"Whether you tell me or not is your freedom."
At this moment, Ye Fei withdrew his gaze from the woman in red and said nothing further.
Seeing Ye Fei's demeanor, it seemed as though he had resigned himself to fate, quietly awaiting his death!
"No fun..."
Originally, the woman in red had intended to toy with Ye Fei, but she hadn't expected him to compromise so quickly. It was utterly uninteresting!
"You're supposed to be the favored disciple of Daoist Bai Mei, yet you surrender so soon?"
The woman in red spoke again.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*
Ye Fei, who had been lowering his head, abruptly lifted it the instant the woman in red spoke and looked towards her!
"Looking at me won't help. In our line of work, we take money and avert disaster! Even if you are Daoist Bai Mei's disciple, you must die today! As for who the employer is, I'm sorry, I cannot tell you! However, I can give you a hint. Whether you can figure it out is your own business. That person is in Jiangdong... and it's someone you would never imagine, someone you would never suspect... *Hee hee hee!*"
As the woman in red spoke, she suddenly laughed at Ye Fei!
*Whoosh! Whoosh!*
Ye Fei's brows immediately furrowed tightly!
That person is in Jiangdong? The employer is someone close to Ye Fei? Someone he'd never imagine or suspect? Then who could it be? Someone close to him? It seemed he only knew a few people around him! Qin Bing, Qin Lan, those two sisters, and who else? It seemed there was no one else besides them! Oh, if there was anyone, it could only be Gao Guoqiang from the Gao family, his son Gao Lei, and his daughter Gao Yuanyuan! And the Zhang family's Zhang Daqiang and his wife... Besides these people, Ye Fei couldn't think of anyone else! And for these people, Ye Fei pondered for a long time, unable to understand their reasons for wanting him dead! Moreover, Ye Fei had even shown them kindness! In that case, there was even less reason for them to kill him! So, if it wasn't them, then who could it be? Ye Fei pondered for a long time, still without an answer.
Afterward, Ye Fei's gaze fell upon the woman in red, staring at her intently! Ye Fei's gaze was sharp and discerning; he could tell with a single glance whether this woman was lying or not!
"How is it? Do you feel like everyone is a killer, and yet no one is?"
The woman in red looked at Ye Fei playfully and said, "However, you no longer have time to think. I'm very busy... so I'll send you to the West now! However, before you die, I can promise you that I will spare this woman."
The woman in red spoke again slowly. After speaking, she didn't wait for Ye Fei to reply and walked straight towards him, ready to kill him! Killing such an excellent opponent so suddenly made the woman in red feel a pang of reluctance! If the employer hadn't insisted on his death, she would have genuinely liked to spare Ye Fei's life! What a pity! What a pity!
The next moment, the woman in red did not hesitate and launched her attack ferociously!
*Bang!*
Just as everyone, including the woman in red herself, believed Ye Fei was surely doomed, an unexpected turn of events suddenly occurred! A hand suddenly appeared in front of Ye Fei, clamping onto her wrist just as her arm was about to land on Ye Fei's chest!
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*
In an instant, the woman in red's eyes widened, her smile vanished! She looked at Ye Fei with shock, disbelief, and horror!
"You... you're not poisoned?"
After a while, the woman in red finally regained her senses. She spoke with disbelief! Then, without waiting for Ye Fei to speak, she shook her head forcefully, "No! Impossible! You couldn't possibly not be poisoned. You clearly fell victim to my potent toxin just now. Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"How about that? Surprised? Shocked?"
Ye Fei stood up from the ground, casting off his earlier weakness and pale complexion! At this moment, Ye Fei's eyes fixed on the woman in red, and he spoke with a cold smile!
"If I hadn't pretended to fall into your trap and be poisoned, how could I have tricked you into speaking?"
Ye Fei said with a cold smile, looking at the woman in red once more!
"You!"
The woman in red's expression changed instantly upon hearing Ye Fei's words! Only then did the woman in red belatedly realize that she had been deceived by this scoundrel Ye Fei! It turned out that from the very beginning, he hadn't been poisoned at all!
"You were deliberately injured just now?"
The woman in red looked at Ye Fei and spoke angrily! At this moment, the woman in red was filled with rage and found it difficult to accept this reality!
"Otherwise?"
Ye Fei looked at her and said with a smile!
"You bastard, how dare you play me! I'll kill you!"
Thinking that she had already captured Ye Fei, only to realize she was just a clown, overly clever, she couldn't accept this reality and became enraged! The next moment, she wanted to break free from Ye Fei's grip and attack again. However, at this moment, the woman in red discovered that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free from Ye Fei's arm! Ye Fei's arm held her wrist like an iron clamp, making it impossible for her to move even a fraction!
"Kill me? Are you qualified? I'm the closed-door disciple of Daoist Bai Mei! If I could be killed by any commoner like you, wouldn't that old man be so angry he'd die on the spot!"
Ye Fei mocked the woman in red and said. "You wanted to kill me just now. By rights, I should retaliate in kind and kill you! However, I am a kind-hearted person and dislike killing, so I won't kill you! But!"
After Ye Fei finished speaking, he then looked at the woman in red and made a turn!
*Swish!*
The next moment, Ye Fei suddenly raised his hand. Before the woman in red could react, a flash of white light flickered in his hand and pointed towards the woman in red! The woman in red's face changed drastically upon seeing this! She wanted to dodge, but because her arm was clamped by Ye Fei, she couldn't dodge or retreat! Therefore, she could only watch helplessly as one of Ye Fei's fingers pointed into her body. In that instant, the woman in red felt something enter her body. Unfortunately, when she tried to find it, it had vanished without a trace!
"You scoundrel, what did you do to me? Tell me quickly!"
The woman in red was filled with panic. After checking herself and finding no abnormality, she could only raise her head, widen her eyes, glare at Ye Fei, and ask loudly in interrogation.
"Guess!"
Ye Fei ignored her curses and said with a smile.
"You!"
The woman in red gritted her teeth, wishing she could devour Ye Fei bite by bite on the spot!
"I'm just making you behave!"
At this moment, Ye Fei spoke as he released his grip!
*Swish!*
The next moment, the woman in red, having escaped Ye Fei's restraint, immediately produced a fine needle and thrust it straight at Ye Fei's brow!
"If you kill me, you probably won't live to see tomorrow. Are you sure?"
Just then, Ye Fei's voice was heard.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*
The woman in red's face suddenly changed upon hearing Ye Fei's casual words, and she stopped abruptly! Setting aside whether she could kill this scoundrel Ye Fei, his latter sentence was something the woman in red dared not gamble on! After all, the unknown is the most terrifying! If it were someone else, she might think they were bluffing! But Ye Fei! She didn't think so! Because Ye Fei was the closed-door disciple of Daoist Bai Mei! Who was Daoist Bai Mei? The foremost figure in China! His medical skills, Taoist arts, and mystic arts were all unfathomable! And Ye Fei, as his favored disciple, couldn't possibly be weak!
"You're scared!"
Ye Fei looked at the fine needle that was just inches away from him, showing no fear on his face, and smiled at the woman in red.
"What the devil did you put in me?"
The woman in red took a deep breath, and said angrily, "And what is your purpose? Speak quickly!"
"Know your place. Your life is in my hands now! Speak politely, and maintain a good attitude!"
Ye Fei glanced at the woman in red and reminded her unceremoniously.
"You!"
The woman in red's face turned ashen. She was furious, but utterly helpless!
