Dong Huiying sought out the Steward, claiming that Wang San was suffering from gastrointestinal discomfort, so she allowed herself to replace Wang San. The Steward doubted her abilities, but after she wielded swords in demonstration, his expression softened, and he gave his consent, also muttering a few words about the uselessness of Wang San.
Master Chen of the Fierce Tiger Sect had prepared food and drinks, and Nu Woer arrived late. After exchanging pleasantries, Nu Woer grew impatient and quickly said, "Where are the Blood-replenishing Flower and the Flame Grass I asked for?" Master Chen’s eyes flickered, "Leader Nu Woer, rest assured, those two herbs have been securely arranged by Chen, and there is no possibility of them being misplaced."
Nu Woer’s face showed dissatisfaction, "You should know why I am here."
"Chen is well aware and wouldn’t dare to offend the leader. But since these two herbs are so important and many are after them, I hid them somewhere outside the Golden Triangle to prevent them from being stolen."
Only then did Nu Woer’s expression soften, "You are indeed thoughtful."
But Nu Woer was also getting restless. She had been delayed in the Golden Triangle for quite some time, and her life depended on those two herbs, so she anxiously signaled to Master Chen to stop talking and lead the way.
Master Chen, Chen Ahhu, made a "please" gesture, and Nu Woer naturally walked outside, not knowing that the murderous look in Master Chen’s eyes was trailing behind her.
Ahmei, just you wait!
Your brother will not let her get away with it!
Master Chen clenched his fist tightly.
Blending in with the group, Dong Huiying, with her small stature, was easily overwhelmed by the crowd. When the party arrived outside the Golden Triangle, she glanced at Master Chen and Nu Woer on horseback ahead of her, then looked around and noticed some marks.
These signs were left by Zhan Hanyun and Tie Yi, among others.
The fact that Master Chen took Nu Woer away from the Golden Triangle was something that couldn’t be concealed, and naturally, Zhan Hanyun and the others took action.
Master Chen dismounted and pointed to the boat at the ferry, "Those two herbs are sealed in a jar, we need to go retrieve them from the river."
Nu Woer frowned, feeling something was amiss. She looked around, her mind slightly uneasy. However, after giving it some thought, she considered that this Chen was just a minion, would he really dare to turn against her?
Telling herself she was being overly suspicious, she instructed Master Chen, "You retrieve it; I’ll wait on the shore."
Master Chen responded, "To avoid further complications, my recommendation is that the leader joins Chen on the boat, so that once we retrieve the jar, you may quickly consume the two herbs."
"Could it be that someone has the audacity to try and rob the leader of her medicine?"
Master Chen put on an expression that suggested, "I am only looking out for your best interest."
Nu Woer frowned again.
Just then, she felt dizzy once more. Master Chen hurriedly supported Nu Woer.
When the dizziness subsided, Nu Woer found herself sitting on the boat, which had already left the ferry and was heading out onto the river.
On board were not only her and Master Chen but also two of her confidants. Around them were a few other boats, some carrying her people, some carrying Master Chen’s.
And Master Chen’s men were diving into the water, searching for something.
Nu Woer suddenly felt an intense irritation.
whoosh, an arrow flew, slicing through the air!!
