209: Chapter 208 Contract Reminder 209: Chapter 208 Contract Reminder Hugging his arms and leaning against the wall, Xiong Kang watched Lu Zixun burn Plague Energy, growing more proficient by the mont.
He couldn’t help but nod inwardly, praising the kid’s remarkable talent in this area.
Turning his gaze to the two doctors nearby in lab coats, Xiong Kang frowned quietly.
Why were these two constantly staring at Lu Zixun and not monitoring the patient’s condition?
Unable to figure it out, Xiong Kang fell into deep thought.
anwhile, Lu Zixun, who was administering the treatnt, was not having as much ease and comfort as it appeared from outside.
For so reason, Su Nian’s body had an exceptionally strong resistance to the Plague Energy, which kept fleeing and draining Lu Zixun’s Spiritual Energy.
This seemingly sentient Plague Energy undoubtedly made the treatnt more challenging.
As his Spiritual Energy rapidly depleted, a cold light flashed in Lu Zixun’s eyes.
Even though the Plague Energy kept running away, as long as he intensified Spiritual Fire and strategically trapped it, he could resolve the issue.
Under Lu Zixun’s deliberate control, the Plague Energy finally “died,” leaving him with scarce Spiritual Energy left.
It was at this mont that Xiong Kang, who had been lost in thought, suddenly looked up and realized sothing was amiss with the two doctors.
Ming Chengye had previously ntioned that only Lu Zixun could use this Spiritual Fire to burn Plague Energy.
Sending two doctors under the pretense of gathering inspiration, their excuses didn’t add up, hinting at an underlying conflict.
“Ding—Detecting Killing Intent Value 9000 from Gai Yue.”
“Ding—Detecting Killing Intent Value 10000 from Poison Liquid.”
Just as Xiong Kang realized this, the disguised doctors, Gai Yue and Poison Liquid, attacked Lu Zixun, who was nearly drained of Spiritual Energy.
His pupils contracted as Xiong Kang swiftly drew his Flying Sword to block Gai Yue but failed to block Poison Liquid.
Unable to use his superpower, Lu Zixun flipped over and slapped on his nano armor, trying to withstand Poison Liquid’s strike while waiting for Xiong Kang’s support.
Unexpectedly, Poison Liquid wasn’t intent on severely injuring Lu Zixun.
Instead, a greenish Plague Energy burst from his palm, penetrating through gaps in the nano armor.
Forming needle-like structures, it fiercely stabbed into Lu Zixun’s body.
Feeling a sharp pain in his chest, Lu Zixun, realizing he might have been poisoned, was about to activate his Undying ability to resist when his vision darkened, and he collapsed from the bed to the floor.
“Let’s go.”
A sharp sound, like nails scratching a chalkboard, emanated from Poison Liquid’s mouth.
Gai Yue quickly knocked away Xiong Kang’s Flying Sword and simultaneously struck the floor-to-ceiling window with a palm.
A burst of bloody energy shattered the window, and the two jumped out and fled.
Xiong Kang, capable of pursuing, reconsidered, suspecting this might be an Insect Clan sche, took a deep breath and retracted his Flying Sword, rushing to check on Lu Zixun.
Removing the nano armor, he turned Lu Zixun over, who was lying face down, and saw a patch of greenish poison on his chest.
“This is bad.”
A chilling realization hit him; indeed, there were still mbers of the Alien Race inside the hospital signaling the Insect Clan.
Otherwise, Poison Liquid wouldn’t have arrived so quickly to deal with Lu Zixun.
anwhile, Lin Siyin, waiting anxiously at the door to prevent the spread of the plague, constantly paced the corridor, increasingly overwheld by a sense of panic.
A look of urgent concern unconsciously appeared on her face.
In the mont Lu Zixun passed out, Lin Siyin felt a sharp pain in her chest that made her knees buckle and she fell pale-faced to the ground.
Her right hand clutched at her chest, and she couldn’t utter a single word for a long while.
“Lin Siyin.”
Holding Lu Zixun in his arms, Xiong Kang kicked open the hospital room door and rushed out, searching for Lin Siyin.
Seeing Lin Siyin kneeling on the ground, Xiong Kang’s heart skipped a beat.
With their Contract in place, if Lin Siyin showed no other symptoms, it ant that Lu Zixun wasn’t in any mortal danger.
But the state Lin Siyin was in now…
Xiong Kang took a deep breath.
He couldn’t stay in the hospital any longer; it was urgent they get back to the sto building.
Resolved, Xiong Kang was about to ask soone to bring Lin Siyin with him to the sto building when he saw Lin Siyin gasping for air as she stood up.
Her body slightly weak, she leaned against the wall, her lips pale: “Brother Xiong, in my bag there is a talisman flashing with green light, please stick it on Da Ju.”
“Okay.”
Setting Lu Zixun onto a nearby chair, Xiong Kang hurried into the room, found Lin Siyin’s handbag, and also the talisman she had ntioned.
Heading to sto now could only ensure the safety of this pair—human and cat—but it wouldn’t solve the plague.
Since Lin Siyin could still wake, that ant there was still a solution.
Returning to Lu Zixun’s side, Xiong Kang affixed the talisman to his poisoned chest.
Then he looked up at Lin Siyin, asking what to do next.
Lin Siyin brought her fingers together to her lips, muttering words.
A breeze arose, stirring her hair, and the talisman began to flicker with green light.
“Disperse!”
Suddenly opening her eyes, Lin Siyin uttered two words, her voice icy and majestic.
A dazzling light surged from the talisman, and the area of Lu Zixun’s chest infected by the Plague Energy visibly faded away.
At the sa ti, the color drained back into Lin Siyin’s face visibly fast.
Confused by this action, Xiong Kang hesitated: “What does this an?”
“Sigh.”
Breathing out a sigh of muddy air, Lin Siyin, her body weak, sat down on the chair: “The timing of that Insect Clan’s attack was too perfect.
Da Ju’s Spiritual Energy wasn’t enough to protect the heart, only the Spiritual Energy Acupoint.
Plague Energy shaped like needles invaded his body, directly suppressing his heart.”
“???”
Hearing this, Xiong Kang was filled with question marks.
He hadn’t known any of this had happened in the room; how had Lin Siyin, outside the hospital room, known?
Looking up at Xiong Kang’s puzzled expression, Lin Siyin rubbed her aching chest: “The Contract told , transmitting what happened to Da Ju to .”
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Siyin pulled Lu Zixun into her lap, her hands stroking his fur, her eyes reddening.
She barely resisted the stabbing pain she felt in an instant; how much more painful it must have been for Lu Zixun.
Brother Xiong, wanting to ask more about the Contract, saw Lin Siyin’s red-rimd eyes and imdiately withdrew his words, deciding that staying silent was best at this mont.
Not knowing what else to do, and feeling sowhat awkward, Xiong Kang scratched his head and said, “I’m going to find out how those two doctors got into the fifteenth floor.”
Without waiting for Lin Siyin’s reply, Xiong Kang hastily left.
“Mama mia, it killed the cat.”
Not long after Xiong Kang left, Lu Zixun suddenly opened his eyes.
The first thing he did was lift his paw and rub his chest; the pain really had been too much.
