Chapter 288: 294 Hillmelia

294 Hillmelia
Sword Saint Snowfall.

When Kang De heard this, his heart sank again. Before Hong San came to Valentine, he had once met Sword Saint Snowfall and Tina. If he confirmed the other party’s identity, there was no mistake.

He took a deep breath and felt the blood in his body boil. He recalled Tina’s letter. The princess had said in it that she wanted him to stay well in Valentine. She would come to see him…

Now, Sword Saint Snowfall was seriously injured and unconscious, lying in front of him…

“What the f*ck is going on?”

He looked at Cassandra. It was this Belloran who had discovered her when he was patrolling on an eagle. Kang De stared at her and asked. His tone and expression were calm, but this was terrifying.

He had spent an unforgettable and torturous period on the Holy Seal Islands, encountered the Incident of Glory Sand, and experienced the Battle of Valentine. Now, Kang De’s mental characteristics were even more obvious. He was as still as a mountain in the face of a huge matter, but under his calm and cold appearance, he suppressed the raging flames that were as violent as a volcano.

Even the heroic and powerful Cassandra was shocked and said uneasily, “I don’t know…”

She told him about their encounter from the beginning to the end.

There was no useful information. She did not know what battle the other party had encountered, who the other party had fought, or how Tina was now.

Kang De said coldly, “Wake her up first. How are her injuries?”

Hong San’s tone was calm, “I’ve checked her pulse. Her injuries are not serious, but they’re very strange. Her battle aura has been repairing the injuries and losses in her body, but there’s a strange foreign energy surging in her body…”

“Let me see!”

Kang De’s eyes suddenly turned into brilliant flames that swept across Sword Saint Snowfall’s body. He used the secret technique taught by Tagris to find the strange energy. Then, his expression changed.

“This is not the power of this world… This energy comes from outer space!”

Cassandra looked confused, but Hong San immediately understood, “A power from outer space… In other words, Sword Saint Snowfall is fighting the enemy from outer space!”

“Yes.” Kang De gritted his teeth and said, “D*mn, they actually bumped into each other!”

Then Tina…

In the letter, Tina said that she would come to Valentine. On the way south, she encountered a powerful enemy from outer space and a battle happened. Only Sword Saint Snowfall escaped seriously injured and came here to ask for help…

When he thought of this, he was anxious, but a certain part of his heart heaved a sigh of relief. The person who had attacked was an enemy from outer space, not an elf. After all, Tagris had not lied to him.

Then, next…

“We have to be prepared to fight. The other party will come… Or rather, we have to find them!” Kang De turned to look at Hong San, “Can you save her?”

Hong San looked ashamed, “Medicine is not something I can practice. My cultivation is limited, and I don’t have enough ability to forcefully remove or dispel this power…”

“Dispel…”

Kang De’s heart stirred slightly as he clenched his fists, “Let me try. Hong San, make a secret trip and find the elves. Invite Tagris over…”

Hong San did not move.

Kang De glanced at him. “What’s wrong?”

“Your Highness, try first,” Hong San replied. “If there’s really no other way, we’ll look for the elves. If you can wake Sword Saint Snowfall up alone, we have to at least ask some questions first.”

Kang De frowned. “What do you mean? Do you suspect the elves? But…”

Hong San bowed and said, “I know Your Highness’s worried mood very well, but please point out that the more anxious something is, the calmer you have to be. You’re not calm enough now and are less careful than usual.”

He turned around and strode to the Goethe map hanging in the room. He stretched out his hand and pointed. “Your Highness, please take a look. From the location of Princess Tina’s camp in the northern province to the Harlem District where Cassandra discovered the whereabouts of the Sword Saint, how far is it? When did Ulysses leave the northern camp and return to Valentine? How long did it take Ulysses to travel day and night from the northern camp to Valentine?”

Kang De no longer had the patience to think carefully. “Tell me the conclusion!”

“Yes,” Hong San replied. “The conclusion is that with the strength and speed of the Sword Saint, it’s naturally enough to cross the elf-occupied area and arrive near Valentine in such a short period of time. However, if she brought Princess Tina and even many followers and guards, she definitely can’t do it! Even if the Sword Saint accompanied the princess and the others and was ambushed by a powerful enemy from outer space very close to the camp and broke out alone to travel a long distance here, she can’t do it! Her injuries can’t support a long distance, let alone being chased by the enemy!”

“In other words, the Sword Saint came alone!”

He turned around and looked at the map with a dark gaze. He calculated intensely in his heart and hesitated for a moment before saying, “In fact, I only roughly estimated it, but still…”

Kang De tried to calm down and focus on the map. He had no experience in mathematical calculations like marching speed and estimating distance because this also required military attainment and experience. However, although he could not calculate it, he was willing to believe Hong San’s intuition, judgment, and doubt.

“He came alone…” he said. “Tina has already asked Ulysses to bring back a reply. Just now… why did Sword Saint Snowfall make a trip alone?”

“According to Cassandra, before Sword Saint Snowfall fainted, she only held your name and wanted to see you. She looked very anxious.” Hong San was silent for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, “This is the reason why we have to try our best to wake her up alone. This is the reason why we won’t inform the elves for the time being!”

Kang De was silent, then walked to the bed.

His Phoenix Vision activated. He reached out and pressed his hands on Sword Saint Snowfall’s lower abdomen before closing his eyes.

The powerful mental strength of the Fire Thief condensed into threads that entered the other party’s body bit by bit. His mental strength spread out and continuously enveloped the other party’s entire body. Every detail was reflected in his mind and sensed.

It was revealed in detail.

However, Kang De did not have any other thoughts at this moment. The unconscious Sword Saint Snowfall seemed to frown. His powerful mental strength entered the other party’s body and searched for the churning and impacting foreign energy.

The Fire Thief could extract everything, naturally including energy. The most ideal state was to lock onto the strange energy that wreaked havoc in Sword Saint Snowfall’s body with his mental strength and extract it.

It was also what Hong San had said about forcefully dispelling this power.

Of course, this was only the optimal situation in the theoretical state. After all, he had never tried with his mental strength to lock onto a powerful force that was clearly not to be trifled with.

However, after practice, he discovered that this was actually much easier than he had imagined.

When his mental strength touched that powerful energy, Kang De could even sense the fear displayed by this energy. That energy seemed to have a mind and fled from Kang De’s mental tentacles in fear. However, the space it flowed in was only a body. How could it dodge the obstruction?

Locked and extracted.

In an instant, he sensed the fear and despair of the strange energy. A huge and mysterious energy surged into his body like a torrent and he could not resist. It was as if cows and sheep faced lions and tigers as if it was a predatory relationship engraved on the food chain. Food would always be food.

This strange energy from outer space was firmly restrained by the power of the Fire Thief.

Moreover…

Kang De felt this energy surge into his body. The other party could not be extracted into elements, but he perfectly absorbed and controlled it. He was very familiar with this power because a few months ago, a similar energy surged into his body and became the key to opening the door.

“This power is…” Kang De muttered, “Divine power…”

Just like the cursed sword that Lost had stabbed him with, the power of the gods finally completed the scale structure of the Earth—the white fog world—the other world. It was a special power that was enough to penetrate three worlds.

In an instant, the divine power was absorbed by Kang De like rivers returning to the sea. It obediently submitted in his body. With a thought, it could automatically circulate and be injected into any item or anywhere at any time.

At the same time, the woman lying on the bed suddenly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were the same as Tina’s. They were as beautiful as the blue sky, but they were also different from Tina’s. Tina’s eyes were like a quiet and gentle lake, but Sword Saint Snowfall’s eyes were as cold as the sky of a snow mountain.

Kang De’s hands were still pressed on the other party’s soft abdomen.

The sudden fallout and subconscious attack he had expected did not happen. The other party’s expression was calm. The peerless Sword Saint perfectly controlled her body and would definitely not act on instinct.

She saw Kang De’s Cathayan outfit and iconic short hair at first, Hong San at the side at the second, and Cassandra, whom she had encountered earlier on the other side, at the third. She immediately understood her situation and lay on the bed, sensing her injuries and looking at Kang De’s face.

“Are you Kang De?” she said. “I’m Hillmelia Tedrell, Tina’s aunt.”

Kang De was shocked by the divine power he had just obtained and was judging the relationship between the guests from outer space and the gods. For a moment, he did not recover. When he heard this, he was stunned for a moment before saying, “Hello.”

“Thank you for saving Tina. Thank you for helping Goethe. Thank you for saving me—that’s what I wanted to say.”

Sword Saint Snowfall’s gaze landed on Kang De’s hands that were still pressed on her lower abdomen. The touch was a little strange. It was numb and hot. Were all men’s hands so hot?

Then, she asked, “But let me ask first—is the treatment process not over?”

Only then did Kang De come back to his senses and retract his hand as if he had been electrocuted. “Oh, it’s over.”

He put the divine power and so on to the back of his mind for the time being because there were more important things at hand. “Who attacked you? Where’s Tina? Is she okay?”

“Of course, Tina is very safe. I came alone, so there’s no need to worry.” The Sword Saint looked at Kang De’s expression and smiled for the first time. She even teased, “Are you very worried about your fiancée? This is a good thing.”

She was in the mood to joke, which meant that it was not a big deal. Kang De was relieved.

He reached out to help the other party up and said to Cassandra, “Thank you for tonight, but I still have to ask you to keep the matter of the Sword Saint a secret for the time being. Stay here tonight.”

Cassandra knew that he was chasing her away. She bowed slightly to Kang De and went out under Hong San’s lead. Hong San called the butler who was waiting at the side and instructed him to arrange for Cassandra’s quarters. He also instructed the kitchen to heat up some broth and noodles and arrange them inside and out.

In the house, Sword Saint Snowfall was helped up by Kang De. Hillmelia looked at Hong San’s back and frowned, “He looks very different from before. Is it the same person?”

“People change eventually. Sword Saint, you know this better than anyone, right?”

Kang De brought over a chair and sat down in front of the other party. “You might want to rest or eat now, but there’s something equally important. Who attacked you? Where is he now?”

Sword Saint Snowfall recalled the fierce battle that had come out of nowhere. It was really a powerful enemy she had never seen in his life. At this moment, when she recalled it, she subconsciously revealed a serious expression… That short and intense battle determined whether she lived or died.

It shocked her, frightened her, and made her feel honored.

Wasn’t the honor of a warrior to kill a powerful enemy and obtain victory on the line of life and death?!

Therefore, she raised her chin slightly. “I don’t know who the other party is, but I’ve already killed him!”

Kang De was shocked. “You killed them all?”

“All?” Hillmelia said in surprise, “There are others?”

Kang De was also shocked. “There’s no one else?”

The two of them stared at each other in shock.

Sword Saint Snowfall was shocked that there was actually more than one such powerful guy.

As for Kang De…

—There’s really only one person? You only sent one person to deal with a human nuclear bomb like this? You’re too f*cking arrogant, b*stards! It’s very embarrassing to know, b*stard!

Everyone was like this.

Before the other party came, he calculated on tenterhooks, afraid that the other party would come more. Then, he discovered that only one of them had come, and he had even been killed by Sword Saint Snowfall midway. He felt unhappy that he had been underestimated.

“Wait…”

Sword Saint Snowfall calmed down. Be it combat techniques, abilities, martial techniques, or the like, the person who controlled the wind and fought her earlier had never seen them before. They had even never appeared on the continent. At the very least, she had never heard of them… Where did they come from?

She asked, “You know who he is?”

“I know a little… but it’s very complicated to say.” Kang De’s tone was subtle, “I have to thank you. He’s probably here for me and was killed by you. As expected of Sword Saint Snowfall.”

When Sword Saint Snowfall heard this, she frowned slightly and said, “There’s no need to thank me. You’re Tina’s husband and have helped Goethe a lot. We’re family. It’s nothing to kill the enemy for you. Moreover, you don’t have to thank me. That guy was quite injured earlier…”

“…Hmm?”

What? Could it be that before this, there were still heroes who jumped out to beat them up?

Kang De was even more puzzled.

It seemed there were really many enthusiastic citizens in the other world.

He asked for the details and Sword Saint Snowfall told him.

“I sensed signs of a large-scale battle and discovered that it was still territory controlled by Goethe. Worried that the battle would change, I went to check. Then, I discovered an expert riding a violent wind slaughtering a 200 to 300-strong Goethe army. By the time I arrived, the last few soldiers had already been killed.”

“When I saw this situation, I was naturally extremely angry. However, after that person discovered me, he was even angrier than me. He shouted something like, ‘So there’s an ambush here, but you’re late’, and then he began to attack. I fought him, and he discovered that I was not easy to deal with and wanted to leave, but he killed so many Goethe people. How could I let him escape? In the end, he fought seriously…”

Sword Saint Snowfall skipped the process of the battle with a few words. However, it was obvious that it was definitely an unprecedented tragic battle and she had almost died.

In the end, Hillmelia killed the other party, but she was struck by the other party’s last strike. The powerful foreign energy that was difficult to resolve surged in her body. She endured the pain and suppressed her injuries. In the end, she encountered Cassandra…

At this point, she sighed, “Speaking of which, he was injured by someone previously. When dealing with that Goethe team, he consumed a lot of energy. Looking at the scene, it was clearly a bitter battle. In the end, when he encountered me, he only had about 60 to 70% of his combat strength left. That’s why I killed him at a small price. If he was in his peak state, the outcome would really be unpredictable…”

Kang De comforted him, “A win is a win. You don’t have to be conflicted about this. He was beaten up earlier because he deserved a beating. You also won fair and square. Otherwise, in fairness, he cultivated many years earlier than you. Is that unfair?”

Hillmelia glanced at him and smiled, “Your words are nice. No wonder Tina likes them. Don’t worry, I won’t be conflicted because of this. Even if the other party is not at his peak, killing such a powerful enemy is still worth bragging about and will bring me great comprehension and improvement…”

At this point, she sighed again, “However, who was the person who easily injured him earlier? Moreover, I fought with him as we walked, and was already far from the battlefield. After winning, my injuries were difficult to suppress and I was in a hurry to find you. Those Goethe soldiers who sacrificed themselves could not restrain themselves in time…”

Kang De was sad. These Goethe soldiers had also helped him block the bullet. He comforted them, “It’s fine. I’ll invite people over now to collect their corpses. Sigh, they’re also very powerful. Such a powerful enemy can actually fight with them for a period of time. They’re true warriors…”

Sword Saint Snowfall frowned when she heard this, “Wait… That’s right, I was wondering why I kept feeling that something was wrong—the area near Harlem is occupied by the elves. How can there be such a powerful Goethe elite team operating? I’ve never heard of such elite strength.”

The two of them looked at each other again. Doubt flashed through Kang De’s heart, but he still said, “Point at the location and find their bodies. Your doubts can be solved. Now, you can rest first… Right, speaking of which, why are you here? When will Tina be here?”

Sword Saint Snowfall said in surprise, “Tina has already arrived at the Red Maple City. I’m here to pick you up.”

Kang De was stunned. “Didn’t she say that she was coming? She changed her schedule? What about the diplomatic mission?”

Hillmelia was even more surprised. “When did she say that she was coming to Valentine? Didn’t you say that you were going to Red Maple City? Therefore, we returned to the capital first…”

“But she said in her letter that I should stay in Valentine and wait for her to come…”

Kang De’s voice became softer and softer.

His eyes met Sword Saint Snowfall’s, and their expressions gradually changed.
