Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 216 - Ambushed Half-way

Chapter 216 Ambushed Half-way

There was a look of doubt in Qinghu’s eyes.

Qinghu’s instinct to sense danger as a killer enabled him to confirm his suspicion in this state of silence.

He lagged behind the rest on purpose and hid himself among the woods and no one noticed or beca suspicious.

If the person behind all this was a small fry, he would settle it quietly on his own.

The rest of the group proceeded with their journey forward but for so reason, Lin ngya’s thoughts were in a whirl.

She stole a glance at Long Tianhao, but finally decided to keep quiet about her bafflent.

Why would there be water caltrop grass in the Emperor’s dicine? The main function of water caltrop grass was to neutralize the poison in a person’s body. She had never heard how it could benefit man’s health in any other way.

Moreover, her teacher even lanted that this dicine had existed purely for neutralizing poison when he talked about the water caltrop grass.

She hoped that it was only because she and her teacher had been ignorant.

This matter concerned the monarch of the country. She should not make any careless deduction if she did not have any solid evidence.

“Hang on tight!” cried Long Tianhao with a serious expression on his face.

.

Lin ngya instinctively tightened her arms around the neck of the horse.

The horse they rode on lifted its front legs as it made a great leap.

Unfortunately, the horses following behind Long Tianhao’s horse did not react in ti and fell forward one by one.

In that instant, a number of soldiers were injured, although not seriously.

“A horse-tripping rope! Why is there a horse-tripping rope?”

Long Tianhao pulled the rein and his horse stopped in its tracks and looked around gravely.

He had expected that the journey to pick the herb would not be smooth-going, however, he was surprised that they were ambushed so early into their journey.

“Be careful, everyone! We’re ambushed!”

Imdiately, the leader of the group of soldiers kept his guard up.

They were experienced soldiers who had been through countless battles, therefore they were naturally aware of the situation.

“Protect Miss Lin. The rest of you, separate yourselves and search in different directions!”

Most of them were left behind to guard Lin ngya, while a few highly skilled soldiers headed in all four directions.

“Stay by my side,” Long Tianhao said with a somber expression as he drew out his sword.

.

“Ah... Be careful!”

Soone shouted a warning as the sentinels who went to check out the surrounding were nowhere to be seen.

There was a pained look on the leader’s face and the grave expression on his face had instantly turned to that of deep hatred.

Although they were prepared to die at first, the leader thought it necessary to avenge the lives of his subordinates.

“All of us soldiers must protect Miss Lin with our lives!”

They were all the soldiers of the Lin Family. They were ready to sacrifice their lives for the lives of Lin Muzhi and Lin Nansheng anyti.

At this mont, a great number of assassins dressed in black erged from the surrounding woods, flying.

However, their movents, including their footsteps were quiet and steady and strangely swift.

Although Lin ngya did not know any martial arts, she knew that they had t with a great crisis today.

“The soldiers of the Lin Family are an elite troop. Your ambition ultimate should be to go for war at the battlefront. I’m here for that girl today, so I’m prepared to let the rest go,” said one of the assassins.

He was the leader of the group of n dressed in black. His voice was hoarse but cold and threatening.

Their target was indeed Lin ngya. However, after hearing what the leader of the assassins said, the soldiers of the Lin Family were not the least shaken from their resolve.

They remained standing tall in response to the confrontation of the n in black.

“Charge!”

Seeing that his threat was not working, the leader of the n in black lost all patience.

He cried out his order and his subordinates moved like a wave to surround Lin ngya and her companions.

The soldiers remained silent as they started wielding their weapons and charged forward at the sa ti.

Soon, the common windy path through the woods was filled the noises of fighting and the sll of blood.

“Run away, Your Highness!” cried Lin ngya.

Long Tianhao had been standing in front of Lin ngya, trying to block her from any attacks. However, Lin ngya wanted him to leave first, so he could be out of danger.

She could see that the soldiers were having a hard ti defending against the assassins. She was afraid she would likely fall into their hands this ti.

“Don’t worry,” Long Tianhao tried to reassure her.

Nevertheless, Long Tianhao was gradually finding it tough to defend against the kungfu moves of the assassins in black.

He looked at those n in black coldly, hoping that he could spot sothing on them that identified them. However, they were completely unlike any powers that he had seen.

He could more or less guess that these were the sa people who assassinated Lin Nansheng.

They seed so highly skilled. It was no wonder they were able to fully escape when faced with the valiant soldiers of the Lin Family.

“Capture Lin ngya, alive or dead!”

The target the n in black were focusing on was indeed Lin ngya.

For this reason, it was especially trying for Long Tianhao and Lin Zhongyu, who were her guardians.

Lin ngya also drew out the dagger which her elder brother had given her.

If she eventually fell into the hands of the n in black, she would rather die than to beco a hostage through which they threatened those who loved her.

“You stay here and bear in mind to be on your toes and use your wits!”

Long Tianhao instructed Lin ngya and pushed her into so bushes nearby, then he continued fighting their enemies.

As Long Tianhao realized that there seed to be countless n in black who kept appearing, he was prepared for the worst.

It was obvious that these n knew his identity. They were careful not to use all their strength when they attacked him.

Not long after, there were a number of dead bodies lying around Long Tianhao.

This seed to have provoked the n in black to anger, and they stopped being hesitant but started attacking Long Tianhao with fatal strikes!

Lin ngya, who was in hiding looked out of the bushes anxiously.

Xiaoyu could be seen using bizarre moves and he would flee when he was unable to defend so of the attacks of the enemies. Long Tianhao, on the other hand, stuck to using strong counterattacks. Soon, his clothes were torn by the enemies’ weapons at several places.

He had no doubt sustained so injuries on his body.

By this ti, everyone’s attention was attracted to Long Tianhao and the remaining soldiers. No one had yet to discover Lin ngya’s hiding place.

However, as ti went by, the n in black realized that sothing was amiss.

As Lin ngya was worrying about the others, danger had crept up on her.

One man in black who had been ambushed among the others had spotted where she was hiding.

He quietly crept up to her unnoticed.

There was a look of pride and satisfaction in the man’s eyes.

If he managed to capture this girl, he would have done a great service and be handsoly rewarded!

He drew out the long sword which reflected an evil ray of light.

The alarm on Lin ngya’s radar went off. She instantly turned around and saw the light reflected off the man’s sword.

Fortunately, she ca to this realization at the last minute and made herself fall backwards, thereby dodging the man’s attack. However, her arm was slashed by his sword and started to bleed from the laceration.

The other party had not expected a girl to be so alert. He recovered from the little shock and struck out again with another smirk.

This ti, Lin ngya was not so lucky.

Being unable to react as fast, she could only lie on her back and watched as the man’s sword ca towards her chest.

“Click...” the man’s long sword sared with poison was blocked by another sword.

The sharp sword rely made a small cut on Lin ngya’s outer coat.

In the next mont, a figure dressed in white was fighting with that man in black who attacked her.

Lin ngya, who just had a brush with death, panted heavily as she realized that the person who saved her life was none other than Long Qinghan, whose acupuncture point was sealed by Long Tianhao earlier!

“You really are a troubleso thing! You’ve got to repay my kindness if we are able to overco this crisis!”

Lin ngya rested her hand on her chest. She would never have expected Long Qinghan, who was usually playful and cheeky, was actually such a highly-skilled martial artist.

She cald her breathing as she watched Long Qinghan and so other n join the battle.

Although their n were fewer than those n in black, they were a highly-skilled elite group of fighters. Soon, all the n in black were overco by them.

“Be careful, Your Highness!”

While Lin Kui fought against the enemies, he cried out to Long Tianhao to warn him of the dangers.

The leader in black, knowing these n who just arrived were Long Tianhao’s n, wanted to catch hold of Long Tianhao first so he would have the upper hand in the attack.

“Be careful, everyone. There’s poison sared on their swords!”

Lin ngya shouted out as a warning to the other, but at the sa ti she exposed her hiding place.

Long Qinghan furrowed his brows. Not only was Lin ngya unable to help out in any way, she had made things even more complicated now.

Just as he expected, won spelled trouble!

The man darted towards Lin ngya imdiately while she went deeper into the woods with a fluid motion, as if it was part of her plan.

The man in black pursued Lin ngya into the heart of the woods, when she stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at the man with fear in her eyes.

“If you’re clever, you should follow us. Perhaps you’ll be able to preserve your life in this way!”

The leader said confidently. To him, catching a girl who did not know any kungfu alive was as easy as pie.

The man knew Long Tianhao was busy fighting his way out, so he began closing in on Lin ngya.

Just when the leader was about to grab hold of Lin ngya, she took out sothing from her clothes in a flash and waved it in the air.

Imdiately, a white, powdery substance went into the air and filled the space.

Lin ngya smirked in a bizarre way as the white powder fell onto nine out of ten of the n in black.

“Be careful! The powder could be poisonous!”

The leader of the group covered his mouth and nose with his hand. However, Lin ngya took out sothing else from her clothes and the n backed from fear.

“Indeed it’s poisonous so don’t move. Do you think it’ll be alright just by covering your mouth and nose? Let tell you, as long as the powder cos into contact with your skin, you’ll be poisoned!”

She had completely turned her pathetic situation around. The lives of these n in black were now in her hands.

However, the n in black who had yet to experience any reaction from the powder did not believe her words.

“Get her! What poison? She must be blowing smoke! How dare you, lass!”

The leader was obviously not taking Lin ngya’s words seriously. He waved at his subordinates, indicating for them to tie her up.

“Shush... shush...”

A sound ca from within the bushes which made the people’s hair stand.

Lin ngya fixed her eyes to look forward as the n in black started to put so rope around her securely.

“Bring her away!”

Those n were about to bring Lin ngya away when the other n standing at the peripheral started screaming in an alarming voice.

“Sothing, sothing crawled into my clothes!”

“Ouch! It’s biting ! Sothing’s biting !”

All the n in black stopped in their tracks at the cries.

At this mont, the bizarre smile at the corner of Lin ngya’s mouth looked creepy.

Great! It looked like the toy which her teacher gave her was taking effect on these n.

“What’s all that panic! Calm down! Find your footing!”

The leader of the n in black ordered with a deep voice, however, the n seed to have disappeared.
