Chapter 928 - 926: Like a Lost Soul
The City Guard hurriedly called Lin Kaifeng, saying that two young women had driven a car into the East City center, and urged him to send people to stop them, even reporting the license plate.
Chen Tianlong was sitting beside him; Lin Kaifeng happened to be in the hall, ready to discuss the special training for the Li Family Army with Chen Tianlong. Suddenly, this license plate number was reported, making Chen Tianlong frown deeply.
Isn’t this the license plate number of his Audi car? How could it appear here?
"Lin, you said there were two women in that car just now?"
"Yeah, how did you know, Chen Tianlong?"
"Damn, that’s my car, and inside are my lady and Xiaoyu." Chen Tianlong stood up abruptly. Before Lin Kaifeng could react, the roar of a car engine was heard outside; evidently, Chen Tianlong had already set off.
Ten minutes later, on the road leading from the city center to the border, a red Ferrari sped like a whirlwind.
And halfway along the road, a team of people surrounded a shabby Audi, while those inside hadn’t come out yet.
The Ferrari stopped on the roadside at the fastest speed, and Chen Tianlong appeared next to the Audi car with a Ghost Shadow Flash, without anyone noticing.
Lu Xiaoyu stubbornly refused to open the car door. After all, she didn’t know this group, and when they asked her who she was, she didn’t dare to answer. Suddenly seeing Chen Tianlong appear in front of her, she thought she was dreaming.
"Xiaoyu, come out quickly, it’s me! Chen Tianlong." Chen Tianlong knocked on the car door while looking inside at the few people, especially Lu Xiaoyu’s terrified look, feeling a wave of heartache.
This usually quirky little girl, how could she ever be so frightened, she must have encountered something very dangerous.
Lu Xiaoyu finally reacted from her fear, hurriedly pushed open the car window, and without a word, dropped into Chen Tianlong’s arms, crying uncontrollably, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Wuuu... Chen Tianlong, I thought you didn’t want me and Wushuang anymore, wuuu.... I was scared to death!" Lu Xiaoyu cried as she pounded on Chen Tianlong’s back, but this beat had no effect on Chen Tianlong.
Suddenly, Chen Tianlong’s gaze fell upon a person lying in the back seat, pale-faced, and the wristwatch on her hand made his heart ache, "Wushuang, what’s wrong?"
After releasing Lu Xiaoyu, Chen Tianlong, like a lost soul, rushed into the car, pulled Lin Wushuang out, and shouted desperately a few times, but there was no response.
Frightened, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly pinched her pulse with his trembling hand.
After a long time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, but tears had already filled his face. These were tears shed unconsciously from fear and worry, which showed how much Lin Wushuang meant to Chen Tianlong.
At first, he didn’t tell Lin Wushuang about their trip to Ice City because he was afraid that he couldn’t protect them after they arrived, and he couldn’t bear the consequences if any incident occurred. But something that was meant to happen had happened anyway. Lin Wushuang was now very weak and could die at any moment.
Without saying much, Chen Tianlong held Lin Wushuang and then said to Lu Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu quickly get in the car, I’ll take you back."
They switched to a large truck, and Chen Tianlong took the three of them back to the Lin Family Mansion.
At this point, Wu Mengting and Ouyang Meijia were both there, watching Chen Tianlong’s anxious expression and red crying eyes, understanding began to dawn.
It turned out that Chen Tianlong’s love for Lin Wushuang had always been hidden.
Wu Mengting took a deep breath and began to feel relieved.
"Lin, do you have any Great Rejuvenation Pills? Lend me two, and I’ll repay you double later!" Chen Tianlong knew that only Great Rejuvenation Pills could temporarily save Lin Wushuang’s life.
Lin Kaifeng frowned. Such an item as Great Rejuvenation Pills was worth a fortune, and the Lin Family had less than five. Now Chen Tianlong asked for two right away, which was quite difficult.
"Yes, I’ll go get them now!" After thinking it over, Lin Kaifeng felt this was the best opportunity to win over Chen Tianlong. If he didn’t take out the Great Rejuvenation Pills now, expecting him to work hard for them in the future would be impossible.
As expected, Chen Tianlong nodded gratefully.
Lin Kaifeng quickly went to the pharmacy and brought the Great Rejuvenation Pills, and Chen Tianlong, without saying a word, directly stuffed the pills into Lin Wushuang’s mouth. This was a crucial moment concerning life and death.
Shortly, with Chen Tianlong’s help, Lin Wushuang swallowed two Great Rejuvenation Pills, and Chen Tianlong’s hand never left her pulse, causing the ladies to panic, even Wu Mengting forgot about the ambiguous relationship between Chen Tianlong and Lin Wushuang.
At such a life-or-death moment, who cares about these things?
About ten minutes later, Lin Wushuang suddenly coughed violently, then gasped sharply, vomiting a mouthful of black blood, finally waking up.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong was overjoyed; the accumulated blood had finally come out, not in vain for the amount of Powerful Qi he just consumed to force it out. However, Lin Wushuang’s condition was far from optimistic, as Chen Tianlong could feel a strong Fire Attribute Qi surging within her body.
What’s going on?
"Xiaoyu, how did Wushuang get injured?" Chen Tianlong asked urgently.
"Oh, we were attacked by a group from the Fire Domain when we passed through," Lu Xiaoyu said truthfully.
"Yes, and the person was a Profound Dao seven-star, though he didn’t seem to use his full strength," Bing Xiaotao added.
Upon hearing this, Chen Tianlong frowned again. The people from the Fire Domain were indeed vicious, not even sparing unarmed girls, which made Chen Tianlong feel some hatred.
"Chen Tianlong, if it’s people from the Fire Domain, I’m afraid it’s troubling for Lin Wushuang," Lin Kaifeng, who had been silent, finally spoke.
"Ah? Why?" Chen Tianlong asked, puzzled.
Lin Kaifeng had long expected Chen Tianlong to ask this, so he explained truthfully: "The Fire Domain experts, due to the regional issues, usually cultivate with the Fire Element Heart Method. If it’s a Profound Dao seven-star expert, and they intend to torture you, they would certainly use their vicious technique, Fire Poison."
"Fire Poison again?" Chen Tianlong recalled that Wu Mengting had once been poisoned like this, but back then, they went to the Ice Hall, and it was cured with the Ice Spirit Fruit. But now the Ice Hall no longer has any Ice Spirit Fruits left; they’ve been used up. Otherwise, Bing Ruxue would not have fallen ill so severely.
"Yes, I’ve heard that this poison can only be cured by the Ice Spirit Fruit, or..."
At this point, Lin Kaifeng hesitated.
"Lin, if you have something to say, just say it, or what?" Chen Tianlong asked urgently.
"It’s rumored that there’s a place in the Fire Domain, called the Fire Sea Extreme Land, which is the area with the strongest Fire Attribute and is also the origin of the Fire Domain. If you can use the fire source spiritual qi from there for a Poison Attack, there might be a glimmer of hope, but... we need to check Lin Wushuang’s constitution. If her Fire Attribute is very weak, I wouldn’t recommend doing this, it’s very dangerous!" Lin Kaifeng explained.
Hearing this, Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, thinking this was truly tricky. Not mentioning anything else, just going to the Fire Domain was already difficult, as both sides had just fought a battle. If they go out at this time, they will be hunted down, so how could there be time for treatment?
