He didn’t know what the liquid was, but he wasn’t stupid.
He suddenly thought of the secret he knew about Lin Yuelan. Perhaps the liquid was related to that secret. Jiang Zhennan wasn’t that wrong.
The drop of liquid was taken from the river in Lin Yuelan’s space. It could detoxify all poisons.
When Liefeng went to Lin Yuelan to ask for help, she knew through Little Green that Jiang Zhennan had been poisoned.
Therefore, when she saw Jiang Zhennan lying on the ground, on his last breath, she asked Little Green to take away the knife of the leader and, at the same time, to drop a drop of spirit water into Jiang Zhennan’s mouth.
Therefore, Jiang Zhennan didn’t know where the water came from. He was touched by Lin Yuelan’s action and was worried about how innocent she was.
‘Doesn’t she know how precious her gift was? What if her power is found out by the bad people?
‘What an innocent and silly young woman.’
Although Jiang Zhennan was worried, he swore that if he could survive, he would definitely protect Lin Yuelan for the rest of her life and never let anyone hurt her.
Not only was she his savior, but she was also his only friend!

Lin Yuelan didn’t know what Jiang Zhennan was thinking.
She only knew that she had fulfilled her promise to Liefeng to save its master.
As for what happened next, she didn’t care.
She slowly walked towards the leader, took off his mask, and said in a cold, mocking, and innocent voice, “Big brother, wouldn’t it have been better if you have let me go earlier? That would be best for everyone, wouldn’t you agree?
“Even though I know Liefeng, the masked uncle and his men, I’m a woman of my words. As long as you let me go, I might really leave obediently.
“Then, you could have taken the masked uncle’s head and asked your master for a reward of ten thousand taels of gold. I will leave this place with Liefeng. Everyone will be happy. How good is that?
“However, tsk tsk …” Lin Yuelan tutted to emphasize her ridicule. Then, her tone changed, “Why did you have to anger me? Look at what you’ve done. You’ve made my little companions unhappy. When they are unhappy, they will start to grow crazily. It was them who formed the birdcage. I’m sure you know what that meant. No one will be able to escape.
“Big brother, you’re really unlucky. You’re the first to experience defeat under the hands of my little companions. Hehe…”
The leader was lifted up by vines into the air. He tried to struggle, but the vines were too strong. They wrapped around the leader’s neck. His face was red, white, and green. His face popped with veins.
After hearing Lin Yuelan, his choked face became terrified. His eyes were slightly bloodshot and protruding because of the chokehold on his neck. When he stared at Lin Yuelan, his eyes were filled with horror, nervousness, fear, and all sorts of other expressions.
Did she mean that the trees around them suddenly grew crazily because of her?
Was she a human or a demon? She had to be a demon! If she was not, how could she control the growth of nature? She had used her demonic power to enable that.

The leader looked at Lin Yuelan in horror. He was really regretful that he had stopped her from leaving. Then, his people wouldn’t have died. They could take Jiang Zhennan’s head back to the capital to receive the reward.
But wait!
The young woman said that she had met Jiang Zhennan and his men once before. So, she came on purpose to save them. It also explained why Jiang Zhennan’s horse would let her ride on its back.
He really regretted it now.
If he had cut off Jiang Zhennan’s head swiftly and left as soon as possible, he wouldn’t have met this female demon!
