Li Yifei stared at Na Yi, the blood-red hue in his eyes growing deeper. Na Yi knelt quietly in front of him, and the two remained frozen like this for half a minute.
Na Yi suddenly opened her eyes at this moment. Her expression became incredibly panicked, and she grasped Li Yifei's arm, speaking urgently and incessantly, her face growing more frantic by the second.
"Na Yi says you can't kill her. If you kill her, you will die!" Uncle Bunong had somehow returned and translated Na Yi's words.
Li Yifei let out a long breath, feeling drained. The inner turmoil he'd been experiencing had utterly exhausted him. He gave a faint, bitter smile and said, "Uncle Bunong, I'm sorry. I was very agitated earlier and probably frightened you all."
