Those who had witnessed Mo Shisheng using her wounds to gain sympathy felt their faces burning with shame. Such a deep wound—how could someone with only a second-stage Qi Refining cultivation level have managed to hold on until now without collapsing?
Honestly, if I had suffered that kind of injury, I probably would have collapsed to the ground long ago.
However, the person in question seemed completely oblivious to the pain. She gently curved her lips into a smile, her eyes shimmering with a captivating light, and extended her arm towards Shangguan Qi, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, cousin."
"this……"
Shangguan Qi was slightly taken aback. She never expected that Mo Shisheng would suffer such a serious injury, and that the wound was also poisoned!
Looking at the arm extended in front of her, Shangguan Qi felt dizzy from the sight of that fair skin, and then she was pulled into a broad embrace.
Qi Yujin looked at Mo Shisheng with complicated eyes, "Qi'er just used up a lot of blood to save Shangguan Xuan. You seem to be in good health. Why don't you hold on for a few more days and let Qi'er recover?"
"Oh."
Hearing Qi Yujin's words, Mo Shisheng almost laughed in anger, and immediately reached out and pulled Shangguan Qi out of his arms.
Then, a flash of silver light appeared in Mo Shisheng's hand, and the fabric on Shangguan Qi's originally "blood-soaked" leg was cut open by the dagger, revealing a patch of intact skin.
Mo Shisheng was so fast that Shangguan Qi couldn't react in time. However, when she felt a chill on her legs, she was stunned and hurriedly bent down to cover them.
But no matter how hard she tried to cover it up, it was all in vain; her legs had already been seen.
"If Shangguan Qi wasn't injured, where did the blood on her leg come from?"
"Exactly! She just cried her eyes out and bled to save Shangguan Xuan, but there wasn't even a wound; the blood just floated down from above."
"I think Shangguan Qi is two-faced, he's disgusting!"
"Yes, maybe nine out of ten of her words are lies! Don't you remember that Shangguan Qi always wanted to give Shangguan Xuan a Qi-restoring pill? Shangguan Yan already said that if Shangguan Xuan had taken that Qi-restoring pill, he would have died long ago!"
"That Shangguan Qi is too vicious! That's his own brother!"
"..."
More and more words reached Shangguan Qi's ears, and her body trembled slightly as she thought that everything she had carefully planned had been destroyed by Mo Shisheng.
She glared fiercely at Mo Shisheng, but didn't utter a single word.
However, things weren't that simple. Mo Shisheng lazily toyed with the dagger in her hand, saying each word slowly and deliberately, "Two years ago, I exhausted all my cultivation to save you. My dantian was destroyed, and my meridians were severed. Do you still remember?"
"..."
Shangguan Qi trembled violently, seemingly unable to believe that Mo Shisheng would bring up something from two years ago.
But after the intense fear subsided, Shangguan Qi calmed down. She comforted herself, telling herself that no one except the Shangguan family knew about it, no one knew...
"Yan'er, your dantian can't gather spiritual power to begin with, so how could you possibly exhaust your cultivation to save me?" Shangguan Qi, as expected of a white flower that had cultivated into a spirit, quickly calmed down.
Mo Shisheng had anticipated this, so she said softly, word by word, "Two years ago, in early spring, a Foundation Establishment Grand Perfection cultivator was born in the Qi Kingdom, but his traces were quickly buried. Do you know why?"
