No one had expected the arena contest to have such a turn of events—Yi Yun's sudden appearance, the maiming of Zhao Tiezhu and the beating up of Lian Cuihua.
In the vast wilderness, medical procedures were extremely backward. 99% of such injuries would lead to infection, and without antibiotics, the moment they became infected, they would have no chance of surviving.
Even if he survived, Zhao Tiezhu had been crippled off his ability to practice martial arts or work; even getting down from the bed would be a problem.
As for Lian Cuihua, she was disfigured. Of course, to Yi Yun, Lian Cuihua's looks before being disfigured was terrible. But without her half her set of teeth, Lian Cuihua would have trouble eating grain or vegetables. In the vast wilderness, unless someone gave her something to eat, she would most likely starve to death without anyone taking care of her.
Be it Zhao Tiezhu or Lian Cuihua, the future that awaited them would be a tragic ending.
