Rumble...
The sound of helicopter rotors seed to ring out from the sky.
Am I hallucinating?
Xiyan strained to open her eyelids and looked toward the sky.
Not far away, it also seed like the voices of search and rescue personnel were calling out.
Soone’s coming...
Soone’s coming!
But she no longer had the strength to call for help.
The will to survive forced Xiyan to sit up with difficulty and pull out her phone from her pocket.
With trembling fingers, she turned on the flashlight app, pointing it toward the sky—on, off, on, off.
Please, notice .
I’m here, right here!!
On the helicopter, Ou Jue’s sharp gaze swept past the area where Xiyan was trapped, only to abruptly snap back.
That glimr of light... what is that??
He gave a firm command, "Land the helicopter at the three-o’clock position behind us. Move quickly!"
The pilot didn’t dare question him. After circling in mid-air to change direction, the helicopter began to descend steadily.
"Open the cabin door!"
"Young Master Ou, this is too dangerous. Please wait until I land properly before—"
"I said, open it!" His voice allowed no argunt.
The pilot shivered slightly and had no choice but to obediently open the cabin door.
Even with a short drop to the ground remaining, Ou Jue leapt out directly against the wind.
The wind stirred by the rotors tousled his jet-black short hair. His eyes were resolute, and his black tie fluttered against his chest, exuding an air of unrestrained coolness.
Yin Qianze called out, "Ou Jue, be careful!"
Despite the warning, Yin Qianze also followed suit, jumping out before the helicopter had fully landed.
The two young n, one leading and the other close behind, ran swiftly toward the faint SOS signals in the distance.
Over on Xiyan’s side, she no longer even had the strength to hold onto the flashlight. Her phone dropped to the ground and went dark.
Her head felt dizzy, so dizzy.
She couldn’t go on anymore... she really couldn’t go on anymore...
Her thoughts began to scatter bit by bit, as her mind was gradually engulfed by a dazzling white haze...
"Xia Xiyan!" A commanding voice roared from afar.
Imdiately following, the sound of soone sprinting toward her reached her ears.
Her consciousness seed to concentrate into a single pinpoint!
That voice was...
Ou Jue!
It was as if fresh energy had been injected into her veins. Hearing Ou Jue’s shout, Xiyan’s eyes burned with emotion. Summoning strength from sowhere unknown, she managed to call out hoarsely, "Ou Jue, I’m here..."
For the first ti, Ou Jue felt his composure utterly crumble.
The trees surrounding him overlapped in dark shadows, enclosing him and disorienting his sense of direction completely.
The calm and unshakable deanor he had always prided himself on shattered in that very instant.
Where? Where is she?!
Yin Qianze was slightly more composed than Ou Jue. Faintly hearing Xiyan’s voice, he pointed to the side, "Over there!"
Ou Jue’s piercingly dark eyes snapped to the indicated direction, and he strode forward with long strides.
Looking down the slope, he finally saw Xiyan, who was barely conscious.
Ou Jue’s expression darkened. Without a second thought, he slid recklessly down the slope!
