”Tang Tang! Look, This King is indeed still alive! ” Opening his eyes, he got up from the ground and patted off the grass and dust on his body as he spoke with some excitement.
”That's right, the calamity has lasted for a thousand years. How could something happen to you so quickly?” Tang Xiaotang looked at him.
Indeed, his face was extremely similar to the little boy in the scene. Even though his face was somewhat pale, one could still see that he was handsome.
But … There were two deep intersecting wounds on the left side of his face, ruining what should have been a peerless beauty.
”You see, thou shalt not wear a mask.”
Ye Yuming reflexively touched his own face. The two wounds were still there, but the ones in his heart had disappeared.
So it wasn't that difficult to deal with this matter. It wasn't his fault in the first place.
The sunlight on his face felt so warm …
”You have finally … ”Daring to face the real me …” Tang Xiaotang was a little tired, and her voice was also a little low.
At least she didn't waste the effort she put in to follow him into his dream.
”You … ”Are you alright …” Hearing the exhaustion in her voice, Ye Yuming asked softly.
He was not stupid. Jumping down from such a high cliff had a slim chance of surviving. Furthermore, he did not suffer any injuries. Other than what she had done, there was no other possibility.
”I'm fine …” ”How is the poison in your body?” She could only use one type of ability, so she couldn't help him cure the poison.
”I'm afraid it's a bit bad, I can't use my inner force now …” We need to find the way out quickly! ” Ye Yuming could feel that there was not much Inner Qi in his body, but fortunately the poison mist had not reached his heart and lungs, so he was able to persevere for a while.
”Oh …” Tang Xiaotang didn't know how much longer she could last, so she tried to conserve her strength.
”Persevere. This King's people will be here soon.” Before jumping off the cliff, he had left a signal that his men were definitely on their way here.
”Alright.”
Then she stopped talking.
Ye Yuming walked along the bottom of the cliff.
Since he couldn't use any internal energy, he could only use his soft sword to cut off the surrounding shrubs and slowly cut a path. Ye Yuming stepped on the soft and thick moss, stepping over the thick roots of the tree under his feet and advanced with difficulty.
A lot of the plants were covered with thorns, and a few moments later his clothes were riddled with cracks and his hands were covered with small wounds. These plants were obviously poisonous. The wound didn't bleed, but it quickly swelled up. It was painful and numb, but Ye Yuming held it back. He didn't even frown.
During this time, he kept on talking to Tang Xiaotang, as if he was afraid that she would fall asleep. However, the words Tang Xiaotang replied him with the most often was ”Oh” or ”En”, indicating that she was still awake.
Ye Yuming was a person with a firm and determined personality to begin with. Since he was still alive, he definitely would not want to give up. Thus, as he chatted with Tang Xiaotang, he looked for a way to walk further and further away.
A faint sound of water could be heard in front of him. After splitting apart the last plant in front of him, a small stream appeared before his eyes. With a sigh of relief, he went to the stream to prepare his wounds.
Tang Xiaotang wanted to remind him that the stream was not clean. Maybe there was a parasite that could not be used to clean the wound. However, looking at those wounds which were already bluish white yesterday, if I don't treat them now, the muscles there might just die …
