Cheng Fei picked up the token, and took out another identical piece from his pocket to fit them together seamlessly.
Then, Cheng Fei threw the token to Qin Yi, "Hold it well, don't let anyone snatch it away again."
Qin Yi could hear the sarcasm in Cheng Fei's words, but he didn't mind and smiled, "Thanks for the reminder."
"Follow ." Cheng Fei saw his sarcasm had no effect on Qin Yi, his expression beca increasingly displeased.
To Cheng Fei, a man should act like a man; if not overflowing with presence, at least have acceptable cultivation. But Qin Yi obviously did not fall into this category, looking bewitchingly handso, with no Qi fluctuation, seemingly a talker making a living.
Qin Yi smiled helplessly, how could he not notice Cheng Fei's dislike towards him? He shook his head and followed Cheng Fei to the main hall.
Cheng Fei sat grandly in the main seat, waved, and said, "Please sit."
Qin Yi took a seat, and a maid served tea.
"All of you, leave."
Cheng Fei waved the maid and soldiers out of the main hall, casually picked up a wine gourd nearby, opened the cork, took a bold gulp, wiped the wine off his lips, glanced at Qin Yi, and casually asked, "How's the Second Prince doing now?"
"Not well, he's about to die."
Cheng Fei intended to take another sip of wine but was startled by Qin Yi's words, fortunate not to drink, otherwise he would have sprayed it out.
"Impossible! The Second Prince is only under house arrest; once the investigation clears, he will be free. Is it really as severe as you say? Besides, even if he attempted to assassinate the deposed Empress, the Emperor has always valued the Second Prince, plus his birth mother is the current Empress. Unless it's rebellion, how could he be dying over this?"
Qin Yi shook his head, "I don't know either; anyway, the Second Prince told he's likely about to die."
"Why?" Cheng Fei asked incredulously.
Qin Yi shook his head, indicating he didn't know.
"What do you do? Why would the Second Prince send soone like you who knows nothing?" Cheng Fei said disdainfully.
Qin Yi's mouth twitched a few tis, seriously said, "Because right now, he has no one else to use, only ."
"What do you an?" Cheng Fei frowned, "The Second Prince has many talents, how could there be no one to use?"
"All his subordinates are under house arrest in the Second Prince Mansion, unable to leave."
Cheng Fei asked in surprise, "Then how did you get out?"
"I walked out."
Cheng Fei squinted slightly, "As far as I know, there are five Black Armor Warrior arrows surrounding the Second Prince Mansion, how did you get out?"
"They couldn't stop ."
Cheng Fei scrutinized Qin Yi, suddenly laughed disdainfully, "With just you?"
Qin Yi smiled, "With just ."
"You pretty boy, looking prettier than a woman, boasting quite well. Unfortunately, I detest empty pretty faces like yours most."
Qin Yi: "..."
This woman seems to have a strong opinion against him, just because he's too handso?
"How do you know I'm boasting?"
Cheng Fei sneered, "I tell you, I don't care how much the Second Prince values you, here I only value capability. No matter what sweet words you say, they are useless here. Here, strength is everything."
Without waiting for Qin Yi to speak, Cheng Fei continued, "Tell , what did the Second Prince send you to do?"
"He asked to bring you a letter." Qin Yi said, taking out a secret letter, casually tossing it, the letter flew straight like an arrow and settled perfectly on the mouth of the wine gourd.
Cheng Fei was astonished at this, the letter seed light, yet flew with frightening force to suddenly stop and rest securely on the small wine gourd mouth, requiring extre control of power to achieve. She could do it but not as effortlessly as Qin Yi.
She suddenly found, she might have misjudged him.
Cheng Fei did not imdiately take the secret letter but curiously looked at Qin Yi, asked, "May I know your na?"
"Qin Yi."
Cheng Fei's eyes imdiately focused, stared intensely at Qin Yi. After a long pause, she asked, "The Qin Yi who beheaded the Three Kings of Tianyue Empire?"
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
Cheng Fei's expression changed.
"For real?"
Qin Yi was used to answering this question, laughed, "Absolutely genuine."
Shock appeared in Cheng Fei's eyes. He was a War General of Yunyue Empire, and a nesis to Tianyue Empire's Twelve Kings, having faced them countless tis but always matched. Upon hearing Qin Yi beheaded the Three Kings, she almost idolized Qin Yi.
In her impression, Qin Yi should be wearing Silver Gold Spear, valiantly formidable. But the pretty boy before her, what's going on?
"Are you really the Qin Yi who beheaded the Three Kings of Tianyue Empire?" Cheng Fei couldn't help asking again.
Qin Yi: "..."
He was tired of answering.
Cheng Fei felt sowhat awkward, Qin Yi vastly differed from her imagination, such a handso devilish man, seemingly powerless, dared to behead the Three Kings of Tianyue Empire, it was too unbelievable.
She coughed, "Admirable."
Qin Yi smiled, he could see Cheng Fei's view of him changed, from dislike to respect.
Cheng Fei casually opened the secret letter, began reading after confirming it was correct. As expected by Qin Yi, her expression grew increasingly grim.
After reading, Cheng Fei rubbed her hands, directly crumbling the letter into pieces.
"Mr. Qin, have you read this secret letter?"
Qin Yi shook his head.
"Okay, then I'll write a letter, trouble you to bring it back to the Second Prince."
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
Cheng Fei left for a while, ca back holding a secret letter, handed it to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi was about to take it, but Cheng Fei suddenly withdrew her hand. Qin Yi paused, looked at her puzzled.
Cheng Fei suspiciously asked, "As far as I know, Mr. Qin should be soone of the Third Princess. Why are you delivering letters for the Second Prince?"
"Who said I'm soone of the Third Princess? I have no relation with her."
Cheng Fei said, "But if I recall correctly, the Three Kings of Tianyue Empire were beheaded by Mr. Qin on behalf of the Third Princess. Could it be, you were sent by the Second Prince to infiltrate the Third Princess's side."
Qin Yi thought for a mont, shook his head slightly, "I t the Third Princess first, then the Second Prince."
"It seems the Second Prince can offer you things the Third Princess can't."
Qin Yi smiled and nodded.
"But Mr. Qin doesn't seem like soone who would betray and abandon loyalties."
"What is betrayal and abandonnt? Loyalty rely ans the chips to betray are insufficient."
"Absurd," Cheng Fei said coldly.
Qin Yi looked at her, "People aim higher, water flows downward. I'm just a commoner, whoever can offer more, I choose to help them, isn't that right?"
"Of course! Everyone has their choices, I have no right to interfere with your decisions. I originally thought Mr. Qin who beheaded the Three Kings, was a heroic figure worthy of admiration. Didn't expect, you're just a rcenary petty person blinded by profit. Sorry, I speak bluntly, hope you don't mind."
