Chapter 265: Resurrection
Translator: OneshotwonderEditor: Hitesh_
Since Wang Tong's physical strength had reached that of an Einherjar, his body could output an incredible amount of GN. However, his old sea of consciousness was not strong enough to withstand the strain of discharging such a significant amount of GN force, and would eventually collapse under such weight. However, his new sea of consciousness had turned the situation around.
Wang Tong realized that he had been given a second life. Due to massive consumption of power, Goldie was still in slumber, and Mr. Wannabe seemed to have sustained heavy losses in his soul energy as well. But Mr. Wannabe still guided Wang Tong to complete his first round of the tactics using the new soul energy.
The room was messy; random object were scattered around the floor and on the bed. Wang Tong conceded that he had underestimated Li Ruoer's power, and felt pity for her because she wouldn't be able to level up in her cultivation until she had regained that lost soul energy.
Looking at the unconscious girl that had accidentally given him the second life, Wang Tong no longer felt angry. He saved her life once, and now, her debt was paid.
Wang Tong wanted to walk away then and there, but the joy of regaining his power made him walk to Li Ruoer and wake her up.
Li Ruoer slowly opened her eyes and saw Wang Tong's face right in front of her. She yanked her arm to slap him, but Wang Tong stopped her hand. ”Save it. You almost went into derangement earlier. Karma kills you know; I would consider being a better person from now on if I were you.”
Li Ruoer's mouth twitched, conceding her defeat as she shouted, ”You b*stard! Finish me off!”
Li Ruoer closed her eyes but held her indignant expression. She had lost control of her power and wasted too much soul energy. She would need at least a couple of days to recover from this incidence. Should Wang Tong have touched her on any other day, she would already have his arm chopped off.
Wang Tong picked Li Ruoer up and laid her down on a sofa, ”I don't want to harm you, and neither do I expect to become friends with you. Let's just call it off for now.”
Wang Tong turned back and walked away.
”Wait! You have recovered your soul energy?” Li Ruoer asked incredulously.
”Thanks to you, yes.” Wang Tong turned around and cracked a smile.
Wang Tong could see a mixture of feelings inside of Li Ruoer through her eyes. He held her emotional gaze for a while and decided to leave the room. The longer he stayed here, the more trouble he would be in.
”Hold on!” Li Ruoer shouted out to him, but Wang Tong didn't slow down. He had just recovered, and if he got caught by one of the House Li's warriors, he was as good as dead.
”Don't you want to know what happened to Ma Xiaoru?” As Soon as Li Ruoer finished her sentence, Wang Tong froze in his track.
Li Ruoer's lips curled up into a smirk seeing that Wang Tong had yet again risen to the bait.
”If you beg me, then I might tell you.”
Li Ruoer's words seemed to evoked reason in Wang Tong's frozen mind. He took a step towards the door.
”You a*shole Wang Tong! Ma Xiaoru was so nice to you, and you don't even care about her injury!”
”Now I know she is alive. Thanks again!”
Wang Tong almost lost his voice at the end of the sentence. He tried as much as he could to conceal his excitement, but his excited voice still caught Li Ruoer by surprise. He slowly walked out of the room, trying to look as normal as he could. Then, he shut the door close and collapsed against the wall.
”She is still alive! I knew it!”
