Chapter 531 - Limit Douluo (2/2)

I’m not dead?

His mind snapped into focus. He directed his senses inward and felt the blood coursing through his veins, into his heart which thumped with life, and fresh air filling his lungs. His body was in perfect condition! Relief and joy washed over him. He jumped off his bed and pulled open the curtains on the window. Huh? Am I in the Blacksmith’s Association? He realized he was not just alive, but also safe.

The last thing he remembered before losing consciousness was the malum soul master throwing him to the ground and the growl of a man’s deep voice. He could only guess at what happened after, but this unknown man had probably driven the malum soul master off. Who was he? Did he save us?

While Tang Wulin pondered these questions and many more, Zhen Hua walked in. “Oh, you’re up.” He walked over and clapped Tang Wulin on the back to check on the boy’s health. Wow. This kid’s already as lively as a dragon!

Tang Wulin grinned. “Uncle-master!” After staring death in the face and waking up with more questions than answers, he was overjoyed to see his uncle-master.

Zhen Hua let out a long sigh. “I don’t deserve to be your uncle-master after letting you face so much danger. I never expected those malum soul masters to be so daring.”

“Uncle-master, were you the one who saved us? How’s Gu Yue? Is she okay?”

“She’s fine. She’s resting in another room. And I wasn’t the one who rescued the two of you. By the time we arrived, both of you were unconscious and there wasn’t a trace of that malum soul master. Do you remember what happened?”

Tang Wulin recounted what happened, not missing a single detail.

“Bloodsucking? That malum soul master must be using a blood cultivation method,” Mu Ye said as he walked over.

“Uncle Ye!” Tang Wulin exclaimed. Now that he knew Mu Ye here too, he felt more even more reassured that everything was okay.

“You guys have class today, don’t you?” Zhen Hua asked. “It’s already too late to make it for your morning classes. If you don’t have anything else to take care of here, I’ll escort both of you back to campus.”

Tang Wulin agreed and after grabbing Gu Yue, they were soon off in Zhen Hua’s HAF car.

Sheepishly glancing at Gu Yue, Tang Wulin quietly said, “I’m sorry! It’s my fault you got involved in all that trouble.”

Gu Yue shook her head.

“Are you okay? You don’t have any internal injuries, do you?” Tang Wulin asked.

“I’m fine,” Gu Yue said, shaking her head again.

Tang Wulin wanted to ask more, but Gu Yue placed her hand in his and held it. He didn’t know why, but the sensation of her small, cold hands set his heart at ease. The two continued on in silence.

Meanwhile in the front passenger's seat, Zhen Hua was in a sour mood but didn’t say a word. Tang Wulin could feel his Uncle-Master’s anger in the stuffy air of the car, but they started moving before he could ask anything. The speed of the HAF car astonished Tang Wulin and drove every other thought out of his mind. It flew exceptionally fast, far faster than his mecha. Zhen Hua bypassed all of the checkpoints and flew straight to the campus gates before landing.

“Wulin, take this before you go to class.” Zhen Hua said. handing Tang Wulin a ring.

Tang Wulin found himself enchanted by the ring’s elegant jade-green body that was inset with a silver gem. The craftsmanship of it was art. A refreshing aura of vitality lingered around it as well. He tested it and found that it fit well on his left pinky finger. “Uncle-master, this is…”
