Chapter 217 - Lan You Nian is Injured (2/2)

At that moment, Hua Xiu Yi was very worried but when he noticed Lan You Nian shot him a look, that look clearly warned him not to disclose it. In addition with the unending rain of arrows, Hua Xiu Yi saved his energy to block those arrows. As for Lan You Nian, she tugged on her sleeves to hide the fine cut.

Hua Xiu Yi looked at Lan You Nian who appeared fine but wasn’t reassured by this; however, he understood Lan You Nian’s misgivings. From the moment they entered the secret room, they couldn’t turn back because there was no turning back from this mechanism. They can only find the exit, only then will they be completely safe. If at this time Feng Yi Xuan knew of Lan You Nian’s injury and being poisoned, Feng Yi Xuan won’t allow Lan You Nian to do anything and will only protect Lan You Nian. To this extend, it would be a cumbrance. Thus, he can only conceal the matter and find the exit as quickly as possible.

Hua Xiu Yi’s heart ached for that this strong woman who was able to remain calm in a moment like this. At the same time, he envied Feng Yi Xuan for being able to obtain her love. There was still faint worry in his heart he couldn’t ignore, but he couldn’t do anything. The most important thing to do was to find the exit.

At this moment, Lan You Nian and Hua Xiu Yi didn’t see Feng Yi Xuan’s countenance as he was walking in the very front. The deep pupils were like a bottomless abyss, exuding an air of death.

Feng Yi Xuan was always constantly paying attention to Lan You Nian, so how could he not notice when Nian Nian’s wrist was injured. Feng Yi Xuan knew at the very start when the hidden weapon shot out. At that time, he wasn’t able to dodge, because once he evaded it, the countless arrows would be aimed at Nian Nian. Nian Nian wasn’t capable of evading all of them. He already prepared to be injured, but he didn’t expect Nian Nian to cut off the hidden weapon. There were actually two hidden weapons; hence why it cut Nian Nian.

When Feng Yi Xuan asked Lan You Nian if she was hurt, he was prepared to hold Nian Nian in his arms, but when he saw Nian Nian didn’t explain, seeing Nian Nian’s concealment, how could he not know Nian Nian’s intentions? He knew doing so was for the best, so he did as she wished and pretended he didn’t know.

The steps seemed to be very long. The three of them walked for a long time before they reached the end. Then, they noticed there was a palace-like chamber at the end of the steps. In the very center of the chamber, there was a box. Feng Yi Xuan and Lan You Nian were instantly certain this box most likely contained Heaven’s Tear Heart.

But none of the three moved, for Jing Wu An warned them this secret room leads to some kind of forest or some other place. There wasn’t an exit in this room, which meant there was a big problem with this chamber.

Lan You Nian took off the hairpin on her head and threw it at the middle of the chamber. Sure enough, from all four sides, countless arrows and hidden weapons sprung out. If they really acted recklessly and went to take the object, though they might not lose their life, they would certainly be gravely injured.

After the arrows and hidden weapons have stopped, Lan You Nian took out the white silk she carried with her. “You guys control the silk while I’ll go grab it.” Their position was quite a distance from the the center. Hence, Lan You Nian was going to get it herself. By letting Feng Yi Xuan control the silk, if something went wrong, Feng Yi Xuan could yank her back at the first instant. If he could’t drag her back, at the very least, Feng Yi Xuan wouldn’t be injured. Before when she hasn’t fallen in love, Lan You Nian never considered she could be so selfless, but she truly didn’t wish for Feng Yi Xuan to be hurt.

Just as Lan You Nian’s voice ended, she received two people’s refusal. Feng Yi Xuan could never allow Lan You Nian to take the risk. Hence, he said to Lan You Nian, “My martial arts is comparatively better. I’ll go get it. You can be reassured!”

But how can Lan You Nian be reassured? However, it wasn’t a solution if the two of them continued on this stalemate. Thus, Lan You Nian grit her teeth saying, “Together!” No matter they encounter today, she must accompany Feng Yi Xuan.

Feng Yi Xuan nodded, agreeing. At the same time, he shot a look at Hua Xiu Yi, the expression was obscure and difficult to understand, but Hua Xiu Yi understood. Hua Xiu Yi dropped his indecorous smile, nodding his head solemnly.

Feng Yi Xuan held Lan You Nian’s hand, using qinggong to fly towards the center of the room. Then, the two of them stopped before a box. Lan You Nian opened the box and saw a purple medicinal herb sleeping inside. The purple herb was the very Heaven’s Tear Heart they’ve been searching for all along.

The two shared a look, prepared to look. But at this moment, the entire room the floor opened up. Feng Yi Xuan and Lan You Nian fell before they could react.

In an instant, Feng Yi Xuan pulled Lan You Nian into his arms; however, when he noticed there was water below and spikes in the water, Feng Yi Xuan used martial force to thrust Lan You Nian up. Under Lan You Nian’s worried and disbelieving eyes, he threw Lan You Nian out of the trap they tumbled into.

Lan You Nian did’t expect Feng Yi Xuan to throw her out for her own safety. The moment he threw her up, it meant he’ll fall down even faster. Lan You Nian was so fearful. She feared the trap below will harm Feng Yi Xuan.

“Trust me!” Feng Yi Xuan’s voice was carried by internal force. Lan You Nian bit down on her lips watching Feng Yi Xuan fall. She was thrown into the open space adjacent to theirs. It was clear it wasn’t as dangerous in this space.

Lan You Nian trusted Feng Yi Xuan, knowing he’ll be fine. Then, she must focus on not letting herself be injured.

Just as Lan You Nian steadied her emotions watching as she fell, she noticed her waist being held. Lan You Nian joyously looked over but seeing Hua Xiu Yi, she was obviously disappointed. But this wasn’t the time to talk.
