Chapter 1684: Awakening from the Dream
Chapter 1684: Awakening from the Dream
Is this real?Is this a dream?
A terrible nightmare!
"No, that’s not right."
Ye Xuan suddenly felt alarmed, his eyes fixed intently on the Earth, murmuring in a deep voice, "The Earth has changed, this is not the Earth it used to be!"
Indeed!
At this moment, the Earth presented before Ye Xuan’s eyes appeared the same as before, but Ye Xuan still discovered a strange new phenomenon on Earth.
It is... Qi!
A form of Qi that is hard to detect with the naked eye!
Months ago, during a team building event at the Eastern Group, Ye Xuan had once captured this Qi, nearly becoming a Qi Gong Master.
In the end, due to Ye Xiaoying’s interference, Ye Xuan has not been able to find this Qi since then.
This Qi is too elusive and ethereal, almost nonexistent, extremely mysterious!
However, on the current Earth, this Qi is extremely dense and magnificent, practically filling every corner of the world!
Ye Xuan felt a surge of emotions, confident that if he were on Earth at this moment, he could easily capture this eerie Qi and directly become a Qi Gong Master!
In a rush of excitement, Ye Xuan stood up and headed towards Earth.
Suddenly, he missed a step.
Ye Xuan’s figure seemed to jump into a black hole, falling madly.
All the scenery disappeared, endless darkness once again engulfed Ye Xuan’s entire world!
Ye Xuan’s eyes were about to burst, the continuous weightless sensation of falling made his heart involuntarily generate a terrifying emotion.
This terror magnified crazily.
Finally, Ye Xuan could no longer bear it.
"Ah!"
Ye Xuan let out a miserable cry and suddenly woke up on a hospital bed.
At once.
The whole world was quiet.
Ye Xuan opened his eyes wide, his contracted pupils filled with fear and panic, always daring and fearless, yet at this moment, he was drenched in cold sweat, nearly wetting his pants.
"I..."
Staring at the clean and bright hospital room before him, smelling the strong disinfectant odor in the hospital, Ye Xuan was dumbfounded.
Just... a dream?
This is too far-fetched, isn’t it?
"Ye Xuan?"
A gentle and pleasant caring voice came through his ear: "Ye Xuan, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
Soon, Chiba Sakurako’s stunning face appeared before Ye Xuan’s eyes.
She looked worried at that moment.
Ye Xuan was stupefied for quite a while before accepting everything, his tense body finally relaxed, and he smiled helplessly: "Yes, had a nightmare like never before, still vivid now, too absurd."
"Just a nightmare, that’s okay." Chiba Sakurako breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I just saw you sweating coldly, your face flickering between pain and fear, I thought there was a problem with your wounds."
Ye Xuan was taken aback by her words, then remembered that he had woken up in a hospital room.
Looking down at himself lying on the hospital bed, Ye Xuan questioned, "We’re in a hospital? Who sent us here?"
"After the Killing God’s death, you also collapsed. Fortunately, your phone had a signal, so I used it to call for help, and the rescue team from East City brought us to this hospital."
Chiba Sakurako patiently explained, "After arriving at the hospital, the doctors operated on you, and the bullet fragments in your body have been removed."
Speaking of this, Chiba Sakurako smiled happily, "You really have a strong fate, such serious injuries and yet survived; even the doctors here are amazed by you!"
Ye Xuan smiled, now he was sure he was still alive.
He couldn’t help but secretly wipe away a cold sweat, his wives Qiuge, Xiaoying, Yumo, Miaochan, and other beauties were still waiting for him to return home and shower them with affection. If he really died here in the Northern Federation, it would be too unfortunate.
Heaven has eyes, indeed kind!
Regaining his composure, Ye Xuan touched his nose and smiled, "This time the injuries were indeed quite serious, surviving wasn’t easy."
This was Ye Xuan’s truth.
At that time, the bullet fragments were lodged seven centimeters below his scapula, almost right next to the lungs, causing damage to his lungs every time he moved.
It’s worth knowing that before that battle, Ye Xuan’s lung had already been penetrated by a bullet!
No matter how powerful Ye Xuan is, he is still human, how could he withstand such severe organ damage?
Undoubtedly, this time’s injuries were serious enough to rank among the top three severe injuries in Ye Xuan’s entire combat career.
At the moment he lost consciousness, even Ye Xuan himself thought he was going to die.
But in the end, he survived, and the hospital that treated him probably considered this rescue a miracle, right?
"Father said that good people are safe all their lives." Chiba Sakurako smiled faintly, "You surviving is destined by heaven."
Ye Xuan nodded in agreement, "I am too kind."
Chiba Sakurako: "..."
Although she also believed so, hearing Ye Xuan say it himself felt a bit strange.
Returning to her senses, Chiba Sakurako softly said, "You’re recovering well, but the doctor said your condition is still quite serious, you need to stay in the hospital for a few more days, and recover well, don’t make too much movement, or it will be troublesome if it affects the wounds."
Ye Xuan nodded: "I know."
Chiba Sakurako paused and shook her head self-deprecatingly: "I almost forgot, you’re an excellent doctor yourself, no one understands this stuff more than you do."
Ye Xuan smiled silently.
Indeed, his current situation was quite tricky.
With bullet fragments in the body, their removal required major surgery, the aftermath of which was unavoidable, otherwise, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have left the fragments in his body to bandage and stop the bleeding that night.
Turning his gaze, Ye Xuan seemed to think of something, suddenly spoke up: "How long have I been unconscious?"
"Three days." Chiba Sakurako replied.
"Three days?" Ye Xuan was startled: "Then where’s my phone?"
"Here."
Chiba Sakurako quickly took out Ye Xuan’s phone and handed it over, saying, "But your phone is out of battery, I’ll go out and buy you a charger later."
"Alright."
Ye Xuan sighed helplessly, knowing the few treasures at home are probably worried at this point.
But there was no other choice, the ambush by the Holy Mansion in the Northern Federation was an unexpected event, Ye Xuan hadn’t anticipated it at all.
In the silence, Ye Xuan glanced at Chiba Sakurako and smiled, "How do you feel now?"
"My wound was almost treated by you already, and I’ve received nutrition injections for two days, though not fully recovered, I’m able to get out of bed and walk around." Chiba Sakurako blushed unknowingly.
It was ridiculous, hearing Ye Xuan’s casual concern, her heart somehow felt nervous and happy...
"That’s good." Ye Xuan nodded and said, "We really went through a lot together this time, hopefully, we won’t have to do it again."
"Hmm..."
Chiba Sakurako nodded slightly, but couldn’t help analyzing the meaning of Ye Xuan’s words.
He said he hopes not to go through hardships together again, does it mean he wants to distance from her, or is it just simply not wanting to deal with life and death anymore?
