There was a dried blood mark from her earlobe down to her neck, revealing the wound that had been scratched open by the beast's claw.
Mo Shisheng's skin was fair and delicate; even a slight pinch would cause it to turn red, let alone the fact that it was bleeding, indicating that her injury was extremely serious.
A chorus of gasps, some loud and some soft, rose from the crowd of onlookers.
"I never expected that Shangguan Yan, who looks so frail, would remain so silent despite suffering such severe injuries!"
"I saw blood seeping out from around her feet and hands..."
"Yes, I saw it too..."
Gradually, the conversation in the crowd turned to Mo Shisheng's wounds, with most of the speakers being men. Mo Shisheng was delicate, and standing alone, she only made people feel more sorry for her.
Hearing more and more people speaking up for Mo Shisheng, Shangguan Qi swayed slightly, her legs went weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
This unintentional action caused Shangguan Qi's school uniform hem to be pulled open slightly, revealing a leg stained with blood.
Upon discovering the wound was exposed, Shangguan Qi immediately tried to cover it with her clothes. However, many people had already seen this and couldn't help but comment, "Shangguan Qi's foot is injured too, why didn't she cover it up earlier?"
"No wonder her face was so pale. I always thought she was weak. It turns out she was injured."
"He lost so much blood, it's obviously much worse than Shangguan Yan's. I don't know what Shangguan Yan is thinking, trying to gain sympathy with her wounds!"
"..."
Listening to these discussions, Shangguan Qi lowered her eyes slightly, a crystal tear sliding down her cheek, but a glint of shrewdness flashed in her eyes.
She spoke softly, her voice extremely gentle, like a white lotus ravaged by a storm, "Don't treat Yan'er like this, she's injured too..."
"Shangguan Qi, she treated you so badly and you still speak kindly to her? She won't be grateful to you, so why bother!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Qi trembled slightly, biting her lower lip tightly until it turned pale. "She...she's my sister..."
"You treat her like a younger sister, but does she treat you like an older sister?"
When Mo Shisheng saw the "blood" on Shangguan Qi's leg, she raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Shangguan Qi had quite a few ideas. If she used them for good, she wouldn't just be at the third level of Foundation Establishment.
What a pity...
Thinking about how smug Shangguan Qi was becoming and how loud the slap in the face would be later, Mo Shisheng gently curled the corners of her lips and played along with Shangguan Qi, saying, "Shangguan Qi, I just told you to kneel down before I'd give you the Heart-Returning Pill, but you promised and didn't kneel. Do you think I'm breaking my promise?"
"Holy crap! Shangguan Yan, have you no shame?! Shangguan Qi is so badly injured, and you still expect her to kneel before you!"
"Shangguan Yan, how can scum like you still be alive?"
"Yeah, why don't you just die!"
Hearing the voices cursing her, Mo Shisheng felt no anger at all.
Why?
They're cursing Shangguan Yan, but her real name is Mo Shisheng.
Thinking of this, Mo Shisheng smiled and her eyes curved into crescents, filled with the purest light, so clear and captivating.
Because of the mask obscuring her face, Mo Shisheng couldn't see clearly. But at that moment, she burst out laughing. Her laughter was clear and melodious, like the sound of silver bells, which made those who were uttering the most vicious words stop.
She looked at Mo Shisheng with her mouth slightly open, her eyes filled with disbelief!
