There were two men in black cloaks with their faces covered. They moved at an astonishing speed and appeared in front of Tang Youyou in the blink of an eye.
Tang Youyou was startled and quickly stepped back. But she had only taken two steps when the two figures blocked her way. In an instant, she grew anxious. She hadn't readied the silver needles in her hand yet, and her hair had all come loose, revealing her identity as a woman.
"Be careful!"
Su Ran moved extremely fast and tried to protect her, but he was entangled by another protector of the old man and couldn't reach her in time.
During the physical contact, they realized that Tang Youyou was actually a woman...
Suddenly, the black - cloaked man spun his wrist, and a palm wind attacked her.
Oh no!
Su Ran was anxious but couldn't break free from the entanglement. Tang Youyou kept retreating, but without internal energy or skills, she was hit by a palm and then fell hard to the ground. Blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.
"Little girl, this isn't a place for you to act wildly. Just watch obediently and don't go against our Blood Clan's Third Elder!" the black - cloaked man said.
They were attacking their own people? Didn't they recognize Su Ran? It seemed this guy's status in the Blood Clan wasn't high enough!
"Pah!"
Tang Youyou spat out the dirt in her mouth forcefully, raised her hand to wipe the corner of her mouth, and glared angrily at the black - cloaked man. "Your Third Elder is nothing but a dead old man. What's so great about him!"
"You little bitch, you're asking for death!"
Hearing this, the black - cloaked man flew into a rage and suddenly swung his right palm, hitting Tang Youyou hard in the chest.
"Bang!"
"She's from the Blood Clan!"
Su Ran shouted at the top of his voice, but it was too late. He was distracted, and his skills didn't reach their full potential. He was firmly entangled by the opponent.
Tang Youyou only felt a sharp pain in her chest. A huge force hit her, sending her flying and crashing heavily into the wall. Blood gushed out, staining the wall red. She struggled to get up but was so weak that she could only let the blood drip on her body.
"Damn it!" Tang Youyou cursed inwardly. She never expected that these Blood Clan members would be so despicable as to launch a sneak attack!
"Little girl, if you're smart, get out of here quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
The black - cloaked man gave a cold shout and attacked Tang Youyou again.
Looking at the approaching black - cloaked man, a look of despair flashed in Tang Youyou's eyes. She knew that today, she might not be able to escape...
No, perhaps it was a one - in - ten chance of survival!
Just as the black - cloaked man was about to attack Tang Youyou, with a loud noise, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open.
Everyone turned their heads. When they saw the white - clothed man standing at the door, they were all stunned for a moment, and then their eyes became eager.
Mo Lingxuan looked at Tang Youyou lying on the ground, instantly frowning. A glint of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"I'd like to see who dares to touch her!"
Mo Lingxuan's cold voice resounded throughout the private room. His handsome face was so gloomy that it was terrifying, like an enraged lion.
"Hiss! Isn't this kid Mo Lingxuan? He actually steps in for a stinky girl. What on earth is this girl's background? How can she make the guest elder protect her?"
"This is going to be interesting. This little girl is really unlucky. She's actually offended the Third Elder of the Blood Clan."
"Indeed. This is a big shot. We ordinary people can't afford to offend him!"
"However, judging from the situation, there's bound to be a death on one side today."
Everyone was whispering to each other, looking like they were watching a good show.
However, just as Mo Lingxuan was about to step in to save Tang Youyou, the old man blocked his way.
Mo Lingxuan let out a cold snort and looked at the old man with disgust.
"You'd better get out of my way, Your Highness."
The old man looked at Mo Lingxuan with a smile and showed no sign of giving in. Instead, he provoked him. "Kid, are you ordering me?"
"What? Are your ears just for show?" Mo Lingxuan raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were filled with thick killing intent.
"Kid, do you know who you're talking to?" The old man seemed extremely angry with Mo Lingxuan, and his face became ferocious.
"I don't care who you are. Get out of my way, Your Highness!" Mo Lingxuan gave a cold shout. His dark eyes were full of hostility.
This guy dared to block his way. He was simply asking for death!
"Kid, you're too arrogant!"
The old man was so angry that steam was coming out of his seven orifices. He grabbed Tang Youyou from behind.
"Since someone wants to save you, then I'll let you die!"
Hearing this, a look of anxiety immediately appeared on Mo Lingxuan's face.
"Let her go!"
At the same time, Tang Youyou quickly took out three silver needles from her sleeve and shot them at the old man...
"Ah!"
Then, a scream of pain rang out.
Tang Youyou glanced at the old man rolling on the ground in pain, her eyes full of disdain.
What an ungrateful guy. He actually dared to take her life!
"Who do you think you are? Do you think my life is something you can take whenever you want? Even if I were to give it to you, could you handle it?"
Tang Youyou looked at him with a smile on her face, the mockery evident in her eyes.
She then continued. "Aren't you claiming to be all - powerful, a top - notch doctor in the medical world? Come on, try to stand up now."
The old man gritted his teeth and stared at Tang Youyou. He never expected this girl to attack him so viciously!
But he had to admit that this girl was really powerful. Just now, he clearly felt a cold qi invading his internal organs, making his blood stop flowing.
Moreover, this girl's methods were very strange, and he had no way to solve the problem.
Mo Lingxuan was also stunned. He never expected that Tang Youyou would suddenly launch a sneak attack on the old man!
But Tang Youyou's move was really too risky.
If the old man hadn't been caught off guard by Tang Youyou's sudden sneak attack, he would probably have detected her presence earlier.
If Mo Lingxuan hadn't stepped in in time, Tang Youyou would probably have lost her life.
At this time, Su Ran had already killed the black - cloaked man with a sword and immediately came to Tang Youyou's side.
Seeing this, Mo Lingxuan's pupils contracted, but he silently moved to one side.
"Stinky girl, I've really fallen into your hands today." The old man gritted his teeth and stared at Tang Youyou, his eyes full of hatred and anger.
"Don't you forget that this is the Medicine King Valley of the Blood Clan. Guest elder, you've led an outsider to break into a restricted area. Your crime is even greater!"
A look of solemnity flashed in Su Ran's eyes. The old man was right. Although the Medicine King Valley was a restricted area, because there were many rare medicinal materials here, he wasn't overly afraid.
Moreover, the master of the Medicine King Valley was an elder he knew. Naturally, he couldn't do anything to the Medicine King Valley...
And since Tang Youyou was brought back by him, he naturally couldn't hand her over.
"Do you think you can threaten me like this?"
"I don't." The Third Elder shrugged, glanced at the servants beside him, and motioned for them to put him on a chair.
