Morit's Guess

Chapter 39: Morit's Guess

Morit was utterly terrified right now.

That was the roar of a dragon! A dragon! One of the most powerful races on the entire War God Continent!

Every newly adult Giant Dragon possessed the strength of an Emperor Rank, truly terrifying.

Although dragons hadn't appeared on the continent for many years, their might was still deeply etched in people's hearts.

How could a Giant Dragon appear here? Morit pondered uneasily.

The moment Morit left the living room, the dragon's roar vanished. Even though Morit was an Emperor Rank expert, he found nothing.

Morit floated above the City Lord's Mansion, his sharp eyes scanning in all directions. His immense divine sense covered the entirety of Skyfall City, not missing a single corner. However, after a long while, he found nothing.

The dragon's roar had come too suddenly, causing him to freeze for a moment. By the time he emerged, the roar had already disappeared.

Morit's brow furrowed into a deep crease as he wondered to himself.

Sigh! He let out a helpless sigh.

After searching for a long time with no results, Morit had no choice but to give up.

His body trembled, and he vanished into the air. When he reappeared, he was already in the room where Chen Yun was staying.

"Huh?"

Morit exclaimed in surprise. Chen Yun's room was far too quiet.

Logically, Chen Yun should have had some energy fluctuations after being hit by an energy backlash, but there was absolutely no movement in the room now.

Could it be...? Morit's expression changed drastically. It couldn't be this fast...

Without time to think, Morit rushed into the room.

But immediately, Morit froze.

What appeared before Morit's eyes was a naked man. His bronze skin occasionally shimmered with an alluring glow, and his streamlined muscles were evenly distributed, looking both aesthetically pleasing and powerfully built.

What a magnificent body! Morit couldn't help but praise.

Indeed, Chen Yun's body had become incredibly robust after six years of physical cultivation. After this energy backlash and being saved by that mysterious Jade Pendant, his entire Physical Body had undergone a complete transformation, with a divine light faintly flowing within.

Morit, being an Emperor Rank expert, only paused for a moment before regaining his senses.

He already knew Chen Yun was no longer in danger. He glanced around the room, only seeing some fragments of clothing.

What was going on? How could his energy backlash have subsided so quickly? It shouldn't have!

Morit thought, his heart filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Looking at his current condition, his body was unharmed and seemed to have even changed.

Morit had a million questions in his heart right now, but there was no one to answer them.

Morit's tiger-like eyes suddenly sharpened, and he sent a strand of divine sense towards the unconscious Chen Yun.

However, the moment his divine sense touched Chen Yun's body, the small blood-red dragon within Chen Yun's lower abdomen suddenly opened its eyes. Two dazzling golden beams shot out like sharp swords towards Morit's divine sense.

Morit's divine sense recoiled as if struck by electricity.

This is... Morit's expression was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

This young man's body is truly bizarre! His identity is probably not simple! Morit sighed inwardly.

Just then, Brian and the others also arrived.

Niya led the way, rushing into the room.

But, "Ah!" A high-pitched scream immediately rang out from the room.

The faces of those behind her changed drastically, and they quickened their pace to rush in.

However, a petite figure collided with Brian's chest. Brian stopped abruptly, and the others behind him slammed on the brakes, halting their steps.

"What's wrong, Niya! What happened?"

Bright reached out and helped Niya up, who had accidentally stumbled into his arms, and asked.

"I... I..."

Niya's face was flushed red, and she stammered, unable to say anything coherent for a long time.

"Ah! It's boss, this... this..."

France's rough and honest face was full of astonishment. He pointed directly at the naked Chen Yun on the bed with his right index finger, his eyes wide open.

The others also looked over upon hearing this. Only Niya stood beside Bright with a shy expression, her head lowered.

"Ah!"

Lia also saw Chen Yun lying naked on the bed, screamed, and quickly turned her head away.

"Pfft!"

Niya, standing beside her, couldn't help but chuckle at Lia's embarrassed expression.

"You little brat!"

Lia shot a glare at Niya, then walked over to her, took her hand, and they jogged out.

Brian was the first to snap out of it, tilting his head to look at Morit, who stood beside him with an embarrassed and speechless expression.

He asked, "Ahem... this, City Lord Morit, what... what exactly is going on here?"

Guke and France also stared at him with strange looks. France's wide eyes scrutinized Morit with such curiosity that it was as if he were openly asking, "Hey! City Lord, you don't happen to have any special hobbies, do you?"

Morit felt incredibly uncomfortable under their peculiar gazes. His stern face was etched with embarrassment, dark lines appearing on his forehead as his lips twitched slightly.

He, Morit, the lord of a city, had never encountered anything so frustrating that it made him want to spit blood!

"Ahem... well... it was like this when I came in. I suppose the energy fluctuations from the backlash must have torn his clothes apart! You can see the torn clothes on the bed and the floor!"

Morit, being the lord of a city and a cultivator of profound skill, quickly regained his composure.

Hearing Morit's explanation, the three finally understood.

Brian gave Morit an apologetic smile and, without further ado, naturally steered the conversation elsewhere.

He asked, "City Lord, how is Chen Yun doing now?"

France also asked urgently, "Yeah! City Lord, is my boss okay now?"

Even Guke, who was always cold, showed a slight shift in his expression, his eyes flickering as he stared at Morit.

Morit briefly sized up Guke before turning back to Brian and saying, "You don't need to worry anymore. I observed that young brother Chen Yun's body has already recovered. Although he is still unconscious, he should wake up in a few days. Hehe!" With that, Morit also breathed a slight sigh of relief, not mentioning the strangeness of Chen Yun's condition.

Upon hearing Morit's words, the three also greatly relaxed, filled with joy. Even Guke's cold face showed a barely perceptible smile.

Brian laughed heartily, cupped his hands towards Morit, and said, "Thank you for your trouble, City Lord. Bright thanks you!"

Morit waved his hands repeatedly, "Please, don't say that. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I didn't do much. He recovered entirely on his own!"

"Oh? He recovered on his own?" Brian raised an eyebrow at this, looking at Morit with confusion.

"En! He recovered on his own. I don't understand what happened. You must have heard that dragon's roar earlier, but by the time I rushed over, the sound had already vanished, and I found nothing. When I returned here, young brother Chen Yun had already recovered."

Morit paused here, then mused, "There's something, isn't there? Before I returned to the living room, even I was helpless against the energy backlash within Chen Yun's body, but after that dragon's roar, his injuries miraculously healed. I wonder if it wasn't..."

Morit spoke with a look of confusion, then boldly speculated.

The three also guessed what Morit was implying, their faces filled with shock and uncertainty.

"Impossible! How... how could that be possible?"

Brian shook his head.

France and Guke also wore expressions of disbelief.

Seeing their reactions, Morit didn't mind. After all, it was just his own speculation.

He glanced at Brian, his eyes flickering slightly, and said to Brian, "Um... young brother, may I speak with you in private?"

"Oh?"

Brian raised an eyebrow, glanced at Morit, and nodded.

He then turned to France and Guke and said, "I'm going out with the City Lord for a moment. You two stay here and look after Chen Yun. Uh! Right, give Chen Yun this set of clothes to wear. His build is about the same as mine."

As he spoke, Brian swiped his right hand over the ring on his left index finger, and a set of luxurious clothes appeared in his hand. That ring was, unmistakably, a space ring.

Brian handed the clothes to France and then left with Morit.

Guke looked at the two walking away with a puzzled expression, while France appeared lost in thought.

"Alright, let's check on boss first!"

France was the first to snap back to reality, patting Guke's shoulder before turning to walk towards Chen Yun.

"Wow! Tsk tsk... boss's physique is simply amazing. Look at these muscles, look at these lines, how smooth!"

France exclaimed with envy, running his hand over himself as he spoke.

Guke, who followed behind, felt a line of dark sweat appear on his forehead upon hearing France's words.

Guke then looked at Chen Yun, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, breathing evenly. Two beams of light suddenly burst from his eyes, startling France, who was admiring Chen Yun with a look of infatuation.
