Chapter 244 - Waking Up

The dark night covered the stars, and there was only a shimmering new moon shining on the silent Blood Hunter Manor.

“Whiz…”

There seemed to be several figures along with a breeze appearing inside the manor.

“Crack—”

Edward slowly opened the door, and then Catherine stuck her head out to look around with him. After confirming that no one was there, they nodded at each other and said, “Hmm.”

Then, they exited and spoke discreetly, “Boss, they’re all asleep. Come in!”

“Okay.”

Wang Bugui nodded and then stepped in, with Changge on his left shoulder and Lyu Hao on the other. Chu He followed him in, with Feng Tianming on his back.

“You’re finally back.”

Suddenly, after they sneaked in, a familiar voice sounded, which made the fine hair of Wang Bugui and the others stand up in shock. They all jumped a step back.

Looking closely, they found that the approaching people were Kathy and Lyon.

“Whew!”

Wang Bugui breathed a long sigh of relief, asking, “You haven’t slept yet? It’s so late now.”

“We can’t fall asleep. We’re here waiting for you…”

Kathy walked down the stairs slowly. But after seeing them clearly, she suddenly covered her mouth with her hands and was robbed of her ability to speak.

What a terrible scene she saw! All the hunters were seriously wounded, and even three of them were covered with blood all over their bodies, still unconscious.

The fatal wounds on their bodies were clearly visible, which was worse than split skin and battered flesh.

Their flesh and bones were almost separated. Those wounds were either bone-deep chop wounds or horrible blood holes!

Kathy and Lyon then turned to look at Wang Bugui. Wang Bugui forced a smile. But Kathy could see clearly that his body was covered with visible cracks, and the left side of his face was almost all broken!

“What have you guys experienced?!” Kathy cried, covering her mouth. Her eyes were already filled with tears.

“Sorry to make you worry. Is Elsa still asleep?” Wang Bugui said guiltily.

He had promised the little girl that he wouldn’t return with a serious injury. But it turned out to be this way now. He didn’t want to see that cute little girl cry again, so he had to come back quietly without alarming her.

Kathy shook her head and replied, “Elsa didn’t wake up. She had been crying and praying for you before she fell asleep. How sad would she be if she saw this?”

“I…”

Wang Bugui felt like his heart was hit with a heavy hammer. It turned out that the little girl had been worried about them. But they still came back so embarrassingly.

“Miss, I think they’ve done their best. This battle gathered all the Infantes. You should be glad they’re able to come back safely,” Leon advised.

“But, can this be called safely? I really… don’t want to see you suffer such serious injuries. I’m afraid that one day you’ll…”

As Kathy spoke, the teardrops in her eyes broke through the last line of defense, falling down one after another.

“Sorry, we were still too careless. But after this lesson, we’ll grow, and the pain will be less in the future.”

Wang Bugui apologized, showed a warm smile like that of a neighborly big brother, and said, “I promise!”

“I believe your promise. Please don’t make us worry after you leave.” Kathy wiped her tears, speaking brokenly.

Only in front of Wang Bugui and his fellows did she act this way, like a little girl. She usually behaved like an adult to manage the Hunters’ Union.

Only in this group of people and in this place could she allow herself to drop her mask and show the real her, because she liked everything in the Blood Hunter Manor and everyone here.

“Okay, we’ll become stronger, and we won’t be so embarrassed the next time we meet the Infantes!” Wang Bugui clenched his fists and then turned his head back, throwing a look at the other members of the Blood Moon Hunters.

“Uh, right, right!”

“Yes!”

“We’ll definitely suppress them next time!”

The people behind Wang Bugui, headed by Chu He, all pandered one after another and then smiled.

“Treat them first. Don’t delay too long. If they don’t wake up tomorrow, Elsa will definitely be worried.”

Wang Bugui put Changge and Lyu Hao down. Chu He also followed suit and placed Feng Tianming on the ground.

“Chihiro, come here too. You’re also seriously injured.” Wang Bugui waved his hand.

“Okay.” Misawa Chihiro nodded.

She walked over to Feng Tianming, sat down, grasped his hand tightly, and asked, “Can you really heal them?”

“Don’t worry. My Heaven Mending Technique can cure every injury.”

Wang Bugui comforted her and then began to cast martial arts, reciting the ancient incantation. He released brilliant golden lights around him, and a peaceful five-colored energy slowly came out from his hands.

These lights shrouded the four people on the ground. Then, Wang Bugui enhanced his strength again to activate it, and the injuries of the four people were being healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“Buzz!”

The peaceful lights shone around, and even those who were not being healed felt that their injuries had recovered after the lights touched them.

And the wounds of the four people were disappearing rapidly, as well as the internal injuries in their bodies. Their broken bones were set again, viscera repaired, and meridians reconnected.

“Whew!”

After a while, Wang Bugui stopped, and the lights slowly faded away. All the wounds of the four on the ground were gone. The others could even hear Lyu Hao’s snoring sound. He was sleeping soundly.

“Finally…” Wang Bugui turned pale and smiled comfortably. But the next moment, he felt a sudden sweetness in his throat.

“Puff!”

A mouthful of blood burst out from his mouth. Then, a severe pain invaded his whole body. The cracks on his body widened at this moment.

Then, his vision began to blur and he could see nothing. Finally, his eyes closed and he fell to the ground.

“Boss!”

Seeing this, Chu He and the others were horrified. They rushed over to lift him up and immediately sent spiritual power to heal him. What they worried about most was Wang Bugui’s forbidden art injury, which had lasted for so long.

It was completely displayed almost from the beginning of the battle. As a forbidden art, the Eight Limits Universal Order was known as the greatest taboo of human beings. To use it in a battle was the same as to use life.

Now the counterattack had completely erupted. They didn’t know if Wang Bugui’s life would be threatened.

“What’s wrong with Brother Bugui? Why would he be like this?” Kathy rushed to him and wailed.

After checking via martial arts, Leng Yueyan said with a frown, “His heartbeat is very weak, and the prana in his body is disordered. Except for the heart, all his other internal organs are completely destroyed. They are forcibly glued together by the Supplementary Method.

“Half of his bones are broken, and they are almost shattered into broken bits! Even the bones that look good had all been repaired!”

Hearing that, Kathy couldn’t stop her tears from falling.

“Oh my God! Is that an injury that a human can bear? No! Why is he so hurt?” Kathy cried bitterly.

“I believe in the boss. He will be fine, but he won’t be able to wake up in the upcoming days.” Leng Yueyan comforted her.

Chu He also nodded when he heard the words, and said, “Kathy, go back to rest first. We’ll take care of boss. He’ll wake up in a few days.”

“Really?” Kathy dried her tears and asked.

“When did we Blood Moon Hunters lie to you?” Chu He smiled confidently.

“Yes, we believe in boss!”

Edward smiled with a victory gesture. Seeing that, Catherine also nodded with a smile. “Boss is an immortal. Have you ever seen an immortal die so easily? He’ll wake up in a few days!”

“Miss, aren’t they the people you trust the most? So, please trust them, too, this time.” Lyon also leaned over to persuade her.

Seeing that, Kathy finally got up and said coyly, “I trust you guys. May Brother Wang Bugui wake up sooner.”

Then, accompanied by Lyon, she returned to her room to rest. Chu He and the others settled all the unconscious people before returning to their rooms to rest.

The following day, the vitality in the manor reappeared in the sun, and everything was awake.

It was exceptionally quiet this day. Leng Yueyan came to the balcony early. She ran her fingers across the potted rose plant, and the dewdrops slowly fell into her hands.

Then, she smiled at the roses. Due to either the flowers having sense or her really being as beautiful as a fairy, the roses bloomed more beautifully.

She then sat in the sunshine to practice. On the next balcony, Ning Zhe also started his morning practice.

“Zzzzz!”

However, in another room, Lyu Hao was sleeping soundly. But his thunderous snoring awakened Zhao Changge.

“Oh—my gosh!”

Zhao Changge touched his head and woke up. When he opened his eyes, the sunlight just pierced into his eyes. He immediately covered his eyes, saying, “Hiss! Oh, my head hurts, so do my eyes.”

Then, when he saw the snoring Lyu Hao beside him, he kicked him and said, “Hey, get up. You woke me up. Don’t want to continue to sleep!”

“Thump!”

He kicked Lyu Hao to the ground directly. With an “ouch”, Lyu Hao touched his head and got up from the ground.

“What happened? An earthquake?” He was confused.

“The injuries last night… Are you okay?” Zhao Changge muttered.

“Yes. Ei, we’re not dead yet!” Lyu Hao realized after looking at his body.

Zhao Changge smacked his lips, saying, “What rubbish, could you still be here if you were dead? We were so badly injured yesterday, and are recovered today. It should be boss who saved us.”

“Then where’s boss? And how’s Tianming?” Lyu Hao asked, touching his head. …

“I don’t know. Let’s go out and have a look. It’s lunchtime now. We’ve slept for a really long time.”

Zhao Changge suddenly got up and went out of the room with Lyu Hao to look for the others.
