Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2241: Chapter 2240: Everything Was Seen Through

”Ah...” A miserable scream echoed, followed closely by the explosion of the fire thunder, and unbelievably, the old lady and the old man were blown up by the fire thunder buried by their own Quanrong Clan!

Following that was the old man’s scream, but it was quickly drowned out by the explosion, and the mechanists on the Jiuli Clan’s side cheered, finally venting their anger.

Unexpectedly, a figure ran out from the fiery explosion, and Bai Ruozhu squinted to see that it was the old lady!

Only her entire arm was gone, and the old man she was dragging was nowhere to be seen.

Soon, her figure disappeared into the darkness, but a hoarse and shrill cry came from afar, ”I will not let you go, I will kill your entire family, let you die oozing pus all over your bodies!”

Her voice echoed in the night sky, lingering for a long time.

Bi Tao couldn’t help but shiver and muttered, ”What exactly is that poisonous old lady, that she isn’t burned or blown to death by this?”

”Probably just lucky, or the old man took most of the hit for her,” Xiu Shao said.

Jiang Yichun rushed out of the barrier, reaching out to support Bai Ruozhu, ”Ruozhu, are you okay?”

Bai Ruozhu dodged again, ”Don’t touch me, if you get poisoned, it will be a problem; I have resistance to poison and can detoxify myself. But if you get poisoned, it will be trouble.”

”If you need any medicinal materials, I will find them now.” Jiang Yichun saw her pale face and was so distressed that he was dumbfounded, forgetting that Bai Ruozhu stored many medicinal materials in Space.

”No need, I’ll just find some herbal medicine nearby, but you all be careful.” Bai Ruozhu did not have time to say much and hurriedly walked aside, heading to a secluded place, then dove into Space.

Upon entering, she headed straight for the small Hot Spring, quickly took off her outer garment, and jumped in.

A ripping sound came from her shoulder again, and black smoke once more drifted up; this Heart Blood Refining Poison was truly formidable.

But how many people would use their own heart blood to refine poison? In doing so, every part of her body would be poisonous, so no wonder she was so feared when she went to help the old man earlier.

The Hot Spring Pool had turned back to white, no longer affected by Jiang Yichun’s black blood, but now Bai Ruozhu’s poisonous blood flowed from her wound, slowly turning the water of the Hot Spring Pool black again.

Bai Ruozhu quickly applied needles to her shoulder, extracting all the poison.

Little Dengdeng heard the commotion and hurried over, saying worriedly, ”Mother, why are you hurt again? I don’t want you to be hurt, I don’t want you to be in such pain.”

”Mother is okay, it was my carelessness, I’ll be fine soon, but you can’t touch the Hot Spring Pool water, okay?” Bai Ruozhu instructed.

”I know, I haven’t touched it these days.” Little Dengdeng was very understanding.

Bai Ruozhu didn’t dare to stay in Space for too long, not knowing what changes might occur outside. When she had drained most of the poisonous blood from her shoulder, she then looked at her shoulder and couldn’t help but be startled.

The poisonous blood from the old lady had splashed in three places, creating very small specks but causing three extremely deep corrosive holes. If she hadn’t handled it in time, it might have corroded down to the bone.

She found a clean set of undergarments, changed into them, and re-donned her outer garment, giving Tutu and Xiaohei some instructions before leaving Space.

She hadn’t expected to hear the sounds of soldiers clashing not far away just as she came out; You Meng had come with his men to attack!

Bai Ruozhu didn’t rush over to help but squinted her eyes; for You Meng to come himself, he must be anxious?

”Did you really think you could burn out the Fire-Thunder Formation?” You Meng raised a hand, and a clattering sound came from afar as a mechanical trap opened, revealing deep trenches that isolated the flames outside.

Unexpectedly, the explosion power of the Fire-Thunder Formation was tremendous, and it even concealed traps within!

The burning fire was isolated, and the further in they went, the fewer objects there were, so the fire quickly diminished, and Bai Ruozhu and company had almost used up all their Kerosene Bombs.

Bai Ruozhu took out a Porcelain Bottle and poured out all the Poison Powder; her people had taken the green Detoxification Medicine Pills and wouldn’t be affected, but You Meng’s people couldn’t say the same.

”Poison! Be careful, everyone!” You Meng shouted, ”Form ranks, activate trick techniques!”

Bai Ruozhu suddenly widened her eyes and shot forward; the sleeve arrow mechanism on her arm activated, and short arrows shot rapidly toward You Meng.

Seeing Jiang Yichun’s hand gesture, Fen Jizhi and the others immediately retreated in the planned direction.

Bai Ruozhu rushed over to pull Jiang Yichun, and the two quickly retreated as well.

The first attack from the trick techniques came from behind, and the two ran for their lives, feeling a rush of qi hit them from behind, almost knocking them over, but it also widened the distance between them and You Meng.

Half an hour later, they finally made it to a safe spot, collapsing to the ground and panting heavily; tonight had been utterly exhausting!

”Even though we didn’t destroy the Fire-Thunder Formation today, the Quanrong suffered significant losses, with a high-ranking expert killed and many fire thunders detonated,” Fen Jizhi said happily. ”I don’t believe they have enough fire thunders to withstand us burning them like this.”

Bai Ruozhu shook her head, ”I think he’ll soon have a countermeasure. Next time, if we want to toss Kerosene Bombs like this, it won’t be so easy. Although You Meng is detestable, he’s got brains.”

Fen Jizhi was not discouraged upon hearing this and said, ”We’ll keep brainstorming, at least we’ve made a good start today.”

...

”Father, we searched all over the City but still couldn’t find that bastard Jiang Yichun. I couldn’t exact revenge,” Fo Lanying said on the way back, having heard news of what happened, and secretly rejoiced, but she had to put on an act in front of You Meng.

Unexpectedly, You Meng glared at her fiercely and suddenly grabbed her by the neck.

”How did they know my encirclement plan? Is there someone informing them?” His fingers tightened, ”Was it you?”

Fo Lanying showed a look of panic, ”Father, let me go. I’ve been with you every day lately, and you didn’t tell me any plans, so how could I inform them? Am I really your biological daughter? How can you choke me?”

You Meng was brutal; if his biological daughter had betrayed him, he definitely wouldn’t be soft-hearted, and even if he didn’t kill Fo Lanying outright, he would severely punish her.

But Fo Lanying was right; she had been under his watchful eye the whole time and had no opportunity to inform anyone. Even when she went to Duanyang City tonight, it was after his actions, and Bai Ruozhu’s group had somehow known his plans in advance.

”Could they have anticipated it?” You Meng muttered, loosening his grip and releasing Fo Lanying.

”Girl, don’t blame your father for being ruthless. Even if it’s my own child, I won’t show mercy if they betray me. You better not be involved in this, but from now on, you’d better behave, or when I kill you, no blood relation will save you.”

Fo Lanying shivered subconsciously; had he seen through her intentions?
