Yan Muling, who was about to leave the trading hall, stopped and turned around.
“Oh? It’s you.” Yan Muling recognized Wang Xu and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Yan Muling had an especially deep impression of the level-five student in front of her. He was one of the very few men who did not have any ulterior motives towards her. Usually, when ordinary men saw her, they would involuntarily look at her. The look in their eyes made Yan Muling very uncomfortable. However, Wang Xu was different. His eyes were always clear and sincere.
Wang Xu walked forward apologetically and said, “Miss Yan, may I ask if the item in your hand is the Fruit of Life?”
Yan Muling was holding an egg-sized red fruit in her hand. It was bright and alluring.
Wang Xu recognized it at a glance. This was the Fruit of Life.
The Fruit of Life contained surging life force, but it would not appear on the surface. One could only rely on the naked eye to distinguish it.
The Fruit of Life was very similar to ordinary fruits. If one didn’t often deal with the Fruit of Life, it would be difficult to tell at a glance. Wang Xu had specially done his homework for this, but he couldn’t be sure, so he could only go up and ask.
Yan Muling nodded. “That’s right. I originally planned to buy a few, but there’s only one left.”
Wang Xu secretly heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Miss Yan, I want to buy this Fruit of Life from you. I can give you another half of its price as compensation. How about that?”
If anyone else made this request to Yan Muling, Yan Muling would definitely ignore them and turn around to leave. This was because there were too many people who wanted to find an excuse to get close to her. There were all kinds of excuses, but Yan Muling saw no impurities in Wang Xu’s eyes. He was serious. He really needed this Fruit of Life.
“I can sell you the Fruit of Life, but you have to tell me how you did the fist strength test that day,” Yan Muling said.
Wang Xu rubbed his nose and said embarrassedly, “To be honest, I don’t know either.”
Wang Xu really didn’t know. Everything about the increase in his strength was just a guess.
Yan Muling looked at Wang Xu’s embarrassed expression and smiled. “Alright, take this Fruit of Life.”
Wang Xu took the Fruit of Life in surprise and looked at Yan Muling sincerely. “Thank you.”
Then, Wang Xu wanted to transfer the contribution points to Yan Muling through the optical brain chip, but Yan Muling refused.
“I’ll give you the Fruit of Life as a greeting gift between friends.” Yan Muling waved her hand.
“Thank you.” Wang Xu was speechless and could only thank her again.
Yan Muling couldn’t believe herself as she looked at Wang Xu’s departing figure. She muttered, “When did I become so generous to boys?”
In the treatment room, Wang Xu pushed the door open and entered. In the ward, other than the Crimson Flame Legion, there was also Wang Xu’s benefactor, Yan Cheng.
“Brother Yan!” Wang Xu greeted him gratefully. The reason why he was able to escape this time was because of the “Romance of the Saber” that Yan Cheng had given him. Otherwise, Wang Xu wouldn’t be here now but would have died in the wilderness and become food for the insect beasts.
Golden Shield, Gui Suan, Red Ax, and Yan Cheng looked worried as they looked at the three people covered in needles on the bed.
“Brother Wang Xu, you’ve really broadened my horizons this time.” Yan Cheng looked surprised when he saw Wang Xu. Clearly, he had already heard the reason for the destruction of the Thunder Legion yesterday.
When he heard about this just now, Yan Cheng thought that Golden Shield was joking with him. A level-five student killed a level-seven master expert? This kind of thing was like a bicycle colliding with a truck. In the end, the truck was sent flying. It was impossible!
However, he knew Golden Shield’s personality. He would never make such a boring joke. Moreover, after seeing the injuries of the three members of the Crimson Flame Legion with his own eyes, he finally subverted his thoughts. His eyes revealed unconcealable shock.
“Brother Golden Shield, how are Black Whip and Blue Sword?” Wang Xu asked worriedly.
“Not good. The doctor said that their lives were saved for the time being, but they were too seriously injured. Even if they used medical technology to recover, it would be difficult for them to exert their former strength.” Golden Shield did not sleep the entire night, and his voice was filled with deep fatigue. On this night, Golden Shield thought of the past. The Crimson Flame Legion started from scratch and slowly climbed from the bottom of the rankings to their current height after several years. However, he only realized yesterday that the Crimson Flame Legion was so fragile.
Over the years, the Crimson Flame Legion had been used to smooth sailing. They had forgotten that the true danger of the Genius Legion was not killing insect beasts to complete the mission, but stronger experts.
The strong would not have mercy or scruples. In the wild, life was life and death was death. If Wang Xu had not reversed the situation yesterday, the Crimson Flame Legion would have been removed from the legion ranking and disappeared forever.
No one would asked how the Crimson Flame Legion disappeared, nor would anyone stop for them because they were too weak. They were so weak that a level-seven powerhouse was enough to suffocate them!
“Brother Golden Shield, I have three Fruits of Life here. I want Black Whip, Blue Sword, and Red Eyes to eat them.” Wang Xu took out three Fruits of Life and said.

Golden Shield and Gui Suan looked at each other and understood that Wang Xu felt guilty. They patted Wang Xu’s shoulder and said, “Wang Xu, don’t take all the responsibility. The situation yesterday made me understand that only the strong are qualified to compete in this world. I’ve already lost the heart of the strong and don’t have the strength to compete anymore. I want to go to the legion in a few days to apply for retirement…”
“Brother Golden Shield!” Wang Xu said anxiously. Golden Shield waved his hand.
“You’re still young. You have unlimited potential to tap into. I hope you can carry our unfinished dreams and keep going.”
Wang Xu’s eyes turned red. Once Golden Shield retired, it meant that the Crimson Flame Legion was about to be disbanded. Although he had only joined the Crimson Flame Legion for a few days, his feelings for the legion were no less than the others.
“Go. The Fruit of Life has a certain healing effect on them. Whether they can be cured depends on their luck,” said Golden Shield.
Wang Xu lowered his head in silence and fed the three Fruits of Life to Black Whip, Blue Sword, and Red Eyes.
A moment later, the Fruit of Life dissolved in the bodies of the three of them. The essence of the fruit emitted a strong vitality, constantly regrowing the damaged cells in their bodies. The three of them, who were originally weak and pale from the heavy injuries, clearly became rosy. However, after a while, the surging vitality gradually dissipated. Black Whip, Blue Sword, and Red Eyes were still unconscious. Their injuries had not completely recovered.
The Fruit of Life had the miraculous effect of reviving the dead. However, this was only for ordinary people. The higher their cultivation level, the stronger and more complicated their bodies were, and the less effective the Fruit of Life was.
Wang Xu was dejected. He had spent a huge price to buy the Fruit of Life, but in the end, it still couldn’t heal their injuries.
“The Fruit of Life isn’t omnipotent. If you want them to recover completely, I know a way,” Yan Cheng suddenly said.
“What method?” Wang Xu asked immediately.
“Remember the ‘deprivation’ last time? The method I mentioned is basically the same as deprivation. Use the power of technology to penetrate every damaged cell and perform surgery on the cells so that they can completely recover without any side effects,” Yan Cheng said. “However, such a surgery consumes a lot of resources. The price is very expensive.”
It showed how terrifying the price of this surgery was when Yancheng said that it was expensive.
Wang Xu’s gaze was firm. “Brother Yan, tell me. How many contribution points does a surgery require? I’ll definitely gather them!”
Black Whip, Blue Sword, and Red Eyes were injured because of him and had almost lost their lives. Wang Xu could not watch them leave dejectedly.
“This number.” Yan Cheng stretched out five fingers and said softly, “Five hundred million!”
Hiss!
Red Axe gasped and looked at Wang Xu with wide eyes. Five hundred million!
Moreover, this was just one surgery. Three people meant three surgeries. In other words, it was 1.5 billion!
1.5 billion contribution points were enough to buy several SS-grade weapons and armor!
Even a level-eight powerhouse like Yan Cheng might not have 1.5 billion.
Golden Shield and Gui Suan also looked at Wang Xu. They were hoping that Wang Xu would refuse because the price was too high. It was impossible!
“No problem!” Wang Xu took a deep breath and said slowly. His eyes were filled with unprecedented determination!
Instantly, the entire treatment room fell silent.
Yan Cheng patted Wang Xu’s shoulder hard and gave him a thumbs up. “To be honest, I’ve never admired many people in my life. You’re one of them!”
Golden Shield and Gui Suan looked at each other and saw satisfaction in each other’s eyes.
Regardless of whether Wang Xu could gather 1.5 billion contribution points in the future, just the courage to bear such an expensive price made them feel that they had not misjudged him.

“Brother Wang Xu, Crimson Flame will probably disband now that Golden Shield is going to retire. Why don’t you join my legion with Red Ax?” Yan Cheng said.
Yan Cheng deliberately glanced at Golden Shield and Gui Suan.He heaved a sigh of relief when the two of them did not react.
Wang Xu was stunned and looked at Golden Shield.
“Wang Xu, join them. Once Crimson Flame disbands, you still need to find a new legion. Instead of joining an unfamiliar legion, why don’t you join Big Brother Yan? Moreover, his legion is ranked third. You can gather contribution points faster.” Golden Shield said.
Since Golden Shield said so, Wang Xu didn’t argue anymore and nodded. “I’ll join.”
