Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

Jun Feimo stood quietly in the middle of the yard, staring ahead.

At this moment, Chu Zixi's figure gradually came into his sight.

When Jun Feimo saw her, he took a step forward without hesitation. He asked in a low voice, "Xi'er, how is Yun Shenqi doing now?"

Chu Zixi walked quickly to Jun Feimo, looking a little tired, but still trying to stay calm, and replied: "He luckily avoided the fatal blow, and his life is safe for now. However, due to the serious injuries and excessive blood loss, he urgently needs to recuperate and get enough rest."

Hearing this news, Jun Feimo's originally anxious heart settled down a little, but then, his brows were tightly furrowed again.

Jun Feimo gently stretched out his arm, hugged Chu Zixi's weak shoulders, and said in a firm tone: "Xi'er, you can rest here tonight. I will bring people to completely eliminate those who are chasing them. Tomorrow, we will set out on the journey home together."

However, Chu Zixi shook her head stubbornly to express her opposition.

"Mo, I want to go with you! They were so bold as to assassinate my eldest cousin. I would not be a gentleman if I don't take revenge. I must wipe out these people with my own hands!" Chu Zixi's eyes flashed with anger and determination.

Jun Feimo couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He obviously didn't expect Chu Zixi to be so persistent.

He frowned, and his tone revealed a certain unquestionable majesty: "Xi'er, you have been very tired after traveling all the way here. Besides, there is no one proficient in medicine here, and you can take care of it if you stay. So, you should stay here and recuperate, and I will take care of the enemy."

When Chu Zixi thought of Yun Shenqi, a very complicated emotion flashed involuntarily in her beautiful eyes.

After a long while, Chu Zixi nodded slightly, and then she opened her red lips and slowly uttered a word: "Okay."

After hearing Chu Zixi's answer, Jun Feimo, who had been standing aside waiting for instructions, immediately turned around and ordered in a deep voice to the group of well-trained, ghostly secret guards behind him: "You leave some of your people here to guard the princess, and you must not slack off in the slightest! If the princess loses a single hair, bring her head to me! The rest of you, follow me and leave quickly!" Although his voice was not loud, it was full of majesty and domineering, and no one dared to disobey.

"Yes!" The secret guards responded in unison, and then quickly acted according to Jun Feimo's orders.

In the blink of an eye, Jun Feimo led most of the secret guards and disappeared into the dark night like an arrow. Only a few people were left to guard Chu Zixi's safety.

Chu Zixi stood alone in the middle of the yard silently, her eyes following Jun Feimo's back as he walked farther and farther away until he finally disappeared completely.

The night wind gently brushed across her face, bringing a hint of coolness, but she didn't seem to notice it at the moment.

As the night deepened, the surroundings became increasingly quiet.

Chu Zixi slowly withdrew her gaze, turned and walked towards the room at the side.

When she stepped into the room, she found that although her body was very tired, the thoughts in her mind were still surging like the tide, making it impossible for her to fall asleep peacefully.

So, Chu Zixi simply walked to the window and sat down, holding her chin with both hands, staring at the bright moon hanging high in the sky outside the window with her beautiful eyes.

The moonlight sprinkled on the ground like water, as if covering the entire courtyard with a layer of silver yarn. At this moment, her mind was full of thousands of thoughts.

Just then, there was a slight noise coming from outside the door.

Then, a clear and pleasant voice came into Chu Zixi's ears: "Sister Xi..."

Chu Zixi turned around when she heard the voice, and said with a gentle smile on her face: "Mengting, come in quickly."

Chu Mengting said nothing, but walked straight to Chu Zixi, sat down slowly, held Chu Zixi's hands tightly, and rested her head on her shoulder.

Her voice was trembling. "Sister Xi, those guards who protected us...are all dead. I was scared to death. I almost thought that Brother Qi and I would not survive."

Chu Zixi heard this, gently held Chu Mengting's hand, and comforted her softly: "Okay, it's okay, don't think about it."

Chu Mengting nodded, tears welling up in her eyes but she forced herself not to let them fall.

She choked up and said, "Well, Brother Qi is asleep now."

Chu Zixi stretched out her fair and slender hand and gently placed it on Chu Mengting's slightly thin back. She leaned close to Chu Mengting's ear and whispered in a voice as warm and gentle as the spring breeze: "Mengting, go to sleep quickly. You must have not had a good rest in these days. Now I'm here with you, so you don't have to worry about anything."

After hearing these words, Chu Mengting's tense heart finally relaxed.

Her beautiful eyes gradually closed, like two delicate folding fans gently closing.

Immediately afterwards, her delicate body naturally leaned on Chu Zixi's warm shoulders.

Not long after, even and subtle breathing sounds came from her nose, and it was obvious that she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Chu Zixi stared quietly at the face in front of her, which looked a little haggard due to fatigue and worry, and an indescribable feeling of pity welled up in her heart.

She carefully raised her other hand, her movements as gentle as the breeze blowing across the lake, gently stroking Chu Mengting's delicate and smooth cheek, feeling the slight warmth from her fingertips.

Then, she slowly stood up, gently picked up the sleeping Chu Mengting, tiptoed to the bed, carefully laid her flat on the bed, and carefully covered her with a soft quilt, fearing that she would be disturbed by any carelessness.

After settling Chu Mengting down, Chu Zixi did not choose to lie down on the bed to rest with her. Instead, she turned around and walked to the table, gently lying on it.

Perhaps because of the fatigue from running around, not long after, her heavy eyelids began to close uncontrollably, her consciousness gradually became blurred, and finally she fell asleep.

However, in sharp contrast to the peaceful and tranquil scene here is the dilapidated temple on the other side shrouded in darkness.

At this moment, a thrilling life-and-death battle is taking place there!

Jun Feimo led his men in pursuit all the way here and discovered the mysterious figures that were chasing Yun Shenqi.
