Chapter 1022 - 1025: Su Qiao's Return
"Shouldn't we leave more people here at the villa?" Tank expressed concern before leaving."No worries, it's enough with just me here. My main concern is those outside. These are three Healing Holy Medicines. As long as there's still a breath left, taking them will immediately heal any injuries. Keep them safe, and be careful!"
Yun Hao took a small porcelain bottle from his chest, placed it in Tank's hand, and solemnly advised.
"You guys keep these elixirs. I won't need them!" Tank said, wanting to return the Healing Medicine after hearing how effective it was.
Having this Healing Holy Medicine was equivalent to having an extra life, enough to save one during critical moments. However, Tank didn't want it at all because he knew that Yun Hao and the others needed it more. Even if someone was sent for an assassination, the main force would definitely be deployed here!
"Just take it. I hope you won't need it, so you can return it to me when you come back!" Yun Hao glared and pushed the elixir back again!
"Return it? Wishful thinking. Once it's in my hands, it's mine!" Tank didn't insist any further. He knew Yun Hao well; once a decision was made, it was hard for anyone to change it. So he playfully put away the Healing Medicine.
After discussing potential incidents, they started deploying people before parting ways. Tank took the people abroad, Cold Face went to prepare some potions for Yun Hao, and Kongkong moved into the villa at the front!
After consulting with Yun Hao, Kongkong brought Zhao Lin over, and they moved into the villa together, enjoying their cozy days as a couple.
Yun Hao spent his time either accompanying Chu Yan and Zhao Shishi or cultivating to strive for an early breakthrough to the fourth transition realm. With that, confronting stronger adversaries like the deputy camp leader of the North American Soul Refining Training Camp, or those like the old monster of the Situ Family, Situ Lei, could ensure he stands undefeated, even possibly defeating them!
Through these battles, Yun Hao had gained a deep understanding of his strength. He could defeat late-stage or peak sixth-grade masters but struggled against seventh-grade experts!
Therefore, Yun Hao was confident that if he could break through to the fourth transition realm, he could at least ensure not being defeated, even if unable to defeat someone like Situ Lei!
Thus, time swiftly passed by five days. That evening, Chu Yan and Zhao Shishi prepared a meal after learning and awaited Yun Hao's emergence from his room!
Suddenly, two masked individuals dressed in black appeared outside. They walked with a stumble, and upon reaching the door, they stumbled in, clearly suffering from injuries!
"Sister Yan, Sister Shishi, it's me, Qiao..." One with a mask adorned with starlight and a white feather at the edge weakly announced to the stunned women before fainting.
Qiao?
Su Qiao!
Chu Yan instantly recognized, and hurriedly, along with Zhao Shishi, supported Su Qiao and the other person into a room, then rushed upstairs to call Yun Hao!
The moment Chu Yan ascended to the second floor, she felt an intense pressure emanating from Yun Hao's room, forcing her to retreat and stand at the stairs.
The pressure was so strong that even Chu Yan, a sixth-grade martial artist, dared not approach and could only hide at the stairs.
Yet Chu Yan wasn't panicked, for she could sense that the pressure belonged to Yun Hao.
After about a minute, the terrifying pressure gradually dissipated. Just as Chu Yan wanted to move, Yun Hao had already emerged from the room.
Facing the approaching Yun Hao, Chu Yan inexplicably felt a surreal sensation, as if Yun Hao before her was an ethereal existence, yet when he grasped her hand, it felt just as usual!
"Honey, Qiao is back, and there's another woman with her, but both are injured!" Chu Yan didn't dwell on it and told Yun Hao about Su Qiao's return.
"Let's check on them!" Yun Hao felt anxious upon hearing of Qiao's injury, rushing to Su Qiao's room right away!
By this time, Cold Face had also arrived. These past few days, no matter any commotions nearby, they'd be alerted instantly to prevent untimely responses in emergencies!
"Cold Face, check if Qiao's injuries are severe?" Yun Hao worriedly asked Cold Face, looking at the pale and frowning Su Qiao on the bed.
"It's nothing serious, just extreme fatigue. A pill and some rest will suffice. She must've been through grueling escape days, likely without rest, food, or drink, constantly on edge. Arriving here safely allowed her a momentary relaxation, leading to her fainting!"
Cold Face checked her condition, administered a pill, then rose to convey his findings to Yun Hao.
"Phew, that's a relief!" Yun Hao exhaled with relief upon hearing Su Qiao wasn't in danger. Suddenly remembering the other room had someone else, he spoke.
"Right, another person is in that room. Please, check on her too!"
Entering another room, a young yet attractive woman lay on the bed, exuding mature charm, slightly voluptuous, with an exquisitely pale little face. Her jade hands clenched lightly as if holding something vital, her brows tightly knitted!
"Who is she…" Cold Face queried Yun Hao with some confusion.
Hearing Cold Face question, Yun Hao was equally puzzled, having no clue.
"She came with Qiao!" Zhao Shishi responded seeing Yun Hao's confusion.
Yun Hao subconsciously furrowed his brow, wondering if she indeed came with Qiao. Could it be?
No way, if so, she was too young, wouldn't that make her a legendary ageless being?
"Just check on her, she might be Qiao's friend!" Yun Hao suggested to Cold Face before leaving the room with Zhao Shishi, not to disturb Cold Face's treatment!
