Chapter 226: Chapter 226: Has the Person Behind Appeared?

God knows how much she hated roller coasters—those things messed up her hair and ruined her image. This was sure as hell more thrilling than a roller coaster.

"Alright, you just wait."

Gu Youyou glared fiercely at Yue Rujing.

The pursuers were already upon them. Yue Rujing drew from his waist a belt. Oh no, not a belt, but a Soft Sword worn like a belt at the waist. While Gu Youyou was busy throwing up, the three had already become entangled in battle.

"You sure move fast, didn’t anyone tell you that I, Yue Rujing, am here?"

Yue Rujing laughed indifferently, his swordplay as casual and beautifully flawless as his demeanor. Under the moonlight, he resembled an immortal dancing to the moon.

On the contrary, the two men in black struck quickly and fiercely. The tip of their swords carried a chilling force that made the surrounding flora pale in comparison. Even the bright stars in the night sky seemed to hide behind the clouds.

After throwing up, Gu Youyou felt much better, but she still lacked the strength to do anything but lean against a tree trunk.

She barely opened her eyes to witness the real-life martial arts action unfolding not far away, feeling an indescribable emotion inside.

If she was destined to be transported to such a world, she wished for an early warning so she could have trained to become a master of poisonous medicine.

Wielding swords and staffs wasn’t her thing, but playing with throwing needles would be cool!

Life is full of dramas. Well, there was nothing she could do to help; best to just hide away!

"Yo, you’re quite resilient, aren’t you?" Yue Rujing mocked with a laugh. In the blink of an eye, his swordplay changed.

It was no longer as graceful as the wind but whipped up a whirlwind on the spot, kicking up sand and stones to create a huge vortex.

The two men in black could not maintain their footing within the vortex, their bodies involuntarily spinning with the swirling pebbles.

Gu Youyou watched from a distance, utterly dumbfounded!

One of the men in black, in a moment of desperation, yelled angrily, and drove his sword deep into the ground, gripping the hilt tightly to anchor his stance.

The other seemed weaker and, after struggling briefly, could no longer hold on. With a scream, he was swiftly tossed into the air and smashed heavily onto a pile of stones by the riverside.

The moonlight peeked out from the clouds once more, like a mischievous child stealing a glance.

The man in black clutching the sword hilt sneered, not feeling unsettled by his defeat.

"If I can’t beat you, do you think I can’t deal with her? Let’s see if your fists can stand up against our six hands."

Six hands?

Before the echo of his words faded, Gu Youyou felt a chill behind her as someone closed in on her at great speed.

Yue Rujing felt it too. He kicked away the man in black in front of him and sent his sword flying towards the spot behind Gu Youyou.

But he was too late to save her. The person behind Gu Youyou swiftly dodged to the side, holding a short sword to Gu Youyou’s throat.

"It’s time to return what you’ve hogged for so long. This night’s game ends here. Let’s go!"

The person grabbing Gu Youyou dragged her away, and the two disheveled men in black followed suit, leaving Yue Rujing glaring at them with a furious look as they retreated into the dense forest.

Gu Youyou’s hand in her sleeve gripped the surgical knife she had brought with her. She guessed these people wouldn’t kill her, otherwise, why would they have fed her that precious medicine for ten long years?

Her hand clutched the surgical knife, but her mind was uncertain.

Perhaps by following these people, she could find the one behind it all and understand why she was so deeply entwined in this obscure game. She might also learn what role she was meant to play in this intricate scheme.
