Mu Xiaojiu, seeing Mu Lingchuan come towards them and push Baili Xia away, had also called out to Mu Lingchuan.
He knew that he would rescue her, so he focused on fighting the assassin.
But when he returned to the deck, he saw the look of resentment in her eyes as she looked at him.
He knew that she must have misunderstood, thinking that he pushed her away because he didn't want her anymore.
This little creature, she's indeed petty!
He didn't know how long she would hold this grudge against him.
Mu Xiaojiu was never the type of person to be good at explanations.
Plus, the slash across his chest, almost reaching his bone, left him with a pretty severe wound.
He didn't even have time to explain anything further to Baili Xia.
Besides, she was already scared pale; if she found out he was injured, wouldn't that just scare her even more?
So he chose to remain silent; along with Ye Hua, he swiftly departed.
Even his walk was steady and normal, not showing any signs of injury.
