Chapter 23
"Speaking nonsense, I see you're looking to die!"
The man in black felt like he had been tricked. He drew his sword and stabbed towards Su Mo.
Su Mo was startled and rolled on the ground.
So irritable, too irritable! Even more irritable than her, Su Mo!
"If you kill me, you won't be able to catch Wu Ying!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a sword flew down from the roof and stuck right in front of the man in black's feet.
Tiles fell down, smashing all over the ground.
"I'm here," Wu Ying's low voice came from the roof.
Seeing this, the man in black immediately went forward, pulled Su Mo up, and put his sword against her neck.
Wu Ying flew down and landed in front of the two men in black.
"Let her go! Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving our sect face!" Wu Ying said coldly.
"Hmph, it seems this woman is quite important to you! I'll let her go. Take this." The man in black took out a pill from his clothes, "Eat it."
Poison? Su Mo couldn't help but want to roll her eyes. Why do they always like such shameless methods?
Wu Ying looked at the pill in the man's hand and said expressionlessly, "What if I don't eat it?"
"Then you can wait to collect your lover's corpse!" The man in black moved his sword a little, and Su Mo frowned, already feeling a small cut on her neck.
Su Mo looked at Wu Ying, and her eyes regained their calmness. "Go, don't worry about me. If they poison me, I'll die even if you save me."
Maybe she would return home if she died. She didn't want anyone else to sacrifice themselves to save her either. She felt like she wouldn't be able to repay such a debt.
"Miss, what we just gave you wasn't poison," the man in black said.
Su Mo was surprised. "What? Not poison? Then what did you give me?"
The two didn't speak again and looked at Wu Ying, "Are you going to eat it or not?"
"Hey, let me tell you the truth. I'm not Wu Ying's lover at all. We've only known each other for two or three days. I was just fooling you earlier. Using me to threaten him is probably a mistake!"
As long as she didn't make up stories, her logic was still clear.
"Girl, you've fooled us again and again. Do you think we'll still believe you?"
Wu Ying's eyebrows twisted as his heart raced abnormally fast. He breathed heavily, looking at Su Mo's flushed lips, unable to stop his throat from moving.
It felt like there was a fire burning inside his body. He didn't even seem to notice the willow leaf dart the man in black threw over.
"Watch out!" Su Mo flipped over and lay on Wu Ying's shoulder. The willow leaf dart pierced into her shoulder.
Wu Ying's eyes flashed coldly. It felt like his heart had been stabbed. "Miss Su!"
A burst of anger welled up and he grabbed his sword, flying over. He forcefully circulated his internal energy and the originally hard sword edge suddenly softened. The man in black didn't have time to dodge before the sword wrapped around his arm. With a flick of his wrist, in just a moment, the man in black's entire arm was severed.
"Ahhhh!" The man in black fell down, rolling on the ground in pain.
The other man in black was shocked and immediately went to check on his brother.
Wu Ying leaned on his body to stand up. Taking advantage of the man in black's lapse in vigilance, he hugged Su Mo and flew onto the roof.
The man in black wanted to chase them but was stopped by his injured brother grabbing his leg. "Brother, save me..."
The man in black hesitated before ultimately not chasing them.
He really hadn't expected Wu Ying to still be so fierce even after being drugged.
...
By now, it was almost dawn.
Su Mo realized they were outside the city now, not inside Lan City.
Wu Ying's scent kept wafting into her nose, making her unconsciously keep rubbing against his chest.
Wu Ying's eyebrows twisted and he leaned her against a big tree.
"Wu Ying...we'll die if we don't do it, right?" Su Mo panted, feeling like her whole body was a furnace.
Wu Ying looked at her, his voice somewhat hoarse. "There's poison on this dart. If I don't suck it out, you'll definitely die."
"Ah? My luck is just too bad..."
Wu Ying paused. "Miss Su, please forgive me."
As he spoke, he pulled down the clothes on Su Mo's shoulder. Before Su Mo could react, his lips were already pressed against her skin.
The sensation of their skin touching made Su Mo involuntarily shiver. "What are you doing?"
Wu Ying didn't speak, sucking out the poisoned blood mouthful by mouthful.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com
