That was because Yue Yang realized that the person who had suddenly appeared behind him was the Principal that had promised him to save his sister. She was still wearing the same clothes just now, but she covered her face with a white veil. A trail of fresh blood flowed from her mouth, blossoming like fallen cherry petals. Yue Yang felt extremely guilty looking at that. She had forced her exhausted body to use her [Heart’s Cry] Inherent Skill in order to find his Fourth Mother… Right now, she must not have been able to find his sister, hence she switched over to Starved Dog Range instead… Yue Yang supported the beautiful Principal whose body was swaying back and forth, asking her softly, “Are you okay?”
“I’m okay. I am not injured, this is my old sickness. It’s nothing much.” The beautiful Principal who was covered in white veil consoled Yue yang instead, “Your Fourth Mother is alright. Wu Xia is protecting her in secret while Qian Qian and Luo Hua are waiting for an opportunity to save her. My body is weak, I couldn’t help much, so I stayed outside to wait for you. Go inside now, they would be reassured if you are with them!” The beautiful principal’s body had been trembling non-stop. When she spoke, the fresh blood dripping from the corner of her mouth stained her white veil with red.
“Wu Xia?” Yue Yang froze. Was that the mysterious beauty’s, who liked to read books, name?
Seeing that the beautiful Principal’s body was about to sway and fell to the ground, Yue yang immediately supported her up, placing his palms on her back and channeling his Innate Qi into her to help her heal her wounds.
The beautiful principal struggled weakly as she resisted, “You don’t have to waste your strength, my illness is already beyond cure. Just reserve your strength to battle for now, I would be fine if I go back and rest! I couldn’t find your sister, she should have already been brought back by the State Grandmaster… If you saw Wu Xia, don’t tell her that I have used my [Heart’s Cry] Inherent Skill. If she asked, just tell her that you did not come to see me at all…”
She had not finished speaking before her head slumped to the ground.
Yue Yang hurriedly hugged her in his embrace and channeled some Innate Qi into her.
The moment his Innate Qi circulated around her body, Yue Yang realized that this beautiful principal’s body was extremely weak and fragile, to the point that it was hard for him to believe. Even old geezers who had been lying in bed for decades drinking medicines everyday would still be stronger than her. Most importantly, Yue Yang realized that there was a kind of weird energy in her body that was absorbing her life energy non-stop. If it wasn’t for this weird energy in her body, she wouldn’t be so weak… Yue Yang’s Innate Qi that had been channeled into her body had also disappeared into thin air, completely absorbed by that energy. Only a small portion of his energy managed to stay within the beautiful principal’s body.
The beautiful principal slowly woke up. Her first reaction was to struggle out of Yue Yang’s embrace.
Her second action was to touch her face to check whether her white veil was still on.
After she realized that Yue Yang had not touched her veil, she seemed to sigh secretly. Yue Yang wanted to support her up, but the beautiful principal shook her hands adamantly and refused, “Don’t waste time on me anymore, quickly go and save your Fourth Mother! I can return home on my own, you don’t have to worry about me. My condition has been like this for a few decades, and I still have not died yet. I won’t die so easily… You, did you really not touch my veil?” The beautiful principal opened a teleportation scroll, but before she entered the teleportation gate, she suddenly asked with a weak, trembling voice.
“No!” Yue Yang shook his head.
Actually, he had sneaked a peek on the beautiful principal’s face just now, and realized that other than her deathly pale complexion, she was actually an unrivalled beauty.
