Chapter 470: First Battle with the Imperial Master
Chapter 470: First Battle with the Imperial Master
The other party obviously did not expect Bai Qingyun to do this. When he smelled the scent of the poison pill, he held his breath and concentrated instantly, but he still inevitably inhaled some poison gas.
He realized something was wrong and quickly took out the teleportation talisman and escaped.
Bai Qingyun is naturally unable to pursue at his current level, and the timing is not right today. The most important thing right now is to reunite with Qin Ning first.
In a house in the capital.
Bai Qingyun looked at the wound that Su Niangzi had cleaned for Qin Ning and saw that there was no sign of bleeding: "Your wound heals very quickly, but if there is a big battle, the wound will definitely tear."
Qin Ning gritted her teeth. Although Bai Qingyun's potion was very gentle, the wound would still be painful if it was slightly rubbed. "Even so, I will avenge my blood feud with my own hands."
Seeing this, Bai Qingyun no longer thought about stopping the other party.
She thought of the face of the Imperial Master she saw today, and asked Qin Ning curiously, "Your Qin family was the imperial family in the past, and there were many people. Could it be that every family was slaughtered without exception?"
"We had already left the capital that night. If we hadn't turned back halfway, we wouldn't have seen it with our own eyes." Madam Su knew that Bai Qingyun wouldn't ask for no reason, and recalled: "I remember that people were being chased in the streets and alleys, and many royal palaces and county princes' palaces were ablaze..."
"But after the establishment of the Da Zhao Dynasty, no decree was issued to massacre the Qin family. It is not surprising that some of them were able to escape."
Qin Ning added: "But even if there are survivors, they have no military power and no money. Even if they can survive, it will be difficult. If I don't have the protection of my master, and my father and mother to plan for me, I am just a princess of a fallen country living in the gutter."
“Don’t underestimate yourself!” Madam Su increased the strength in her hands, causing the sadness that Qin Ning had originally recalled to be swallowed up by a cry of pain.
Bai Qingyun looked at him with a smile and continued to ask: "Then... do you know the Imperial Master?"
Madam Su froze in her tracks, and Qin Ning's painful inhalation also stopped abruptly.
The two looked at each other, and finally Qin Ning sighed.
"He... is a member of the Qin family, but he was expelled from the family for being a heretic. Master saw that he had a hard time, so he taught him some martial arts."
"I just don't know what opportunity he got, but he started practicing and his cultivation level was not low. I also heard from Qin Bo later that he took the initiative to join the noble family when the city was broken."
Bai Qingyun frowned: "Does your enemy include him?"
In fact, she wanted to ask directly whether he was involved in the massacre of the palace.
If one's own family members participated in the massacre of one's own family, it would be a bit cruel to ask like this, so she had to change the way she asked.
But everyone present was smart and naturally understood the other party's implied meaning.
Qin Ning's eyes were slightly empty, and the memories of the past had obviously swept through her mind. She paused for a moment, and then she opened her lips: "Yes..."
"The Qin family is a royal family after all. The family has been passed down for hundreds of years. There was once a Yellow Emperor who pursued the art of immortality and invited a master to the palace to guide his practice."
"Although his grandson later usurped the throne, the cultivation techniques were inherited by successive emperors. In the end, they had achieved some success and eventually became the Qin family's secret method. Although it does not have the effect of immortality, it can still prolong life."
"It's just that the method is insidious. I don't know the details. My father only told me about it when I was 15 years old."
She raised her eyebrows again and looked at Madam Su: "Master must know some details, that's why he agreed to bring me up the mountain to educate me."
Madam Su looked at the two people looking at her curiously and sighed softly: "You guessed right. The Qin family's secret method requires a girl of Qin family blood to refine. Master didn't tell you before because he knew that according to your temper, you would definitely rush into the palace with a sword in hand."
"I know." Qin Ning murmured, with some sadness in her tone.
If the past was just speculation, then now knowing the truth is so cruel, the little expectations in her heart and the careful planning of her master were ruthlessly shattered at this moment, leaving only sadness.
Bai Qingyun poured the newly refined healing medicine onto a handkerchief and pressed it against Qin Ning's wound, causing the other party to wail, "You!"
Qin Ning glared at her with angry eyes.
Bai Qingyun waved his hand, signaling Su Niangzi not to panic: "This medicine will take effect quickly, but you will inevitably suffer some pain. You will have to take revenge with your own hands soon, and you don't want to be affected by the injury!"
This was what she had Huo Huo instruct the robots to make in the space the moment she learned of the identity of the National Master. She definitely didn't have time to refine the elixir, and the efficacy of the elixir was not something that Qin Ning's mortal body could easily withstand.
But Qin Ning is a member of the Qin family. Even if she did not practice like the national teacher, her parents must have given her longevity drugs, and the other party's master was also a cultivator. Although Qin Ning is a mortal, she is not completely mortal.
It is still bearable to brew some healing medicine with rich spiritual energy.
Today was her first time fighting against the Imperial Master, and she decided to help Qin Ning recover as quickly as possible, even though she would have to suffer in the process.
She looked at the wound on Qin Ning's body, and finally expressed her inner concerns: "The cultivation level of that national teacher is higher than mine!"
Qin Ning and Madam Su looked at each other and saw some surprise and even some panic in each other's eyes.
Bai Qingyun's cultivation is an open secret.
They were also brought up by cultivators, so it was not difficult for them to make judgments based on what they saw and heard, and Bai Qingyun did not deliberately hide it.
But none of them expected that she would meet an opponent at her level of cultivation.
Even though Qin Ning was seriously injured before, they never worried that the trip would fail, because since the other party chose to go through this journey, people who practice martial arts will definitely be crushed.
But now another cultivator has appeared, and his cultivation level is higher than hers. How can these two not panic?
Bai Qingyun was not surprised by the performance of the two, because when she was fighting with the national teacher, she was even more panicked.
"I need to retreat for a while. Don't let anyone approach my room until I come up with a solution." Bai Qingyun looked at Madam Su. Qin Ning was still recovering from his injuries, so she was the only one who could do anything.
Madam Su nodded, "Don't worry, the servants in this house are all arranged by His Highness, and Qin Huai has also sent people to guard the surroundings. If someone approaches, we will be prepared."
As she spoke, she took Bai Qingyun to the side room in the yard, not far from Qin Ning's room.
Now that one of them was recuperating and the other was in seclusion, she was the only one who could be in charge, so she simply told the maid to set up the tea set in the yard and make tea.
And at the moment when Madam Su closed the door, Bai Qingyun didn't even take a second look at the layout of the room, and disappeared in this space the next second.
But at the same time, in a house in the capital, the imperial teacher who was regulating his breathing suddenly opened his eyes.
