Unconscious

Chapter 37: Unconscious

"What!" Even with Brian's usual calm demeanor, he couldn't help but exclaim in shock.

"Impossible! My boss isn't an ordinary person, how could this happen?" France also looked incredulous.

Although he hadn't known Chen Yun for long, France truly admired Chen Yun's character.

Chen Yun had saved them from the Hundred Thousand Forest last time, and this time he stepped up again. France had long since truly regarded Chen Yun as his elder brother.

Lia and Guke also found it hard to believe.

Guke's stern face showed sadness, but his eyes held a hint of confusion. With Chen Yun's robust physique, how could he be suffering from an energy backlash so severe that even the City Lord of Skyfall City, an Emperor Rank expert, found it difficult to treat?

Niya stared blankly at Morit, tears streaming down her delicate face, making her look utterly pathetic.

This made the already awkward Morit feel even more ashamed.

Lia, being more composed and observant, quickly stepped forward to support Niya, patting her back gently and comforting her in a soft voice.

This incident was caused by his son, but Morit didn't blame Clinton. After all, he had asked Clinton to protect his son's safety.

Moreover, for the battle-loving Clinton, this fight was not wrong. Being battle-loving was a warrior's basic nature; without it, how could one expect to reach greater heights! What's more, Clinton was also seriously injured and remained unconscious.

Morit didn't dwell on these thoughts. His only headache was the injury of the young man named Chen Yun, which was too bizarre.

What Morit had initially thought was a sure thing turned out to be impossible; his Battle Qi couldn't even enter Chen Yun's body.

As soon as his Battle Qi entered, it was repelled by a force. Although this force wasn't strong for an Emperor Rank expert like him, he dared not force his way in!

Who knew what the consequences would be if he forced it! If he wasn't careful, Chen Yun, who was still breathing, could die immediately!

He wouldn't dare to do such a thing! He knew his son had molested the empire's princess. Although the Second Prince hadn't said anything, it was precisely because Morit was treating Chen Yun.

The consequences of an energy backlash could be very severe, ranging from complete physical disability to death.

But now, he was helpless regarding Chen Yun's injuries.

If anything were to happen to Chen Yun, the Second Prince and the princess might even link it to his son's actions of molesting the princess. If the matter were escalated to the Emperor, his son's head might be forfeit.

Although he was now an Emperor Rank expert, he had only been at the Lower Emperor Rank for a few years. Compared to the deep foundation of the royal family, it was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.

Morit was extremely frustrated. Why did he have to get involved in such a mess?

Furthermore, judging by Princess Niya's obvious affection for Chen Yun, he had no idea who that young man really was, to be so lucky as to befriend the Second Prince and the princess.

Especially the Second Prince, who was talented and accomplished in both literature and martial arts. Although he was only ranked third, he was deeply valued by the Emperor.

If they were to get angry, he shuddered to think! But the thought of Chen Yun's strange condition gave him a glimmer of hope.

He hoped for a miracle! At this moment, Morit, a dignified Emperor Rank expert, had to rely on miracles. When had he ever been so humiliated!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of his son, and his anger flared. He would definitely teach this scoundrel a lesson this time and make him suffer. He just didn't know if this matter could be resolved.

Meanwhile, Ximu, who was under house arrest in his room, couldn't help but shiver, a strong sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

It seemed father and son truly shared a connection!

"Cough... um... Princess, this old man is ashamed. Regarding young brother Chen Yun's injuries... please forgive me for being unable to help, uh..."

However, seeing Niya on the verge of fainting and everyone's grim expressions, especially Brian staring at him with ill intentions, Morit quickly stopped himself.

"But..."

Morit thought of Chen Yun's strangeness and decided to explain it clearly to them.

"Oh! City Lord, can you just say it all at once! Your stuttering is making my heart race!"

France impatiently interrupted Morit.

Being interrupted by France in such a tone, Morit immediately became displeased. Who did he think he was, to speak to him like that?

Morit shot France an unhappy glance.

Although Brian was eager to know what Morit had to say, he noticed the displeasure in Morit's eyes and quickly stepped forward to mediate.

"City Lord Morit, my friend is just concerned about his friend, so he spoke out of turn just now. Please don't take it to heart. Please tell us about Chen Yun!"

Brian, as expected of someone raised in politics, pointed out France's mistake, offered a subtle apology, and then seamlessly redirected Morit's attention back to Chen Yun.

Indeed, upon hearing Brian's words, Morit found it difficult to say anything further.

He slowly explained, "It's not that I can't treat your friend's injuries, but his body is somewhat peculiar. When my Battle Qi tried to enter his body to investigate, it was repelled by an unknown force. Although the force wasn't strong, I didn't dare to force my way in."

Morit paused here and continued, "However, if I'm not mistaken, he should be healing himself!"

But Morit couldn't be certain.

The others also heard the uncertainty in Morit's tone, but having hope was always good.

Brian then announced loudly, "Alright, since the City Lord has said so, let's not worry anymore. I believe Chen Yun will definitely wake up safely, ah!"

"Brother, is Big Brother Chen Yun really going to be okay?"

Niya, whose mind had been blank, suddenly regained her spirit upon hearing this. She looked at Brian with a pitiful expression and asked.

Sigh! Brian sighed inwardly. Seeing his sister like this, he felt terrible.

His sister had been very attached to him since childhood, and they were the closest among his siblings. In the royal family, among his many siblings, he only felt truly close to this sister.

"Alright, didn't Lord Morit say Chen Yun is healing himself? You know how incredibly powerful he is! How could anything happen to him? Come on, no more crying, or Chen Yun will definitely be unhappy when he wakes up!"

Brian walked over, gently stroking Niya's small head and wiping the tears from her face with a handkerchief, comforting her with great affection.

"Mm! Big Brother Chen Yun will definitely be fine. I won't cry anymore!" Niya nodded.

Although the others also breathed a sigh of relief, they all knew how difficult it would be for Chen Yun to recover. Only Niya didn't know and was still there, praying innocently.

Seeing this, the group exchanged glances and secretly shook their heads.

They had all long seen Niya's feelings for Chen Yun, but... alas! Fate plays tricks on people!

"Roar!"

A high-pitched dragon's roar suddenly echoed through the sky above the Lord's Mansion.

The entire Skyfall City fell silent. Everyone's gaze turned towards the direction of the sound. Upon realizing it was coming from the Lord's Mansion, they exchanged bewildered glances, utterly confused.

The group in the living room was also stunned by the dragon's roar.

This... this is... a wave of horror washed over them simultaneously, leaving them unable to react for a moment.

"A dragon!" Morit was the first to react, shouting in disbelief.

He then vanished abruptly. The remaining five people also snapped out of their shock, exchanged a look, and quickly ran outside.
