Chapter 170 I don't care. If Li Bao doesn't sign a partner contract with me today, don't even think about leaving here.

"What's wrong with your foot?" Teng Xi lowered his head and stared at Ye Li's ankle, his handsome eyebrows tightly frowned.

Following Teng Xi's gaze, Ye Li discovered that her right ankle was much more swollen than her left.

She said why it hurts so much...

Ye Li waved her hand at Teng Xi and said, "It's just a small matter. I just sprained my ankle accidentally. It will be fine after a little treatment."

After saying this, Ye Li bent down and prepared to use her healing ability on herself.

But before Ye Li bent down, Teng Xi squatted down first.

He took out a small round iron box from his arms, then held up Ye Li's ankle and applied a cooling ointment on it.

Ye Li wanted to pull her ankle back, but was stopped by Teng Xi's bland and cold words.

"Don't move."

The cool feeling penetrated her skin, and Ye Li soon felt less painful.

"Lord Tengxi, there's no need to go through so much trouble." She could really cure it with just one healing spell.

Ye Li could be described as flattered by Teng Xi's action. She remembered that Teng Xi's subordinates said that he had mysophobia?

Is this... mysophobia cured?

After Teng Xi smeared ointment on Ye Li's swollen ankle, he put away the medicine box in his hand.

"Don't be so careless next time."

Hearing this, Ye Li nodded repeatedly and said, "Master Teng Xi is right."

"I don't want to teach you a lesson, just be careful." Teng Xi sat back on the stone bench, his fingers tapping on the table, his eyes lowered in thought.

"Please pack up in a while. We will set off when the sun sets."

Teng Xi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the rapid knock on the door.

"My lord, are you there? My lord, there are uninvited guests outside the door again, and...their number has doubled."

The servant outside the door was chattering in an anxious tone. The last time he saw such a scene was when a mansion was ransacked.

"Alright, alright, stop knocking. It's so noisy. Didn't I tell you to be cautious in everything you do? Next time, only knock twice. Otherwise, you can't work in my house anymore."

The servant outside the door immediately fell silent, then barely suppressed the turmoil in his heart and said loudly,

"Sir, go check it out. The people outside the door said that if you don't hand over their little female, they will just break in."

What their little females, have they started to lie when hunting people down in this era.

"This is too much." Teng Xi slammed the door hard, anger dancing in his eyes, "You think there's no one in my house, right?"

"Go call Teng Ze over now, and ask him to call back Teng Feng and his men. I want to see if the group of people outside the door really have the strength and courage to force their way in."

After saying this, Teng Xi waved his sleeves vigorously and stepped over the threshold.

But after taking two steps, he retreated again.

"Don't run outside again this time, okay?" After Teng Xi and Ye Li gave a few instructions, he personally locked the gate to Ye Li's courtyard.

Hearing the sound of the door being locked outside, Ye Li looked up at the towering city wall. In fact, she didn't have to go through the door if she wanted to go out.

However... the divination skills of the priest beside Feng Ling are really powerful. If he continues to stay in this courtyard, it is probably only a matter of time before he is discovered.

Ye Li suddenly had an idea and thought of a question, "Yi Yi, if I hide in the space, can the priest still measure it?"

[Then the host cannot be measured. The system's space can block the power of measurement, just like disappearing from this world out of thin air. ]

However, if it is a higher-level priest, he can calculate the last location where Ye Li left. Of course, there are almost no priests of this level.

Hearing this, Ye Li felt much calmer.

If the priest calculated that he was no longer here, he would surely leave quickly and look somewhere else.

At the moment Ye Li entered the space, at the entrance of Tengxi Mansion...

The atmosphere here was exceptionally solemn and quiet. The two warring parties stared at each other, with raging flames of war burning in their eyes.

The situation was tense, as if the two sides would fight to the death at the first order.

The timid servant held the sword in his hand, his legs trembling and his eyes full of panic.

The lowest level of cultivation among the people sent by the other side was at the peak of level seven. He was a rookie whose cultivation level was less than level six and was just here to make up the numbers.

In his heart, he kept praying that there would be no fighting, no fighting.

Even if a fight breaks out, can he let him hide first?

The Beast God seemed to have heard his sincere voice, and the next moment the people outside the door suddenly retracted their weapons, as if they were about to withdraw.

"Priest, are you sure Sister Li is no longer here?" A trace of regret flashed across Feng Ling's eyes. He bit his lips lightly, unwilling to miss it.

"Well, I have divined several times, and the hexagrams all show that Her Majesty the Phoenix Queen is no longer here."

The priest kept confirming his own hexagram, but no matter from which angle he explained it, Ye Li was no longer here.

"Li'er is not here anymore? Feng Ling, is your priest's calculations really accurate?" Qi Yu didn't want to believe this fact at all.

The priest was immediately displeased when his divination ability was questioned. He angrily said,

"I have been a priest for decades, and I have performed thousands of divinations. My accuracy rate is as high as 99.9%. You cannot question my ability..."

Qi Yu's eyes gradually dimmed. If Ye Li was still here, he would still have a little hope in his heart, but now she is gone...

Qi Yu's drooping palms slowly tightened and kept trembling... Why...

...In the space...

"Libao, you haven't come to see me for many days. I miss you so much~"

As soon as Ye Li entered the space, Jiu Ci gave her a bear hug.

“Libao, Libao, I don’t understand, I don’t understand, I don’t think this is fair to me…” Jiu Ci shook Ye Li’s shoulders vigorously, venting his dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Don't shake it, Cibao. Tell me what you don't understand?" Ye Li held Jiuci's hand and squeezed it, then raised her eyes and looked into those deep purple eyes full of grievance.

"Why does that mermaid also have your partner mark on her body? Why does he have it and I don't? Why is this happening?"

Jiu Ci pursed his lips lightly, his eyes full of accusation, it was obvious that he and Ye Li had known each other for many times longer than that mermaid.

But Ye Li signed a partnership contract with the mermaid instead of him.

That's why. He likes Ye Li no less than that mermaid.

"Lili, you're here." His dark blue eyes were filled with anticipation, joy, and cautious temptation, and he slowly moved towards Ye Li.

On his wrists were still the handcuffs that Ye Li had put on him personally.

Although the key was on him, he didn't dare to unlock the handcuffs on his wrists without Ye Li's permission.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you still wearing..."

Jiu Ci was very dissatisfied when he noticed that Yu Sheng had attracted Ye Li's attention. He grabbed Ye Li's hand and pulled her to a hidden place, then pressed Ye Li directly under him.

"I don't care. Today I must sign a partnership contract with Libao, otherwise you will never leave here."

Jiu Ci finally understood that he had to fight for opportunities himself. If he wanted to wait for Ye Li to take the initiative, he didn't know how long he would have to wait.
