Chapter 387: Chapter 387: Liuli Hong Breaks Away from the Seventeenth Bureau

After five Mutated Crystals, Lu Xiao’s complexion had already improved significantly.

The electric attribute that had been tearing at his organs was also being swiftly erased.

Of course, he temporarily couldn’t absorb all the superpower generated by the five Mutated Crystals into his meridians, because the quantity was just too large.

As for the superpowers that hadn’t been absorbed, there was no need to worry—Chen Fei was helping to guide them, so they wouldn’t cause any damage to his body.

"Starting today, until you reach the Fourth Rank, you’re not allowed to go out and stir up trouble," Chen Fei admonished Lu Xiao seriously.

This time, Lu Xiao was truly in grave danger.

He had almost died.

"Okay, I got it," Lu Xiao nodded after pausing for a few seconds.

Indeed, he couldn’t keep courting death; another incident like this and he might really be done for.

He had ultimately underestimated the other Mutants.

Roberts’ strength, even if facing Chen Fei, would likely result in an evenly matched fight.

If it hadn’t been for the nearly seven crystals’ worth of Mutant Ability in his meridians, there was a ninety percent chance that Roberts would have killed him on the spot.

"Then you shouldn’t go either," Lu Xiao said after thinking about it.

Given Chen Fei’s nature, she was most likely planning revenge.

Although Roberts had been driven off by him, that old guy’s injuries weren’t serious, and it would be very dangerous for Chen Fei to confront him.

After all, there were definitely more than just Roberts involved in the Divine Light Plan, probably the remaining Fourth Rankers.

If Roberts were to join forces with another two Fourth Rankers, Chen Fei’s chances of winning would be extremely slim.

"Hmm, I’ll wait until you’ve recovered, until you reach the Fourth Rank."

"Don’t worry, Lu Xiao."

Hearing Chen Fei’s somewhat absent-minded response, Lu Xiao felt helpless—this girl was good in every aspect, but just too stubborn.

She would probably still go.

Lu Xiao didn’t say more, knowing that his persuasion would certainly be futile.

Almost killed by Roberts, Chen Fei’s hatred towards Roberts had reached its peak; she might even act tonight.

"How is it now? Can you suppress the electric attribute inside your body?" After a few minutes, Chen Fei started to inquire.

"The electric attribute’s energy is not a problem, the key is that the five Mutated Crystals are too much, I can’t absorb them. Help me control them first, otherwise, I might explode," Lu Xiao said while deliberately slowing down the speed at which he was absorbing the superpowers into his meridians.

"Yeah, I’ll help you with that, absorb them as fast as you can," Chen Fei nodded and sat cross-legged next to Lu Xiao, her palm constantly on his back.

Lu Xiao turned his head to glance at Chen Fei, and seeing that she had her eyes closed, he immediately took out his phone from his pocket.

Then Lu Xiao sent a text message to Liuli Hong.

The content of the message was simple, with just two words: Come fast!

Inside of Lu Xiao’s courtyard in Hua Country, Liuli Hong was sipping tea with squinted eyes, enjoying the warm afternoon sun.

Upon noticing the vibration of his phone on the tea table, Liuli Hong couldn’t help but frown—who was this idiot bothering him now, didn’t they know it was his afternoon tea time?

About five minutes later, after finishing the tea in his cup, Liuli Hong picked up his phone.

Seeing the message from Lu Xiao, Liuli Hong was momentarily taken aback.

Although Lu Xiao had only sent two words, as the saying goes, the fewer the words, the more severe the matter.

It seemed that Lu Xiao had encountered big trouble.

Otherwise, given Lu Xiao’s personality, he wouldn’t have called on him, especially since Liuli Hong, to a certain extent, represented the Seventeenth Bureau.

After thinking for about a minute, Liuli Hong slowly stood up and dialed a number: "Arrange a trip to Meili Country for me, you have half an hour to prepare."

After hanging up, Liuli Hong called Goo Yuexing.

"Liuli, what’s up?"

"Starting today, I’m leaving the Seventeenth Bureau. Remember to issue a notice. Make sure the announcement is widespread, so that the entire Mutant circle knows about it."

What now?

Upon hearing Liuli Hong’s words, Goo Yuexing immediately lost his composure.

What was the old man thinking, leaving the Seventeenth Bureau just like that? What kind of move was this?

"Lu Xiao is in danger in Meili Country; I have to go. It’s likely that he’s gotten entangled with those people from the Divine Light Plan, especially that Roberts, very troublesome," Liuli Hong said gravely.

To be honest, he didn’t even know if he could make it there on time.

If Lu Xiao really got into a fight with those from the Divine Light Plan, perhaps by the time he arrived in Meili Country, the kid would have already been gone.

Although he had never fought with Roberts, he was aware of Roberts’ Dual Mutant Ability.

After all, the Divine Light Plan was directly established and developed by the High Court of Meili Country—it was much easier for the Seventeenth Bureau to infiltrate the High Court than the Superpower Alliance.

"Alright, I’ve removed your name, and the announcement has been made. When are you leaving?" Goo Yuexing didn’t waste any more time and acted swiftly.

Lu Xiao was the future of the Seventeenth Bureau; without Lu Xiao, the Seventeenth Bureau would likely fall back into a quagmire.

"In half an hour, on the number 7 express route."

"Okay, hit them hard," said Goo Yuexing before hanging up the phone.

The Seventeenth Bureau definitely couldn’t compete with the Superpower Alliance in terms of overall strength, not to mention a behemoth like the Divine Light Plan.

But they couldn’t just buckle under because they were outmatched, nor could they bow their heads and concede defeat simply because they were outpowered.

...

Lu Xiao had slowed down the pace of absorbing the superpowers as much as he could, but in the end, by around ten o’clock that night, he had taken all five Mutated Crystals into his meridians.

After all, he couldn’t keep dragging it out, as controlling the superpowers was also very taxing for Chen Fei.

"It’s getting late, go rest," Chen Fei said, releasing her hand and getting up upon sensing that Lu Xiao had finished absorbing the superpowers.

"And you?"

Chen Fei glanced at Lu Xiao without answering.

"Don’t go," Lu Xiao sighed, knowing well that his advice was futile but still feeling he had to give it.

"I can’t," Chen Fei shook her head lightly, "If I were beaten, if I were almost killed, you would do the same for me, wouldn’t you?"

Lu Xiao fell silent.

Yes, if Chen Fei were beaten to the point of vomiting blood, to the brink of death, he would probably be even crazier and more extreme than her.

"Come back soon."

"I will."
