Chapter 171: Heart of a Tiger and Wolf
Warm blood flowed from the body, soon staining her clothes and giving her otherwise clean and beautiful garments a strange, bloodied hue. But Su Qingjun was not concerned with this. What mattered to her more was the discovery of even more and deeper, more brutal wounds on Lu Chen’s body as she tried to lift him.
She was stunned for a while, realizing it would be difficult to make Lu Chen stand on his own. She gently laid him down again and, looking at his mangled and bloody state, whispered, “Wait for me a moment.”
She then stood up, glanced around, and walked over to where several attendants, including the three Su brothers, were gathered in the courtyard. The power of the Moonlight Slash had been so overwhelming that it had terrified everyone present, including Su Mo, who seemed to be in shock. As Su Qingjun approached, everyone, including the three Su brothers, recoiled in fear, their faces pale.
Su Qingjun’s face was cold as she pointed to an attendant who seemed relatively clean and said, “Take off your outer garment.”
The attendant was stunned and exclaimed, “What?”
Su Qingjun did not repeat herself. She simply looked at him coldly, causing the attendant’s legs to go weak. He hastily replied, “Alright, alright!” and quickly removed his outer garment, fearing that if he moved too slowly, his limbs would also part from his body like his clothes.
Su Qingjun took the garment and returned to Lu Chen’s side. She carefully wrapped him in the clothing, covering his bloody wounds and keeping them hidden from the swirling dust.
Lu Chen smiled and said, “There’s no need to go through so much trouble.”
Su Qingjun glanced at him and softly asked, “How are you not in too much pain?”
