268: retreat

Physician Chen gasped, "And this white mist, you must not touch it, otherwise even the immortals could not save you."

"Understood, Physician Chen, rest assured, we are well aware of this." Nan Qingyue smiled slightly; she had taken everything to heart.

Situ Jiu, however, appeared completely indifferent. Subsequently, his face darkened, and a cold glint erupted in his eyes.

It was precisely at this moment.

Nan Qingyue turned back to glance at Situ Jiu, feeling even more curious.

Just now, why did Situ Jiu show such an expression? Could it be that I saw it wrong?

But that shouldn't be; Situ Jiu's appearance just now was filled with baleful energy, inevitably making one gasp.

Nan Qingyue's heart trembled; she felt that Situ Jiu was filled with baleful energy today.

"A Jiu, what is wrong with you?" Nan Qingyue asked curiously, her brows tightly furrowed.

"It's nothing, Senior Sister, I'm just a bit tired, my physical state is not great." Situ Jiu smiled slightly and brushed it off.

However, Nan Qingyue did not believe these words at all. A cold glint erupted in her eyes as she stared fixedly at Situ Jiu.

This truly made one suspicious.

"Let's go, Senior Sister, let's go." Situ Jiu smiled slightly, stepped forward, and chased after the direction where Physician Chen was.

Nan Qingyue, however, froze in place. She gasped, feeling quite helpless.

Afterward, after deep thought for a long while, Nan Qingyue finally regained her senses, stepped forward, and chased after Physician Chen.

"A Jiu, wait for me." Nan Qingyue called out.

However, Situ Jiu did not stop; instead, he accelerated his pace.

But at this moment, Physician Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks; he stood before a thatched cottage.

"We have arrived!" Physician Chen said with a darkened face, wearing a serious expression.

And just at this moment, Physician Chen's brows were tightly furrowed; looking at her appearance, he seemed to have something on his mind.

Nan Qingyue also felt it was strange. What exactly was wrong with Situ Jiu and Physician Chen? After entering Dongxiang Thirteenth Long Street, the two of them were quite helpless.

The two of them were just too strange!

"Physician Chen, is this Tingfeng Hall on Dongxiang Thirteenth Long Street?" Nan Qingyue gasped, feeling quite helpless.

Afterward, Nan Qingyue stood beside Physician Chen, her face darkened.

"That's right, this is it. Next, we are going in." Physician Chen raised his head and glanced at the plaque.

"Alright, let's go, Physician Chen!" Situ Jiu did not delay; he reached out and pushed the door open directly.

But just at this moment.

Physician Chen's pupils constricted sharply; he suddenly remembered something.

"Young Master, quickly get away from there, be careful!" Physician Chen shouted explosively, but it was already too late when he said this.

In the air, Arrows hummed. Countless Arrows shot out from within the door. Situ Jiu had just pushed the door open, and what entered his eyes were several Arrows.

A cold glint erupted in Situ Jiu's eyes, "Hurry! Leave this place!"

Seeing this scene, Situ Jiu's reaction was quite fast; he leaped into the air and hid directly in front of the wall next to the door.

"Young lady, quickly dodge!" Physician Chen shouted hurriedly.

After hearing this, Nan Qingyue did not waste words; her movements were fast, and she immediately hid behind the wall.

In the courtyard inside the door, countless Arrows shot out.

The direction these Arrows were shot was aimed precisely at the door. If one had reacted any slower, they would certainly have been shot to death by these Arrows!

The Arrows quickly shot simultaneously onto the stone.

With a loud boom, the huge stone was instantly shattered by these Arrows.

"Whew, that was close. If we hadn't reacted fast just now, we would have lost our lives!" Nan Qingyue gasped, using this method to calm herself down.

Recalling the scene just now, Nan Qingyue also felt some lingering fear, and she let out a long sigh.

If Nan Qingyue's reaction had been a bit slower, she would certainly have been shot to death here by these Arrows and likely would not have been able to see Li Changfeng.

"Be careful, there are traps here!" Physician Chen said with a darkened face. Only after seeing that everyone was safe did he let out a sigh of relief, "I am truly sorry, I forgot to mention just now that there are traps inside Tingfeng Hall. You must be extremely careful after entering."

Physician Chen had been careless just now; otherwise, he would not have let everyone step into danger.

Situ Jiu snorted coldly, feeling quite helpless.

"What is the use of saying that now? We almost died just now! Old thing, you almost got us killed!" The anger in Situ Jiu's heart was instantly ignited.

Situ Jiu was quite helpless; if this had been someone else, they probably would have died here already.

Thinking back carefully, it was truly terrifying.

Really do not know what kind of intentions this Physician Chen has!

"I really did not do it on purpose!" Physician Chen gasped, feeling quite helpless.

If there were another way, it would not have been like this.

"Forget it, forget it, I really cannot be bothered to talk to you. Since it has come to this, there is no other way." Situ Jiu let out a long sigh.

"Alright, A Jiu, this is something that could not be helped! Better not blame Physician Chen." Nan Qingyue turned back and looked at Situ Jiu.

After hearing this, Situ Jiu finally let out a long sigh and nodded gently.

"Alright, understood. Physician Chen, can we actually go in now? I do not want to lose my life here; that would really be too much of a loss." Situ Jiu glanced at Physician Chen.

Afterward, Physician Chen lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

Physician Chen looked around, then poked his head out to look into the courtyard inside the door.

"Alright, it is fine now, let's go. If you do not believe me, I can walk in front." Physician Chen let out a sigh of relief; the courtyard had returned to calm.

And just at this moment.

Physician Chen stepped forward, and he had already arrived in the courtyard.

Situ Jiu and Nan Qingyue stood at the door, both of them raising their heads to look at the clouds of dust in the courtyard.

"Senior Sister, is it really alright?" Situ Jiu gasped, "Physician Chen has already gone in; he truly has great courage!"

"Let's go, we should go too; there should be nothing wrong here now." Nan Qingyue nodded, and she stepped forward.

Afterward, Nan Qingyue gasped, and after first calming herself down, she stepped into the courtyard.

At this moment, nothing happened in the courtyard, which allowed Nan Qingyue to set her mind at ease.

"Senior Sister, it really seems like there is nothing wrong here!" Situ Jiu was overjoyed, his eyes brightening.

This was even better. Originally, Situ Jiu and Nan Qingyue had only come to ask about one thing; they did not want to lose their lives here just like that.
