"Qiweng, stop him!"
The figure in black moved even faster.
In just a moment, Ye Tinglan reached the door. With a surge of internal energy, the figure in black was immediately repelled back into the hall.
Seeing this, Feng Yinwan breathed a sigh of relief. When she turned to deal with the situation again, she saw Qi Xuan had already drawn his sword and charged forward.
Caught between them, the few figures in black were quickly trapped in the hall, surrounded.
They had already been shocked to encounter people from the Xuanmen here, and now seeing Ye Tinglan, the faces hidden beneath their hoods grew even more somber.
Sensing the dire situation, the leader subtly signaled.
In an instant, several poison pills were thrown out simultaneously. Their medicinal properties combined, making them several times more sinister than before.
"Hold your breath!"
As they retreated, the leader, covered by the poison pills and his subordinates, spun around and broke through the window to escape.
Seeing this, Qiweng was about to go in pursuit but was stopped by Ye Tinglan's outstretched hand.
Ye Tinglan cast a cold, stern glance at him, his dark eyes fixed on the spot behind Qiweng.
Qi Xuan understood. He struck the figure in black in front of him, repelling them, and immediately drew his sword to pursue.
The remaining few were merely putting up a futile resistance. Once their poison pills were exhausted, they were like broken wings. Capturing them alive was not a problem.
Kicking someone away, Feng Yinwan went to pursue, but was also stopped.
She glanced at the forearm blocking her path, her brow furrowing tightly.
"What do you mean?"
It was one thing to stand by and watch earlier, but now that the Baimu Lingxi had been stolen, he wasn't even in a hurry?!
Before she could finish speaking, several sharp projectiles attacked from behind.
Feng Yinwan dodged by leaning, and when she looked again, every single one of those people had turned into a pool of blood.
Seeing this, Qiweng's face immediately paled with shock. "Miss, it's Bone Dissolving Powder!"
These villains were so cruel even to themselves!
Feng Yinwan had already been anxious when the leader escaped, and now with this development, her anger surged.
She shoved Ye Tinglan aside and strode forward, only to stop again after a few steps.
Something was wrong.
The Baimu Lingxi was a tribute from the Northern Country to the Empress Dowager's birthday. Even if it wasn't for detoxifying Feng Jinchen, it should have been stored with extreme caution.
If that box truly contained the Baimu Lingxi, how could this person be so leisurely?!
"This is fake too?"
The words were laced with an irrepressible anger.
She looked up and met a calm, unwavering gaze. Feng Yinwan's fists clenched instantly.
It was as she suspected!
No wonder he had hesitated to act earlier. It turned out this was a fake all along!
Standing by and observing was precisely to monitor her and Qiweng's actions!
As if seeing she had finally regained her composure, Ye Tinglan, with his hands behind his back, slightly parted his thin lips.
"Words alone cannot be trusted. Your words, this prince must verify their truth."
Her reaction just now had clearly confirmed it.
Within this Xuanmen, there was indeed another faction, and they were also coveting the Baimu Lingxi.
If Feng Yinwan and the others hadn't mistakenly entered Wolong Valley first, it would have been these people who were caught.
With this thought, Ye Tinglan's gaze darkened. He glanced at the traces on the ground and strode out.
"Return to the manor."
Tonight's objective had been achieved. The rest depended on the situation with Qi Xuan.
Hearing this, Feng Yinwan's icy expression hardened inch by inch.
She had fought with all her might, agonizing over the situation, only to find herself a pawn played with in a test.
Those skilled in manipulation were often cold and unfeeling. It was truly laughable!
"Does Your Highness cherish anything? To be so calculated against, this feeling is never pleasant."
Her gaze was filled with chilling intent.
"I have noted today's events. I hope Your Highness will not regret it in the future."
"Qiweng, let's go!"
