The Emperor's Favorite: The Useless and Crazy Concubine Who Conquers the World
Chapter 42: Returning from Injury
Ling Xiu Han's purple clothes had long been soaked with blood, and some parts had even dried up and turned into dark red lumps.
A deep wound extended from his left shoulder to his chest, with blood and flesh turned outward, which was shocking.
With every breath, he could feel the piercing pain from the wound, as if countless knives were cutting his body.
His right arm was also covered with wounds of varying sizes, some of which were scratched by sharp weapons, while others were burned by spells.
The enemy's soul power fluctuations still remained in the wound, constantly eroding his body and making his injuries worse.
Ling Xiuhan dragged his wounded body and walked step by step with difficulty on the land of Canglan Continent.
His clothes were torn and bloodstained, and the wounds on his body were horrifying.
However, his eyes were still cold, like a sharp sword, emitting a chilling aura.
His steps were firm and powerful. Although every step brought him excruciating pain, he clenched his teeth and did not utter a single groan of pain.
In this world, only she can make him let down all his defenses, and only she can give him warmth and comfort.
Along the way, he met many people, who showed expressions of surprise and fear when they saw his appearance.
Some people tried to approach him and ask if he needed help, but were frightened away by his cold eyes. He didn't need anyone's pity or sympathy.
He stood there, his eyes searching for her.
At this moment, Lan Yunyan appeared in his sight.
At that moment, Ling Xiu Han's eyes softened instantly.
His once straight back was slightly bent, and a trace of pain appeared on his face. He pretended to be extremely weak, as if he would collapse at any moment.
The moment Lan Yunyan saw him, her eyes were filled with shock and heartache. She hurried forward and supported his shaky body.
"How did you get injured like this?" Lan Yunyan's voice trembled slightly, tears welling up in her eyes.
Ling Xiuhan said weakly, "I'm... fine, just a little injured."
Lan Yunyan looked at him distressedly, "You call this a minor injury? How could you be so stupid and not know how to take good care of yourself?"
Ling Xiuhan looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness, "Because I want to see you. Only by seeing you can my injuries heal."
Lan Yunyan sighed softly, then carefully helped him sit down and began to examine his wounds. Ling Xiuhan enjoyed her tenderness and care, his heart filled with happiness.
Lan Yunyan looked at Ling Xiuhan's body covered in scars, and her heart felt as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible hand, causing her to feel unbearable pain.
Her eyes were full of concern and anxiety.
Lan Yunyan took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then gently undressed Ling Xiuhan's tattered clothes.
The shocking wounds appeared before her eyes, some deep, some shallow, some still oozing blood, causing her fingers to tremble slightly.
She suppressed the grief in her heart and touched the wounds carefully, as if she was afraid that a little force would bring more pain to Ling Xiu Han.
"How did you get yourself into this?" Lan Yunyan's voice was filled with a hint of blame, but more of heartache. Her eyes were slightly red, tears welling up in them.
Ling Xiuhan smiled weakly and tried to comfort her: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Lan Yunyan ignored his words. She knew that now was not the time to be sad or blame him. The most urgent thing was to heal his injuries.
She quickly took out some herbs and healing instruments that had been prepared long ago.
Her movements were gentle and skillful, first carefully crushing the herbs, then applying them to Ling Xiuhan's wound with extreme care. Every movement was filled with tenderness, as if she were caring for the most precious treasure in the world.
As the herbs were applied, Ling Xiu Han felt a cool sensation spread throughout his body, and the pain was relieved a lot.
But Lan Yunyan knew that this was far from enough, so she continued to use her soul power to inject warm energy into Ling Xiu Han's body.
She closed her eyes and concentrated on feeling the spiritual power flowing through his body, helping him repair his damaged meridians and internal organs.
Fine beads of sweat gradually seeped out of Lan Yunyan's forehead and slid down her cheeks, but she did not stop at all.
Her eyes were always focused on Ling Xiu Han's wound, and she had only one thought in her mind, which was to make him get better as soon as possible.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only the two of them and the warm healing power flowing.
Under Lan Yunyan's careful treatment, Ling Xiuhan's injuries gradually stabilized.
He looked at Lan Yunyan's serious expression, and his heart was filled with emotion and happiness.
He sat there quietly, his eyes softly falling on Lan Yunyan, as if the whole world had frozen at this moment.
Lan Yunyan's face appeared particularly focused and serious under the soft moonlight. Her clear eyes sparkled with wisdom and determination, like the brightest stars in the night sky, fascinating.
A warm current quietly surged in Ling Xiu Han's heart. It was an emotion intertwined with touching and happiness, like the warm sunshine in spring, shining into the softest corner of his heart.
Ling Xiuhan looked at Lan Yunyan, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose. It was a kind of sincere and indescribable joy.
Ling Xiuhan stared at Lan Yunyan, his eyes full of affection.
He seemed to have a thousand words in his heart, but he didn't know where to start.
Finally, he mustered up his courage, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "Xiao Yan'er, have you ever been moved by me? Even just once."
Lan Yunyan was slightly startled and turned to look at Ling Xiuhan.
Ling Xiu Han continued, "Ever since I met you, my world has changed. I know I'm hopelessly in love with you."
Lan Yunyan's cheeks instantly flushed, and a complex mix of emotions surged within her. She had never imagined Ling Xiuhan would confess his feelings for her, and for a moment, she was at a loss for words.
