The two of them stood there for a while before Li Yan raised his hand.
Chu Luo subconsciously leaned back.
When he saw her reaction, Li Yan’s smile widened. “Are you afraid of me?”
“How is that possible!” Chu Luo also became aware of her subconscious reaction and was suddenly feeling a little unhappy. As the most respected High Priestess, she had never been afraid of anyone. Why would she be afraid of him?
At the thought of this, Chu Luo grabbed his hand. As she spun, she switched their positions.
Li Yan leaned against the door. Chu Luo had one hand on his shoulder and the other waving in front of him. She threatened fiercely, “Li Yan, I’m warning you. If you dare to have any designs on me, I’ll beat you up.”
Li Yan looked down at the fierce little thing and quietly wrapped his arm around her from behind. When she wasn’t looking, he tightened his grip.
“Uh…”
As her body was brought into his broad embrace, Chu Luo’s aura instantly weakened.
Li Yan suggested, “Since you can’t beat me, why don’t you use another method to punish me?”
Chu Luo looked at him suspiciously.
Li Yan curled his lips, looking like a bad boy. “You can block my mouth, like this…”
“Mm…”
Chu Luo didn’t even have time to close her mouth before she was attacked.
Her mind instantly exploded. Other than their breaths, she couldn’t think of anything else.
Li Yan only let go of her when her breathing became a little irregular.
“Little fool, don’t you know how to breathe through your nose?”
Chu Luo blinked a few times, her eyes watery. After she tried her best to take a few deep breaths, her mind started working again.
The moment she could, she flew into a rage out of humiliation and slapped him. With a red face, she pointed at him and chided, “You, you, you… you big baddie!”
Li Yan watched her reaction and chuckled. His laughter was low and bewitching, causing Chu Luo’s face to flush even more.
He deliberately asked, “Do you want to return it?”
Chu Luo pulled a long face. “Dream on.”
After saying that, she pushed him to the side.
Li Yan obediently took two steps to the side.
Chu Luo quickly opened the door and slammed it shut.
Looking at the closed door, Li Yan rubbed his lips with his thumb, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
To prevent Li Yan from entering, Chu Luo locked the door and even set up a small array by it.
Only then did she go to wash up and sleep in peace.
However, in the middle of the night, Chu Luo suddenly felt danger approaching and immediately woke up and opened her eyes.
At the same time, someone knocked on the door.
Chu Luo quickly walked over and opened the door. Standing outside was Li Yan.
Li Yan had already changed. Seeing that Chu Luo was still wearing her pajamas, he said, “Go change.”
Chu Luo nodded at him and quickly went to the bathroom to change before heading downstairs with him.
There was no moonlight tonight, and only the light from the street lamp shone in from downstairs.
Abel strode over from the corridor and said to Li Yan, “Master, Qin Ming has already gone out to stop that group of people. I just received news that there are people with special abilities among the people who came.”
Chu Luo tilted her head and looked at Li Yan, whose expression was concealed in the night. She could only feel the cold aura emanating from his body. She asked in confusion, “What are these people trying to do?”
At this point, she added, “Could it be your enemies again?”
“This street is filled with important people. It’s heavily guarded. Normal people can’t enter. Even those who want to deal with me can’t come here.”
Li Yan walked towards the door and said to Abel after taking two steps, “Go to the armory and get Luoluo a gun that suits her.”
“Okay, Master.”
Li Yan and Chu Luo walked into the courtyard and could hear the sound of fighting outside.
The fragrance of the flowers wafted into her nose. Chu Luo looked around and said, “I’ve set up a barrier around your villa. To think someone here knows about this.”
“Has the barrier been broken?”
“The barrier that I set up cannot be easily broken by others.”
Just then, Abel came out quickly. He handed Chu Luo a gun.
Chu Luo took it and looked at it lovingly for a while before saying, “These people have caused such a huge commotion. The people living here aren’t ordinary people. Aren’t they afraid of alarming everyone?”
“The people here won’t be nosy.”
Li Yan moved to walk out of the gate.
Chu Luo stopped him. “Where are you going?”
“I’ll go take a look.”
After saying that, he put the earpiece in his pocket on his ears and strode out as he asked about the situation outside.
Chu Luo stood there and didn’t follow him. Instead, she walked towards the backyard.
Abel quickly followed her. “Madam, why don’t we wait for Master and the rest in the living room?”
“I’ll go take a look.”
Chu Luo and Abel quickly walked to the backyard. There were streetlights in the backyard, and their orange glow was cast upon the flowers. With the evening wind blowing, it was supposed to be a very comfortable view.
Chu Luo just stood there. Abel didn’t know what she was going to do, so he followed suit.
At this moment, she heard footsteps behind her.
The two of them turned around at the same time.
“Mr. Neeson, what are you doing out here?” Abel frowned when he saw who it was.
Neeson didn’t answer him. Instead, he looked at Chu Luo and asked, “What happened outside?”
“It’s fine. Some fools just want to steal something.”
Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, a huge explosion suddenly came from outside.
A huge fire appeared not far ahead.
Chu Luo looked over and frowned. She said to Abel, “I’ll go take a look.”
After saying that, she quickly walked towards the wall. After taking a few steps, she quickened her pace. When she reached the wall, she jumped out.
“Madam…”
Abel didn’t have time to stop her at all and could only watch as Chu Luo left.
At that moment, he felt a knife pressed against his waist.
Abel’s eyes narrowed. “Mr. Neeson, you actually…”
Neeson threatened him in a low voice. “You better not act rashly. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
“Are you on their side?!”
Neeson didn’t bother to answer him. He might not remember anyone, but living here had made him unhappy. Now that he had such a good chance to leave, he would be a fool not to take it. He’d been looking for this chance for a long time.
He quickly withdrew the weapon from Abel and headed for the back door.
Abel looked at Neeson, who was walking quickly in that direction. “Without my master and madam’s permission, you think you can leave?” he snapped.
With that, he attacked him.
Before the fist could hit the back of his head, Neeson quickly sidestepped and counterattacked.
The two of them instantly started fighting.
The fight between the two was very intense. Many blooming flowers were smashed by them.
Just then, a powerful gust of wind blew towards them. Abel instinctively dodged to the side. In the next second, Neeson was gone.
As he looked at the empty space, Abel’s expression darkened, and he quickly chased after him to the back door.
Chu Luo quickly rushed to Li Yan’s side. At this moment, a group of people with special abilities was holding them back.
Once Chu Luo arrived, she said to them loudly, “Everyone, retreat.”
With a gesture from Li Yan, everyone took a few steps back.
Chu Luo quickly surrounded them with magic power. At the same time, she took out a handful of medicinal powder and threw it at those people.
The powder seemed to have eyes. No matter how powerful these people were, they were instantly poisoned and fled, wailing in pain.
Chu Luo walked over to Li Yan and the others.
Li Yan said to Qin Ming, “Get rid of these people.”
After saying that, he grabbed Chu Luo’s hand and led her towards the villa.
Chu Luo sensed around as she walked and suddenly frowned. She grabbed Li Yan’s hand and led him to the back door of the villa.
As she ran, she said, “We must have been tricked. The most powerful person has moved only now and went straight to the backyard.”
The two of them were very fast, but when they arrived, they were still a step too late.
Abel happened to open the back door and rush out. When he saw the two of them, he quickly walked over and told them what had happened.
“It’s actually Neeson’s men?” Chu Luo frowned.
Li Yan snorted. “We underestimated his status.”
Neeson really didn’t remember everyone, but the fact that the organization behind him could find this place proved that “Ink Feather” was more powerful than they had imagined.
Chu Luo thought for a moment and said, “Let’s go into the courtyard and take a look.”
The three of them walked to the spot where the strong winds had come from. Chu Luo sensed it carefully and said, “The people who came in weren’t humans. They didn’t destroy the array I’d set up and used other things directly.”
“There are many capable people from Ink Feather,” Li Yan said in a low voice. “I underestimated them.”
After saying that, he raised his hand and moved his earpiece before ordering, “Search for him.”
…
The next day, when Chu Luo went downstairs, Li Yan was already sitting on the sofa. Qin Ming was reporting to him. “Ink Feather’s men bribed the manager of XX City. When our men found that place yesterday, that manager stopped us for almost half an hour. In the end, Neeson and the others escaped.”
A strong murderous aura emanated from Li Yan, but he didn’t say anything.
Chu Luo walked over and sneered. “Those people were really willing to do anything to take Neeson away.”
Li Yan was silent for a while before saying, “So be it.”
If Chu Luo hadn’t wanted to learn from him, he would have dealt with that person long ago.
Out of sight, out of mind. If he saw him again, he couldn’t be blamed for being impolite.
For the next period of time, Chu Luo and the five boys went where they’d planned to go.
Many people knew Tang Zhiyun and his friends now. Whenever they went out, Chu Luo would smear something on their faces so that no one would recognize them.
The group stayed here until the middle of August before returning to the empire.
