Chapter 520: Chapter 378: War Zone Top Secret, Bone-Chilling Killing Intent, the Unfathomable Su Mu!

"I just want to know who did it. Marshal Yue, please tell me..."

Su Mu’s tone was icy, like a peerless Demon King from Hell. Even Marshal Yue, who had been in a high position for many years, felt a chill run down his spine and his entire body shivered.

Marshal Yue was shocked. He suddenly realized that his understanding of Su Mu was insufficient, whether it was that overwhelming aura that oppressed him immensely just now or the bone-chilling killing intent at this moment.

Both stirred tumultuous waves in Marshal Yue’s heart. He realized that Su Mu being able to take the combined blow from him and Qian Xuemin might not simply be due to the sword pendant from the Sword Pavilion.

But how did Su Mu achieve such a world-shaking change in strength in such a short time?!

"According to the investigation by the Dark Department of the War Zone, the preliminary judgment is that the other party should be a Martial Artist with an Innate Spiritual Talent, and has the ability to manipulate the target’s mind or use martial arts similar to creating an Illusion Realm. Initially, their strength is estimated to be above a Great Grandmaster."

"Martial Artists who meet these conditions and are good at mind manipulation within Huaxia include the Hu Du Gu Family and the Overlord Blade Martial Arts Hall..."

"And outside of Huaxia, the most suspicious person is the Dark Demon Society, the Phantom Demon ranked fourth on the Demon List."

"I will send you the information on these people."

Su Mu noted down these names, took a deep breath, and the killing intent in his eyes dissipated. Su Mu resumed his usual gentle demeanor, "Marshal Yue, sorry, I lost my composure just now."

"How is Miaomiao doing now?"

When talking about Miaomiao, Su Mu’s tone naturally softened, and a strange light flashed in Marshal Yue’s eyes. Indeed, he hadn’t misjudged the person; Su Mu highly values his family and friends.

"A new batch of Soul Stabilizing Potion has been redistributed through the War Zone, and several Soul Repairing Instruments have been urgently dispatched. A special ward for soul stabilization has been set up, but to be honest, Miaomiao’s situation is not very good..."

"Marshal Yue, Marshal Qian, I can’t thank you enough for your great kindness; the War Zone’s favor is something I, Su Mu, will remember in my heart."

...

Amidst the rumbling, the warplane landed.

"Marshal Yue, Marshal Qian, I’ll go ahead."

Qian Xuemin watched Su Mu’s departing figure, wanting to do something, but Marshal Yue stopped him, "Let Su Mu go alone."

After several seconds of silence,

Qian Xuemin spoke.

"Old Yue, I find it hard to see through Su Mu now. Was that strike really just the Martial Saint’s Will being triggered?"

"Don’t worry."

"He is loyal and repays gratitude. Su Mu hasn’t changed; he is still that ray of dawn, and that will not change."

...

At the Headquarter Hospital, the lying Foodie had boiling hot blood running through its veins. It raised its huge head, showing wild joy on its face. It suddenly sensed something.

A loud chirping resounded.

"Foodie, well done. There is some flesh in this ring; you can eat it first."

The whirlwind halted beside Foodie, revealing a figure. Foodie’s eyes were full of joy and shock; its master had really returned, and it seemed like his strength had horrifyingly enhanced!

Su Mu smiled and patted the Foodie, which kept rubbing its head against him, "Okay, you eat first."

"Dad, it must be dad who came back?!"

Hearing the extremely joyful chirping outside the building, Xiaoyue in the ward suddenly woke up. She hurriedly pushed open the ward door. Inside, Xiaoyue’s grandmother and grandfather were stunned, their faces showing a look of heartache.

Recently, Xiaoyue had been murmuring Su Mu’s name in her dreams, and perhaps this time she was experiencing auditory hallucinations again.

Sigh!

The two elderly people silently sighed.

Xiaoyue ran out of the ward and froze. At the end of the hallway stood a reassuring tall figure.

Xiaoyue rubbed her eyes, afraid that everything in front of her was an illusion.

"It’s not an illusion, not an illusion. It’s really dad!"

"Xiaoyue, I’m back."

At this moment, Xiaoyue could no longer hold back, her nose was sour, and tears as big as beans flowed uncontrollably from her reddened eyes.

Su Mu stepped forward and picked Xiaoyue up, "It’s okay, dad is back. Everything will be okay. Trust dad."

Xiaoyue buried her head in Su Mu’s embrace, sobbing.

Hearing her sobs, the two elderly people came out. At the moment they saw Su Mu, they were also stunned, rubbing their eyes.

"Su, Su Mu, it’s really Su Mu?!"

The two elderly people had many things they wanted to say, but when the words reached their mouths, they turned into the simplest sentence.

"It’s good you’re back, it’s good you’re back..."

Su Mu stepped forward and embraced Xiaoyue’s grandparents, "Mom, Dad, I’m back. I’m sorry for coming back late and making you worry. Everything is over now, and Miaomiao will be alright."

As he spoke, Su Mu’s eyes kept glancing toward the ward.

"Mom, Dad, Xiaoyue, I want to stay with Miaomiao alone for a while."

Su Mu entered the ward, gently closed the door, walked to the bedside, and looked at his beloved, whose face was pale and body connected to numerous instruments. This tall figure was constantly trembling lightly.

"Miaomiao, I’m sorry. I’m late."

Su Mu gently held those slightly cold little hands, took several deep breaths, and after calming down, the crystal human form in his Sea of Consciousness opened its eyes.

He cautiously controlled his Spiritual Power to check Miaomiao’s physical condition, repeating several times before slowly infusing Immortal Power into her.

A radiant glow flickered. The Immortal Power circulated through her limbs, and Miaomiao’s complexion gradually became rosy.

After doing all this, Su Mu attempted to enter Miaomiao’s Sea of Consciousness.

However, outside of Miaomiao’s Sea of Consciousness, Su Mu quickly discovered a gray Soul Cocoon. Miaomiao had indeed sealed off her soul. In Su Mu’s eyes, which were usually decisive and resolute, there was rarely seen hesitation.

"The soul is profound yet fragile; one must not be impulsive now."

Finally, just as Su Mu was about to withdraw his Spiritual Power with a light sigh.

Buzz-----

An unexpected change occurred.

Suddenly, Su Mu sensed a subtle resonance between his Sea of Consciousness and Miaomiao’s Soul Cocoon.

Involving Miaomiao’s soul, Su Mu did not hesitate for a moment and entered a state of Introspection.

Soon, to his amazement, he discovered...

The source of the resonance was a seed of the Golden Giant Tree. With his Sea of Consciousness quivering slightly, in the state of Introspection, he could see the dormant seed in the earth starting to sprout and root.

The earth slightly cracked, and a faint golden light emerged from the fissure. The moment the light crossed the Sea of Consciousness and touched the gray Soul Cocoon.

A familiar, long-lost voice echoed.

"Teacher, long time no see..."
