Chapter 468 Great Hero

"What it is?!"

"It's a deity! A deity has descended to save us!"

"God bless you! God bless you!"

"Then what...is it? Ryuo's new weapon?"

"This is terrifying! No matter what it is, ordinary people like us and conventional weapons are completely powerless against it! If this thing can be mass-produced, the world will probably be turned upside down!"

"That's... internal energy! But... what kind of skill is this?!"

"Is this the skill of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top...?"

……

The people, who were not well-educated and had limited knowledge, did not understand the situation and simply attributed the appearance of the half-giant to a god descending to earth, and worshipped and prayed to him in various ways.

Those who are well-educated and knowledgeable, but who don't know much about the elite group, assume that the appearing half-giants are a new weapon of Ryuo, and can't help but feel worried about the future.

As for the group of experts, many of them realized that the half-giant was composed of "true qi," but since they were not top-level experts who had mastered the Three Qi Gathering at the Top, they did not know the specifics of the half-giant and were filled with shock and confusion.

Only a very few highly skilled individuals who had achieved the simultaneous transformation of the three aspects of the universe and had even touched upon the realm of "the perfect harmony of the three aspects" had guessed the general possibility of the half-giant.

The people of the entire "Holding Sea" were filled with various emotions and speculations about the sudden appearance and destructive power of the half-giant.

While the people of the "Holder Sea" were shocked by the half-giant, Ryuo's attack was also slowed down due to the appearance of the half-giant.

The unknown is always frightening.

The soldiers of Ryuo were merely guided in their thoughts, not controlled. Naturally, they felt fear when faced with a half-Titan beyond their comprehension.

Therefore, the appearance of the half-giant gave the extremely tense war atmosphere in the "Holder Sea" a chance to breathe.

In the following days, under the cover of darkness, the gunshots in both the eastern and western parts of Huhai became quieter and less frequent...

In the pitch-black night, gunshots occasionally rang out from the east and west sides of Huhai, but they were all short-lived and stopped abruptly after a few moments.

It was past 4 a.m.

The night, which had been pitch black, began to lighten and dawn was approaching.

Xicheng District, Yinxing District.

Beneath a certain street, in a hidden basement.

In a windowless, sealed room with only an iron door, there was a pool covered with tiles.

At this moment, the pool was filled with dark brown, steaming water. A figure was immersed in it, leaning against one side of the pool, resting his arms on the edge of the tiles, looking up and closing his eyes to relax.

Suddenly, with a loud "bang," the only iron gate was pulled open from the outside.

Immediately afterwards, a young man walked in carrying a bucket of steaming liquid with a strong medicinal smell.

"Master Chen, this is the last barrel of medicine. My master has used up all the qi-tonifying and blood-nourishing medicine in the warehouse for the time being, but don't worry, we have urgently asked people to transfer some from other places, and it should arrive soon."

The young man who came in spoke as he carried a wooden bucket toward the pool.

The figure submerged in the pool was none other than Chen Qing!

"Yes, thank you for your trouble."

Chen Qing, who was leaning against the edge of the pool, hummed softly after hearing the young man's words, and then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Um... what should I call you, brother?"

Upon hearing this, the young man carrying the wooden bucket walked in and replied with a smile, "Master Chen, you and my master are of the same generation. You can call me 'Tianyi' or Xiao Wang, either is fine." As he spoke, he came to the edge of the pool, lifted the wooden bucket in his hands, and poured the steaming medicinal liquid into the pool.

"Splash, splash~"

"……it is good."

After hearing his words, Chen Qing nodded slightly and asked, "How is the situation outside now?"

By this time, he had been soaking in the medicinal liquid for some time, and several hours had passed since Wang Baichuan brought him here and he waited for the medicinal herbs to be boiled.

Thanks to his own superb recovery ability, coupled with the effects of the qi-tonifying and blood-nourishing medicine, he was able to slightly alleviate his physical fatigue and injuries.

Although he was still experiencing intense pain throughout his body, it was not as bad as when he first released the "Heaven and Earth Formation" technique, where even the slightest movement would cause continuous damage. So, after his disciple Wang Baichuan, named "Tianyi," said that it was the last bucket of medicine, he asked about the situation outside. Because his five senses were injured and he was currently in the basement, he could not hear the situation on the ground very clearly.

"My master said that because of your great prowess, Master Chen, Liu Ying has temporarily halted its attack, and 'Hu Hai' has gained a brief respite!"

Upon hearing Chen Qing's question, the young man named Tianyi continued pouring the medicine while looking at Chen Qing with a mixture of excitement and admiration on his face, saying, "Master Chen, you are a great hero of our Huhai!"

After hearing this, Chen Qing slowly opened his closed eyes, a thoughtful look appearing in them.

Wang Baichuan's promotion of his image in this way was somewhat unexpected.

Because when he used "Law of Heaven and Earth" to fight Lu Tianyuan, he sensed some dissatisfaction from Wang Baichuan.

He understood that the other party disapproved of his actions at the time.

He didn't offer any explanation afterward, since he genuinely hadn't considered the potential damage and impact that using "Heaven and Earth Transformation" to fight Lu Tianyuan would have on the city of Huhai and the people around it.

He was never a pushover, and being a disciple of the White Tiger Hall, that was his nature.

Therefore, he was naturally somewhat surprised by Wang Baichuan's account to others.

However, after a brief moment of surprise, he asked again, "Where is your master?"

"Master is having a meeting with officials."

As Wang Tianyi answered, he also emptied the entire contents of the wooden bucket and put it down.

Then, he looked at Chen Qing and smiled, "Master Chen, should I go and call my master over?"

"no need."

Chen Qing shook his head slightly and replied, "You can leave now."

He knew exactly what Wang Baichuan was doing. Although Liuying had temporarily ceased hostilities, with Liuying's Sakura Emperor in power, it was only a matter of time before Liuying launched another attack. The "decapitation plan" had to be carried out.

He asked that question out of caution, wanting to observe Wang Tianyi's reaction and confirm it.

After finding nothing unusual, he naturally prioritized healing and recovering.

"Ok."

Wang Tianyi nodded after hearing his words and continued with a smile, "Then Master Chen, just call out if you need anything, I'll be right outside."

After saying that, he consciously left the secret room.

Chen Qing didn't speak, but simply looked up and closed her eyes again.

In the retina of his left eye, the values ​​of his [Energy, Vitality, and Spirit], which had plummeted by more than half, were gradually recovering at a steady pace...
