As soon as Li Yi killed Phoenix, Adrian walked out from another corner with a few guards. Seeing that Li Yi had thrown his sword aside and did not show any signs of abnormality, he quickly walked over and said with a smile,"" Ruthless enough. I like it. Hahaha…"
Li Yi did not say anything and just looked at him silently.
Knowing Li Yi's temperament, he did not mind. Instead, he waved his hand and shouted at the guard beside him,""What are you waiting for? Hurry up and carry this fellow away. Don't let anyone find out.”
The guards rushed forward and took out a bag to put Phoenix in. Then, they carried her and disappeared at the end of the alley.
After watching the guards leave, Adrian immediately put on a smile and looked at Li Yi. Li Yi silently put on his knight hat again and said indifferently,""Is there anything else?"
"No, no."
Adrian laughed and turned around.""Let's go!" As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and walked out.
Li Yi, who was following behind him, looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, killing intent rose in his heart.
However, when he thought that Adrian would not be so careless to be alone with him, he immediately endured it.
The more Adrian acted like this, the more he did not dare to act rashly.
Adrian was not the kind of person who trusted others easily, especially a 'lowly human' like him. He must have had his own plans for him to be so confident that he was not afraid of being killed here.
Thinking of this, Li Yi relaxed and followed Adrian out of the alley in silence.
The pedestrians on the street outside the alley were not affected by the chaos in the slave market at all. It was noisy and lively as usual.
Adrian was exceptionally happy that Phoenix had been killed. After he brought Li Yi back to the mansion's hall, he walked to his seat and sat down. He then looked up at Li Yi, who had followed him into the hall." Do you know why I wanted to kill him?"”
Li Yi shook his head." I don't know, and I don't want to know."”
"Haha, he was in a bad mood because he lost half of his family fortune in a bet with me. Therefore, he spoke to me indifferently at the banquet, as if I had killed his lover.”
Li Yi was slightly stunned. It seemed that Adrian was not only cruel to the slaves, but also to the Heavenly Dragon Tribe. Someone must be unhappy after losing their assets, and just because of this, they killed him to silence him?
Li Yi's heart trembled. If in the future, he found anyone in this mansion an eyesore, would he let them die without knowing why?
He didn't care about the life and death of others, but what about the three Hancock sisters?
" I'll keep my word." Seeing that Li Yi was standing there without saying anything, Adrian stood up and walked in front of Li Yi."You are allowed to leave the mansion once a month. However, the prerequisite is that if you leave the mansion, you have to report to me first.”
" Oh, right." Adrian suddenly recalled something and continued,""There will be a competition the day after tomorrow. You must win. I bet heavily on you.”
After leaving the main hall, Li Yi returned to his own independent hut. From afar, he saw the three Hancock sisters standing in front of the door. Similarly, the three Hancock sisters also saw him. Seeing that he had returned unscathed, the three sisters secretly heaved a sigh of relief and then smiled.
Looking at the three Hancock sisters guarding his door, Li Yi felt a warm feeling in his heart. Then, he strode over and asked with a smile,""Why? Are you worried that I won't come back?”
Under Li Yi's gaze, Hancock quickly looked away and said shyly,""No way."
"Haha,"
Seeing Hankuk's bashful look, Li Yi threw the nervousness of entering the arena to the back of his mind. Then, he laughed out loud and said to Hankuk,""Hancock, I'm hungry."
" Ah," Hancock, who did not expect Li Yi to suddenly say this, widened his eyes and said with a smile,""Yes, yes, I've always prepared it for you.”
Hearing this, Li Yi waved his hand and said,""All of you, come up."
" Okay, okay," Hancock agreed repeatedly. Then, he trotted into the house with his two sisters and brought out all the food that had been prepared.
Looking at the food that was brought out, Li Yi sat down on the spot, then grabbed two pieces of ham and wolfed them down.
Seeing Li Yi eat so exaggeratedly, the three Hancock sisters looked at each other and then smiled.
Seeing the three sisters looking at him after putting down the food, Li Yi swallowed and said,""You guys eat too. If it's not enough, just ask Adrian to send it over.”
"We've eaten." Hancock changed his posture and looked at Li Yi, who was eating exaggeratedly. He asked softly with a trace of curiosity,""Li Yi, what did Adrian ask you to do? Why do I feel like he treats you quite well?”
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Li Yi suddenly stopped and looked at Hancock without blinking. Seeing Hancock looking at him curiously, he put down the ham in silence and said softly,""Hancock, you're still young. When you grow up and understand the ways of the world, you won't think that Adrian is good to me.”
"Oh." Hancock blinked her large eyes. It was obvious that she did not understand what Li Yi was talking about.
Seeing Hankok's curiosity and doubt, Li Yi suddenly smiled.""Let me tell you a story. A long time ago, there was a general who treated his soldiers very well. In one battle, a soldier was injured and his thigh was infected. In order to prevent the infection from spreading, the general used his mouth to suck out all the pus and blood from the wound. After this incident, the neighbors of the soldier envied his family. Some even said to the soldier's mother," Your son is really lucky that the general treats him so well." However, when the mother heard about this, she cried. The neighbor did not understand and asked,"The general is so good to your son. Why are you crying?" Mother said that the better the general treated my son, the more my son would fight on the battlefield. Of course, Adrian wasn't that general. That general was genuinely good to that soldier, but Adrian wasn't really good to me. However, the logic is the same. Their kindness could cause that soldier to die on the battlefield with me! However, I was different from that soldier. That soldier was willing to die for the general, but I had no choice.”
Li Yi shook his head and smiled when he saw that Hancock was staring at him without blinking and did not fully understand what he was saying." Hancock, you only need to know that Adrian is not really good to me, and I will not be easily played to death by him. I still have to bring the three of you sisters out of this godforsaken place.”
Hearing this, Hancock's body trembled slightly. Then, a trace of mist appeared in her big eyes, and she nodded fiercely!
She knew that since Li Yi had said it to her, he would definitely do it.
As for why she trusted Li Yi so much, she did not know.
All she knew was that Li Yi was the only person she and her two younger sisters could rely on in the Holy Land of Mary!
