A Man from Beyond the Heavens: Lian Yu
The man took the Eye of the Heavenly God, and before even examining it, said, "You may call me Lian Yu."
Su Zhan replied, "Okay."
Su Zhan didn't understand at first why the other person suddenly said that.
It wasn't until Lian Yu was examining True Man Lin Lie that he realized the other party was trying to curry favor with him.
Lian Yu was not surprised when he received the Eye of the Heavenly God, obviously because he had already discovered that Su Zhan was carrying this thing when he was investigating earlier.
He probed it with his Divine Sense, and the Eye of the Heavenly God, having received Su Zhan's instructions, did not resist him.
Lian Yu glanced around, his eyes widening in disbelief. "It was him! He's the one who injured you all. It seems I have no choice but to save you."
Su Zhan asked, "Senior, what do you mean? Were you also injured by the Wuji Sword Saint back then?"
Lian Yu looked as if he had heard a joke, his disgust barely concealed in his eyes, and said, "He's a complete idiot, Wuji Sword Saint!"
"He's nothing but a despicable beast. He tricked me back then, injured me, and stole a portion of my Spirit Energy, which is how he gained his current strength."
"His arrogance and ignorance are laughable. How could he possibly refine my power? He must have been tormented by my power all these years, constantly at risk of exploding and dying. How did you manage to offend him?"
Lian Yu's tone softened considerably, clearly indicating that he now considered Su Zhan one of his own; the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Su Zhan began, "He has now formed an organization called the Heavenly Mystery Sect, and it's quite powerful. Recently, they've been eyeing the Eye of the Heavenly God on my body, harassing me repeatedly."
"We were thoroughly annoyed, so we went to the Heavenly Mystery Sect for revenge, only to find that they were hiding such a master. It was only thanks to my companion's self-destruction that we were safe."
Lian Yu: "I am suffering here day and night, while he is living a carefree and happy life over there. This is outrageous!"
Lian Yu looked at Su Zhan and said, "This time I can save this person, but you must remember, you must kill that person! Avenge me, and avenge your friend!"
Su Zhan said firmly, "That's for sure!"
Lian Yu: "I never imagined that there would actually be people in this world willing to sacrifice themselves to save others. It seems you are different from the humans I imagined."
Su Zhan felt a pang of pain in his heart as he recalled Jiang Shiyue's self-destructive act.
Fortunately, he did not completely disappear. Once he recovers, I can create Avatar for him, which can be considered another way of continuing his Life Element.
Lian Yu lowered the Eye of the Heavenly God: "I examined his injuries. Besides those inflicted by that beast, some were from withstanding the aftershocks of the explosion."
"You handled it very well. This treasure is rare, and you successfully saved his life. However, his recovery won't be completed in a day or two; he'll need to stay with me for a while."
"You should come with him. With your current strength, you certainly can't take revenge on him."
Su Zhan nodded, surprised that the other party was actually willing to let him go along.
Judging from Lian Yu's attitude, he must have an extreme aversion to humans and a very strong sense of territory, disliking others stepping out of his territory.
Before Su Zhan could make a move, Lian Yu suddenly moved closer and touched Su Zhan's forehead with two fingers together.
Instantly, a surge of frenzied power rushed into Su Zhan's body. His entire body was stunned by this power, rendering him unable to move.
His brain was throbbing with pain, as if something had been forcibly injected into it, making him dizzy and lightheaded.
They held that position for a full two minutes.
During this time, an extremely large amount of Mental Power flowed into Su Zhan's body through Lian Yu's fingers.
Although it was only a short two minutes, Su Zhan felt as if he had lived for thousands of years. This feeling was something he never wanted to experience again.
It's so painful!
If Lian Yu hadn't forcefully suppressed his reaction, he probably would have launched a furious counterattack.
That feeling of my head being about to explode was truly terrifying!
Lian Yu said, "Back then, that person damaged a lot of my power. Even if some remains, I can't transfer it to you because of my physical condition."
"I can only transfer a portion of my Mental Power to you for now; this should help you rapidly increase your Mental Power."
"I see you seem to have some skill in this area, but your mastery is lacking. Perhaps the Cultivation Method here are too outdated."
Su Zhan just nodded blankly. The throbbing pain in his head hadn't subsided, making it impossible for him to think clearly. He just did whatever Lian Yu said.
The Moon Beast silently thought to itself that with Lian Yu's profound accumulation of knowledge, even the strongest individuals from tens of thousands of years ago when their Mental Power was at its peak would probably be nothing but trash in his eyes.
Su Zhan's Mental Power cultivation is actually quite good, especially in this era, he can be considered one of the best.
Su Zhan followed Lian Yu to his residence in a daze, then lost consciousness and fainted.
He managed to stay awake until he reached this point, which required immense self-control.
If Lian Yu hadn't reinforced his mental defenses, adjusted the input speed, and Sealing Formation a large portion of his power during the transmission, his head would probably have exploded from the strain.
Lian Yu is not a real human, so he doesn't need to build houses or anything like that.
He only needs to wave his hand to create an energy ball that suits him, and then merge into it to cultivate.
It's convenient for both defense and retreat, and simple and comfortable. But not for Su Zhan; his flesh and blood body can only lie on the ground now.
It was already a great favor that Lian Yu brought him here, and it was impossible for him to take care of him.
In the end, only the Moon Beast circled around him, trying to figure out how to make him more comfortable.
But after thinking it over, he couldn't find a solution. He could only transfer his own power into Su Zhan's body to help him calm his disordered Spirit Energy and adjust his physical condition.
Su Zhan slept for three days and three nights. When he woke up again, his body was stiff and numb. He looked around and it took about a minute for his eyes to regain focus.
Several more minutes passed before I remembered where I was and why I was there.
Turning her head again, she saw the Moon Beast's disheveled and worried face. She said, "You're finally awake! If you hadn't woken up, I would have thought you were dead. You can't die. We still have a great grudge to avenge, and True Man Lin Lie needs someone to save him."
Seeing his mournful face, Su Zhan became extremely annoyed and slapped him aside.
He stretched his arms and legs, intending to stand up.
However, he lost control and, instead of standing up, he was sent flying three meters into the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
His mind went even more blank. What was going on?
