Chapter 2419 - 2420: Recovery

Chapter 2419: Chapter 2420: Recovery

Such a kindness, Liu Qinghan naturally cannot forget.

But the deceased has passed, and what Liu Qinghan can do is only give him a grand funeral or follow his last wishes to take good care of Xiao Ying.

This was entrusted to Liu Qinghan by Pan Yan before doing this, and Liu Qinghan would naturally not easily forget it.

Just thinking about how Xiao Ying cried uncontrollably upon seeing Pan Yan fall, Liu Qinghan couldn’t help but sigh softly.

Xiao Ying is an orphan, cared for by Pan Yan all these years, and it has been more than ten years. During this time, with Pan Yan’s care, Xiao Ying’s life was quite happy.

But now, with Pan Yan’s death, Xiao Ying, who had been following Pan Yan since childhood, lost her only relative, and her emotions would naturally be unstable.

"Find someone to take good care of Xiao Ying."

Liu Qinghan spoke again.

Given his status, it is naturally impossible for him to take care of Xiao Ying every day, and besides, there are too many matters in the sect that require his attention, leaving him unable to divide his time, so he can only entrust this matter to others.

"Yes, Sect Master."

The elders responded in agreement, as they were also very concerned about Xiao Ying.

...

The moon sets, the sun rises, and another new day arrives.

After the great battle, there’s not much difference between here and elsewhere. The restrictions that were originally etched into the ground have also been cleared away completely, as if they never appeared.

The sect disciples who were originally asleep last night only heard the massive sounds, but upon sensing a disturbance and getting dressed to go out, they could see nothing more.

Only a few knew about last night’s battle, like those concerned for Lin Chen’s safety such as Chen Jie, Sun Tianming, and others.

Lin Chen returned before dawn, but upon returning, he didn’t immediately recount the events to Sun Tianming and the others, instead he greeted them and went back to his room.

After a night of battle, although Lin Chen’s physical injuries had been largely healed, the Spiritual Energy within him was severely depleted.

This severe depletion left him extremely weak, which is why he didn’t linger there.

"It’s been several hours already, I wonder how he’s doing."

Sun Tianming and others outside seemed very anxious, frequently glancing into the room, their expressions showing some tension.

Although Chen Lin had repeatedly emphasized to them that Lin Chen’s injuries had been mostly healed by Liu Qinghan,

seeing Lin Chen’s forlorn expression upon his return last night, Sun Tianming and the others couldn’t help but worry.

After all, Lin Chen was covered in blood and his clothes were tattered. If it weren’t for his okay spirit, they might have thought Lin Chen had suffered severe injuries.

Even so, having witnessed the terrifying anomaly last night, their hearts were still slightly scared, naturally intensifying their concern for Lin Chen.

"Don’t worry, the injuries are mostly healed, it’s just that he overexerted himself yesterday leading to severe Spiritual Energy depletion, that’s why he hasn’t come out yet, probably because of this reason."

Chen Lin explained once more, feeling his throat dry, he took a light sip of Ming tea.

He didn’t know how many times he had said this throughout the night, but anyone could see the tension among them, and within a while, someone would ask again.

Though tired of repeating himself, Chen Lin continued to explain due to their concern for Lin Chen.

Finally, after an unknown number of inquiries, Lin Chen finally emerged from the room.

He looked rather peculiar due to his tattered clothes; the originally intact garment having been torn into strips during the battle.

As the morning breeze blew, the tattered strips fluttered, appearing very disheveled, in the hustle and bustle of the city, he might be mistaken for a beggar.

Especially with the dirt still unwashed from Lin Chen’s face, making him resemble one even more.

"Why? Why are you all staring at me like that?"

Lin Chen felt quite puzzled and asked them in return, blinking perplexedly.

"Look at yourself first, and tidy up a bit. Even if your body is fine, how you look can make them think otherwise."

Seeing Lin Chen, Chen Lin couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. Lin Chen’s spirit seemed very healthy, indicating good recovery, even a slight improvement, showing that power often grows from battles.

Upon Chen Lin’s words, Sun Tianming, Chen Jie, and others who had been continuously asking all looked slightly embarrassed.

And upon hearing Chen Lin’s remarks, Lin Chen couldn’t help but look himself over.

Wherever he glanced, he couldn’t find an intact part of his clothing, which had been torn into strips exposing his skin.

However, the exposed skin was equally filthy, covered in dust and grime, turning Lin Chen’s originally fair complexion into a grimy gray-black.

"Ahem, let me go and freshen up a bit first."

Seeing his appearance, Lin Chen understood their earlier gazes.

He coughed lightly to conceal his embarrassment, then greeted them briefly before sprinting away.

Given his current appearance, a good wash was necessary.

In a secluded place by a clear spring, rarely visited by others, Lin Chen washed and refreshed himself before heading to Chen Lin’s residence.

When he returned, Lin Chen was clean, no longer looked disheveled, and felt quite comfortable himself.

"The power is nearing breakthrough to Spirit Pill Level Five; time to break through the next meridian."

Lin Chen thought on the way back; the Cultivation Technique taught by Su Yan was quite special, allowing the unblocking of meridians within the body. As his realm increased, the number of open meridians would grow.

This in turn would speed up his cultivation progress, which was the uniqueness of the Cultivation Technique.
