Supreme Dragon Lord-Chapter 273 Picked Up a Treasure!

The words had barely left his mouth when the gazes of the two elders fell upon Fu Qing, seeking his confirmation.

"It seems you do have some insight," Fu Qing said with a nod. "We obtained a total of five Heaven Reaching Fruits."

"Five... five?!"

The two elders were stunned into a daze. They exchanged glances, and one of them even dug at his ear. "I didn’t mishear, did I? Five fruits?!"

"It seems we didn’t," the other elder replied, nodding dumbly, as if he were in a dream.

Fu Qing paid no mind to their shock and continued, "I’ve already given one of the Heaven Reaching Fruits to Long Chen. Our Guiyuan Academy was able to obtain these fruits thanks to the indispensable contributions of all the disciples who went to the Sacred Ruins Forbidden Land. However, the most critical factor was Long Chen’s presence. Otherwise, these Heaven Reaching Fruits would never have ended up in our hands."

"It’s certainly not an issue for him to receive one," the two elders agreed, nodding slightly with no objections.

Just then, one of the elders blurred into motion, appearing before Long Chen in the blink of an eye and launching a palm strike.

Long Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. He remained unperturbed as the powerful gust of wind rushed toward him, simply sidestepping the blow rather than meeting it with force. Seeing Long Chen so easily evade his attack, the elder grew even more interested. He pivoted and attacked Long Chen again.

This time, Long Chen did not dodge. He immediately channeled his battle qi and struck out with a palm of his own!

BANG!

Their palms collided, sending a powerful ripple of energy spreading outward from the point of impact. Long Chen, however, was forced back. Each step he took left a deep footprint on the hard floor, and it took him a full nine steps to regain his footing.

"Truly a promising youth!" The elder who had attacked Long Chen did not press further, instead nodding in satisfaction. "Among the younger generation, I’m afraid no disciple in our Guiyuan Academy is your opponent. It seems our Guiyuan Academy has truly found a treasure!"

The elder then looked at Fu Qing and smiled slightly. "Senior Brother Feng hasn’t appeared in a long time, yet he still keeps us in his thoughts!"

"At least he has a conscience and hasn’t forgotten about our Guiyuan Academy!" the other elder added. "He’s been gone for so long, never bothering with the academy’s affairs. It’s about time he contributed."

Fu Qing shook his head with a smile. "Senior Brother is used to a carefree, wandering life. Getting him to come back and manage the Guiyuan Academy is probably impossible."

Just then, two more elders walked out from the room.

Upon seeing them, Fu Qing and the others immediately went over. "How are Dong Xuan and Wei Lin’s injuries?" Fu Qing asked with concern.

One of the elders spoke first. "Dong Xuan sustained an internal injury and his meridians are damaged. He’ll need a period of quiet rest to recover."

"Wei Lin’s condition is similar, but his hand..." the other elder started to explain, but his voice trailed off, leaving the sentence unfinished.

Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.

Fu Qing frowned. "Is there really no way to heal Wei Lin’s hand?"

"It’s very difficult," the elder said, shaking his head. "Unless we can find a medicine capable of regenerating flesh, but such a thing is incredibly hard to find."

"As long as there’s hope, that’s enough." A flash of determination appeared in Fu Qing’s eyes. "No matter how difficult it is to find, I will search for it with all my might!" Suddenly, he thought of something else and his gaze landed on Long Chen. "Where is my Senior Brother? His medical skills are superb; perhaps he has a solution."

"Dean, I understand," Long Chen said with a slight nod. "As it happens, I need to bring medicine back for a friend’s injuries anyway. I will go find him at once and see if he has a solution."

"Alright, go on," Fu Qing said, nodding to Long Chen.

"I take my leave!"

After taking his leave from everyone present, Long Chen left the Guiyuan Academy and headed straight toward the distant mountain range.

Spirit Monarch, I’ve found the Restoring Tendon Grass. I’m coming back for you. Wait for me!
