Chapter 4203 - 4222: Yes, I Saved Him

Talina was sitting on a stone bench, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, and her face full of worry.

Although she had already witnessed Lin Chen’s magical Earth Escape technique, after all, there were five Nebula Strongmen in the sky, all at the Fifth Layer of Nebula, which was not something Augustus could compare to.

Lin Chen had just flashed from midair, and Talina immediately stood up, her face filled with joy.

"Lin Chen, have we escaped?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Yes, we have. They were fighting so intensely that no one paid attention to me."

Talina let out a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.

"That’s good. Although we experienced some setbacks, the ultimate goal was still achieved."

Lin Chen asked, "We’re now in the wild mountains. Where to next, any plans?"

Talina answered, "We’ll go to the Eagle Territory. President Eric promised to heal my father’s injuries, but we still need various materials. We must return to the headquarters in Sky Eagle City to gather them all."

Lin Chen glanced at Eric and the others in the distance, stepped forward two steps, and lowered his voice, "Will there be trouble when we go to the headquarters?"

Talina immediately understood Lin Chen’s meaning and said in a low voice, "Although the Eagle Territory and the Black Witch Territory are fighting, this has nothing to do with us. We saved him, so even if we reach the headquarters in Sky Eagle City, even if he reneges on saving my father, he won’t likely turn against us, will he?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, then let’s go to Sky Eagle City."

Lin Chen had never dealt with Eric and didn’t know what kind of person he was, but Talina made sense. She was an outsider and hadn’t offended the Eagle Territory officials. Furthermore, she had saved Eric, and regardless of everything else, Eric shouldn’t turn his back heartlessly.

After a brief discussion, Lin Chen left the Void Pearl and released everyone.

Eric, a Foxman with a tall, emaciated frame, and narrow, deep eyes, surveyed the surroundings, and finally, his gaze landed on Lin Chen.

"Human Clan? Where are you from?"

Lin Chen replied, "Federation."

Eric’s eyes showed puzzlement, "To my knowledge, the Federation’s technological development is not high enough to possess such impressive space technology."

Lin Chen laughed, "We are Cultivators, similar to your witchcraft, with some unique abilities."

Eric responded with an "Oh," and exclaimed in admiration, "This Space Technique is truly wondrous. With such ability, how did you become a slave?"

Lin Chen answered, "Some accidents happened, President Eric. How should we proceed?"

Eric noticed Lin Chen’s reluctance to discuss his situation further and did not press on, saying calmly, "Find a City, and then we can take a Flying Ship to Sky Eagle City."

Lin Chen nodded and stepped back behind Talina, without saying more.

Although Eric was the President of the Witchcraft Association, his strength was not that of a Nebula Martial Artist, but the Peak of Star Dust Ninth Level.

Lin Chen found this somewhat strange, but did not ask further questions.

The group soon found a nearby City, where Eric purchased a Smart Brain Bracelet and made several phone calls.

"I’ve already informed my subordinates to prepare the necessary materials. Once we arrive in Sky Eagle City, we can immediately begin the treatment for your father."

"I’ve checked your father; although he is severely injured, I’m confident I can wake him up. However, after he wakes up, he may not be able to maintain his original strength."

Talina asked nervously, "What level of strength can he roughly retain?"

Eric answered, "He can roughly retain the strength from the First to the Second Layer of Nebula, anything higher is basically impossible."

Talina sighed in relief, "Good, I entrust everything to you, President."

Clearly, this answer was acceptable to Talina. As long as the strength remains at the Nebula Martial Artist level, even if the level is slightly lower, it won’t be a major issue, especially since Augustus is only at the Second Layer of Nebula.

Even if King Qingchuan Sea is slightly weaker, his prestige remains; as long as he returns alive to suppress, major issues can be settled.

The group bought tickets and spent a night in the City, and the next day they took a Flying Ship to Sky Eagle City.

Lin Chen didn’t rush to buy Medicine, nor did he seek Eric.

This City was too small to possibly have high-end Potions, and as for Eric, he didn’t carry anything on him, so there was no point in asking.

Luo Si started with his medicinal pill, slowly recovering.

The journey was uneventful, and several days later, the group safely arrived in Sky Eagle City.

Witchcraft Association Headquarters.

As soon as Eric arrived, a group of people rushed out to ask about his well-being.

Eric raised his hand to stop everyone from talking, "How’s the Black Witch Territory now?"

The staff answered, "The Black Witch Territory is now completely under our control, but since its Lord, Luo Si, fled, no arrangements have been made there. For now, the priority is to track down Luo Si, as he’s a powerhouse of the Sixth Layer, and until he’s captured, no one can rest easy."

Eric frowned, "Any information?"

The staff answered, "No news for now. We heard he was jointly attacked by five Fifth Layer Nebula Strongmen, was poisoned, almost died, but was suddenly rescued."

Eric asked in surprise, "Who could rescue someone right under the noses of five Fifth Layer Nebula Strongmen?"

Standing nearby, Talina’s eyes slightly narrowed, her gaze turned slightly to look at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen noticed Talina’s action and knew she was suspecting him.

Lin Chen was not worried, as he had no intention of hiding it from Talina.

He hadn’t mentioned it before, merely concerned about revealing this in Eric’s presence. Having shown the Space Magic Treasure, he might also grow suspicious.

The staff answered, "Unknown, not even a suspect, supposedly disappeared into thin air."

Eric smirked slightly, frowning, and stopped speaking.

"The investigation is unrelated to us, so don’t concern yourselves; disperse and attend to your duties."

After sending away the gathered staff, Eric led Talina and Lin Chen into a large room filled with a strong medicinal odor.

"Put your father here. Once the materials are ready, we can perform the technique to save him. Everything goes well; he can wake up in about ten days to half a month."

"Alright!"

Lin Chen brought out the medical chamber containing King Qingchuan Sea.

Eric raised his hand, "Settle yourselves in first, arrange rooms for them."

The two left the room, guided by the staff to the accommodation area, where they were each assigned a room.

Lin Chen had just sat down when Talina knocked on the room door.

Standing at the entrance, Talina asked, "This Sky Eagle City is vast, want to go for a walk?"

Lin Chen glanced at Talina, smiled, "Sure."

The two walked out of the association one after the other and onto the lively street outside.

Talina paced ahead, "Will someone overhear us here?"

Lin Chen laughed, "You’re quite cautious. You want to ask if I was the one who rescued him, right?"

Talina slightly paused her footsteps, her eyes sharpening, "Was it you?"

Lin Chen nodded candidly, "Yes, it was me who rescued him."
