256 Escape (1/2)
He had moved to the center of the explosion on his own accord. Because he hadn't expected such a frightening explosion, Envoy Guiluo was the nearest to the center of the explosion in his pursuit of Mo Wen.
The results were as expected. Facing such a violent explosion, even though he had the cultivation of the Embryonic Breathing realm, he suffered quite a severe injury.
Furthermore, he had lost his target and had retreated a kilometer away.
Blargh!
Mo Wen turned pale and vomited a mouthful of fresh blood. Although he dodged in time and was a few hundred meters away from the explosion, the explosion was so violent that he was still injured. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough and escaped to that distance, he would have been more seriously injured.
Using the momentum of the explosion, Mo Wen didn't rest one bit, but instead rushed down to the bottom of the mountain in a flash. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared at a speed that was even faster than before.
Envoy Guiluo looked at Mo Wen's gradually receding figure, and his face turned extremely gloomy. Those gloomy, cold eyes could almost freeze water into ice.
However, he didn't continue to chase after Mo Wen. With the hindrance of the explosion, he almost couldn't catch up with him. The youngster's speed was not much slower than his, so by the time he chased after him, that youngster would have disappeared.
”The next time we meet, I will kill you on the spot.”
Envoy Guiluo looked a little awkward. With the venerable cultivation of the Embryonic Breathing realm, he had chased after a youngster in the Qi Nucleation realm but actually let him get away. To him, this was undoubtedly a humiliation.
After saying those harsh words, Envoy Guiluo turned around angrily and returned to the Qin Clan manor house. He still had important things to handle which couldn't be delayed, so naturally it was impossible to continue to be in an entanglement with the youngster.
Mo Wen had held Qin Xiaoyou in his arms and dashed down the mountain all the way without stopping.
Although encountering an expert in the Embryonic Breathing realm was a surprise to him, he had mentally prepared for it long ago. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to the Qin Clan on his own accord.
However, this expert in the Embryonic Breathing realm was obviously not a member of the Qin Clan but was a member of the Heretic Organization. What did that mean? It meant that the Qin Clan had been in collusion with the Heretic Organization. If he was to report this information to Huatian Palace, the future days of the Qin Clan wouldn't be so comfortable anymore.
After both of them returned to the small courtyard, Mo Wen asked Qin Xiaoyou to return to the school while he went back to the room immediately to invigorate his Qi to heal his injury.
It took exactly one night for his injuries to be healed and for him to be recovered to his ideal state.
By that time, it was already morning with the sun shining outside the window. It looked especially enchanting.
When he stepped out of the door, a whiff of something delicious filled the courtyard. The aroma wafted into his olfactory senses.
Mo Wen's stomach growled, as he had not eaten anything in 24 hours. Furthermore, he had exhausted too much of his strength in his long period of fighting with the Qin Clan, so now he was really hungry.
”Why are you not back at school?”
Mo Wen furrowed his brows when he stepped out of the room and saw Qin Xiaoyou, who was busy with something. After he told Qin Xiaoyou to return to school last night, he immediately went into seclusion to heal his injuries, so he hadn't had time to bother about her.
Currently, the Qin Clan must be in chaos now, so naturally they wouldn't bother about Qin Xiaoyou. Mo Wen figured she should be relatively safe at the moment.
However, he didn't intend to let Qin Xiaoyou continue staying in this compound. After all, the Qin Clan had already noticed her, so they would definitely not let her go so easily. They would definitely think of ways to capture her in the future.
It was impossible for him to be with her every second, so her safety would be a problem.
Therefore, Mo Wen asked her to return to the school. In the school, there were some secret ancient martial art practitioners who were in command, and the ancient martial arts influences outside would have difficulty intervening. If he was to notify Old Man Wei in advance, the problem of Qin Xiaoyou's safety could be resolved.
As long as she didn't step out of the school gate, the Qin Clan shouldn't have the ability to capture her, or anyone, from Hua Xia University.
When he was able to settle the Qin Clan matter completely, Qin Xiaoyou would have fewer worries.
”I…”
Qin Xiaoyou lowered her head. Both hands were glued together, and her lips trembled a little. She didn't dare look at Mo Wen.
”Didn't sleep last night?”
Mo Wen walked to the front of Qin Xiaoyou and stroked her head tenderly. He realized that her eyes were bloodshot and looked haggard, so she obviously hadn't slept all night.
”Uh-huh,” Qin Xiaoyou acknowledged softly. After she noticed that Mo Wen was fine, her heart was tremendously relieved.
Yesterday, she had been totally shocked when Mo Wen vomited blood, so she couldn't sleep. She anxiously kept watch outside Mo Wen's room the whole night, but didn't dare to disturb him.
The experience yesterday had simply left her with an impression that led to her present state of being hesitant and completely lost.
”Your injury…?” Qin Xiaoyou asked cautiously. Although Mo Wen looked fine on the surface, she still couldn't help but worry, so she needed to hear it from the horse's mouth.
”My injury has long recovered. That small injury was nothing. At the most, it relaxed my bones. Don't worry. I am a miracle physician, so it is nothing to me.” Mo Wen assured her convincingly while patting his chest.
