Chapter 613 Eerie Smile!
“…Alright, I understand.” Zhao Xuan immediately replied.
Method Yu nodded, not saying anything more, turned to the bedside, and with one arm, picked up the still unconscious Zhao Zinan, activating the Void Ring.
“Whoosh!”
A flash of light enveloped Method Yu and Zhao Zinan, and the two disappeared together.
…
South City Ecological Park, the deepest part.
Method Yu carried Zhao Zinan with one arm, opened the fence in front of the vegetable garden, and walked in.
Just like last time, as soon as Zhao Zinan entered the garden, the life energy within the entire garden surged dramatically!
Method Yu brought Zhao Zinan to the center of the garden.
This was the location of the Star Fruit, also the very center of the life source.
Method Yu placed Zhao Zinan face-up on this open space.
Normally, even though this place possessed strong life energy, relying on the body’s natural absorption would be extremely slow. It would require guidance to direct the life energy into the body for faster recovery.
But Zhao Zinan’s body maintained its consistent peculiarity.
Method Yu merely placed her on the ground, and immediately felt the life energy from the entire garden rushing into her body.
Zhao Zinan’s body was like a black hole, greedily absorbing the life force.
During this process, her previously pale skin gradually regained its color.
Her withered face also gradually radiated vitality.
Meanwhile, Method Yu once again opened his Eye of Insight to observe Zhao Zinan’s body.
Indeed, just like before, he couldn’t see anything.
These Eyes of Insight could see through everything, yet they couldn’t penetrate Zhao Zinan!
“If what He Chenchen said is true… the Demon Sect wants to take Zhao Zinan away to use her body to resurrect a thousand-year-old evil spirit…”
“But even I can’t see the mystical nature of her body, why is the Demon Sect so certain she’s the perfect vessel?”
Method Yu scratched his head, completely puzzled.
For him, there were many things he might not know, but if he wanted to understand, he could generally find answers.
But the Zhao Zinan before him left Method Yu completely baffled.
The uniqueness of her body was the first of its kind that Method Yu had seen in all his years.
As Method Yu pondered, Zhao Zinan, who was absorbing massive amounts of life energy, continued to improve.
About five minutes later, the long eyelashes on her eyelids trembled slightly.
Soon, she opened her eyes, revealing clear pupils.
Seeing Method Yu crouching in front of her, staring intently, Zhao Zinan was startled, thinking she had seen wrong, and rubbed her eyes.
After confirming she wasn’t mistaken, Zhao Zinan’s cheeks flushed like red apples, and she softly called out: “Method Yu…”
“How do you feel?” Method Yu asked.
Zhao Zinan slowly sat up, looked down at her body, and answered: “I… feel very good.”
Now, her mind was clear, and she felt full of energy.
This was in stark contrast to the past half month, when she had been groggy and unable to move every day.
“Method Yu, you saved me…” Zhao Zinan looked at Method Yu gratefully.
“No, you were just lucky. I happened to be fired today, and happened to meet your brother at the door, otherwise you would have died,” Method Yu said.
“But you still saved me,” Zhao Zinan said softly, leaning forward as if wanting to kowtow to Method Yu.
However, the back of her clothes had been torn open by Method Yu.
So when she bent forward, her clothes slipped forward.
Fortunately, the sleeves kept her from exposing more than her shoulders.
“Ah!”
Zhao Zinan let out a small cry, quickly holding her clothes in place.
She looked at Method Yu, her face as red as if blood might drip from it.
Method Yu stood up and said, “If you feel fine, I’ll take you home now.”
“…Mm.”
Zhao Zinan bit her pink lips, holding her clothes, and stood up.
Seeing her extremely embarrassed state, Method Yu took out a shirt he usually wore from his storage bag and handed it to her.
“Put this on.”
Zhao Zinan took the shirt and immediately put it on.
Finally, she breathed a sigh of relief, but the blush on her cheeks didn’t fade.
In all her life, this was the first time she had worn someone else’s clothes.
“Let’s go.”
Method Yu grabbed Zhao Zinan’s shoulder with his right hand, making her tremble.
Then, the Void Ring emitted light.
The two teleported away together.
…
Zhao family, Zhao Zinan’s detached villa.
“Xuan, have you lost your mind!? That person seriously injured Master He, and you want us to send Master He to the Martial Arts Association!? Isn’t this nonsense?” A middle-aged man with thinning hair shouted furiously.
His name was Zhao Zuyao, Zhao Xuan’s biological father.
“That’s right, Xuan, Master He saved Zinan just a while ago! How can we repay kindness with enmity?” The elegant lady beside him also looked displeased.
This was Zhao Xuan’s mother, Jiang Lan.
The couple had originally come to see Zhao Zinan one last time, but unexpectedly encountered this situation.
“Dad, Mom, listen to me, the reason Zinan had problems was because of this He Chenchen! He was the one who placed a curse on Zinan!” Zhao Xuan explained.
“Bullshit! If Master He wanted to kill Zinan, why would he bother with a curse? Couldn’t he have just not saved her that day, or acted directly? He could have!” Zhao Zuyao raged, “I think you just don’t use your brain! You believe whatever others tell you!”
“Xuan, you’re too confused, how could you help an outsider against our family’s benefactor!? Master He is so young, who knows what forces he has behind him… the consequences of offending him would be unimaginable!” Jiang Lan said.
Veins bulged on Zhao Xuan’s forehead.
He had just witnessed Method Yu and He Chenchen’s confrontation with his own eyes.
And He Chenchen had personally admitted that he wanted to kill Zhao Zinan.
But his parents before him just wouldn’t believe it!
“We must make amends now! First, send Master He for treatment…” Zhao Zuyao said.
“Treatment? I told you, he wants to kill Zinan!” Zhao Xuan couldn’t hold back anymore and shouted.
“Zhao Xuan, what kind of attitude is this! You know you’re wrong but won’t correct it?” Zhao Zuyao’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Zhao Xuan.
“Xuan, how can you shout at your father? Calm down right now!” Jiang Lan urged from the side.
Zhao Xuan breathed heavily but said nothing more.
He knew there was no point arguing with his parents now.
Once Method Yu returned with the healed Zhao Zinan, everything would be resolved.
Zhao Zuyao was about to say something when a servant ran in from outside.
“Master Zhao, Madam Jiang, the family head has returned!” the servant said excitedly.
Zhao Jidao was back?
Zhao Zuyao and Jiang Lan exchanged glances, their faces lighting up.
Zhao Zuyao glared at Zhao Xuan and said, “Do as I say! Otherwise, if this matter reaches your grandfather’s ears, you’ll be punished!”
With that, Zhao Zuyao and Jiang Lan left the villa to welcome Zhao Jidao.
Zhao Xuan watched his parents leave excitedly, his eyes filled with sorrow.
These parents had never cared about Zhao Zinan’s condition from beginning to end, as if they had already considered her dead.
This made Zhao Xuan feel heartbroken, knowing that Zhao Zinan had always been filial and never disobeyed her parents.
“Sigh…”
Zhao Xuan sighed, sat on the sofa, and waited for Method Yu’s return.
…
“Master!”
“Family Head!”
“Dad, you’re back…”
In the main hall, the core family members surrounded the just-returned Zhao Jidao like stars around the moon.
Zhao Jidao was the backbone of the Zhao family, and his safety represented the safety of the entire Zhao family.
Without Zhao Jidao, many of the Zhao family’s lucrative businesses would suffer.
“Dad, have some tea.” Zhao Zuyao held a freshly brewed cup of red tea with both hands and offered it to Zhao Jidao, who was sitting on the sofa.
Zhao Jidao smiled, accepted the tea from Zhao Zuyao, and took a sip.
“Dad, are you… alright? Did the North City Martial Arts Association do anything to you…” Zhao Zuyao asked cautiously.
His question was also what everyone in the Zhao family was concerned about.
For a moment, the entire hall fell silent, with everyone nervously looking at Zhao Jidao, waiting for an answer.
Zhao Jidao wore a somewhat strange smile on his face.
This kind of smile was rarely seen on the previous Zhao Jidao.
But about two months ago, Zhao Jidao suddenly started showing this smile frequently, which initially made many family members feel strange, but they had gradually gotten used to it.
