The two generals engaged in a fierce battle in the Old World.
But why?
"It is said that Bai Xie’s cell activity is incredibly strong, capable of instantly healing from any injuries, no matter how severe."
Gu Shen squinted his eyes, scrutinizing the man lying on the ground.
The mont the airship appeared.
The man on the ground also looked up, his eyes full of anxious pleading... Yet the battle was so intense, his injuries so severe, that he couldn’t even send out a spirit.
A re tens of miles felt like crossing between life and death.
"Rust Bone’s Sword Qi has annihilated his cell activity... At least ninety percent of it."
Gu Shen made his judgnt silently.
He calmly said, "Get him on the ship first, find out what happened."
...
...
The airship slowly sailed through the void.
The dying man was supported to sit in the ergency cabin, the North Continent airship generally equipped with a life pod for ergency treatnt, used for transporting nutrient fluids... But for Bai Xie, this level of ’healing’ is aningless.
His cell activity had been obliterated.
Even if the healing properties of this pod were multiplied ten thousand tis, it would not be able to cure his wounds.
However, keeping him breathing, making him feel a bit better, was doable.
Gu Shen did not allow the airship to continue towards Chanyi City because the greatest rescue on the return route, the general wielding Origin Power, had already been encountered in advance.
And the bad news was, there seed to be issues within the generals.
The airship hovered in this void, Gu Shen dispatched Fire Spirit to collect the residual source material in this void, quietly using Heart Flow Power in the Pure Land to deduce what happened here, though Rust Bone’s Sword Qi was too destructive, this void was shattered to pieces, the intelligence he could gather was really limited.
"Are you okay?"
Bai Xiu sat in front of the nutrient pod, seeing Bai Xie’s breathing beco even, it seed he had the energy to respond, quickly asked with concern.
"Should... not die."
Bai Xie weakly smiled.
"What happened?"
Gu Shen did not say any useless comforting words, he ca to the nutrient pod, directly pointed out the problem: "I’m very curious, did you have an encounter with Rust Bone General?"
"Yes..."
Bai Xie took a deep breath, he closed his eyes, as if recalling the previous scene.
After a long silence.
Bai Xie hoarsely laughed: "To be precise, it was Rust Bone who struck ."
"Rust Bone struck you?!" Gu Shen frowned.
"The intelligence from Chanyi City was sent to the Frontier, both Rust Bone and I arrived, boarded the airship... The mission’s target was originally to find Silver Fox." Bai Xie looked at Gu Shen, slowly said: "However, halfway through the airship journey, Rust Bone suddenly drew his sword at , his Sword Qi was very strong. I was forced to fight him, and as for the final result, you have already seen it."
Bai Xiu murmured: "You lost?"
"Sort of..."
Bai Xie sighed, shook his head: "I was pierced first, then my life origin suffered a serious injury, if I had been prepared, this battle wouldn’t have ended here."
Gu Shen asked: "Since Rust Bone won, why didn’t he kill you? Where did he go after defeating you?"
"This battle wasn’t just injured, he also paid a certain price, and perhaps didn’t kill because of our past camaraderie."
Bai Xie replied calmly: "As for where he went, I think he should have gone to the ’coordinates’ of Silver Fox."
"Impossible."
Gu Shen rejected this guess: "We are traveling with Mr. Silver Fox, just ca in a reverse direction."
"Nothing is impossible."
Bai Xie said calmly: "The Old World has too many doors, if he knew this path in advance, then he surely wouldn’t take the longest route."
Gu Shen asked: "You an... Rust Bone knew this route a long ti ago?"
"..."
After a long silence.
Bai Xie’s voice was hoarse: "I know you cannot accept it, but I’m sorry, so things have already happened. Rust Bone is a ’traitor’ to mankind, I suspect he is colluding with external races of the Old World, this source material fluctuation in Chanyi City is his plot. He planned everything, and my being heavily injured is a part of this plan."
Both Gu Shen and Bai Xiu fell silent upon hearing this.
The two exchanged a glance.
"I hope to return imdiately... We need to report what happened in the Old World to Her Majesty the Empress."
Bai Xie said: "Only the Divine Throne has the power to save everything."
"Return."
Gu Shen spoke.
"I will go and scout the outside environnt."
Bai Xiu, with a tacit understanding, stood up, left the airship, engulfed his body in Thunder Realm Walker field, ditated in the void of the Old World, using the field to protect the airship’s smooth progression.
After Bai Xiu left, the interior of the Source Energy Boat suddenly beca very quiet.
Gu Shen began to draw Array Patterns with his fingertips.
He made no attempt to cover his actions, Chi Huo’s flas poured out from his fingertips... This series of runes flowed before him and Bai Xie, transforming into a sturdy barrier, blocking all spirit and consciousness from outside, Bai Xie lying in the nutrient pod frowned, confusedly asked: "Gu Shen, what are you doing?"
"Setting up Array Patterns. To prevent our conversation from being overheard."
Gu Shen opened his mouth naturally, paused slightly, said: "Although... there’s only one person here."
