The moment his feet landed on the ground again, He Xun immediately untied Chen Wei'er who was tied behind him.
Placing Chen Wei'er flat on the ground, He Xun trembled as he tested his wife's breathing.
He Xun heaved a sigh of relief upon confirming her steady breathing. He didn't find any traces of injury on her body either.
But He Xun's adrenaline had run its course. He was breathing hard. Given his dehydrated state and the physically-impossible feat he just accomplished, He Xun's throat became alarmingly dry.
He supported his body and tried to carry Chen Wei'er.
The cave they had stayed in was not far away. If he persisted, He Xun should be able to bring Chen Wei'er there soon.
He Xun considered the cave as the best dwelling place.
After straining his muscles, He Xun's originally dull senses were instantly restored. All the pain returned.
