Chapter 1007: Her Goal
“Are you alright?” Feng Qingyou asked.
“What do you think?” Ye Qing answered weakly.
Right now, Ye Qing’s face was covered in dust, and his skin looked dim, wrinkly, and almost lifeless like the bark of a tree in autumn or winter. Not only were his qi, essence and spirit sitting at rock bottom, he was visibly wobbling on his feet. It would not be surprising if he fell unconscious at any moment.
“You look fine to me!” Feng Qingyou shot him a look before giving him a half-hearted answer.
“I almost died, and you say I look fine to you?” Ye Qing rolled his eyes at her. Her response couldn’t get more half-hearted than this.
Seriously though, Ye Qing was pretty sure that his injuries were worse than the time at Lu Tai Yuan. First, he had fought against several thousand elite Nanjiang Pacification troops. Then, he dueled against two Great Truemen, Chi Tian and Profound Spirit Taoist. Finally, he forced himself to use a full-powered Break Hammer and added salt to the injury that was his mind. Near the end, even his Earthly Sovereign body was at its limit.
If Feng Qingyou hadn’t shown up in time, he would have perished one hundred percent.
But of course, he knew he wasn’t going to die. He knew that Feng Qingyou would appear to save him. That was why he dared to give it his all and fight with his life on the line.
If he was alone, or if he believed that Feng Qingyou wouldn’t return to save him, then he would not have fought the way he had. He would have fought using a hit-and-run strategy or activated his life-saving Strange Artifacts or talismans to escape the Nanjiang Royal Court.
