Zhan Hanyun: "..."
Dong Huiying: "..."
Lao Si, Liang Haoming: "..."
The expressions of the three were astonishingly uniform at this mont, all showing a wooden blankness.
At that mont, there was a clanging sound.
Inside the room, Tie Yi and several "Tie Slaves," originally standing guard by Gold Respect’s bedside, thought Weiyuan Hall was under attack. They didn’t even consider the possibility of a good outco and assud that the forces previously pursuing them had broken in. They each drew their longswords, ready to fight.
But then Tie Yi suddenly paused, "Eldest husband?"
"Uh?"
Dong Huiying indicated.
She seed, a bit confused?
Tie Yi: "Quickly put away your weapons, lest you injure the Eldest husband!"
As an example, Tie Yi sheathed his longsword neatly and decisively.
Afterward, Tie Yi strode forward and knelt on one knee, saluting the girl outside the window: "Subordinate Tie Yi, pays respect to the Eldest husband!"
Dong Huiying: "..."
No, she was still very confused.
So confused she couldn’t be more confused!
***
Zhan Hanyun had soone repair the window that Lao Si had damaged, and the group—including Gold Respect, who was still unconscious—moved to another, quieter room.
Now, Dong Huiying sat by the bedside, gently removing the mask from the man’s face only to see his handso and elegant features with a tinge of purple in the green.
Her expression suddenly darkened.
"He..."
She turned to look at Zhan Hanyun and Tie Yi, certain that Zhan Hanyun harbored no ill will towards her, and had earlier revealed her identity with a single phrase.
Zhan Hanyun had called her "Marshal," while Tie Yi was Gold Respect’s... no, Liang Zhichen’s subordinate, Tie Yi was her "Doctor’s" man?
Her expression had beco sowhat complicated.
Zhi Chen...
Gently stroking the man’s handso face, his temperature was very cold, causing her heart aching pain.
He had hid too many secrets, afraid to worry his brothers, and also afraid to worry her, enduring everything alone, bearing all burdens by himself.
Yet...
He had once said he wanted to be her rock, her strength, and she felt the sa way.
She also wanted to share his burden, but was it because she was too unreliable?
He always took everything upon himself, making it easier for everyone else, but in the process, he wore himself thin.
Tie Yi imdiately reported the incident of Gold Respect (Liang Zhichen) being poisoned with Gu, recounting every single detail.
Dong Huiying’s lips curved up slightly, "Is that so..."
Tie Yi was puzzled.
How could the Eldest husband still find leisure to jest here?
The Master cherished her like a priceless treasure, but she, did she really not care at all about the Master’s well-being?
Thinking this, Tie Yi quickly shook her head.
No, if the Eldest husband didn’t care, if she truly was indifferent, she wouldn’t have appeared here.
She shouldn’t suspect a noble heart with her petty thoughts!
From a brocade bag she carried, Dong Huiying produced a white Gu egg, the size of a sesa seed.
She took a dagger, cut open the skin on Zhi Chen’s wrist, and then implanted the Gu egg inside.
During this process, the protective Tie Yi wanted to intervene, but Zhan Hanyun’s eyes shone brightly, and she raised her hand to stop Tie Yi.
"This is a Lifesaving Gu. Everyone fears Gu upon hearing its na, yet few realize that The Arts of Witch Gu can be as salvation as well as malevolent. As long as this Lifesaving Gu exists, one’s life can be secured. Even if the injury is severe or the poison is deep, it will ensure that the condition does not worsen!"
There were rumors that the Lifesaving Gu was an amnesty from Lord Yama.
In other words, even if one foot had stepped through Hell’s door, as long as the Lifesaving Gu was there, it could hold onto that person’s life.
Zhan Hanyun, with vast knowledge and broad experience, also knew the Cultivation of the Lifesaving Gu was incredibly difficult, with legends stating it needed forty-nine different types of dicine Gu to cultivate a single Lifesaving Gu.
Therefore, her gaze towards Little Marshal also couldn’t help but carry a hint of wonder.
