Chapter One Hundred Sixty-Two: Under Eighteen
Upon receiving the summons from Zuo Yi and hearing about the issues Ye Huan was facing, the members of the Professional Three Hundred Dragon Hall had been restless since arriving at the military camp. Their suggestions were all ridiculous; some believed they should take Ye Luo to a remote place to release the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy within him, while others proposed whether Ye Luo could absorb all of it. Even more absurdly, Yang Guangyao suggested that Ye Huan should merge the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy into his own body.
"Do you want me to burst? No way..."
Hearing Yang Guangyao's suggestion, Ye Huan couldn't help but frown and mutter under his breath, filled with worry. He pondered how he could ensure both Ye Luo's safety and that of Tianyue City while pulling Ye Luo back from the brink of death. As for the suggestions from the Dragon Hall members, Ye Huan had considered them, but generally speaking, almost all of them overlooked one crucial issue: no one knew what would happen if the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy within Ye Luo were to leak out. There had never been such an example in history, nor had anyone even heard of it; thus, there was no way to draw a conclusion.
After reiterating the key points to the Dragon Hall members, he was met with an overwhelming silence. None of them had any ideas; it was understandable since this situation had never occurred before in history—who could predict the outcome?
After waiting for a while without receiving any response, Ye Huan realized that expecting the Dragon Hall members to come up with a solution was somewhat unreasonable. He wondered if it would be necessary to go to the capital and consult Durei IV. After all, he was a Ninth-Level Practitioner who had lived for so long; he must know more than most.
Hesitating, he thought about who would take care of Ye Luo after he left. However, among the Dragon Hall members, a dark-skinned man suddenly stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Young Master, I think since no one has ever encountered this problem before, why can't you trust your own judgment?"
The observer's clarity struck Ye Huan immediately upon hearing this. Although he was young in age, his strength was not far behind Durei IV. Even without considering his ability to Summon Arms, Ye Huan had become a Fifth-Level Summoner within just a year since becoming a summoner. Not to mention he also held the identity of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator. In terms of experience, he had traveled between two countries on the Nine Provinces Continent and even visited another continent during this time. While he might not match Durei IV in experience, it was still considerable.
In such circumstances, would going to Durei IV truly yield the answers he sought?
Moreover, no one knew that in Ye Huan's heart lay a small knot regarding Durei IV. The reason was simple: when he returned from Eastern State to Huaxia Imperial Capital and met Durei IV for the first time, Ye Huan noticed something off about Durei IV's gaze towards him. Yet he couldn't pinpoint what exactly felt wrong; it was merely an instinctive judgment stemming from his abilities as a Cultivator. If it weren't absolutely necessary, Ye Huan would prefer not to face Durei IV, who had once guided him into this world.
"There's only a few days left, so I might as well give it my all!"
After much contemplation, Ye Huan finally made up his mind. A terrifying light flickered in his eyes, giving off an aura of determination that seemed to declare, "Who else but me?" However, this brilliance lasted less than a second before vanishing without anyone else noticing.
He didn't rush to Ye Luo's side. After being reminded by a dark-skinned member of Dragon Hall, Ye Huan couldn't help but feel a bit of fondness for him. He smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
"I... I'm Lo Shaobin, a member of the Royal House of Luo..."
Rubbing his eyes, Lo Shaobin's deep and rough voice revealed his shock at Ye Huan's smile. It was well-known among the members of Dragon Hall that Ye Huan was referred to as 'White Impermanence' largely because he rarely showed any smiles to them. Aside from Yang Guangyao, Lo Shaobin might be the second member of Dragon Hall to receive a smile from Ye Huan.
Unaware of how much a smile could excite his subordinates, Ye Huan pondered the impression he had of the Royal House of Luo after hearing Lo Shaobin's words. Indeed, the Luo family had some reputation in the capital. Every generation sent their descendants to serve in the military upon turning eighteen; they were not allowed to reveal their true identities until they made a name for themselves. Over time, ninety percent of the Luo family members developed a fierce character from their hardships and battlefield experiences. If Ye Huan remembered correctly, Lo Shaobin was one of the few selected from the spontaneous Guards in Huaxia Imperial Capital and had the courage to claim his lineage. He must not yet be eighteen.
Comparing their heights, Ye Huan felt that Lo Shaobin's physique didn't resemble that of an underage child. He couldn't help but ask, "By the way, how old are you this year?"
"In response to Young Master, I will turn eighteen in a couple of days!"
Lo Shaobin spoke loudly, clearly excited to have caught the attention of Ye Huan, the highest leader of Dragon Hall. He even shyly scratched his head, which immediately endeared him to Ye Huan. He patted Lo Shaobin's shoulder and said, "Since you're a member of Dragon Hall, you should put away that shyness! Work hard, and I believe you'll make a name for yourself like the other members of the Luo family..."
"Yes, Young Master! I believe I will be even more outstanding than the other members of the Luo family!"
Standing straight with his hands pressed against his pants seams as taught in training by Ye Huan, Lo Shaobin raised his head and declared loudly with his deep voice. It was clear he was expressing his determination. However, upon hearing this, Ye Huan merely smiled slightly and said nothing more. He turned away, fists clenched tightly. 'Others have their family members; what about me? No matter what happens, even if it costs me my life, I must rescue Ye Butler!' With this resolve in mind, Ye Huan strode forward without hesitation, demonstrating his inner conviction.
Returning to the tent alone—Zuo Yi had not followed him and must have dispersed with the other members of Dragon Hall—Ye Huan welcomed the solitude. What he needed now was quiet time to think about how to extract the vast amounts of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy from Ye Luo's body.
Various methods proposed by the members of Dragon Hall flashed through Ye Huan's mind one by one. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Ye Huan finally made up his mind and chose the simplest yet most adventurous path...
