Chapter 4966: Who Should I Ask?
Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Everything happened too suddenly.
Li Yiming was stunned. He didn’t understand what had happened.
After a long while, he realised that Huang Yueli seemed to have really fainted and not thought of some underhanded methods.
Li Yiming hesitated for a moment before carefully walking towards Huang Yueli as he probed.
“Phoenix…Matriarch Huang? You… Are you still awake?”
Huang Yueli’s face was slightly pale as her eyes were tightly shut. She laid on the ground motionlessly without any response.
Li Yiming raised his voice again,” Matriarch Huang? Matriarch Huang? You… Wake up!”
Huang Yueli still didn’t react.
This time, Li Yiming really panicked.
What was going on?
If it was really him who had injured Huang Yueli, then it would be fine. But unfortunately, when the two of them exchanged blows earlier, he was clearly at a disadvantage!
It was Huang Yueli who had forced him to retreat in one move!
He wasn’t injured but Huang Yueli suddenly fainted…If he didn’t know that Huang Yueli didn’t need to play such a trick, he would have thought that she was trying to trick him.
However, it was precisely because this was not a trap that… It made him even more terrified.
Could it be that there was something else in the poison An Zhenyu had left behind that he hadn’t discovered? He didn’t need to swallow it to poison someone to death?
The more Li Yiming thought about it, the more uneasy he became. A layer of cold sweat seeped out of his forehead.
He looked left and right and realised that there wasn’t anyone in the courtyard. Those guards and servant girls from before had already been affected by the powerful pressure from the two of them when he and Huang Yue left the battle and some of them had even fainted.
Li Yiming gritted his teeth and took out a talisman. He lit it up and threw it into the sky.
This was the secret code he had agreed upon with the other elders of the clan.
According to the original plan, after he had knocked Huang Yueli unconscious, the other Elders would rush over to cover him to get her out of the city.
Sure enough, not long after, five figures jumped down from the wall of the small courtyard.
The moment they saw Huang Yueli lying on the ground, everyone was pleasantly surprised.
” Elder Ming, you’re really a meritorious person of our Cloudy Qilin Clan to be able to accomplish this matter!”
” As expected, it was right to invite you to carry out the plan. Now, the most difficult step has been completed!”
“If Lord Patriarch knew, he would probably be very happy. It seems that the return of the Young Master to the family is just around the corner!”
Everyone surrounded Li Yiming and praised him.
Li Yiming’s expression was uglier than crying.” You guys…” Sigh! Things are not what you think. Huang Yueli wasn’t drugged by me. What An Zhenyu gave me that day was not knockout powder, but poison!
And it was a deadly poison! I almost made a big mistake.”
“What?” Everyone’s face turned pale in fear,” Could it be that Huang Yueli has already…”
Li Yi Ming hurriedly replied: ” That’s not it. I wasn’t careful enough when I drugged her and was discovered by Huang Yueli. She didn’t drink it.”
Everyone let out a long breath in unison. They all had a lingering fear in their hearts, and at the same time, they were extremely angry.
“That damned An Zhenyu! ” I knew it. How could the White Fen Clan be so kind as to give us knockout powder for free? This little thief is clearly trying to use us! Damn it!”
“Sooner or later, I’ll go to the White Fen Clan and get back at them!”
Some people felt that something was wrong.” Wait, that’s not right. Since…” Huang Yueli didn’t drink the knockout powder, then she is now…”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked at Li Yiming in confusion.
“If you ask me, who should I ask?” Li Yiming forced a smile.
