Chapter 652: Healing

At that moment, the woman in the light-yellow dress finally reacted. Even though the young man standing before her seemed to be severely injured, his combat strength was still far above theirs.

He could’ve even singlehandedly slaughtered everyone in sight if he so desired.

There was no reason to try pulling tricks on a strong expert at such a level.

He could kill them all if he wanted to!

This was the difference between their level of strength and true absolute strength!

The difference between the two was so big that they had no chances at fighting back!

Right now, she could only hope that Lu Xuan did not harbor any ill will toward them!

The woman in the light-yellow dress said, “Since you seem to possess no ill will toward us, you might as well go into the cabin and rest there. Although our ship is small, there is still room for you to rest and recuperate!”

Lu Xuan looked at the woman in the light-yellow dress with surprise. Upon sensing that something was wrong, she immediately changed her mind.

It was rare for her to have such resolve toward even men. That alone made her seem slightly more interesting than before!

However, Lu Xuan genuinely had no intention to do anything unnecessary to them.

Lu Xuan slowly said, “You are pretty bold. What’s your name?”

The woman in the light-yellow dress said, “My name is Xu Tianying of the Xu family in Tianhai City! May I ask how to address this senior?”

She immediately began referring to Lu Xuan as her senior, obviously in the hopes of getting closer to Lu Xuan.

“I am of the Lu family!” Lu Xuan was careful not to reveal his first name, instead only revealing his surname.

“So it’s Senior Lu!” Xu Tianying hurriedly said. She went through all the names she knew of in her mind. Obviously, this man was not among any of the experts in the Divine Transformation Realm that she knew.

Lu Xuan obviously looked disheveled and severely wounded, but he still possessed amazing strength. Even Elder Huang, who was the strongest person on their ship, had been defeated with one blow from Lu Xuan.

She simply did not dare to imagine how terrifying Lu Xuan’s combat strength would be when he was at his best.

Such a strong man could not be beaten. All anyone could do was worship him.

This was the rule of the world—the strong possessed all of the power, whereas the weak were merely their prey!

She didn’t know why or how Lu Xuan ended up so badly injured, and she didn’t dare to even ask!

Soon, a servant of the Xu family onboard led Lu Xuan into a room.

Lu Xuan scanned it with his divine mind to find no hidden traps in the room awaiting him. It was just an ordinary room.

Xu Tianying seemed very decisive. She did not give him any chances to continue attacking. If she did, he would’ve had to use up more of his strength.

It just so happened that he could cultivate here, but the only thing he needed right now was a place quiet enough to heal his wounds.

As long as Xu Tianying did not try pulling some kind of scheme on him, Lu Xuan wouldn’t mind paying her back for allowing him to rest. If Xu Tianying did not make any sneaky moves, Lu Xuan would not mind giving her some benefits in return. Given Lu Xuan’s current level of cultivation, even a little casual instruction from him would’ve been enough for her to use as long as she lived.

If she planned to try pulling any tricks on him, however, then Lu Xuan wouldn’t hesitate to fight back.

On the deck, Xu Tianying, Uncle Chang, and Elder Huang looked at each other. They waited until they could not feel Lu Xuan’s force anymore before finally breathing a sigh of relief.

Xu Tianying wore a slightly wry smile on her face. None of them could tell whether or not they were fortunate.

It was unfortunate that on the vast sea, they had run into an expert of this level. Fortunately, however, this expert seemed to be fairly reasonable. He was not like those evil people whom they feared would directly kill them and steal their ship.

The most fortunate part about this was that Lu Xuan was just temporarily borrowing their place to recover.

They have heard of things like this many times before. Some unfortunate people would run into wicked experts who wouldn’t hesitate to kill them, with a few of such people even becoming other experts’ pawns. The trio shuddered at the thought of all kinds of tragedies.

Following a brief pause, Uncle Chang said, “Miss, do you plan to let him stay on the ship like this?”

Xu Tianying sighed and said, “Is there anything else we can do? This Senior Lu is so strong that not even Elder Huang is a match for him. I’m afraid he was an expert in the Divine Transformation Realm before he got injured. How could we possibly refuse him?”

Elder Huang’s face turned a bit gloomy at this thought, but he also knew that he was only half a step away from entering the Divine Transformation Realm. However, fully entering the Divine Transformation Realm was very difficult. Even if nothing went wrong, he was still very unlikely to fully step into the Divine Transformation Realm in his current life.

Tianhai City’s status relied fully on whether or not an elder in the Divine Transformation Realm was in charge.

Suddenly, Elder Huang seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Xu Tianying and said, “Miss, are you thinking of…”

Xu Tianying nodded solemnly. “Right now, the family is at stake. We can’t put all our hopes into one person. I won’t give up as long as there is a glimmer of hope!”

Upon thinking of who Xu Tianying was referring to, Elder Huang couldn’t help but hesitate. To meet that person’s request, they went out to sea in search of the longevity grass. Even then, they did not dare to put all their hopes on that person.

Xu Tianying said, “It’s always good to have at least a little hope!”

Afterward, she ordered, “Uncle Chang, send out an order. Everyone must take good care of that Senior Lu and try their best to meet all his needs!”

Despite knowing that it was unsafe to do so, Uncle Chang said out of courtesy, “Yes, miss!”

However, the three of them were holding onto the last bit of hope, knowing that it was very slim.

They didn’t have any hope, nor did they have any other choice!

Because Lu Xuan was currently recovering from his injuries, he naturally didn’t know what was going on outside. Even so, he didn’t care about that at all!

After being badly injured by that far ancient species known as the Deep-sea Basilisk, there was no way for Lu Xuan to completely stabilize the injury even at his current level of cultivation.

This was because he was poisoned. Not only did the Deep-Sea Basilisk possess terrifying strength, but it also had shocking toxins.

Although the toxin hadn’t gone too far into Lu Xuan’s body, it was already causing major problems for him.

Even a little bit of poison from the Deep-sea Basilisk would’ve immediately killed a normal expert in the Divine Transformation Realm.

In contrast, Lu Xuan had forcefully kept himself alive by relying on both his born Taoism aptitude and the Taixu Origin Power.

Right now, he was trying to force the toxin out of his body. Assuming that this deadly toxin did not pose any significant enough problems, he could use the strength of his born Taoism aptitude to fully recover within just a few days as long as he forced the toxin out of his body.

In the small cabin, Lu Xuan kept running the Spiritual Aether in his body, gradually forcing the toxin out of his body. Black sweat slowly flowed out of his pores in the process.

Every drop shot out like a sharp arrow, falling to the floor and directly eroding small holes in it wherever they landed. Even though the floor was protected by the boundary, the drops still managed to pierce through it.

Before long, small potholes appeared on the floor.
