Lian Xinling held Xia Mi's body, trembling slightly. Yi Chen stood on the other side, bare-chested, several layers of bandages already wrapped around him. Cultivators generally did not use bandages. But he no longer had the strength to use mana to close his wounds and stop the loss of blood. Several sword wounds had pierced his lungs and viscera, nearly damaging his foundation.
