Chapter 947: Only This WayÂ

Translator: Vesper

Xiao Qi Feng looked at Old Hei’s figure as he walked out and although he wanted to refuse, he still followed in the end.

After both of them left, the two imperial doctors carefully checked Xiao Qi Tian and they were finally relieved after knowing that there really was no problem.

Great, Prince Qi was fine. They would not have to worry about being punished too.

Recalling all those things that had happened before, they had really thought that the Emperor and Prince Qi had quarreled until they hated each other, but now it seems that there should only be a simple misunderstanding between the two.

“Let’s go to a quiet place.” Old Hei ignored Mu Xue who was standing outside and he turned his head to speak to Xiao Qi Feng behind him.

Xiao Qi Feng really could not believe Old Hei’s incredible medical skills. He glanced at Old Hei and then took him to the Imperial Study Room.

Even Nan Zhuang was requested to leave so that only the two of them were the only ones left in the Imperial Study Room.

“What’s wrong with your health?” Old Hei asked directly.

Xiao Qi Feng’s lips twitched into a faint smile and his gaze was slightly dazzled.

“Don’t you already know?”

“The last time I saw you, your condition was not this serious. Now it seems that you only have a year left to live.” Old Hei snorted coldly and said.

Xiao Qi Feng pursed his lips tightly. He was not surprised to hear Old Hei’s words.

“I know.”

“You know?”

“Yes, my physical functions began to decline a year ago. I used to cough up blood around six months ago, but that was only occasional. It is now basically on a daily basis. Since then, I know that my time is running out but the Xiao Empire is still in a mess. I need to settle the problems then pass everything over to Qi Tian.” Xiao Qi Feng said weakly while totally disregarding his health.

Old Hei looked at Xiao Qi Feng and his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

“So what you did to Tian Chang and also Tong Bao Zhai, was on purpose?”

“Yes, only this way can Tian Chang leave and avoid everything that is to happen in Xiao Empire. What I hope is that when the Xiao Empire has gone through the change, he can help Qi Tian. As for Tong Bao Zhai, I can only say that I am afraid of the consequences too. I only did that because I wanted to reduce other people’s focus on Tong Bao Zhai and let them think that Tong Bao Zhai had gone through a huge deal after this matter and would no longer be a threat to them.” Only in this way could Tong Bao Zhai still be at its peak after the empires go through a reshuffling of powers.

Of course, he was also a little selfish as he hoped that Ning Meng Yao could help Qi Tian when he needed it.

Old Hei frowned at Xiao Qi Feng. He disagreed with his approach.

“Why didn’t you tell them all this?”

“I could not say or they would have been in danger. It didn’t take a day or two for my health to fall this low. I can only keep them away from me and make it look like we have cut all ties. Only in this way could I protect them.” Qiao Tian Chang’s fighting ability, Ning Meng Yao’s strength, and Qi Tian’s identity had all fallen into the focus of those people.

If he had not acted this way, then they would have started attacking Qiao Tian Chang and the others. If that was the case then him dying would not resolve the problem.

“Then, are you looking for Tian Chang because of this?” Old Hei asked while frowning.

Xiao Qi Feng nodded. “I only did it for those people to see. I know that Mu Chen will definitely not tell me and that is why I made a scene and put them under house arrest and then attacked them when they tried to escape.”

Originally, he really did not want to attack them and the last three arrows would not have caused too much injury to them, only some skin scratches. But who knew that Xiao Qi Tian would jump out to block the arrows for them.

“Those people?”

“Yes, the people who came here from the West Coast are not just from the Xiao family. There is one more force. That person is very powerful and very mysterious. They had already poisoned me before even coming to look for me.” By that time, he was already incurable. The only thing he could do was to protect Xiao Qi Tian and the others. Only in this way would they be able to compete with those people.

Old Hei looked at Xiao Qi Feng and suddenly felt that this child also had his difficulties.

“My actual time left is less than three months, right?”
