Chapter 262: Treatment, Worries, and Reports
Everyone at 'the Mansion' kind of relaxed when they got the news that Tianlong Yun had been rescued, even though they weren't able to see or meet him because he was in intensive care.
Doctor Song and Tianlong Xia were at his head, taking care, and treating him. Actually, Doctor Song was there just as Tianlong Xia's assistant because he had no idea how to treat him.
When he first saw the condition of Tianlong Yun he thought that this man was done for. But Tianlong Xia seemed to have relaxed quite a bit from the anxious beast she had been moments ago.
All this time she had given him some weird translucent liquid, and some herbs that didn't seem that special.
He was truly curious to know what she was using on him, but he never had the moment to do such a thing, especially when he saw Tianlong Xia cut her wrist and passing her blood to him.
For a moment he thought that Tianlong Xia had gone crazy and that she was trying to kill herself when she did that.
But her face didn't show any sign of depression or negativity, quite on the contrary she seemed relieved and concentrated on what she was doing.
While everyone was happy that Tianlong Yun had returned alive, there were a few sad faces in their midst because Gao Ling and Qin Bao hadn't been found.
Especially between the shadows, Gao Ling had been like their big sister, they all heard her words and treated her like that.
But now she was not found, they were worried about her. If Tianlong Yun's situation was like that, then what could have happened to them?
They were all worried about her, but no one would move from their place without getting permission or an order from Tianlong Xia.
Everyone knew the chain of command, inside the Clan, and no one dared to even think about breaking it or acting on their own.
So, even though they might be worried or sad, they all continued to do what they had to do.
While the Shadow Clan was holding their breath to know what had happened to Gao Ling and Qin Bao, the town was buzzing by what had happened.
It wasn't every day that they felt such a powerful earthquake happen so close to them, shaking the whole city, and then the government sealing the place.
Everyone had their own conspiracy theories on this event. Some said that the government was experimenting with some new weapons.
Some said that it was the work of some powerful beings hidden in the forest, and some said it was Aliens that had embarked on Earth.
As for the people that truly knew what had happened there, were in important meetings discussing the happenings, and the result of the exploration.
But there were no happy faces, all these people had long and sad faces. Today each and any one of them had come out of that place as losers.
The only ones who could be said to have won something were the Royalists and the Orientalists, who got the shield and the sword from the third eye array.
They were still discussing a deal between each other, but the outline was already settled, the Orientalists would keep the Shield while offering some materials and money as compensation.
In the same tier, weapons of protection would always cost more than the attacking ones, and this wasn't an exception. The reason was simple, it was harder to craft protection weapons.
Even though they were in a way winners of this inheritance cave exploration, they weren't happy at all. They had lost too many people in there, powerful enough to matter in their ranks.
To think that the inheritance was taken away by some anonymous chap, that no one had the tiniest idea of who it was.
They had paid such a huge price to enter that place and in the end, it was taken away from their hands.
Not to mention that skeleton dressed b*tch and the damages she had caused to them, by killing their people. They had managed to escape only at the sacrifice of so many lives.
Old Luo and Master Jiao Wen were fuming at the moment. This trip had cost them far too much.
But while their current situation was like that, one could only imagine what was happening with Young Master Qing Fang, and Master Ming Tong.
They not only lost a lot of people in this inheritance exploration but at the same time they weren't able to gain anything from it.
The forging and crafting manual had been taken by the skeleton woman and her group, the inheritance was taken by someone that even they didn't know who it was.
And for the first time in their lives, they had taken the scare of their lives. They had felt for the first time what it meant to be terrified, and to people like them, that was critical damage hit.
Even at this moment that they needed to report to their superiors about what happened, you could still see that terrified look on their eyes, as if their souls had left their bodies.
Especially for Young Master Qing Fang, this was the first time in his life, that he was taking part in such a thing.
He had been lauded as a genius of the Qing Family and one that would go far in cultivation, that's why he had been given the opportunity to lead the team.
It was meant to be a building block of experience and prestige for him, in the organization, and in his family.
But now, that his grandfather was looking at his terrified face, he regretted his decision. Maybe it had been too soon for his dear, talented nephew to lead this exploration.
He wanted to help him, but he could do that only if he told him what had happened in there. What kind of encounters did he have in there?
He had always doted on this nephew of his, from the moment that he learned that he was a genius. He represented the bright future of their family after all.
With that thought in mind, he approached him slowly, turned his face towards him, and said in a gentle voice,
Qing Patriarch:" Fang'er tell grandfather, what happened in there? What scared you so much?"
Qing Fang was a bit startled at the touch of his grandfather, he was still trembling and shaking, but looking at the concerned look of his grandfather he managed to stumble a few words,
Qing Fang:" Black Beast Hu..hungry Kill De..destroy!"
But while he said those words, he was reminded of that look once again and started trembling and shivering once again.
His grandfather, on the other hand, couldn't make sense of his words, they seemed more like the words of a mental person.
The only words that kind of made sense were 'black beast' anything else seemed like the delirious words of a crazy person.
Seeing that there wasn't much he could learn from his grandson, he placed his hand on his forehead and used his Qi to make him unconscious.
He had to take control of the situation right now and keep this condition of his grandson a secret. Otherwise, the games for power in his family would get puffed up once again.
Differently from Young Master Qing Fang though, Master Ming Tong had a lot of experience, and while this terrified him, he managed to somewhat gather himself and explain everything to his boss.
What was surprising though, was that his boss was just a young man in his twenties. He didn't seem like an oriental person, no he was a typical western young man.
He was tall and straight, with blonde hair and green to blue eyes. His ears were a bit big and pointy, which was also what immediately caught the attention when someone looked at his face.
His suit was tight, so tight that you could make sense of his body. Even though from the face he looked like a nerd, his body belonged to someone who trained a lot.
Hearing Master Ming Tong's report, the blonde guy seemed to be deep in his thoughts. Ming Tong was one of the best agents of the organization and had no reason to lie.
But what he said about that charcoal black beast, the feeling it gave to him, and everything that happened outside the inheritance cave, was almost unbelievable.
Looking at Ming Tong straight in the eye, he could see the guy still hadn't totally recollected himself and said,
Blonde Boss:" So what you mean, is that not only there is a new organization that came out of the shadows, wanting to wipe us all, but they also have such a trump card in their hands!?"
One thing that immediately caught someone's attention, when he spoke, was his long and pointy canine teeth.
Yes, he was a vampire apparently!
Master Ming Tong didn't seem surprised by this though, he just thought for a moment, and then said,
Ming Tong:" I think it would be safe to consider it like that Boss, and we shouldn't forget that by what I could see they have the same man-power or more than us.
Not to forget that they might have their moles planted all over the place, I don't think I need to remind you of that guy Li Qi, he had a high position in the Orientalists, but he was just a mole.
We need to be extra careful from now on. I think that first, we should clean our house, before trying to find something about them.
Also, we should not forget that the forging and crafting Manual is in their hands. They were able to take it from us and EITS, this alone should prove their abilities."
The blonde Boss seemed to enter into much deeper thoughts, if there was one thing he had learned all these years with Ming Tong, was that this guy never talked empty words.
Then remembering something he said
