Green Street Trail

"Master, Cheng Bai, may I ask, why did we spend so much money to invite the people from Blood Dance Sect to assassinate the powerless young miss of the Yan Clan?"

Just now, he had already seen clearly that Yan Muru did not know martial arts, and her body was indeed not in a good condition. If he were to continue probing, he would only be able to obtain the same result.

However, she was a descendant of the Royal family. Even if she wanted to buy someone to murder, she might not necessarily know where she was.

Not to mention that the price she paid was not cheap. For someone like her who wanted to fight for the throne, even if she lived or didn't die, it wouldn't have much of an impact on her.

As for Qing Jue, who was raised in a deep palace, the unruly princess wouldn't come into contact with any martial arts sects.

Taking all of these into consideration, Yan Muru understood the ins and outs of the matter. Who else could possibly pay such a high price to know where she was and what plans she had made? Who else could it be other than the man who left her behind in the carriage?

At that time, she was not the only one, there were also Qing Shui, Leng Ying, and the Yan family sisters. Even he was on the horse carriage, what would happen if he hurt innocent people?

Hadn't he considered the consequences?

Did he discover something? That was why he secretly manipulated this assassination attempt?

Yan Muru went over what happened in her mind again and confirmed that she did not reveal any flaws. After that, she did not pursue the matter further, which showed that she had 'performed' very well.

However, this kind of test was definitely not empty talk. Could it be that he had some sort of relationship with the Dusk Summer Valley?

Or did he have some bad intentions?

An idea slowly formed in Yan Muru's mind, since there were some people who were interested, she might as well try to arouse their interest.

After all, she felt very uncomfortable when the enemies were lurking in the dark. If they didn't want to come out, then she would just lure them out with one move.

She had called Youlan and Yi Zhu over to discuss her thoughts. Originally, the two of them did not agree to let Yan Muru take the risk herself.

However, it was related to the survival of the entire Dusksummer Valley. Furthermore, Yan Muru had said that she would do her best to protect herself when in danger, so they agreed to cooperate.

In these three days, a girl with an unknown identity, wearing a cloak, became famous in the mouths of the people.

According to the rumors, there was a Divine Doctor Mu at the northern end of the street. He didn't take a single cent from the doctors and even saved a child who had died a few days ago.

With his superb acupuncture skills, he would even offer a bowl of hot porridge when he came across a refugee. The medicinal herbs that he opened were the most ordinary, but the effects were very good.

She had only been here for three days when the people who came to see her arrived from North Street. They wanted to see her, whether she was sick or not.

But this Godly Doctor had a very strange temper. He only saw a hundred patients a day. If there wasn't a ranking, he could only come back the next day.

There were also people who had asked about the residence of Divine Doctor Mu but she had always said that "the four seas are our home and there is nowhere to be found".

Because this Divine Doctor Mu often wore a hat and curtain and a veil, no one knew what she looked like.

Upon hearing this news, Yan Muru, who was in the Mourning Courtyard, was looking at herself in the mirror. Today, she would definitely catch a fox or two.

Godly Doctor Mu left as usual after seeing her, but a black shadow quietly followed behind her. His qinggong was excellent, and she was unable to shake him off even after using the Crescent Moon several times.

As Cheng Bai watched the silhouette flip over the walls of the Prime Minister's Residence, he followed her in despite his hesitation. He saw her turn around and enter the Mu You Yuan.

Isn't this the courtyard of the sixth young mistress of the Yan family?

Then why would Divine Doctor Mu come here?

Yan Muru, Divine Doctor Mu, could there be a connection between the two of them?

Cheng Bai knew that he wouldn't be able to figure it out, so he might as well report it to his mistress.

Cheng Bai turned around to face the woman sitting on the wall.

She wore a bright red dress that sparkled under the moonlight. Her black hair fluttered in the wind. The red sand between her eyebrows matched with the demonic smile on her lips; her beauty was astonishing.

"I say, for a dignified secret guard to want to learn the art of picking flowers and overturn a young miss' wall, he doesn't even know shame."

Her voice was charming and pleasant to listen to. The hand she used to caress her hair looked exceptionally delicate.

Just as Cheng Bai was in a daze, a silver needle shot out from Yan Xiao Mu's sleeve, straight towards his meridian.

Perhaps Cheng Bai had sensed Yan Xiaomeng's killing intent, he dodged the silver needles and hurried back. Yan Xiaomeng still had a confident look on her face, neither alarmed nor disturbed.

"Humph!"

Before long, a groan could be heard. Yan Xiaomu knew that she had succeeded and jumped off the wall.

"When I go back and tell your master that he has to pay a price to touch my men."

Her awkward smile, in Cheng Bai's eyes, was like a blood-sucking ghost, wanting him to escape.

Prince Shuo's Mansion

Cheng Bai gathered all his inner strength along the way, pushing his qinggong to the limit. Based on his many years of experience as a dark guard, that silver needle must have been poisoned.

However, he did not understand. He had obviously dodged it, but how could it still hurt him?

If not for the silver needles stabbing into his arms in a moment of desperation, he probably would not have been able to return today.

However, all the dark guards had the same question. In the past, when Cheng Bai entered the mansion, they didn't notice him, so how could they have seen him so easily today?

The dark guards obviously wouldn't understand. Normally, Chengbai's qinggong and vigilance were in a balanced state. But today, in order to get back as quickly as possible, he had raised his qinggong to its limit, so naturally his vigilance was lower.

"Master!"

Cheng Bai still entered the study through the window, but the weakness and urgency in his words were self-evident.

"This subordinate was following Divine Doctor Mu and discovered that she had entered Sixth Miss Yan's courtyard. Just as she was about to return, she was plotted against. She has a master to blame, so please punish him."

As he listened to Cheng Bai's report and analyzed what was going on, he naturally did not sense that something was amiss with Cheng Bai.

"Did you clearly see Divine Doctor Mu's appearance?"

Yan Muru, right? Could she be Divine Doctor Mu?

For a long time, he did not receive Cheng Bai's reply, as if he was slightly displeased. When he turned around, he saw Cheng Bai lying on the ground.

The veins on his right hand began to congeal, and the blood vessels slowly turned blue, and finally, they condensed into a purple color.

The first thing he did was to bend over and feel Cheng Bai's pulse. If his pulse was normal, then where did all these changes come from?

Unintentionally sweeping his gaze over the tiny needle marks on his arm, he suddenly realized that someone had poisoned Cheng Bai.

However, Cheng Bai's martial arts were excellent, and his Qing Gong was one of the top. It was rare to find someone who could injure him in the Yuwai Continent, so what kind of person did he meet?
