Chapter 8 ('continued)
Shang Guan Jing is unprepared for the hit and alh the shoulder Through a haze of pain, she hears so Zhu!”
That should be Yan Ying and through her blurry eyes, she sees that he has subdued the other attackers With Da shi+ Jie's sword in her shoulder and Er shi+ Ge behind her, Yan Ying should have sufficient ti Jin is safe, thank goodness…
She falls forould have kissed the ground if not for a hand that catches her before her face contacts with the ground The same hand pushes her to sit down on the floor and as she looks up, she thinks she sees Feng Jin But it cannot be him The man in front of her is as remote as an ice sculpture with no emotions whatsoever, except for his eyes that are so cold, that they are like the frozen rocks at the mountain peak
She shs out a mouthful of blood She tries to turn her face away but some of her blood spurts onto his face, just above his nice-looking lips
”Why are you crying?”
”Leave… quickly”
