Chapter 70. What exactly is their relationship? ...
Sang Ji suddenly stepped forward, facing the perilous situation where Liu Jiao was gripping her bow and arrow tightly, with an arrow about to be shot at his vital point.
He suddenly withdrew the sword from his hand and placed it at his waist.
He walked over step by step, pressing closer and closer.
His expression was firm, stubbornly refusing to back down.
Liu Jiao looked left and right, and kept backing away:
"Don't come any closer!"
"If you come any closer, I'll shoot you and kill you!"
Just as the two were about to get close, Sang Ji suddenly made his move.
He gripped the arrowhead, and with a tremendous force, pulled Liu Jiao's hand, along with the arrow and her hand, and plunged it fiercely into his heart—
Liu Jiao panicked.
The arrow went astray because of her erratic movements.
It didn't pierce Sang Ji's heart.
But it plunged deep into Sang Ji's chest.
Blood seeped out like water.
Liu Jiao was terrified.
Her hands trembled uncontrollably.
He hurriedly dropped the crossbow and covered Sang Ji's injured chest with both hands.
"Are you crazy?!"
Are you crazy?!
Liu Jiao was so anxious she didn't know what to do, so she could only scold him.
Sang Ji grabbed her hand instead, and Liu Jiao was enveloped by his large, calloused palm.
"If you've calmed down a bit, let's go home, okay?"
"Your injuries need to be treated quickly."
Taking this opportunity, Sang Ji pulled her into his arms, stroking her head with one hand to comfort her.
He drew his sword, disregarding his own life and the pursuit of fame and fortune, and slaughtered the remaining survivors.
They walked towards the gate of the mansion.
Liu Jiao was held tightly in Sang Ji's arms, and he carried her, hanging her crossbow on his shoulder.
Liu Jiao tried her best to keep her distance from him.
Not touching his burning, warm color.
This parting will last for several months.
Liu Jiao was clearly distant and wary of him.
"Don't move yet, you're too weak. We can't kill them all right now, I'll do it."
We arrived at the gate of the mansion.
The prefect happened to arrive and saw Sang Ji.
The prefect stopped and waited respectfully outside the gate, accompanied by a group of disciplined soldiers.
Crescent Fox was clearly enraged by the killing of his trusted confidant and was angry with Sang Ji.
So they waited in the carriage, but no one came down to greet Sang Ji; their faces remained stiff.
It's obvious they're waiting for Sang Ji to coax them.
Sang Ji held the weakened Liu Jiao and stood still.
Perhaps it was his subconscious concern over the years, or perhaps it was because he had always acted uprightly and had no guilty conscience.
He glanced in the direction of the Crescent Fox, and paused for a moment.
But it was in that instant that Chen Chi noticed, giving him an opening.
"Give Jiaojiao to me."
Sang Ji snapped out of her reverie and froze.
Liu Jiao also put in her best effort.
Even though she was not in her right mind, she still subconsciously reached out her hand to Chen Chi.
"Lord Sang, you are still bleeding. It's best for two patients not to be together."
Chen Chi scoffed, "Besides, the princess still needs an adult to coax her, so you shouldn't hesitate."
Sang Ji was dragged away by the doctor.
Liu Jiao was carried away by Chen Chi.
A doctor and a soft couch were brought along on the spot.
The prefect had considered everything very carefully.
Sang Ji was having his arrows taken.
Doctors warned, "Removing the arrow will be very painful, please bear with it."
Sang Ji's mind was not on his injuries at all.
Instead, he kept looking at Liu Jiao, wondering if she might be infected.
Unexpectedly, he saw Jiaojiao in Chen Chi's arms, without the distance she had shown towards him before.
Instead, they held each other tightly with great trust.
And what about Chen Chi?
Even after Jiaojiao was placed on the soft couch, Chen Chi still held onto her hand tightly, showing great concern.
Even as the doctors were about to examine the injuries, he was still busy running around, which Sang Ji considered completely unnecessary.
Like a useless, mentally challenged person.
Physicians specialize in their own fields.
Chen Chi, that useless assistant, will only cause trouble.
What truly stirred Sang Ji's emotions was Chen Chi's earnest words to Jiao Jiao:
"I am fortunate to have met Jiaojiao again, and from now on I will never let her go."
Sang Ji frowned, deeply puzzled.
Why make a vow?
What exactly is their relationship?
While his thoughts were in turmoil, Sang Ji's arrow was suddenly pulled out.
He groaned.
His gaze remained fixed on the two people's tightly clasped hands.
I was shocked, angry, and furious.
