Chapter 186: They Only Kneel to the Gods

Bai Wei was held in Xiao Moting's arms.

She looked up at him, her almond eyes soft.

He lowered his head, gazing deeply at her, his pitch-black, star-like eyes reflecting only her figure.

Their gazes met, their breaths intermingling.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still.

It was unknown how much time had passed when Xiao Moting, gazing deeply at her, spoke in a low, hoarse voice.

"Is it Shennü Daren... am I not dreaming?"

Bai Wei finally came back to her senses, her cheeks burning like fire.

"Xiao, Xiao Moting, you... you put me down first."

Xiao Moting's gaze flickered, a bright radiance surging in his pupils, as if something had been ignited.

His chest rose and fell, but he only said one thing in a low voice.

"Alright."

Whether it was an illusion or not, Bai Wei felt his sturdy chest, his heart beating violently, as if it were about to jump out of his chest.

Thump, thump...

Xiao Moting took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the wild emotions surging at the bottom of his eyes.

He walked to the bed and, as if placing a precious treasure, carefully set Bai Wei down on his bedstead.

This was not a dream.

This was the Goddess he had dreamed of and yearned for.

He had to restrain himself; he could not frighten her, and even less could he hurt her.

Bai Wei sat on the edge of the bed, quietly letting out a sigh of relief in her heart; in truth, she was also incredibly nervous, her face flushed red.

Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly saw Xiao Moting kneel on one knee and was instantly stunned.

"You, what are you doing?"

Xiao Moting knelt on one knee, looked up, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Shennü Daren, I have offended you just now... I had no choice but to touch your body, I am guilty!"

Bai Wei did not know whether to laugh or cry.

It was just a hug; the illustrious Prince of Northern Suppression was actually kneeling to apologize for such a small matter, and his face had even turned red.

"Get up quickly, I will not punish you."

She had no time to say more and quickly jumped off the bed.

"Take me to the soldiers who have gone mad quickly; I brought medicine, I can save their lives."

A flash of surprise crossed Xiao Moting's eyes.

He stood up.

"Shennü Daren, did you come to Daliang in person to treat the soldiers?"

"I will take you there right now."

Bai Wei hurriedly bent down and picked up the medicine chest from the floor.

But just as she reached out, Xiao Moting was a step ahead of her; with a stretch of his long arm, he took the medicine chest into his hands.

"Wait a moment."

Following that, he opened a bundle, picked out a brand-new moon-white inner garment, and tore off a piece with force.

"Shennü Daren, this place is very dangerous; please put on a face mask, do not let anyone see your appearance!"

Bai Wei took the cloth, covered her face with it, and only her pair of bright, sparkling almond eyes were exposed.

"Are you afraid that bad people will hurt me?"

Xiao Moting's thin lips curved slightly, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"With me here, I will never let anyone hurt you."

Like a little tail, Bai Wei followed behind Xiao Moting and walked out of the tent.

This was not her first time coming to Daliang, and she had also let her consciousness travel here, having seen the Beijiang Junying countless times.

But now, she had truly arrived at the Beijiang Junying, feeling the iron-blooded spirit of the ancient warriors at close range!

The last time Bai Wei came to Daliang, she felt extremely uncomfortable; she only stayed for ten minutes before she could not breathe and was forced to return to the modern era.

But this time, the temporal pressure she felt was not as great.

Instead, the Phoenix Jade Pendant she wore on her body emitted waves of warmth, dissolving the discomfort in her body.

Bai Wei was very surprised.

Could it be because she was staying by Xiao Moting's side?

She could not help but quietly look forward.

Xiao Moting's figure was tall, and his features were very handsome, yet he lacked any feminine air, possessing instead an abundance of heroic spirit.

Perhaps due to years of martial arts practice, there was not an ounce of excess fat on his body; he had broad shoulders, a strong waist, and very long legs.

The other party was tall and long-legged, one of his steps being equal to two of hers.

Bai Wei was petite, and carrying the heavy medicine chest, she found it a bit difficult to keep up.

Xiao Moting probably noticed this, paused his steps, took the medicine chest from her hands, and spoke in a low voice.

"I will carry it."

"Thank you." Bai Wei raised her lips and smiled at him.

Xiao Moting's heart trembled, and he looked down at the ground, feeling uneasy.

Whether it was an illusion or not, Bai Wei noticed his cheeks were slightly flushed, and his earlobes were completely red.

She let out a quiet giggle.

She never expected that the Northern Frontier War God, who made enemy armies tremble at the mere mention of his name, would have such thin skin!

The Military Doctor was guarding the tent where the maddened soldiers were held; he looked up and saw Xiao Moting, and just as he was about to salute, he caught sight of the woman behind him and his mouth fell open in shock.

"Prince, this woman, she is... she is..."

"Do not ask what you should not ask." Xiao Moting said in a low voice, then personally lifted the tent flap to let Bai Wei enter.

The tent was very spacious, and dozens of soldiers were lying inside.

The soldiers were bound with hemp ropes, their eyes bloodshot, and they let out low, muffled growls through the rags stuffed in their mouths.

Seeing someone enter, the soldiers immediately glared with ferocity, struggling desperately as if they would pounce the next second.

Bai Wei raised her eyes and scanned them one by one.

The soldiers before her were all covered in blood, filth, and wounds; some even had large gashes from sword cuts, their skin torn open and their bones exposed.

Yet, despite their injuries, they received no treatment and were still being tortured by toxins, suffering immensely.

Bai Wei felt a sting in her nose, but she immediately held it back.

"Alright, I will treat your illness right away."

Her soft, gentle voice seemed to have a kind of magic; the soldiers in the tent who had been howling and thrashing just a moment ago actually quieted down significantly.

Without further ado, Bai Wei immediately took a white coat out of her medical kit and put it on, then nimbly cracked open the ampoules, mixed the medicinal powder, and picked up the syringe...

Xiao Moting stepped forward and held down a struggling soldier.

Bai Wei gave an injection, injecting the medicine.

In an instant!

The gaze of the frantically struggling soldier turned murky, and he immediately closed his eyes and fell into a quiet sleep.

"Once they wake up, the toxins in their bodies will be cleared."

Bai Wei explained as she picked up the next syringe.

Time was of the essence, and she had to hurry.

She kept preparing medicine and giving injections...

Treating the maddened soldiers one by one.

Time ticked away, second by second.

A layer of fine sweat seeped out on Bai Wei's forehead.

She had to treat nearly a hundred soldiers; it was no small task.

When the last injection was given, Bai Wei finally let out a breath of relief.

Xiao Moting immediately stepped forward, "Bai, you should go and rest for a while."

Bai Wei shook her head in refusal.

"No, I will treat the wounded soldiers first."

While she was giving injections, she had noticed there were quite a few wounded soldiers in the camp.

The ability of the Northern Frontier Army's Military Doctor was limited; even if they learned medicine by following the videos she sent, they could only treat basic injuries like fractures and flesh wounds...

But there were also soldiers in the camp who were severely wounded.

Especially after just experiencing a fierce battle, many soldiers had serious injuries, and with the hot weather, their wounds had become inflamed.

If this continued, it would be fatal.

Xiao Moting did not move; he was worried about Bai Wei's health, as she was, after all, a young woman.

Bai Wei unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and took a sip.

"I am fine, bring the severely wounded soldiers over."

"I will treat them, go quickly."

"As long as you do not leave my side, I will have no problem!"

She could not let Xiao Moting get too far away from her, fearing she would be subjected to the pressure of space and time again.

Xiao Moting nodded slightly, "I will be right here; call me whenever you need anything."

He turned his head and gave an order in a low voice.

"Bring all the most severely wounded soldiers in the camp here."

The order was passed on.

The wounded soldiers were brought to the front of the tent one by one, lining up to wait for treatment.

Although Xiao Moting did not say it explicitly, the news spread throughout the entire camp.

The wounded soldiers had tears in their eyes as they knelt in front of the tent.

They were all the most severely injured soldiers, but because the Military Doctor's medical skills were limited, many of their injuries could not be treated, and they could only resign themselves to fate and wait quietly for death to arrive.

However...

She had come!

Like a fairy descended from the heavens, she pulled them back from the brink of death, one by one!

Without realizing it, the entire Northern Frontier Army had rushed to the outside of the tent.

The vast, dark mass of the army stood quietly at the entrance, and then, one by one, they knelt on the ground.

There were no orders, no words.

Everyone knelt spontaneously, their eyes brimming with tears.

The Northern Frontier Army were men of iron and blood, the fiercest wolves of the snowy plains!

They did not kneel to heaven, they did not kneel to earth, and they did not kneel to a foolish ruler!

They only knelt to the deity in their hearts!

The night was pitch black, with only a single tent ahead, from which a bright, orange-yellow warm light leaked through the gaps.

Inside the tent, a petite figure was swaying.

The lamp was bright, and she was holding a scalpel, busy treating the wounded soldiers...
