Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Chapter 172 The tacit understanding between two people

Chi Li was stunned when he heard this.

When he found Ye Feng in his room, his first reaction was that Ye Feng came to settle accounts with him. After all, although he had no intention of assassinating Ye Feng, Ye Feng didn't know. In Ye Feng's cognition, he, the number one killer of the Soul-Seizing Tower, was the biggest threat to his life.

But he didn't expect that the reason why Ye Feng came uninvited was because of Ke'er.

"Why did His Highness appear in the Lu family?" He was more concerned about this point, "Does His Highness know Miss Ke'er?"

A chilly voice came from the night wind: "You call the girl by her name directly, have you ever thought that it might damage her reputation?"

"Didn't Your Highness call Ke'er by her first name?"

"How are you the same as me?"

"Why are they different? Aren't we facing the same person?" Chi Li asked back.

"Can you compare to the relationship between Ke'er and me?" Ye Feng asked angrily.

"What's your relationship?"

"us……"

Zuo Yi, who wanted to remain invisible, couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

"Your Highness." He coughed lightly, interrupting Ye Feng's words.

I never realized that His Highness had such a childish side before. I was originally here to warn Chi Li, why did the topic go so far away?

Ye Feng finally came to his senses and felt secretly annoyed.

"What is your purpose in saving Ke'er?" Ye Feng decided to bring the topic back to the main topic.

Chi Li kept silent.

Chi Li suddenly discovered that this crown prince who was said to be knowledgeable in astronomy and geography and wise and intelligent was not as unattainable as the rumors said. He was just like an ordinary person, he could get angry, jealous, and have a bad temper. This made him more casual and straightforward when facing the crown prince.

"Why don't you answer me?" Chi Li's silence made Ye Feng even angrier.

Is this guy being so rude because he relies on the fact that he is Ke'er's savior? Isn't he worried that if he angers him, his life will be in danger?

"It is said that Your Highness is extremely intelligent and has great foresight. I believe Your Highness already knows the reason, right?"

The night wind choked.

But after several conversations, he could see that Chi Li had a frank expression and had no ill will towards Ke Er. Naturally, he would not pose a threat to the Lu family.

Zuo Yi looked at Chi Li with admiration.

There are not many people in the world who can make Your Highness choke.

"I heard that you were poisoned?" Ye Feng changed the subject.

"Yes."

"Ke'er is detoxifying you?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"After the poison is resolved, you must leave the Lu family immediately." Ye Feng said in a commanding tone.

Chi Li was so angry that he laughed: "Why?"

"Don't forget, you are a killer. Staying with Ke'er will only bring danger to her." Ye Feng said seriously.

Chi Li sneered, "I think your highness is mistaken. You are more likely to put Ke'er in danger than I am. Your highness should not forget that there are many people in this world who want to kill you."

Ye Feng's expression froze.

"How dare you!" Zuo Yi scolded with a cold face.

Chi Li glanced at him coldly.

Zuo Yi was startled.

He is worthy of being the world's number one killer. The murderous intent in his eyes is as real as if it were real, making people feel oppressed.

Zuo Yi's hand quietly reached for the sword at his waist.

Ye Feng winked at Zuo Yi, stopping his next move, then turned to look at Chi Li and said in a low voice: "In the past few years, you should have had many opportunities to assassinate me. Why didn't you do it?"

"I only received the mission to assassinate you three months ago." Chi Li snorted, "Your Highness is overthinking."

The implication is that it's not that they won't kill, it's that they haven't had time to do it yet.

Ye Feng shook his head: "I have analyzed it carefully. Three months ago, I was in the fiefdom of King Chen. At that time, you should have had many opportunities to take action. Why did you hesitate to take action?"

Chi Li secretly admired Ye Feng's meticulousness, but he would never admit that he didn't want to assassinate him.

"I will decide when to assassinate you. Your Highness, please be careful. I may do it next time."

"Why wait until next time? Don't you have a chance now?" Ye Feng sneered.

Chi Li snorted coldly: "Your Highness, do you think I dare not?"

"Wait and see."

Chi Li stared at him.

Ye Feng was secretly proud of himself: I finally turned the tables.

He was finally sure that Chi Li would not assassinate him. He didn't know the specific reason. However, he felt very accomplished to be able to defeat this arrogant young killer.

Zuo Yi really couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

Two childish people.

"Your Highness, let's talk about business." He reminded Ye Feng secretly.

Ye Feng calmed down and said to Chi Li, "I still mean the same thing. Once you are cured of the poison, leave immediately."

"impossible!"

"Chi Li, don't think that I can't do anything to you! Although you are the number one killer, with great martial arts skills and few rivals, don't forget that there is always someone better than you. I will always find a few people who can deal with you." After being rejected by Chi Li time and time again, Ye Feng could hardly suppress the anger in his heart.

"Your Highness, you are really smart all your life, but confused for a moment." Chi Li sneered, "Instead of trying to find someone to deal with me, you should think about how to protect Ke'er."

"What do you mean?" Zuo Yi wondered.

"I was poisoned by the Soul-Seeking Tower owner in order to control me. I should have died from the poison, but Ke'er saved me. The Soul-Seeking Tower owner is a cruel and ruthless person. He would not allow such a situation to happen."

Then, he recounted in detail how the owner of Soul-Seizing Tower used poison to control the killers to work for him. As Ye Feng listened, his face became so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out.

"So, I can't leave the Lu family, especially Ke'er." Chi Li sighed, "If I leave, who can resist the people sent by Soul Suffering House to kill Ke'er? Your Highness, you?"

Although Ye Feng has many secret guards and many extraordinary people under his command, he cannot guarantee that he can protect Ke'er.

Ye Feng himself was aware of this, and thus became even more depressed.

"Your Highness, we are all concerned about Ke'er's safety, why don't we put aside our prejudices against each other?" Chi Li said, "I promise you, as long as I am alive, I will not let anything happen to Ke'er."

Ye Feng was startled when he heard this.

This promise is of great weight.

"Why do you want to do this?" Ye Feng smiled coldly, "Don't tell me that you are doing this to repay Ke'er for saving your life by detoxifying you. You must have other reasons."

"Yes." Chi Li smiled evilly, provocative, "But why should I tell you?"

………………

After walking out of the courtyard and seeing that there was no one around, Zuo Yi asked the doubts in his mind.

"Your Highness, why are you so sure that Chi Li has no intention of killing you?"

The night in the mountain village seemed particularly quiet. The cold wind blew through the forest, making a whistling sound. There were a few houses in the distance, with dim lights on.

Many families in the county town started to light charcoal fires to keep warm at night. However, in this poor mountain village, many mountain farmers would rather shiver in their worn-out quilts than burn charcoal.

In the Lu family's house, except for Lu Ke'er and Zuo Yi's rooms, charcoal fires were already burning in all the other rooms.

But the night wind doesn’t feel cold now.

"Because when I saw him look at me the first time he woke up, I knew he recognized me. But there was no murderous intent in his eyes." Ye Feng raised the corners of his lips slightly, with a hint of interest in his eyes. "A person's expression can be fake, but the eyes can't lie. This world-famous number one killer doesn't seem to be a reckless and ruthless person who only knows how to fight and kill. He has his principles."

"So Your Highness tacitly allowed him to stay with Miss Lu?"
