Chapter 266: Hybrier

Liu Xing arrived at Ling Ishikawa's side and noticed that Ling Ishikawa appeared much wearier than before. He had a scruffy beard, and his clothes showed signs of damage and stains.

Seeing this, Liu Xing understood that Ling Ishikawa must have suffered during his time in the alternate dimension. Fortunately, Ling Ishikawa didn't appear to be injured.

Looking at the dazed expression on Ling Ishikawa's face, Liu Xing couldn't help but ask, "Ling Ishikawa, are you okay?"

It was only then that Ling Ishikawa snapped back to reality, looking shocked as he said, "Oh, I mean... Ryusei, what are you doing here? Wait, how did I come back?"

Ling Ishikawa had initially intended to address Liu Xing as "Master," but upon seeing Lu Tianya by his side, he quickly corrected himself.

However, Liu Xing could deduce from Ling Ishikawa's words that he had returned from the alternate dimension without realizing it, which explained his surprise.nove(l)bi(n.)com

Speaking of the alternate dimension, Liu Xing was quite curious about where Ling Ishikawa had been during this time. So, he couldn't resist asking, "Ling Ishikawa, where have you been all this time? I thought you weren't coming back."

Ling Ishikawa managed a weak smile and said, "How should I put it? This is quite a long story. Initially, I was transported to a pitch-black space where I encountered a Ghoul, a Deep One, a Byakhee, and a Void Spirit. It wasn't easy for me to escape that place, and I ended up in a location that exists only in legends Hybrier."

Ming Hanxing chimed in, "I don't think this is the time for casual conversation. We need to be cautious because this is the territory of the Deep Sea Gospel Society. Maybe we should head back first, and I can see that Ling Ishikawa needs some rest and recuperation."

Ming Hanxing's suggestion received unanimous support. After bidding farewell to the Red Eagle Security Company's security guards, Liu Xing and his group left the Old Teaching Building and headed to Liu Xing's home.

Initially, they had planned to leave Morimoto Academy in groups, each going their separate ways and maintaining contact through online video conferencing. Given the recent events and the fact that the Deep Sea Gospel Society had been outmaneuvered by Liu Xing's group, they expected the society to launch investigations. Therefore, staying together at this time would likely raise suspicion.

However, now Liu Xing's group had fewer concerns. The hidden camera had captured Liu Xing and Honekawa Suneo's conversation, and even though it only recorded video, the Deep Sea Gospel Society could employ experts to lip-read. Additionally, Lu Tianya mentioned that the society had a professional Taoist who had manipulated Higashi Meizi. If that Taoist were to communicate with Higashi Meizi again, she would undoubtedly reveal the recent events, making it inevitable for the society to discover Liu Xing's group.

So, they had little to fear now.

Back at Liu Xing's home, while Ling Ishikawa went to shower and change, the rest of the group settled down to discuss the day's events.

As a professional, Lu Tianya expressed some concern, "The situation is getting complicated. Higashi Meizi has been influenced by Taoist magic, and with my current abilities, I can't reverse it."
