"Wa — —" Quicksand bit his lower lip, unable to bear the dizziness and the sharp pain in his stomach. He spat out a mouthful of black blood, shook it a bit, and fell off the horse.
"Quicksand!" Dazzling Spring subconsciously reached out and pulled him. He only stopped the falling sand for a moment before falling down with him, falling to the ground.
Looking at the dark green wound on Quicksand's shoulder and the black blood at the corner of his mouth, Drifting Water knew that his heart meridian had been infected. If he couldn't be treated quickly, he would definitely die.
"Protect the heart meridian, don't resist my inner force." Dang Hen helped him sit up and sat behind him. He channeled his energy into his palms and placed them behind his back. His Qi flowed through his meridians and eight meridians.
Flowing Sand felt the pain in his chest lessen as he quickly used his Qi to protect his heart. 60% of his Qi was protecting his heart, while the rest of his Qi was circulating slowly to force the poison along the direction of the shallow mark's Qi.
"Who?" The left palm was still pressing down on his back, but the right hand was still pressing down on his waist, showing caution. Both of them were currently on the verge of death. If they were enemies, then their lives would be forfeit.
The person spying on them from a distance was seen through, he did not have the intention of hiding and walked out, "Did you run into the people from Candle Stick Hall?"
He bowed his head in respect, "Hall Master Yun." After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Can Hall Master Yun dispel the poison of Quicksand?"
Yun Kai shook his head, "I have the antidote for this, but I can't find any ingredients for a while." He left the Puppet Palace in a hurry, and didn't have any good pills by his side. On the other hand, I mixed some medicinal herbs in the valley, which should be able to sustain me for a while. " From his pocket, he took out a medicine bottle and passed it to Qian Jin. "There are still five pills inside. Take three of them and feed them to him. The rest can be eaten later, depending on the situation."
He took three pills and fed them to the quicksand, then circulated his inner force to help him absorb the medicine.
Seeing his pale face, Yun Kai sighed softly, "Fine, get up. I will force the poison out of him, you'd better focus on treating your injuries first."
After a moment of hesitation, he stood up and said, "I'll be troubling Hall Master Yun on that side."
Yun Kai sat cross-legged, "You're welcome, hurry and adjust your breathing." He stretched out his palm and the Qi Source entered his palm.
Dazzling Spring led the horse to the side and tied it up, then sat down and adjusted his breathing.
A white light appeared on Yun Kai's fingertips, after a short moment, he struck a flat palm, sand opened his mouth and spat out a few mouthfuls of black blood, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. Before he could even catch his breath, Yun Kai had already sealed several of his acupoints, placing his right hand on top of his head, continuing to apply inner force.
Grass poison attacked the heart, insect poison attacked the brain, protecting the heart meridian before expelling the ascending poison. Only then would it be considered complete.
Yun Kai's gaze was solemn, threads of white Qi continued to emerge from his palm, a black Qi appeared between his brows, in an instant his left hand's two fingers were connected, lightly pressing against his forehead, then the right palm's force was absorbed, his internal energy followed the Hundred Clans Acupuncture Point and pierced in.
Quicksand's body trembled intensely, and then he slowly relaxed. A few strands of blood seeped out of his mouth and nose, and his expression relaxed somewhat.
Releasing his hand, Yun Kai took two steps back and asked, "How do you feel?"
Flowing Sand sensed the situation for a moment before nodding his head lightly, "I feel much better now. Many thanks to Hall Master Yun."
Yun Kai laughed, "No need, the remaining poison is not clear, I am also powerless."
Flowing Sand shook his head. "Without Hall Master Yun, I would have already lost my life. In the future, I might even have a chance to live."
Yun Kai asked, "Is Gong Sou not by your side? If it's him, he should have a way to clear your poison. "
"Eldest senior brother …" Quicksand pursed his lips slightly, "The West Hallmaster and Heaven's Mandate, who is standing behind us to protect us, I don't know …" Stop talking.
Yun Kai had not asked them why they were heavily injured, but upon hearing this his expression couldn't help but to change a little, "A sick man helped Liu He and the Heaven's Mandate to be crippled? Are the three of them injured? "
Hearing the meaning in his words, Flowing Sand's gaze darkened even more. "Second senior brother has been running the entire way and fighting against three by himself. He hasn't been able to hurt them much, and I haven't been able to help him."
Yun Kai turned his head to look at the wide opened eyes, "Do you need my help?"
Xie Hen silently nodded his head, "If possible, I hope that I can trouble Hall Master Yun to help … The next day shall be filled with light scars. "
Yun Kai unconcernedly shrugged his shoulders, "No need, it's just a small matter. Candle Stick and I have our private grudges, it's fine. Let me borrow the horse, you two be careful. " He threw a bottle of medicine at Drifting Water: "Go and clean your wounds. I'll be back as soon as possible."

"West City Lord, where are they?" The yellow-clothed man turned around and looked at the sick wind that was supporting the willow tree on the stone wall. He looked around and asked.
Sick Wind helped Liu Ming see him, and he was slightly startled. "How come you didn't die?"
The hall master was astonished. "Why should I die?"
Sick Wind helped Liu Ming realize that his words were wrong, but the shock in his heart was unable to calm down. After a long while, he said, "'drunkard with wine' says that you were killed by him."
"Drunk?" He didn't know whether to be angry or to laugh, "You're going to believe him just because he said so?"
Sick Wind also frowned, "He has your concealed weapon in his hand, and it came while riding your horse. Shouldn't I believe it?"
Hall Master Bei was slightly startled, unable to react for a moment. "My throwing daggers?"
Sick Wind pointed at his face and sneered, "This was cut by your precious throwing knife."
Thinking back to the battle between the two, he suddenly said, "I threw a few flying daggers at him during the battle. After that, I went to look for the one I had lost."
Sickly Wind laughed at Liu Qing's words, "The dignified master of the Beitang Clan, was actually proud of his secret weapon being taken away by a junior. More importantly, he was even able to let him retreat safely … It makes people laugh out loud. "
Pavilion Master Bei said, "Let's not talk about this. How's it going on your side?"
Sick Wind helped Liu Chang shrug. "Thanks to you, both of them were rescued by the 'drunkard'."
Hall Master Bei was taken aback, "He was saved? How are their injuries? "
Sick Wind supported Liu Leng and said: "Those two were hit by my hidden weapons, so they might be able to expel the poison with their deep ability. The other one was supposed to die under my poison darts."
The hall master heard the other party's implied meaning. "What was he supposed to do?"
Sick Wind helped Liu said, "Speaking of poison skills, I'm far from you. You should know a bit more about the methods used to poison people than me. I'm afraid that with him around, it's hard to say whether or not he will be able to cure me of my poison. "
The North Court Lord murmured, "That kid was way too slippery. He fell into his trap just by being careless. He really miscalculated."
"I don't mind that." Sick Wind helped Liu was not a person who was used to hiding. He explained what happened just now simply, then curled his lips, "You played a good hand to sow discord between people, slashed my face with your blade, and rode your horse to save his Junior Brother. I really thought you fell into his hands."
The North Hall Master laughed heartily, "I didn't die. I lost my life, lost my dignity, and am still alive? "Two people in their forties were toyed around with by a young man in their twenties, it would be embarrassing if word of this were to spread."
Sickly Wind helped Liu Xin let out a cold snort, but he did not object, "That kid is in his twenties, bringing up two grown men is not a waste of effort, in the blink of an eye he saved two people from my hands, he's not afraid of hurting his junior brother. With such skill and courage, it might not be a bad thing if we do not fight head on. "
The hall master was a bit surprised, "He fought with me for a long time, then sprinted all the way here. He sure has a lot of strength."
Sick Wind pouted, "Speaking of which, why are you so slow?" It's been a quarter of an hour since the drunk left. "
The Head of the Northern Pavilion glanced at the wound on his face, and with a smile that seemed to gloat at his misfortune, he said, "I got drunk on a handful of poison powder. I spent some time to force the poison out sixty to seventy percent, and then I took a horse and rushed over."
The sick wind helped Liu saw him staring at his face and laughed, how could he not know what he was laughing about? Without any hesitation, he ridiculed them back, "Using poison to poison yourself, you've lost much more than I have."
The hall master laughed heartily. "How could I dare to accept your offer?"
The two of them were not happy that they had been made a fool of by Gongzi He. They mocked each other for a bit, but the anger in their hearts had also calmed down a bit. Sick Wind helped Liu retract his smile and said slowly, "This Gong fellow is much harder to deal with than I thought. If we tell him to run this time, it's hard to say if he'll be able to seize the opportunity in the future. "
Hearing that, hall master's expression changed, "We have not exchanged many blows with each other, but judging from his movement and whip techniques, he is definitely not an ordinary individual. From what I can see, his qinggong may not have been fully utilized, but I already felt that it was strenuous for me to follow him, not to mention that he relied on his legs to run all the way, so he probably consumed a lot of stamina. Also, he used poison and whip techniques. Considering his age, it is not an exaggeration for him to say that there are few people in the martial arts world who are able to do so. "
Sick Wind helped Liu Ming narrow his eyes, and seemed to be recalling the scene from before, "Speaking of Qing Gong, he passed through the pair of cripples to come over from the rock wall, the location of the throwing knives should be very close to me, the throwing knives just arrived at him. When I first heard him approach, he was only a dozen feet away. In an instant, he was already there, even saving the quicksand. This speed is really shocking. "
Hall Master Bei continued, "Most of the Hall of Poison assassins specialize in speed. The few Hall of Blood assassins we ran into earlier could easily be killed in terms of martial arts, but it was all because of their qinggong that they got the chance to escape. In terms of martial arts, he is definitely not my match. Even with his Qing Gong, the gap won't be too big. My greatest fear is his terrible use of his surroundings and of the thoughts of his enemies. "
"Hmm?" The sickly wind lifted Liu Mei's eyebrows, "I've seen the latter, what does environmental control mean?"
The Head of the Northern Hall told him about what happened in the Ten Thousand Bell Temple. Looking at his thoughtful expression, he faintly sighed, "Not only does he know this place, even when I chase after him through the branches, I can tell that he has a strong adaptability toward it. I rode after him, and he ran to where the branches were thick and drooping, and at first I didn't think it was right to go farther back, so I abandoned the horse to follow him on foot. Of all the killers I've seen, he's the only one who even uses a sparse branch. "
Sick Wind supported Liu Ming in silence for a moment, then suddenly said, "It looks like the method we used to separate the two of them was wrong."
"What do you mean?"
Sickly Wind helped Liu De: "Even though the strength of the 'soul-reaping' husband without the 'drunken' one with the other 'has dropped tremendously, the' drunken 'one without the' swindler 'has not been affected in the slightest. On the contrary, it's getting harder to deal with because of the lack of scruples. Although the two of them together are difficult to deal with and can at least restrain each other, there is only one person surnamed Gong who can escape no matter what. "
North Hall Master looked up at the sky, "Southern Hall Master has not come out of seclusion yet, but the three of us have suffered a great loss this time. I don't know how I'll explain this to the hall master when I get back. "
Sick Wind supported Liu Chang silently. "I almost thought that I would only be able to go back on my own."
The pavilion master chuckled, "Ha, thank you for your concern."
Sick Wind supported Liu Xiang and glanced at him sideways: "Do I care about you? I just feel a little lonely on the way back. "
He rubbed his swollen head and reminded, "You mustn't tell such a shameful thing to anyone else. It would be troublesome if the hall master were to hear it."
Sick Wind helped Liu Xin roll her eyes, "You don't need to say that I already know that I lost a lot more people than you."
"How can I die so easily? As long as you don't give me a sword behind me, I won't give up." He patted the thin horse he had snatched and jumped onto it.
Sick Wind supported Liu Ming as he laughed and mounted the horse. "This is hard to say. Who knows, I might have to give you a sword strike one day when I'm in a bad mood."
The hall master yawned as he walked forward, "Then I wish you all the best in your heart."
Sick Wind helped Liu Ming notice him heading in the opposite direction that Gong Tianqiao had left from. He snorted, "You were just a few steps away from that brat and ran away. Right now, I'm already very annoyed."
The North Pavilion Master turned around and asked, "Are you going to chase him?"
Sick Wind helped Liu Bai roll his eyes, "No!" He galloped past him.
The Head of the Northern Palace shrugged his shoulders and smiled. He also shook his reins as he chased after them. "You should still be a bit slower. My horse is no match for your precious mount."
The diseased wind helped the willow increase his speed instead of slowing down. His voice came from afar, "You lost your horse, why blame others for being too fast?"
The North Lord turned to look at the empty boardwalk. He broke into a smile and muttered to himself, "Tang Xiao, this time I'll let him go. If there's a next time …" Life and death shall be decided by the heavens. "

"Gongzi, are you alright?" Yun Kai frowned as he looked at the blood on Gong Mi's hands. His eyebrows furrowed slightly, he started to measure the injuries on Gong Mi's body.
Gongzi tweaked the clothes in his hands and stood up, bowing slightly: "Hall Master Yun, have you seen my junior brother yet?"
Yun Kai nodded as he watched him wrap the wet clothes around the horse's leg, frowning slightly, "You're not injured?"
Gongzi spread out his hand and showed him a wound on his palm. "A cut, but it's not tight."
Yun Kai resisted the urge to scold him, and reminded him, "Your injuries are not light, why are you still healing Ma?"
Isn't Hall Master Yun here now? I don't think there will be any problem with the two of them. " Gong Ni tilted his head to look at his bandaged leg and nodded in satisfaction, "Is Hall Master Yun going with me to find Junior Brother Yun?"
Yun Kai still remembered the words of Quicksand in his heart, yet he still did not feel reassured, "Is the disease helping the Willow Man?"
Gong Tianni looked back at the way they came from and said casually: "You haven't caught up to me for so long, you probably don't intend to kill me right? Then there's no need to worry, they've already left. "
Yun Kai could vaguely guess what he was thinking, "Are you waiting for them here?"
Gongzi pointed around. "The terrain here is vast, but there are also some thick and sturdy trees for me to roam through. This is a place I'm extremely familiar with. There was a town not far ahead, and if they ran over there, they would have some scruples. Even if we do not have complete confidence in winning, delaying the matter for a while before attempting to escape is not too difficult. "
Yun Kai was speechless, "You're really …."
Although Gong Tianyi's expression was normal, his fatigue had already shown itself, "If possible, I hope Hall Master Yun can accompany us on our journey. They were both poisoned, so I can only transfer the poison to seventy to eighty percent of my body. Without proper ingredients, I won't be able to figure out the remaining poison. If we meet people who block our way again, it will be too difficult for me to protect the two of them by myself. "
Yun Kai sighed, "Forget it, since you have nothing to do, I'll accompany you two for a few days. However, in three days, I will be going to do some stuff. After that, it will be up to all of you. "
Gongzi smirked. "Thank you, Hall Master Yun, three days is enough. Hall Master Yun's matters are more important, and Gong Qing knows how to prioritize his matters. "
Yun Kai's gaze shifted, "Do you know where I want to go?"
"I don't know where Hall Master Yun has gone, but I do know why Hall Master Yun has gone." He led the horse forward.
Yun Kai did not ask any further questions as he walked forward with him.
