy this stupid system once again.

She vowed that once she found a way, she would destroy this thing without affecting the world.

"Senior, what should we do now? Do you have a way to remove the poison from her body?"

Although Baili Chengfeng had lived for a thousand years, he still felt a pang of sympathy for the woman upon hearing Mo Yu's words.

He's really not good at treatments.

Ling Yun said nothing, but simply stretched out his hand and slowly channeled spiritual energy into the woman's body. As the spiritual energy entered her body, the toxins within her seemed to gain sentience and began to flee from her body.

The woman's face showed obvious pain.

Even so, Ling Yun showed no sign of stopping, and instead increased the input of spiritual energy.

Sweat began to trickle down the woman's forehead, and her originally pale and bloodless face began to flush red.

Mo Yu and Baili Chengfeng remained silent, not disturbing Ling Yun.

About ten minutes later, Ling Yun withdrew his spiritual power.

"Sister, how is she?"
