"That fellow's gift is true. He is truly a beauty in the world."
Mu Nanxi was choked by the man's violent force. The strong force made her almost unable to breathe.
Her face turned red, she coughed a few times, and had to raise her hand to break the man's palm.
A playful smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, and his eyes were like a hungry wolf staring at delicious food, full of desire.
He stared at Mu Nanxi and said in a gentle tone: "It's fun to wake up just in time."
Mu Nanxi stared at the man warily, and used both hands to break open the hands that restrained her neck.
The man in front of her was far superior to her in martial arts. Unless he could win by surprise, she would never be his opponent.
The man narrowed his dangerous eyes and slowly leaned close to Mu Nanxi's body.
He gently lifted her hair and took a deep breath, as if tasting the alluring aroma of her hair.
Mu Nanxi pretended to be frightened, her eyes were slightly red, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes, dripping on the jade pillow.
Mu Nanxi trembled, tears slid down her fair cheeks, and she choked and begged: "I...I don't want to die, please let me go."
Her eyes were affectionate and pitiful, like a frightened deer.
The man seemed to be moved by her beauty, his eyes softened, and the strength in his hands suddenly became lighter.
It has never been his style to pity women and cherish them, but today when he looked at the little lady who was crying, he actually felt a trace of compassion. This was not easy for him, who had always been cruel and ruthless.
He said in a deep voice: "I seem to have seen you somewhere before. Your eyes are really familiar to me."
This king?
Mu Nanxi's heart moved slightly. There are only a handful of people who can call me the king.
She was full of speculations and doubts, but she still put on a meek look: "Let me go, and I will agree to whatever you ask me to do."
Mu Nanxi is not stupid. She can clearly see what the person in front of her thinks about her.
"Oh?" The man was happy to see the result and stared at her with interest.
The man relaxed his guard, and Mu Nanxi took the opportunity to suddenly raise his hand, use all his strength, aim at the man's eyes, and poke hard.
The man subconsciously ducked sideways and released his grip on Mu Nanxi.
Mu Nanxi immediately jumped up, holding a silver needle that shone with cold light in her hand.
She threw it at the man without hesitation.
The silver needle flashed a dazzling silver light in mid-air. Before the man had time to react, he was lightly brushed by the silver needle, leaving a shallow blood mark on his neck.
Mu Nanxi had already extracted poison from the silver needles. Although it could not seal the throat with blood, it could make people lose all their strength within a period of time and make their limbs limp and weak.
The man touched his neck lightly, and his fingertips were stained with blood.
A strong killing intent suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"Seeking death!" the man growled, veins popping out on his hands.
But just as he was about to approach Mu Nanxi, he suddenly felt the soles of his feet soften and his body fell to the ground weakly.
The sound of him falling to the ground attracted the attention of the guards outside. Someone came forward and asked in a low voice in front of the door: "Master, do you have any orders?"
Mu Nanxi frowned slightly and shook the bed twice, making the bed creak, accompanied by a few moans.
The guard outside the door heard the sound and thought it was his master who was busy, and immediately bowed and retreated.
Seeing that Mu Nanxi had deceived the guards, she then felt all over her body and took out a small packet of medicinal powder from the sole of her shoe.
The man wanted to shout, but found that his voice was as light as a mosquito.
Mu Nanxi looked at the medicinal powder in his hand with satisfaction, weighed it twice, walked to the table, added a cup of tea, and sprinkled the medicinal powder in.
She wanted to stop after spreading it halfway, but after thinking about it, she still felt it was not enough, so she simply put in all the powder.
Fortunately, she was used to hiding some poison on her body, otherwise she would have been a lamb to be slaughtered today.
Mu Nanxi shook the tea cup and walked up to the man, squatted down and lifted off the man's mask.
The man's exquisite face was revealed in front of her. His eyebrows were picturesque and his nose was straight. He was not inferior even to Qi Zhiheng.
But now is not the time to be a nymphomaniac.
She pinched the man's cheek with one hand and roughly poured the tea into his mouth with the other.
The man struggled not to drink from her hand, and almost half of the tea flowed down the man's slender neck into his chest.
"This is the life-killing powder I developed. Unless you take a special antidote, even a small amount can kill you."
Mu Nanxi didn't know the martial arts level of the guards outside, and she didn't dare to bet that one person could take care of all the people outside.
"Let me and my mother go, and I will give you the antidote." Mu Nanxi could only use him as a bargaining chip in negotiations.
"What if I don't!" The man said through gritted teeth, staring at Mu Nanxi with a pair of cold eyes, wanting to cut the woman in front of him into pieces.
"You'd better decide quickly, otherwise your internal organs will turn into a pool of blood in two hours, and you won't even be able to keep your body intact." Mu Nanxi threatened coldly.
The man was filled with anger and resentment burning in his chest. He was strategizing and calculating, but he didn't expect that he would fall into the hands of a young lady today.
He was too careless. He didn't expect that tonight's prey would be something with thorns!
He closed his eyes and slowly said: "Okay."
The corner of Mu Nanxi's mouth curled up with a hint of satisfaction, and she stepped forward to help the man up and sit on the bed.
"Prepare a fast horse, and you can only take one person back to the inn with me. I will take my luggage and give the antidote to your men."
Before the man could agree, Mu Nanxi walked directly to the door and opened it wide.
The guard standing guard outside heard the sound and looked over. He saw the woman standing in front of the door and became suspicious.
"Your master wants you to come in." Mu Nanxi pointed to the nearest guard.
The guard entered the room with a puzzled look on his face. When he saw the master sitting on the bed with a gloomy expression, his heart trembled and he quickly knelt down.
"Go and prepare fast horses for them, follow her back to the inn, and then bring back the medicine she gave you to me." The man ordered coldly, his voice weak.
The guard was puzzled, but he immediately followed the order and retreated.
Mu Nanxi went out to see Chu Ning in the side room. The guards did not dare to stop him and could only exchange glances with the brothers around him.
The guards looked at the lively woman with doubts in their hearts.
They had never seen a woman come down from her master's bed alive.
When Mu Nanxi entered the wing, Chu Ning was still unconscious.
She didn't have time to wait for anyone to wake up, so she directly picked up the teapot next to her and poured the cold tea on Chu Ning's face.
"Cough...cough..." Chu Ning opened his eyes suddenly and choked, covering his chest and coughing.
"Mom? Are you okay?" Mu Nanxi stepped forward and asked with concern.
Chu Ning felt dizzy, but in order not to worry Xi'er, she still shook her head lightly and said, "It's okay."
But then, her expression became clearer, and when she saw the completely unfamiliar environment around her, she immediately squeezed Mu Nanxi's hand nervously, and asked anxiously in a low voice: "What's going on? Where are we?"
