Chapter 673

"Guo'er, you absolutely must not be alright!"

"Guo'er!!! If something happens to you, how am I supposed to answer to Brother Kang!!!"

A hot-blooded man like Guo Jing, seeing the unconscious Yang Guo at this moment, had eyes filled with extreme panic.

After Guo Jing carried Yang Guo to the bed, he did not tend to the injuries within his own body, but instead directly channeled the internal energy in his dantian to heal Yang Guo.

Standing by the bedside, Lu Wushuang looked at Guo Jing and Yang Guo on the bed with eyes full of anxiety.

Although she was extremely anxious inside, she did not do anything to disturb Guo Jing. Having spent so many years with Yang Guo, Lu Wushuang had long known that Guo Jing's kindness toward Yang Guo was sincere and genuine.

She knew that now, apart from herself, only Guo Jing truly and sincerely wanted to be good to Yang Guo.

As Guo Jing channeled his energy to heal Yang Guo and felt the injuries within Yang Guo's body, the tense expression on Guo Jing's face slowly began to ease.

After another moment passed, Guo Jing slowly opened his eyes, then used his hands to gently lay Yang Guo back down on the bed.

Seeing the anxiety in Lu Wushuang's eyes, before she could even speak, Guo Jing hurriedly said to her:

"Miss Lu, there is no need to worry; Guo'er is not in any serious danger."

"He is only physically weak right now because he expended too much internal energy after using that heaven-shaking sword strike just now."

"He will be fine after resting for a while."

In truth, Guo Jing was just as worried as Lu Wushuang, but only after repeatedly confirming that there were no problems within Yang Guo's body did he feel a bit more at ease.

Yang Guo did not need anything else right now; he would recover just by resting.

Seeing this, although Lu Wushuang believed Guo Jing's words, she still personally checked Yang Guo's pulse.

Only after confirming that Yang Guo was truly alright did Lu Wushuang gently let out a sigh of relief.

However, just as Lu Wushuang had set her mind at ease regarding Yang Guo, Guo Jing suddenly collapsed to the floor.

Seeing this, Lu Wushuang hurriedly helped Guo Jing up and then checked his pulse.

"Guo Daxia??? Guo Daxia??? What happened to you??!!"

Lu Wushuang cried out loudly.

Upon feeling Guo Jing's pulse, Lu Wushuang's eyes suddenly filled with shock.

Guo Jing could be said to be at the point of total exhaustion.

His continuous battles against the Jin Army in Xiangyang City had already consumed a great deal of his energy.

Furthermore, he had suffered severe internal injuries in multiple parts of his body.

Thinking back to how Guo Jing was still able to channel energy to heal Yang Guo just now, Lu Wushuang was shocked beyond measure by Guo Jing.

After being stunned for a moment, Lu Wushuang slowly helped Guo Jing up and began to channel her own energy to heal him.

Whether it was Guo Jing's personal charisma influencing Lu Wushuang or the fact that Yang Guo would be in immense pain if Guo Jing died after waking up, in any case, Lu Wushuang was determined not to let anything happen to Guo Jing in front of her.

As Lu Wushuang slowly channeled her internal energy into Guo Jing's body.

Guo Jing's originally pale complexion became somewhat rosy. After Lu Wushuang temporarily stabilized the injuries within Guo Jing's body, her own face was already covered in cold sweat.

After Lu Wushuang slowly exhaled, she helped Guo Jing to Yang Guo's side.

In truth, Guo Jing did not have any overly severe injuries, so it did not take Lu Wushuang long to stabilize his condition.

The reason Guo Jing's pulse had felt like total exhaustion just now was because he was too fatigued, and the endless succession of battles had simply given him no chance to catch his breath.

The accumulation of countless minor wounds, combined with the lack of rest for too long, was what had left Guo Jing in this state.

Now, all Lu Wushuang could do was wait for Guo Jing and Yang Guo to wake up.

And this rest of Guo Jing's lasted for five whole days before he finally woke up.

If it hadn't been for Lu Wushuang and Yang Guo stabilizing the morale of the people in Xiangyang City, these five days might have caused a major disaster in the city.

After Guo Jing woke up, the first thing that met his eyes was Yang Guo's face.

"Uncle Guo!!! Uncle Guo!!! Are you alright now??!!"

Yang Guo looked at Guo Jing with eyes full of worry.

He was terrified that Guo Jing would just keep sleeping like this and never wake up again.

Now, in Yang Guo's heart, apart from Guo Jing and Lu Wushuang, he had no other kin left in this world.

Because he had been asleep for so long, Guo Jing was dazed for a moment after opening his eyes. Seeing Yang Guo's face, Guo Jing did not worry about his own body, but directly asked Yang Guo:

"Guo'er, I'm glad you're alright!"

"If something had happened to you in front of me, how would I have answered to Brother Kang in the future!"

Looking at Yang Guo before him, Guo Jing's eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions; he thought of Yang Kang and the days they had spent roaming the Jianghu together.

"I'm fine, I recovered after resting for less than a day!"

"It's mostly you, Uncle Guo, please check if there are any problems within your body!!! You absolutely must not have anything happen to you right now!"

Yang Guo said slowly to Guo Jing.

He had not expected that the first thing Guo Jing would say upon waking up would be to worry about his own safety, which made Yang Guo admire Guo Jing even more.

Hearing Yang Guo say he was fine, Guo Jing felt relieved, but then, as if thinking of something, a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

"How is the Great Jin army doing?"

"Has anything gone wrong in Xiangyang City during the time I was asleep?!?"

A trace of anxiety appeared in Guo Jing's eyes as he looked at Yang Guo, and he hurriedly asked him.

Seeing Guo Jing's current state, a trace of helplessness appeared in Yang Guo's eyes.

Regarding Guo Jing, Yang Guo truly had no other way; it seemed that to Guo Jing, everything was important, and only he himself was unimportant.

"Xiangyang has been temporarily stabilized."

Looking at the anxious Guo Jing, Yang Guo said slowly.

"During the time you were unconscious, countless people from the Jianghu came to Xiangyang City to help us resist the Great Jin's attacks."

"Now, it is not just the Elders and disciples of the Beggar Sect from the Southern Song who have come to Xiangyang City; the Northern Beggar Hong Qigong, Qiao Feng, Duan Yu, the three brothers Xuzhu, and countless other experts from the Jianghu have all arrived in Xiangyang City."

"With their help, Xiangyang City will certainly be safe for the short term."

"However, the Great Jin has now surrounded Xiangyang City, and food and supplies cannot be transported in from the outside."

"We can indeed hold Xiangyang City for now, but if the imperial court does not send troops to reinforce us, I fear that even experts like you and me will be worn to death by the Great Jin's endless army."

Yang Guo said very helplessly; regarding the current situation in Xiangyang City, Yang Guo did not hide a single thing from Guo Jing.

He knew that if he wanted Guo Jing to recover properly, he had to tell him the truth.

When Guo Jing heard Yang Guo's words, a trace of excitement first appeared in his eyes, followed by worry, but before long, a look of determination appeared in Guo Jing's eyes.

"The imperial court will never forget us!"

"As long as we hold Xiangyang City firmly now, the moment the imperial court is free, they will definitely send troops to reinforce us!"

Guo Jing said very firmly.

Upon learning that Xiangyang City would not face any problems in the near future, Guo Jing began to circulate his internal energy to repair his own injuries.

He knew that what he needed to do now was to quickly restore his combat strength. Guo Jing believed that as long as they worked together, Xiangyang City would absolutely not face any problems!

And the Southern Song behind him would not face any problems either.
