Chapter 227: Chapter 227 Stab Your Kidneys

But what kind of dangers could be lurking within?

And what about Jin Zijin? Would it be safer to follow him, or should she take a gamble on her own?

As they were threatening Gu Youyou, Yue Rujing could only reluctantly follow, not daring to get too close. Gu Youyou’s mind was in chaos, as she went over everything from the first day she arrived to the present.

Both she and Jin Ziyuan were raised by others, so-called ’medicinal slaves.’ She didn’t want to admit it, yet she had to: these people never saw her as a human being.

If she were taken back, the upside would be the chance to learn about the things she wanted to know. But... it had been a long time since she had drunk that medicine, and she finally managed to suppress the cold poison. She definitely didn’t want to continue drinking those concoctions.

If these three men really were underlings of the person behind this, then if she were taken away, most likely she would have to continue drinking it.

She didn’t want to become a monstrous creature, not quite human, not quite ghost. She ultimately decided she would do everything possible to stay, even though Jin Zijin and Yue Rujing might not be good people either, but at least they had never forced her to take the medicine.

Ha, not a single good person. Was she, Gu Youyou, someone to be manipulated by others?

"Yue Rujing!" Gu Youyou shouted loudly.

With a solemn face, Yue Rujing stopped in surprise, and the knife at her throat also halted.

"Cousin-in-law?"

Gu Youyou gave him a suggestive look, yet with a pitiful cry said, "I’d rather die than go with these men in black. Tell my husband, my biggest regret in this life is not bearing him a son or a daughter. Alas, the heavens envy a beautiful woman; all I hope for is to continue our marriage in the next life!"

Her clear, mournful voice in the night air moved people to tears. The three men in black were all shaken by Gu Youyou’s words of despair, and the one holding Gu Youyou was startled for a moment, feeling a strong force grab his sword-wielding wrist. Gu Youyou then thrust her head forward with all her might, aiming her outstretched neck right towards the blade!

He was terribly frightened; if such an important person died under his blade, he couldn’t imagine if he would be skinned or have his tendons extracted.

He quickly pushed Gu Youyou’s hand away and moved the short sword in his hand aside.

This woman was truly courting death, yet she could not die.

Gu Youyou let out a piercing cold laugh, and even her beautiful voice became incredibly eerie.

The dark eyes on the black cloth suddenly faltered, reacting a beat too slow.

But it was exactly this half-beat of hesitation that gave Gu Youyou an inexplicable burst of strength and courage. Clenching the scalpel in her hand, she stabbed towards the abdomen of the man in black.

"See if I don’t puncture your kidney!"

Gu Youyou had a thorough understanding of human anatomy; in modern times, one could live without a kidney, but in this medically backward ancient era, not even circumcision surgery was possible, let alone a nephrectomy. He was as good as dead.

The man in black seemed to have not anticipated that this seemingly frail woman intent on death would suddenly attack him, and he was stab squarely by her.

The scalpel may have looked small, but it was unexpectedly sharp. The small blade actually pierced through his specially-made clothes and into his flesh.

The man in black grunted but did not retreat. Instead, with a furious look, he grabbed Gu Youyou’s wrist that was holding the scalpel.

"I didn’t expect this... you’re quite courageous!" the man in black said through gritted teeth.

As Gu Youyou launched her surprise attack, Yue Rujing, who had been following, also moved swiftly like the wind.

The two men who had previously fought with him were not idle either and immediately stepped in front of him.
