Chapter 1140

As Baili Xia’s arm wound bled slower and slower, and it took a long time for a few drops to fall, she picked up the dagger and slashed again.

Mu Xiaojiu couldn’t see her actions, but he could hear them clearly.

Dongfang Jin watched in pain as she harmed herself, yet now Dongfang Ji seemed really better thanks to Baili Xia’s blood; the blackness on his face had dissipated significantly.

Her blood could truly save Ji!

He felt heartache for the harm she inflicted on herself, but human life is paramount, and this moment was critical for Ji’s survival.

What should he choose?

To let his own brother live, he could only watch in distress as the girl he loved most repeatedly cut her own arm.

Baili Xia’s vision began to blur not because of tears, but because the severe blood loss was nearly too much for her to bear.

“Look… look at his lips, see if there’s still any black hue in their texture?”

She couldn’t see clearly anymore and could only ask Dongfang Jin and Mu Ziying who were nearby.

“A bit rosier, but still very pale,” Mu Ziying immediately responded.

Dongfang Jin took a closer look and confirmed that Dongfang Ji’s lip color was improving, seizing Baili Xia’s wrist: “That’s enough.”

“Check… check his pupils,” Baili Xia said hoarsely.

Baili Xia, after all, was Nangong Xu’s disciple, and here, she was the only one with medical knowledge.

Dongfang Jin immediately complied, took several careful looks, and frantically said, “I can’t tell anything.”

Baili Xia exhaled, if pupil dilation was obvious and Jin couldn’t see it, it meant Dongfang Ji was alright.

Baili Xia wanted to say more, but Mu Xiaojiu suddenly turned around, embracing her tightly.

The bloody wound on her arm once again stung his eyes.

With a hiss, Mu Xiaojiu tore off his shirt sleeve and gently wrapped it around her arm.

“We need… to get to the hospital quickly, only a thorough examination will confirm if he’s indeed alright.”

“Shut up!” Mu Xiaojiu hummed and cut her off.

Not even looking at her own state now!

Already so weak she could hardly speak clearly, yet still caring about the life and death of others, what a girl!

What was he to do with her?

Did she really want to painfully kill his heart alive?

When they dismounted, Zhui Feng had already run out of the woods to guide their people.

But for now, their people hadn’t yet arrived.

Only Mu Xiaoyao and Mu Lingchuan were left guarding them, and although they didn’t appear flustered, both were worried about potential oversights.

So nobody dared to be careless.

“These wolves are not from the hunting ground’s captive range.”

With a dagger in hand, guarding in front of Mu Xiaojiu and Baili Xia, Mu Xiaoyao suddenly spoke.

Mu Lingchuan also said, “Indeed, it seems these wild wolves have been raised and trained by someone. The poison on their fangs was intentionally applied.”

Mu Xiaojiu’s lips tightened, something cold flashing in his eyes.

Mu Lingchuan looked at Mu Ziying and asked, “Have you provoked any enemies recently?”

Mu Ziying was startled, quickly shook her head and said, “No, I’ve never provoked anyone.”

“Brother, are you suspecting… suspecting someone wants to kill me?” The thought immediately frightened Mu Ziying.

Recalling the dangerous fight with the wild wolves, her body chilled from panic.

Earlier, out of worry for Dongfang Ji, she had forgotten her pain.

Now, the pain from her wounds began to sting, causing tears to uncontrollably fall and instantly slide down.
