Chapter 45

  Night, quiet, with a hint of coolness.

  Feng Qi buried himself completely under the quilt, and although Sakura was very annoying, his scent was really nice! The whole quilt was filled with his sweet fragrance, which was intoxicating.

  Just then, in a half-dreaming state, she faintly felt a chill on the back of her neck. She was suddenly startled and turned around to grab the hand that was wandering around her neck. With a "brush" sound, she opened her eyes wide and slapped the unknown person with all her might.

  This guy has a big nerve, he actually dares to come back. That Blood guy is really something, how could he still let people in? It's truly too arrogant!

  At the same time, the other person hastily grasped her hand that was slapped out with all her might, but was startled by the icy cold intent in her eyes. The newcomer hastily said: "Don't be anxious, it's me..."

  A familiar voice made Feng Qi's evil heart skip a beat, and he immediately used the weak light to see who was coming. Suddenly, his heart relaxed, and he blamed: "How did you come?"

  Really, don't you see what kind of place this is? Rushing in like this, aren't you afraid of being caught?

  "This doesn't suit you, I couldn't sleep without you." A certain drunk person said with a gentle smile, then immediately turned serious and hid the anger in their tone: "It's only been so long since we parted ways, how did you end up like this?"

  Feng Qi's eyes widened in surprise, and as he followed the gaze, he only discovered that he was bandaging his own neck wound. No wonder it felt cool and refreshing, it turned out that he was applying medicine to himself!

  Although some blamed him for his reckless behavior of breaking into the Fengyuan, watching him gently bandage his wound made her heart feel a warmth that she couldn't help but smile and say: "It's nothing, just an accidental scratch."

  Accidentally?

  Although she didn't believe him, he couldn't ask more since she didn't say anything. He carefully bandaged her wound with a gentle touch, his eyes filled with deep affection that was hard to conceal, making one's heart skip a beat.

  Feng Qi's eyes were met with his gaze, causing her heart to flutter and her eyes to dart back and forth, not daring to meet his gaze. She hastily said, "Alright! I'm fine now, you can leave first!"

  If that Sakura guy sees it tomorrow, there will be a big fuss about some stranger breaking into the Houin Manor, who knows what kind of trouble will arise!

  She's absolutely a troublemaker, she just arrived at Fengyuan and doesn't want to stir up more trouble! As a person, it's better to be low-key, isn't it?

  Upon hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed across Huo Zui's eyes. This dead girl, was she really that unwelcoming to him? He had risked his life and endured hardship to sneak into the Phoenix Institute just to see her, fearing that she would be bullied as a newcomer. But he never expected her to be so ungrateful; it was truly excessive!

  A red glow flashed in his eyes, and he immediately pinned Feng Qiuxia to the bed, his face icy cold: "You don't want to see me that much? Hurrying to drive me away?"

  "I..." No words came out, only a deep and passionate gaze upwards, her heart racing with anxiety. She didn't know what was wrong with herself? Even in her past life when facing her own ruthless fiancé, she hadn't felt this way.

  Her slender hand inadvertently covered her chest, where her heartbeat was very irregular and chaotic. At this time, she was pressed down on the bed by Huo Zui, leaning so close to him that she could feel his slightly cold breath. She couldn't help but pause, what's wrong with him? Was he angry?

  Feng Qi's dazed gaze in Huo Zui's eyes was undoubtedly a tacit agreement to his words. Suddenly, flames rose in her heart, and with a flash of cold light in her eyes, she pressed her lips onto his red lips.

  "Hmm..."

  Feng Qi's eyes widened in shock, her pupils dilating silently. Suddenly, a chill ran down her spine - what was this kid going to do now? Was he going to have another episode? Her slender hand moved, ready to push him away, but Huo Zui seemed to anticipate her resistance and took the initiative to grab her wrist, pinning it against his forehead. His lips pressed down on hers with a sudden burst of force, delivering a punitive bite to her lip.

  Wow!

  Feng Qi's eyes widened as he sucked in a breath of cold air, the faint scent of blood wafting from his lips, and sparks dancing in his eyes. This guy was too savage! Was he a beast? He was so bloody!

  She struggled with all her might, but the natural difference in strength between men and women made it impossible for her to break free. Feng Qi's eyes were filled with deep emotions and desire as he deepened their kiss, making her feel dizzy and disoriented, unable to distinguish what was happening around her.

  Damn it, this guy is indeed a demon, facing his stunningly handsome face that makes people breathless, the self who has always been in control, under his passionate kiss, almost lost himself! It's simply going to cost someone their life.

  And Hu Zui, a kiss on her soft lips, as if kissing the poppy of life and death, couldn't let go no matter what. The originally hidden anger in his eyes was gradually replaced by desire due to the deepening kiss, and his hands began to misbehave, tightly attached to Feng Qiuye's body, causing a strong reaction.

  Phoenix Seven's sensitive perception caught on! Her whole body trembled, and she knew that if things continued like this, it would end in disaster. No matter how much she was enchanted by love, she couldn't forget the existence of the heavenly rules between them now. She was still young, and her body was too immature to withstand passion. Moreover, there were many things to be done, and she didn't want to die prematurely!

  As soon as she lifted her slender foot, she wanted to be rude to this shameless little brat.

  Just as Feng Qi was considering whether to kick the little guy flying, Huo Zui whispered softly in her ear: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

  The foot that kicked out, stiffened in mid-air, after a deep kiss, Huo Zui lay down beside her, and with a gentle touch on the tip of her nose, he said: "Sleep tight, before I figure out how to break that damned Heavenly Rule, I won't move you. But for this lifetime, you can only be Huo Zui's woman, don't even think about other men, got it? Otherwise, they'll all have to die."

  Feng Qi's eyes rolled in exasperation, this guy was being too overbearing! She could only be his woman for this life, but she hadn't even agreed yet!

  However, the rebellious consciousness in her heart was not severe, it's just... Feng Qi furrowed her brow, thinking of her plan to get Long Dan next, and she couldn't help but hesitate.

  Looking deeply at Huo Zui, she said with an extremely serious expression: "Zui, do you believe me?"

  He was taken aback, not understanding why she would ask him so seriously. But his mind involuntarily recalled a sentence from Yin Yue: If you want to go further with the young lady, for a longer time, then you must remember that no matter what happens in the future, as long as you believe in the young lady, she will definitely not disappoint you.

  Yes, he gave up his life for her time and again, entrusting everything to her. What else couldn't be trusted? He nodded slightly, very cautiously.

  Upon seeing this, Feng Qiujue smiled softly! At the moment, she gently grasped his hand and said seriously: "Zui, you must believe me. No matter what I do, there are my own reasons and unavoidable difficulties. But here, I can say one thing - no matter what I do, I will never betray you, okay?"

  Her eyes sparkled faintly, and upon hearing her say this, a sense of unease crept up his heart, causing him to furrow his brow: "Are you going to do something that will wrong me, which is why you're telling me all this?"

  This guy, how can his intuition be so accurate?

  Feng Qi's face was slightly sweaty, and he smiled dryly: "How... how could that be? I'm afraid of what might happen in the future..."

  "Feng Qiye, you'd better tell me clearly. If I find out later that you've done something unforgivable to me, don't blame me for being ruthless." Huo Zui said in a low voice, his eyes serious.

  He can trust her, but she must tell him before doing anything.

  Feng Qi's mouth twitched, she really wanted to get rid of the devil inside him, so she had to refine the Fumo Dan. However, one of the medicinal materials needed for the Fumo Dan was the hard-to-get Longdan, and whether the legendary Dragon Hole Realm existed or not was still a question. So she had to enter the Long family to inquire about the truth, but... thinking of Huo Zui's strong possessiveness and knowing that she was engaged to Long Yuqiao, she hesitated again!

  To get into the Long family without arousing anyone's suspicion, the best way is to marry into the Long family! However, if he really told her about this matter, I'm afraid he would rather choose to be swallowed by that demon than let her enter the Long family in that way to find the Dragon Gallbladder to save him.

  If he opposed it, what should she do? Give up entering the Long family and searching for the Dragon Gallbladder to refine the Demon-Suppressing Dan for him?

  No, she can't do that! She absolutely cannot watch him being devoured by the demon inside him and then watch him become a demon to harm others. She can't afford to lose him, so no matter what, using whatever means necessary, she must enter the Dragon family.

  "Say it! Promise me that you won't do anything to make me sad, and I swear that no matter what you do, I'll always believe in you." Feng Qi saw that Qīzi was pouting with her small mouth shut tight, and urged her anxiously.

  Feng Qi heard this and was shocked. Wouldn't he be heartbroken if she didn't let him do something that would hurt his feelings? Then, would he be heartbroken if she chose to marry into the Long family?

  Her eyes sparkled slightly, recalling his intense reaction when he knew she was engaged to another man. She chose silence on this matter, which must not be revealed to him first, or it would lead to trouble.

  "I'm so sleepy, I'll sleep first!" As soon as the words fell, Feng Qiujie closed her eyes and fell asleep.

  "Feng Qi Xie, wake up for me, can you hear me? You have to promise me, you absolutely cannot do anything that will make me sad, do you understand? Promise me..." The more he saw her reaction, the stronger the unease in Huo Zui's heart grew. Although he didn't know what she was about to do, his intuition told him that with Qi Xie's personality, the words she spoke earlier wouldn't be empty warnings. Something he wouldn't like must be about to happen, so he shook Feng Qi Xie somewhat childishly, hoping to get her guarantee.

  But no matter how hard Huo Zui shook him, Feng Qiujie remained motionless with his eyes tightly shut, pretending to be dead. This guy was impossible to reason with, it seemed that they could only take things one step at a time!

  And besides, wanting to enter the Long family, she still hasn't figured out how to do it now. Who should she start with?

  However, no matter what she does, she must first get rid of Huo Zui. Otherwise, not only will she be unable to find the Dragon's Cave and the Dragon Gall, but she might also end up making an enemy of the Long family.

  Although she doesn't care, before her own strength becomes strong, she doesn't want to make too many enemies, otherwise it will bring disaster to the Phoenix tribe sooner or later. If it were in the past, even if she provoked a great calamity, she could just walk away with a flick of her sleeve, but now that her feelings for Feng Fei and others have deepened, and Feng Zhuti is also good to her, so she can't let them fall into danger.

  And she has practiced the Feng Zhi Can Juan, isn't she supposed to protect the Phoenix Clan? So it's even more impossible for her to act without considering the consequences!

  So, to be on the safe side, she still needs to be careful and cautious. Any slight mistake cannot be made. At the same time, the current master of the Yulanshan sect, Yu Liufang, that old lecher has already set his sights on her. If she can marry into the Long family, before her own strength becomes powerful, getting such a free bodyguard is not necessarily a bad thing!

  Thinking so, Feng Qiuxia unknowingly fell into a dreamland.

  Huozui shook for half a day beside her, seeing Feng Qiniang's steady breathing, knowing she had really fallen asleep! He couldn't help but feel indignant, this dead girl, actually not answering his question and falling asleep on her own! How detestable.

  However, when he saw Feng Qiniang's pale little face and the wound on her neck, he couldn't help but soften his heart again! He couldn't bear to disturb her anymore, she had been tired all day, so let her sleep first! As for the promise he wanted, he would eventually get it from her mouth.

  As he thought about it, Huo Zui's heart also felt more at ease. He lay down beside her and gently pulled her into his arms. Feng Qiuhuang softly murmured, perhaps because the night was too cool, she instinctively sought warmth and burrowed into his chest, finding a comfortable position before falling fast asleep.

  That night, she slept unusually soundly, probably the most stable sleep since her rebirth through body-borrowing. Who knows if it's because there's an expert guarding her by her side?

  Hehe!

  At dawn, Feng Qiniang was startled awake by a shrill and ear-piercing howl.

  "Feng Qiye, you damned girl, come out and die quickly."

  That sound, so loud and piercing, like thunder, made the roof shake. Feng Qiujian opened his eyes in a daze, still somewhat unclear, and asked blankly: "What's going on? Is there a fire?"

  "Damn it, who the hell is yelling so early in the morning? It's really annoying! I'm going to go kill him."

  Just as Feng Qi was still reacting to what had happened, Huo Zui suddenly jumped out of bed with a "whoosh" sound, his movements smooth and effortless, looking extremely cool.

  Who is this blind kid who dares to wake him up from his beloved evil sleep, as if he's tired of living! Doesn't want to mix anymore!

  Feng Qi heard the voice and was shocked, hastily pulling back the drunk who wanted to rush out and extinguish the fire, saying: "Zui, that's my mentor, you can't act rashly."

  Moreover, most importantly, he cannot let Sakurato discover that there is someone in this room, and it's a man who broke into the Fengyuan without permission. At the same time, if Huozui sees Sakurato's handsome appearance, who knows what she'll think of her! She doesn't want to get herself into trouble!

  Mentor?

  Her eyebrows slightly raised, flashing a hint of displeasure: "Your mentor? Sounds quite young!"

  His tone was tinged with a hint of sourness, making his whole demeanor somewhat eccentric. Feng Qi couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth and hastily said, "You're all uncles now! Can't be considered young anymore."

  This kid, why is he so sensitive? He's going to eat all the vinegar of a man! It's really infuriating! (Although... cough, she and that Sakura guy did have some ambiguous relationship, but that was an accident, okay? She didn't mean to.)

  Just thinking about last night's misunderstanding made Feng Qini want to grit her teeth.

  Feng Qixia's expression was somewhat unnatural, and Hu Zui's eyes narrowed dangerously. He became even more curious about the uncle-level instructor. With a wave of his hand, he tried to brush off Feng Qixia's hand, wanting to go out and take a look at what kind of person that instructor was.

  For anyone who could become a threat to him, it's better to strangle them in the cradle. The evil child is his, and no one else should think about touching him.

  Just as he was about to leave, the door was suddenly pushed open and a sharp voice rang out: "Uncle level? Feng Qiexia, is your master that old?"

  Feng Qi's eyes widened in shock, she hadn't expected this guy to barge in without her permission. This was... too unbecoming of a mentor! (Cough cough, with tears in her eyes, she added) By the way, in someone's opinion - namely Tong's - this was his room, wasn't it? So why would he need to ask for anyone else's opinion before entering his own room?

  At this moment, Feng Qi was extremely unhappy and wanted to say a few words to that guy, but at the same time, he discovered that the atmosphere was very wrong. The coldness was palpable, and there were even sparks flying everywhere. As he looked up, he found that Sakura and Huo Zui had entered through the door and were staring at each other, but the temperature in their eyes was enough to freeze people to death. At the same time, they shot out various "eye daggers" that slashed and killed in mid-air.

  Feng Qi's eyes involuntarily shuddered with a chill, instinctively feeling that the situation was extremely dangerous, and she instinctively wanted to slip away.

  She quickly got dressed, quietly lifted the quilt and got out of bed, planning to leave this place first. Neither of them were good people, it was better for her not to get involved in between.

  Just as she was about to quietly slip away, her footsteps were stopped by Sakurato's cold shout: "Who is he? Why is he in the Phoenix Courtyard?"

  Most importantly, why was he in his room and looking like that, shouldn't he have spent the night with his disciple who had just entered the hospital and had a good impression of him on his bed?

  It's really too much! Sakuragi's entire face turned black at once!
