Ning Yue leaned close to his ear and whispered, “I won’t tell you! Hahaha!” With that, Ning Yue jogged away, leaving Jiang Ying standing there in a daze.

Soon, he reacted and caught up to Ning Yue. “Alright, you naughty girl!”

“You won’t be able to catch up to me!” Ning Yue increased her speed again, not wanting to trip over something under her feet this time.

Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, Jiang Ying quickly hugged Ning Yue to prevent her from falling.

Ning Yue patted her chest in fear. “Thank you.”

If not for Jiang Ying, she would have been injured today. What was it? She turned around and actually saw someone!

“Oh my god!” She quickly stepped forward and pushed through the bushes, revealing a person. Ning Yue quickly checked.

Fortunately, this person was only unconscious. There were no obvious external injuries on his body. His pulse revealed that he was poison.

“He’s still alive.” Ning Yue heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked Jiang Ying to help him up. She took a bamboo tube from her backpack and filled it with ancient water.

She couldn’t care less who this person was. She had to save him first.

Together, they managed to feed him the water.

After a while, the man woke up. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood. The poison seemed to have been mostly expelled.

He said something to Ning Yue and Jiang Ying that they did not understand.

Ning Yue frowned. “You’re not from the Great Yun Nation?”

The man was stunned for a moment before he said, “Thank you.”

When Jiang Ying heard this, he replied, “You’re welcome. Why are you in the mountains? Do you want me to get someone to send you back?”

“Thank you. Please send me to Laifu Village. To thank you for saving me, as long as it doesn’t go against my conscience, I can help you do something for free.”

Ning Yue was very curious about this person’s identity. Whether it was his clothes or his words, this person did not look like he was from the Great Yun Nation.

“Who are you?” Ning Yue asked.

The man’s face darkened. “I’m from Russia.”

Russia? Ning Yue frowned even more. Why were people from Russia here?

“I came with my master. My gang leader came to the mountains to find a medicinal herb. I didn’t expect to lose my footing and fall.”

When she heard this, she knew that he was not telling the truth. Ning Yue glanced at Jiang Ying, who understood.

The people of Russia should be on their way to the capital at this time. Why would they appear in Laifu Village, a town near the border?

No, he had to investigate.

At the thought of this, Jiang Ying knocked him out and summoned the secret guards. He would take him away first.

At the same time, in the inn in Laifu Village, Yuan Hui was angry at Baili.

“It wasn’t easy to find Laifu Village, but we lost the clues. You’re really useless!” Yuan Hui was very angry.

He did not understand. He had already narrowed it to Laifu Village. Why could he not find any clues?

“Emperor, this is the Great Yun Nation after all. We can’t extend our reach that far. We’ve already investigated Laifu Village. It’s only a matter of time before we find the person you’re looking for.”

“Xiuluo suddenly lost contact. I am worried something has happened to him,” Baili said guiltily.

Back then, the late emperor had asked his uncle to investigate. As soon as he investigated the Great Yun Nation, his uncle disappeared. He felt that they really did not get along with the Great Yun Nation.

Hearing Baili’s words, Yuan Hui calmed down a little. “Send more people to Laifu Village to see if there are people who are dressed differently.”

He didn’t believe that they wouldn’t be able to find him if they continued to check every door.

“Emperor, if we investigate with great fanfare, will it arouse the suspicion of the Emperor of Great Yun?” Baili asked.

“I don’t care if he’ll suspect something! I think there’s no one I can’t investigate!” Yuan Hui said coldly.

So what if the Emperor of Great Yun suspected it? Would he dare to stop it? If he dared to suspect it, he would dare to send the army to flatten Great Yun!

Baili swallowed. It had been a long time since he had seen the emperor so angry.

Ever since the emperor woke up from the poison, he seemed to have become a different person. He was not as impatient as before. He thought that the emperor had changed after being poisoned and had changed his personality. Unexpectedly, he had only restrained himself a little and was back to being bloodthirsty.

The reason he was called the Bloodthirsty King was that he would never be soft-hearted towards enemies and traitors. Once he finds that there is no blood on his sword, he will never return it to its sheath.
