Chapter 567: Chapter 567: Save Her... Please

Hu Yan carried Su Qinglan tightly in his strong arms while sprinting rapidly through Dragon Beast City. The wind brushed fiercely against their bodies as the scenery around them blurred past at terrifying speed.

Normally, Su Qinglan would never allow herself to be carried around so casually, especially now that her stomach had already grown so large. But this time, she remained unusually quiet and obedient.

Because both of them clearly understood one thing.

Bai Ling’s condition must already be extremely serious.

Otherwise, Wen Ru would never have looked so panicked earlier while delivering the news.

Hu Yan naturally understood Su Qinglan’s worry very well, so he did not hesitate at all before directly picking her up and rushing toward Bai Ling’s house at full speed. He only tightened his hold around her more carefully, afraid she might accidentally get hurt while they hurried there.

Meanwhile, Su Qinglan rested quietly against his chest while her fingers unconsciously gripped his clothes tightly.

Her mind felt chaotic and restless as countless terrible possibilities continuously appeared inside her head. She could only close her eyes briefly while praying silently that nothing bad had happened to Bai Ling and the cubs.

Suddenly...

Ding!

A familiar notification sound rang clearly inside her mind.

Su Qinglan immediately opened her eyes again.

"Xuyu?"

The system’s serious voice quickly echoed inside her head.

"Host, Bai Ling’s current condition is extremely dangerous and critical."

The moment she heard those words, Su Qinglan’s heart immediately tightened painfully. Her fingers stiffened slightly around Hu Yan’s clothes while she waited nervously for the system’s explanation.

The system quickly continued speaking in a serious tone.

"In late pregnancy, especially when birth is already near, a heavy fall onto a pointed rock or hard object can become life threatening. The female body becomes extremely vulnerable during this stage because the cubs are already fully developed and the uterus is under great pressure."

Su Qinglan’s face slowly turned pale while listening carefully.

"If the abdomen suffers heavy impact, several dangerous complications may happen immediately. The most common danger is placental abruption. This means the placenta partially separates from the uterus after the trauma. Once that happens, heavy bleeding begins and the cubs may rapidly lose oxygen supply."

Su Qinglan’s breathing immediately became heavier.

The system continued explaining calmly.

"Another danger is internal injury. A strong impact may damage the uterus or surrounding blood vessels, especially if the female falls directly onto her lower abdomen or side. Heavy blood loss can quickly lead to shock, unconsciousness, weakness, cold skin, and eventually organ failure."

Hu Yan could clearly feel Su Qinglan’s body stiffening slightly in his arms while listening.

"And finally..." the system continued gravely, "if labor does not progress naturally because the female loses consciousness or strength, the cubs may remain trapped inside too long. Once oxygen supply decreases severely, the cubs may suffocate inside the womb."

At that moment, Su Qinglan finally realized how truly critical the situation had become.

Her heart sank heavily.

Not only was Bai Ling in danger...

Even the cubs might not survive.

Just then, Hu Yan finally arrived outside Bai Ling’s house. The atmosphere around the house was already chaotic and tense.

Many tribe members had gathered nearby with worried expressions while sobbing continuously echoed from inside the house.

The moment Hu Yan stopped, Su Qinglan immediately jumped down from his arms and rushed inside without hesitation.

The strong metallic smell of blood instantly assaulted her senses the moment she entered the room.

Su Qinglan’s expression immediately changed.

Bai Ling was lying weakly on the bed with an unnaturally pale face.

Sweat completely soaked her body, while the animal fur beneath her had already been stained heavily red with blood. Her breathing looked weak and uneven, while her consciousness was clearly slipping away.

Wen Fei knelt beside the bed while tightly holding her hand as though afraid she would disappear the moment he let go. His face had already lost all color while his eyes were bloodshot from panic and fear.

Meanwhile, his mother anxiously tried stopping the bleeding nearby with trembling hands.

The atmosphere inside the room felt suffocating.

Su Qinglan immediately moved forward and carefully checked Bai Ling’s condition under the system’s guidance. But the more she examined, the heavier her expression became.

Bai Ling’s pulse felt weak.

Her body temperature had already begun dropping.

And worst of all...

She was no longer responding properly.

Meanwhile, labor contractions were still happening, but Bai Ling had already lost too much strength and consciousness to continue giving birth naturally.

Su Qinglan instantly understood the severity of the situation.

The cubs could not remain inside any longer.

Otherwise, they would truly suffocate.

At that moment, Wen Fei suddenly grabbed Su Qinglan desperately as though she were his final hope.

"Save her..."

His voice sounded broken and hoarse from fear.

"Please... save Bai Ling..."

Looking at his trembling hands and devastated expression, Su Qinglan suddenly felt her own throat tighten painfully.

Wen Fei no longer resembled his usual calm self at all. He looked like someone whose entire world had already collapsed completely.

Meanwhile, Wen Fei’s mother also looked at Su Qinglan pleadingly with red eyes.

"Qinglan... please save my daughter in law..."

Su Qinglan inhaled deeply before forcing herself to calm. No matter how nervous she felt right now, she could not panic.

"I will do my best," she finally said firmly.

The older female immediately nodded tearfully.

Then Su Qinglan looked toward Wen Fei seriously.

"You need to leave first."

But Wen Fei did not react at all. He continued holding Bailing’s hand tightly while staring blankly at her pale face.

It was as though he could no longer hear anything around him. Seeing this, Su Qinglan’s heart felt even heavier.

At this moment, Wen Fei had clearly already lost himself from fear. Finally, Su Qinglan looked toward Wen Fei’s mother.

"Auntie, please go outside first too."

The older woman immediately nodded tearfully before slowly walking outside.

However, Wen Fei still remained beside the bed without moving at all. He continued gripping Bai Ling’s hand tightly while staring blankly at her pale face, as though unable to hear anything happening around him anymore.

Seeing his broken appearance made Su Qinglan’s heart feel even heavier.

At this moment, Wen Fei had clearly already lost himself completely from fear and despair.
