423: Plan to escape

"This is our second time meeting, right? How do I know who you are? I'm just saving you right now, don't overthink it." Chen Tianming glanced at Liu Yuyan.

"Hmph, can your words be trusted?" Liu Yuyan said coldly.

"Miss Liu, if you don't believe my words now, you are free to leave right this moment. Let's see if your body can hold up!"

Listening to Chen Tianming's words, Liu Yuyan tried to wiggle her body, but finally discovered that her whole body was incredibly sore and weak.

Chen Tianming looked at Liu Yuyan's condition and immediately asked: "Miss Liu, you should rest. I will help you expel the toxins first."

"Alright."

Liu Yuyan did not try to act tough anymore.

Although this toxin was strange, it wasn't that terrifying. She had some strength now and should be able to hold on.

Thinking of this, Liu Yuyan closed her eyes and began to recover her martial arts.

As time passed, the poison in Chen Tianming's body became more and more severe. However, Chen Tianming still held firm to his original intention and was not bewitched by Liu Yuyan's beauty.

Seeing that Chen Tianming did not have any ulterior motives, Liu Yuyan was secretly happy in her heart.

This saved her a lot of trouble.

Just when Chen Tianming was about to be unable to hold on, Liu Yuyan suddenly stopped circulating her energy, opened her eyes, and looked at Chen Tianming: "Young Master Chen, you can go now, I am fine."

"How am I supposed to leave?" Chen Tianming asked curiously.

Liu Yuyan pointed to the tree trunk nearby and said: "You walk from here."

"Don't forget, those black-clad men haven't given up on hunting you down. They are currently gathering troops to search everywhere for you!" Chen Tianming called out worriedly.

"Then what should we do?" Liu Yuyan asked.

"I can use poison needles to help you force out the toxins. You'll have to endure it!" Chen Tianming nodded solemnly.

Seeing Liu Yuyan nod in agreement, Chen Tianming immediately took out a silver needle from his spatial ring.

"Swish."

A streak of silver light shot forward and pierced directly into a tree.

After Chen Tianming pulled out the silver needle, Liu Yuyan felt a wave of relief and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Chen Tianming took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to Liu Yuyan: "Drink the medicinal liquid in this bottle. This contains our unique detoxification pill, which has the effect of neutralizing a hundred poisons. If you trust me, take it; if not..."

"Thank you."

Liu Yuyan took the bottle of detoxification pills, poured out one, and swallowed it.

As the detoxification pill entered her abdomen, a powerful energy surged throughout her body, greatly enhancing Liu Yuyan's internal energy.

At this time, Chen Tianming also began to circulate his energy, continuously refining the toxins in his body.

Both Chen Tianming and she were refining the toxins in their bodies, but it took a while.

After about half an incense stick of time, Chen Tianming suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his complexion becoming extremely unsightly.

This toxin was truly formidable. Chen Tianming had tried for a long time, but still hadn't completely forced it out; he had only managed to expel some of the superficial damage.

"Miss Liu, I hope you can successfully lead us out of this palace!"

Listening to Chen Tianming's words, Liu Yuyan nodded slightly, "I understand. This is an exchange between the two of us. I need to get out anyway!"

With Liu Yuyan leading the way, their journey indeed seemed much easier.

When Chen Tianming and Liu Yuyan came out of the cave, there were some birds in the sky that scattered and fled upon seeing them.

"You two shouldn't run around aimlessly. If you run into those black-clad masked men, you might meet an untimely death."

Chen Tianming said dismissively: "We have already encountered quite a few such attacks. After all, since we chose to help you, it is only natural that we have made enemies of them."

Saying this indifferently, Chen Tianming was also observing the surrounding environment.

Although they hadn't encountered any danger right now, they hadn't found any treasures along the way either, and these black-clad men weren't encountered that often.

If things continued like this, they would definitely not be able to get out of this palace, so they had to escape from here as soon as possible.

Looking at the forest ahead, Liu Yuyan couldn't help but ask Chen Tianming: "Young Master Chen, do you know where this is?"

"I don't know either, but it should be the outside world; I just don't know exactly where this is." Chen Tianming shook his head and said.

Hearing Chen Tianming say this, Liu Yuyan couldn't help but frown.

Those black-clad men said earlier that they were waiting outside, so why didn't they come over to catch Chen Tianming?

Could it be that they already knew Chen Tianming's strength was not bad, so they didn't dare to cause trouble themselves and were letting other black-clad men come to make trouble?

Liu Yuyan thought this in her heart, but thinking of the terrifying nature of those black-clad men, her heart sank a little more.

Seeing that Liu Yuyan's expression was a bit strange, Chen Tianming couldn't help but ask: "Miss Liu, what's wrong?"

"I'm fine." Liu Yuyan shook her head.

"You still say you're fine, you're about to cry. Why don't I carry you on my back so we can move faster." Chen Tianming said with concern.

"No need. It's just that this place reminded me of some things, so I can't help but feel a bit melancholy!"

Liu Yuyan pursed her lips and lowered her head in melancholy.

Watching her appearance, Chen Tianming didn't know how to comfort her in his heart. He glanced at the nearby area and frowned.

Remembering something, Chen Tianming turned his head again and looked at Liu Yuyan: "Miss Liu, are you going to follow me then? If you follow me, I won't care what your identity is; we will just be ordinary friends. If you come with me, I will protect you."

"Hmph, do you think I dare not follow you?" Liu Yuyan said nonchalantly.

Chen Tianming said: "Alright, let's set off now. Follow behind me. If there is danger, I will save you, during the time of our cooperation."

Liu Yuyan hesitated; after all, Chen Tianming was still in a comatose state, if she ran away alone, she would definitely encounter other trouble.

"Young Master Chen, then I will follow you now." Liu Yuyan said.

Seeing that Liu Yuyan agreed, Chen Tianming couldn't help but turn around happily.

Seeing Chen Tianming turn around, Liu Yuyan was secretly happy, thinking that she was truly lucky to have found such a fool.

Chen Tianming walked in front to lead the way, a cold sneer hanging on the corner of his lips.

This time, he wanted to use Liu Yuyan to lure that group of black-clad men out, and then kill them, so that he would be safe.

He didn't need to consider anything else, just leave smoothly. As for the exchange with the black-clad men earlier, that would depend on whether the other party could survive until the end!

Thinking of this, Chen Tianming quickened his pace and ran towards the depths of the forest.

In a short while, Chen Tianming entered the forest, but he discovered that this forest was very quiet. One had to know that this was a place they had previously searched, yet now, there wasn't a single person to be seen here.
