Chapter 312: Underhanded Tricks

Feng Xingzhi stood still on the spot, his hands turning cold.

He couldn't figure out why Ji Yunxi would be here. But suddenly, a fragrant scent mixed with the smell of blood slowly wafted out.

It was the unique scent on Ji Yunxi's body.

Without hesitation, he took a big step forward, rushed out, and hugged Ji Yunxi. He asked anxiously, "Xixi?! What happened? How did you get so badly injured?"

When Ji Yunxi saw him appear, a flicker of an indecipherable emotion flashed in her eyes. Then, with a hint of grievance and weakness, she said, "Azhi, I never received a reply from you. I was afraid something had happened to you, so I came here with Jing Weiwei and some others."

With concern in her eyes, she seemed not to care about her own injuries and just wanted to see if there was anything wrong with Feng Xingzhi.

"Azhi, I'm glad to see you're safe and sound."

Feng Xingzhi felt a strange feeling in his heart. Ji Yunxi was a strong - willed woman, but now she seemed rather tender and sentimental.

However, this thought flashed through his mind and was quickly forgotten. The strong smell of blood irritated his nose. Even if he had some doubts, he didn't have time to think about them now.

Feng Xingzhi was about 80% convinced by her. He didn't care about anything else and just wanted to treat her injuries whole - heartedly.

He helped her onto the couch in the inner room. Worried that someone might suddenly barge in and interrupt his rescue, he set up a barrier.

He turned around and went back to the couch. He reached out his hand to feel Ji Yunxi's pulse, but he felt that her pulse was extremely erratic.

Such an injury was probably not just caused by the blood - filled hole in her shoulder.

"Xixi, hold on." He gently helped her sit in a cross - legged position. Streams of divine power slowly flowed out of his hands and into Ji Yunxi's body.

His divine power was rather overbearing. Ji Yunxi felt as if her whole body was on fire, but she couldn't speak or even open her eyes, for fear that opening her mouth would ruin the plan.

But the uncontrollable look of pain on her face made Feng Xingzhi extremely nervous, and his face became more and more solemn.

Finally, the divine power found the right place and rushed forward all at once. It was like patching up a leak, gradually filling the huge hole in Ji Yunxi's body.

As time passed by second by second, it was still quiet outside. Feng Xingzhi was also curious why Jing Weiwei and the others hadn't made any moves?

He withdrew his hand. Since her injury was very serious, after he had treated most of her internal injuries, he himself was exhausted.

Ji Yunxi looked worried. She reached out and took Feng Xingzhi's hand. "Azhi, are you okay? Your face looks so pale."

Feng Xingzhi endured his weakness and forced a smile. "Don't worry. I'm fine."

He stood up with difficulty and covered Ji Yunxi with the quilt. "The most important thing now is you. You should rest first. You still need some external medicine for the injury on your shoulder. I don't have any on me. I'll go out and look for some now. You can just stay here at ease."

Ji Yunxi nodded, and then her eyes followed him. She saw him walk to the door and slowly open a crack to look outside.

The quiet moonlight shone on the courtyard, making the entire Jiang Mansion seem to be detached from the secular world.

Feng Xingzhi felt a bit uneasy. Such a large courtyard was so quiet. The Jiang Mansion was so big; there should be people around.

Ji Yunxi glanced sideways from the couch, and there was a hint of expectation in her eyes.

Feng Xingzhi quietly removed the barrier and walked outside, intending to go out to find external medicine. Although Ji Yunxi's internal injuries were no longer a big problem, her external injuries still needed to be treated.

However, just as he removed the barrier and hadn't taken a single step, a puff of powder came straight at his face. It was obviously the smell of a sleeping drug.

He was greatly shocked. He thought something was wrong and quickly closed the door and stepped back.

Ji Yunxi was also startled when she saw him retreat. "Azhi? What's wrong?"

"Someone is using a sleeping drug!" he exclaimed. He kept waving his hand in front of his face, trying to make the powder on his face disappear quickly.

Hearing this, Ji Yunxi struggled to get out of bed and staggered towards Feng Xingzhi. She took out a porcelain bottle. "Azhi, this is the Breath - Condensing Pill. Take it quickly."

Knowing that Ji Yunxi had a lot of medicine, Feng Xingzhi took it without suspicion.

He sat in a cross - legged position to regulate his breath and tried to activate the medicine he had swallowed. However, in just a moment, he suddenly felt dizzy and weak in his limbs.

Feeling a bit uneasy, he looked at Ji Yunxi in shock.

"You?"

Could it be that, as Lu Shu had said, it was all a trap?

But was it really necessary to set up a trap over lifetimes?

And what about everything in Yunqi Palace? She was the most capable person in Yunqi Palace. Why would she covet his divine power?

As his mind gradually cleared, Feng Xingzhi suddenly thought of the abnormality of her appearance. Although she was really injured, Jing Weiwei and the others had never appeared. It was all just her words.

Lying on the ground, he finally realized that he had fallen into a trap. Feng Xingzhi's eyes turned cold, filled with hatred.

It seemed that the sleeping drug was just a guise, and the real trick was this unknown pill!

He lay on the ground, trying to clench his fists, but he couldn't. His limbs were too weak.

Ji Yunxi suddenly stood up straight, and the previous weakness slowly disappeared from her face.

"Who are you really?"

"Ji Yunxi" suddenly smiled. There was a bit of bitterness in her heart. Even though she was wearing that person's face, Feng Xingzhi never suspected her at all.

They seemed to firmly believe that the other would never do such things, which made her feel uncomfortable.

"Xingzhi, even when you see her face, you never doubt her at all?"

As "Ji Yunxi" spoke, she slowly peeled off a mask from her face. The human - skin mask fit perfectly with her face. As it was slowly peeled off, the skin on her face was also being torn.

The gradually revealed face was Jiang Yaoji.

When Feng Xingzhi saw Jiang Yaoji's face in front of him, he immediately realized that everything just now was a pre - arranged trap.

Jiang Yaoji had really gone to great lengths. She even specifically found a way to get the perfume.

There was a bit of sadness in Jiang Yaoji's eyes. She came in front of Feng Xingzhi and squatted down. "Xingzhi, is she really that trustworthy?"

Feng Xingzhi looked at her coldly. "No matter how much you try to imitate, you'll never be like her."

Jiang Yaoji snorted. "Who wants to be like her! Jiang Yin, come in!"

Hearing his master call him, Jiang Yin, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, immediately walked in with a smile on his face. "Master."

Jiang Yaoji, wearing Ji Yunxi's clothes, looked down at Feng Xingzhi lying on the ground. "Have you taken care of Jing Weiwei and the others?"

Jiang Yin lowered his head. "Master, don't worry. They're all in the dungeon. Everything has been taken care of."

Jiang Yaoji was very satisfied and showed a smile. "Well done."
