Chapter 273: Can't die, no need
Qu Tong returned to Roy Star once before the New Year.
After Old Man Yuan increased the dosage again and again, the spiritual sea has been mostly healed and it should be able to recover soon.
Qu Tong asked him if he had any plans to take in a disciple, but Old Man Yuan only wanted to focus on researching potions.
Qu Tong sighed. No wonder he couldn’t beat Lan Jianghong.
While others are pursuing fame and fortune and making great success outside, Old Man Yuan is still foolishly working hard alone in the laboratory, even cleaning the instruments and using the medicinal materials himself.
Qu Tong only found out later that Old Man Yuan didn't know who destroyed his spiritual sea, he just drank something he shouldn't have drunk at the banquet.
He also suspected Lan Jianghong, but he had not found any evidence over the years.
The seven-leaf heart was in bloom, and she came back specially to pick them.
The flowering period of seven-leaf heart is very short, only three days.
Qu Tong only stayed on Loy Star for one day before rushing back to the capital star.
Two days before the New Year, Xu An and Fei Wenxing came back for a rare occasion. The first thing they did was to make an appointment to go to Zuixinghe for a big dinner.
Rong Yueqing and Song Ke didn't come.
Rong Yueqing still has no news about Rong Chengjue, and Song Ke has a family banquet to attend.
Zuixinghe has added seafood barbecue because of their last live broadcast, but the daily limit is only 20 servings.
Since they had made an appointment in advance, I naturally left a copy for them.
Xu An and the other three became darker to varying degrees, and among them, Qu Tong stood out with his glowing whiteness.
Fei Wenxing and the other man ate with relish, just like they were refugees.
When they had almost finished eating, the two of them began to condemn their respective elder brothers at the same time.
Later, they made an appointment to go to the underground mecha field to compete, and Qu Tong was also dragged to participate. The result, of course, was that everyone lost 20,000 star coins to Qu Tong.
"It's not fair. Sister Tong has the worst physique, and I trained so hard, but I still lost." Fei Wenxing lay on the edge of the ring and beat his chest and stamped his feet.
Qu Tong returned He Zhou's 20,000 star coins to him, but He Zhou refused to accept them. He smiled and said, "Captain, I accept the loss. You don't need to take special care of me."
Qu Tong glanced at He Zhou and didn't insist on giving it to him.
He Zhou still calls Qu Tong the captain as he did in the military league. He has always been the most inconspicuous one in the small team, but he is also growing quietly and tenaciously.
Xu An and He Zhou were going to repair and maintain their mechas, and Qu Tong went with them. However, she didn't need to maintain her mechas as she didn't use them frequently.
When we got back, it was already evening.
It started snowing again. Qu Tong didn't ask anyone to pick him up, but called a hovercraft himself.
However, she didn't remember seeing such a large area of ruins on the way home. If she remembered correctly, this was an area of uninhabited old houses in the old city.
The hover car cannot fly high and can only go around.
As soon as I went around to the alley at the back, I sensed an unusual smell in the air and extremely disordered mental power.
There are people rioting around here!
No wonder this place is in such a mess.
Qu Tong didn't want to take a detour, so he simply got off the hovercraft and ended his journey. Otherwise, he would have to pay triple compensation for damaging public facilities.
After walking forward for a distance, I saw a person lying on the snow.
Qu Tong didn't expect to see Rong Chengjue again under such circumstances.
His long golden hair was stained with blood, and the blood on his body was blurred by the snowflakes. He was wearing a thin, torn windbreaker and curled up on the ground in a mess. His manic mental power was still spreading around, trying to destroy something.
His breathing was weak, he was holding a handful of snow in his hands, his knuckles were white, he was trembling, and a trail of blood was left on the ground.
Rong Chengjue's consciousness had begun to disintegrate at this moment, and he was left with only a powerless desire to destroy, which made him feel a little crazy.
Cold, chilling to the bone.
He might not survive this winter.
I feel a little unwilling.
More than a little.
Very unwilling!
His spiritual sea was manic and fiery, but his body was cold, his blood was cold, and even the air was cold.
He couldn't even tell where he was lying, in the dark dungeon of the palace, or in the sticky blood of the wild star beast...
Qu Tong walked up to Rong Chengjue, but the person on the ground had obviously fainted and it was impossible for him to find her.
The manic mental force around him could not move him at all.
Why does he look so miserable every time I see him?
Rong Chengjue was eroded by boundless pain and darkness, and suddenly he felt a hint of warmth on the back of his hand, and a coolness flowed into his blood, but it was a completely different feeling from the cold, which made him conscious for a moment.
Sensing that the warmth was leaving him, Rong Chengjue subconsciously reached out to grab it, but caught nothing.
A cold and familiar voice came into my ears.
"Rong Chengjue, it's snowing. It's New Year's Day. It's time to go home."
Rong Chengjue raised his dirty head and stared blankly at Qingjue's figure in front of him, as if he was looking up at a god.
The gods seemed to be laughing, pitying, and mocking.
My vision is a little blurry and I can't see clearly.
Seeing that Rong Chengjue had woken up, Qu Tong placed a potion in front of him and left without saying anything.
Only when the figure disappeared did Rong Chengjue retract his gaze, pick up the potion on the ground, and sit up against the wall.
The medicine is crystal white with a starry glow, and is packaged in an ordinary glass test tube. It does not look expensive at all, but it is a treasure that everyone is eager to get even if they spend tens of millions of dollars.
Rong Chengjue drank the potion and slowly waited for his spiritual sea to calm down in the snowy night.
The snow fell on my face, bringing a slight chill, but not as cold as before.
He had consumed too many empty crystals and semi-finished potions, so it was a miracle that he survived. Although his strength was forcibly increased to SSS level in desperate situations, his mental turmoil was more violent, longer-lasting, and more frequent than that of ordinary people, and he needed more potions.
This is also one of the reasons why he came to the Canaan Empire.
"Brother!" Rong Yueqing's call rang out outside the alley.
Rong Chengjue didn't have the energy to respond and could only wait for her to come to him.
After a while, Rong Yueqing found Rong Chengjue, put a mink cloak on Rong Chengjue, and helped him get on the hovercraft.
"Brother, are you okay?" Rong Yueqing looked at Rong Chengjue covered in blood helplessly. Although it was not the first time she had seen it, she was still very worried.
Rong Chengjue's eyes were silent, and he still did not answer.
Rong Yueqing stuffed a hot water bottle into her mink coat and said, "Sister Princess said you were almost frozen to death."
Rong Chengjue looked up at Rong Yueqing, picked up the hot water bag, and threw out the hovercraft.
"Brother, what are you doing!"
Rong Yueqing was angry and glared at Rong Chengjue with puffed cheeks.
"No need." Rong Chengjue said coldly.
Oh, I can’t die, I don’t need it, and I don’t have what I want.
Fortunately, Rong Yueqing had a good temper and took into consideration that Rong Chengjue was injured, so she did not throw him off the hovercraft.
When Qu Tong returned home, he saw Butler Chi pacing around the gate of the manor, and he had trampled out a large space on the ground.
As soon as he saw Qu Tong, he came over and said, "Oh my lady, why did you come back by yourself? Is your computer out of battery? I called you but no one answered."
"If you don't come back, I'm going to send everyone out to look for you."
