Chapter 871 – Successful Escape
871 – Successful Escape
TL: BluVerse
“How are you? I need to verify your ident.i.ty,” the Soul Master’s voice sounded in Lan Xuanyu’s ears.
Verify his ident.i.ty? Lan Xuanyu decided to play dead and remained silent. However, the healing Soul Master seemed to be a rather persistent person. After getting no response, she immediately approached and began searching for anything related to his ident.i.ty on Lan Xuanyu.
How could he let her find anything? Lan Xuanyu raised his hand silently and struck a palm on the Soul Master’s shoulder and neck, rendering the healing Soul Master unconscious.
Climbing off the bed somewhat helplessly, Lan Xuanyu’s physical strength had recovered a bit by now. Carefully, he a.s.sisted the doctor onto the bed and moved his body a bit.
In the nearby sink, he washed off the bloodstains from his face, then found a mask and put it on. Lan Xuanyu listened to the commotion outside and finally walked out of the treatment room.
Without bloodstains and with a mask on his face, he was undoubtedly well-disguised. It was clear that not only he but also others had suffered from mental trauma, as everything appeared busy, and n.o.body noticed him.
He quickly walked out and, coincidentally, when he was about to leave the hospital, he b.u.mped into Doctor Chen Le.
Lowering his head, he briskly walked past Chen Le. Chen Le seemed to sense something and subconsciously glanced at him, feeling that this person looked somewhat familiar. Was this the Spirit PaG.o.da staff who had already been healed?
After leaving the hospital, Lan Xuanyu looked around and immediately slipped into a nearby alley. He then dialed the soul communicator on his wrist.
“Where are you?”
“On my way. How are you?” Bai Xiuxiu’s voice came in a bit urgently.
“I’m fine, just a few injuries. Nothing major. I’ve already left the hospital on the Spirit PaG.o.da side. I’ll share my location with you; let’s meet on the way,” Lan Xuanyu said. He didn’t dare to linger here; he had just knocked out a healing Soul Master, and if discovered, it would be troublesome. It would be even worse if it attracted powerful individuals from the Spirit PaG.o.da.
After speaking, he connected the soul communicator with Bai Xiuxiu and quickly approached Bai Xiuxiu’s direction, following the guidance provided by the soul communicator. Everything went smoothly, and twenty minutes later, he finally reunited with Bai Xiuxiu. It was only when they got into the car that Lan Xuanyu heaved a sigh of relief. He laid back on the car seat and breathed a bit heavily.
“How did you get injured? What were you doing?” For confidentiality reasons, the academy required Lan Xuanyu to keep the details of his trip to the Advanced Ascension Platform a secret. Therefore, even his closest companions didn’t know what he had been up to.
“I’m fine, don’t worry. I was on a mission for the academy. It went relatively smoothly,” Lan Xuanyu closed his eyes. With Bai Xiuxiu by his side, he relaxed completely and soon entered a deep sleep. The depletion of his body was still too severe.
When Bai Xiuxiu woke him up after the car stopped, they were already at his dormitory.
“Xuanyu, your physical condition seems quite poor. Are you okay?” Bai Xiuxiu looked at Lan Xuanyu, who had been sleeping all the way, full of concern. This was the first time she had seen Lan Xuanyu so tired, and how could she not worry?
“I’m fine. Just got a few injuries, not serious. Do you still not believe in my body’s resilience?” Lan Xuanyu rubbed his eyes. Surprisingly, he felt much better after a good sleep. With his powerful self-healing ability, he had already recovered 30%-40% of his injuries. However, his bloodline aura was still seriously depleted, and he needed proper rest.
“Do you want me to stay with you? Should I call Mengqin to come and treat you?” Bai Xiuxiu asked.
The abundant vitality in the Sea G.o.d Lake, especially for someone with his life affinity, would provide the best recovery effect. Moreover, the replenishment of life energy would be the least likely to have any side effects.
Glancing at the number, he quickly answered the communicator. As soon as the communication was established, an urgent voice came from the other side, “Xuanyu, where are you?”
This voice was authoritative and familiar but carried a hint of unusual anxiety.
“Master w.a.n.g, I’ve already returned and am currently near the Sea G.o.d Lake,” Lan Xuanyu respectfully replied. The caller was none other than Vice Master of the Sea G.o.d Pavilion and Thunder G.o.d Douluo, w.a.n.g Tianyu.
“Wait for me there.” w.a.n.g Tianyu ended the communication. In just over ten seconds, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, landing beside Lan Xuanyu.
Seeing w.a.n.g Tianyu’s sudden appearance, Tang Yue and Bai Xiuxiu, who were accompanying Lan Xuanyu, were both astonished. Especially Bai Xiuxiu, who suddenly thought, what kind of mission did Xuanyu undertake that even the Vice Master attached so much importance to it?
“You two, go rest first,” w.a.n.g Tianyu waved to Tang Yue and Bai Xiuxiu. Then, his gaze swept over Lan Xuanyu’s body, immediately sensing that Lan Xuanyu’s physical condition was not quite right.
Bai Xiuxiu and Tang Yue returned to the guardian cabin by the Sea G.o.d Lake. At the lakeside, only Lan Xuanyu and w.a.n.g Tianyu remained.
“Are you injured? What happened?” w.a.n.g Tianyu asked.
Lan Xuanyu replied, “It was an accident, purely accidental. Pavilion Master, how is it going on the Spirit PaG.o.da’s side? When I escaped, I had no idea about their reaction.”
w.a.n.g Tianyu’s mouth twitched, and he said, “This is also the question I wanted to ask you. What did you do? The Spirit PaG.o.da has gone crazy. Three G.o.d-level powerhouses directly entered the information flow with their divine consciousness, launching a frantic counterattack. They almost captured the positioning coordinates of the Tang Sect. If we hadn’t withdrawn in time, it would have been a big problem. Moreover, Spirit PaG.o.da has directly confronted us and the Tang Sect, acting crazy without evidence, even threatening to fight desperately.”
“Ah? Is it that serious?” Lan Xuanyu blinked his eyes.
w.a.n.g Tianyu stared at him and said, “Quickly, tell me, what did you do? You haven’t been in the Advanced Ascension Platform for long! How did you come out?”
Lan Xuanyu coughed and said, “It seems I caused some damage to them. I used a newly comprehended ability.”
He then recounted the process of experimenting with the Elemental Storm inside the Advanced Ascension Platform. He didn’t have much to hide in this regard.
w.a.n.g Tianyu listened in astonishment, and his expression changed repeatedly.
“… So, I don’t know what happened. I only know it was a ma.s.sive explosion. I almost blew up my main body outside. This must be due to a problem with the Advanced Ascension Platform at the Spirit PaG.o.da caused by the information flow attack. Pavilion Master, I don’t know if we have completed our a.s.signed task…”
While speaking, Lan Xuanyu stole a glance at w.a.n.g Tianyu’s expression and noticed that after a moment of astonishment, a strange smile appeared on his face.
w.a.n.g Tianyu raised his hand, patted Lan Xuanyu’s shoulder, and said, “You are truly a talent.”
“Uh?” Lan Xuanyu looked at him, unsure if the Vice Pavilion Master was speaking sincerely or sarcastically.
“Take good care of your injuries and rest. Don’t leave the academy for a while,” w.a.n.g Tianyu advised. After saying this, he transformed into lighting and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
