Chapter 73: Return to Capital City

"Hmm?"

"I... Where am I... Did we... die?"

In the desolate field, Linglong groggily opened her eyes, mumbling as the glaring sunlight caused a slight sting in her eyes, until she saw Tie Li, who lay unconscious beside her. Only then did she fully awaken.

"I'm not dead?" Linglong said in astonished whisper.

"Your life is mine. Without my permission, how could you possibly die?" Ye Xuan said, hands behind his back.

"Mr. Ye... was it... was it you who saved me?"

Upon seeing Ye Xuan, Linglong felt an urge to cry, a great deal of moisture welling up in her eyes, finally confirming that she indeed had not died and was still alive.

"Wipe your tears and wake this fool up. We're heading to Capital City immediately," Ye Xuan said, eyebrows slightly furrowed, his voice carrying a hint of reprimand.

"Brother Tie, wake up," Linglong hurriedly wiped away the moisture in her eyes and shook Tie Li's body.

At this moment!
