At this moment, Ruo Xi held Huo Feng in her arms, covered in blood, his entire body resembling a bloody figure, making it impossible to distinguish whether the blood was his or from the enemy. However, there was no doubt that the enemy had turned into a mist of blood, leaving not even a trace behind.
Ruo Xi sat on the ground holding Huo Feng, taking out a cloak from the Narcissistic Ring to cover him, leaving only his head exposed. At this moment, she was the only one who knew that Huo Feng was still alive, albeit unconscious.
Ruo Xi slowly wiped the blood off Huo Feng's face. At this time, everyone else had rushed over.
Xuanran and Nangong Yu quickly approached, anxiously asking, "How is Huo Feng?"
Nangong Wuqing also looked at Ruo Xi with anticipation, while the Emperor and others quietly waited nearby.
Ruo Xi seemed oblivious to their worried and expectant gazes as she continued to wipe the blood from Huo Feng's face.
When Huo Feng's clean and resolute face became clear again, Ruo Xi finally raised her head and said with a grim expression, "He is still alive, but his breath is very weak."
"That's good to hear; otherwise, I would feel guilty for a lifetime," Nangong Wuqing said as his tense expression finally relaxed.
"Impossible! How could it be him? I clearly pierced his heart; how could he still be alive?" Xiang, who was being restrained by palace guards, murmured in disbelief.
"Hmph! You scheming people are still alive; how could someone as good as him possibly die?" Nangong Yu said angrily.
At this moment, the Emperor spoke up: "Haisheng, take a few Imperial Guards and bring that Xiang back to the palace dungeon. We will return shortly."
"Yes."
A boy around sixteen or seventeen years old responded and glanced at Ruo Xi before calling a few Imperial Guards to escort Xiang away.
The Emperor approached Huo Feng and examined his condition. Frowning, he said, "He is in serious condition; excessive use of Origin Force has overloaded his meridians, showing signs of rupture. This is likely due to the explosion in that space; his eyes are also damaged."
Although Huo Feng's transformation increased his resistance, his eyes were vulnerable. Moreover, at the moment of the explosion, he had to control the Star Domain to minimize damage so that he could survive.
Originally, Huo Feng could have used "Star Domain Annihilation" to control the person inside, but Huo Feng was unable to grasp his form and had to use himself as bait.
Hearing this, Ruo Xi anxiously looked at the Emperor and said, "Please save him."
The Emperor smiled slightly, took out a green pill from the Narcissistic Ring, and stuffed it into Huo Feng's mouth. "How could I let such an outstanding talent from Azure Wave Kingdom die? However, her eyes are a bit troublesome."
Ruo Xi looked at the Emperor gratefully and said, "Thank you."
The Emperor smiled again, turned around, and continued, "You need to hurry and take him with me to the palace; he still needs proper care."
He then looked at the others and instructed, "Liu Hall Master, you are responsible for disbanding the people from Martial Hall. Nangong Mansion Master, come with me to the palace as well."
"Understood."
Nangong Wuqing felt somewhat anxious, unsure if this was a good or bad thing. But seeing the Emperor leave with the Imperial Guard, she had no time to think further and followed along with Ruo Xi, who was holding Huo Feng.
The others also dispersed to handle their own matters.
Ruo Xi and Nangong Wuqing followed the Emperor into the palace's interior, which was even more magnificent. However, both were preoccupied with their own thoughts and did not take in the grandeur of the palace.
They followed the Emperor into a grand hall adorned in gold and jade, where he finally stopped. Turning to the Imperial Guard, he said, "You all go outside and keep watch. No one is allowed in until I come out."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Wuqing's heart raced. "Why is it so serious? What is going to happen?"
Once the Imperial Guard left, the Emperor smiled and said, "Nangong Mansion Master, you have achieved two great merits this time."
Hearing this, Nangong Wuqing's anxious heart finally settled down. She replied, "This is only right; if the country is in turmoil, we will suffer as well."
The Emperor nodded in satisfaction. "Now that Martial Hall has been eliminated from the four halls, this position still needs someone to take charge. So I am giving this reward to you; from now on it will be three halls and one mansion."
Nangong Wuqing could hardly believe her ears, but the reality was right before her eyes.
He quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will definitely guard my position well."
The Emperor smiled and nodded, saying, "Hmm! You may go now; I still need to treat this young man."
"Yes, I take my leave," Nangong Wuqing said as he exited the hall.
Ruo Xi looked at the Emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, is there anything I can help with?"
The Emperor chuckled and replied, "That won't be necessary. We will need a whole day for this. I originally planned to have you rest, but then I thought you wouldn't want that, so I brought you along instead."
Ruo Xi smiled gently and said, "I'll just wait here."
The Emperor didn't hesitate; he used Origin Force to prop Huo Feng up into a sitting position and then sat across from him. The Emperor's palms glowed with fiery red Origin Force as he pressed them against Huo Feng's chest. Instantly, the blood on Huo Feng's body began to scab over and eventually shattered, falling to the ground.
The Emperor withdrew his hands and took a green pill from the Narcissistic Ring, placing it in Huo Feng's mouth. At the same time, he held Huo Feng's hands tightly, allowing Origin Force to seep into Huo Feng's meridians.
The fiery red Origin Force circulated back and forth within Huo Feng's meridians, repairing them.
Ruo Xi quietly sat nearby and watched.
Unknowingly, it was already the second night. The Emperor withdrew his hands and let out a long sigh, saying, "I'm really tired; sitting for so long has made my whole body stiff."
He turned to Ruo Xi and said, "He is fine now; he will wake up after some sleep. However, I don't have any medicine for his eyes. I noticed that besides the shock injury, there is also a layer of blood membrane over his eyes. So I believe he should recover slowly."
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty," Ruo Xi said with a smile.
"Don't be so polite with me; didn't you help me extinguish the conspiracy of the Martial Hall? Besides, I would like both of you to stay in the palace and continue assisting me," the Emperor said.
Ruo Xi didn't mind this but looked at Huo Feng and smiled as she said, "As long as he is willing to stay, I will stay."
"Well! Let's wait until he wakes up." The Emperor then shouted outside, "Imperial Guard."
At this moment, two Imperial Guards entered, kneeling on one knee and saying, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"You two take them to Jinglan Garden to rest and await their instructions," the Emperor said.
"Yes."
After receiving their orders, the two approached Ruo Xi. One of them picked up Huo Feng and said, "Miss, please."
As they stepped out of the magnificent hall, they saw two Imperial Guards bowing their heads and calling out, "Lord Haisheng."
The one called Haisheng ignored them and walked up to Ruo Xi, smiling as he said, "Hello, my name is Haisheng. I am also the Second Prince in this palace. May I have the honor of inviting you to dinner?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not hungry. I still need to take care of my Brother Feng. So we'll be leaving now." Ruo Xi gestured for the Imperial Guards to lead the way towards Jinglan Garden.
Meanwhile, the neglected Haisheng's eyes sparkled with anger as he gritted his teeth and said, "No one has ever dared to treat me, the esteemed Second Prince, like this. Hmph! Brother Feng? You chose to ignore me for someone like him."
