Chapter 1412: Chapter 809: Survival: If You Die, I Can’t Live Either (2)
He didn’t even know how much longer he could last in such a harsh environment.
Whether he could hold on until rescue came.
He slowly opened his eyes.
The moment he opened them, he locked gaze with Xie Qianyun’s clean, clear eyes.
Even though her whole face was dirtied to the extreme by the yellow sand, those eyes showed him vast stars, as if they were glowing brightly.
At that moment he even thought they were the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen.
Xie Qianyun also noticed that Xiao Luming had awakened.
Her wrist quickly moved away from Xiao Luming’s lips.
He looked like he was about to die, his body weak and powerless when touched, yet when his lips came into contact with her blood, the force of the suction nearly made her faint directly from it.
Luckily, he woke up.
Xie Qianyun hurriedly covered her wound and pressed her acupoint to stop the bleeding.
Xiao Luming only then realized that he had just been drinking Xie Qianyun’s blood.
At this moment, his lips and teeth were filled with the taste of blood.
A sudden pain in his heart...
"Xie Qianyun..." he called her.
His voice was hoarse and weak to the extreme.
"Speak less and conserve energy. We need to find a water source now," Xie Qianyun said.
She simply bandaged her wrist, then stood up.
The moment she stood, her body noticeably swayed.
But soon she steadied herself again.
She looked down at Xiao Luming, "Can the Emperor stand up?"
Xiao Luming slowly got up.
His body clearly trembled.
Just as he got up, he sat back down again.
Xie Qianyun bent over to help him up.
Xiao Luming glanced at Xie Qianyun; she herself could barely stand steadily and yet still helped him up.
She supported him, letting most of his body lean on her shoulder, and the two of them walked arduously through the desert.
Xiao Luming’s Adam’s apple continuously moved.
At this moment, he felt Xie Qianyun’s body so delicate under him, he had a sense of wanting to crush her, yet her small body exploded with astonishing strength, supporting his body step by step.
Xie Qianyun, while supporting Xiao Luming, observed the small animals in the desert.
The local indigenous people had told them how to find water more effectively.
After walking for a long time, Xie Qianyun suddenly spotted a fly.
The indigenous people said that if flies and bees are found, there must be a water source nearby.
Xie Qianyun became somewhat excited, she said to Xiao Luming, "Your Majesty, the water source shouldn’t be far."
Xiao Luming pursed his lips.
His lips were so dry at the moment, his throat was all stinging, he couldn’t say a word.
"Keep holding on," Xie Qianyun encouraged.
She too was reaching her limit at this moment, but seeing hope reignited her fighting spirit.
She supported Xiao Luming and took steps forward again.
Yet at that moment, Xiao Luming fell straight to the ground.
A life of privilege made it really difficult for Xiao Luming to endure in such an adverse environment like Xie Qianyun...
Along the way, his vision had gone dark countless times, yet he tried his best to stay conscious, working hard to match Xie Qianyun’s pace as they searched for water.
But now, he had truly reached his limit.
As he fell, he looked up at the sky, finding it all black.
Pitch black.
"Your Majesty!" Xie Qianyun called him anxiously.
Seeing his slightly closed eyes, barely alive.
She quickly and anxiously said, "Hold on a little longer, we can find water soon, everything will get better after drinking."
"Don’t mind me..." As he closed his eyes, Xiao Luming used all his strength to utter a few words.
He was done.
But he wanted Xie Qianyun to live.
Yet at that moment, his body suddenly felt dizzy.
As he forced himself to open his eyes, he saw Xie Qianyun had already carried him on her back, "Your Majesty, don’t sleep, we will find a water source very soon, please don’t sleep!"
"Qianyun..."
"Trust me, we will survive, my mother will definitely come to get us soon." Xie Qianyun said, panicked.
He could clearly feel Xiao Luming’s increasingly weakened body.
"Leave me, live on..."
"I won’t leave you, my mother said I cannot die before you, if you die, I will too," Xie Qianyun’s eyes were red, but she told herself to stay calm.
To conserve energy.
The water source would soon be reached.
Very soon, they could be saved.
