Chapter 141: Sealing Pulse Arrow

  In the ancestral hall of the Hu family, three elderly men who were discussing something in secret in the council chamber saw Hu Gao being sent back covered in blood by Ao Xue and they couldn't believe their eyes. Who would have thought that participating in the War Institution's martial arts competition could injure him to such an extent? After all, Hu Gao was a warrior who had already broken through to the Unity Realm!

  The nine elders were the most hot-tempered, pointing at the article's nose and scolding, "You people in the war institute are all good-for-nothings! Yang Dingtian, that dead old ghost, can't even protect a junior, what kind of institute head is he? Truly, one generation is not as good as the next!"

  He rushed over, his breath still not steady, and was scolded like this. The school's defense in the martial arts competition was unfavorable, so they were also to blame for being scolded. However, it dragged the principal into trouble, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.

  "What? You're still not convinced? Even if it's Yang Dingtian in front of me, I'll scold him just the same!" The Ninth Elder didn't give face and continued to loudly berate with an imposing momentum.

  "Alright, we're all of the same age, why bother arguing with young people? Is it worth showing off one's seniority?" The Transmission Master couldn't bear to watch anymore. Now the key is how to treat Hu Gao, what's the point of entangling with a war institute's guard? These nine masters are indeed worried and confused.

  "Hu Gao's vital signs are still stable, no wonder he was chosen by the High Priest as a perfect vessel. He can survive such severe injuries, in my opinion, this kind of injury, even if the medical team comes, it will be futile like last time!" said Hu Hai Sheng, the Elder of Internal Affairs, after examining Hu Gao's injuries.

  "Come to think of it, after Hu Gao was severely injured last time, the one who awakened him seemed to be Qinglian from your Liqing Sect?" said Chuan Gong Lao suddenly.

  The nine elders were stunned, and if it weren't for Hu Feng's reminder, he almost forgot where Qinglian had gone. After the chaos of leaving Qing, he had sent people out of the city to search for her, but there was no news at all. If only she were here.

  Outside the ancestral hall, Yang Le and Yun Feng also rushed over at this time, their speed was only slightly slower than Wu Kong's flight. As soon as they arrived, they bumped into Hu Wu Shuang who happened to be returning to the ancestral hall.

  "Luo Luo, how did you end up here?" Hu Wu Shuang returned to the sect because she received a secret letter from her father while she was out training, this matter is very important and needs to be discussed with several elders immediately.

  "Unmatched?" Yang Le's face turned red, Hu Gao was seriously injured in the War Institute, she didn't expect Hu Wushuang to get the news and rush back so quickly, she really didn't know how to explain it.

  Hu Wushuang saw Yunfeng beside Yang Le and felt a bit strange. She remembered that this guy in white clothes should have been following Hu Gao before. Her intuition told her that there was something wrong with this, "What's going on?"

  Yun Feng saw Hu Wu Shuang and was stunned for a moment, unsure of what to say.

  Yang Le only then realized that Hu Wu Shuang still didn't know about Hu Gao's situation, thought for a moment and anyway it couldn't be hidden, so he said, "Hu Gao was just assassinated during the trial in the War Institute, his life or death is uncertain, I've already sent someone to send him back to your sect ahead of time."

  Was Hu Gao assassinated? Hu Wushuang thought she would be delighted to hear this news, but for some reason, she suddenly felt as if her mind had gone blank, with no emotions at all.

  "Wuduan, let's hurry up and take a look inside. My dad has gone to catch the murderer and should be over soon." Yang Le saw that Hu Wuduan seemed to have been scared silly, so he quickly pulled her hand and rushed into the ancestral hall.

  In the ancestral hall, the elderly men who were frowning and looking worried saw Hu Wushuang return, and their faces became even more clouded with worry. In a short while, it would be the day of her grand wedding with Hu Gao, but now that something had happened to him, how could they explain it?

  "What about Yinxue? Didn't Father send her to be by Hugao's side?" Hu Wushuang looked at Hugao, who was placed on a simple stretcher, with an incredulous expression.

  What kind of assassination did this guy encounter? There is not a single intact place on his body, and through the chest, there are still red arrow clusters inserted, which is the murderer's naked provocation to Ning City Hu family!

  "The young master is unaware, but a few days ago when you were out training, due to the tense battle at Qingyuan Mine, the clan leader had already dispatched Hu Yinxue to the front lines to direct the battle." The elderly steward Hu Haisheng could only step forward to explain.

  "Foolishness! Father has sent people away, don't you know how to secretly send more people to protect us? Don't you know the importance of our Guardian God to the Hu family?" Hu Wushuang suddenly let out a furious roar. Regardless of whether Hu Gao was the real successor or fake, this was an internal matter of the Hu family and would not tolerate outsiders bullying them like this. This was her most instinctive thought as the young master of the Hu family!

  Several elders looked at each other in dismay, the Ninth Elder had just been scolding the guards of the War Institute with great fanfare, but now he was suddenly subjected to the same treatment.

  "Big sister, you're here, I'll take my leave first." The article that had been standing by the side felt the awkward atmosphere in the hall and was unwilling to stay any longer. He would rather go out to catch the murderer than stay here for another moment.

  Yang Le nodded, as Hu Wusuo's best friend, it was the first time she saw her get so angry, but thinking about it, they were about to get married, and the groom was assassinated, which was unacceptable in both emotion and reason.

  "I said." Seeing this inexplicable scene, Yunfeng was somewhat speechless. "Can't you guys just stop for a moment? Compared to pushing the blame on each other after the fact, shouldn't the more important thing be how to treat Hu Gao's injury?"

  He walked quickly to Hu Gao's side, carefully sensed it, and found that this guy's breath was unusually stable, just like an ordinary person after falling asleep.

  Yang Le thought of his previous suspicion of Yun Feng and quickly asked Hu Wu Shuang in a low voice, "Who is this guy?"

  Hu Wushuang also calmed down at this time, "Looking at this outfit, it seems to be from the Yu Cheng Wu Xuan Sword Pavilion. He should be someone Hu Gao met in the Longjia Mountain Range and had previously come to the sect with him."

  "Isn't Wu Xujian Guan that group of swordsmen who are famous in Longhua Country for specializing in spiritual power?" Yang Le was quite knowledgeable.

  Hu Wu nodded slightly, "However, their inheritance is weak, in Longhua Country they can't be considered a first-rate power anymore."

  Yun Feng knew that Hu Gao had special abilities in the healing system when they were in the Dragon Slaying Mountains. It wasn't strange for such a situation to occur after being heavily injured. He pulled out the arrowheads stuck in Hu Gao's body, then took out the essence of the Black Fire Lotus from his spatial ring and applied it to Hu Gao's chest wound.

  When they were injured in the Longjia Mountains before, Hu Gao did just that.

  Yun Feng's bold action startled several elders, but only the Ninth Elder suddenly looked at Yun Feng's right hand with a surprised expression and snatched the broken arrow.

  "This is no ordinary arrow!"

  Hu Feng also quickly looked over, but didn't find anything special, so he took the arrow from Jiu Lao's hand. As soon as the arrow entered his hand, he immediately felt that something was off, "This... this is a Sealing Pulse Arrow!"

  "Sealing Pulse Arrow?" Hu Wushuang heard this term, subconsciously glanced at Yang Le and Yunfeng, using the unique hand gesture of the Hu family to indicate that there were outsiders present, and signaled the elders not to speak further.

  "What's that?" Yun Feng asked as he turned his head back.

  "A very vicious arrow that can cause the enemy to bleed profusely after being injured, this craftsmanship is only available in Yue City, it seems that someone from Lang's family has taken action." Hu Wushuang explained lightly.

  "But now it seems that Hu Gao's body has automatically stopped bleeding, and those sword wounds he originally got from the trial seem to be recovering at a visible speed!" Yun Feng tore open several parts of Hu Gao's tattered clothes and said carefully.

  "It seems that the Guardian Deity is helping it recover, but this will likely greatly consume the Guardian Deity's spiritual power. At this rate, when can the adults awaken?" The Elder of Internal Affairs sighed and said.

  Hu Wushuang didn't know the inside story of Hu Gao being confirmed as the successor, but there were outsiders present, so she didn't ask much.

  "The ancestral hall is not suitable for recuperation, I think it's better to send Hu Gao back to the Patriarch's house. Last time Hu Gao was injured, it was also the Patriarch who took him home for treatment." The Ninth Elder also found that Hu Gao's injuries were improving and suggested this.

  Hu Wushuang's face changed, she had just returned from her training and heard that Hu Gao had once stayed in her boudoir to recover from his injuries. At the time, she was furious, and now looking at Jiu Lao, they were all Qīng Chéng's kind, and they all looked so detestable!

  To say, this is already the third time that Hu Gao has fallen into a coma after arriving on Totem Continent.

  "Obis Laichi, who the hell chose someone as stupid as him? In my day, I wasn't so weak! It's really true that each generation is worse than the last!"

  In Hu Gao's mind, his fellow villager's voice echoed once again.

  Upon hearing this voice, Hu Gao's consciousness jolted and he immediately woke up.

  He had too many questions buried in his heart to ask this old fellow who had been hiding in his own mind, especially after experiencing the tomb of Yao, these questions were even more entangled in his mind and couldn't be shaken off.

  "Fellow countryman, is it true that there are many dimensions in this world? And they can even take cross-border actions? Will crossing borders cause chaos in time and space, and end up like your current situation?"

  Questions like a string of firecrackers, directly smashed into the black hole in the sea of knowledge.

  "You stinky brat, are these the things you should be concerned about? Look at your appearance, with your kind of strength, in the past you didn't even have the qualifications to follow me!"

  Facing the cold water poured over by his fellow villager, Hu Gao didn't buy it. "Xue Te! Do you think I came here on my own? If you don't want to answer questions, just hide in this dark corner and recover slowly. You're not even human-like now, where do you get the qualification to lecture me?"

  "Heh heh, your mouth is quite sharp, I think you should go cultivate your verbal skills, maybe you've already conquered the entire continent."

  Hu Gao didn't say anything else. There's a saying, "to lure someone in by pretending to let go." Since this guy was willing to wake up and talk to him, it definitely wasn't just for the sake of arguing with him.

  The calm was restored in the sea of knowledge, and the two people were silent as if they had agreed upon it.
