"The antidote is the same as poison? If you take this poison after being poisoned, you will die of anger? Miss Zhao, why didn't you tell me this just now?"
"...I forgot."
"Forgot? Then you are really a noble person who forgets things a lot."
Chen Xuan sneered, obviously looking unkind.
He believed that he had never had any murderous intention towards Zhao Min. Even in the trap just now, he just scratched the soles of her feet and never made any transgression.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Min actually wanted to poison him with this Shixiang Ruanjin Powder.
Even when Chen Xuandang picked up the Yitian Sword, Zhao Min was frightened and took half a step back, saying in shock.
"What do you want to do? If you kill me, you will die too!"
"Don't worry, I won't kill you now."
Green Willow Villa, backyard wing.
"Sir, is it okay if we do this?"
"Leave her alone."
Chen Xuan said lightly, without any emotion on his face.
Zhao Min's threat to him just now did work.
Not only did Chen Xuan not kill her, he didn't even think about teasing her. He turned around and asked Xiao Zhao to lock her into the side room.
Shixiang Ruanjin Powder was indeed a big trouble. He had never encountered this kind of strange poison before, but now that he was suddenly hit by it, he suddenly felt extremely troublesome.
Especially the poison and antidote of Shixiang Ruanjin Powder are exactly the same. If you take the wrong medicine, you will die.
"This is trouble."
Chen Xuan secretly thought to himself, and was about to turn around to find Zhao Min for some psychological work. When he looked up, he found that Xiao Zhao was looking at him infatuatedly. His clear eyes seemed to be revealing a thousand words, and so was his cute little face.
All kinds of tenderness.
This little girl is still young. Although she looks beautiful, she has not yet grown.
When Huang Rong was with her before, she was like a little maid who followed her, but now that she saw her alone, it seemed that this little girl was quite interesting.
Chen Xuan was not a picky eater in the first place, so he joked immediately.
"What's the matter? Are you hungry, little girl? How about I practice with you tonight?"
"..." Xiao Zhao suddenly blushed with embarrassment and remained silent.
When Chen Xuan saw this, he didn't continue to joke with her. He just touched her little face and said casually.
"After all, this is the territory of King Ruyang, so we need to be careful in everything. The three of us will live in the same room tonight, so if there is an accident, we will have someone to take care of us."
"Okay." Xiao Zhao nodded obediently.
Chen Xuan checked the movement around the courtyard and saw that it was getting late, so he led Xiao Zhao into the wing.
Although the Green Willow Villa is located in Ganliang and Shuobei, as Zhao Min's palace, all the decorations here are naturally extremely luxurious.
Tables, chairs, benches, and other furniture are all made of gilded mahogany, decorated with patterns of auspicious clouds and beasts, and decorated with pearls, jade, and glass. They are naturally colorful and very beautiful.
In addition, there are also many kinds of silk damasks.
Chen Xuan led Xiao Zhao in, as if he had entered a bridal chamber with red makeup, and he was very happy.
Zhao Min was originally on guard against the two of them, but when he saw Chen Xuan coming in, he immediately said on alert.
"Chen, what are you doing here?"
Chen Xuan glanced at her without saying a word. He just glanced at the food box on the table and said indifferently.
"You didn't eat these food and drinks?"
"There is Shixiang Ruanjin Powder in the food, why should I eat it?"
The meals in this food box are all the food and wine that were previously served to Chen Xuan in the water pavilion.
Zhao Min saw with her own eyes that he ordered Xiao Zhao to pack it and bring it over. How could she eat it?
Chen Xuan ignored Zhao Min's thoughts and only said:
"Take a few bites to make sure you feel comfortable, otherwise I won't be worried when I test the medicine in two days."
"You want me to help you test the medicine?!"
Chen Xuan glanced at Zhao Min faintly, leaving the scheming Princess Ruyang speechless and could only barely eat two mouthfuls of food.
Her martial arts foundation was weak, and after being hit by the Shixiang Ruanjin Powder, she collapsed on the soft couch and couldn't even move for a while.
Chen Xuan asked Xiao Zhao to take care of her, while he sat cross-legged and tried to detoxify himself.
Although he had made so many preparations, he still felt uneasy.
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, his many calculations are obviously a little over-concerned.
Zhao Min held a banquet and set up a trap at Green Willow Manor. It was clear that he was polite first and then used force. The ultimate goal was to hope that Chen Xuan could be used by her.
In other words, she actually had no murderous intention towards Chen Xuan.
It's just that Chen Xuan has no intention of guessing Zhao Min's thoughts now. He is now poisoned by a strange poison. He can't care about anything else for the moment and can only try to detoxify himself.
The Nine Yang Divine Art has the ability to cleanse the marrow of the I Ching, and it has the inherent effect of healing wounds and reducing poison.
Coupled with the healing chapter of the Nine Yin Manual, even this strange poison from the Western Regions has some potential to be resolved in front of Chen Xuan.
It's a pity that no matter how strong his internal strength is and no matter how exquisite the martial arts he cultivates, he can't compare to the natural creation of heaven and earth.
Shixiang Ruanjin Powder was made from a fusion of a variety of strange poisons from the Western Regions. Even though Chen Xuan used Nine Yang True Qi to forcibly resolve it, the effect was not very satisfactory.
Judging from the current progress, if he wants to use his own internal strength to resolve this strange poison, it will take at least three to five months.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan simply gave up this attempt. Instead of working desperately to activate his internal energy, adjust his breath and eliminate poison, he would rather have a good sleep.
After traveling all this way, Chen Xuan was indeed tired.
Night was gradually falling outside the window, and since he never saw any guards coming, he simply walked towards the soft couch.
Xiao Zhao saw him coming and asked subconsciously.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
"Take a break. Are you coming too?"
"...No need, Xiao Zhao is not tired."
Seeing the little girl's face flushed, Chen Xuan knew that she was thinking wrongly, but he didn't care about it now and just lay down on her.
What a coincidence, I happened to be lying next to Zhao Min.
The princess of Ruyang Prince's Mansion was usually aloof and giving advice to the wealthy lady. How could she be bullied by such a reckless man like Chen Xuan? She immediately frowned and scolded her.
Chen Xuan didn't want to think about it but he closed his eyes and said something leisurely.
"Miss Zhao, there are only three of us here now. I advise you to consider the consequences of irritating me before you speak."
Zhao Min glared at him bitterly. Although she was very angry, she had just eaten the meal with Shixiang Ruanjin Powder, and at this time she was so weak that she couldn't do anything to him.
After being exposed to this Shixiang Ruanjin Powder, most people will feel sore and weak all over, and it will take a few days before they can move freely. However, they will lose all their internal strength and martial arts skills.
Zhao Min is in this situation at this time.
She fully thought that Chen Xuan, dressed as a reckless man, must also be a rough man, and he would do something to her if he didn't go well.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan seemed to be rude, but his speech and behavior were quite polite, and he even had a hint of a gentleman. Even if he was sleeping with her now, he didn't break the rules in the slightest.
Zhao Min secretly glanced at Chen Xuan several times, recalling the previous situation in the water pavilion trap, and couldn't help but feel a little fond of him.
In fact, if Chen Xuan joked with her carelessly, the Ruyang Princess would secretly be disgusted.
Because although Zhao Min was a princess of the Yuan Dynasty and was considered half a prairie woman, deep down she yearned for the culture of the Central Plains, especially the Confucianism among celebrities in the south of the Yangtze River.
If not, she would not have worked so hard to build the Green Willow Villa in this sweet and cold land, let alone write inscriptions, calligraphy and paintings, play the piano and play the sword in the villa.
The more behaved Chen Xuan was, the more Zhao Min felt he was a gentleman, and the more he liked him.
I just don't think Chen Xuan is a gentleman. He is purely fighting against the masters of the six sects and the Yuan soldiers at the foot of the mountain. In addition, he has been chasing non-stop all the way to this point, and he is already exhausted.
On normal days, when nothing happened, I would spend the whole night with her.
A night of silence.
The next morning.
Chen Xuan slowly opened his eyes. He obviously said he was taking a nap, but he didn't expect that the whole night would pass as soon as he closed his eyes.
Before he could get up, he suddenly found a girl in his arms.
"Miss Zhao?"
"Um?"
Zhao Min agreed in a daze, but suddenly woke up when he raised his head.
"What are you doing?!"
"That's what I should ask you."
Chen Xuan's light words made Zhao Min stunned.
Last night, the three of them made do together for the night, but in the middle of the night, the night breeze became even colder.
Zhao Min had already taken Shixiang Ruanjin Powder, and due to physical weakness, his hands and feet felt even colder. It happened that Chen Xuan had practiced the Nine-Yang Divine Art, and he had a masculine energy all over his body.
Green Willow Manor was originally her palace, and she didn't come here often, so the guest room didn't have any quilts or anything like that.
In the second half of the night, she was really too cold, so she could only move closer to Chen Xuan. Unexpectedly, she finally got into his arms in a daze.
Now that I think about it, Zhao Min is naturally ashamed.
She was too embarrassed to say anything openly, so she had to pretend to be silent.
Chen Xuan originally wanted to get up and check on the situation of the manor, but he didn't expect that the remaining strength of Shixiang Ruanjinsan seemed to be coming back. He didn't feel much last night, but now he feels that his hands and feet are sore after sleeping all night.
He didn't want to get up now, so he just said lazily.
"You can stay if you want to."
"..."
Zhao Min didn't dare to say anything. She glanced at him secretly and found that he had closed his eyes again, as if he was still asleep.
He fell asleep again so quietly.
Zhao Min was already weaker than him, and he was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night last night, so he was a little confused now. After some hesitation, he pretended not to hear, and was about to close his eyes and squint for a while.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Xiao Zhao ran in and said anxiously.
"Sir! Wake up! Someone is coming from outside!"
Chen Xuan woke up immediately after hearing this. He didn't care about Zhao Min for a moment, pushed her away, turned over and got up, frowning.
"Are they officers and soldiers or martial arts masters?"
"They are officers and soldiers. They have returned with many people in custody. They are still in the front yard and have not come in yet."
"forecourt?"
Chen Xuan frowned and looked back at Zhao Min.
Zhao Min said she was threatened by him, but at this moment, she seemed to suddenly feel confident and said proudly.
"Ada must be back, Mr. Chen. If you don't want to die, just stay with me."
Chen Xuan frowned. Although Zhao Min's words were very offensive, the masters of Ruyang Prince's Palace were back now. If Zhao Min didn't show up for a long time, I'm afraid it would arouse their suspicion.
When the time comes, it will cause trouble if things get bigger.
The most ideal way is to follow Zhao Min out, watch her get the antidote back, and then take the antidote and leave.
It's just that when Chen Xuan killed everyone in Guangmingding, he was bound to fall into the eyes of many people. If he followed Zhao Min out now, his identity would be revealed.
Just as he was struggling secretly, Xiao Zhao took a step forward and said.
"Sir, Xiao Zhao is willing to take a chance!"
This little girl was really smart, and she guessed that Chen Xuan was in trouble for Zhao Min.
She found a dagger from somewhere, deliberately waved it twice, and looked at Zhao Mindao.
"Princess Zhao Min, if you honestly let me and the young master get the antidote and leave, Xiao Zhao will not embarrass you, but if you dare to play any tricks, then Xiao Zhao will take you to death with him."
"snort!"
Zhao Min snorted when he heard this, turned to look at Chen Xuan, and sneered.
"Chen, you have a good dog."
"What did you say!" Xiao Zhao suddenly became furious.
Chen Xuan stopped her and glanced at Zhao Min faintly.
"Miss Zhao, instead of engaging in these meaningless verbal disputes now, it would be better to get the antidote back and let everyone get together and relax."
He had already said this, so Zhao Min naturally couldn't say anything more, so he could only get up and follow Xiao Zhao to the front yard.
The six sects' siege on Guangmingding was originally a series of events.
According to the original plan, when the six sects and the Mingjiao were both defeated, Zhao Min would lead the masters of the Ruyang Palace to kill them all.
It's just that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. No one expected that the Ming Cult would produce such a master as Chen Xuan and directly disrupt the offensive of the six sects.
Therefore, Zhao Min could only change his plan and ambushed the masters of the six sects who came down the mountain along the way, and now he has gained quite a lot.
Chen Xuan doesn't care about this. What he cares about now is how long it will take to get the antidote for Shixiang Ruanjin Powder.
Not long after Xiao Zhao and Zhao Min walked out of the room, they heard the sound of footsteps.
Chen Xuan felt nervous and hurriedly walked to the door with Yitian Sword in hand.
Unexpectedly, when the door opened, it was Zhao Min who walked in first.
Looking behind her again, she clearly saw Xiao Zhao leading a beautiful woman in.
The beautiful woman was dressed in gray Taoist robes and had elegant and gentle features. Chen Xuan recognized her with just one glance.
"Zhou Zhiruo?"
Xiao Zhao explained.
"Sir, the people who came back this time are all officers and soldiers. The antidote we want needs to wait for a few more days. The officers and soldiers of the palace captured many disciples of the Emei sect. I found Miss Zhou among them and took her with me.
Come back."
Xiao Zhao had met Zhou Zhiruo once before, and the two had a very happy chat on the carriage.
She fully thought that Chen Xuan would praise her if she brought Zhou Zhiruo over now.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Chen Xuan and Zhou Zhiruo met each other, Zhou Zhiruo suddenly stepped forward, snatched the Yitian Sword from Chen Xuan's hand, and tried to wipe Chen Xuan's neck with the sword!
"Miss Zhou!" Xiao Zhao was very anxious when he saw this.
Zhao Min on the side also raised his eyebrows secretly, waiting to see this big show.
Only Chen Xuan didn't panic at all, he just said indifferently.
"If you have the ability, just do it."
"..."
This time, Zhou Zhiruo was frightened. She looked at Chen Xuan with tears in her eyes and said in a trembling voice.
"Why did you hurt my master! Why did you take away the Yitian Sword!"
"Why did you say?"
Chen Xuan sneered and slapped the Yitian Sword out of her hand.
