Liu Fan covered Luo Lianyi's mouth and nose, holding his breath to prevent him from inhaling the poisonous gas, but he still felt dizzy.
"I feel so uncomfortable!" Luo Lianyi's cheeks turned red and she coughed repeatedly.
"Hold your breath!" Liu Fan said, spinning around and using his inner strength to disperse the smoke around him.
Silently, dozens of masked men in black jumped down from the trees. They all attacked them with swords in their hands. Liu Fan waved his sword to resist, and the forest was instantly filled with darkness.
The masked man's attacks were extremely ruthless, especially the leader's, and they even caused death. It was even like a method of killing everyone.
"Brother Emperor!" Liu Fan yelled as he recognized him from his sword strokes.
Liu Huo suddenly tore off her veil and looked at Liu Fan coldly.
"Brother Emperor!" Liu Fan could understand his pursuit, but he couldn't understand his way of sacrificing his life. He frowned and looked at him.
"Since you were born, everything that belonged to me has been taken away by you, including my father's love, my family in Xiling, and finally, even my beloved woman was taken away by you -" Liu Huo said through gritted teeth, eyes filled with laughter.
Full of hatred and sorrow.
"Lianyi was never yours, I just took my woman away!" Liu Fan denied.
"God is so unfair! Why are you so lucky! Everything is yours! It's all yours! And I'm just a wild dog living in a foreign land with nothing!" Liuhuo yelled.
Liu Fan let out a long sigh and said: "The prince was appointed by his father. My father also felt guilty for what he did back then, and even wanted to make amends. It's just that you were too evil and made my father lose confidence in you, and that's why you're here today."
He is in such a state of desolation, who can blame him?"
"Hahaha, my mind is too evil? If I was born to be a prince, would I have to put so much effort into fighting for the prince's position?" Liu Huo laughed wildly, until tears flowed down his face.
"What do you want now?" Liu Fan asked coldly.
"Either you die, or I live!" Liu Huo gritted his teeth.
"Does it have to be this way?"
"No choice!"
After Liu Huo finished speaking, he pointed his sharp sword at Liu Fan, and the dozen masked men also rushed over. Liu Fan held Luo Lianyi while dodging and dismantling their moves. The poisonous mist in the forest had dissipated.
, Luo Lianyi no longer had to hold her breath, she stared at Liuhuo carefully and shouted crisply: "Tanzhong!"
Without thinking, Liu Fan thrust the tip of his sword into Liu Huo's Tanzhong point. Liu Huo suddenly sheathed his sword and changed his moves.
"Jiuwei!" Luo Lianyi called again.
Liu Fan's sharp sword turned and stabbed Liu Huo's tail.
"Qi Hai!"
"Guan Yuan!"
"Eagle Window!"
Luo Lianyi called out acupuncture points one after another. Liu Huo was in a hurry and couldn't dodge. Finally, he was stabbed to the ground by Liu Fan's sword and couldn't move.
Liu Fan's sword tip remained on his Yingchuang point, and he shouted coldly: "Stop it!"
The masked men in black stopped and surrounded them, not daring to come over rashly.
The sound of horse hoofbeats was heard, and the team led by Governor Yin chased after them. Seeing the situation here, they hurriedly ran over. The men in black retreated into a row and confronted them.
"Take it down! Tie it up!" Liu Fan ordered. Governor Yin glared at the man in black and shouted: "Hurry up and release the weapons!"
The men in black looked at each other, but did not obey orders. They roared and killed Governor Yin.
The soldiers from Xiling immediately swarmed up and besieged the men in black. These men in black were really good at martial arts. After a long battle, they still couldn't capture them.
"Hush--" there was a clear whistle, and the people in black all jumped up to the big trees in the forest, and all of a sudden they all ran away.
Liu Fan looked at Liu Huo on the ground and asked sarcastically: "Are these your men? Why did they leave you and run away?"
"It's just that I paid for it yesterday. They don't care about my life or death." Liu Huo smiled sadly.
"Tie him up, take him back to Xiling, and hand him over to Father." Liu Fan tapped Liu Huo's acupuncture points and ordered Governor Yin.
Liuhuo couldn't move, so he had to let them tie him up.
"Let's go." Liu Fan hugged Luo Lianyi and mounted the horse, preparing to set off.
"Don't take me back! Father will kill me!" Liu Huo shouted.
Liu Fan turned around immediately and looked at him without saying a word.
"Let me go! For the sake of your unborn nephew, let me go!" Liu Huo begged.
Liu Fan sneered and said, "Let you go and then come after me again? How much time and energy will I spend chasing you all the way to Xiling?"
"I swear! I will not hunt you down anymore." Liu Huo said.
"I don't know who else can believe your oath." Luo Lianyi interrupted.
Liu Huo smiled bitterly and said: "Well, even if I break my oath, I will no longer be able to chase you. Didn't you see the scene just now?"
Liu Fan smiled, nodded and said, "That's true, Governor Yin, let him go."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Governor Yin was unwilling.
"Let it go, for the sake of my future nephew." Liu Fan smiled and walked away.
Governor Yin reluctantly untied Liuhuo's rope, cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness, please take care of yourself. Please do it."
Liu Huo cupped his fists in return, turned around and left, but after a few steps, he threw out a poisonous silver needle from his sleeve. The silver needle was so small that no one could see it, and it shot toward Liu Fan's back.
Liu Fan had deep inner strength and was extremely sensitive to the slightest sound. When the silver needle approached his back, he suddenly felt it.
He quietly returned his hand and used his inner strength to turn all the needles and launch them back in the direction from which they came.
The silver needles shot back at a faster speed, and were all nailed to Liu Huo's back in an instant. Liu Huo fell to the ground with a bang, and black blood quickly flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Liu Fan hugged Luo Lianyi and dismounted, frowning and approaching him.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince! Be careful!" Governor Yin stood in front of him.
"Help—" After Liu Huo spat out two words, he fainted and fell to the ground, bleeding from all his orifices.
Liu Fan pushed Governor Yin aside and ran towards him.
"Brother Emperor!" he called, stroking his shoulder with his hand.
Liu Huo remained motionless, his entire face turned black and blue.
Liu Fan stretched out his fingers to detect his breath, and there was still a faint breath.
"He's not dead yet!" He looked back at Luo Lianyi.
Luo Lianyi ran over, looked at the silver needle on Liu Huo's back, frowned and said, "I have seen this poisonous needle before, and I used it to stab Tong Fu'an before!"
"Then can you detoxify?" Liu Fan asked hurriedly.
"Yes! I just don't know if we can find detoxifying herbs in the woods! Just wait, I'll look for it!" Luo Lianyi nodded and ran towards the woods. Governor Yin quickly brought a few people to follow him for protection.
Liu Fan helped Liu Huo sit up and tapped several key points on his heart to prevent the poisonous energy from attacking his heart. He put his palm on his back and sent his internal force to force out the poison for Liu Huo.
This poison was very strong and had invaded his internal organs in such a short period of time. Lu Fan used all his strength to force some of it out for him and dripped out from his fingers.
