Chapter 1188: Soul Spring

“Yunfei’s back!!”

Back in the Water School, the prone figure of Xiao Qi was ‘meditating’ up high in the air. He hadn’t moved even a single muscle until he felt Bai Yunfei’s immediate presence.

The ones beside him, Murong Xiao and Xiao Binzi, turned to look at the direction was facing just to see two streaks of red light come flying toward them.

It was Bai Yunfei and elder Jin.

“How did it go, Bai Yunfei? How are the others?”

Murong Xiao asked. He was concerned for those of his school.

Hardly any time had passed since Bai Yunfei left to go find Zheng Kai. They all thought that Bai Yunfei was just worried about his friend’s safety and went to make sure he was alright. No one thought that Kou Tingting and the others would be in major trouble.

“My friend is seriously hurt, headmaster Murong. Elder Qu and some of the students from the Wood School are similarly hurt. Please see to their treatment as quickly as you can.”

Waving his hand, Bai Yunfei summoned all the injured parties out from the Core World for everyone to see.

“What?!”

The school went into a panic at once. Several of the Late-stage Soul Kings from the Water School flew by the injured parties sides at once to begin investigating their wounds.

“What in the world happened?!” Murong Xiao asked.

“It all began after we met with the Wood School. A group was there waiting to ambush us. The Monster of Black Lightning was one of them…”

Elder Qu responded. Most of his wounds were already recovered, so he took it upon himself to be the one to report everything that happened.

……

“What?! There was another group of Soul Kings waiting to ambush us from behind?!”

Everyone was alarmed to hear the story. Just listening to it had some of the audiences break out in cold sweat.

After the story, Murong Xiao took the opportunity to approach Kou Tingting. She was still holding Zheng Kai in her hands, so Murong Xiao took his right hand and checked his pulse. “He’s seriously hurt!” His eyebrows flew to the top of his forehead in surprise. “How in the world did he manage to live through such wounds…” 

“Please save my friend, headmaster Murong. I hope he won’t have any lasting conditions after this…”

“Worry not. I will do my best to heal him.” Murong Xiao nodded in earnest.

He took a second to think of the best plan to treat Zheng Kai. “Elder Zhou,” He turned to a yellow-faced elder, “Take him to the Soul Spring. I’ll treat him personally in a moment.”

A flicker of shock traveled across the elder’s face, but he nodded. “Yes, headmaster!”

Several others were shocked to hear Murong Xiao, but Kou Tingting seemed overjoyed.

The Soul Spring was a treasured secret of the Water School and only a rumor to those outside of the Water School. Underneath the Water School was a vein of water-type primal stones. After countless years of condensation, the energy of the primal stones turned into a liquid form that gathered in a spring, causing the water there to be equivalent to a heaven-tier pill and could perform miracles almost capable of reviving someone from the dead.

Reviving the dead was an exaggeration, but the actual effects of the Soul Spring couldn’t be underestimated. Zheng Kai would most definitely be able to fully recover if he were to be treated there.

With Kou Tingting being so concerned for Zheng Kai’s health, she was the one to take him into the school where the Soul Spring was. Those from the Wood School were taken elsewhere to recuperate, leaving Bai Yunfei time to investigate other matters.

“Have the enemies been neutralized, headmaster Murong?”

He asked Murong Xiao as they watched the students of the Water School begin to clean up the battlefield.

“We killed those Soul Kings left alive after you left. It is their fate to become earthbound ghosts to roam these lands for eternity!” Murong Xiao spat.

Murong Xiao was furious at those who had dared attack his school, and rightfully so. But even as he spoke, he gave a strange look to Xiao Qi—who was currently perched on Bai Yunfei’s shoulder.

This was because a little while ago, Xiao Qi was the one that had been more excited than the Water School to kill the last few Soul Kings. He was practically ravenous and shouted the entire time to ‘let him kill them all’. Even those Soul Kings who were about to be killed by people from the Water School were killed first by Xiao Qi as if he was doing them a favor. In the end, the majority of the deaths were by the result of Xiao Qi’s doing.

Some of the Water School members were surprised, but they couldn’t say they didn’t expect it. In the end, soulbeasts were soulbeasts. Their desire to kill were innately stronger than the desire in soul cultivators… 

“What will happen to Li Luocang, the one you captured?” Murong Xiao asked.

“There’ll be no problems from him since he’s sealed in the Core World.” Bai Yunfei smiled, at last there was a name to this Soul Emperor. “Was there anything you wanted to learn from him, headmaster?”

“Not at all. He is at your full discretion.”

Interrogating a Mid-stage Soul Emperor was close to pointless. A Soul Saint would be needed in order to find whatever information they were hiding, but not even that would come easy.

“Then he will die.” Bai Yunfei replied.

“……”

Everyone felt a chilling wind blow across their hearts— since when did it become so simple to give the death sentence to a Mid-stage Soul Emperor?

No one stayed here on the battlefield for long. Nothing abnormal could be detected anymore and everyone could finally return to the interior of the school.

…………

……

The afternoon of the second day after the battle.

A room within the main peak of the Water School.

“Headmaster Murong, how is Zheng Kai?”

Bai Yunfei stood up to ask the moment he saw Murong Xiao enter the room.

The other man was fatigued. “There are no complications, so you may rest assured. All he needs is rest. It’s a long period of rest, but he will make a full recovery.”

It felt as though a giant boulder had been lifted off Bai Yunfei’s shoulders. “Thank you very much, headmaster Murong.”

“There’s no need for that,” Murong Xiao smiled, “I should be the one thanking you. Had you not come rushing over my school would’ve been in grave danger. Zheng Kai was grievously hurt on our behalf, treating him should be expected.”

A period of silence descended in the room for a moment before Bai Yunfei decided to leave. He walked to the top of a nearby mountain peak where those from the Crafting School were temporarily residing in.

Nothing of great value was lost to the Water School, but they had plenty of casualties and injuries. It’d take a great amount of time before they could recuperate from that. Thankfully, the losses of their enemies were far greater. It’d be very unlikely that a repeat of this event would happen soon.

The Wind Lightning School had three Soul Emperors and over twenty Soul Kings. The Soul Refining School had a single Soul Emperor and a dozen Soul Kings. There was also the Half-emperor the Monster of Black Lightning along with his group of wandering soul cultivators. All of them were dead.

Since there wasn’t much use for the Mid-stage Soul Emperor from the Wind Lightning School, Bai Yunfei simply had Xiao Qi kill him and be done with it.

All Bai Yunfei had left to do was wait in the Water School until Zheng Kai woke up.

But it appeared the Heavens had no intention of letting Bai Yunfei rest. For when he returned to his room that day, Bai Yunfei found himself meeting with someone that wasn’t supposed to be there…
