Xiang Yueming suddenly transformed back into his original form.
One of his tusks had broken, blood gushing out and pooling on the ground.
He turned his head, worry filling his eyes as he shouted, “Ji Yu, run!”
He pointed at the others and said, “You all take her away first!”
Bai Chen immediately hoisted me onto his back and quickly ran toward the territory of the Elephant Clan.
It wasn't until we were sure we had safely escaped from those wild boars that he finally stopped.
I looked up to see Xiang Yueming stumbling toward us.
At that moment, he had become a figure drenched in blood.
Not a single piece of skin on his body was intact; even his face was marred with deep and shallow scars.
Each step he took was a struggle, as if he might collapse at any moment.
Yet, upon seeing me, he still forced out a smile with all his might.
“Ji Yu, are you okay?”
He wiped his bloodied hand across his face, trying to appear more composed.
However, I ultimately turned my gaze away coldly.
I quickly got up and took Bai Chen's hand, leading him away from Xiang Yueming.
I pulled out the first aid kit the system had given me and began to treat Bai Chen's wounds.
"Bai Chen, are you okay?" I asked.
Bai Chen scratched his head a bit awkwardly. "It's just a minor injury; it will heal in a couple of days."
I didn't say much more and continued to apply the medicine.
To be honest, I didn't feel too concerned about his injury. After all, he was tough, and this little scratch wasn't anything significant.
However, at that moment, Xiang Yueming's pained cries caught my attention.
I turned around to see him struggling to bandage his own wound.
His movements were clumsy, and he kept accidentally touching the injury with his fingers.
As a result, beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead, and his actions grew increasingly slow.
I frowned at the sight.
How could he be hurt so badly?
He seemed fine just a moment ago...
Could it be that he had been pretending all along?
Had he already been seriously injured?
Countless thoughts flashed through my mind, but in the end, I turned away coldly.
No matter what happened to him, it was no longer my concern.
The next day, I carefully held Bai Chen and slowly walked out of the deep cave. The world outside was tranquil, with sunlight filtering through the treetops and casting dappled shadows on the ground. However, the moment I stepped out of the cave, I was momentarily stunned by the scene before me, a surge of indescribable emotions welling up inside.
Xiang Yueming stood amidst a vibrant sea of flowers, holding a bouquet of colorful tulips, resembling a prince among the blossoms. His face bore the scars from last night's battle, and his clothes were tattered and disheveled, making him appear somewhat ragged. Yet despite his disheveled appearance, his eyes sparkled with joy, as if he were anticipating something wonderful to happen.
Upon seeing me, he immediately approached with a beaming smile, his steps light as if all his fatigue had vanished into thin air.
"Ji Yu, I picked these for you especially; I hope you like them."
Xiang Yueming extended the bouquet towards me, his eyes filled with expectation as if waiting for my praise and gratitude. However, I merely shot him a cold glance before angrily snatching the flowers from his hands and throwing them to the ground, stomping on them until they were crushed to pieces.
"Xiang Yueming, do you really think a bouquet can atone for your Elephant Clan's crime of slaughtering 700 people from my Rabbit Tribe?"
I shouted at him in anger, my voice filled with indignation and outrage.
"What?"
Xiang Yueming paused for a moment, a look of confusion flashing in his eyes; clearly, he had not anticipated such a fierce reaction from me.
