"Nai’er, I’m back!" Suo Lun said with a trembling voice.

However, Yan Nai’er on the bed gave no response.

She lay there quietly, motionless, her eyes tightly closed, unconscious.

Suo Lun rushed forward and saw that her face had become noticeably thinner, her chin more pointed, and her eyes slightly sunken in.

Even her originally lustrous black hair had lost its shine, and her lips were cracked and bleeding.

Suo Lun couldn’t imagine what kind of life this peerless beauty had been living over the past month.

Moreover, there seemed to be a layer of terrifying energy aura shrouding her forehead.

He reached out to touch her carotid artery on her neck, checked her breathing, and put his ear down to listen to her heartbeat.

Her breathing was nearly inaudible, and her heartbeat extremely weak, as if it could stop at any moment, her life force was incredibly faint.

"Nai’er has been poisoned, a mysterious and potent poison," Tu An said.

Suo Lun’s heart twisted with pain, and tears welled up as he asked, "Mr. Tu, what on earth happened?"

Tu An’s eyes were red with distress as he said, "One month ago, Nai’er led us into the desert to fight a guerrilla war. She was a natural-born genius on the battlefield, practically invincible. She uprooted all the strongholds in the desert, wiped out all the caravans, and nearly single-handedly cut off Tianye City’s trade routes."

Suo Lun was surprised. His original plan for Yan Nai’er was guerrilla warfare, selectively attacking forces like Ji Gang to collapse the Anti-Yan Alliance. He hadn’t expected that Yan Nai’er would be even more ruthless and decisive, cutting off Tianye City’s lifeline and forcing everyone to submit.

Tu An continued, "Ji Gang and others were terrified and quickly organized tens of thousands of troops, entering the desert in vast numbers, trying to annihilate us. However, we appeared and disappeared unpredictably, avoiding direct confrontation; we led Ji Gang’s Allied Army on a wild chase across thousands of miles, exhausting them. Not only that, we struck from all sides, picking off every lagging member of the Allied Army one by one. We were all Cavalry while they had Infantry and Cavalry, so their movements were relatively slow. They not only failed to catch us, but we also broke them apart and inflicted countless casualties. During that time, although we only had a little over a thousand troops, we were overpowering them, you couldn’t imagine how high our morale was, and the fanaticism and faith we had in Nai’er."

Yan Nai’er was outstanding, even more so than Suo Lun had imagined.

"Everything was moving in the best possible direction," Tu An said. "Even the Tianye City Allied Forces were about to collapse, and many of Tianye City’s bigshots had secretly sent messages wanting to stop fighting and re-establish alliances. Ji Gang’s command of the Anti-Yan Alliance was on the verge of falling apart, and our victory seemed within grasp."

"And then what?" asked Suo Lun.

Tu An said, "Some powers from the Rage Wave Kingdom made their move; they provided a vast amount of resources and military support. They also suppressed those Tianye City forces that wanted to withdraw from the Allied Army and compromise with us, preventing the breakup of the Tianye Allied Forces. Not only that, Heibing Mansion sent over a dozen waves of assassins, and in the last wave, there were as many as five Dragon Samurai."

What Suo Lun heard in Tianye City was that Yan Nai’er had been critically injured in an assassination attempt, her life hanging by a thread.

Tu An took a deep breath and said, "Five Dragon Samurai, all sent to assassinate Yan Nai’er, and they were all killed."

Suo Lun was shocked and asked, "Could Nai’er kill five Dragon Samurai alone?"

Tu An explained, "She alone fought three Dragon Samurai, while the other two were besieged by several of us. In the end, four Dragon Samurai fell by her sword, and another was killed by our random sword strikes."

Suo Lun was amazed; he knew Yan Nai’er was strong, but not that she was so formidable. Fighting three Dragon Samurai alone, and killing them all. Was there really such a large gap between Dragon Samurai and Dragon Samurai?

She had devoured the energy of the Dragon Seal Stele, and his own energy from the Dragonflame Ruins far surpassed that of the Dragon Seal Stele. If she had devoured his Dragonflame, her power would have increased even more.

At that moment, Suo Lun’s heart ached again, feeling his own consumption of the Dragonflame Ruins energy was a huge waste. He probably hadn’t absorbed even one ten-thousandth, one millionth of its energy, all of which had been used to boil the sea of blood, clearing the hundred-mile expanse of the millennia-old blood sea.

Then Suo Lun’s heart skipped a beat—did he care so much for Yan Nai’er, love her so deeply? He wished he could give her all the Dragonflame energy?

Suo Lun asked, "If all the assassins were killed, then... then why was Nai’er still injured?"

Tu An’s eyes suddenly reddened, his voice hoarse, "After we killed the five Dragon Samurai assassins, we were all exhausted, and Nai’er had used up all of her Dragon power. It was at that moment that a viper hidden among us bared its fangs, firing countless poison needles into her back. He was our most trusted old brother, none of us were on guard. Who would have thought that he... he turned out to be a spy from Heibing Mansion hidden among us."

"Who?" Suo Lun asked, trembling.

"Yuan Jie, Archer Camp Leader Yuan Jie," Tu An said. "It’s hard to see how deeply he was hidden, more than a decade, a full ten years, and he watched Nai’er grow up. Who would have thought that he belonged to Heibing Mansion."

Suo Lun’s eyes widened in disbelief.
