Ch.24 Part 1 – The Cold Pond (I)
For a mont, the surrounding crowds fell into complete silence.
ng Qi looked at Chu Tianfeng in surprise. This young man, who previously risked his life to protect Lu Qingran, at this mont was looking at the sa woman with a dark face and icy glare.
None of the disciples of Qingfeng Valley or Fentian Palace dared to speak, all of them simply watched with a dumbfounded look.
Not long ago, they saw how this Fentian Palace’s young master ca back while hugging Senior Sister Lu. Did his heart change so quickly?
ng Qi lightly shook her hand, and Chu Tianfeng imdiately loosened the grip on her wrist. His hand hung down on the side. His palm seed to retain the sensation of ng Qi’s blue-colored sleeve. Her robe was made from very ordinary cotton fabric, but for him, it brought an indescribable warmth.
What is he doing?!
ng Qi frowned. Chu Tianfeng even criticized Lu Qingran in public. Why did she feel sowhat strange?
“I…I’m sorry…” After being silent for a while, Lu Qingran suddenly apologized weakly. She had been tornted by the poison, and now was scolded so rcilessly by the man she liked. Her face was getting hotter and hotter, both by the poison and the embarrassnt she felt.
“Tianfeng, I’m really worried about you, forgive …”
“You don’t have to apologize to .” Chu Tianfeng coldly interrupted Lu Qingran. He frowned and said: “The one you should apologize to is your junior sister.”
“I’m sorry, Junior Sister ng Qi.” Lu Qingran lightly bit her lower lip. She didn’t know what happened to Chu Tianfeng. She never intended to offend Junior Sister ng Qi and was simply too worried. When she heard that Chu Tianfeng was injured and carried back, she rushed to take a look. She couldn’t think clearly and accidentally ran into junior sister’s room.
“Oh.” ng Qi narrowed her eyes. Her tone was indifferent. “Be careful next ti.”
“I’m not intentional.” Lu Qingran still wanted to explain. She didn’t dare to ntion Chu Tianfeng’s na again: “I was really too worried just now.”
“I know.” ng Qi casually replied. She couldn’t afford to get mad at Lu Qingran, this heaven’s darling. Unless she was strong enough to fight against heaven, there was no need to made things big with Lu Qingran, lest the heavenly Dao saw her unpleasant and directly obliterated her.
Chu Tianfeng frowned, and wanted to speak again. He opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything. His impatience towards Lu Qingran reached its peak.
ng Qi took out a pill from her storage bracelet and threw it to Lu Qingran: “Antidote.”
In the protective array she set on the door, ng Qi put dicinal powder that would induce so ulcer and pus on the skin, but it was not very serious. At most, the skin would turn red and itchy, but the symptoms could easily be relieved by taking the antidote…
“Hiss——” When ng Qi saw Lu Qingran’s exposed face, she couldn’t help but take a gasp.
After she learned this protective array, she rarely used it. In the past, she usually put so lethal poisons, but this ti didn’t. She knew that when people touched the array, it would automatically release the powder, and also strengthening its effect a bit.
But she never knew it would be this scary?!
ng Qi stared at Lu Qingran’s face that had beco even a more disgusting and terrifying, and couldn’t help swallowing her saliva. No wonder Lu Qingran cried so miserably. When she took the dicine, she didn’t dare to let Chu Tianfeng saw her face. It was truly terrifying.
“Th-thank you, Junior Sister ng Qi.” Lu Qingran turned her back quickly and swallowed the pill. A chill imdiately spread all over her body, and the itching on her face eased a lot. Lu Qingran was surprised. She had taken the antidote pill she refined by herself, but the pill only aggravated the poison instead of nullifying it. However, the effect of ng Qi’s antidote was imdiate.
When did this little junior sister who entered the sect just half a year ago beco this powerful?! No wonder her master said that Elder Yan valued ng Qi very much, saying that she was extrely talented, second only to herself in the sect.
Lu Qingran wanted to turn her head to look at ng Qi, but rembered how her face looked like at this mont.
And Chu Tianfeng was also here…
She couldn’t understand. When they were attacked by that terrible devil beast, the young man obviously protected her with his own life, and carefully took care of herself. Her senior sisters all told her how the young man personally held her in his arm and brought her back to the sect. Why did Chu Tianfeng beco so scornful after she woke up?
“If there is nothing else…” ng Qi’s gaze swept the crowd “I’ll go back to my room.” ng Qi didn’t want to keep standing here and wasted even more ti. She had picked up both the book from Xue Jinwen and the jackdaw grass, and wanted to study them carefully.
“I, I’m leaving.” Lu Qingran left first.
Other disciples saw the commotion has over and also left one by one.
Chu Tianfeng took a deep look at ng Qi and said to the four Fentian Palace’s disciples: “You go first.” He stepped forward to ng Qi: “I have sothing to say to you.”
ng Qi’s steps paused.
Chu Tianfeng said quickly: “Your sect leader has agreed to our offer. After Elder Xun returns, the entire Qingfeng Valley will join our Fentian Palace.” He paused. “After that, Qingfeng Valley will beco a subordinate of Fentian Palace. Elder Xun and I have discussed it. You can enter the dical hall of Fentian Palace. The duties there are mainly to do dical research. Except for that, you are free to do anything you like in your free ti.”
“I’m going to Fentian City.” ng Qi said: “But I won’t join Fentian Palace.” She turned her head to look at Chu Tianfeng: “If Fentian Palace is willing to let travel together, I can pay spirit stones as the escort fee.”
“Why?” Chu Tianfeng frowned slightly.
“Just like how I charge for dical treatnt, it is normal for to pay for protection.” ng Qi said matter-of-factly: “I don’t like to owe any favor. It’s better for us to settle accounts properly.”
“You know I’m not asking about this.” Chu Tianfeng stared at ng Qi.
“I don’t know.” ng Qi was a little speechless. How could she never know that Chu Tianfeng was such a person? Where did the proud and cold young man gone? She preferred the forr Chu Tianfeng more.
