"Commandery Princess—" Xing Yu's body swayed, trying to rush over, but distant water couldn't save the nearby fire.
Zheng Nianru only felt that the youth's appearance was definitely out to kill her. In a moment of desperation, her mind quickly chose the best method to save her life, and at the same time, she reached out to grab the youth.
The youth's body immediately tensed up. As he stared at Zheng Nianru in front of him, he restrained and trembled, his eyes red but flashing a hint of bewilderment and a strange feeling, his clenched teeth almost, almost...
"Who, wants... your saving—" the youth gritted out a few words.
The youth's eyes rolled back as he fell straight backward, with a thud, the hollow crack sounded like he felt no will to live.
Zheng Nianru breathed a sigh of relief, this time she wouldn't save even if he were alive.
Xing Yu was dumbfounded, being awake and yet baffled, completely unsure what to do.
