Reiki Rejuvenation, I Forged Myself Into A Divine Weapon - Chapter 38
Chapter 38 Chapter 38: Deep Sorrow!
“It was a hundred year old man who saved
us!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, everybody fell into silence once again.
One could even faintly hear the sound of breathing
Everybody was in disbelief. A hundred year old man? Saving people?
All the words put together just sound so absurd.
“That’s right, it was indeed a hundred year old man. His spiritual power was already very weak, but he risked his life to save us!” A member of Chang Le’s team used his right hand to wipe the corner of his wet eyes as he said with a choked voice.
The people around them were too stunned to speak, but a second later they quickly fell into chaos.
“He is already over a hundred years old. How strong can he be? At most, he is only a normal martial artist!”
“A hundred year old man?! At that age, his Qi, blood, and spiritual power would’ve dropped drastically. How can he stop the agile monkeys?”
“At that age, his strength is definitely not as good as Brother Chang Le’s. Could it be that Brother Chang Le is the one who got out of that predicament?”
For a time, there were different opinions.
The main reason was that the news was a little too unbelievable.
Among the martial artists who had reached the age of a hundred, they would usually choose to retire. It was very rare to see them wandering into the satellite towns.
Moreover, at that age, a series of health related problems such as a recurrence of old injuries would cause one’s strength to drop greatly.
Everyone was more willing to believe that Chang Le, the most young and physically strong looking man, was the one who had solved that crisis.
When the words ‘agile monkeys’ anda hundred years old’ were combined and placed into one sentence, they may sound somewhat harmonious, but who would not have any doubts?
“Could that old man be a being above the level of a martial master?!” The blond-haired, blue-eyed, and muscular beauty asked in puzzlement.
If Chang Le and the others weren’t joking, and if that man truly had saved them from danger… Then that hundred year old man could only be a martial grandmaster.
Normally, people who reached the level of a martial master could live up to two hundred years old, and martial grandmasters, which was a grade higher than martial masters, could live up to three hundred years old.
An old man who looked like he was only a hundred years old, basically still in the prime of his life, was a martial grandmaster!?
The people around them became lively once again.
“Could it be that he’s the high and mighty… Martial grandmaster?!”
“That would explain it. A hundred year old martial grandmaster! This is a rare sight!”
“Quickly tell us which martial grandmaster it was. Let us pay our respects to him!”
“Indeed, I’ve never seen a martial grandmaster make a move. That scene must be very shocking!”
The crowd once again fell into a discussion.
Chang Le looked at everyone’s gaze that were looking back at him with an expectant look. He knew that everyone had misunderstood his meaning
He coughed softly.
“That person is not a martial grandmaster, but a martial artist with weak strength.” As he spoke, his voice gradually became low.
The four martial artists beside him also silently lowered their heads.
He secretly blamed himself for not being stronger, that he even needed someone else to come to save him.
This hundred year old man must have died on the spot.
It was truly his fault!
Being weak in the martial artists’ world was the most basic sin!
When the others heard him, they were all extremely shocked.
“Nonsense!”
“How is this possible? How can a mere martial artist defeat a horde of agile monkeys?!”
“A normal martial artist won’t even scratch a grade three agile monkey’s defense!”
“Chang Le, we respect you, but we are not fools. Don’t treat us as if we don’t have any brains!”
The surrounding people were boiling, feeling that their intelligence had been insulted.
They were simply treated as idiots by this
man.
Who could bear this?!
“He was there to be a bait, to lure the agile monkeys away, so that we could retreat safely,” A female martial artist among the four people who were with Chang Le, spoke in a low voice.
As she spoke, the female martial artist began to sob deeply.
It was as if she saw the hundred year old man sacrifice his life for the sake of humanity’s righteousness.
A monument needed to be made for that man!
A hundred year old man who was basically a stranger to her had given up his own life in order to save them, and she was filled with regret.
Everyone in the room fell into a deathly silence once more.
When they processed the words Changle and the others had said, they realized that their martial artists did not mean to deceive them.
Everyone was in awe of this hundred year old man.
The crowd, who were making fun of them before, did not make a sound.
Although they did not personally witness the scene where this hundred year old man had saved them, they were still deeply touched by his actions.
What kind of soul he was!
For the sake of the younger people like Chang Le, he didn’t care about his own life and had consequently died.
Hearing these descriptions, they were deeply dissatisfied with their own weak strength.
An Elder, in order to save these youngsters, led those agile monkeys away by himself and died an unnatural death!
Putting themselves in the old man’s shoes, they would have given priority to their own safety first.
Everyone present was in awe of the old man.
“I’ll toast to this old man!” A burly man with a thick waist and armor had wanted to thank this stranger for saving his good friend, Chang Le’s life.
He first downed his glass, then raised it and downed it in one gulp.
“I’ll toast to him as well!” The blonde beauty followed the burly man’s footsteps and drank a glass as well.
“If my strength increases greatly in the future, I will definitely take revenge on those agile monkeys!”
“Count me in!”
“And me!”
Everyone gathered their courage and continued to look forward.
At this moment, three martial artists walked in and saw the scene. For a moment they thought they had entered the wrong place.
They went out and looked at the door plate and found that they had indeed arrived at the right place.
After asking around carefully, they found out the whole story. It turned out that they were mourning over a hundred year old man who had sacrificed himself for others.
Only then did they remember a certain hundred year old man they had met on the road.
“I wonder if the person we met is the one you guys are talking about?”
When Chang Le heard this, he thought that the old man might have had some special escape plan.
The martial master’s aura was fully released, which instantly shocked the people who just arrived.
“Where did you meet this old man?”
The three of them looked at the aggressive Chang Le and told him the address in detail.
Chang Le didn’t think too much and quickly rushed out of the hotel and headed straight to the location they mentioned.
When he didn’t see Su Yun, the hope that had just risen in his heart gradually disappeared.
After all, surrounded by a group of agile monkeys, even a martial grandmaster with the strength of a powerhouse would find it difficult to escape unscathed, let alone an old man who looked like he was going to keel over!
Su Yun found a hotel to stay in. After washing up, he fell asleep.
After living in the wilderness for so long, he was extremely nervous every day. How could he completely relax?
Soon, he fell into a deep sleep.
He slept until three o’clock in the afternoon the next day.
The first thing Su Yun did after waking up was to start using the blood flame grass to replenish the Qi and blood in his body.
His body was washed by waves of Qi and blood power.
Then, he started to activate his ( Spiritual Qi Technique ) and found that the spirit energy in his body was rapidly increasing.
Not long after, Su Yun felt that he had broken through some level.
Then, he felt that he had reached the next realm!
“This breakthrough actually came so suddenly!”
