207: Section 207
Chu Zhengxiong nodded: "It's out. Damn it, a 7-star Demon King, it's just one step away from the Star Shattering Realm!"
"If it weren't for that thing, we wouldn't have lost so many people..."
As soon as those words were spoken.
The expressions of the few people present changed as well.
No wonder the battlefield here had become so tragic.
So, the Demon King had already emerged? If it joined forces with the Blood Lord.
It would be enough to destroy every team of the Monster Hunting Bureau.
Fortunately, Celestial Master Mu Ru and the old man came to support us.
If those two weren't there, I'm afraid the entire Monster Hunting Bureau would have been wiped out.
Lin Yi quickly asked: "Big Brother Chu, where did they go?"
Chu Zhengxiong looked up at him.
"Don't worry about this, and don't get involved... Your future has only just begun. Besides, besides, this isn't something you can get involved in!"
"You just make sure you live well, and when you get to university in the future, train properly!"
"Everything else has nothing to do with you... Did you get that?"
Chu Zhengxiong stared at Lin Yi with bloodshot eyes.
It seemed that at that very moment, he saw through Lin Yi's thoughts.
The Battle of Wushan was indeed not something Lin Yi could participate in.
As for the people in the Monster Hunting Squad, even the interns like Qin Zhaoxue and Shen Yuze were already at the 4-star Realm.
Yet, Shen Yuze still died in battle here.
And then there were Zhan Kai, Sun Lang, and Yin Xiaoyu.
Which one of them wasn't battle-hardened? Which one of them wasn't experienced?
Didn't they all die tragically here just the same?
At this moment, the Monster Hunting Bureau had suffered heavy losses, with over half of the elites from each team lost.
The only good news was that Qin Zhaoxue and Mo Yanfeng were still alive.
The old man and Celestial Master Mu Ru were pursuing the Blood Lord and the Demon King, and their chances of winning were quite high.
The Demon King was only 7-star, enough to be crushed by Celestial Master Mu Ru.
And the Blood Lord's Realm was at most only 7-star.
He could also be crushed by the old man.
Slaying them was just a matter of time.
While they were talking, the sky had gradually brightened completely.
A gentle breeze blew, carrying the metallic scent of blood across the entire Wu Mountain.
Chu Zhengxiong finished his second cigarette and tried to stand up.
However, just as he refused everyone's help and had managed to stand halfway up by leaning on a tree.
His vision suddenly went black, and his weak body swayed a few times.
The 1.9-meter-tall man crashed to the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Yi, Yang Yong, and Captain Tang Zhan rushed over.
"Quick, save him..."
They shouted in panic, and not long after, they saw from the mountain.
Over a dozen people from the Martial Arts Police Station, along with a few doctors in white coats, ran over carrying a stretcher.
Everyone scrambled to lift the unconscious Chu Zhengxiong onto the stretcher.
And ran straight down the mountain...
"Lin Yi, you go back with Old Chu. Don't worry about things here; leave the rest to us!"
Arriving at the foot of the mountain.
Chu Zhengxiong was lifted into the ambulance.
Yang Yong turned back to say to Lin Yi.
At this moment, there was no point in Lin Yi staying here.
Chu Zhengxiong had already been found.
The others who were still alive had all gone to pursue the Blood Lord and the Demon King.
There were also people from the Martial Arts Police Station on the mountain, collecting bodies and handling the aftermath.
Instead of staying on the mountain, it was better for Lin Yi to leave with Chu Zhengxiong.
He nodded: "Coach, you all be careful!"
"Don't worry, we know what we're doing. If there's any situation with Old Chu, just give us a call!"
"Okay!"
Lin Yi didn't waste any more words.
He sat directly into the ambulance.
The doors closed, and it headed straight for the nearby Wu Mountain County.
Given Chu Zhengxiong's current condition, he needed immediate treatment.
The journey back to Xinghai City from here was too far, taking three or four hours to arrive.
It would be easy to miss the optimal time for Chu Zhengxiong's emergency treatment.
And it only took twenty minutes to get to the Wu Mountain County Hospital from here.
Therefore, the ambulance headed straight for the Wu Mountain County Hospital.
The medical staff on the ambulance busied themselves with giving Chu Zhengxiong simple treatment for his injuries.
And fed him a pill.
Lin Yi had seen that kind of pill before; there were identical pills in the medicine kit Tang Qinru had left for him.
The label attached to it said it was for treating injuries and had miraculous effects for stopping bleeding.
The woo-woo sounds kept lingering in his ears.
Lin Yi stared at Chu Zhengxiong lying on the stretcher.
The medical staff nearby weren't idle either, constantly helping him treat his injuries.
As it turned out, only about ten minutes passed.
When the ambulance just drove into the county town.
The originally unconscious Chu Zhengxiong suddenly opened his eyes again.
"Hoo..."
He exhaled a breath of stale air, giving the medical staff treating him a big fright.
"Big Brother Chu?" Lin Yi hurried forward to check.
"Where... am I?"
"In an ambulance, we're taking you to the hospital for treatment!"
"Oh, no wonder... I, right... I'm giving you a gift..."
"Huh?"
Lin Yi was stunned, looking at Chu Zhengxiong with a confused expression.
What time was it? In a life-and-death moment, he actually wanted to give him a gift?
Just when Lin Yi was full of worry.
Chu Zhengxiong lifted his hand and fumbled around his body, then his face lit up with joy: "It's... here, you take it yourself... A gift for your Martial Arts Exam... consider it, consider it compensation..."
Lin Yi quickly reached out and fumbled toward the place Chu Zhengxiong pointed.
Something round.
Lin Yi pulled it out of Chu Zhengxiong's pocket.
It turned out to be a bead the size of an egg.
It was colorful, and it felt warm in his hand.
"What is this?"
Lin Yi held the bead, feeling somewhat puzzled.
Chu Zhengxiong squeezed a faint smile onto his pale face.
"I don't know what it is... I picked it up on Wu Mountain. It looked quite pretty, so I thought I'd give it to you as a gift... It's fine, I've given it to you, just take it..."
Chu Zhengxiong smiled.
At this moment, he seemed to treat Lin Yi like a child.
And Lin Yi, holding this bead that looked like an egg, nodded repeatedly.
"Big Brother Chu, I really like it, thank you!"
Chu Zhengxiong waved his hand weakly: "So, can I... smoke a cigarette?"
