Fearing to tip off the enemy, Huayueye didn't directly expose their identities. Instead, he disguised himself and went straight to the study of the Prince of Rui, hoping to find some evidence.
However, after searching for a long time, they found nothing.
"Su Qingwen, did you make a mistake again? There's simply nothing here," Huayueye said to her somewhat helplessly, his brows knitted tightly.
"Well..." Su Qingwen scratched her head in confusion. Logically, it shouldn't be like this. The Prince of Rui must be the culprit. How could there be no evidence?
"Who's there?" Suddenly, there came a rush of footsteps outside. It seemed that someone had discovered them!
"Run quickly!" Su Qingwen grabbed Huayueye and rushed towards the door at full speed. But as soon as she opened the door, she quickly shut it again.
"What's wrong?" Seeing her terrified look, Huayueye couldn't help but sigh.
"There are so many servants outside. We're doomed this time," Su Qingwen covered her lips, feeling extremely desperate. Her mind was in a complete mess. How could they get out of this?
"Can I use the invisibility function?" Su Qingwen blinked her eyes and began to ask the system for help.
[System: Honey, you can't do that now. You've used it too many times recently. And Huayueye is here. How can you use the invisibility function? Won't it expose you?]
Right! Su Qingwen bit her lips and couldn't help but slap her forehead. What crazy ideas she had! She was just digging a hole for herself.
"Follow me," Huayueye shook his head helplessly. He lifted Su Qingwen from the ground as if she were a little chick.
Seeing this, Su Qingwen turned pale with fright. She almost let out a panicked scream. Then she felt her body lighten. It seemed that she and Huayueye had "flown" out of the window.
This must be the legendary light - body skill! It looked so amazing. Su Qingwen felt as if she were on a roller - coaster with Huayueye, her body swooping down quickly.
"Look, those two thieves are over there. Shoot quickly!" a man roared.
Immediately, the servants all drew their bows and aimed their sharp arrows at the two of them, shooting forcefully.
The arrows came whistling through the air. Su Qingwen was so frightened that her face turned ashen. Her body trembled involuntarily. Then, Huayueye immediately protected her behind him.
At that moment, Su Qingwen's eyes widened. So this was what it felt like to be protected. It wasn't bad at all.
"Be careful!" In an instant, she quickly reacted. She reached out and grabbed Huayueye's collar, looking at him nervously.
"I'm fine," Huayueye squinted his eyes. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. He reached out and put his arm around Su Qingwen's waist, coldly looking at the servants below.
His kind adoptive father had actually placed so many well - trained servants in his mansion. What on earth was he up to?
The Prince of Rui also rushed out. He looked up at Huayueye and Su Qingwen. A cold look flashed in his eyes. He whispered an order to the butler beside him.
Soon, an archer took out a high - quality crossbow. He smeared something on it and aimed an arrow at Su Qingwen.
Huayueye had to protect Su Qingwen while resisting the attacks. He was really overwhelmed. Suddenly, an arrow flashed in front of his eyes. It was about to pierce Su Qingwen's body.
Seeing this, Su Qingwen's pupils dilated. She was about to push Huayueye away and take the arrow herself. After all, she had the system. She should be okay.
But Huayueye was so fast and so strong. Before she could react, Huayueye had already stepped sideways to block in front of her.
"..." Huayueye let out a muffled groan. He heard the sound of the arrow piercing his body.
"You idiot!" Looking at the bright red blood on his chest, Su Qingwen's eyes couldn't help but turn red. She bit her lips tightly. Her body trembled continuously. She supported his shoulders.
"Don't cry, idiot," Huayueye smiled bitterly. He stared into her sorrowful eyes. "Hold me tight. We have to get out of here quickly."
"Okay," there was a bone - deep hatred in Su Qingwen's eyes. She clenched her fists and then turned to look at the Prince of Rui.
"System, what should I do now? This Prince of Rui is really going too far!" She was like a stubborn little beast, looking at the front fiercely with her brows tightly knitted.
[System: Honey, since you don't have many points now, you can't confront the villain head - on. You can only outwit him. But seeing you so pitiful, I'll give you a chance to have an energy outburst.]
"Great. I must make that Prince of Rui pay the price!" Su Qingwen sneered. The smile on her lips was so cold, and her eyes were extremely fierce.
[System: You only have one chance, honey. You must cherish it. And the energy outburst may have a backlash...]
"Stop talking nonsense. Burst out, my little universe!" Su Qingwen felt a sudden surge of strength in her body. She shouted and then put Huayueye down and rushed towards the Prince of Rui.
At that moment, she was like a little cannonball. Nothing could stop her.
"Stop her quickly!" The Prince of Rui was also frightened. He immediately ordered the servants beside him to protect him. But it was already too late. Su Qingwen was so fast that those people were no match for her. She was like a terminator, charging straight at the Prince of Rui.
She rammed her knee hard into the Prince's rib. The pain shot through him. The Prince of Rui felt a sharp pain in his chest. Tears welled up in his eyes. A metallic taste filled his mouth. He frowned tightly, and his face turned pale in an instant.
"Someone, quickly catch... them..." the Prince of Rui said painfully.
However, Su Qingwen was now like a terminator, full of strength. These people were no match for her. She didn't linger in the fight. She directly pulled Huayueye beside her and rushed out of the Prince of Rui's mansion at full speed.
"Huayueye?" In the blink of an eye, Huayueye didn't move at all. No matter how she called him, he didn't open his eyes.
A sense of panic welled up in her heart. Su Qingwen desperately called out to him, "Huayueye, don't fall asleep. Wake up quickly!"
"..." But all she got in reply was silence.
Su Qingwen looked down at Huayueye's wound and found that the blood had turned an eerie black color. There seemed to be signs of pus.
"What's this?" Even if she had never eaten pork, she had seen a pig run. This clearly meant he was poisoned. Su Qingwen lowered her head and recalled that there had been a bright green mark on the tip of the arrow. The Prince of Rui was really cruel, forcing Huayueye into a desperate situation.
