Chapter 273: Chapter 219 In the Midst of Danger

...

Lord Rong Liang could understand if this nameless expert was concealing their identity, but even a Holy Name Expert could not possibly disguise themselves as a woman. Rong Liang sighed deeply; he realized he would have to notify and assist them in capturing Li Fen. He picked up a blank Memory Stone and placed it against his forehead.

In his mind, all the knowledge he possessed about "Li Fen" transformed into a silver mist, then left his forehead and floated into the unremarkable black Memory Stone in his hand.

After finishing, Rong Liang handed the stone to seven Crusader soldiers.

"Attend to me!" Lord Rong Liang shouted. Moments later, a servant opened the door to his office.

"What does milord request?" The servant glanced at the seven men dressed in black and asked. Although the servants knew nothing, they could still sense their master’s humility toward these individuals, and the sight of their engraved black cloaks stirred a deep fear within their hearts.

"Prepare a remote courtyard for these esteemed experts and provide each of them with a city insignia," Rong Liang spoke wearily, then bowed once more towards the honored experts.

Once the Crusaders were situated in the courtyard, one of the experts began moving around, casting spells and inscribing runes around the perimeter while another fused the Memory Stone provided by Lord Rong Liang.

When he finished absorbing the information from the Memory Stone, he displayed no emotion akin to a Crusader’s demeanor but instead made several hand gestures. A shadow detached itself from his black cloak and morphed into a small black bird.

This bird was unlike any other. It had no eyes, nor did it emit any sound. It was nothing more than a shadow. Yet, the shadow bird perched on the Crusader’s shoulder.

Slowly, the shadow opened its mouth. The Crusader placed the Memory Stone into it, and it disappeared inside the bird. In an instant, the shadow ascended into the sky, flying toward the distant icy castle of Beast Mountain.

As Yan Xiaobao rushed toward Gao Yan on the stage, his beautiful azure eyes turned as cold as a frozen sea while blood seeped from his abdomen.

Just a few minutes earlier, the first match of the finals had already begun. Gao Yan had leapt onto the now blood-soaked stage, brimming with vigor.

Gao Yan’s opponent was Li Cheng, a cultivator ranked as a nine-star second-tier disciple. Every spectator hoped this battle would become the most thrilling and intense performance among all the quarterfinals. However, it ended in mere minutes.

"Medic!" someone finally screamed, breaking out of their daze. The referee’s face was pale, with green spots appearing on his hands. This man was a cultivator ranked at the Master level with an affinity for the wood element.

However, this Master was not specialized in human treatment, so he could not perform any major restoration. Nonetheless, he still managed to stop the bleeding as friends and mentors rushed onto the stage.

The Rong twins were pale. When their eyes fixed on the pool of blood, all the color drained from their faces. Although Gao Yan was no longer bleeding, it was clear he had lost a substantial amount of blood. His life was in grave danger.

As the Rong twins focused on Gao Yan, Yan Xiaobao watched the smug Li Cheng, narrowing his eyes. When he scanned the bustling stage, his sharp eyes grew wide with alertness, but every time his gaze passed over the now-unconscious Gao Yan, a certain contempt and scorn flickered in them.

From the beginning of the fight to its conclusion, Li Cheng had used only one attack. This attack appeared to be a medium-tier Master-level skill. While it wasn’t as rare as a high-level skill, it was undoubtedly formidable.

This particular martial arts technique created a Qi Whip. The whip was as agile as any sword. The main issue was that, while the attack was fierce and sharp, if the opponent used their Qi ward defensively, it would quickly lose efficacy.

This drawback led Li Cheng to go all out immediately, striking deep into Gao Yan’s abdomen and causing severe injury.

The medics had now arrived. As one focused on treating the injury, the others carefully moved the injured Gao Yan onto a stretcher; afterward, they rushed toward the temporary infirmary tent.

"What do you think?" Deng Wu asked Yan Xiaobao in a low voice. Evidently, while the Rong twins were consumed by sorrow and worry, Deng Wu and Yan Xiaobao, together with Ma Kong, were analyzing the situation.

Once Yan Xiaobao saw the injury, he sent Ma Kong to deliver a message to Lord Rong Liang. The contents of the message included a video recording. Yan Xiaobao chose to report to Lord Rong Liang because the mayor had personally sponsored Gao Yan. Whether he survived remained an open question, and informing his parents would undoubtedly fall to the lord.

"He could have won without causing such a grievous injury," Yan Xiaobao murmured as he continued to look at the grinning Li Cheng, as though the man had done nothing wrong.

"Let’s hope I am his next opponent," Yan Xiaobao said sinisterly, his eyes gleaming with a cold light. "I would love to repay him for his gratitude toward Gao Yan."

With these words, Yan Xiaobao turned and walked briskly toward the infirmary, with Deng Wu following close behind.

"He will survive," a medic said while inspecting Gao Yan’s abdominal wound. "His Dantian is destroyed, but he can live a crippled life," the medic continued coldly as she swiftly withdrew her hands from the wound, halting her healing and allowing the blood to begin flowing again.
