At this critical moment, Wu Junyao suddenly drew his sword and swung it at Gu Qinglang, the blade cutting through the air and pointing directly at Gu Qinglang's shoulder. Jiang Yanwan and King Jin were startled and couldn't help but take a breath.

"Jun Yao, what are you doing!" Jiang Yanwan asked angrily, "Mr. Gu is our savior!"

Gu Qinglang barely escaped, but was still cut on the shoulder by Wu Junyao's sword. He covered the wound with pain in his eyes, but did not fight back immediately.

Wu Junyao looked at him coldly, but did not retract the sword in his hand: "You are not Mr. Gu, who are you!"

Jiang Yanwan was stunned, looking at Wu Junyao's expression, then looking at Gu Qinglang, she couldn't help but wonder: "Junyao, why do you say that?"

"The real Mr. Gu would never risk breaking into the enemy camp like this." Wu Junyao said firmly, "Besides, don't you find that there is something wrong with his words and actions?"

Gu Qinglang's face changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down: "You are talking nonsense! I am Gu Qinglang, I am here to rescue you!"

King Jin silently observed the confrontation between the two, and gradually doubts arose in his heart. He took a step forward and asked calmly: "If you are really Mr. Gu, please answer a question. What was the first sentence you said to Jiang Yanwan when you first met her?"

Gu Qinglang was silent for a moment, obviously thinking about this question. But Wu Junyao obviously didn't give him more time, and the sword edge approached again: "Why don't you speak quickly?"

Gu Qinglang's forehead was covered with sweat, and the panic in his eyes was seen by everyone. Finally, he sighed helplessly, suddenly lowered his body, took a few steps back, and suddenly took off a fake mask, revealing his true face.

"You are indeed a fake!" Wu Junyao sneered, "Tell me, who are you and why are you pretending to be Mr. Gu?"

After the man revealed his true face, a ferocious smile flashed across his face: "Even if you find out, so what? King Qing had already expected that you would become suspicious, so he sent me to delay time."

Jiang Yanwan and King Jin woke up at the same time, their eyes full of anger and vigilance. At this time, there were messy footsteps outside the tent. It was obvious that King Qing's men had noticed the movement and were rushing over.

"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" Jiang Yanwan whispered, "We must leave here immediately, otherwise we will be trapped!"

King Jin nodded and agreed with her judgment: "Let's go, let's retreat quickly!"

Wu Junyao knocked the counterfeit to the ground with a sword, and then the three of them quickly rushed out of the tent. King Qing's men heard the noise and came over, and the two sides immediately started a fierce fight.

Prince Jin and Wu Junyao joined forces to fight the enemy, while Jiang Yanwan looked for an opportunity to break out. In the chaos, they gradually fought their way out of the siege and retreated outside the camp. However, their actions had obviously been spotted by Prince Qing's men, and enemy soldiers attacked from all directions from time to time, trying to prevent their escape.

"We must find horses and fight for a way to survive!" Wu Junyao proposed loudly.

King Jin nodded: "Okay, rush to the stable!"

With everyone's joint efforts, they finally found the stable, grabbed a few horses and quickly climbed on them. However, the pursuers under King Qing were still chasing them, and the rain of arrows forced them to speed up.

"We can't be chased any further, otherwise we will be caught sooner or later!" Jiang Yanwan said anxiously.

The King of Jin gripped the reins tightly, his eyes determined: "Everyone, retreat separately, cover each other, and try to escape."

Wu Junyao and Jiang Yanwan nodded in agreement, and then the three of them quickly dispersed, each leading the pursuers to rush in different directions. Although the enemy soldiers dispersed some of their strength, they still stubbornly tracked them.

Jiang Yanwan galloped on her horse, her ears filled with the sound of the wind and the noisy shouts of the enemy soldiers. After running for an unknown amount of time, she finally shook off the pursuers behind her and stopped to catch her breath. Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, a familiar figure appeared in front of her -

"Prince Jin?" Jiang Yanwan exclaimed in surprise.

King Jin nodded slightly, his expression still grim: "The enemy is still chasing us not far away, we can't stay here for long."

Jiang Yanwan realized the urgency of the situation and immediately turned her horse around to follow King Jin. Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking through the air, and several feather arrows shot straight at them.

The King of Jin was quick-witted and swift-handed, and he immediately swung his sword to block most of the arrows, but one arrow still grazed his arm, leaving a trail of blood.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Yanwan asked with concern.

King Jin gritted his teeth to hold back the pain and shook his head: "It's okay, just a superficial wound. We must find a safe place as soon as possible."

The two continued to gallop on horseback, and finally found a hidden cave in a valley. They quickly entered the cave, hid the horses, and then took a short rest.

"I hope Wu Junyao can get away safely." Jiang Yanwan said in a low voice, her heart full of worry.

King Jin nodded: "He is a skilled warrior and should be able to protect himself. We now need to think about how to contact our allies and regroup."

Jiang Yanwan looked at King Jin's tired but determined expression, and secretly vowed in her heart that she would face it together with him no matter how difficult it was. The two were discussing the next plan when footsteps suddenly came from outside the cave.

"Who!" King Jin immediately became alert and drew his sword.

A figure slowly walked into the cave. It was Wu Junyao. His clothes were a little messy, but he was still in high spirits.

"Jun Yao, are you okay?" Jiang Yanwan asked happily.

Wu Junyao smiled slightly: "I'm fine, I finally got rid of the pursuers."

"Jun Yao, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Yanwan saw Wu Jun Yao's body swaying and hurried forward to support him. Only then did she realize that his face was pale and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

King Jin also immediately became alert and stepped forward to check the situation. "Not good, he's poisoned." King Jin whispered, his sharp eyes caught a hint of dark purple on Wu Junyao's arm, which was a sign of the poison taking effect.

Jiang Yanwan's heart tightened. She knew that if she was not treated in time, the poison would spread rapidly and the consequences would be disastrous. "We must detoxify immediately!" she said firmly.

"But we are in the wilderness, where can we find the antidote?" King Jin looked around anxiously. There was nothing else in the cave except the three of them and a few tired horses.

Jiang Yanwan quickly thought of a first aid method. Although she was not sure whether it would work, at this critical moment, any glimmer of hope was worth a try. "I remember there is an emergency detoxification method, maybe..." Before she finished speaking, her eyes were determined. She pulled out a short blade from her sleeve without hesitation and slashed her wrist fiercely.

"Yan Wan, no!" King Jin wanted to stop her, but it was too late. He saw a line of blood sliding down Jiang Yanwan's white wrist and dripping onto Wu Junyao's lips.

Wu Junyao opened his eyes weakly and was about to speak to stop them, but was interrupted by Jiang Yanwan: "Don't talk, save your energy." Her voice was soft but extremely firm, as if telling them that this was the only choice she could make.

The blood slowly merged, and Wu Junyao's complexion seemed to improve a little, but it only temporarily stabilized the toxicity. Jiang Yanwan endured the pain and continued to carefully drip blood into Wu Junyao's mouth.
