Chapter 61
Li Yue'er's eyes flickered open. The strange surroundings instantly made her pupils tingling coldly as she abruptly stood up.
Her movement startled everyone, making Long feng and Lord Yi Ming to rise as well.
"Where am I!" Li yu'er asked. Her cold eyes scanned around and seeing Long Feng, she calmed down slightly. Her gaze then paused on Lord Yi Ming.
"Who are you?" She asked coldly.
"Miss Li, this is my master, Lord Yi Ming. He helped us to suppress the thing this time. We couldn't do it." Long feng explained.
Li yu'er's hands touched her face and she frowned.
Long feng quickly knew that she was feeling for her veil and he scratched his head awkwardly.
"Yan Jian and I were in a hurry, so we kind of forgot the veil back at the pavilion" he said.
Li yu'er didn't seem to bother about the veil. She tried to recall what had happened before she fell unconscious.
She had just left her seclusion and left her pavilion, even speaking to Yan Jian. Suddenly, she felt the demon entity within her dantian stir into a fit of violent movement.
Used to these situations, she retreated to her seclusion room and tried to suppress the demon, only to be met with brute resistance.
Her struggle with the demon entity lasted for hours and ended in her defeat. She fell unconscious out of fatigue.
Her mind took in all that happened in an instant.
"Thank you for your help." she clasped her fist at Lord Yi Ming, although her voice and expression remained cold to the extreme.
Lord Yi Ming laughed, not taking her personality to heart.
"You are quite an interesting person." He muttered. "So, young lady, how did that thing get into your dantian? It's quite nasty. Were you born with it?" He asked.
Li yu'er's expression changed slightly. She hesitated briefly before replying.
"I wasn't born with it." Was her cold reply.
"But you do know that considering the way your life source is being absorbed, you don't have much more than two years to live?" Lord Yi Ming asked again.
Li yu'er remained silent, which was taken as a silent acceptance.
Long Feng sighed. So he was right. She was fully aware.
"Miss Li, there may be a way to remove the thing from you!" He spoke up, then went ahead to explain to her all he had discussed with Lord Yi Ming. Listening to him, Li Yue'er's eyes slowly turned colder.
"I am grateful for your help, but I am alright. I will be going now!" Her cold voice cut Long feng short.
She took large strides towards the palace door to leave.
Long feng stood there, shocked before he turned around and ran after her, standing before the palace door.
"Miss Li, you are not alright. Lord Yi Ming would help you. We can help you." He said.
Li yu'er frowned, squinting her eyes.
"Get out of the way!" She spoke, her voice lacking any emotion.
"Miss Li, you need help. Why be so hard on yourself?" Long feng asked.
Then to his shock, Li yu'er unhesitatingly smashed her small fist at Long feng.
"Move aside!"
Long feng thrust his palm, deflecting her fist, but he was almost flinged out of the palace from the force. He clearly didn't stand much chance against Li Yue'er.
He thought she would attack once more, but she didn't. She stood rooted to the floor, an expression of slight apology on her face.
"I didn't mean to do that!" she said in soft voice.
