The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Chapter 1413: Chapter 809: Survival: If You Die, I Can’t Live Either_3

"Xiao Luming, if you die, I won’t be able to live either..." Xie Qianyun said with all her might.

She carried Xiao Luming, trudging step by step on the difficult sand.

It seemed like she saw reeds ahead.

Is it really, reeds?!

The sky had darkened, and it just felt like the reed fluffs were drifting in the night.

Xie Qianyun gritted her teeth, struggling to walk.

It seemed just up ahead, amid the challenging sandy terrain and dunes, they had to walk for a long, long time...

Xiao Luming leaned against Xie Qianyun’s neck.

Her body was covered in sweat.

Her neck was really so slender.

He lay entirely on her back, his bones so small and thin.

He truly didn’t know how she managed to carry him and still walk in the desert.

Darkness enveloped his vision.

In his mind, there was only one voice repeating, "If you die, I won’t be able to live either..."

Finally.

They reached the reed field.

They saw, a field of reeds swaying in the wind under the night sky.

Xie Qianyun accidentally tripped.

Her whole body fell directly to the ground.

But to protect Xiao Luming, her hands were tightly holding his, preventing him from falling to the ground.

Without using her hands to break the fall, her face went straight into the dirt.

She got a mouthful of sand.

Xie Qianyun struggled to lift her head.

For a moment, she almost choked on the sand that was inhaled into her mouth.

She coughed a few times and turned over to place Xiao Luming on the ground.

Xiao Luming was already unconscious.

Xie Qianyun quickly pulled out a reed, opened its root, and bit into it.

The reed root was sweet and full of moisture.

That bite was like a spring water, making Xie Qianyun truly feel she could still live.

She could still survive in the desert.

She quickly gave the reed root to Xiao Luming to eat.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, wake up, there’s water..." Xie Qianyun called out to him.

Xiao Luming seemed to move his lips, but his body showed no reaction.

Perhaps he wanted to struggle, but was too exhausted to make any movement.

Xie Qianyun didn’t think too much about it.

She quickly bit another piece of reed root, chewed it to mush in her mouth, and transferred the juice into Xiao Luming’s mouth.

Their mouths were full of sand.

The taste was not pleasant.

Xiao Luming’s mouth still had a residual bloody taste.

But Xie Qianyun, without hesitation, finished five reeds, feeding some to Xiao Luming and swallowing some of the juice herself.

Slowly.

Xie Qianyun’s body began to recover a bit.

Although Xiao Luming was still unconscious, his breathing was noticeably calmer.

It was likely because his body was exhausted, causing him to fall into a deep sleep.

Xie Qianyun’s strength was also at its limit.

She looked around the environment, thought for a moment, and leaned against Xiao Luming’s side, taking a short nap.

Though she didn’t truly fall asleep.

There were bound to be dangers in the desert.

Especially at night.

After resting briefly, she got up to search for a real water source.

The reeds grew so densely here; there might be a spring underground.

She crouched down, using a knife to dig in the sand.

The deeper she dug, the moister it became.

Xie Qianyun was even more motivated.

She continued digging deeper, following the moisture of the sand.

Sometimes the knife wasn’t handy, so she used her hands to dig further.

Continuously, endlessly.

Finally, she saw a stream of spring water gush out from beneath the ground.

Xie Qianyun had never felt so lucky.

At this moment, seeing real water was like witnessing the dawn.

In the night, she felt as if she were smiling foolishly.

She quickly filled her water bottle with the spring water.

Gulping it down, she truly quenched her thirst.

The reed roots had only replenished her body with moisture, nowhere near as satisfying as this.

After drinking, she filled her bottle again and walked to the still unconscious Xiao Luming, lifted his head, took a sip, and mouth-to-mouth fed him the water.

Xiao Luming sensed the fresh water, instinctively gulping it down.

Suddenly, the immense satisfaction caused Xiao Luming to slowly open his eyes.

As he opened his eyes, he saw Xie Qianyun’s face up close, feeling the clear flow and warmth between their lips.

His throat moved slightly.

He swallowed the water in large gulps.

Xie Qianyun released Xiao Luming, intending to drink another sip to feed him, only to find Xiao Luming had opened his eyes.

She promptly asked, "Your Majesty, you’re awake?"

Xiao Luming saw the smile on her face.

The night was clearly very dark.

But her eyes remained bright.
