Xuan Feng felt that his idea just now was incredibly stupid.
Clearly, You Ran's heart was entirely with those three. If she were to be told this directly, given her personality, she would likely distance herself from him.
After all, she was not as good-looking as Huang Yu, nor as noble as Ying Yao, nor as young as Luo Bai.
Compared to them, I have no advantages other than being poor, ugly, and old.
As the black dot in the sky drew closer, Mu Youran soon realized that it was not Ying Yao.
Somewhat disappointed, she withdrew her gaze, only to suddenly remember that Xuan Feng seemed to have said something to her earlier.
What were you trying to say?
Xuan Feng looked at her intently and shook his head: "It's nothing, let's go."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a jet of water shot toward his chest. In an instant, he knew it was an attack from the Black Serpent Beastman.
He didn't even try to dodge, and went straight for it, causing his right shoulder to bleed profusely instantly.
Startled by the sudden turn of events, Mu Youran stood trembling on the spot, the bright red blood flowing incessantly like a river bursting its banks.
Xuan Feng saw her standing there blankly, her face deathly pale, and realized that she was frightened.
He pulled her close and shielded her behind him.
"You Ran, seize the opportunity and run!"
Hearing Xuan Feng's voice, Mu Youran finally came to her senses and fearfully clung tightly to his animal skin skirt.
In this desolate wilderness, where could a lone female go? She'd probably face certain death no matter where she went.
Moreover, Xuan Feng was so badly injured, she couldn't abandon him!
The chances of survival are higher for two people together than for one person alone.
"No, if we're going to leave, we'll leave together!"
Xuan Feng couldn't suppress a hint of joy on his lips. He knew that You Ran wouldn't run away alone, and he had only said that casually.
The black snake orc stretched out its long forked tongue and licked its lips.
"Oh my, you two are really in love, huh? Then let's die together!"
After he finished speaking, countless streams of water rained down from the sky. Xuan Feng was not idle either. He grabbed You Ran, released a bolt of lightning, and then ran away.
Mu Youran lay on Xuan Feng's body, the bushes brushing past her. She was too scared to open her eyes, afraid that the dense branches would poke her eyes.
Only when Xuan Feng slowed down did she open her eyes and look behind her. Fortunately, the snake beast did not chase after her.
However, the next moment, a long trail of blood appeared in the snow, and her heart ached at the sight of it.
He hurriedly called for Xuan Feng to stop.
"Xuanfeng, stop right now! Your arm is still bleeding!"
However, Xuanfeng did not stop, and continued to carry her through the forest until he was exhausted and collapsed to the ground.
Gasping for breath, Mu Youran was thrown off his back.
Fortunately, the snow on the ground was thick, so I didn't get hurt.
She quickly got up, squatted down next to Xuan Feng, and looked at his still bleeding arm.
She looked at her long skirt again and said, "Xuanfeng, quickly cut some of my skirt off so I can bandage your wound."
Xuan Feng slowly opened his eyes, looked at the anxious You Ran, and felt a little guilty. He knew his own situation very well.
This injury only looks serious.
"I'm fine!"
"You said you were fine? You've been bleeding so much the whole way, do you not want this arm anymore? Hurry up!"
Xuan Feng was speechless for a moment. What he said was true, but he really liked how worried You Ran was about him.
But he couldn't bear to touch You Ran's skirt, so he transformed into human form, stood up, and covered his wound.
"I'm really fine, I just need to rest in the cave for the night."
Only then did You Ran realize that there was a cave nearby, so she quickly helped him inside.
The cave was very clean, and there was even a large pile of dry grass inside.
Looking inside, she felt a little uneasy: "Xuanfeng, are there other beastmen living here?"
If they occupy someone else's territory, they'll likely be in danger when that person returns.
Xuan Feng nodded: "This is my cave."
Hearing this, Mu Youran felt much more at ease.
She had run away from the Sunset Tribe alone and happened to run into him not far away.
This place must be not far from the Sunset Tribe!
"Then you should lie down and rest."
She wanted to say she was going to gather some firewood, but with her strength, she wouldn't be able to gather it all, and she'd probably run into that snake-beastman again.
All I could say was, "Are you thirsty?"
Xuan Feng shook his head, looking at her with gentle eyes. If she weren't so worried, things would be even better.
Mu Youran was somewhat discouraged; it seemed that all she could do now was squat on the grass with Xuan Feng and stare blankly.
I was very worried when I saw his arm bleeding with the slightest movement.
He walked to the cave entrance, picked up a sharp stone, and began to smash his animal skin skirt. It took a lot of effort to tear off a large strip of it.
She walked happily to Xuan Feng and said, "Bear with it for a bit, I'll bandage it for you. It's not good for the blood to keep flowing like this!"
Xuan Feng knew she was crouching at the cave entrance, but he didn't expect her to be tearing at her animal skin skirt!
Looking at the long strip of animal hide in her hand, I felt a pang of guilt and sadness.
"You tore your animal skin skirt?"
Mu Youran stood up, smiled, and twirled in front of him: "Look, my skirt is still quite long, I won't be cold."
As he spoke, he squatted down and slowly lifted his injured arm, afraid of hurting him. Every time he wrapped his arm around the wound, he would ask if it hurt and blow on it to warm it.
