Chapter 955: The World Is So Big, We Should Go See
This sentence was like a lighthouse in the dark, guiding Night Owl to find her direction.
It made her, who had been lost and disheartened, tremble all over and suddenly turn around.
There, she saw Yi Feng standing not far away, smiling at her.
"Alright, alright," Night Owl quickly responded.
The previous coldness had completely vanished.
It was as if the spatial toxins had never existed.
Seeing this, Zhang Zhishan, who was enduring endless pain nearby, widened his eyes, filled with unwillingness.
Was she waiting for Yi Feng here?
Was that letter also meant for Yi Feng?
"Why?" Zhang Zhishan roared at Night Owl through the pain, "Why is it like this?"
"Didn't you like me?"
"Didn't you personally ask me that day what kind of clothes and style I liked on women?"
"Didn't you even dress up specifically to show me?"
"Why was that letter for him and not for me?"
"Why are you treating me like this?"
Zhang Zhishan's words caused Night Owl's face, which had just shown a hint of a smile, to instantly turn cold again.
She appeared in front of Zhang Zhishan as if teleporting, grabbing his throat.
"What kind of thing are you to think I like you?"
"Dressing up for you? Hah, do you even deserve that?"
"I really don't know where you get your confidence from."
Night Owl was almost amused by anger.
This person still couldn't see the situation clearly, truly foolish!
"Island Master Night, I think that's enough. He's already poisoned by you, and his life is pretty much ruined," Yi Feng said softly at this moment.
"Him? Shouldn't we kill him?" Night Owl asked in confusion.
"Let's spare his life," Yi Feng said.
Although he knew this guy was talkative and overly confident, he hadn't done anything truly heinous. Secondly, his father, Zhang Chong, had taken good care of him on the island, and he was one of the few people Yi Feng was somewhat familiar with on the island. Consider it as doing him a favor.
"Alright."
"Since Young Master Yi says to spare his life, then we'll spare his life."
Night Owl, who was ready to strike, withdrew her hand and also removed the poison from his body.
But even so, the severe injuries Night Owl had inflicted on him earlier would be enough to make the rest of his life difficult.
Zhang Zhishan was just a small interlude.
The two walked along the beach in silence.
After a long while, they arrived at a pile of rocks, where Yi Feng sat down on the ground.
Seeing this.
Night Owl also nervously sat down, looking at Yi Feng's profile, biting her lip tightly.
"Young Master Yi..."
But as soon as she started to speak, Yi Feng waved his hand to stop her.
"Let's drink first."
Yi Feng, with a sense of ceremony, took out a tablecloth and spread it on the rocks, then brought out some late-night snacks that hadn't been eaten yet, along with a pot of wine and two cups.
Night Owl looked at the wine cup Yi Feng handed her, swallowed her words, and quickly raised her cup.
They started with a few cups of wine.
"Island Master Night, do you have any friends?" Yi Feng put down his cup and asked softly.
"Friends..."
Night Owl murmured softly, then shook her head.
Not only did she not have any.
But even the word was unfamiliar to her.
"Has Island Master Night ever tried to make friends?"
Yi Feng asked again.
Night Owl remained silent.
She didn't understand.
"Is there anyone important to Island Master Night?"
Yi Feng added, "I mean in the past."
"Yes."
Night Owl blurted out.
"It was my father, but he passed away when I was very young."
"You must have been very sad back then," Yi Feng said.
Night Owl remained silent.
"Actually, it's the same for everyone. When someone important leaves or passes away, it's always hard," Yi Feng comforted softly.
Night Owl nodded.
"But everyone will leave eventually..." Yi Feng continued seriously.
Night Owl looked at him.
"The good thing is, for everyone, there will always be many people in their lives who are important to them..." Yi Feng went on, "They could be family bound by blood, friends who have shared hardships, or even enemies who respect each other..."
"Family, friends, enemies..."
Night Owl pondered Yi Feng's words seriously.
"Do you have any?" she asked, looking up.
"Yes, many."
Yi Feng poured himself a cup of wine and smiled, "I have a little disciple named Zhong Qing. Although we're not related by blood, he's like a son to me."
"I also have a bodyguard. Although he can't beat anyone, he has saved my life."
"I have many neighbors who often bring me vegetables, play chess with me when I'm bored, and even play cards with me."
"Oh, and I also have a dog..."
For some reason, hearing Yi Feng mention so many important people made Night Owl feel incredibly失落.
"Of course, that's not all."
Yi Feng's voice came again.
"Besides them, I've met many interesting people later on. There's Bai Piaopiao in the Mufu Mountains, Yun Yaoyao in the Immortal's Cave, and Lu Qingshan in Pingjiang City..."
"Although it's been a long time since I've seen them..."
"And now, on Tian Du Island, there's a group of diligent poison masters, and the second-in-command Zhang Chong, and of course, Island Master Night."
Hearing this.
Night Owl looked up at Yi Feng, her red lips tightening involuntarily.
"To me, you are all friends, all important people," Yi Feng smiled. "Although our friendship is shallow, I feel that many people on the island are worth befriending. If any of them were to leave, I would feel very uncomfortable."
"Thinking about leaving tomorrow, I also feel very reluctant."
"But, there's no feast that doesn't end. Today's parting is for a better reunion in the future."
The sea breeze was a bit chilly, making Yi Feng's body seem thin. He couldn't help but take another sip of strong wine to warm himself.
After drinking, Yi Feng poured another cup and raised it towards Night Owl.
"Island Master Night, what am I to you?" Yi Feng asked with a smile.
Night Owl sat there in a daze.
Lost in thought.
What was he?
She couldn't immediately put it into words.
She only knew that Yi Feng was the only person willing to get close to her, not keeping a distance like others.
She only knew that the thought of Yi Feng leaving made her feel very sad, very reluctant.
Seeing Night Owl's silence, Yi Feng smiled faintly, not minding, and withdrew his hand to drink by himself.
At first, he might have thought Night Owl was a sea queen.
But now, after staying on Tian Du Island for so long, hearing many things, and seeing many things.
So, how could he not see through Night Owl's thoughts?
He wasn't a fool.
But if Night Owl really liked him, facing such a woman with beauty, figure, and even semi-saint strength, could Yi Feng remain unmoved?
The answer was definitely no.
After all, he was a man.
A strong and capable man.
But the fact was, did Night Owl really like him?
Yi Feng didn't think so.
At best, it was some kind of畸形的好感罢了.
He could even see that when he teased her that day, Night Owl's willingness wasn't because she liked him, but because he was different to her.
He was the only one willing to get close to her.
She didn't even consider whether such closeness was appropriate or overstepping.
In a way.
This woman was pitiful.
In such a situation, Yi Feng couldn't take advantage of her.
The night passed quickly.
Night Owl remained silent, seemingly pondering Yi Feng's question all night.
Yi Feng, on the other hand, drank by himself, never disturbing her.
Watching the rising red sun at dawn, Yi Feng poured the last cup of wine into his mouth, feeling a bit drunk.
"The world is so big, we should go see it."
"So, Island Master Night, you can put aside your identity and go somewhere where no one knows you."
"There, you're not a semi-saint, not cursed with misfortune."
"You're just you, just Night Owl."
"Then, you'll find that life is still beautiful..."
After saying this, Yi Feng slightly raised his head, looking at the port not far away.
"The sails are up, it's time for me to set sail."
Yi Feng walked away.
Behind him, Night Owl, who had been silent all along, quickly looked up and stood to see him off.
Despite her status, at this moment, her eyes were misty.
After taking a few steps, Yi Feng seemed to remember something, stopped, and turned back.
"Oh, Island Master Night, this little turtle I saved on the island, please take care of it for me."
"Make sure to raise it well."
"In the future, you must return it to me intact..."
