Chapter 1149 - : Hermit (1/2)

In the medical room of the Cape family, a man stood in front of the bed. His palm emitted a faint glow as he pressed it above the wound on Buzz’s abdomen.

Buzz’s wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not only was it a physical wound, but even the wound on the Guardian armor rapidly healed. Soon, the wound completely vanished.

“Your Excellency, I’m incompetent. I’m sorry to trouble you to personally treat me.” Buzz stood up and bowed.

The man retracted his palm and said indifferently, “It’s not your fault. Ming Xiu’s sword art has indeed reached an extremely high level. Among Mythical creatures, there aren’t many who can withstand a single strike from him. This matter ends here. What happens in the future has nothing to do with you or the Cape family. Just do your job well.”

“Your Excellency… Are you going to do it yourself?” Buzz’s body trembled as he hurriedly asked.

He knew very well how terrifying this person was. Among the four heads of the League of Guardians, although Hermit’s reputation wasn’t as great as Cave Era and Blood Shaman, anyone who knew him knew that this person might be even more terrifying than the former two.

“Just do your job well,” Hermit said.

“Yes, Your Excellency.” Buzz hurriedly bowed his head in agreement.

After speaking to Hermit, he happened to meet Beryl, who had come to visit him. Beryl gave Hermit a curious glance when Buzz hurriedly pulled her aside and introduced her to him. “Your Excellency, this is my niece, Beryl.”

Hermit nodded slightly and left the hospital without looking at Beryl.

“Uncle Buzz, who is that person? You appear to be afraid of him?” Beryl asked curiously.

“Child, don’t ask. Why are you here?” Buzz hurriedly stopped before looking in the direction Hermit had left. He heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that Hermit was gone.

“Uncle Buzz, you are really heartless. I came to see you out of kindness, but you are giving me such an attitude,” Beryl said angrily.

“Alright, I surrender. I’m fine. I won’t die. Don’t worry,” Buzz said dotingly.

“That Ming Xiu is really detestable. To think that I used to worship him so much. He actually wanted to kill you. Thankfully, you’re fine,” Beryl said.

Buzz shook his head and said, “He didn’t try to kill me with that strike. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be my abdomen that was injured.”

“I see. In that case, he’s not too bad.” Beryl looked in the direction where Hermit had left. Seeing that there was no one there, she whispered, “Uncle Buzz, is that person from the League of Guardians? Seeing how afraid you are of him, he must be a high-ranking member of the League of Guardians, right?”

“I told you not to ask. In the future, you can’t mention anything about the League of Guardians. Got it?” Buzz repeatedly exhorted Beryl.

Although Beryl agreed, she had something on her mind.

After leaving the hospital, Beryl found an excuse to return to school and ran straight for the lounge where Zhou Wen and company were.

The seated Zhou Wen and Tsukuyomi were chatting in the lounge while Ming Xiu stood there motionless for quite some time.

Due to Tsukuyomi’s words, Ming Xiu seemed to have had an epiphany. The strength in his body was undergoing a tumultuous change.

This was an extremely dangerous moment, so Zhou Wen had no choice but to guard him and not let anyone disturb him.

Just as he was chatting with Tsukuyomi, Zhou Wen suddenly sensed someone walking towards the lounge. Furthermore, the footsteps were rushed. He used Truth Listener to carefully scan the area and realized that the person was the girl they had met a few times on campus.

“Professor Ming, are you there?” Beryl came to the door and knocked anxiously.

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Wen opened the door and asked.
