Chapter 942: Absolutely Impossible

"Where is Mr. Yi from?"

"What does Mr. Yi think about the future demon invasion?"

"Does Mr. Yi truly not have even a trace of fear towards death?"

"Does Mr. Yi have no attachments in this world at all?"

The two quickly engaged in casual conversation.

Night Owl asked Yi Feng questions intermittently.

Although the questions seemed trivial and even meaningless, she was able to capture subtle changes in Yi Feng through various details.

This was to determine whether Yi Feng had any ulterior motives for coming to the island.

However.

Although this was her way of testing Yi Feng, during the conversation, she not only failed to capture any useful information but also felt somewhat uneasy under Yi Feng's gaze.

Because from the moment Yi Feng entered the room, his intense gaze never left her.

It made Night Owl feel uneasy.

Yi Feng looked at Night Owl in front of him, lost in thought.

Is this woman really that formidable?

Could I die at her hands ahead of time?

As for the research on the Poison Island, there's still Fu Nanshan, who is at the Unity Realm.

Even if I die, with Fu Nanshan, a righteous man, he can take on the burden of testing poisons on the Poison Island, and it won't affect humanity's grand plan.

Seeing Yi Feng resting his chin on his hand, his gaze never leaving her, the usually decisive Night Owl actually became somewhat anxious.

Wasn't I the one testing him? Why does it feel like he's the one scrutinizing me?

"I wonder, what is Mr. Yi thinking about?"

Night Owl quickly shook off that dazed feeling, slowly picked up the fragrant tea in her hand, and asked with a slight smile, her sharp eyes continuing to observe Yi Feng's every move.

She was determined not to miss any of Yi Feng's subtle actions.

However, as soon as Night Owl's voice fell, Yi Feng interrupted her.

"Don't move."

Yi Feng said.

"Huh?"

Night Owl was stunned, somewhat confused, not understanding what Yi Feng meant.

But the next moment.

To her surprise, Yi Feng actually reached out his hand and touched the corner of her mouth.

What is this guy trying to do?

Night Owl was completely taken aback.

"There's tea residue on your mouth." Yi Feng said softly, smiling faintly as his thumb gently wiped away the tea residue left on the corner of her mouth.

Feeling the residual warmth of Yi Feng's hand, Night Owl was filled with disbelief.

This guy...

How dare he, how dare he touch me.

Isn't he afraid of death?

Doesn't he know that I am a cursed body, and touching me means certain death?

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

She stared at Yi Feng, asking in a deep voice, "Don't you know that in this world, no one dares to touch me like this, even saints have to keep their distance from me? I am covered in poison, and ordinary people will die upon contact."

"I know."

Yi Feng answered seriously.

"Then why..."

Night Owl asked in shock.

"No reason." Yi Feng waved his hand to interrupt, saying lightly, "It's just that in such a beautiful moment, I can't tolerate a beauty like you having tea residue on your mouth."

Yi Feng was speaking nonsense with a straight face.

After all, he couldn't very well say that he touched her just to seek death. Since he was talking nonsense, he might as well make it sound nice.

As soon as Yi Feng finished speaking.

Night Owl's face turned slightly red, though it was barely noticeable.

Because these two short sentences had instantly touched her heart.

She had always had a passionate heart, but was burdened with a cursed body.

In her life, not only had no member of the opposite sex, but even members of the same sex had kept their distance from her.

If there was anyone who had ever been this close to her, it was the big brother next door when she was a child, but that big brother next door had also ended up being poisoned to death by her.

And as more and more people who came into contact with her were poisoned to death, fewer and fewer people were willing to come into contact with her.

She had long since gotten used to that lonely life.

But deep down, she also felt very sad because of others' alienation, but due to her status and pride, she never mentioned it to anyone.

Until today, when a member of the opposite sex actually risked his life to wipe the tea residue from her mouth.

It was like a dry old sow suddenly encountering sweet dew.

"How... how could you touch someone's face without their permission?" Night Owl lowered her head, stomped her foot, and said coquettishly.

Yi Feng's mouth twitched.

This woman's reaction is a bit off.

And what does her blushing and stomping mean?

Also.

Wasn't it said that this woman is covered in poison, and even getting close to her is dangerous? Why didn't anything happen when I touched her?

"Wait."

To be safe, Yi Feng reached out his hand again, "It's not clean yet."

Feeling the warmth of Yi Feng's hand again, Night Owl's heart was racing.

This man.

This man's courage is too great.

Fortunately, although she is burdened with a cursed body, as her cultivation level increased, she had gained control over it, so the man in front of her wouldn't be at risk.

"I never expected Mr. Yi to be such a meticulous person."

Night Owl's eyes sparkled as she looked at the man in front of her, and she took another sip from the cup on the table.

She deliberately left a trace of tea residue on the corner of her mouth.

At this moment.

She completely forgot the purpose of calling Yi Feng for a private chat.

"What is this woman up to?"

Seeing the tea residue on Night Owl's mouth, Yi Feng was stunned.

But of course, he wouldn't miss the chance to possibly get poisoned.

"Island Master Night is really careless. I just told you that you left tea residue when you drank tea, and now you've done it again. You really never learn."

Yi Feng shook his head, speaking with a mix of helplessness and reproach.

But his hand was honest as it wiped the tea residue from Night Owl's mouth.

Night Owl lowered her head.

Her heart was fluttering.

Her heart was racing.

Although Yi Feng's words carried a tone of blame and reproach, it made her feel inexplicably sweet inside.

"Does... does he like me?"

Night Owl looked at Yi Feng with a nervous gaze, unable to help but wonder.

Otherwise, why would he, not knowing whether he would be poisoned, still resolutely wipe the tea residue from my mouth?

Who else would risk their life to do such a thing?

And Yi Feng was also staring at her.

At the same time, he was paying attention to his body's condition.

Nothing seems wrong.

Blood is normal, breathing is normal, no other discomfort.

Could it be a slow-acting poison?

Yi Feng thought so.

If that's the case, then I should wait a bit longer after going back.

After sitting for a while, Yi Feng got up to leave.

"Is Mr. Yi leaving so soon?" Night Owl hurriedly stood up and asked.

"Island Master Night has a lot of responsibilities, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Yi Feng cupped his hands in farewell and left.

"Alright, Mr. Yi is new here, so he must need some rest."

Night Owl looked somewhat disappointed as she watched Yi Feng leave.

After Yi Feng left, several high-ranking members of the Poison Island quickly arrived.

"Island Master Night, is there something wrong with this guy?"

A high-ranking poison master from the Poison Island was the first to speak, "As you said, this person's performance is too perfect. After much thought, I feel he might be a spy sent by the Black Domain. Should we detain him first?"

"Shut up."

Night Owl's face immediately turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, "Who told you that Mr. Yi is a spy sent by the Black Domain?"

"No one told us, but didn't you also say before that this person's performance is too perfect, making him seem suspicious?" The poison master couldn't help but say.

"When did I say he was suspicious?"

Night Owl's face was stern as she said in a deep voice, "You bunch of old-fashioned people, you don't have the righteousness that he has, how dare you question him?"

"From my interaction with him, Mr. Yi's pure heart for the righteousness of humanity is evident to heaven and earth."

"To say he is a spy is absolutely impossible!"

"I, Night Owl, dare to stake my life on it!"
