Willingly to form a covenant with you
Away from the lava, wildfires and thick smoke, Qinglan's mind gradually became clear.
He looked at Fu Ying who was so close to him, his gray-brown eyes filled with disbelief. His Adam's apple rolled as he murmured in a low, hoarse voice, "...A Ying? Is that you?"
Fu Ying gently placed Wu on the ground, turned to look at Qinglan, and their eyes met. She curled her red lips slightly, suddenly took a step forward, and put her arms around his waist. Gentle spiritual energy emanated from her palms and moved around his body.
After quickly checking Qinglan's injuries, Fu Ying breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were only superficial injuries and not serious.
It seems that Yu Li kidnapped Qinglan this time just for his own selfish reasons.
Only when Fu Ying hugged him sincerely did Qinglan come back to his senses.
He suddenly tightened his arms, locking Fu Ying tightly in his arms, his thin jaw pressing deeply into her shoulder socket, his ethereal voice still had a lingering hoarseness, as if squeezed out from his chest.
"I thought I would never see you again."
Fu Ying pursed her red lips, tightly clasped Qing Lan's waist, lowered her eyes and suppressed her emotions: "I won't let anything happen to you."
She lowered her eyes, thinking of the scene she had just seen, her heart still beating in her chest.
Fu Ying's fingertips trembled slightly.
Under the palm of his hand, Qinglan's back was surprisingly thin. Since the tribal trade conference, he probably hasn't had a single day of relaxation.
If she were just an ordinary female, she would definitely scold Qinglan harshly, a fool who was so sincere that he didn't know how to adapt.
But she wasn't after all.
Her mission was almost going to fail. If Qinglan had been a little more selfish and left Wu's side, delaying the opportunity, Wu might have died by now. By then, the mission would have been declared a failure, and she would have had to leave the Orc Continent.
Thinking of this, Fu Ying hugged Qinglan a little tighter.
She closed her eyes, not daring to think about what would happen if she arrived a moment later.
Qinglan would rather sacrifice himself to save Wu. This pure kindness that was almost self-destructive made her feel stupid, and her heart was also filled with a slight pain.
These male orcs are always like this, with personal charm tempered to the extreme.
Such temptation is an extremely cruel test for the tasker.
She couldn't guarantee that she could remain calm and composed every day in the future and not be swayed by her emotions, so she could only keep reminding herself.
Complete the task as quickly as possible.
"Next time, protect yourself first." Fu Ying buried his face in Qinglan's flaxen hair, and his voice was lost in the touch of her neck.
Qinglan was strangled by her and it hurt. Listening to the subtle breathing sound beside his ear, there was pure joy in his eyes.
He knew that Aying felt sorry for him.
After a long while, Qinglan stepped back slightly, and gently stroked Fuying's cheek with his bony palm. His clear eyebrows and eyes were extremely gentle, as if he was looking at the most beautiful scenery in his world: "Aying, why are you here?"
Fu Ying explained in a low voice, then asked, "Was it Wu who took you away from Yunwu Cliff?"
When the word "鹜" was mentioned, Qinglan came back to his senses in an instant and turned to look at the young man lying on the ground. He was still unconscious, with his long golden-red hair spread out like a gorgeous painting, which made the blood on his lips even more glaring.
Qinglan's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he whispered, "Aying, Wu, will he be okay?"
Fu Ying turned to look at Wu and shook his head: "I've already fed him the medicine. The elixir will slowly repair his body. However, he has injured his lungs and internal organs, so this will be a long process."
Before he could finish his words, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the sky. The circling golden eagle cried out, swooped down, and transformed into several orcs.
They stood frozen five steps away, staring at Wu lying on the ground, and did not rush forward until Yu Li arrived after hearing the news.
"Brother!" Yu Li's expression suddenly changed when he saw the unconscious Wu.
He strode forward and picked up the person. His slender fingers trembled unconsciously, and his handsome face was pale. Without even looking at Fu Ying, he was ready to take the person back to Chaoxue.
Fu Ying glanced at him but didn't try to stop him. He said calmly, "If you want him to die, just take him away."
Yu Li suddenly stopped, looked up at Fu Ying gloomily, and said in a cold voice: "If it weren't for you, how could my brother be like this? I want to take him back to the tribe. The witch will definitely be able to save him! Definitely!"
"Really? I need to make it clear to you in advance. Wu's star pattern was already broken, and he lost the power of an ordinary male. He was also severely injured by the giant tree, and his lungs were shattered. Apart from me, no one in this world can save him."
Fu Ying had a cold expression and spoke every word very directly.
Yu Li's face was gloomy, with dark emotions surging in his eyes. He could sense that Wu was in a bad condition, but he was still skeptical about Fu Ying's words.
"Go and ask the witch to come." His voice was cold and his arms around Wu were extremely stiff.
The tribesman standing behind him nodded and immediately transformed into a golden eagle, soaring into the sky and flying towards the nest.
Not long after, he came back with an elderly male orc.
The old orc had golden feathers on his head. Although his hair was gray, he had his own aura. It seemed that he was also a very powerful figure in the Golden Eagle Tribe when he was young.
As soon as the old orc landed, he was pulled over by Yu Li.
However, as he examined Wu, his wrinkled face gradually became solemn. His skinny fingers hovered over Wu's heart for a long time, then he whispered a few words to Yu Li and shook his head.
Yu Li's Adam's apple rolled violently, and every word seemed to burst out from between his teeth: "Is there really no other way?"
The old orc looked down at Wu, his eyes filled with sorrow. He shook his head and said, "Wu is a rare mutated golden eagle in our tribe. I watched him hatch... but now he is only breathing his last breath."
Blood seeped from Yu Li's golden pupils, and his knuckles made crackling sounds.
After a long while, he turned to look at Fu Ying, his voice hoarse as if it had been ground by sand and stone: "Since you know his situation, is there any way to save him? Fu Ying, Wu is your male! He was willing to form a bond with you in the beginning!"
His voice was sharp, a strangled gasp escaping his throat.
Fu Ying tilted her head and glanced at him: "Wu is my partner, of course I will save him, but he has to come with me."
Yu Li's body stiffened. He lowered his eyes to glance at the unconscious Wu, his jaw set in a sharp line as he said in a deep voice, "Okay, but I want to go with you! I'm worried about him going alone with you."
Fu Ying sneered upon hearing this, a cold and sarcastic look flashing in his eyes: "What? Are you afraid that I won't keep my word?"
She glanced at Yu Li lightly and sneered, "That's not necessary. Wu and I have a bond, and I want to see him alive more than anyone else. After a while, I will naturally return you a lively and energetic prince."
Yu Li's body temperature plummeted. "Based on what you've done before, do you think I'll believe a single word you say?"
Fu Ying's mouth twitched, and he waved his hand: "Forget it, whatever you want."
Qinglan stood aside, his gray-brown eyes swept over Yu Li like mist, and he held Fuying's hand a little tighter.
