Chapter 206 The Secret Of Prince Jings Birth (1/2)
Prince Jing rushed to Yun Shang and asked with concern, ”What happened? Are you okay?”
Yun Shang nodded but kept silent.
It was dark around them, so Prince Jing couldn't see that Yun Shang had been hurt. He also didn't see her swallowing her blood. When he didn't hear Yun Shang speak for a long time, Prince Jing held Yun Shang's hand and asked again, ”Are you hurt?”
It took Yun Shang a while to muster enough strength to answer softly, ”I'm all right. I'm just tired after the chase and the fight.”
Prince Jing was happy to hear Yun Shang's voice. But he noticed how weak she sounded. He nodded as he thought over her explanation. Prince Jing felt relieved. 'Yun Shang isn't very good at Kung Fu. It's understandable that she would feel tired.'
”We need to hurry. I set fires around the forest during the chase. It won't be long before someone comes to put them out. I have a way to deal with the soldiers.

Just then, Prince Jing's voice gave Yun Shang something else to think about. He said, ”Well, now that we are not afraid of the poison in the miasma, we should go back down the mountain and find our people. I've been able to spot a road that we can use. Tomorrow I'll report the secret army to Emperor Ning and suggest that he replace the garrison guarding the Imperial City with people that I trust......”
Yun Shang answered him with a soft ”Em.” Just then she felt Prince Jing holding her injured hand. Yun Shang burst into a cold sweat as pain radiated throughout her arm and shoulder. She almost passed out because of the intensity of the sudden pain.
”Why is your hand so sweaty?” Prince Jing asked.
Yun Shang ground her teeth and forced a smile, ”It's probably because I've never fought with anyone in practice. As it's my first time, I became
