People are easily deceived by illusions when they have weaknesses.
When Chu Qianli chased after him, she wasn't sure if Feng Yexuan, such a formidable person, had any weaknesses in his heart.
When she clearly saw Feng Yexuan parry one of the assassins with his sword and then rush towards another nearby, she knew.
He truly had a weakness!
And at this moment, his mind was controlled by this weakness!
"Feng Yexuan, he's fake!" she rushed over at the fastest speed possible.
But it was too late.
Feng Yexuan lunged in front of the assassin and grabbed him.
That same movement!
That same way!
This was clearly his most unique gesture towards her!
Chu Qianli's heart tightened instantly.
She never dreamed that the God of War, Prince Xuan's weakness, was actually... her!
The illusion created by the assassin resembled her!
Why her? How could it be!
"Feng Yexuan, I'm here!" Chu Qianli roared hoarsely.
That voice... Feng Yexuan's bewildered mind instantly cleared!
The person he was holding was not his woman at all!
As he was about to unleash a palm strike with his internal energy, a sharp pain suddenly erupted on his chest!
The short knife in the assassin's hand plunged fiercely into his heart!
The potent poison spread throughout his body in an instant.
The assassin pulled the short knife from him and was about to strike again.
But before that blow could land, he was stabbed from behind.
Chu Qianli kicked the assassin away and quickly reached Feng Yexuan: "You..."
The short knife was indeed poisoned!
Seeing the black blood seeping from his chest, her nose inexplicably stung.
"You... why are you so stupid!"
Feng Yexuan stared at her face. After releasing a breath of internal energy, he could no longer resist the invasion of the poison, and his tall body slowly collapsed.
"Han Zhan, guard him!" Chu Qianli supported Feng Yexuan and immediately took out silver needles, sealing several of his acupoints.
Han Zhan drew his sword without a word and stood guard around them.
Chu Qianli laid Feng Yexuan on the ground, letting the girl fuss over him. His eyes, however, only reflected her face.
He didn't know why he had rushed to rescue the woman who looked like her without a second thought.
She called him stupid, and in fact, even he thought he was indeed stupid.
He had never made such a mistake before!
When he saw her appearance just now, he had indeed considered that it might be fake.
But his heart immediately tensed up, and his body moved beyond his control.
Even if there was only a ten percent chance it was real, he couldn't not save her!
He couldn't stand by and watch her get hurt!
Chu Qianli's feelings were indescribably complex, but at this moment, she couldn't afford to indulge in further thoughts!
After sealing his acupoints, she administered a universal antidote, then gave him an injection to barely halt the poison's progression.
"Don't move, absolutely do not circulate your energy! Leave this matter to me!"
Once everything was handled, she stood up, glanced at Han Zhan, and said, "Help me guard him!"
Then, with silver needles concealed in her hand, she leaped up and rushed towards the assassins.
"Don't... go..." Feng Yexuan tried to get up, but as soon as he moved, a surge of blood rushed to his head.
He opened his mouth, and a mouthful of black blood gushed out.
In his vision, the white-clad woman's figure was as agile as a rainbow.
Watching the assassins fall one by one, Feng Yexuan's concern gradually turned into admiration.
So, his woman... was this capable!
He had never known.
This was the first time Feng Yexuan had witnessed Chu Qianli in combat.
Just as Leng Ji had described in vivid detail, her movements were strange and agile, and her hidden weapons hit their mark with every throw!
Her combat prowess was exceptional!
However, after watching for a while, Feng Yexuan's heart suddenly felt a faint unease.
She was far more outstanding than he had imagined.
But because she was too outstanding, he suddenly felt a sense of not being able to grasp or control her.
As her wings grew stronger, would she one day break free from his control and soar away completely?
