Chapter 85 Is she going to die?
"Xiao Xi'er, are you scared?" Xiao Mingxuan was worried that the other party would be frightened by such a posture, so he quickly hugged the person in his arms and comforted him softly, "It's okay, Xiao Xi'er, even if there are assassins, I can get you out, don't be afraid."

Xiao Mingxuan knew that the Jiang family had bad intentions, so he arranged for the maid to bring people to wait outside in a secluded place.

If anything happens, he only needs to protect Xihe until reinforcements arrive, and he will be safe.

"I'll send out a flare right now. They'll be here soon."

Just as Xiao Mingxuan was about to stand up, Xihe grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Little brother..." Xihe inhaled too much poisonous fragrance, which hurt her throat and her voice became a little hoarse.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Mingxuan looked outside, then returned and hugged the little girl tightly to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, I'll be back soon."

Xihe shook her head and said, "Don't go. It's too late. They have people in the backyard too. They are around us. I can feel it."

In fact, it was the sacred tree that gave a warning.

At the moment when she was semi-conscious, an invisible blue aura surrounded her. It was the divine power that Xihe had long lost.

It was because of this that she was able to retain her last bit of clarity. Otherwise, this young and weak body would have died immediately.

The Jiang family wants their lives.

"Around?" Xiao Mingxuan's expression changed slightly. He carefully looked around. There was only the sound of the wind blowing through the flowers and plants swaying. "Are you sure?"

Xihe nodded, and she lay in Xiao Mingxuan's arms. The poisonous gas lingering in her heart collided wildly with the spiritual energy in her body. For a moment, it seemed as if all her internal organs were about to break. "Little brother, those people are hiding in the flowers and plants around us. They are watching us. We can't wait for the reinforcements. It's too late."

If they made any movement, the group would appear immediately and kill them on the spot.

"Are... we really going to be trapped here to death?" Xiao Mingxuan hated himself for being so useless. If he were not ten years old but twenty years old, if he was not restricted in every way but held power.

If he had been more careful, Xihe would not have been in danger of her life.

"Little brother, don't blame yourself. We are all very young. You have done very well, really." Xihe seemed to have the ability to read minds and saw what Xiao Mingxuan was thinking at a glance.

A ten-year-old child from an ordinary family would probably still be playing in the mud, but Xiao Mingxuan could already support half of Zhao Xihe's life.

"But I still put you in danger." Xiao Mingxuan said weakly.

"It was Xihe who wanted to come. If you want to trouble someone, it should be me who troubles you." Xihe endured the pain and forced a smile at him. "Besides, who said we can't get out?"

Xihe leaned close to Xiao Mingxuan's ear and whispered, "Brother, I'm out of strength. Just keep running along this road and then go into the first house at the corner. There... is a way out."

"Don't be afraid, I'll carry you." Xiao Mingxuan propped himself up and ran forward desperately while holding the little Xihe in his arms.

Sure enough, as soon as they moved, they smelled a few unfamiliar auras in the bushes behind them.

Sure enough, there were people there, and they were all top-notch masters. The Jiang family really invested a lot of money.

Xiao Mingxuan didn't dare to look back and just ran towards the place Xihe said. He pushed the door open and saw a bedroom inside, but it was covered with dust for a long time and didn't look like anyone had lived there.

"Portrait... There is a mechanism behind the portrait." Xihe couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.

This body can no longer hold the pure spiritual energy of the past, and is on the verge of collapse. If it is not cleared, I am afraid it will explode and die.

Xiao Mingxuan opened the scroll and saw a secret compartment with a porcelain bottle on it. He turned it slightly and there was a loud noise behind the bed, and a passage appeared. The moment they entered the passage, the stone door behind them closed again.

Xiao Mingxuan let out a deep breath and leaned against the stone wall, completely exhausted.

No matter how powerful he was, he was only a little over ten years old. He had been through the poisonous incense and the pursuits along the way, and he had already exhausted all his strength and was only holding on on his last breath.

"Xiao Xi'er, is the influence of the poison gas still severe?" At first Xiao Mingxuan thought it was because of the poisonous incense, but even after the incense was gone, Xihe was still shaking violently. This was not a normal reaction.

There was no trace of blood on Xihe's lips, her face was as pale as paper, and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat. She bit her lower lip tightly, and a few strands of blood flowed out between her teeth, stinging Xiao Mingxuan's eyes.

"Xiao Xi'er, let go! Don't bite yourself." Xiao Mingxuan stretched out his hand to hold her chin, freed her lips from her mouth, and offered his hand instead, "Bite me."

Xihe endured the pain that surged like a flood in her body, glanced at Xiao Mingxuan's hand, and bit it hard, "Little brother, just for a moment... just for a moment, it really... hurts."

Feeling the pain, Xiao Mingxuan subconsciously frowned, but endured it without making a sound. He freed one hand and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Xihe, "Eat it, it will detoxify you."

After the last incident on the cliff, Xihe made a lot of pills and gave them to Xiao Mingxuan. Unexpectedly, they would actually be useful one day.

Xihe shook his head with a dull face, "It's useless, little brother, it has nothing to do with poison, it's..."

She suddenly stopped talking and looked at Xiao Mingxuan with wet eyes. The unfinished words were stuck in her throat, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"What is it?"

Facing Xiao Mingxuan's dark eyes, Xihe seemed to be afraid of nothing for a moment. The secret that had been hidden for a long time finally fell on her lips, just like the moment when the Ubis sword cut down the ghosts, it came with a bang, "It's... spiritual power."

Xiao Mingxuan stood there in a daze. After a long while, a faint voice came out of his lips, "Spiritual...Spiritual power?"

Xiao Mingxuan had only seen this statement in the stories of gods and ghosts, but had never thought that one day he would hear it from Xihe's mouth. However, he was not as shocked as he had imagined, after all, there were signs of all this.

Xihe's limbs and bones were in extreme pain. The impact of the spiritual energy seemed to have broken the bones of her whole body. "Yes, I don't know why, but the spiritual power suddenly came back, but I can't bear it. If... I don't clear it, I will die."

Before he finished speaking, Xihe seemed to have lost all his strength, and fell limply into Xiao Mingxuan's arms like a piece of rotten meat.

Her breath became weaker and weaker, and Xiao Mingxuan felt a huge panic rising in his heart.

die?
No, it cannot be done.

That was an ending he could never accept in his entire life.

"Xiao Xi'er, hurry up and clear the blockage!" Xiao Mingxuan's voice was filled with an unnoticeable cry. "Tell me, how can I help you? How can I clear the blockage? How can you survive?"

"say something!"

Xihe's consciousness became increasingly unclear, and her five senses were gradually dissipating.

She could no longer see the little brother's face, and slowly her hearing seemed to be damaged, with voices becoming smaller and farther away.

I walked through the bustling crowd and headed towards the old friends who had long gone.

Is she...going to die?
