The two entered the inner tent and sat down facing each other. Su Wan took out medicine from the pharmacy and said while treating the patient, "Fortunately, it's not a comminuted fracture. I'll give you some simple treatment first. You'll need surgery later. It must hurt a lot, right?"

Wei Jingzhuo did not respond.

Su Wan thought Wei Jingzhuo was in a lot of pain, so she took out some painkillers and looked up, only to meet Wei Jingzhuo's gaze.

His gaze was full of tenderness, pity, and admiration.

"I'm already like this, and you still like looking at me?" she whispered. "There are prettier girls out there, why don't you look at me?"

They went to the capital but didn't see Bai Zhiyi, and they still didn't see her at the military camp. Given Bai Zhiyi's personality, it's impossible that she didn't go with Wei Jingzhuo when he went on the expedition. The only possibility is that she failed to succeed.

Wei Jingzhuo said, "No matter what you become, I will only like to see you."

A sweet feeling welled up in her heart, and the oppression and torment she had endured on the island for so many days were instantly melted away by this sweetness.

“Nonsense,” she shoved the pills into Wei Jingzhuo’s mouth and grabbed the water glass from the table. “Drink your medicine now, I have other things to do.”

Wei Jingzhuo took a sip of water, swallowed the pill, and pressed her hand to his lips, asking, "Are we going to Zhang Ying's place?"

“Don’t sacrifice everyone’s lives anymore,” Su Wan said. “It’s not worth letting so many people die for me alone.”

Wei Jingzhuo closed his eyes and remained silent, two lines of tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

Wei Jingzhuo rarely shed tears; when he did, it meant he was extremely sad. Su Wan felt a pang of heartache seeing this and reached out to hug Wei Jingzhuo.

"Ah Jin, don't cry, it will make me sad if you cry."

Her heart was breaking, but she couldn't shed a tear.

She poured all her energy into building a raft on Emerald Island so that she could see Wei Jingzhuo again. She only hoped to die peacefully in her lover's arms, but she never expected that Wei Jingzhuo would attack the sacred site to save her.

She only confided in Chu Mingyao, and it's clear that Chu Mingyao revealed these secrets, which led to the current situation.

To say that she was so selfless as to want to sacrifice herself would be a lie; she wanted to live more than anyone else.

The crux of the problem lies in the gap between the family of divine healers and this world—the gap between gods and mortals. She simply couldn't think of any way to win. Even if all the countries in this world united, it would be impossible to defeat that giant crab robot.

What a colossal monster it was! Its body was as tall as a thirty-story building. Judging from the massive, smoking crater on the battlefield, the cannons on its arms could destroy a city with just a few shots.

This isn't a medical lab; it's a war machine.

If Yama (the King of Hell) wants someone dead at midnight, he will not let them live until dawn. The sacred land is the underworld, and Zhang Ying is Yama. Even if thousands upon thousands die, it cannot bring her back to life; all their deaths would be in vain.

Wei Jingzhuo didn't say anything, but just hugged her tightly: "I'll go with you."

Su Wan said, "That place is too dangerous..."

Before she could finish speaking, Wei Jingzhuo kissed her lips. After a deep kiss, he said, "In this life and the next, we will never be apart."

This was Wei Jingzhuo's vow: he and she would be together in life and in death.

Su Wan was moved and took Wei Jingzhuo's hand: "Okay, husband, let's go."
