Volume 1_Chapter 265: Life for a life

Yun Qiyue's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

Although she had used a damaging move just now, the old man's martial arts value was solid, so she had more or less suffered internal injuries.

Therefore, at this time, Yun Qiyue's dodging was somewhat strenuous.

However, in Yun Qiyue's view, she was dodging very strenuously.

But, the old man's heart was surging.

He used all his strength, and that little girl could actually dodge it?

The old man was even angrier.

He used all his strength even more to deal with Yun Qiyue.

However, the old man didn't know that the more he used all his strength, the slower his speed became.

He only found that the more he used all his strength, the more Yun Qiyue was able to dodge.

This undoubtedly stimulated the old man quite a bit.

However, this old man was not a reckless person after all, so he quickly sensed something was wrong.

Looking at his palm that had just been pricked by the needles, the old man's heart was turbulent, and his face was even more filled with anger, "Stinking girl, what did you do to me?"

It was impossible for him not to think it was the problem of the needles.

However, he had clearly been immune to all poisons long ago, so how did this girl make him fall into the trap?

The old man looked at Yun Qiyue squarely for the first time, his heart unable to be calm.

Heaven knows what a huge price he paid to be immune to all poisons.

But now, his immunity to all poisons was about to fail?

Seeing the old man notice, Yun Qiyue's lips also curled into an arc, carrying a few traces of arrogance, "Naturally, life for a life."

Yun Qiyue didn't just say this casually.

She was indeed exchanging life for life with this perverted old man.

Because she knew very clearly in her heart that she was not this old man's opponent, and ordinary poison was useless for this old man.

And she, Yun Qiyue, was absolutely not someone who would sit and wait for death.

So, she used her life value as the price to exchange with the system for a kind of neurotoxin from the New Century.

Neurotoxin is not in the same vein as ordinary poison; it acts on the nerves and can control and weaken a person's nerves, thereby weakening the opponent's mobility.

However, this was also a big gamble.

Because she didn't know why this old man was immune to all poisons, so she didn't know if the neurotoxin would work on the old man.

However, compared to being smashed into pieces by the old man without any effort, it was better to gamble.

If she won the gamble, she would still have the opportunity to find the Imperial Uncle to replenish her life value.

If she lost the gamble, it would just be death.

It was just that dying on her wedding day was somewhat tragic and desolate.

However, fortunately, she had won.

Now, she must quickly decide the outcome with the old man, and then quickly return to the capital to find the Imperial Uncle to replenish her life value.

Otherwise, even if she solved the old man, she would still die.

After having this idea, Yun Qiyue didn't delay much, directly with a sharp blade in one hand and a scalpel in the other, in a posture of attacking with both hands, approaching the old man at the fastest speed.

However, even if he was poisoned by the neurotoxin and the old man's speed was hindered, the old man's strength was still there after all.

Therefore, this duel with the old man was actually not easy for Yun Qiyue.

Finally, when the old man lay in a pool of blood, Yun Qiyue was also almost exhausted.

The injuries on Yun Qiyue's body were no less than the old man's.

If it were normal times, she could still use points or life value to exchange for some medicine to heal her injuries, but now, she couldn't.

Yun Qiyue's current life value balance was less than two, and she didn't know when the system would light up the red light.

And for the current plan, she must rush back to the Regent's Mansion at the fastest speed.

Otherwise, her happy event would become her funeral.

Yun Qiyue retrieved some hemostatic medicine she had prepared from the space; although the effect was good, for her situation, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Because the external injuries were relatively not that serious, the main thing was internal injuries.

However, Yun Qiyue couldn't care about that much, identified the direction of the capital, and ran wildly all the way.

While running wildly, she prayed in her heart that her life value would never light up the red light.

Because once the life value lights up the red light, the consumption of life value is extremely fast, and even if she could use lightness skills, she might not be able to keep up with the reduction speed after the life value lights up red.

However, after all, Yun Qiyue was seriously injured at this time.

So, after this wild run, Yun Qiyue felt as if her strength was being sucked away bit by bit.

In the end, Yun Qiyue was almost running with willpower.

She was about to reach her limit.

However, Yun Qiyue thought she was running fast, but in fact, she was just moving forward at a turtle's pace.

And at this time, the city wall did not appear in front of her eyes.

"Bang—" with a sound, Yun Qiyue fell heavily to the ground, and dust rose everywhere.

Yun Qiyue lay on the ground, her fingers moved, and she had no strength to get up at all.

The system urged urgently, "Host, host, the life value balance is about to be insufficient, host, you must think of a way."

The system's voice was very mechanical, and it had the effect of refreshing the mind.

However, after serious injuries, Yun Qiyue's body had reached its limit.

Even if her consciousness was clear for a moment, she really couldn't get up.

She wanted to rest well, just, sleeping for a while would be fine.

"Host, there is still hope, don't sleep, you must not sleep..."

The system's words rang out over and over again.

However, Yun Qiyue didn't move.

She didn't even notice that the way the system spoke now had much more emotion than before.

Except for the system's voice still being a mechanical sound, the rest was like a person.

If it had feet, the system would definitely be jumping with anger at this moment.

Yun Qiyue didn't know any of this.

She just wanted to sleep.

She was too tired, everything, wait until she woke up.

At this time, Yun Qiyue's consciousness was already very blurred.

Even the strength of the survival instinct was gone.

After all, no matter how strong the physique is, after extreme consumption, it will be exhausted.

Until Yun Qiyue felt that she could finally rest, and was finally about to fall asleep, Yun Qiyue heard a sound of horse hooves.

"Sir, over there."

Someone was shouting.

Then, there were more horse hooves nearby.

Through the ground as a medium, Yun Qiyue only felt it was deafening.

Fortunately, the sound of horse hooves finally disappeared.

Yun Qiyue had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard a familiar yet unfamiliar voice, "Girl, wake up."

Who is this voice?

Yun Qiyue furrowed her brows.

Then she felt her body being lifted up.

Opening her eyes slightly, she saw an old man.

A bit familiar, it seems... surnamed... Pi?

Right, Pi Deheng!

This name appeared in Yun Qiyue's mind.

At the same time, the system's alarm sounded, "Host, life value balance is insufficient..."

The green progress bar turned red.

At this time, Yun Qiyue knew to be shocked.

And she didn't care why this Pi Deheng appeared here, Yun Qiyue used all her strength to say, "Take me... back to the Regent's Mansion..." ===== CHAPTER 266 =====
