Listening to Yun Yi’s words, Gu Zhiqi just slightly raised his eyebrows, didn’t speak, but turned his head to look meaningfully at those lying on the ground, wailing and likely unable to stand up.
Seeing this, Yun Yi turned a blind eye, cleared her throat, and took out a tissue to leisurely wipe her dagger.
Gu Zhiqi, looking at the dagger in her hand, also remembered the knife that she had pinned to a tree earlier.
He turned around and walked toward that knife.
Having wiped the dagger clean, Yun Yi saw Gu Zhiqi walking towards the knife, she then put away her dagger and also headed towards it.
Gu Zhiqi held the dagger and examined it for quite a while, then glanced sideways at Yun Yi and asked, "Do you still want this knife?"
"Can I still take it?" Yun Yi, looking at the dagger in Gu Zhiqi’s hands, hesitated to claim it.
But, it was forged from extremely rare materials and matched the set with her other daggers.
To just leave it would be somewhat heartbreaking.
"Yes," Gu Zhiqi nodded slightly, and then, looking sideways at Yun Yi, said, "However, you’ll have to wait until I’ve neutralized the poison on it."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yi immediately nodded, "Okay, then I’ll be troubling you."
Gu Zhiqi put away the dagger.
Yun Yi asked, "Do we still need to gather herbs?"
Gu Zhiqi shook his head, no more gathering.
"Then I’ll get in touch with the helicopter," said Yun Yi, reaching for her mobile phone to send a message.
"Did the helicopter go back to Sen City?" Gu Zhiqi casually asked.
"No, I had them land on a nearby flat area, I’ll ask where they stopped," said Yun Yi while looking down to compose her message.
Soon, a message came from the other side.
"They replied, they’re not far away, should be able to get here quickly," Yun Yi said while sending the location from her end.
After sending the coordinates, Yun Yi looked around and gestured toward a certain direction; she turned to Gu Zhiqi and suggested, "Let’s go over there; it’s more open."
Gu Zhiqi nodded and together with Yun Yi, headed toward the open area.
Once the two left, the downed disciples of the Medical Alliance started to help each other up and rise.
A disciple holding a dagger and clutching his chest walked up to a woman in white who had just taken the antidote and was sitting in meditation, breathing regulation. Looking at the woman hesitantly, he spoke up, "Uncle Master Mo, they’ve left; do we pursue them?"
Though the woman was regulating her breathing with her eyes closed, she could hear the surrounding sounds. Upon hearing the disciple’s voice, her face contorted, "Chase? Can you defeat them if you do?"
Hearing this, the disciple fell silent.
Not too far away, Yun Yi suddenly remembered something and turned to ask Gu Zhiqi, "The movement technique you just used was the Illusive Shadow Leviathan, right?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded and softly affirmed.
"Who did you learn it from?" Yun Yi asked with slight curiosity.
Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow, looking back at Yun Yi and countered, "And your movement technique, who did you learn it from?"
"I remember you were..." Yun Yi began but abruptly paused, looking at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "You asked Su Yunling about this, didn’t you?"
Gu Zhiqi looked at Yun Yi, not speaking, which was as good as confirming it.
"Just as he said, the Leviathan Referral is a family heritage of the Yun family, left behind by an ancestor named Yun Qian five hundred years ago," Yun Yi continued, also with a hint of regret in her voice, "Although Leviathan Referral is our family heritage, the talent required to cultivate it is too high. Over the past five hundred years, within the Yun family, only Su Yunling and I have been able to cultivate it."
