Chapter 1178: Chapter 1180: Share a few tender moments with her_1

Bai Ruozhu was fretting on one side when she suddenly felt restless. The next second, a figure appeared out of nowhere and hurled a hidden weapon at her.

She didn’t get a clear look at what the hidden weapon was; she just instinctively rolled on the ground. Her martial arts skills were half-baked, to begin with, not being very formidable, but she had some talent in lightness and agility. In critical moments, she always rolled on the ground. Although it might have looked lowly, it saved her life, which was all that mattered.

Several silver needles were nailed into the ground where she had just been standing. Because the silver needles were extremely fine, they were still trembling as they stuck to the ground.

"Who’s there!" Jianqi shouted, lifting his Black Gold Sword and rushing over. His reactions were quick too, and along with a group of Shadow Guards, they all surrounded the area.

Bai Ruozhu dodged again and finally saw clearly that the weapon thrown at her was acupuncture silver needles!

The silver needles, meant for healing, had been used for killing; the person must definitely be the Ghost Doctor!

"Ghost Doctor, I have no grievances with you, why have you repeatedly attempted to harm me?" Bai Ruozhu cautiously moved near a trap.

The Ghost Doctor, entangled by Jianqi and others, was gnashing his teeth with anger. He really had misjudged; he hadn’t expected this damn girl to have so many experts by her side, otherwise, he would have succeeded by now!

"I kill whoever I want. You’ve gotten in my way, and there’s only one way out for you, death. Otherwise, you’d better step down yourself and don’t interfere with the kid marrying my daughter," the Ghost Doctor said as he threw several more silver needles at Bai Ruozhu. Fortunately, Bai Ruozhu was far enough away, she quickly took cover behind a large tree, avoiding the Ghost Doctor’s sneak attack.

Bai Ruozhu heard this and went from anger to laughter. No wonder he was called the Ghost Doctor; he really had no sense at all, being able to say such things with such righteousness.

"Even if you kill me, he will not marry your daughter. He will only hate you more, and one day, he will surely avenge me," Bai Ruozhu said.

The Ghost Doctor jumped up, his attacks becoming all the more fierce. Two dark guards were hit by his silver needles and fell to the ground, unable to get up.

"Then I’ll force you to leave him on your own. I don’t believe you have no one you care about. Oh, isn’t it said that you have a child? As long as you don’t leave him, I will capture your child and turn them into a Poisonous Insect Person. Let’s see if you dare to oppose me then!" The Ghost Doctor approached Bai Ruozhu’s direction a lot as he spoke, still unrelenting in his desire to kill Bai Ruozhu.

Bai Ruozhu, gritting her teeth in anger, thought that the Ghost Doctor might have saved Achun, but with such intentions, he must not be allowed to live! To threaten her with her own child was seeking death!

She secretly signaled to Jianqi with a look, suggesting they pretend to be defeated and let the Ghost Doctor come closer. Jianqi received the signal with some concern, as the Ghost Doctor used hidden weapons, which had a longer range of attack, unlike those who used swords and could be more easily lured into a trap.

This moment of hesitation allowed the Ghost Doctor to seize the opportunity to break through the encirclement and launch an attack towards Bai Ruozhu’s direction, which was exactly what Bai Ruozhu had hoped for.

Bai Ruozhu quickly moved away to a distance, purposely showing a look of panic on her face as if she had fallen into an absolute crisis.

The Ghost Doctor, thinking he was about to succeed, charged even more fiercely. Suddenly, he noticed a white figure attacking him, moving even faster than his silver needles. He felt a surge of nervousness and instinctively dodged to the side, his body forcibly moving half a meter to the right.

But the white figure turned in mid-flight, still hitting him and then quickly flying away.

"You’re using Poisonous Insects!" the Ghost Doctor cried out, but his voice was drowned out by the explosion of Heaven-shaking Thunder; he had never expected that in avoiding the Poisonous Insect, he would be forced into another trap - no, to be exact, the Heaven-shaking Thunder that was waiting for him.

The Ghost Doctor was blasted away, crashing to the ground where he spat out two mouthfuls of black blood. He quickly took out a silver needle and jabbed it into his chest, sealing the spread of the Poisonous Insect poison within his body, but his complexion looked terribly awful, as the poison was more ruthless than he had expected.

Upon seeing the Ghost Doctor injured, the rest rushed over to capture him, but the Ghost Doctor threw two pill grenades and with a flash, dashed back into the formation.

The crowd was severely coughing from the medicine smoke, and those with weaker inner strength had already collapsed to the ground. Bai Ruozhu rushed over and gave each person a Detoxification Pill, which they promptly swallowed.

"It’s a pity he got away. I don’t know about Achun..." Bai Ruozhu’s brows were tightly knit with worry as she hadn’t expected the Ghost Doctor to still be able to escape. She was concerned he might harm Achun in a fit of rage, but they couldn’t break the formation and had no way to find where the Ghost Doctor was hiding.

"Madam, try not to worry too much. I believe the Ghost Doctor is already at the end of his rope," Muyu said, seeing the troubled look on Bai Ruozhu’s face and spoke up to reassure her.

Bai Ruozhu snapped back to reality, forcing herself not to let her thoughts run wild. The most pressing matter was to detoxify the group; otherwise, without their fighting strength, even if they could break the formation, rescuing anyone would be uncertain.

She had everyone sit in meditation to regulate their breathing while she started to administer Acupuncture to control the poison in each person. Fortunately, the poison from the smoke grenade that the Ghost Doctor had thrown carelessly wasn’t difficult to handle. She had the necessary pills in her space and quietly took them out, distributing them to everyone to take.

Quite soon, Bai Ruozhu’s side was reorganized and ready, yet despite an extensive search, they still couldn’t locate the Ghost Doctor’s hiding place.

Meanwhile, things were not going well for the Ghost Doctor. Upon returning to his formation, he had passed out. If it weren’t for the fact that no one on Bai Ruozhu’s side knew how to break the formation, they could have walked in and seen the Ghost Doctor lying there like a dead fish, and killing him would have been all too easy, right?

About a quarter of an hour later, the Ghost Doctor slowly came to and quickly devoured some medicine before he pulled out the silver needle that was sealing his chest.

"That woman is truly vicious..." The Ghost Doctor winced from the pain, his expression contorted. He couldn’t finish his sentence before heaving for air, as if he might run out of breath at any moment.

After regulating his Qi for another quarter of an hour, he managed to make it back home with difficulty.

Nianrong was startled to see her father in such a state and rushed over to support him, asking, "Dad, what happened to you? Who hurt you?"

The Ghost Doctor glared hatefully at Jiang Yichun, who had just walked up to the door, and weakly said, "Your husband’s wife brought people over. I was planning to help you kill that contemptible woman, but unexpectedly, I fell into her trap."

A glimmer of amusement flickered in Jiang Yichun’s eyes. Was he about to be saved by Ruozhu once again? Although, as a man, this made him feel somewhat defeated, he also took pride in his woman.

A flood of longing for her suddenly broke through, spreading from his heart to his entire body. A trace of tenderness appeared on his usually cold face, softening his entire demeanor somewhat.

Noticing the change in him, a look of dejection flashed in Nianrong’s eyes. Why couldn’t he spare her a fraction of that tenderness?

"Daughter, pack up our things. We’re leaving immediately." The Ghost Doctor, supported by Nianrong into the house and propped against a chair, was gasping heavily after speaking and his face was completely void of color, clearly suffering from serious internal injuries.

Jiang Yichun was pondering how to make his escape when suddenly Nianrong moved. In a flash, she dashed in front of Jiang Yichun and swiftly aimed for his Acupuncture points.
