Holding the life-threatening Graniwin in his arms, Xuan Qiu ran towards the imperial doctor's residence without the slightest hesitation.
As they ran, blood splashed on the ground, which was Granywin's blood. With all her scales removed, she looked like a hornet's nest, with blood constantly spurting out from every wound.
Looking at Granowen, whose face was so pale that it was almost transparent, Xuan Qiu felt very scared in her heart. It was as painful as losing her soul.
He blamed himself extremely in his heart. If he hadn't been the instigator, maybe he would have been qualified to stand by her side.
However, at this moment, facing the dying Graniwin, he only felt ashamed.
Yes, he is a sinner, and he has a part in the tragedy of Granywin, although it is not a big one, but he is aware of it after all.
Recalling that thunderstorm day many years ago, he was still a small captain. Because of his ability to know water, he was dispatched by His Majesty to carry out special tasks.
That was the most glorious day in his life, because His Majesty actually asked him to accompany him, which was an incomparable honor for a little captain of the guard.
Although the weather was bad, it still didn't affect Xuan Qiu's good mood.
In fact, he didn't understand why His Majesty would choose to go to sea at such a special time. It was such a dangerous thing for His Majesty who was not familiar with water. But he is a soldier, and his nature is to obey orders, so
He didn't ask any questions, he just stayed at his post and protected His Majesty.
During the thunderstorm, he suddenly heard a beautiful voice. Xuan Qiu thought he had seen the goddess.
This was also the first time he saw Graniwin. At that time, Graniwin was very casual because he had just escaped from the shackles, and he actually started singing on the sea level.
It was the most beautiful song Xuanqiu had ever heard in his life. They all said that mermaid songs can confuse people's hearts. This legend is true, just like Xuanqiu fell in love with Graniwin at first sight and was fascinated by her beautiful voice.
In singing, this is the eternal dream in his heart.
I was so obsessed with Graniwin's beautiful singing that I couldn't help myself. It wasn't until the singing stopped that Xuan Qiu came to his senses.
I saw a thick bolt of lightning striking straight towards Graniven. As the lightning struck down, Graniven shook his body and sank towards the depths of the seabed.
Xuan Qiu was very clear about the origin of this lightning, because the mage who had finished reciting the spell had not yet withdrawn his gesture.
That's right, Master Jerry, who is officially standing next to him, is a thunder mage and the national advisor of the empire. Can a mermaid with such a weak magic really be able to defend it?
Although he is a military general, Xuan Qiu is definitely a general. He stared deeply at His Majesty's back, and he had completely sketched out the outline of this matter in his mind.
Just when Xuan Qiu looked anxiously at the sea level and hesitated whether to jump down, a majestic order sounded.
"What are you still doing? Why don't you go down and rescue her?"
This is the first time that he has been so close to His Majesty, whom he admires most, and it is also the first time that he has been deeply disappointed with His Majesty, whom he has always admired.
Without any hesitation, and without even having time to remove his armor, Xuan Qiu jumped into the sea.
The cold sea water penetrated his heavy armor, causing him to shiver violently, and his limbs suddenly felt cramped. If he encountered such a situation, he would definitely choose to go ashore first.
However, Xuan Qiu did not hesitate at all because he was worried about Granowen's safety. He held his breath and allowed his body to sink rapidly.
The feeling of suffocation made his ears buzz, and the pressure on the seabed made it difficult for him to move. A feeling of death filled his heart, but when he thought of Graniwin, he steeled himself and began to search the seabed.
Finally, with the blessing of the God of Creation, he found the figure of Graniwin.
Without any hesitation, he hugged her tightly and swam desperately toward the sea level.
He hadn't breathed air for a long time, and no matter how strong he was, he was still a little weak, but when he looked at Graniwin in his arms, all his fatigue was overcome by the will to survive.
With his final push, Graniwin was finally dragged into the recipient's arms.
Seeing that Granowen was safe, Xuanqiu raised a smile of relief at the corner of his mouth. Without any needle pricks, he allowed his body to sink. After pushing Granowen away, he had lost all his strength.
The feeling of exhaustion made him close his eyes unconsciously.
Fortunately, some soldiers had quick eyesight and fished him out, otherwise he would have died here.
Xuanqiu still deeply remembered the scene when Graniwin mistakenly regarded His Majesty as his savior. He had imagined countless times in his mind. If all this was not a conspiracy, if Granivin was really in danger, if
The person who rescued her was herself, and the first thing she saw was herself. Will Graniwin smile at herself gratefully, look at her shyly and not dare to look up, and fall in love with herself who rescued her?
However, after all, there are not so many ifs. He is just a small guard captain, so what kind of courage does he have to influence such a well-planned conspiracy?
After all, they had no chance. Maybe His Majesty set up such a conspiracy just to get to know her, and His Majesty would definitely treat her well! Seeing the scene of His Majesty picking up Graniwin, Xuan Qiu comforted himself in his heart.
Things were just as I expected. His Majesty was really kind to her. As long as it was any request she made, His Majesty would go out of his way to do it for her and always give her good things. But it was an honor.
He loved her so much that he even made her his queen.
Looking at Granowen's happy smile, Xuanqiu put away the ripples in his heart. He just wanted to be an unknown knight next to the goddess. He did it, so he became the most outstanding general of Nanfeng Kingdom, sweeping the country away for His Majesty.
Got through a lot of obstacles.
After he succeeded and retired, he chose to be the commander of the palace defense force, responsible for the safety of the palace and guarding her safety. Even if he was watching her happiness from a distance, he would be happy too!
His Majesty was very satisfied with his proposal. Who doesn't understand the principle of great achievements that shake the master? This smart choice made Xuan Qiu appreciated again. The position of commander of the city defense army was Nanfeng's arrangement for him.
Originally, Xuan Qiu just wanted to guard her with peace of mind. But, just today, his goddess shed tears!
This was the first time he had seen such a sad and desperate Granewon. It was a bit strange for such a painful expression to appear on the innocent Mermaid Queen. After asking a few hesitant guards, with his clever mind, he had already
He faintly figured out the truth of the matter.
Xuan Qiu was extremely angry and her face became very dark. He wished he could rush in and kill the person who made her so sad.
But looking at Graniwin's retreating back, he knew that if he did this, she would definitely hate him!
Reluctantly giving up such an idea, he indulged himself for the first time. He followed her quietly, leaning down to pick up every teardrop from hers.
With the warm tears in his hands, his heart was even more painful than that of Graniven. His goddess suffered for others, but he couldn't do anything about it. How depressing it was.
The door of the bathhouse was closed with great force, and he leaned against the door and grieved with Graniwin.
Although he couldn't hear the sound inside, he knew that she must be crying. What a kind person. Even if she was hurt, she didn't go in to question the person who hurt her deeply. All the sadness was left to herself.
How many times did he want to push the door open, but when he thought about what he had done back then, he felt that he was not qualified. He hesitated, so he could only cowardly guard the door, feeling her sadness.
.
As time passed by, along with a faint smell of blood, Xuan Qiu suddenly felt that something was not good, and regardless of etiquette, he kicked in the door of the bath.
Sure enough, everything was blood-red, the sand turned reddish-brown, and the sea water turned red. How much blood would it take to change the color of a pool of sea water!
The imperial doctor's office was bustling with people, and despite the obstruction of others, Xuan Qiu chose to wait by Granivine's side without hesitation.
His hand held Granowen's hand tightly, wanting to give Granowen the last bit of warmth.
Someone has already rushed to inform their Majesty, and it is estimated that that person will appear soon.
When he shows up, Xuan Qiu must question him. Why did he hurt her again since he put all his effort into marrying her?
"Nanfeng... Nanfeng... don't hate me, Granowen can't live without you..."
A weak voice came from beside her, it was Graniwen. Even in her sleep, even though she was so seriously injured, there was still only their Majesty in her heart.
Hearing such a helpless cry, Xuanqiu, who was holding Graniwin's hand, trembled suddenly, and a sad emotion filled his heart, staring deeply at Graniwin's pale cheek.
Her cheeks were stained with some blood and looked gray, but she was still so beautiful.
He stretched out a hand and was about to touch her cheek, but when he saw his blood-stained palm, he retracted it.
He sighed deeply and wanted to break away Graniwin's fingers that were tightly grasping his own, but Granivin's grip was too strong and he couldn't break free.
A helpless and desolate voice came from Xuan Qiu's mouth, seeming to be speaking to Graniwen, and also seeming to be comforting himself.
"Your south wind will come soon, sleep peacefully, you will be fine after a good sleep!"
As if hearing Xuan Qiu's comfort, Graniwen's frowning eyebrows relaxed a lot, and the fingers that were holding Xuan Qiu loosened.
Looking at his empty palms, Xuan Qiu smiled sadly, stood up and walked towards the door.
The imperial doctors around him looked at each other in confusion at such a strange scene, but no one pointed it out. After all, this young and promising general was Nanfeng's hope for the future, so they chose to turn a blind eye to such a thing.
When Xuan Qiu walked out the door, Nan Feng was rushing in. His clothes were messy, which showed that he had rushed here after hearing about this incident.
Seeing Xuan Qiu standing by and not bowing when he saw him, Nan Feng just glanced sideways and went in without looking back.
