859 Unexpected! 6
“Can the portal be opened again? Are we going to be locked in here forever?”
–
The more they discussed, the more flustered they became. Everyone was on edge.
“We’re so lucky that we have His Royal Highness with us!”
“Yes. Yes, that’s right. With His Royal Highness here, there’s no need to be afraid. I’m sure he’ll get us out of here.”
“But the question is: will His Royal Highness do that?”
–
That silenced everyone.
The crown prince had no obligation to do that. What was more, being helpful had never been in his nature… At that thought, the candidates began to panic again.
Feng Wu had no time for any of that. She was busy treating Gongsun Qing.
In his enraged state, Jun Linyuan hadn’t even thought about controlling his strength, which was why Gongsun Qing was so severely injured.
However, would Jun Linyuan lose control over a few drops of tea?
Looking up, Feng Wu saw the sky outside through the tent gap. It was overcast and the wind was howling. It looked ominous.
In this sort of situation, it was very likely that Gongsun Qing would become a burden to everyone else.
Now that the way out had been cut off… would Gongsun Qing die here?
Jun Linyuan would be the one to blame if that happened.
The only way for Gongsun Qing to make a quick recovery was to use Feng Wu’s blood.
More precisely, to use her blood which contained the internal elixir of that Frosty Night Beast.
Feng Wu took out her dagger without hesitation!
Thud!
Blood gushed out!
“Ah!”
Shi Xuan cried out in surprise and covered her eyes.
She had never expected Feng Wu to slash her wrist open!
“Xiao Wu!” Feng Xun cried out as well.
Feng Wu ordered. “Pry her mouth open!”
“Yes, of course —”
Feng Xun and Shi Xuan scurried to Gongsun Qing’s side and opened her mouth.
Feng Wu sighed inwardly as she fed her own blood to Gongsun Qing. She would never have to do this if it wasn’t for the internal elixir she had swallowed. This was all Jun Linyuan’s fault.
While Feng Wu’s mind was wandering off, Shi Xuan observed Feng Wu with conflicted feelings.
She recalled all the things Gongsun Qing had said about Feng Wu this whole time, and how Gongsun Qing had been showing off in front of the latter. But now, Feng Wu was saving Gongsun Qing at the cost of her own life…
Was Feng Wu really as bad as she was rumored to be?
If she was a bad person, then what did a good person look like?
Shi Xuan was bemused.
“Is that enough? Is it?”
Feng Wu had yet to comment on her blood loss before Feng Xun cried out first. His voice was trembling.
Feng Wu nodded after examining Gongsun Qing, then gave Feng Xun instructions. “Warm up the blood for her with your spiritual essence, then direct it to her injured internal organs. It should do the trick and repair them.”
Feng Wu swayed a little after those words.
She hadn’t fully recovered from her own blood loss earlier, and she had just given away some more. Her face was ghastly pale.
“Xiao Wu, you —”
Feng Xun doted on Feng Wu. Gongsun Qing was the last thing on his mind, and all he wanted to do was check up on his dear little sister.
However, Feng Wu shook her head. “You can’t let all my efforts go to waste.”
Feng Xun had no choice but to do as Feng Wu said.
Feng Wu’s face had drained of all color and she felt like she was going to black out. She sat down against the wall, crossed her legs, and rested in silence.
