Chapter 891: Chapter 692: Return and Preparation
Ruan Ruan transformed into the Golden Winged Thunder Peng, with Yang Aoshan and Yue Bi sitting on its back.
Yue Bi furrowed his brow and asked solemnly, "Still canāt sense Su Envoy?"
"No... Master, Master has disappeared..."
Ruan Ruan, in the form of the Thunder Roc, had tears welling up in her eyes, biting her lip, anxiously searching ahead at the fastest speed.
Transferring Su Yuan out of Rashamon Academy in broad daylight.
Such a premeditated, targeted attack, how could Ruan Ruan not be anxious?
Yang Aoshan was also very worried, with a fine layer of sweat on her forehead and cheeks, feeling suffocated and uneasy in her chest.
She could only unconsciously clutch her chest tightly with her right hand, almost tearing her white shirt.
But Yang Aoshan knew that at this moment, the most worried one was Ruan Ruan, and she couldnāt pressure her further.
At this moment, not only here, Ruan Ruan had sent all her clones.
Moreover, Rashamon Academy, having learned the situation from Yue Bi, in light of Su Yuanās status as a Sky Patrol Officer Envoy, immediately sent a Burning Sun Level Teacher and contacted Rashamon Cityās City Guard, deploying several teams to search.
However, even so, there was still no news up to now.
"Hmm?" At this moment, Ruan Ruanās body trembled.
Yang Aoshan, who had been tense all along, quickly asked, "Whatās wrong, Ruan Ruan, is there news of Su Yuan?"
"Yes! Iāve sensed the Master!"
Ruan Ruan responded both joyfully and urgently, immediately putting all her effort into flapping the Thunder Rocās wings to transform into lightning, rushing toward a certain direction!
Although she sensed Su Yuan, Ruan Ruan could feel that Su Yuan was very weak at the moment!
Yue Bi also became alert, ready for battle at any time.
After Ruan Ruan sped forward with the two for a while, suddenly there was a flash of silver light ahead, and a familiar figure appeared.
Silver hair and silver eyes, pale complexion, looking quite weak, it was Su Yuan!
"Master?!..."
Ruan Ruan cried out in surprise and quickly returned to her original Slime form, afraid that in Thunder Roc form she might knock Su Yuan away.
And Su Yuan chuckled softly, opened his arms and hugged Ruan Ruan.
"Iām fine." He gently rubbed Ruan Ruanās head, soothing her in a low voice.
"Waa!... Master!..."
Feeling the warmth and familiar aura atop her head, all the worries in Ruan Ruanās heart burst out, her big watery eyes streaming like small rivers, soaking Su Yuanās chest not long after.
Su Yuan comforted Ruan Ruan while looking up at Yang Aoshan, who was clenching her fists and whose eyes were slightly red.
"Su Yuan, are you... okay?"š»š³š¦š¦šøāÆš·šÆš°š£āÆš.š¤šš®
Seeing Su Yuanās weak and disheveled appearance, Yang Aoshan clearly knew Su Yuan had gone through a battle.
Despite being very worried inside, her words turned into this ordinary sentence.
"Iām fine." Su Yuan smiled broadly, "Not gonna die."
"Donāt say such things!"
Hearing Su Yuan mention "die", Yang Aoshan involuntarily scolded, but she quickly realized it was inappropriate, and though she wanted to explain, couldnāt find the words, causing her face to flush slightly.
Fortunately, at this moment, Yue Bi stepped forward, cautiously scanning Su Yuanās back, asking, "Su Envoy, what exactly happened? It seems it wasnāt targeting Master Yang, but rather you."
Su Yuan nodded, "Indeed, they were targeting me; there were three Full Moon Masters from Qiguang, and Iāve killed them all."
"Three Full Moon Level..." Yue Bi pondered, then sighed in relief, "To make such arrangements, they must have come from experts. Did they leave any identity tokens?"
"Yes."
Su Yuan presented the identity tokens obtained from the three moon-shaped rings to Yue Bi for inspection.
Though they attempted to assassinate him, Layton and the others, as Holy Temple Moon Knights infiltrating Huo Luo Countryās sphere of influence, was no trivial matter.
To prevent them from having further arrangements in this area, it was necessary to inform Huo Luo Country.
Yue Bi examined the identity tokens of the three men carefully.
But as his gaze fell onto the uppermost identity token, Yue Bi was momentarily stunned, then his pupils visibly enlarged rapidly.
"This is... Gareth of the Nightmare Purple Moon from Qiguang Holy Hall?!"
"Thatās right." Su Yuan wiped the tears from the little Slime in his arms and nodded slightly.
But seeing Yue Biās big reaction, Yang Aoshan couldnāt help but lean in to take a look.
"Major General Yue, is this person... formidable?"
"Hiss..."
Yue Bi snapped back at Yang Aoshanās query, inhaled sharply, then nodded vigorously, trying to remain calm.
"Very formidable."
"Then... compared with you, Major General?"
"... More formidable than me."
Yue Biās voice trembled slightly, his heart churned like waves, unable to calm down!
Much more than formidable?
The strength of the Moon Knights, the southern and northern confrontation lasting these few days, who doesnāt know?
Every time a Moon Knight appeared, casualties would be heavy, requiring two or three Major Generals to lead forces to confront!
And according to the latest military communications, wasnāt this Nightmare Purple Moon assassinating a Great Flameās Xuanwu Upper Moon and a Snow Mink Guard Major General in the Eastern Battle Zone just recently?
How did he suddenly appear here, and still be killed by Su Yuan!
Yue Bi realized that his understanding of Su Yuan seemed inadequate, not merely what Brother Huang had mentioned.
How could a target warranting the Nightmare Purple Moonās personal assassination be simple?
Thinking this, Yue Bi casually flipped to the next page and was immediately stunned.
Yang Aoshan exclaimed, "Major General Yue?"
Yue Bi didnāt respond to Yang Aoshan, absently swallowed his saliva, and quickly turned to the last page.
Upon seeing Laytonās information, Yue Biās pupils contracted, his mind buzzing as if he were dreaming.
Yang Aoshan noticed something wrong with Yue Bi and quickly said, "Major General Yue!"
But Yue Bi gazed blankly at the photos, unable to snap out of it, even doubting if he was dreaming.
Nightmare Purple Moon Gareth, Crimson Moon Caroline, and the chief of Qiguang Holy Hallāthe Yellow Moon Layton!
Were these three here to ambush an Envoy who wasnāt even a Moon Lord?
And... all three of them were counter-killed?
Damn! Is this world f*cking crazy?!
Su Yuan finally calmed down Ruan Ruan and looked up at Yue Bi.
"Major General Yue, since these three broke through to here, there are likely further setups along the way, I request Major General Yue to report upwards and conduct a thorough check."
Yue Bi looked at Su Yuan in front of him, opened his mouth to speak, yet nothing came out.
In that instant, Yue Bi felt as if the other was standing at an immeasurably distant place, becoming unreachable.
After some time, Yue Bi finally steadied his heart and quickly responded, "Okay... okay!"
For safety, Yue Bi immediately fired the pre-prepared signal flare, requesting support.
Not long after, a Burning Sun Expert from Rashamon City came to cover and escorted Su Yuan and the others back to Rashamon City.
Upon learning the details from Su Yuanās mouth, even the City Lord of Rashamon City and the captain of the City Guard were shocked.
They promptly transmitted the message back to the Great Flame via emergency communication.
The Great Flame responded directly, sending an Imperial Envoy expert to liaise with Su Yuan and Yang Aoshan!
Many days later, Su Yuan and the others returned to the Capitol City.
Before Su Yuanās arrival, within a few days, the matter of the "March Killing Trap" outside Rashamon City had become known to all, shaking everyone from top to bottom in the Yan Court!
Su Yuan, after single-handedly counter-killing three Moon Knights including the chief, his reputation spread throughout the Great Flame, across the Central Five Domains, through Black Snow Huo Luo... even reaching the North!
After all, the explosive deaths of three Moon Knights were something that the Holy Temple simply couldnāt cover up!
But in the stormās eye, after Su Yuan met with the Vermilion Bird Throne, he quietly returned to the Qingming Realm.
Inside the Qingming Realm, Yang Aoshan hadnāt left yet, chatting with Yang Yifeng, who had woken from slumber.
Both being academy teachers, Yang Aoshan was conveniently seeking advice on many matters.
Yang Yifeng was also in high spirits, not to mention, Su Yuanās Qingming Realm was far livelier than the dark dungeon-like barrier under the Book Tower.
Even if he didnāt eventually recover his Origin, peacefully dying here would be far better than dying like a mouse in the dark under the Book Tower.
"Teacher, Teacher Yang." Su Yuan approached, greeting them.
Yang Aoshan said, "Just call me Aoshan."
"Uh..."
Yang Yifengās eyes glanced over the two, then chuckled, "Yes, Su Yuan, calling young Yang āTeacher Yangā would be redundant with my title."
Su Yuan couldnāt help but laugh at that.
Seeing Yang Yifeng seemingly return to his lively, spirited former self, Su Yuan was very pleased and said according to advice, "Alright, Aoshan."
Yang Aoshan nodded slightly, "Mm~"
Yang Yifeng, satisfied, stroked his beard and then asked seriously, "The Sun Spirit Pill, did you get it?"
"Of course!"
Su Yuan flipped his hand to produce a box, opened it, revealing the elixir with golden Sun Corona patternsāthe Sun Corona Pill.
And not just one, but two!
Yang Yifengās eyes lit up, "There are two?"
Su Yuan smiled, "These were just given to me by Fang Yu, saying that for escorting... Aoshan back and vanquishing the three Moon Knights, my contributions were significant."
"Good!" Yang Yifeng nodded heavily, looking at Su Yuan, "So what do you plan to do next?"
"This battle with the three Moon Knights yielded much for me, and the persistent bottleneck seems to have loosened somewhat.
Coupled with these two Sun Spirit Pills, everything is ready; thereās no reason to delay anymore..."
Su Yuanās eyes focused as he continued, "I plan to start seclusion immediately, digest the gains from this battle, and then break through to Burning Sun!"
Yang Aoshan was shocked in her heart, wide-eyed at Su Yuanās words.
She couldnāt quite grasp what Layton and the three Moon Knights represented.
But what it meant for Su Yuan to break through to Burning Sun... Yang Aoshan knew very well!
This young man, three or four years younger than herself, was actually preparing to break through to Burning Sun?
Yang Yifeng, looking at Su Yuanās confident and vigorous appearance, felt both emotion and comfort.
Patting Su Yuanās shoulder, Yang Yifeng said, "Good! Go for it, Su Yuan!"
Su Yuan nodded, called over Ruan Ruan and Ashley to give them some instructions and to take care of the teacher.
After all, breaking through to Burning Sun would likely take quite some time.
After completing his instructions, Su Yuan bowed to Yang Yifeng, then looked up at the high Qingming Peak, taking a step and instantly teleporting up...
