Chapter 540 Grand Finale (4)_1
Focused solely on revenge, Qiao Huang didn’t notice a strange fluctuation in the air behind him.
Dugu Qianye led Hao Pengyou and the others to a mountain not far away. There happened to be a cave halfway up the mountain, and they quickly got off Xiaohuo and sought shelter inside.
After entering, Hao Pengyou spat out a mouthful of blood, startling Nangong Feifei into a shiver. She hurriedly helped him sit down and asked anxiously, "Pengyou, how are you doing?"
Dugu Qianye walked in, glanced at the blood on the ground, fed him a pill of elixir, and said, "Don’t worry, you won’t die!"
Seeing Dugu Qianye, Nangong Feifei rose to pay respects and said, "Thank you for your rescue today. Otherwise, Pengyou, I, and those guards would have..."
Dugu Qianye helped Nangong Feifei up and said, "What’s there to thank for? Although some people acted without considering the consequences, as your junior martial sister, could I not save you from death?"
"Junior martial sister..." Hao Pengyou looked at Dugu Qianye and called out softly. He knew Dugu Qianye was angry. Today’s situation was indeed dangerous. If it weren’t for their rescue, everyone would have perished on the execution stage! But he didn’t feel any regret. To watch Nangong Feifei suffer such humiliation, he would rather die with her today!
Seeing the look on Hao Pengyou, Dugu Qianye understood his thoughts. She sighed and said, "What about you! If you had really lost your life here, what would the master do? How heartbroken would he be? I’m not saying it’s wrong to save people, but doing so without any plan, not only did you fail to save anyone, you also implicated others and lost lives! Could you bear to watch Feifei die with you? These Hidden Guards are neither your relatives nor friends, but because of you, they lost their lives. Don’t you feel guilty?"
