Chapter 2146 [Shangxie] You did a great job
Xia Fuyi's movements were completely based on instinct.
When another soldier rushed towards her, she didn't even raise her eyes, but before her sword could pierce the man's body, a dark shadow descended before her eyes.
The terrifying sword energy surging with anger tore the soldier holding the sword in front of him apart.
A bright cold light flashed before her eyes, causing her to blink reflexively and then look up.
Changsun Chi stood in front of her with an expressionless face, but didn't even look at her. The sword in his hand was still dripping blood, but the next second it gently cut through the air and passed by her ear.
There was a sound of flesh breaking behind him.
There were still many people around who kept rushing over. Logically speaking, the situation was already dangerous, but Xia Fuyi suddenly gave up even her instinct.
She fell without warning, into a hard but warm embrace.
The man held her in one hand and chopped off one of her heads, then quickly retreated by touching the ground. The reinforcements who followed her had already left the battlefield, and the dull and lifeless battle situation changed in an instant.
The emperor has retreated from the canyon.
He helped Xia Fuyi sit down under the stone wall. His face was expressionless, but he gently placed her head in his arms.
Then he asked his subordinates to bring some water to moisten her dry and chapped lips.
Xia Fuyi looked at him with half-open eyes. Her light golden pupils seemed to be out of focus, but she was trying desperately to see clearly.
Chang Sun Chi silently fed her water and said in a low voice,
"Go to sleep, I'll take you back."
Xia Fuyi still refused to close her eyes.
She stared at Changsun Chi intently, trying to stay calm. She tightened her fingers around his collar slightly, looking a little aggrieved, yet extremely stubborn.
Chang Sun Chi closed his eyes, but veins on his forehead popped up.
Lian Tang Qingze, who was standing next to him, took a few steps back in a cold sweat, and for a moment he was so frightened by the furious emperor that he dared not even breathe.
But within a moment, the furious emperor, with his teeth still clenched, lowered his head, gently touched Xia Fuyi's forehead with his lips, and said softly,
"You've been a great help to me. You've done a great job."
Xia Fuyi was finally satisfied, as if she had breathed a sigh of relief. She let herself sink into the darkness, and her fingers that were grabbing the man's clothes loosened.
Almost the moment she closed her eyes, Changsun Chi's expression changed.
He tore the cloak off his shoulders with one hand and wrapped it around Xia Fuyi.
Then the man stood up and held the person in his arms.
He stepped onto the pile of stones and looked quietly at the Shura-like scene in front of him.
Nearly 30,000 corpses were scattered across the huge canyon, and the blood and rainwater mixed together, almost forming a scarlet sea.
The soldiers who came with him were so shocked and terrified by the scene that their voices almost broke.
"This... Did Miss Xia do all this by herself?"
Lian Tang and Qing Ze looked at each other and agreed.
The man was completely speechless and couldn't help but turn his head to look at the person nestled in the emperor's arms.
She was wrapped in a thick black cloak, leaning against the man's arms, revealing only half of her pale, transparent cheek. Her eyelashes were long and wet with rain, her breathing was slow and tired, her brows were slightly wrinkled, and she looked almost fragile.
Then he took another look at the hell of corpses and blood in the canyon and felt that it was like an absurd and terrifying dream.
Changsun Chi did not stay for too long. After leaving this group of soldiers here, he turned and left the canyon. He carried Xia Fuyi onto his horse and galloped towards the camp in the night.
