On the slender back of the woman, five or six arrows were embedded, and the blood gushing out quickly stained her clothes and the withered grass beside her.
The moment she fell, Xuan Yi, swift as a ghost, drove the murderous intent she emitted back inside the door.
Tang Xiaobai dashed to her side but dared not extend a hand to touch her.
In just a moment of hesitation, Luo Xiong reached her first, kneeling to support Cheng Zi, whose life or death was unknown.
"Don't touch, be careful not to aggravate her injuries!" Tang Xiaobai shouted.
Turning around, he urgently ordered, "Ride fast back to the capital and get a doctor!"
Turning back again, Cheng Zi had already opened her eyes.
The once nearly lifeless person, upon seeing Luo Xiong, showed a sudden burst of light in her eyes, as if a dying glow was rekindled.
She extended her hand to Luo Xiong, trembling, yet very firm.
"Luo Lang... hold me..."
Weak, sorrowful.
