Chapter 160 Poisoned
Chapter 160 Poisoned
Lü Xinyan had seen Peng Yiyun's actions and was even more satisfied with Peng Yiyun's changes and his dutiful behavior.
One of her goals this time was to make Peng Yiyun even more submissive, and she has now achieved that.
If Peng Yiyun can adjust her mindset, then Lü Xinyan will entrust her with more important matters.
Lu Xinyan has always thought highly of Peng Yiyun, but she needs Peng Yiyun's absolute loyalty before she can entrust him with certain tasks.
After all, those matters are related to a larger situation, and Lü Xinyan needs to be more cautious.
Peng Yiyun is smart enough. As long as Peng Yiyun is submissive enough to her, Lü Xinyan will also give Peng Yiyun some things so that Peng Yiyun can use them when completing tasks.
If Peng Yiyun wants access to more secrets, then he needs to be sufficiently submissive!
This time, she brought Peng Yiyun along, and Peng Yiyun's reaction made Lü Xinyan think even more highly of him. When they returned, she talked to Peng Yiyun more.
Now, Lü Xinyan turned her attention back to Ji Yuzhang ahead and continued walking in that direction.
The venomous snakes around had retreated some distance and were now guarding the area, remaining vigilant about the surroundings.
Using these venomous snakes for guard duty made Lü Xinyan feel even more at ease.
Furthermore, keeping these venomous snakes around would place a greater burden on Peng Yiyun, forcing him to maintain that sense of awe.
Even though she thought highly of Peng Yiyun, there were still some methods she needed to use.
Seeing that the venomous snakes around them were all in place, Peng Yiyun was indeed stunned. Only then did Lü Xinyan continue to look at Ji Yuzhang in front of her.
At this moment, Ji Yuzhang was already shocked to see Lü Xinyan walk out from behind the tree trunk.
He hadn't even noticed that there were people there, two of them!
Even though he had just been attacked by those black-clad guards, he was also keeping an eye on his surroundings, fearing that there might be other ambushes that he wouldn't be able to defend himself against.
He looked very carefully, but still couldn't find the two people hiding there!
This situation was indeed beyond Ji Yuzhang's initial expectations.
Of course, Ji Yuzhang also knew that it was precisely because these two people were so skilled and capable that he couldn't detect them that the black-clad guards were unable to defend themselves when they attacked.
Even so many black-clad guards probably didn't notice where these two were hiding!
The more Ji Yuzhang thought about these things, the more shocked and wary he became.
He saw the two people come out, but he couldn't recognize their identities or strength at all!
The other party looks so young, yet possesses such incredible strength and methods. If they were to really attack him, he might not be able to withstand it.
At this moment, seeing Lü Xinyan and Peng Yiyun walking towards him, Ji Yuzhang tensed up. He didn't know whether they were friend or foe, or what their intentions were, so he could only be as vigilant as possible to prevent any unforeseen events.
The fact that these two were able to take down so many black-clad guards with a single move makes their strength and methods even more unpredictable. Ji Yuzhang needs to be even more careful to avoid being ambushed by them.
Ji Yuzhang didn't see what had just happened. He only knew that the black-clad guards suddenly became so panicked that they quickly fell unconscious and were powerless to resist.
This situation made Ji Yuzhang even more worried.
Lü Xinyan noticed Ji Yuzhang's reaction.
Her appearance was indeed enough to frighten Ji Yuzhang.
However, her methods of dealing with those black-clad guards were indeed intended to resolve those troubles as quickly as possible, so that she could then negotiate with Ji Yuzhang.
The effect was so good that it made Ji Yuzhang more wary of her and increased the weight of her words.
Although she was satisfied with all of this, Lü Xinyan remained indifferent on the surface.
Once she had closed the distance between herself and Ji Yuzhang, Lü Xinyan stopped a short distance away and began to sized up Ji Yuzhang.
Ji Yuzhang also stared intently at Lü Xinyan.
Although he didn't know who this person was or why he had such formidable abilities, now that this person had come, he had to face him eventually. Despite his deteriorating health, Ji Yuzhang remained highly vigilant. If Lü Xinyan were to harm him, he would not surrender without a fight.
However, Ji Yuzhang was still very clear that it was Lü Xinyan who made the move, which prevented him from being surrounded and killed by those black-clad guards and from losing his life.
Knowing all this, Ji Yuzhang did not show any hostility towards Lü Xinyan. Instead, he coughed with difficulty and said softly, "Thank you so much for saving my life, Miss. I will never forget it!"
Ji Yuzhang hadn't forgotten that the black-clad guards had helped him deal with them and escaped mortal danger; he still remembered it and was grateful.
Regardless of the other party's true intentions, gratitude and grievances must be clearly distinguished, and he would not deny the life-saving grace.
As for what will happen next, Ji Yuzhang doesn't know yet; he'll wait and see.
Upon hearing Ji Yuzhang's thanks, Lü Xinyan simply nodded and said with a slight smile, "General Ji, you're too kind! However, since General Ji is injured and poisoned, would you like to purchase some antidote pills and hemostatic and wound-healing medicine?"
"Even if General Ji is in good health, the poisoning issue still needs to be dealt with as soon as possible!"
"I happen to have some antidote pills here that are suitable for the condition. If General Ji needs them, you can purchase them with your own money."
Lü Xinyan didn't beat around the bush with Ji Yuzhang, but directly pointed out Ji Yuzhang's poisoning and injury, saying that it was important to deal with these issues first.
Especially regarding the poisoning, if it is not dealt with promptly, the situation may deteriorate rapidly, and there is no time to lose.
Ji Yuzhang was not short of money, and Lü Xinyan herself had antidote pills, so this deal was still worthwhile.
Of course, Lü Xinyan was also trying to save Ji Yuzhang.
Those black-clad guards were very cunning; they were specifically targeting Ji Yuzhang, using various methods to deal with him, each one potentially fatal!
Although Ji Yuzhang seems to be doing well now, he has indeed been poisoned and needs to be treated.
Wanting to discuss some matters with Ji Yuzhang, Lü Xinyan directly named these issues, getting straight to the point, demonstrating her abilities, and intimidating Ji Yuzhang.
Only if Ji Yuzhang is more wary of her will it be easier for her to handle things that need to be discussed with him.
Ji Yuzhang's identity was also not simple; he carried silver notes and had the money to complete the transaction, so Lü Xinyan didn't need to worry about him.
