At the moment when Gu Jiao was about to sever Huangfu Zheng's neck with a strike, on the other side, a soldier grabbed Physician Tong and held a dagger to Physician Tong's neck.

"Stop! Or I'll kill him!"

Gu Jiao turned around and looked at him coldly. The soldier trembled at Gu Jiao's murderous gaze. Before the soldier could utter the next threatening words, Gu Jiao's red-tasseled spear flew out, piercing through the soldier's head!

Physician Tong felt a burst of scorching heat splatter across his face. He closed his eyes and stiffened, not daring to think whether it was blood or brain matter!

Huangfu Zheng was utterly stunned by the scene before him.

He knew that someone who could kill Tian Lang was no ordinary individual, but he hadn't anticipated this person to be so resolute and ruthless!

When threatened, ‘he’ didn't hesitate for even a moment. In that instant, Huangfu Zheng's blood surged with excitement, dread, and even a kind of reverence for the young expert before him.

Huangfu Zheng stared at Gu Jiao in disbelief.

Gu Jiao stepped on his chest, instantly fracturing his ribs. He then coughed up blood!

He trembled in pain.

Gu Jiao looked down at him from a superior position, her eyes devoid of any emotion apart from indifference.

It wasn’t frightening to kill. What was frightening was to do it so calmly.

Huangfu Zheng felt a shiver from the depths of his soul.

With just a bit more force, Gu Jiao could crush his ribs into his lungs.

At such a critical moment between life and death, Huangfu Zheng unexpectedly cast a lingering look towards Princess Ning'an, unwilling to give up.

But Princess Ning'an turned her face away.

"Ning'an." He held back the pain and opened his mouth.

Princess Ning'an's throat moved slightly. Whether she heard him or not, she didn't turn to look at him.

Suddenly, Huangfu Zheng smiled, "My uncle has no heir. He once said that if he ascended to the throne, he would appoint me as the Crown Prince. At that time, I thought, if I became the Crown Prince, you would be my future Empress."

"Ning'an, what's wrong with being Empress? Why don't you want it?"

"They killed your imperial concubine mother. They are your enemies. You'd rather return to them than be my Empress?"

"Ning'an."

"Are you finished?" Gu Jiao said lightly.

Huangfu Zheng coughed up a mouthful of blood, withdrew his gaze from Princess Ning'an, and looked mockingly at Gu Jiao. "Do you really think killing me means you can leave? Do you know how much effort I put into building this secret passage? I don't want you to leave, so none of you can leave!"

"Including the princess?" Gu Jiao asked.

Huangfu Zheng now recognized that she was a girl, but at this moment, his attention wasn't on Gu Jiao's voice. He replied, "Yes, including her."

Gu Jiao added, "You're dying and yet you won't let her leave. Is this your way of being good to her?"

Through gritted teeth, Huangfu Zheng said, "As long as you give me medicine, I won't die, and Ning'an won't lose her husband."

"Oh, so it's my fault now?" Gu Jiao said indifferently, tilting her head and looking at him. "You brought the plague upon yourselves."

With that sentence, Gu Jiao completely crushed Huangfu Zheng's confidence.

In the end, harming others ultimately harmed oneself.

Huangfu Zheng was severely injured. He was so furious and regretful to the core, once again coughing up blood.

"Let him perish on his own!" Princess Ning'an suddenly turned around, her voice trembling uncontrollably. "Anyway, he's infected and won't survive."

Huangfu Zheng's eyes brightened upon hearing Princess Ning'an pleading for him!

But the next moment, he heard Princess Ning'an say, "Once we cross the bridge, we'll cut it down."

This was the only secret passage, and if this bridge was also cut down, there would really be no way out.

Huangfu Zheng's expression froze on his face, "...Ning'an, why are you forcing me like this?"

"Young Miss Gu, let's go!" Princess Ning'an walked out of the cave without looking back.

Gu Jiao walked over and pulled out her red-tasseled spear.

Huangfu Zheng watched the resolute departing figure of Princess Ning'an and shouted, "I said you can't leave! Only I know the way out through this secret passage! If you don't believe me, try it!"

Princess Ning'an's foot was already on the suspension bridge.

She paused for a moment at the words but continued walking without paying it any real attention.

Then, something incredible happened.

In the moment the suspension bridge swayed, the cliff on the opposite side suddenly trembled, as if something was splitting it open, and immediately, a stone door was revealed.

With a deafening noise, the stone door opened, revealing a death warrior exuding a menacing aura.

The figure of this person was as burly and imposing as Tian Lang, with an aura nearly indistinguishable from Tian Lang's.

Gu Jiao's eyes turned cold.

This is...

Huangfu Zheng coldly chuckled, "Yes, it's Tian Lang, the second Tian Lang. Did you think I only had one Tian Lang in my control? Although he's not as powerful as the former Tian Lang, he's still formidable enough to deal with you!"

Gu Jiao was now severely drained of energy, to the point that she already found it difficult to breathe.

Even managing to deal with Huangfu Zheng was a struggle. Now, facing another Tian Lang meant there was truly no chance of winning.

Huangfu Zheng arrogantly demanded, "Hand over the medicine, and I'll leave you with a complete corpse."

"Do not harm her!" Princess Ning'an hurried towards Gu Jiao.

"Attack!" Huangfu Zheng commanded the death warrior.

The death warrior's speed was almost inconceivable. In an instant, he leaped across the suspension bridge, bypassing Princess Ning'an and arriving behind Gu Jiao.

He grabbed Gu Jiao's neck, intending to lift her high, but before he could exert force, another robust figure swiftly crossed the bridge.

A sharp sword aura struck the death warrior's back!

The death warrior couldn't evade in time and took the hit, causing his armor to crack.

Almost simultaneously, Gu Jiao's red-tasseled spear blocked against his shoulders horizontally. She then kicked his chest, leveraging the force to break free from his grip!

Although the kick didn't injure the death warrior, enduring two consecutive strikes left him visibly infuriated.

As he reached to grab Gu Jiao again, Gu Changqing swiftly moved in front of her, thrusting a sword at the death warrior's wrist.

The armor on the death warrior's wrist also cracked.

Gu Changqing embraced Gu Jiao's waist, stepped back more than ten paces, and gently placed his sister at the entrance of the cave.

His hand with the sword emanated a murderous intent, yet his gaze towards Gu Jiao was gentle and doting, "Can you still walk? Cross the bridge first and wait for me on the other side."

Gu Jiao nodded.

The soldiers inside the cave were no longer a threat. They had already been scared out of their wits by Gu Jiao's fatal shot to the head earlier, so hardly anyone dared to stop her.

Gu Jiao, Princess Ning'an, and the rest stepped onto the suspension bridge.

"Stop them!" Huangfu Zheng commanded sharply.

Gu Changqing, holding his long sword, blocked the cave entrance, his gaze icy as he looked at the approaching death warrior. He said to Gu Jiao, "Just cross the bridge, don't look back."

"Alright."

Gu Jiao didn't look back.

She took the lead onto the bridge.

Princess Ning'an and Lian'er followed closely.

Physician Tong was in the rear.

But he was truly afraid of heights!

This time, beneath his feet wasn't some old well, but a bottomless abyss!

Moreover, the suspension bridge swayed!

Oh heavens!

He was in agony!

"They're coming!" Gu Jiao said.

"Ahhhh!" Physician Tong waved his arms and dashed across with a whoosh! He was the first to reach the opposite cliff!

Sounds of fighting continued behind them, and chilling wind gusted from the cave towards the direction of the suspension bridge. Gu Jiao caught a strong scent of blood but couldn't discern whether it was from the death warrior or Gu Changqing.

She just continued forward obediently.

Without looking back.

The whole group crossed the suspension bridge and entered the cave on the other side of the cliff.
