Chapter 421 Xie Linchuan is seriously injured
The night deepened, and the entire battlefield was shrouded in silence. The smoke of battle had cleared, but the air still lingered with the scent of war. Burned ruins and shattered equipment silently told of the brutal battle that had just taken place. The joy of victory had not yet completely faded, but a heavy premonition rose in Ye Wan's heart.
She gripped her command knife tightly, her gaze sweeping across the battlefield, ready to clean up the final mess. However, on this battlefield filled with blood and death, a familiar figure stopped her in her tracks.
"Linchuan?" she whispered, feeling uneasy.
Xie Linchuan remained in his original position, leaning slightly forward, his expression composed and calm, but at that moment, his steps seemed unusually labored. Ye Wan noticed that his face was pale, his breathing was rapid, and even his armor was stained bright red. The familiar figure was limping towards her.
Her heart sank suddenly.
"Linchuan, what's wrong with you?" Ye Wan hurried forward, put her hand on Xie Linchuan's shoulder, and looked at him with complicated eyes.
Xie Linchuan endured the pain, smiled slightly, and there was a bit of cunning in his eyes: "It's nothing, just a serious injury." When he spoke, his voice was a little low, but still full of his usual firmness and calmness.
"You still dare to say you're okay?" Ye Wan instinctively pushed his shoulder away and carefully examined his injuries. Her heart suddenly rose to her throat. Xie Linchuan's chest and abdomen were covered in blood. The muscles around the wounds were swollen, and the blood continued to seep out, staining his clothes almost unrecognizable.
At that moment, Ye Wan's rationality almost completely disappeared. Her hands groped back and forth on Xie Linchuan's body, and her eyes quickly scanned his body, searching for the injured part. At that moment, Ye Wan's heart suddenly tightened. She realized that this was not just an ordinary wound, but could be fatal.
"Ye Wan..." Xie Linchuan's voice was a little weak. He barely raised his head to look at her. "I'm fine. I'll help the team clean up the mess first. Give me some time. I can hold on until we get to the camp."
Ye Wan's expression grew increasingly grim. She had never seen him so weak before. The usually calm and resolute Xie Linchuan seemed to have vanished today, replaced by a scarred warrior with eyes filled with extreme exhaustion and pain.
"Stop talking!" Ye Wan shouted anxiously, her voice trembling. "Don't do anything stupid! You can't give orders anymore!" She quickly grabbed his shoulders and forced him to turn around. "We have to take you back immediately for treatment!"
Xie Linchuan instinctively wanted to push her away, but every inch of muscle in his body was protesting against that action. He could only sigh helplessly and shook his head gently: "Don't be so anxious, I can still walk, I can hold on."
Ye Wan ignored his words and turned to shout to the team members behind her, "Everyone! Escort Xie Linchuan back to the camp immediately! Quick!"
Her words were like an order, prompting the team members to react quickly. Several team members immediately rushed forward, quickly and carefully surrounding Xie Linchuan. They moved as gently as possible, but they couldn't hide their eagerness and anxiety. Everyone's expression was heavy and solemn, because they knew that Xie Linchuan's injury might not be as serious as he said.
The seriously injured Xie Linchuan
Ye Wan walked side by side with Xie Linchuan at the front of the group, her heartbeat unsteady and uneasy. She could almost feel every tremor coming from Xie Linchuan, and every breath was heavy and painful. As they walked, she kept watching him, afraid he would collapse along the way.
"Linchuan, if there is anything wrong with you, please tell me." Ye Wan's words were filled with extremely soft concern and anxiety. She knew very well that at this moment, no matter how strong Xie Linchuan was, he might not be able to hold on due to pain and blood loss.
Xie Linchuan tilted his head slightly and looked at her, his eyes filled with silent comfort. "I know, don't worry, I won't die." He said softly. Although his tone was calm, the firmness in it made Ye Wan feel a little relieved.
But the worry still lingered in her heart. Ye Wan knew that this kind of injury wouldn't be easy to recover from. Xie Linchuan's tenacity, while admirable, was also sometimes heartbreaking. She could feel the pain he endured and see the sacrifices he made for everyone's safety. Every time she saw him charging forward recklessly for the team and for her, she felt a sense of helplessness and heartache.
"Linchuan..." Ye Wan's voice lowered, trembling with emotion. "Could you please stop working so hard? We don't ask you to take all the responsibility. We can all handle it."
Xie Linchuan didn't say anything. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although weak, he was still tenacious: "Don't worry, I won't fall down so easily."
Their pace slowed down. Xie Linchuan's injuries seemed to worsen as time went on. His face gradually turned pale, and sweat oozed from his forehead. The team members' expressions also became more and more serious. They quickened their pace and tried their best to get him back to the medical tent in the camp.
Back to camp
Finally, the team members brought Xie Linchuan back to the camp. Inside the medical tent, the noise and bustle suddenly became more urgent. Ye Wan stopped talking and quickly directed the medical team to lift Xie Linchuan onto the bed and begin emergency treatment.
Xie Linchuan remained calm, even though his injuries had left him unable to hold on. His eyes never left Ye Wan. "Ye Wan, don't worry, I'll be fine. It's just... I might need to rest for a while."
Ye Wan's eyes had begun to turn red. She held his hand, her voice choking: "You really almost died this time. I never want to see you get hurt again!"
"Don't worry, I won't die easily." Xie Linchuan had a smile on his face. Although the fatigue in his eyes became more and more obvious, he still tried to comfort her.
However, Ye Wan knew that every word Xie Linchuan said was filled with endless strength and determination, but the pain in her heart was unbearable. In this battle, she never wanted to lose anyone important to her, especially Xie Linchuan.
The entire camp was silent. Ye Wan sat beside Xie Linchuan's bed, holding his hand tightly. Looking into his still bright eyes, a firm determination gradually rose in her heart. She knew that her battle was far from over, and the real victory of this battle depended on the persistence and dedication of each of them.
