Gu Yan just remembered Wan Fang recently recovered from an illness. She and Guo Rou glanced at each other, and the two ran to the back in unison.

Zhang Cuihua sneered, “Even if you carry her, you wouldn’t end up running faster than me. So, if the results aren’t good, it will be all your fault. It has nothing to do with me.”

Guo Rou gritted her teeth upon hearing her. “Gu Yan, if you get a chance to put her in a bag and beat her up, let me join. I have never heard someone with such a foul mouth!”

“Mhm, we will soon have the opportunity.”

Gu Yan was worried about Wan Fang.

The two soldiers had run for ten minutes before finally seeing the pale-faced Wan Fang, who was struggling to walk.

Wan Fang was only 1.6 meters tall, making her shorter than both Gu Yan and Guo Rou. Her body wasn’t particularly tough, and due to her previous condition, she was even frailer now.

Seeing the ashen Wan Fang, Guo Rou immediately offered, “Come, I’ll carry you!”

Wan Fang cried after seeing her two comrades.

She wobbled, and luckily, Gu Yan caught her in time. Otherwise, she would have keeled over.

Wan Fang’s eyes welled up with tears. “Sorry, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault…”

“You have nothing to be sorry about. Let’s do it, we can finish this race for sure.” Gu Yan held Wan Fang and allowed Guo Rou to carry her on her back.

Gu Yan still had bandages on her right arm. Running was still acceptable, but Guo Rou definitely wouldn’t allow her to carry someone.

Hence, she could only run by their side and comfort Wan Fang.

Guo Rou originally wanted to scold Wan Fang for forcing herself despite her poor condition. However, upon seeing how much she cried, she swallowed those words down.

Never mind, she was doing it for their collective glory.

At least, Wan Fang had a clear goal in mind. She was much better than Zhang Cuihua who was just lazy.

As expected though, there was no one else around them anymore.

Gu Yan narrowed her eyes.

Zhang Cuihua was right. Even if she and Guo Rou carried Wan Fang, they still might not attain third place.

They went too far back. If they carried Wan Fang on top of that… Guo Rou might run out of stamina in the end.

Furthermore, Guo Rou wasn’t going to let Gu Yan carry Wan Fang no matter what. Everyone thought her hand hadn’t recovered yet.

Guo Rou awkwardly comforted Wan Fang. “My sister, don’t cry. Save some breath. Each time you cry, I will tremble along with you.”

Gu Yan lowered her head. She then summoned the green light and made it circle Wan Fang.

This was the first time Gu Yan had witnessed a situation like this. It was different from healing Shen Jiayi’s sprained ankle.

There was a clear target at the time.

Hence, she didn’t know how well the jade pendant would work right now.

She intentionally cured Wan Fang for a long while.

When Guo Rou was beginning to pant, Wan Fang suddenly exclaimed, “I-I seem to have recovered my energy.”

“Perhaps my internal force is passed on to you.” Guo Rou was left breathless.

Gu Yan knew the truth. It was the magical power taking effect.

She withdrew the green light quietly and grinned. “Alright then, Guo Rou is definitely an unparalleled master. How about putting Wan Fang down and letting her try again?”

“I can still run for another half an hour while carrying her.” Guo Rou didn’t want to admit she couldn’t actually go forward anymore.

In the end, she had to let Wan Fang down.
