As they went along, the expression on everyone’s faces, apart from Jiang Xiaobai’s, looked as if they had lost a father and caught the killer.
Savage, desperate, and filled with infinite rage.
If something happened to Ao Yan, everything would be over for Dragon Valley.
Ao Cheng, walking next to Jiang Xiaobai, clenched his fist so hard that he was tempted several times to kill him on the spot.
Unfortunately, he was stopped by his better judgment.
Ao Cheng, who was usually unreliable, became the most steadfast whenever Ao Yan was involved.
“Jiang Xiaobai, I didn’t realize you would ever be such an ungrateful wretch!” Ao Cheng muttered furiously.
Jiang Xiaobai appeared nonchalant, shrugged, and replied: “Ao Cheng, you can never truly know a person. You won’t be so rash in the future.”
“Bullcrap, Jiang Xiaobai, you better behave yourself or I am really going to kill you.” Ao Cheng sneered, his body trembling with anger.
Jiang Xiaobai ignored him and casually followed the group towards Ao Yan’s house.
Skilled warriors from Dragon Valley were all around us, both in sight and hidden among the shadows.
Despite being aware of the circumstances, everyone was still in shock when they saw it.
The gathering was terrifying!
Almost all the top warriors of Dragon Valley were gathered here!
All of them were merely there to protect Ao Yan.
This showed how much Dragon Valley valued Ao Yan, or to be more precise, her natural talent and her ability of bloodline power.
As soon as the group reached the edge of the guard area, a group of powerful warriors emerged.
“Ao Zhantian, what do you mean by this?” The elder leading the group was a close associate of Ao Yuanwu.
Seeing Ao Zhantian in this state, he assumed that he was there to cause trouble.
“Hmph, I have something very important. This kid poisoned the Princess with the Nine Yin-Yang Pills!”
Ao Zhantian coldly said: “Clear the way immediately, if something happens to
Princess Ao Yan, Dragon Valley will perish!”
“What? Poison?” The Supreme Elder narrowed his brows.
The warriors around him changed their faces dramatically, clearly aware of the capabilities of Nine Yin -Yang Pills.
“You rogue! You’ve grown so daring as to poison the Princess with such a vicious weapon?” An angered warrior yelled towards Jiang Xiaobai.
Jiang Xiaobai simply ignored him.
Just a few hundred meters more and his escape plan would be perfectly executed.
There’s no room for any slip-ups at this time.
“Clear the way immediately! Only he knows how to concoct the antidote! We can’t waste time!” Ao Zhantian’s command echoed.
The many elders and warriors blocking the path promptly stepped aside to clear a path, their gaze fixed on Jiang Xiaobai as if wishing to kill him.
If looks could kill, Jiang Xiaobai estimated he would have been dead a thousand times over.
Feeling somewhat daunted, he wondered if he took the joke too far.
“Forget it! Any rooster or hen will do as long as it lays eggs!”
Before long, the group reached the entrance to Ao Yan’s yard.
Practically all the hidden guardians have learned about Jiang’s poisoning, mobilizing and following closely behind Jiang Xiaobai.
Fearing that Jiang Xiaobai would find an opportunity to escape.
At the entrance to the yard, Ao Wan was playing chess with Ao Zhenbei. Seeing so many people, they were both puzzled.
“What’s going on? Haven’t I said for you guys to guard outside?” Seeing this, Ao Wan scolded through gritted teeth.
“Clan leader, this is the situation…”
Ao Zhantian did not mention that he had kidnapped Jiang Xiaobai. Instead, he said he was accused of poisoning Ao Yan, prompting him to rush over hastily.
Upon hearing his words, Ao Wan and Ao Zhenbei were enraged. They were about to expose their auras, but considering that Ao Yan was still trying to breakthrough inside, they forcibly suppressed their anger.
“Jiang Xiaobai!”
Ao Wan gritted his teeth, “Just what evil intentions do you harbor, to dare to poison Yan’er with such a deadly toxin!”
From the moment he stood in front of the yard, Jiang Xiaobai’s worries were completely gone.
He finally let out a sigh of relief.
Everything turned out fine in the end!
“Answer me, why did you act against Yan’er, even if she…”
Just as Ao Wan was about to utter something, Jiang Xiaobai raised his hand to interrupt him, “Uncle Ao, there are no Nine Yin-Yang Pills.”
What?!
The entire crowd was stunned for a moment.
Ao Cheng was dumbfounded, the look in his eyes completely blank as he stared at Jiang Xiaobai. It was understandable considering his slow comprehension.
Ao Wan and Ao Zhenbei, two very influential people, were also completely lost.
The only person who seemed to understand what was going on was probably Ao Zhantian, who had always wanted Jiang Xiaobai dead. He immediately realized that this was Jiang Xiaobai’s trick!
“You scoundrel, you actually dare play me!”
Ao Zhantian was furious and was about to kill Jiang Xiaobai on the spot.
Now that he knew everything, there was no way he could let Jiang Xiaobai tell the truth, otherwise, he’d be the one in the hot seat!
Unfortunately, just as he was about to strike, Ao Zhenbei made his move.
Boom!
Ao Zhantian was knocked back, his eyes filled with rage and resentment.
“Let him explain what’s going on!” Ao Zhenbei looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a cold expression.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai started to smirk at Ao Zhantian, and mouthed the words—
‘Bald-headed old dog, what can you do to me?’
Then, Jiang Xiaobai recounted all of the events that had happened since the morning, without any exaggeration.
Upon hearing his words, everyone’s gaze shifted to Ao Zhantian, with a sense of disapproval.
“What is Ao Zhantian thinking about exactly?”
“It’s just Jiang Xiaobai, an ordinary man, but he also the royal consort. How could they act against him at such a critical time?”
“It would be easy to kill an ordinary man, why take such a risk now? This unnecessary shock!”
The warriors finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness it wasn’t true!
“Grandpa Ao, I’m sorry. I knew Ao Zhantian would act against me and Ao Cheng, so I used this as a last resort.”
Jiang Xiaobai looked remorseful and sincerely added, “Everything I said about the Nine Yin-Yang Pills was fabricated. This pill was lost long ago, how could I possibly know how to concoct it?”
“You!”
Ao Cheng pointed at Jiang Xiaobai, speechless for a while.
It was only now that he understood why Jiang Xiaobai had said those inexplicable things to him before. It turned out, he was hinting at him!
Upon thinking about this, Ao Cheng felt both excited and dizzy.
“Jiang Xiaobai, you really scared the hell out of me! Can’t you warn me in advance next time?”
Ao Cheng said unhappily, “No wait, there can’t be a next time. My heart can’t withstand being tormented like this! ”
At this point, how could he still bear any resentment towards Jiang Xiaobai?
