The King's Enchanting-Chapter 1447 - 1459: Crime and Punishment (Part 6)
However, just at that moment, Situ Xuan suddenly noticed a large chunk of debris and dirt was crashing down toward Jian Anning!
If she were hit by the dirt and stones, she would definitely be in grave danger!
And Jian Anning, who was running ahead, hadn’t noticed at all and was rushing towards that dangerous area!
"Anning, watch out!" Situ Xuan quickly took a couple of steps forward and forcefully pushed Jian Anning away. She, taken by surprise, stumbled forward a few steps, nearly falling over.
By the time she realized what had happened and turned back to look, the large chunk of debris and dirt had already completely fallen on Situ Xuan!
Jian Anning froze, completely astonished that Situ Xuan had saved her life at that critical moment!
When she came to her senses, Situ Xuan was already completely buried by the debris and dirt, lying on the ground!
"Si..."
Before she could finish saying a word, more dirt came cascading down with a "whoosh," quickly covering the area where he was!
Situ Xuan was entirely buried in the dirt, his fate unknown!
Jian Anning was completely stunned. She never imagined that in such a critical moment, it would be Situ Xuan who jumped out, not only saving her from the brink of death but also choosing to push her away and fall himself in that situation!
Her mind went blank, utterly dazed. At that moment, she even forgot to run away!
Although when Situ Xuan was bullying her earlier, she really wished he’d die. But when he actually saved her life and was buried in dirt, she found herself unable to just turn and leave!
If Situ Xuan really died like this—she would feel guilty for the rest of her life!
She hesitated for a moment, then lowered her head and called out, "William! William! Are you okay? William!"
"Ungh—" The sound of scraping stones came from inside. Upon hearing it, Jian Anning immediately leaned in, disregarding the danger of more falling rocks above, and did her best to pull him out!
Soon, she saw a hand sticking out of the dirt pile, dirty with patches of mud. Without hesitating, Jian Anning rushed to grab it, pulling with all her strength, slowly dragging him out of the dirt pile!
Soon, both of Situ Xuan’s hands emerged, followed by his head. He shook it off and crawled forward forcefully. Jian Anning, exhausted, helped him until he finally escaped the dangerous situation!
Fortunately, the large chunk that fell was mostly wet mud with few stones. Although dirty and unsightly, it wouldn’t injure him!
As soon as Situ Xuan emerged from the dirt, he didn’t bother to clean the mess off himself and immediately said, "We have to go! It’s dangerous here!"
Jian Anning didn’t say much either. The two quickly ran away, and just after they passed the turn, a loud crash echoed behind them! They turned back to see the path they had just taken was completely covered by the collapsed mountainside! The black and gray dirt, large chunks of rock, and trees growing on the cliffside were all swept away by this massive force, crashing directly into the abyss! The sound of branches snapping "crack" was constant, utterly terrifying!
If she hadn’t pulled Situ Xuan with all her might, he might really have died there!
