Qiao Tian Chang narrowed his eyes, warning the others on the side. These people could stand and watch the show now, but would they be that brave if it happened to them instead?
“Tian Chang, just this one time, please.” Ning Meng Yao looked at Qiao Tian Chang with a pair of big puppy eyes. Her gaze had quite an effect on him and it took him a lot of willpower to turn away from her. If he had kept looking at her, perhaps he would have nodded and agreed to her plan.
Qiao Tian Chang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then looked at the person in his arms. She refused to leave unless she got her wish. “Yao Yao, you’re pregnant with two children. I can’t let you take such a risk.”
“But this is the best way,” Ning Meng Yao said weakly. This was the only way they could trick the enemy into believing them.
Qiao Tian Chang shook his head: “I’d rather spend some extra time than to let you take the risk.” The risk factor was quite big this time. If the enemy figured it out, the consequence would be unthinkable.
Qiao Tian Chang felt chills all over his body as soon as he thought of the possibility that Ning Meng Yao might be in danger.
Ning Meng Yao looked at Qiao Tian Chang with a headache piling on. Judging from the way he looked, he would certainly not agree to her taking a risk, but then what should they do?
They could not possibly just let this slide, right?
Just as Ning Meng Yao was confused, Wei Luo suddenly spoke, “Actually, there is another way. We can let them know that the Spirit Fox is here.”
Ning Meng Yao and Qiao Tian Chang turned to face Wei Luo together. “Spirit Fox? What do you mean?”
“Yes, the blood of the Spirit Fox in Miaojiang can detoxify all kinds of poisons, so he has been looking for it but to no avail. If he knew that the Spirit Fox is here, he would definitely come over.” Wei Luo spoke with confidence while looking at Ning Meng Yao.
Ning Meng Yao looked at Wei Luo confusedly. The Spirit Fox was indeed with them. Was it really necessary to give the Spirit Fox then? She could not set her heart to do it.
“All he wants is some blood from the Spirit Fox.” Wei Luo smiled and explained. She knew what Ning Meng Yao was thinking about.
“Why would you think that the Spirit Fox is here?” Ning Meng Yao looked at Wei Luo with some surprise and doubts on her face.
Wei Luo chuckled. She was amused by Ning Meng Yao’s cute expression.
“How did I know? Well, I can’t tell you the reason for that but I know that the Spirit Fox is near you.”
Ning Meng Yao took a glance at Wei Luo. The Spirit Fox was indeed in their hands now, but who was to decide whether or not they should sacrifice the Spirit Fox? The Spirit Fox was considered hers, in Ning Meng Yao’s opinion, and she did not want anyone to take it away from her.
Wei Luo saw the serious expression on Ning Meng Yao’s face. “Meng Yao, you only have this option.”
Ning Meng Yao chuckled as she looked at Wei Luo faintly. “Are you threatening me? Or are you ordering me?”
Wei Luo frowned. “I didn’t mean to threaten or order you. I just want you to know that this is the best solution. As long as Feng Xiao can get rid of the poison in him, he won’t think of having those things anymore and so fewer people would die when the time comes. Isn’t this a good solution?” Wei Luo did not understand why Ning Meng Yao would insist on the other method. Wasn’t this the best solution?
Ning Meng Yao laughed out loud and looked at Wei Luo. “This is what you think. Do you think that he will really give up on the things here? I’m sure you more or less understand the importance of these things. You tell me, who would really give up these things?”
Ning Meng Yao looked mockingly at Wei Luo and she really did not know what gave her confidence.
She dared to think that Feng Xiao would give up all the things here once his poison was removed.
Wei Luo looked at Ning Meng Yao and guaranteed, “I promise he won’t go after those things.”
Ning Meng Yao sneered. “You guarantee? Your guarantee is useless because you are not him.”
“I…”
“Wei Luo, I know that you know Feng Xiao very well and maybe you know him better than he himself does. But please don’t forget that the heart of a person is the most difficult to understand. I can’t take this risk. Besides he might have already known that you’re here, right? So, do you still think that he would believe you if we followed your plan?”
