Chapter 565 - Chapter 565: Chapter 571: Fainted Away (2/2)
“Xiu Qi, you’re so severely injured, why didn’t you say anything sooner, fighting so long with your wound… look at your complexion, you’re completely pale. How do you feel now?” asked Liu Xiu, anxiously.
Having held on with his injury for so long, Han Yu finally couldn’t support himself any longer and fainted without answering Liu Xiu’s question, leaving Liu Xiu to confront the problem alone.
There was a minor officer with some medical skills accompanying Liu Xiu and he was called over to diagnose and treat Han Yu.
“How is it, how serious are Xiu Qi’s injuries?” Liu Xiu asked with a worried and concerned face, a far cry from his previous feigned concern. Irrespective of the fact that Han Yu had saved his life, Liu Xiu truly did not want to lose such a capable and loyal subordinate, hence the urgency in his voice.
“The sword has injured General Han’s heart and lungs quite severely, even endangering his life. Furthermore, fighting with such wounds has aggravated his condition. If we do not provide prompt treatment, I’m afraid General Han’s life is at stake!” The minor officer did possess some ability, accurately outlining Han Yu’s condition with some exaggeration, however, given their dire situation with a lack of supplies, Han Yu indeed could be in mortal danger, as he definitely took that strike for Liu Xiu.

“No matter what, you must save him using whatever means necessary!” Liu Xiu said without hesitation.
“But with General Han in such a state…” The minor officer seemed troubled.
“I don’t care about the state or the condition. In short, you must save Han Yu’s life at all costs. Just focus on treating him. If you need anything, just say it and I will fulfill it. If something happens to Han Yu, I’ll have your head!” Liu Xiu was truly in distress to use threats on the minor officer, a tactic quite out of character for him.
The minor officer, having no other choice but to do everything possible to save Han Yu’s life, simply agreed with a nod, head bowed. No one saw the strange glint that flickered in his eyes unseen.
Su Wenyue was strolling in the Feng Family Manor’s garden with the three little guys. She had wanted to discuss some matters with Xiao Xi, but had been waylaid by the demanding children. With no other option, she focused on the kids, and they all enjoyed their time together as mother and child.
“Mother, Father gave this to you, right? I saw it. He put it on you himself that day. This string of beads is really pretty,” Sister Yu said enviously. Though she was young, she had already developed a liking for beautiful items.
Su Wenyue smiled indulgently and reached out to take off the bracelet she was wearing, but just as she touched it,
