Chapter 849

Looking at the crazed face before him, Mu Xiaojiu was in pain from the poison coursing through his body, but his gaze softened even more at that moment.

She was right; even if she were to leave now, she wouldn’t know the direction or the path and wouldn’t be able to make it.

If she carelessly got lost in the forest again, that would be a true tragedy.

He had been crazy as well, thinking of letting her leave on her own earlier.

“Don’t go, just lie down and rest with me for a while. Nangong Xu and the others will arrive soon.”

He reached out to hold her hand, but his vision blurred increasingly, and he couldn’t even find where her hand was.

Baili Xia glared at him, her heart aching terribly!

Clearly unable to hold on any longer, he still pretended to be fine in front of her.

He didn’t even realize he couldn’t see properly now, his face completely darkened.

If this continued, even if Nangong Xu arrived and cured his poisoning,

if they waited even a moment too long, the toxins would damage his internal organs, and he would suffer lasting effects even if he recovered.

Moreover, who could guarantee that Nangong Xu had the antidote or any other lifesaving medicine on him?

Just in case…

Suddenly, her eyes brightened; without thinking further, she brought her wrist to her lips and bit down hard.

“Girl…” Mu Xiaojiu tried to stop her, but he was too weak.

Even though he didn’t know what she planned to do, when he saw the blood dripping from her wrist, the sight was painful enough to break his heart.

“Let go!” he ordered in a hoarse voice, but regretfully, he had hardly any strength left.

“Uncle, drink this.” After biting her own wrist, Baili Xia immediately helped him up and pressed her wound to his lips.

“Treat the…” He couldn’t finish saying “wound” before her wrist pressed down harder.

Blood flowed over his lips, sliding effortlessly down his throat without him even needing to swallow.

Mu Xiaojiu was frantic, his eyes reddening as he tried to tightly press his lips together, refusing to drink her blood so she could tend to her wound properly.

However, the girl, frantic herself, returned him to the ground.

She grabbed his mouth, forcibly prying his lips apart.

“You dare…” One gulp after another, blood slid down his mouth.

Mu Xiaojiu was weak all over, and at this moment, he couldn’t even manage the simple act of not drinking her blood!

He could only watch helplessly as she bit herself over and over again, forcing him to drink the blood…

Wasn’t she terrified of pain?

Whenever she was slightly hurt, didn’t her eyes always turn red?

But now, she had the courage to inflict this pain upon herself!

How much blood does one body hold?

If this continued, could she even survive?

And the girl, she was still running a fever…

The strength in his fingertips slowly returning, Mu Xiaojiu wasn’t in the mood to think about why her blood could actually detoxify him; he was merely focusing on regulating his breath, waiting.

Waiting to regain strength, waiting to have the power to stop her!

But Baili Xia seemed to be unable to wait.

As she bit her wrist again, creating another wound, just as her hand reached his lips, everything in front of her began to blur.

Dizzy and unsteady, she hardly had any strength left in her body.

The only part of her that still had any strength was the hand pressed against Mu Xiaojiu’s lips…
