Xie Qingyao's eyes moved slightly.
She saw that He Zheng's complexion looked much better than before, but his robe was stained with blood, and his murderous aura was even stronger.
When He Zheng was tying her cloak, Xie Qingyao raised her hand to wipe the blood from the side of his face.
"It's a bit dirty in here," she said.
