Chapter 39 Yuwen Huang Shields Me
The expected sharp pain never arrived.

"Thud—"
It was the muffled sound of a blade piercing flesh.
My whole body stiffened.
I felt warm liquid instantly soak through the clothes on my back.

The air grew thick and still.
He leaned against my shoulder breathing heavily.
His scorching breath sprayed against the side of my neck.

He gritted his teeth.
His voice trembled from the pain yet carried unquestionable imperial authority as he roared at everyone still fighting.
"All of you... stop for me!"
