Lan Xihe now had nothing in her hands, yet she continued to tightly shield Jun Ning, vowing to protect Jun Ning to the death, even without any means of defense, even if it meant being torn apart by lions.
As long as she had one last breath, she would protect Jun Ning.
Jun Ning didn't want Lan Xihe to use her own body to protect her; she wanted to push Lan Xihe aside, so she could take up the dagger herself.
She still had a dagger and could hold on for a while.
But...
Lan Xihe couldn't possibly let herself be pushed aside; she gritted her teeth and fiercely protected Jun Ning.
After trying to push a few times and realizing she couldn't, Jun Ning thought about calling a few assassins nearby to help. The more people, the greater the strength.
She shouted, "Quick, someone come over here and help."
But after a long time, no one came.
