Gong Qi slowly raised her eyes. Amid the shattered ice and snow, Fei Wu approached in a crimson robe, his presence overwhelmingly oppressive.
His sharp brows and eyes made his bearing seem even more exceptional, carrying the aura of a king.
Gong Qi's gaze lowered, and she saw that one sleeve beneath Fei Wu's red robe hung empty. Blood flowed down his robe like water.

Right now... she looked as though she could still breathe,
