"Xiao Zhu!"
Baili Qingfeng suppressed the phantom of the Giant Sword. Without having time to investigate it carefully, he rushed to Baili Zhu's side at once.
Baili Zhu's face was deathly pale, and her spirit had grown extremely weak, as if she might fall unconscious at any moment. Even so, she still forced herself to look at Baili Qingfeng. "Qingfeng Gege... are you all right?"
