311 Crisis
“You’re so shameless!” After Xu Qing finished speaking, she immediately closed her eyes. However, perhaps because she was really too tired, she fell asleep after a short while.
Qiao Yanhui looked at Xu Qing with heartache and kissed her forehead gently before saying, “Go to sleep.” He took his clothes and put them on quickly. Then, he tiptoed out of the door. The moment before he closed the door, his gaze was still on Xu Qing.
Then, the last day arrived. There was a group of people guarding the entire courtyard. This was because this was the most critical day. If something went wrong, the last trace of poison would probably reach the heart meridians. Even Yi Chuxiang had sent someone to stand guard.
However, just as Xu Qing inserted the silver needle, there was a commotion outside. Someone had charged in. It seemed like they had calculated the time and were brazen enough to launch an attack now.
A fierce look appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes and she reminded him worriedly, “Little Hui, remember not to use your internal energy before I completely detox you. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yes,” Qiao Yanhui replied in a low voice, and killing intent flashed in his eyes. If anyone dared to openly attack him in New Heavenly Kingdom, it could only be Yi Chi. Now, Yi Chulin wasn’t in charge and wasn’t in New Heavenly Kingdom. Qiao Yanhui was being detoxed, so as long as they killed him, they could attack the Ancient Kingdom. Heh, what a brilliant plan.
Qiao Yanhui had been listening to the commotion outside. After a while, he frowned. There was a problem with the number of people who came today! He had already asked Qiao Jun and the others to pay attention to New Heavenly Kingdom’s movements, so he wasn’t afraid of New Heavenly Kingdom at all. However, something was clearly wrong. The people outside didn’t belong to Yi Chi!
“Don’t panic.” Although Qiao Yanhui was only a little flustered, Xu Qing still sensed it. When she saw Qiao Yanhui’s expression, she also realized that something was wrong outside. Then, her hands moved steadily and quickly. However, since she started, no one could disturb her anymore because the process couldn’t be interrupted.
The matter was urgent, so Xu Qing couldn’t care less. She had to buy time.
Qiao Yanhui closed his eyes and endured the pain all over his body. He cooperated fully.
As the sun set, just as Xu Qing was about to succeed, the door was kicked open with a bang and someone attacked.
Without another word, Xu Qing threw out the hidden weapons on her body. The poisonous needles shot out at the same time. Two of the five people who entered fell.
The leader’s expression darkened. “Kill!”
Xu Qing threw out poison again, but unexpectedly, the leader was fine! Xu Qing was shocked and was about to dodge when she was sent flying by the other party. The leader waved his long saber and was about to stab into Xu Qing’s body.
Unexpectedly, powerful internal energy attacked and shattered their hearts. They had never expected to die like this. Before they came, they had swallowed poisonous Gu to guard against Xu Qing’s poison. Because of this, they only had three days left to live, but they were still no match for them… As long as Qiao Yanhui attacked, they wouldn’t be able to counterattack at all.
After Xu Qing finally stabilized herself, she clutched her chest and looked at Qiao Yanhui with pain in her eyes. In the end, someone still attacked! Who was it?!
“Little Qing…” Qiao Yanhui’s voice was hoarse.
Without saying anything, Xu Qing pounced over to hug him.
“Pfft!” His chaotic meridians made him collapse. Now, the poison had already fused into his heart, and no one could save him.

“I’m fine…” Qiao Yanhui held Xu Qing’s hand. He didn’t regret it. It was just that he couldn’t bear to abandon Xu Qing. However, the poison in his body had erupted, and he really couldn’t take it anymore. The light in his eyes slowly dimmed…
“No, you won’t die!” In a panic, Xu Qing picked up the needle bag that had fallen. She wanted to acupuncture Qiao Yanhui, but because her hands were trembling, she couldn’t hold the silver needles steadily at all.
Qiao Yanhui’s voice weakened. “Don’t be afraid… I’m fine…”
“Why are you trembling? Don’t tremble!” Xu Qing cried as she punched her own hand. If she continued to tremble, how could she administer acupuncture to him?
“Don’t…” Qiao Yanhui’s heart ached when he saw Xu Qing like this, but his voice became weaker and weaker, so soft that he could barely hear himself.
Yuan’er, who crawled over, also watched this scene in a daze and couldn’t even say anything.
Xu Qing finally calmed down after stabbing the silver needles into her own meridians to force herself to stop trembling. Then, she stabbed the other silver needles into a few of Qiao Yanhui’s major acupoints.
Finally, after doing all of this, Xu Qing fainted. The silver needles on her body were still bleeding, and the room was filled with the strong smell of blood. Tonight was destined to be an eventful night.
