Chapter 169 Are you staying here because you are afraid that I can’t protect you?
"Why... are you transparent?" Qi Yu's eyes were full of confusion. The words he wanted to say were all suppressed by the shocking scene in front of him.
"I..." Ye Li saw that she had been exposed and didn't plan to continue pretending.
She took off her gloves and mask unhappily, and then threw them towards Qiming along with the crutches in her hand and the clothes on her body.
"I'll give them all to you..."
Almost at the same time as she threw away the clothes, Ye Li turned around and ran quickly behind her.
Hearing the footsteps gradually fading away, Qi Yu's heart began to panic. He quickly stepped forward and reached out to grab, but he couldn't even touch the edge of the clothes.
For some reason, he really didn't want to let that person leave. He always felt that person was very important to him.
"Qiming, chase her quickly, don't let her run away." Qi Yu shouted anxiously to the people who were standing there in a daze behind him.
"This..." A hint of hesitation flashed in Qiming's eyes. It was easy to catch ordinary people, but how could he catch a transparent person?
Although he complained like this in his heart, he still obediently ran forward along the street.
Qi Yu was about to raise his legs and chase in the direction where Ye Li left, but was stopped by a clear and pleasant shout from behind.
"Qi Yu! I just caught Sister Li, but she ran away again. You should find a way to find her with me as soon as possible."
At this time, Feng Ling quickly came over from behind him, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes when he saw Qi Yu.
"Have you seen...Li'er?" A light flashed across Qiyu's dim eyes.
"Well, but Sister Li seemed to have some secret method of invisibility. She took advantage of my unpreparedness and ran away, but using water seemed..." Feng Ling's tone was anxious. This might be the closest they had been to Sister Li in the past three months.
"What did you say? You said Li'er knows the secret method of invisibility?" Thinking back to the outrageous scene that just happened, Qi Yu's heart suddenly trembled.
Could it be that the person just now was actually Li'er, and this ring was handed to him by Li'er personally?
He just let Li'er leave in front of him like that, and Qi Yu's heart was in turmoil.
"Search quickly, block the city gates, and don't let a single bird out. There's still little time, and Sister Li will definitely not be able to escape." Feng Ling gave orders to the clansmen behind him.
Qi Yu kept turning the ring on his thumb, and the emerald green light flowed into Qi Yu's body along the point where the ring touched his skin, calming his equally anxious emotions.
"Wait a minute, the Teng Snake Empire is not our territory after all, so we can't just block the city gates whenever we want, not to mention we don't know exactly how many gates there are."
They still need to think about this matter carefully.
"Where did you meet Sister Li?" Qi Yu grabbed Feng Ling's arm, raised his eyes to look at Feng Ling, and asked.
"Teng Xi's mansion." After he finished speaking, Feng Ling's expression paused, and a trace of clarity flashed across his eyes.
"I think... Li'er should return to Tengxi's mansion, what do you think?"
Qi Yu and Feng Ling looked at each other and saw the same answer in each other's eyes.
At this time, Ye Li had already returned to the door of Tengxi's residence. Someone happened to be going out, and Ye Li quietly slipped in when the door was about to close.
She slipped towards the quiet bamboo forest, and just as she reached the door, she saw Teng Xi walking towards her from not far away.
Ye Li quickly climbed over the high wall. Perhaps because she was too anxious, the injury on her ankle, which had not yet healed, was sprained again.
Ye Li cursed inwardly, thinking that she should have checked the almanac carefully before going out today.
After taking a bottle of potion to remove the invisibility state, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Li tidied her clothes and opened the door calmly, "Master Teng Xi, you are here~"
"Where...have you been just now?" Teng Xi leaned over and sniffed Ye Li as soon as he entered the room. He smelled the scent of another male on Ye Li.
This made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Oops, I forgot that male orcs have extremely sensitive noses.
"I haven't gone anywhere. By the way, Master Tengxi, those people outside should have left."
Teng Xi stared at Ye Li deeply, his dark eyes flickering with light, as if he was having some ideological struggle.
After a long while, he sighed softly and said, "I'm leaving."
"You know someone is chasing you, yet you still dare to run outside. Are you staying here because you're afraid that I can't protect you?" Teng Xi said this with a bit of anger and sarcasm.
In Teng Xi's eyes, Feng Ling dragged a ball of air away. It was a completely self-directed and self-acted drama. He just wanted to take the opportunity to find out Ye Li's location.
Therefore, at the moment Feng Ling and the others left, Teng Xi did not come to find Ye Li immediately. He waited until he confirmed that Feng Ling and the others had really left before he dared to come to find Ye Li.
When he saw Ye Li was still in the room, he became more certain of his thoughts.
If the ball of air that Feng Ling was pulling was Ye Li, how could the latter still be standing in front of him?
However, he cared so much about Ye Li, but Ye Li was still afraid that he could not protect her... She was unhappy.
Seeing that Teng Xi's face was getting worse and worse, Ye Li hurriedly said to him,
"No, no, how could I not trust Master Teng Xi? Our Master Teng Xi's power is one of the best in the Teng Snake Empire."
Having said that, Teng Xi's expression eased a little, "Well, don't run around next time."
Teng Xi wanted to reach out and smooth down the hair on Ye Li's head, but just as he stretched his hand into the air, he pulled it back.
"I guess those people won't give up. How about this, we set off at night and leave through the secret passage." Teng Xi nodded, as if he thought what he said was feasible.
Ye Li's beautiful eyes, shining with watery light, blinked twice quickly. There is actually a secret passage in Teng Xi's mansion?
"This round trip will take almost half a month. I'm sure those people will have left by the time we return."
Ye Li nodded repeatedly, indicating her full agreement.
"This is for you. You can use it to protect yourself in the future." Teng Xi fumbled in his arms for a moment, then took out something that looked like a poisonous fang.
"This thing contains a special toxin I made. If you use it to scratch someone's skin, they will immediately become numb and unable to move."
"But you have to use it sparingly, because it's not easy to make. I've only succeeded in making two so far."
Hearing this, Ye Li's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she took it with both hands, her eyes full of gratitude.
"Thank you, Lord Tengxi~" It was worth it for her to treat Tengxi every day, and she still got something magical.
Teng Xi walked to the side and sat on a stone bench and poured himself a cup of tea. Ye Li followed him, but her foot was still injured, so it was inevitable that she walked a little strangely.
"What happened to your foot?"
