The First Prince's weak voice came from behind, causing Lu An to stop in his tracks.
Although it was late at night, there were always lights and deafening noises in the dark forest. Lu An turned around and looked at the First Prince who was lying in the grass, frowning slightly.
With the First Prince's current situation, he was indeed waiting for death. If the previous serious injury was enough to end his life, then the last blow that Lu An gave him just now accelerated the process.
Now, the First Prince probably didn't even have the strength to stand up, let alone leave the forest. Not to mention that there could be a battle in the forest at any time, and there were also strange beasts. Even if he could safely wait until tomorrow morning, the heavily injured First Prince would probably be a corpse.
However, Lu An's expression didn't show any pity. Looking at the First Prince, there was only calmness in his eyes.
Now that he had so many marks, he definitely had the strength to fight for the top three. There was no need for him to stay in the forest any longer. Leaving under the cover of night was the best choice. However, there must be people guarding the exits now. Even going out by himself was a problem, let alone bringing someone like this with him.
"What's in it for me?" Lu An asked coldly, "What can you give me?"
"I … will give you money …" The First Prince coughed a few times with every two or three words. Blood kept flowing out of his mouth as he said, "I will give you pills … I will give you Heaven Arts …"
Hearing the First Prince's words and looking at him, Lu An's face showed no other expression other than seriousness.
"I only need the mark." Lu An said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, but you have nothing that can attract me."
With that, Lu An turned to leave.
"Don't go …" Seeing that Lu An was about to leave, the First Prince hurriedly struggled on the ground. However, he couldn't stand up at all and could only crawl on the grass.
Hearing this, Lu An stopped and turned back to look at the First Prince. He asked coldly, "What, did you think of the extra marks?"
"No …" The eldest prince lay on the ground, weakly looking at Lu An and said, "I am the eldest prince of Shang Qi, and also the future king … As long as you save me … I can give you all the glory and wealth …"
The First Prince was sweating profusely as he looked at Lu An. In his opinion, his words were enough to shake any Celestial Master present. After all, the purple lake was just an opportunity. To these Heavenly Masters, he was the greatest opportunity.
However, under the First Prince's astonished gaze, Lu An's expression became even colder as he said, "I'm not interested."
With that, Lu An turned around and left.
This time, Lu An left without hesitation. He strode off into the distance. The First Prince watched as Lu An walked further and further away. He was very anxious and kept shouting!
"I beg you! Save me! "
"I'll give you whatever you want!"
"Don't go!"
"Don't go …"
"…"
Puff!
Due to his agitation, the heavily injured First Prince spat out a mouthful of blood. The scarlet blood dyed a large patch of grass. However, the First Prince did not care.
That was because he was shocked to see that the young man in the distance had stopped!
That's right, Lu An had stopped.
He frowned and clenched his fists. His gaze was extremely solemn.
"Damn it!" Lu An cursed softly and gritted his teeth.
Then, Lu An suddenly turned around. Under the First Prince's astonished gaze, he strode back until he stood in front of him.
That was because Lu An was standing in front of him. He did not have the strength to lift his head and could not see Lu An's complicated expression that was filled with anger.
In fact, Lu An really did not want to save anyone.
If he saw an injured person from afar, he would definitely not take the initiative to save him. He knew very well that meddling in other people's business would only make things more troublesome for him. Only by focusing on his own path would he be able to go further.
However, seeing it from afar was one thing. Seeing it in person was another. Especially when the First Prince was asking him for help. Lu An did want to leave, but he could not.
In his heart, some obsession did not allow him to do so.
"Troublesome!" Lu An said again. Then he lowered his head and pulled the First Prince up from the ground. At the same time, he channeled his Fate Wheel into the First Prince's body to help stabilize his internal organs.
Seeing that Lu An had actually come back to help him, the First Prince was extremely excited. He quickly said, "As long as I return to the Shang Qi Kingdom, I will definitely make you a high-ranking official and let you live a luxurious life …"
"Shut up!" Lu An gritted his teeth. He was already in a bad mood, so he angrily interrupted him. "If you don't want to die, save your strength and stop talking!"
The First Prince was stunned. In his 40 years of life, no one had dared to talk to him like that. He did not expect to be taught a lesson by a young man.
Soon, Lu An stabilized the First Prince's internal organs. Although he was still seriously injured, he could at least survive until tomorrow morning. Once he got out, he could find someone to treat him.
However, after Lu An's attack, the First Prince could no longer use any Divine Origin Force. Now, he was similar to an ordinary person. Other than being able to walk, he could do nothing else.
"Thank you!" The First Prince looked at Lu An and hurriedly said.
"I'll say the bad words first." Seeing the First Prince's gratitude, Lu An's expression was still cold as he said, "I am only a Level 2 Heavenly Master. It will be very difficult for me to leave this place by myself. If I find out that bringing you along will become a burden to me, I will immediately abandon you. Do you understand? "
Hearing this, the First Prince was stunned and hurriedly said, "Understood!"
"Also." Lu An frowned and said, "If you encounter other powerful Celestial Masters on the way, if you call them for help, I will be in danger at the cost of your position and the mark in my hand. Before anything happens to me, I will kill you first. Do you understand?"
Hearing Lu An's words, the First Prince was stunned again. This time, he looked at Lu An in shock.
From the beginning, he felt that this young man was different. Whether it was the Heavenly Arts, pills, or the wealth he promised, none of them could move this young man. This was already very strange. What was even stranger was that this young man could think so far ahead!
Looking at Lu An's gaze, the First Prince immediately nodded and said, "Remember!"
"Okay." Lu An nodded slightly and said, "Let's go."
Following this, the two of them once again sneaked into the night and quietly rushed out of the forest.

Purple Lake City, City Lord's Mansion.
It was already late at night, but Yang Mu, who was lying on the bed, was still unable to sleep.
She tossed and turned in the quilt, not feeling sleepy at all. Now, her mind was filled with what happened yesterday. Her mind was filled with everything that happened in the forest.
After all, this was the first time in her life that she was truly separated from her mother. Without her mother's protection, and without the protection of her position.
Since returning yesterday, she did not know how Lu An was doing in the forest alone.
Although she had never been in the Forest of Horrors where the flames of war were everywhere, she had heard of how tragic the last day was. With such a high death rate in the forest, could Lu An survive with his strength?
Therefore, she could not sleep that night. Finally, she could not help but sit up from the bed and shouted, "Xiao Lan!"
Just as the voice came out, Xiao Lan quickly walked in from outside and looked at Yang Mu and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"To find my mother!" Yang Mu said.
