Without fear, State Teacher resumes his defense against the enemies that had already come before himself, but instead of a harsh look in his face though, heâs faintly smiling this time around: âIf my estimates are correct, your men only have another five minute left before the summoning ends. Although I canât defeat them on my own, but drawing this fight out is well within my means...â
Just five minutes, afterwards Xiao Wan will be safe....
Under the embrace of her future husband, the demon princess didnât even dare to move. She knows all too well how weak her strength was in comparison to all these people, therefore she didnât want to cause any more trouble by acting careless or rash. Itâs just that when her pupils landed on those knives and swords contacting the very person protecting herself, this girl just couldnât resist shrinking those eyes in.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Thereâs blood!
âNo!!!â Voice cried out with great pain and sadness, echoing out across this sea of roses and sending the pedals fluttering across the air.
Di Xiao Wan hated the fact that others were dying or hurting because of herself. First it was Qiu Moon self-destructing for her own sake, and now State Teacher was bleeding across his body in her stead. Itâs all because of her own inability to fight!
âWhatâs going on?â The two green eyes showing within that haze appears troubled after the repeated delay: âWhy is he not dead yet with those wounds?â
With so many wounds, how is he able to stand there and fight still?
Despite being in his decrepit state after succumbing to so much attacks to the point where his bones were showing in some areas, State Teacher did not speak, only firmly shielding the precious treasure behind himself using his own flesh and body in the literal sense. Heâs on his last leg and reacted sloppily, but even so, those arms continued to swing in retaliation against the foe.
This sluggishness didnât escape the assailants though. Noticing the opening, one of the attackers promptly slashed down at the manâs shoulder and sent a splatter of blood gushing out of that wound. Since Di Xiao Wan stood directly behind the guy, she naturally became the recipient of that reddish fluid. Specifically, her eyes were where the blood landed, which dyed her world a bloody red as a result.
âState Teacher!â Di Xiao Wan cried out again after seeing how that powerful back had begun to sway backwards. Without thought, she reached out with her arms to support him from the rear only to find a storm of blades coming down at them from above.
She didnât know what else to do then aside from closing her eyes for whatâs to come. However, the expected scythe upon her life never came, only the falling sparkles of twinkling dust once she reopened her eyes.
âIs it time?â The hazeâs shrouded appearance somehow gave off a look of displeasure. Gloomily locking onto the demon princes: âI may not be able to kill you today, but that guyâs life is as good as done. Di Cang will have lost a right arm!â
