Chapter 796: Escape

Translator: Lonelytree 

Under the effect of the Phoenix Blood, the black blood from the wound gradually faded and turned red. I dripped a few more drops of blood and watched the wound slowly heal.

“We need to find a way to get out and send her to the main house. We also need to find Jing Tian and the others.” I put away the dagger and gently pressed the wound on my hand. I watched it slowly heal as I spoke to Jing Ni and Mai Qi.

Mai Qi had been looking out through the gaps in the flowers.

Jing Ni was adjusting her computer. We had a tacit understanding. She was looking for the shortest route to the main house.

“Why hasn’t she woken up?” Mai Qi turned around to push Lin Nan.

“I don’t know. Maybe the toxins in her blood haven’t been completely cleared out,” I said nonchalantly.

“You have such low confidence in your Phoenix Blood.” Mai Qi rolled her eyes at me.

I nodded honestly. “You would feel the same if you were me. After all, this is too fantastical.”

Mai Qi snorted. “Please, no. I don’t want to be so unlucky. I’m not going around bleeding myself to save others.”

I was angered by her and laughed. “Darn girl, that hurts.”

Mai Qi pursed her lips.

“10 o’clock. That will get us quickest to the side door of the main house.” Jing Ni accurately estimated the direction.

“Alright, we’ll take turns carrying her.” I bent down and stood up. I lowered my body as much as possible. Then, I dragged Lin Nan over with great difficulty. Mai Qi helped me to carry her on my back. She took the rear while Jing Ni led the way.

Carrying another person while bending over was really a strenuous task. Mai Qi quickly took over. We let Jing Ni lead the way properly.

I thought to myself, Why hasn’t Lin Nan woken up? Is this toxin something even Phoenix Blood can’t cure? It’s so powerful!

“Mai Qi, I have to go back and retrieve that arrow. The poison on it has high research value.” I suddenly slapped my thigh.

Mai Qi rolled her eyes at me. An arrow appeared in front of me. “My sister Xing, am I that useless?”

I beamed. “My aunt is the best!”

Mai Qi couldn’t help but laugh. She turned her head away and ignored me. After a few steps, she couldn’t bear Lin Nan’s weight any longer. I took over Lin Nan from her.

“Get down!” Jing Ni, who was walking in front, suddenly lowered her voice. Mai Qi and I quickly got down.

There were hurried footsteps and swearing voices in front of me. “How could she disappear in such a short time? Fourth Brother’s arrow was quite accurate. I saw her fall. How could she be gone?”

“Hurry up and find her. She’s nearby. I think she’s with several people! We only want the one who was shot. Kill the others!”

My heart sank.

The one who was shot should have been me. If Lin Nan hadn’t sacrificed herself to save me, I would have been the one who was unconscious.

As the footsteps faded away, I heard the gunshots getting further and further away from us.

I couldn’t help but have a bad premonition.

The Lin family was a family of doctors. They were not fighters. The people who attacked us were professional mercenaries.

The gunshots could only come from Jing Tian and the others. Someone was leading them away from us.

“What a great strategist.” I couldn’t help but sigh.

“We can go now.” Jing Ni was focused.

I staggered and almost threw Lin Nan off my back.

The distance to the side door wasn’t that large, but it wasn’t easy to get through the rain of bullets.
