He got out of bed and dressed up in a hurry, wanting to go downstairs to have a look, but the door couldn’t be pushed open. Lin An had locked it from the outside.

Xi Ning was even more flustered. He tried all the methods, whether it was spiritual power or smashing things, the door just didn’t budge.

Not only the door, but he also couldn’t open the window. Lin An completely locked him here.

Xi Ning forced himself to calm down, thinking about what to do now.

He didn’t hear any other movement outside. The magic tower should not have been completely breached. Lin An might still be outside. He is a magician who has lived for such a long time, so he cannot die easily.

Just as he was comforting himself, footsteps finally sounded outside the door. Someone withdrew the magic barrier and opened the door.

Xi Ning stood there holding his breath and waited. Seeing Lin An’s familiar figure, he rushed over to hug him.

“Are you okay? I’m worried about you……”

Xi Ning looked at Lin An, and he was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual about him.

Lin An embraced him and went to the table, while replying, “It’s okay, don’t be afraid…… How long have you been awake?”

“Not long ago,” Xi Ning held Lin An’s hand tightly, angry and distressed, “Don’t use spells on me again, as I said, I want to go with you……”

Lin An gently pinched Xi Ning’s cheek, with imperceptible fatigue hidden in his eyes, “It’s too dangerous, how could I dare to take you there.”

“The head of the mercenary group, they won’t hurt me at least. I’ll explain it to them, and they’ll believe it……” Xi Ning didn’t know what Qiu Nian was doing. Lin An hesitated for a moment, and said, “It’s not the head of the mercenary group, it’s the other group of people.”

Xi Ning was stunned, and then realized, “Is it the group of people who came together with them?”

They were the ones who made the sudden attack yesterday. Xi Ning didn’t think too much about it. He thought they were on the side of the head of the mercenary group. Now that the Magic Tower is being attacked, what is the plan of the head of the mercenary group?

He didn’t know what was going on outside, so he couldn’t figure it out. Lin An put his arms around Xi Ning and kissed him on the lips, “It’s fine, don’t worry, let’s go downstairs and have something to eat?”

Xi Ning leaned in front of Lin An, “I have no appetite……”

He always felt that Lin An still had something to hide from him. When Lin An went out last night, he didn’t seem to be wearing the same clothes…… Xi Ning sniffed Lin An carefully, and noticed a faint smell of blood.

“Are you injured? Are you?” Xi Ning sniffed a few more times, confirmed that it was the smell of blood, and began to grope around Lin An.

When he touched Lin An’s right arm, Lin An frowned invisibly, “No, it’s someone else’s blood.”

He knew that Xi Ning was very sensitive to the smell of blood. After he came back, he hurriedly changed his clothes and washed them several times. He also used a healing technique to ensure that there was no abnormality before he came to see Xi Ning.

The wound opened again, Qiu Nian’s knife was probably smeared with poison.

The slight pain stimulated Lin An’s brain. He closed his eyes and tried to calm down the disturbed emotions. He hugged Xi Ning tightly so that he could not see his face, “It’s not my blood……”

Xi Ning was dubious, stretched out his arms to hug him, and asked, “Did the people outside leave?”

“They will leave soon.”

Lin An replied vaguely, and let go of Xi Ning after a while, “I’ll go and make you something to eat, just wait for me here.”

Xi Ning originally wanted to go downstairs with him, but Lin An asked him to wait in the bedroom. He will make some simple food and bring it up. Xi Ning nodded, “Okay.”

When Lin An went out, he continued to close the door tightly. Xi Ning sat for a while and felt something was wrong. He stepped forward and tried to push the door, but Lin An really locked the door again.

Xi Ning was so anxious that he turned around and raised the stool to smash the door, but Lin An came back again.

Like nothing had happened, he took some food and put it on the table, looking at the stool in Xi Ning’s hand, “What are you doing?”

Xi Ning silently put the stool away, with a bad expression on his face, “You have to lock the door even when you go downstairs? Do you still have something to hide from me……”

Lin An shrank his right hand subconsciously, and remained silent for a while, “I don’t want you to worry.”

“I won’t be worried if you don’t tell me?” Xi Ning tried to approach Lin An and held his hand, “Are you really injured? Let me see, okay? I know healing spells……”

Xi Ning gently comforted Lin An, which relieved his tense temples. He couldn’t tell whether he was affected by the poison on Qiu Nian’s knife or because of the black mist.

Lin An looked down at his right arm, and Xi Ning followed his line of sight, “Are you injured here?”

He asked Lin An to sit down, and rolled up the cuff of his right hand little by little. There was a wound on the inner side of his arm, and the blood that was oozing out turned black.
