Zhao Ling held on to her consciousness and looked at the entrance of the cave with all her attention. Then she felt the presence of a flower in front of her eyes, and there was a fluffy little thing in her arms.

It was the little fox. Zhao Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

"Little fox is so smart, I knew you would definitely find me." Zhao Ling touched its head and said softly.

The blue-eyed spirit fox looked at her with big eyes, and whimpered, as if she was happy to find her.

At this moment, the moonlight streaming in from outside the cave was suddenly blocked by a tall black shadow. Zhao Ling raised her head alertly, only to see a man even more handsome than the moonlight standing at the entrance of the cave under the hazy moonlight.

Before she could see who it was, Zhao Ling felt herself falling into a warm and familiar embrace.

A faint herbal smell came to her nose, and the cool smell relieved the burning feeling in her heart. She felt relieved that she had been hanging on.

"Meng Yuan, you are finally here." Zhao Ling said dully in his arms.

Meng Yuan hugged her tightly, her hands trembling slightly. "I'm sorry, Ling'er, I'm late."

She shook her head. In fact, Meng Yuan had arrived much earlier than she expected.

"Take me out of here." Zhao Ling moved uncomfortably in his arms. Bi Luohua's toxicity was getting stronger and stronger, but her self-control was getting weaker and weaker. She couldn't stay here and become Yin Zhan's bargaining chip to threaten Meng Yuan.

"Okay, Ling'er, let's go." It was rare to see Zhao Ling showing such a lazy and well-behaved side in front of him. Meng Yuan felt that his heart was about to be melted, and the gentle tone was infinitely pampering.

He carefully picked her up, turned and stepped out of the cave.

Yan Mo and Changdong, who were guarding outside, immediately greeted him.

"My lord, how is she?" Yan Mo was worried about Zhao Ling's safety and couldn't help asking aloud. Chang Dong also secretly looked at Meng Yuan's arms with a worried expression.

But the lord was so protective that they couldn't see it at all.

Meng Yuan ignored him and only asked, "Do you know what poison is in the princess' body?"

Yan Mo lowered his head, his tone a little hesitant. "According to my subordinates, it should be... the poison of Bi Luohua."

Meng Yuan's face darkened instantly when he heard the words. Yin Zhan, you were so damn wicked! To actually give Ling'er such an underhanded poison.

The look in his eyes at Yan Mo also turned cold. "This king asked you to protect the princess along the way, is this how you protect?"

When Yan Mo heard this, he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty. "My subordinates are negligent, please punish me."

Zhao Ling heard the conversation between the two in Meng Yuan's arms, and pulled his sleeve, "Yan Mo did a good job. This time it was an accident, don't blame him."

Yan Mo, who bowed his head to accept the punishment, was moved to tears. The princess was indeed a good person! He decided that he would go through fire and water for the princess in the future, and he would not hesitate.

Meng Yuan snorted coldly. "Looking at the princess's face, I will send it lightly. After returning to the mansion, I will go to Feiyunqi to receive my punishment."

"Yan Mo thank the king." Yan Mo replied. For this punishment, he was willing.

The princess was poisoned this time, and in the final analysis, it was due to his dereliction of duty. If he had arranged it more carefully, she would not have encountered this accident. The princess must be safe and sound. Yan Mo secretly begged God to bless him. If the princess had three strengths and two weaknesses, he was really to blame for her death.

"You continue to stay here to look out and respond, this king will take the princess back first." Seeing that Zhao Ling's face was flushed and her body was hot, it seemed unbearable. Meng Yuan was also in a hurry, and quickly ordered Yan Mo before hugging Zhao Ling and flew away.

Not far away, he was stopped by Yin Zhan who heard the sound, followed by the four protectors of Wuji sect.

This was the first time Zhao Ling had seen the Great Protector Wuchen. Wuchen looked to be in his forties, with a long beard and bright eyes, and at first glance he knew that he was a person with deep inner strength.

"It's rare for King Xuan to visit, so are you in a hurry to leave so soon?" Yin Zhan stood in the wind with red clothes and black hair. He saw Zhao Ling in Meng Yuan's arms, and his long and narrow phoenix eyes were full of anger.

It seemed that he really underestimated the ability of this woman. It was obvious that she was already unconscious, and she could still take the opportunity to escape, and she easily killed the guard.

Meng Yuan was still dressed in black, the expression on his face was dim in the night, but the words he spat out were cold.

"Hand over the antidote."

Seeing the urgency and worry evident in his eyes, Yin Zhan's expression changed, and he shouted indignantly, "What's so good about this woman to make you so nervous. Are you worthy of Yan'er for doing this?"

Who was Yan'er? When Zhao Ling heard the name in confusion, her heart turned slightly, but her mind was a little short-circuited at this moment. So she decided to give up thinking and shrank in Meng Yuan's arms with peace of mind.

When Meng Yuan heard the word "Yan'er", a strange look flashed on his face. Seeing Zhao Ling's body shrinking into his arms, he thought she was suffering from the poison, he was very anxious, and his eyes looked at Yin Zhan with a bit more murderous intent.

"Hand over the antidote, this king can let you live two more days."

Yin Zhan laughed loudly. "Hahaha, Meng Yuan, in fact, the antidote you want is far in the sky, right in front of you."

"What do you mean?" Meng Yuan frowned, he always hated people who tricked with the mysteries.

Yin Zhan smiled bitterly. "The antidote is... this lord. Only this lord can defuse the poison of this blue flower. And this is the way to detoxify..." He deliberately paused, seeing Meng Yuan's face getting more and more ugly, he continued proudly: " It is after this lord merged with her that the poison in her body would extradited into the body of this lord."

When Zhao Ling heard Yin Zhan's words, she couldn't help but scolded, "Shameless!" She really felt disgusted.

Meng Yuan clenched Zhao Ling's hand tightly, his eyes filled with overwhelming violence. His thin lips parted lightly, and his words contained ice aura. "Yin Zhan, you are courting death."

"Hmph, as soon as I die, your woman will be buried with me. It's not bad to think about it." Yin Zhan ignored Meng Yuan's killing intent and seemed intent on angering him.. "Or you can try to detoxify her yourself, but then your woman is likely to be a widow."
