The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!-Chapter 1252 - 1247: Yan’er to His Rescue
Chapter 1252: Chapter 1247: Yan’er to His Rescue
Su Yingxue ordered the Shadow Guards to scatter in search of clues while Zi Wei stayed by her side, tirelessly searching the canyon.
Finding no one, she leaned against the rock wall, feeling somewhat dejected.
Zi Wei instinctively wanted to reach out and comfort her, but when he saw her gaze turn his way, he quickly lowered his hand and said indifferently, “Let’s search again, there’s still a living person’s aura here.”
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
He could sense it, although he couldn’t see it with the naked eye.
But the feeling of the aura was unmistakable, a testament to his many years as an assassin.
Su Yingxue inexplicably trusted him, and without even asking for a reason, she joined him in searching the canyon once more.
...
While searching meticulously, Su Yingxue accidentally kicked a rock and nearly stumbled.
Zi Wei hurriedly steadied her, and after ensuring she was balanced, he immediately let go and stepped back, “Be careful.”
This restraint and caution only reminded Su Yingxue of Zi Wei more.
He was always such a measured person.
Yet with every glance at him, she reminded herself once again that this person was not Zi Wei.
Su Yingxue smiled lightly, “Thank you.”
Zi Wei nodded, and the two continued their search. Su Yingxue found no clues, but Zi Wei, squatting where Su Yingxue had almost tripped, observed carefully for a long while and then reached out to touch the spot. With one move, he lifted it open.
“Whoosh—”
A person tumbled out, and Zi Wei quickly caught them.
Su Yingxue rushed over and called out, “Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu!”
She grabbed Xiao Yu’s wrist to check his pulse and found his body extremely weak, a consequence of fatigue and hunger, also someone had sealed his sleep acupoint.
Su Yingxue took out a silver needle and pricked his philtrum, attempting to rouse him, “Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu, wake up!”
She saw Xiao Yu’s parched lips, went directly into Medicine King Valley, and then brought back some spiritual spring water, dabbing it onto his lips with a handkerchief to help him regain consciousness.
Xiao Yu was trapped in a haze, but the presence of water stirred his awareness, and as he moved his lips, someone began to feed him water.
Feeling the cool, sweet refreshment, he called out instinctively, “Yan’er… Yan’er…”
His Yan’er hadn’t had any water, she should drink first!
When he struggled awake, he realized that the person feeding him water was not Su Miaoyan but Su Yingxue!
Xiao Yu suddenly sat up, grabbing Su Yingxue’s arm and panting hard, “Yan’er! Go save Yan’er! She… cough, cough, cough!”
He couldn’t finish his sentence before starting to cough violently, bringing up several mouthfuls of bloody phlegm.
Su Yingxue felt a pang in her chest and had Zi Wei gently pat his back, “Don’t get agitated, your body is too weak, catch your breath before you tell us clearly!”
Xiao Yu struggled to regulate his breathing. Fortunately, the spiritual spring water Su Yingxue had fed him restored some strength, allowing him to speak intermittently, “Yan’er is wearing my clothes… she ran out… and the Flying Eagle Guard, they…”
Su Yingxue instructed Zi Wei, “You help me look after him, I’ll go look for Miaomiao!”
“I’m coming with you!”
Zi Wei would not leave her side, he had to stay close to her.
Su Yingxue knew she couldn’t persuade him otherwise, so she left the task to the Shadow Guards, “I’m going with him, his martial arts are strong, you don’t need to worry about us, but you must protect Xiao Yu, he cannot afford the slightest mistake!”
The Shadow Guards knelt down and, in unison, said, “Understood!”
Su Yingxue and Zi Wei ran out. Zi Wei had already searched the area, and since there was only one path through the canyon and mountain base which they had checked thoroughly without finding any traces of people, they had no choice but to take the left path.
The more Su Yingxue ran, the more something felt off, “It’s so cold here, even the scent of blood in the air seems to have frozen.”
