Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 420 - 419: Why is her token on you?

Chapter 420: Chapter 419: Why is her token on you?

"Is it you?" Chu Qianli gasped for air, nearly scared to death.

It was actually Feng Yexuan!

"How are you here?"

Just now, the silver needle almost hit him.

But that’s not right, with his high martial arts skills, how could her silver needle possibly hit him?

Yet, it really almost injured him by mistake.

Luckily, he recognized her, otherwise, with his martial arts, how difficult would it be to kill her?

If he hadn’t transferred his energy to her, it would have been a matter of lifting a finger.

Even after giving her his energy, now, it would just be lifting his fingers a few more times, easy for him!

Just as Chu Qianli was about to say something, suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind.

He... had once given her his energy?

Chu Qianli furrowed her brows, her head suddenly throbbing with pain.

Subconsciously, she raised her hand and pressed hard against her head.

"What’s the matter?" Feng Yexuan stared at her face, why was her little face all twisted up, as if in great pain?

"I think... I remembered something, my head... it hurts." Chu Qianli tapped her head, the sharp pain still not dissipating.

A barely audible sigh arose from above her head.

She was somewhat surprised and looked up, but there was no ripple in his eyes.

Was that sigh really from him?

It didn’t seem like it.

Why would he sigh?

"Someone’s coming!" Feng Yexuan suddenly stretched out his hand and yanked her over, "Don’t talk!"

Chu Qianli immediately became alert, instantly concealing all her breath.

Indeed, people were arriving outside.

A group of men halted right outside the cave.

Someone was speaking, "My lord, it should be here."

My lord? It sounded like people from the Imperial Court.

Chu Qianli looked up instinctively, not knowing why, but when she encountered problems, she subconsciously wanted to see Feng Yexuan’s expression.

To know what he was thinking.

Feng Yexuan wasn’t looking at her, his focused gaze at the cave entrance.

The arm wrapped around her waist tightened once more, his tall frame slightly turning to completely shield her in his arms.

Chu Qianli looked down and immediately blushed.

The two of them were so close!

She wanted to move back, but the people outside were about to come in; any slight movement now could easily reveal them.

Sure enough, the man addressed as my lord ordered in a deep voice, "Go in and check!"

"Yes!"

Imperial Guards!

Just as the first two men entered, Feng Yexuan, holding Chu Qianli, leaped up.

Chu Qianli felt a bit panicky as they hung directly from the cave’s ceiling.

This man! So incredible!

Holding her with one hand, he could press silently against the cave ceiling with palm force, his legs and one hand as if nailed firmly above.

If it were her, without any support, she certainly couldn’t do it.

But now, the two of them were even more tightly pressed together!

Especially since she had to hold tightly onto his waist, or else she feared she might drop at any moment!

This position... if the situation wasn’t so dire, she might suspect this scoundrel was intentionally taking advantage of her.

But, scoundrel... why would such a strange term appear in her mind?

Below, after the two Imperial Guards entered, they quickly discovered the hole beside the stone bed.

"My lord, there’s a hidden cave inside."

The man riding the horse outside immediately leaped from the horse’s back and hurriedly walked in.

Chu Qianli raised her head, and this time, finally met Feng Yexuan’s gaze.

The Emperor’s envoy?

She asked with her eyes.

Feng Yexuan nodded slightly, his gaze sliding over her face, then returned to focusing on the situation below.

The group of Imperial Guards was discussing how to enter the second cave.

Chu Qianli was genuinely worried; how much longer could Feng Yexuan hold out?

Now, he was using the full force of his palm to firmly attach his body to the cave ceiling’s rock wall.

If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, Chu Qianli wouldn’t have believed that someone in this world could possess such martial arts prowess.

But what if he couldn’t hold on much longer and suddenly fell?

And what was inside that second hidden cave?

She looked up at Feng Yexuan again.

Feeling her gaze upon him, Feng Yexuan’s eyes locked back onto her, staring: What do you want to ask now?

Chu Qianli blinked her eyes.

That cave inside, have you been there before? What’s inside?

Feng Yexuan didn’t speak, the distance was too close; speaking out loud would definitely be overheard by the people below.

"You two stay here, the rest follow me down to take a look!" the superior issued the command.

Aside from two guards who stayed put, the others immediately scrambled into the small cave entrance, entering the second cave.

Chu Qianli also wanted to take a look and couldn’t help but slightly tilt her body.

She had originally wanted to get a clearer view of the cave inside but accidentally touched a Token hanging from Feng Yexuan’s waist.

The small Token seemed to carry an air of ancient times.

For some reason, she suddenly felt a strong urge to see what Token it was.

Her hand unconsciously released his waist, reaching for the Token.

Feng Yexuan’s eyes darkened, and he tightened his arms, hugging her close.

Chu Qianli then realized that even if she didn’t hold onto him, she wouldn’t fall.

This man’s strength was formidable.

Her face inexplicably flushed red.

Although she felt a bit uncomfortable, it was an emergency after all, and it wasn’t like she was deliberately creating a romantic ambiance.

Safety first.

Still, she couldn’t resist, pulling the Token off Feng Yexuan’s waist.

Feng Yexuan actually didn’t stop her... Why did it feel like she was being indulged?

Chu Qianli quickly shook her head, refusing to think about these bizarre thoughts.

What indulgence? She had decided to stay by Wuya’s side for life, so Feng Yexuan was their Loyal Brother!

He was Loyal Brother! Practically an elder!

She mustn’t think about such unnecessary affairs! Absolutely not!

She looked down and, by the faint light coming in from outside, finally made out the characters on the Token.

Dragon?

An inexplicable tension seized her heart.

She flipped the Token over, and upon closer inspection, in that moment, every vein in her body tightened, her mouth slightly agape, she almost cried out in shock.

Feng Yexuan immediately covered her lips.

But with this gesture, both his hands had released the rock wall, and the two of them began to fall.

"Mmh..." Chu Qianli’s eyes widened in alarm.

The two guards at the cave entrance immediately heard the noise.

Just as they were about to react, two soft "pfft" sounds filled the air; Feng Yexuan had just neutralized their acupoints from a distance.

To avoid alarming the people in the second cave, Feng Yexuan immediately wrapped his arms around Chu Qianli, and right after landing, sprang up again, swiftly rushing out of the cave.

Chu Qianli didn’t have a chance to push him away; in a flash, he had already carried her away from the cave, skimming over the treetops for quite a while before they finally landed steadily on the ground.

The moment their feet touched ground, Chu Qianli pushed him away and urgently asked, "Why do you have Long Xiyue’s Token on you?"
