<h4>Chapter 579: How Lucky One Was</h4>


    Warm, viscous blood mixed with the rain and slowly flowed into Gu Nansheng’s mouth. To the already unconscious Nansheng, it was like stumbling across crystalline waters in the middle of a desert. She began to suck on it subconsciously, even if the fluid tasted a little metallic and sweet. She could not help but drink it vigorously, as though she would survive as long as she did that.


    Feng Tian could feel Gu Nansheng’s fighting spirit to live on. Gu Nansheng began to suck harder and harder, until her intermittent breathing slowly became more extended and finally steadier. Feng Tian heaved a sigh of relief.


    Her blood worked. It really worked!


    So long as she could save Nansheng, nothing else mattered!


    Gu Nansheng’s mind became clearer and clearer. The sweet, metallic taste of blood still lingered on her tongue, apanied by a stream of blood still gushing into her mouth. She struggled to open her eyes slightly, only to find Feng Tian propping her up from behind. She lowered her eyes and saw the delicate wrist on her lips, unbothered by the pelting of raindrops.


    This was...


    Gu Nansheng was startled at once. What she had been drinking was not water, but Feng Tian’s blood!


    The sudden realization pulled Gu Nansheng back into rity immediately. She turned her head away and loosened her lips, “Tian!”


    “Let me treat your injuries.”


    Gu Nansheng regained some strength and left Feng Tian’s embrace. She tried her best to sit up as she turned around. She looked at her, face to face, and saw that Feng Tian was ghastly pale. Not only that, but blood was still dripping from her wrist as well.


    Why was she...


    “Treatment.” Feng Tian raised her hand and pointed her palm right towards Gu Nansheng’s chest. Without rest, she pumped her Spiritual Force of Nature into Gu Nansheng. As the vines were living in her body, her Spiritual Force of Nature held regenerative effects.


    “Tian...”


    Feng Tian gently interrupted what she was about to say, “Don’t speak. Distracting. The Spiritual Force will be disrupted.”


    Once she said that, Gu Nansheng dared not speak another word. She could feel the spiritual force of nature seep into her body little by little, and it made her feel warm andfortable. Slowly, her injuries began to heal, and she began to gain more and more rity. She could feel strength and energy returning to her body.


    Gu Nansheng raised her eyes and stared at Feng Tian, who transfused her Spiritual Force of Nature into her with utmost seriousness. Her face was as pale as a sheet, and big drops of rain sshed on her face. It added an element of vulnerability and handicap to her beauty, like a red flower swaying in a storm. It was so alluring, so ethereal.


    At that very moment, Gu Nansheng felt that it must be the greatest luck in her life to have had a close friend like Feng Tian.


    So that was the extent friends could go! They were willing to eveny down their lives for her!


    She had thought that everyone was selfish by nature, and that everyone would only treat others kindly when their interests and safety were ensured. But today, she realized that that was not the case.


    At least, Feng Tian had shown with her actions that that was not the case!


    How lucky she was to have found a friend like that!


    Feng Tian’s Spiritual Power soon began to run dangerously dry. Without the support of the Spiritual Force of Nature, those vines started to lose their battle strength and slowly faltered. However, that ck shadow wasn’t doing any better either. It was covered in wounds, clearly drained of its Spiritual Force.


    Gu Nansheng took everything in. So long as they could hold the fort for another 15 more minutes, she thought, the ck shadow would surely be defeated!


    She began to count the minutes in her heart. She watched as the ck shadow gradually got weaker and weaker under the ceaseless attack of the Man Eating Flowers. They were winning! This gruesome battle would soon be over!


    However, when she saw a ck shadow closing on them, Gu Nansheng’s eyes widened in shock and fear. She immediately reached out and pushed Feng Tian away in great force!


    Poof!


    The connection of Spiritual Force transfer suddenly broke, and Spiritual Force began to run amok within her body. She threw up a mouthful of blood and felt a sudden warmth stream down her face. The metallic scent of blood filled her nose!
