Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 208 Jade Pendant

Actually, Su Yue didn't intend to get involved in this matter at first; she just wanted to watch the show.

But now the situation has suddenly changed, and seeing that these assassins have turned their attention to her, Su Yue knows that it's their turn to step in.

Moreover, she also wanted to take this opportunity to test the true strength of the so-called experts in this country.

Thinking of this, Su Yue's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile, and she muttered to herself, "Fine, let Dali practice on these people first."

In the blink of an eye, before the black-clad assassins could launch their attack, Su Yue shouted loudly towards another large tree nearby, "Dali, attack! Be careful not to hurt yourself."

As soon as she finished speaking, a cheerful reply rang out: "Okay!"

Immediately afterwards, a tall and muscular man leaped down from the tree and landed steadily in the encirclement formed by the assassins in black.

Dali showed no fear after landing; she gripped her longsword tightly, looking quite imposing.

Facing a large group of people dressed in black, Dali did not back down at all, but instead took the initiative to step forward.

She swung her sword left and right, the wind whistling wherever it passed, and instantly two or three black-clad assassins screamed and flew backward, crashing heavily to the ground, unable to move again.

Dali's amazing skills not only terrified the surrounding assassins, but even Su Yue couldn't help but nod in admiration.

Judging from the current situation, even if the remaining assassins swarm in, Dali's strength is more than enough to deal with them.

After observing the tree for a while longer, Su Yue felt relieved.

With Dali's strength, as long as those people fight her openly and fairly, instead of resorting to underhanded tactics, they are no match for her.

Then, Su Yue's gaze turned to Gu Yuan, who was hiding behind a tree.

At this moment, Gu Yuan was in extremely bad condition, breathing rapidly and weakly, taking in more air than exhaling.

"This shouldn't be happening!" Su Yue thought. Although his injuries were indeed serious, they were not life-threatening.

How is this going?

While Dali was engaged in a fierce battle with the man in black, Su Yue did not hesitate to leap down from the tree and land next to Gu Yuan.

Upon closer inspection, she finally discovered the clue: one of the arrows shot at Gu Yuan was coated with a deadly poison.

For a moment, Su Yue couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions, unsure whether to call him lucky or unlucky.

If we're talking about luck, of all the arrows raining down, only this one, carrying a deadly poison, managed to hit its target.

But if you call it bad luck, if that arrow had been a little off course, perhaps he wouldn't have been poisoned to this extent.

And judging from the extent of the injury, he'll probably have scars on his face too.

Thinking of this, Su Yue couldn't help but sigh: "Tsk tsk tsk~ This face was originally quite handsome, it's such a pity. After this ordeal, it will probably leave unsightly scars in the future."

Just then, Su Yue vaguely heard a faint sound coming from Gu Yuan's mouth.

So she quickly put her ear close to Gu Yuan's lips, trying to hear what he was saying.

However, because her voice was too faint, Su Yue could only ask softly, "What did you say? Speak louder, I can't hear you."

Then, Su Yue moved a little closer and finally heard Gu Yuan's words clearly.

All I could hear him say was, haltingly, "Please...please, save me..."

Su Yue was slightly taken aback, then replied in a drawn-out voice, "Oh~~ I see. You mean you want me to save you?"

Gu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his once bright eyes now appearing dull and lifeless.

He nodded weakly, as if even this small action had taken a great deal of effort.

"But why should I save you? What good would it do me to save you?" Su Yue said, arms crossed, looking unwilling.

She didn't want to become an unnecessary burden.

Gu Yuan gritted his teeth, used the last bit of strength in his body, and slowly reached into his clothes with trembling hands to grope around.

A moment later, he took out a jade pendant, which shimmered faintly in the darkness.

However, just as the jade pendant was exposed to the air, Gu Yuan could no longer support his body, and his vision went black as he fainted.

"Oh dear! This jade pendant looks so ordinary, what's it even used for? Don't faint so quickly! Honestly, at least finish what you were saying before you faint!" Su Yue grumbled somewhat resentfully, while carefully examining the jade pendant in her hand, trying to discern some clues from it.

At this moment, Su Yue really wanted to curse. "I'll save your life for the sake of this jade pendant."

If this person doesn't receive treatment soon, he'll likely die from the poisoning.

Thinking of this, she quickly took out a small bottle of spiritual spring water that she had prepared in advance from her small handbag and poured it into Gu Yuan's mouth, hoping to save his life temporarily.

Then, she turned to look at Dali, who was still fiercely fighting with the last two assassins in black.

"Dali, have mercy! Leave one alive!" Su Yue shouted.

Upon hearing the sound, Dali moved swiftly, her figure flashing as she rushed towards one of the weaker black-clad assassins.

With a swift movement, the assassin was killed instantly.

She then set her sights on the remaining assassin.

With a sudden, powerful swing of his broadsword, a flash of cold light appeared, and the assassin, unable to dodge in time, had his right arm severed. Blood splattered everywhere, and the assassin rolled on the ground in excruciating pain, letting out a series of shrill screams.

Upon seeing this, Su Yue rushed over and kicked the black-clad assassin who was struggling in pain.

"Speak! Where is the antidote?" Su Yue's eyes widened in anger as she demanded sharply.

The black-clad assassin, who was writhing on the ground in pain, was startled upon hearing the words "antidote."

Suddenly, as if she had made up her mind, she bit down hard on the poison she was holding in her mouth without hesitation.

Su Yue's eyes widened in astonishment.

She always thought that the plot of hiding poison in teeth was just a fabricated scene in TV dramas to increase the drama.

But I never expected that such a thing would actually exist in reality.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, already poisoned, Su Yue shook her head helplessly. There was no other way at the moment.

They could only search through the corpses one by one with Dali.

"This one isn't here...this one isn't here either...oh dear, this one still isn't here!" Su Yue complained as she rummaged through the clothes on the assassins' bodies. She even went after their shoes, practically stripping the corpses naked.

Even so, she still couldn't find it, and didn't know what the antidote looked like.
