Ultimate: Gangster Youth, starting with release from prison

"I didn't expect this year's sword spirit holder to be so talented. When I last met him, he only had 100000 combat power and didn't even have a sword spirit, so I pushed him out of here first."

"I never imagined that in just one month, his combat power would break through 130,000, and he would even obtain his own sword spirit. It seems that I, the Slaughter Apostle, am about to make a comeback." Thinking of this, he laughed.

In the ward

Lin Yu slowly regained consciousness.

Suddenly, he sensed the aura of the spatial ring, and the image of Xiaolan being injured appeared in his mind.

He recklessly increased his power, flashed to the area of ​​the aura, and didn't even notice that the needle in his hand was bleeding.

However, when he arrived at the door, he hesitated whether to push it open and go in.

Because he left Xiaolan alone in the Gold Dimension, she came to the Iron Dimension to find him, and ended up being seriously injured.

He hesitated for a moment outside the door, but his desire to see Xiaolan ultimately won out over Jiu.

He tiptoed into the ward and carefully walked inside. The scene before him broke his heart. Li Yanyan had her eyes closed, her brows furrowed, and her face pale.

Xiao Lan's lifeless face pierced his heart like a sharp arrow, leaving him heartbroken.

He clutched his chest tightly, unable to speak for a long time, as if he were about to die. He slowly walked to the bedside, the apology in his eyes almost tangible.

He gently grasped Xiaolan's cold hand, holding it tightly in his own, and murmured something to himself.

"Xiao Lan, I'm sorry, I broke the contract, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been seriously injured! I'm sorry!" Lin Yu's face was full of guilt.

As if sensing its master's pain, the Chaos Sword Spirit spoke in an ethereal voice.

"Master, I can help the woman on the bed heal her injuries."

"What? Really?" Lin Yu suddenly became excited.

[383] Exchange 30,000 combat power!

"Well... but, Master needs to give up 30,000 combat power in exchange."

"Thirty thousand combat power? Are you kidding me?" Lin Yu frowned slightly, his tone filled with disbelief, while the Chaos Sword Spirit seemed to be testing his bottom line in a joking manner.

"To save people, the master has no choice but to exchange his fighting strength; there is no other way!"

The words were spoken lightly, yet they struck Lin Yu's heart like a heavy hammer, and the turbulent emotions made him make a decisive decision.

"Alright, I'm willing to trade 30,000 combat power for it. Let's do it."

"Master is wise!" The Chaos Sword Spirit had barely finished speaking when a dazzling light emanated from its body.

In an instant, Lin Yu felt his power being drained from his body, and his combat strength plummeted to 100,000, leaving him stunned.

"You're really fast. All the power I accumulated through countless life-and-death battles vanished in the blink of an eye—30,000!"

His emotions were in turmoil, as if he had fallen from the clouds into an abyss, filled with resentment and disappointment.

He sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the Chaos Sword, his heart filled with a deathly stillness.

740 After absorbing Lin Yu's combat power, the God-Slaying Sword shone even brighter, slowly injecting the absorbed power into Xiao Lan's body.

In the blink of an eye, Xiaolan's injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Her complexion gradually became rosy, and her wounds healed rapidly without leaving any trace.

Witnessing this reaction, the gloom in Lin Yu's heart dissipated, and he comforted himself.

"Forget it, losing 30,000 combat power is fine. Xiao Lan is completely alright, that's enough."

After a long while...

When Xiaolan opened her heavy eyelids and saw Lin Yu beside her, her eyes couldn't help but redden.

"Is this...is this real? If it's a dream, I hope I don't wake up, because with you, everything is wonderful."

Xiao Lan thought to herself, tears welling in her eyes, but she hesitated to let them fall, as if afraid that all of this would vanish like a bubble again.

Suddenly, Lin Yu's warm and familiar voice rang in her ears, piercing through the fog in her heart like the morning sun.

Her vision blurred, and tears finally broke free, dripping hot water onto the sheets. She hadn't wanted to show her vulnerability, but faced with Lin Yu's frail figure, all her strength crumbled instantly.

She wanted to complain about his sudden departure, leaving her all alone in the endless loneliness of the Gold Dimension, but looking at his haggard face, all her blame turned into heartache.

Finally, the torrent of emotions broke through the dam of reason, and she threw herself into Lin Yu's arms, bursting into tears as if to pour out all her longing and grievances.

Lin Yu felt the trembling body in his arms, each sob like a hammer blow to his heart, painful yet willing.

Her tears seemed to pierce his chest, striking the depths of his soul, making his heart tremble.

"Xiaolan, I was wrong, so terribly wrong. I shouldn't have pushed you away time and time again in the name of love, hurting you. Please forgive me, give me another chance, I swear I'll never let go again, please don't cry, okay?"

Lin Yu gently patted her back with deep remorse, each word carrying his deepest regret and promise.

Xiao Lan's crying gradually turned into sobs. She stared at Lin Yu for a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice.

"You said the same thing last time. Men always say things so easily. But I'm still willing to take the gamble, because I still can't completely let you go."

Lin Yu held her hand tightly, his eyes shining with determination: "This time, I will never let you down. I will no longer selfishly make decisions for you. I will respect every choice you make. No matter where you want to go or what you want to do, I will support you and stay by your side."

Xiaolan was skeptical, but the spark of hope in her heart was rekindled: "Really?"

Lin Yu nodded emphatically, his eyes gentle yet resolute: "Absolutely true. In your world, I will always be your strongest support, giving you peace and helping you withstand the storms."

After struggling internally, Xiaolan finally nodded and silently recited the mantra.

"Lin Yu, even if the future holds unknown deception, I still choose to believe. Because, in this world full of lies, your existence is my most genuine desire."

When she noticed Lin Yu's weak state, a feeling of worry arose: "Lin Yu, what's wrong? You look terrible."

Lin Yu smiled and tried to appear relaxed: "It's just that my superpowers are exhausted. I'll be fine after a rest."

"Power exhausted?" Xiao Lan's eyes suddenly lit up. She took out a carefully preserved glass test tube from her bosom, which contained a milky white liquid.

Seeing Lin Yu's confusion, she smiled through her tears, full of relief: "This is magic control liquid, which can quickly restore supernatural abilities and improve one's combat power. With your strength, you will definitely not be affected."

Seeing the joy in her eyes, Lin Yu couldn't bear to disappoint her, so he took the test tube but gently shook his head: "Let's try it again when I've recovered a bit."

He knew that he was currently exhausted and unable to withstand this force, so he could only make up an excuse to get by.

"No, I can't let our fighting strength decline. I must restore our fighting power!" Lin Yu vowed silently in his heart.

"Lin Yu, what's wrong? Are you pondering some profound question?" Xiao Lan asked softly, a hint of confusion in her voice.

"It's nothing, just thinking casually," Lin Yu casually changed the subject, his attention however falling on her slightly disheveled appearance, and joked.

[384] The headquarters was destroyed, but the Xia family was unharmed!

"Look at you, your face is all smeared with tears, you look like a little kitten!" After saying this, he carefully cupped Xiaolan's face and gently wiped away the tear stains on her cheeks with his delicate fingers.

"I don't have a painted face, you're the one with the painted face!" Xiaolan's cheeks flushed red, half shy and half protesting.

Looking at her shy expression, Lin Yu felt a surge of affection and unconsciously patted her head.

However, perhaps because Xiaolan had been unconscious for a long time and hadn't been cared for, his fingers touched something greasy, causing a barely perceptible hint of discomfort to flash across his face. Unfortunately, Xiaolan caught this subtle expression.

"You stinky Lin Yu, do you hate me? Hmm?" Xiao Lan pretended to be angry, but there was a hint of anger in her voice.

Upon hearing this, a sly glint flashed in Lin Yu's eyes, and he said something flattering: "Yan Yan is so beautiful, how could I dislike her? Absolutely not!"

"I saw it all! You absolutely hate me!" Xiaolan childishly rubbed against his neck, as if trying to erase all her resentment, muttering, "You still dare to dislike me? Humph!"

Faced with this childish behavior, Lin Yu simply smiled without saying a word, hugged her tightly, and indulged her little temper.

However, this sweet moment was shattered by an unexpected visitor. The arrival of Huyan Jue Luo-Ai was like a bucket of cold water, waking the two from their blissful reverie.

Huyan Jue Luo-Ai witnessed this scene awkwardly, his smile froze, and he could only cough dryly and force a smile, saying, "You guys continue, just pretend I don't exist."

After saying that, he turned to run away, but was stopped by Lin Yu.

Xiao Lan blushed deeply and quickly buried her head in Lin Yu's chest, whispering, "This is so embarrassing."

Lin Yu chuckled and comforted her, "It's alright, Xiao Lan. He's from my team, Huyan Jue Luo-Ai. You can call him Huyan Jue Luo-Ai." Turning to Huyan Jue Luo-Ai, he introduced her further, "Huyan Jue Luo-Ai, this is my girlfriend, Xiao Lan."

After the introductions, a subtle awkwardness filled the air, and the group didn't know what to do.

Lin Yu broke the silence at the right moment: "Huyan Jue Luo-Ai, you're here, why did you bring anything?" As he spoke, he unceremoniously accepted the gifts from Huyan Jue Luo-Ai's hands.

Huyan Jue Luo Ai smiled wryly and shook his head: "You really are quite interesting."

"Um, Huyan Jue Luo-Ai, what happened that you called me?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

"You almost forgot, I'm here to tell you about the current situation in the Iron Dimension."

"Okay! Let's sit down and talk properly then!"

"Mmm!"

The three sat down, and Lin Yu and Xiao Lan tacitly picked up the fruit that Hu Yanjue Luo-Ai had brought, without any hesitation.

Huyan Jue Luo-Ai then said solemnly, "According to Xiu, the Xia family has been invaded by the Demon Lord, the four strongest Demon Lords, and the ten Demon Generals."

"What? The headquarters has been destroyed!" Lin Yu exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't worry, although the Xia family was surrounded, they ultimately managed to defeat the demons."

Lin Yu found it hard to believe; under such a powerful enemy, the Xia family should have had little chance of survival. He didn't interrupt, waiting for Huyan Jue Luo-Ai to continue.

"At the critical moment, a man named Shuo Jinzhe appeared. He not only saved the Xia family, but also scared away those guys from the Demon Realm. So the Iron Dimension was able to breathe a sigh of relief, and the danger was temporarily over!"
