"Who are you? Leave quickly if you know what's good for you." One of the secret guards, not recognizing Mo Xuanye, immediately asked.
Feng Yi reacted and waved his sword. Those secret guards died beyond redemption.
Xiaoying and Xiaojin both heaved a sigh of relief when they saw this scene.
Xiaojin said with lingering fear, "This man is really powerful. Even his subordinate is so formidable."
Mo Xuanye quickly took out a pill and fed it to Feng Yuqin. A chilling and sinister aura emanated from his whole body. The menacing momentum that seemed to destroy the heavens and the earth made Feng Yi feel that someone was going to suffer.
Sure enough, the next second, Mo Xuanye's cold and blood - thirsty voice sounded, "Feng Yi, go and wipe out all those behind this."
"No... don't." Feng Yuqin endured the pain as if her internal organs were shattered and grabbed Mo Xuanye.
At the same time, he looked up at her. Just this one glance made Feng Yuqin stunned.
Because she actually saw a trace of regret and grief in his eyes.
Was it because she was injured and seeing things?
What she saw just now must have been an illusion, right?
"They hurt you. If I had been a bit later, you would have died." Mo Xuanye's hand holding her trembled slightly.
Although Feng Yuqin was injured, her perception was still there.
At this moment, she clearly felt that the man cared about her.
So, what she saw before was not an illusion.
Did he care about her or the original owner?
"Then... shall we still kill those behind this?" If it were someone else, Feng Yi might have just gone to execute the order.
But during this period, he was very aware of how important Feng Yuqin was in his master's heart, so he was a bit unsure.
Feng Yuqin closed her eyes and felt that her injury was recovering rapidly. Before, she had difficulty speaking, but within just a few breaths, she clearly felt that her spirit had improved a lot. At least, she didn't feel it was difficult to speak anymore.
She looked at Mo Xuanye and said, "I'll deal with my own enemies myself."
Although Feng Yuqin didn't know much about Mo Xuanye, from what he said just now, she understood that if Feng Yi took action, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Ji Family would probably be blood - stained.
She didn't want such an outcome.
Actually, even if Mo Xuanye hadn't come today, she wouldn't have been in mortal danger.
After all, she still had two divine beasts. At worst, the news about her divine beasts would be exposed.
"How are you going to deal with them? You almost lost your life this time." Mo Xuanye's voice carried a hint of anger, "Where are your divine beasts? Are they all dead? When their master is in trouble, they don't even come to help?"
Xiaoying and Xiaojin both shivered involuntarily when they saw Mo Xuanye getting angry.
This god of death was too scary!
"I didn't let them come out. After all, without full assurance that those secret guards would all die here, the fact that I have beast pets would be exposed. But I definitely wouldn't let myself be in mortal danger." Feng Yuqin said.
"Don't be brave when you encounter danger in the future. Just let your divine beasts come out. I'll take responsibility for anything that happens." Mo Xuanye saw that her injury had almost recovered after taking the pill, and only then did he feel relieved in his heart.
But thinking that she was injured and so seriously, his face still looked very ugly.
Xiaoying even added fuel to the fire in the space, "Master, he really cares about you."
Xiaojin was in a better mood because he sensed Feng Yuqin's injury was recovering. Hearing Xiaoying's words, he nodded repeatedly, "Master, the pill he gave you is a Grade - 7 Reviving Pill. This kind of pill can only be found in the Central Region and is extremely rare."
Hearing this, Feng Yuqin couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart.
From the very beginning, her attitude towards him had been bad, but he still pestered her. Now, he even saved her life.
She suddenly felt that she could no longer say the words of cutting off their relationship.
"Your injury hasn't fully recovered yet. I have a villa in the Western Song State. Do you want to go to my villa or go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Mo Xuanye didn't want her to go back because the Prime Minister's Mansion was a place that devoured people without spitting out the bones.
The reason he left suddenly when he was following her today was that Dongfang Zhi's people had investigated all of Feng Yuqin's deeds from childhood to adulthood.
He wanted to go back and take a look to know more about her. It was precisely because after reading that he felt she was in danger and rushed over. At the same time, he was also glad that he came in time.
But thinking about her more than ten years in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he just wanted to wipe out those who had hurt her.
And although he clearly had the ability to do so, she wanted to take revenge on her own. He knew she had her own pride, so he could only let her be.
Mo Xuanye never thought that one day he would care about someone's feelings.
In the past, when he was dissatisfied with something, he would just wipe it out without mercy.
"Go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Thinking of today's arrangements, a cold glint flashed in Feng Yuqin's eyes, "The secret guards sent by my scumbag father are so powerful. He must think I'm dead for sure. If I don't go back and let him see that I'm still alive, I'll be sorry for this assassination."
Although this was the result Mo Xuanye had expected, hearing her say it with his own ears, he frowned slightly.
Seeing him like this, Feng Yuqin's tone for the first time was no longer confrontational, "If something happens to me this time, I'll definitely let Xiaoying and Xiaojin come out to help. Didn't you say you would take responsibility? Why? Are you going back on your word so soon?"
Feng Yi was almost crying with excitement when he saw that Feng Yuqin's attitude towards his master had finally improved.
His master had it so hard. He had been chasing after Feng Yuqin for so long, and finally, there was the first step of progress.
At least she wasn't trying her best to distance their relationship but was willing to let Mo Xuanye protect her.
"Of course not." Mo Xuanye stared at her with his deep eyes and said, "Remember, you're my woman. No one can bully you, including yourself."
Feng Yuqin: "..." This man. He flirted with her out of the blue. Did he really think she wouldn't blush?
...
Mo Xuanye sent Feng Yuqin to the outside of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She didn't let him go any further.
"You can go back. I can handle it myself." Feng Yuqin said.
A look of worry flashed in Mo Xuanye's eyes, "Although your father's two most powerful secret guards are dead, as the prime minister for so many years, he can't only have these two secret guards in his hands."
Feng Yuqin nodded, "I know. I'll be careful."
She cherished her life so much that she wouldn't let anything happen to herself.
Although today's situation was a bit thrilling, if Mo Xuanye hadn't shown up at the last moment, her beast pets would have risked being exposed to save her.
Seeing her serious attitude, Mo Xuanye nodded and said, "Go."
Feng Yuqin glanced at him. She couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart. Then she turned around and walked towards the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After returning to the mansion, Feng Yuqin didn't go back to her own courtyard but went straight to the main courtyard, to Feng Pingqiu's study.
If her estimate was correct, Feng Pingqiu must be waiting in the study for the news of her death.
However, before she even reached the main courtyard, the news of her return had already spread to the main courtyard.
"What did you say? Feng Yuqin is back?" Hearing the butler's report, Feng Pingqiu subconsciously stood up and asked.
"Yes, Prime Minister. The eldest miss is coming towards the main courtyard." The butler was a subordinate of the second wife. Regarding the ambush of Feng Yuqin tonight, although he didn't know all the details, he knew roughly what had happened. So, when he heard that Feng Yuqin had returned safely, he quickly came to report.
