Li Yue was taken back. She clenched her teeth and said, Are you trying to get rid of me after using me now?

Yes! Are you sure you want to tag along? Dont forget, you were kidnapped here, Im letting you go now, you should be happy! said Ye Lang coldly.

I dont want to follow you but Im upset that youre just leaving me like this, said Li Yue bluntly. She was slightly hurt by how Ye Lang was treating her now even though she didnt plan to continue following him around.

Li Yue once thought to continue learning from Ye Lang to achieve a breakthrough but she felt that she seemed to hit a wall. Even if she did continue to follow Ye Lang around she wouldnt improve much.

Most importantly, after leaving Soaring Sky, Ye Lang didnt really teach her much. Whenever she asked him something, he just replied with a yeah, thats close or looks good.

Ye Lang did plan to nurture Li Yue as a warrior but only when it was convenient for him which wasnt now. Moreover, he taught Li Yue more than many others would ever get.

Li Yue knew that and was already satisfied with what she had so she didnt plan to continue with Ye Lang.

Then, you can go have fun around here, if you ever get lost just mention my name, you see, Im quite famous here, said Ye Lang. He was saying the truth, many people in this area knew him.

Even without the incident with the chief, Ye Lang was already well known but after that incident, especially what happened yesterday, he was a hot topic among them.

Im not you, okay? Im a captain of the guard, of an empire! I wont get lost!! said Li Yue, she continued, I want to follow you cause fun things always happen to you.

Throughout their journey, including what happened in the Soaring Sky Empire, Li Yue was sure of one thing her life could be much more than it was now if she stayed beside him.

I dont think its fun! said Ye Lang.

Well, it would be weird if you found it fun.

Tigress and Li Yues eyes met, they could read each others thoughts at that moment and they both smiled.

Sure, you continue walking, I still have more things to ask! said Li Yue as she finally reached up to Ye Lang.

What? asked Ye Lang.

So, is my Tianji armour different now? asked Li Yue in a serious tone.

Yes, in addition to its previous functions, now, when someone attacks you, itll inject poison into the enemys body. The poison is hard to cure so even if you didnt manage to kill them, the poison will! said Ye Lang.

Really? Li Yue was still in doubt. She did mostly believe what he said because Ye Lang had no reason to lie to her.

Of course! I told you before, doing this will benefit you by upgrading the armour, replied Ye Lang, he told her this before but she didnt listen to him then.

If that was the case, why didnt you tell me earlier. It was a win-win situation, there was no need for all the fuss, murmured Li Yue.

Ye Lang ignored the comment.

If you didnt get the armour, what would you do? Was there no other way to save Taiyas father? Li Yue got pissed from looking at Ye Langs aloof expression so she asked a more sensitive question.

Tigress who was just enjoying the show looked intently at Ye Lang now, she really wanted to hear his answer.

There is but this was the best way to do it. The other way would have some side effects, answered Ye Lang.

So, there was another way!

Tigress smiled, she had full faith in Ye Lang. She believed that he had a solution for every problem, his past told no less.

Previously, when Ye Lang would purposely use different treatments to test them out. For most of the cases, the effects were anticipated by him. When it wasnt, well, the patient just had bad luck.

However, Ye Lang only used the wicked to test these treatments. He wanted to teach them a lesson so what he was doing wasnt something bad.

What are the side effects? asked Li Yue.

The lightest one would be his blood vessels getting injured but even then it would take him a long time to recover and it would not cure for the rest of his life! replied Ye Lang.

If the chief could choose, he would never want to live with that side effect. He would rather stay in the ice for a few years and wait for a better cure.

Did you think it was worth it to risk your life going into Soaring Sky? asked Li Yue suddenly.

She had a point, Ye Lang could have used another way to save the chief and the people would have been equally grateful to him.

Any other doctor would have chosen the other safer option, even if they wanted the best option, they would have let someone else go retrieve the armour for them.

Ye Lang really didnt need to risk his life!!

Worth it! As a doctor, it is my job to do the best for my patients! replied Ye Lang.

It seemed that Ye Lang really took pride in his profession.

Just say it, you did it for Tigress, dont make excuses. If it was anyone else, would you have done it? Li Yue tried to break down his pride.

I I would let someone else prepare the items I needed said Ye Lang.

Young master said Tigress as she looked at Ye Lang, tears welling up her eyes.

Dont idolise me, I just went out to play. Zhao Yarou has nothing on me! said Ye Lang casually.

Yes, my young master is the best. Nothing can beat you, said Tigress while smiling.

Of course! said Ye Lang as he nodded with pride. The talented young man only has eyes for the sky and paid no attention to anything beneath him.
