Xue Ruanruan, riding her donkey, was curious about the luxurious carriage inside when it suddenly stopped. The door opened, and a woman in magnificent clothes and with a beautiful face slowly stepped out. Her eyebrows were furrowed, her face full of anger, and she pointed at Xue Ruanruan, yelling, "You country bumpkin, riding this broken donkey and blocking my way! Get out of my way!" Xue Ruanruan frowned, displeased, but still politely said, "Miss, I'll make way for you." She then tried to urge her donkey to the side. But the woman persisted, saying disdainfully, "Your donkey is filthy; don't dirty my carriage." Xue Ruanruan was annoyed and about to retort when she suddenly heard a gentle voice from inside the carriage: "Sister, please don't be so rude. This young lady didn't mean it." As she spoke, another woman alighted from the carriage. She possessed a gentle demeanor, her eyes filled with affection, and smiled as she said to Xue Ruanruan, "Sister, please don't be offended. My younger sister has a rather quick temper." Seeing her kindness, Xue Ruanruan's anger subsided somewhat, and she nodded with a smile. Just then, the sound of horses' hooves approached from afar, suggesting something significant was about to happen. Xue Ruanruan entered her spatial dimension. As soon as she entered, she heard a commotion outside. Looking through the special perspective of the dimension, she saw a group of assassins dressed in black surging in from all directions, their target the two carriages. The hot-tempered woman was terrified, her face pale, trembling behind the gentle woman. Although the gentle woman also showed fear, she maintained a facade of composure, directing her guards to resist. The assassins attacked aggressively, and the guards gradually found themselves overwhelmed. A thought struck Xue Ruanruan. Although she didn't want to meddle, these two women had been quite polite to her earlier. After a moment's thought, she took out a bow and arrow from her spatial storage and quietly fired a few shots, felling several assassins to the ground. Encouraged, the guards' morale soared, and they gradually turned the tide. Seeing the situation was dire, the assassins fled. Once the commotion subsided, Xue Ruanruan emerged from her spatial storage. The two women, seeing Xue Ruanruan, were filled with gratitude. The gentle woman stepped forward, took Xue Ruanruan's hand, and said, "Sister, I am deeply grateful for your life-saving grace. May I ask your name?" Xue Ruanruan smiled and gave her name, and thus began a wondrous encounter. Suddenly, Murong Xun was poisoned. Just as everyone was still immersed in the relief of surviving, Murong Xun suddenly clutched his chest, his face deathly pale, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, and his body swaying precariously. The gentle woman exclaimed in surprise and rushed forward to support him, anxiously asking, "Brother Xun, what happened to you?" Murong Xun painfully squeezed out a few words, "I... I've been poisoned." Xue Ruanruan was shocked; she hadn't expected Murong Xun to be poisoned. At this moment, the hot-tempered woman also panicked, crying out, "What should we do!" Xue Ruanruan quickly went to examine him and found that the poison Murong Xun had been afflicted with was very strange; ordinary antidotes would likely be useless. Just as everyone was at a loss, Xue Ruanruan suddenly remembered that she had a rare antidote herb in her spatial storage. She excused herself to go find some herbs nearby, re-entered her spatial storage, and retrieved the herb. Returning to the group, Xue Ruanruan fed the herb to Murong Xun. After a while, Murong Xun's complexion gradually regained some color, and his breathing became much more stable.
