"Did you hear any sounds?" Bai Ruozhu, who had already successfully snuck into Chisong’s Residence, asked quietly.

"Didn’t hear. Your hearing is the best, if you can’t hear it clearly, we surely can’t." Jiang Yichun whispered.

Because it was far away, and the prison cell was dug underground, the others couldn’t hear anything.

Fortunately, to prevent suffocation, there was a ventilation opening in the cell, from which some sounds were transmitted, allowing Bai Ruozhu to hear.

"It seems to be in that direction. Let’s go take a look." Bai Ruozhu said.

The group bypassed the guards at the General’s Residence, carefully sneaking past them. Sure enough, the sounds grew louder here, and Jiang Yichun also heard the screams of a woman.

"Is it them?" Jiang Yichun, unfamiliar with Fangzi and Yaxi, looked at Bai Ruozhu and asked.

"Whether it’s them or not, let’s go see first." Bai Ruozhu couldn’t hear clearly either, but she vaguely felt it must be them.

The group found the entrance to the dungeon, Bai Ruozhu released the poison, and soon the guards fell one by one.

The few hurriedly dragged the unconscious guards inside before proceeding towards the prison cell.

This time, the screams were heard clearly, Bai Ruozhu’s face changed slightly, "It’s Fangzi’s voice."

The crowd hurried their steps, quickly rushing towards the direction of the sound.

As soon as they arrived, Bai Ruozhu saw Hui Zi with a sinister smile, feeling proud because Fangzi was screaming, unaware that Bai Ruozhu and her group had entered.

Bai Ruozhu dashed forward, fiercely kicking Hui Zi, whose sinister smile abruptly ended, she fell to the side like a snapped kite. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Fangzi, don’t be afraid, it’s me, Bai Ruozhu!" Bai Ruozhu urgently said, while Jiang Yichun and others helped break open the iron lock of the prison cell.

Fangzi collapsed on the ground, shouting, "Sister Ruozhu, hurry save Yaxi, the poisonous insect has entered her eye!"

Eye...

Bai Ruozhu’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately released Furball, and then quickly pressed Yaxi’s acupuncture points, using golden needles to seal the acupoints around her eyes.

"She can still be saved." Bai Ruozhu quickly said, but Yaxi was unconscious, with silver needles pierced around her eyes, looking terrifying, causing Fangzi to cry even louder.

"It’s all my fault for being useless. Yaxi was protecting me when the poisonous insect entered her body. She’s suffering for me. I feel so guilty for her." Fangzi cried.

Fo Lanying hurried to comfort Fangzi, noticing a decayed head beside them, coaxed Fangzi to stand outside the cell.

"Her condition cannot be delayed; she must be treated here. Xiaoyuan, set up an array to block outsiders, they should soon discover us." Bai Ruozhu said.

"Alright, I’m on it." Yuan Licheng walked towards the entrance, Qiu Zhi also went to help.

Jiang Yichun glanced at Hui Zi, said to Jianqi, "Grab that woman, later let Ruozhu deal with her."

Jianqi disdainfully looked at Hui Zi, strode over, instead of pulling her, kicked her hard like a watermelon, sending her to the cell door.

Hui Zi, previously knocked out by Bai Ruozhu’s kick, woke up from the pain, screaming in terror, "Bastard, you’re looking for death!"

Suddenly, she released poisonous insects from her palm, attacking Jianqi swiftly.

Although Jianqi doesn’t rear poisonous insects, being a dark guard for so many years, he’s fully alert.

He drew his sword and blocked fiercely. With a clang, the poisonous insect hit the sword, judging from the sound, its body was very hard.

Fo Lanying quickly released the mechanical puppet to attack the poisonous insect.

At this moment, Tang Feng’s hand suddenly gripped Hui Zi’s throat, saying coldly, "Make your insect behave, or I don’t mind breaking your neck. You can try if your poisonous insect can harm us in the slightest once I take action."

Hui Zi’s face turned pale, reluctantly recalled the poisonous insect, but arrogantly said, "If you kill me, you won’t be able to save Yaxi."

Tang Feng’s hand instantly tightened, "Shut up, what right do you have to be arrogant?"

Bai Ruozhu paid no mind to the commotion over there, pulled Yaxi directly into the Space; fortunately, the others were already accustomed to it, and Fangzi was watching Hui Zi, Hui Zi was confronting Tang Feng, not paying attention to Bai Ruozhu’s situation.

Soon, Bai Ruozhu emerged with Yaxi from the Space, wiped the sweat off her forehead, and said to the group, "Yaxi is fine now, the poisonous insect has been dealt with."

"Impossible!" Hui Zi exclaimed, her face changing, clutching her stomach, as if suffering backlash from the insect’s death.

Bai Ruozhu eerily felt something strange, yet couldn’t pinpoint it.

"Tang Feng, help me take care of Yaxi, I need to deal with Hui Zi properly." Bai Ruozhu said.

Tang Feng nodded, sealed Hui Zi’s acupuncture points, then went to help support Yaxi, who was still unconscious, her pale, bloodless smile evoking pity.

Bai Ruozhu took out a dagger, twirling it at her fingertip, grinding her teeth, "Where should I start with you?"

Hui Zi saw her intent, screamed in fear, "What are you going to do? If you kill me, General Chisong won’t spare you!"

"I want to see what he’ll do to me." Bai Ruozhu didn’t finish her words before suddenly slashing Hui Zi’s arm, "Did you release the poisonous insect with this hand?"

Hui Zi screamed miserably, if she weren’t acupunctured, she’d definitely be rolling on the ground.

Without waiting for her response, Bai Ruozhu stabbed her thigh, "Who gave you the audacity to plot against my friends? Do you really think Chisong can save you?"

"Stop! Spare me, I’m pregnant, you can’t kill me!" Hui Zi trembled in pain, fear replacing the look in her eyes.

Though Fangzi was initially afraid of bloodshed, now she found courage, for Sister Ruozhu saved them and avenged their grievance.

"Pregnant, so what? You think I’ll soften?" Bai Ruozhu’s face darkened with cruelty, "Speak, who taught you to rear the poisonous insect? How long have you learned it? Who else do you know rear poisonous insects? If you don’t speak, I’ll continue using the dagger."

"Bai Ruozhu, you can’t do this. How can you be so heartless? They’re not dead, are they? If you kill me, my unborn child will also die, he’s innocent, you can’t kill me!" Hui Zi cried out.

Without thinking, Bai Ruozhu suddenly plunged the dagger into Hui Zi’s other leg, "Too much nonsense, answer my questions, I won’t repeat them a second time!"

Hui Zi screamed in pain, looking hesitant, but also scared of something.
