My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1380: Chapter 1379: Leaving Immortal Island

"We swear to protect the Immortal Island, and will never surrender it to anyone."

The soldiers shouted in unison.

Watching the resolve of the soldiers, Isle Master Gu rose with effort, ready to face the next battle. Peng Fei smirked and raised his large steel blade, pulsating with energy.

Suddenly, he started to rampage, swiftly slashing towards Gu Shengtian.

Isle Master Gu estimated that if he blocked this blow, he might meet his doom, but the speed ensured that even if he dodged, Peng Fei would immediately continue attacking. Unable to evade, he resolutely chose to resist.

Just as Peng Fei leapt and cut down towards Isle Master Gu from above, a sword gleaming with orange light swiftly pierced through, and after its rapid thrust, a figure appeared from within the blade, gripping the Dragon Slayer Sword.

"Impossible, who are you? How can you achieve the Unity of Man and Sword?"

Peng Fei was extremely surprised as he had only heard of the Sword God, Mad Dragon Daoist, reaching such a level, and now, this young man before him could too.

After landing, Chen Tianlong immediately walked to Isle Master Gu and asked with concern, "Isle Master Gu, are you alright?"

"Cough, cough, I’m fine."

After a few coughs, Isle Master Gu revealed a hint of discomfort.

Chen Tianlong could see the serious internal injury but knew the priority was to drive away the pirates. He turned to Peng Fei, smirked, and slowly approached him.

"Don’t you dare insult the Sword God’s secret technique, Unity of Man and Sword, is not something a shameless person like you can mimic." Chen Tianlong knew his strength had far surpassed Peng Fei’s, emboldening him further.

"Hmph, defeated is defeated, I have nothing to say. Do as you will." Peng Fei, equally spirited, accepted his defeat with dignity.

"I won’t kill you, just hope you can lead your pirates away from here, and never return to Immortal Island. Isle Master Gu is my senior mentor; as long as I, Chen Tianlong, live, this place is my home." Chen Tianlong warned with a hint of threat.

Peng Fei was taken aback, thinking: Is he really letting me go? But I’ve injured Isle Master Gu so gravely, surely I won’t be let off that easily?

"However, I’d like to ask you, what secret technique did you use earlier that kept your stamina so intact?" Chen Tianlong also noticed, Isle Master Gu being a master as well, why was there such a disparity? It seemed peculiar to him.

Peng Fei pondered for a while, a sly smile crossing his face, "If I tell you or give it to you, will you spare us?"

After receiving Isle Master Gu’s nod, Chen Tianlong smiled at Peng Fei, "Heh, if you want us to spare you, let’s hear what good things you can offer us."

"Haha, young brother, refreshing! I’ll just give it to you directly then. To be honest, I consumed this." With that, he took out a small bottle from his pocket.

"What is this thing?"

Chen Tianlong was puzzled, thinking: Surely this guy isn’t trying to trick me with some little gimmick?

"This is the Nine-Turns Bone Reviving Pill, used for Body Refinement, divided into large, medium, and small categories. You need a certain physique to ingest it, or it’s ineffective. There’s only one large Nine-Turns Bone Reviving Pill left inside; I’ve consumed the smaller ones." Peng Fei explained, fearing Chen Tianlong’s doubt.

"Isn’t this poison?"

Chen Tianlong was cautious; if it were poison, it would be ludicrous.

"Rest assured, it’s absolutely safe. Besides, even if you don’t believe it, the large Nine-Turns Bone Reviving Pill is used for advanced Body Refinement; many in the cultivation world can verify its ingredients."

At this point, Isle Master Gu took the bottle, opened it, and after smelling it, he nodded to Chen Tianlong.

Understanding, Chen Tianlong told Peng Fei, "Alright, alright, you can retreat with your pirates now while I’m in a good mood and won’t hold it against you."

Chen Tianlong, while intimidating, couldn’t resist a little show, while Peng Fei was overjoyed, thinking: It’s good to keep alive; when I rise again, I won’t rush to return. Now is the moment of defeat, and there’s no point in staying longer.

Peng Fei waved his hand, and the pirates slowly returned to their ship.

"Young brother, no matter what, Peng thanks you for your mercy." After finishing, he ran straight to the ship, gave an order, and the ship began its return voyage.

Watching the pirate ship slowly retreat, Gu Shengtian finally felt relieved and sat down on the beach, exhausted. He had been enduring great pain, with severe internal injuries.

"Father, what happened?" Gu Yuxin ran over to ask with concern.

Meanwhile, Wu Mengting and Chen Tianlong surrounded him, all a bit worried. After taking a deep breath, Gu Shengtian opened his eyes and weakly smiled.

"I’m alright now, but I may need to retreat for healing soon. Once I settle everything, I will enter seclusion for recovery." Isle Master Gu said calmly.

The group helped Isle Master Gu slowly walk towards the villa, while the soldiers also retreated, leaving some behind for sentry duty to prevent another enemy occurrence.

Soon, they arrived at the villa, where Gu Shengtian finished his arrangements for retreat.

"My daughter, I’m sorry, but I can’t accompany you to play this time." Gu Shengtian said apologetically.

"Father, what are you saying? Healing is more important; I can go out to play again." Gu Yuxin said indifferently, accustomed to going out.

Gu Shengtian looked at Chen Tianlong and laughed, "Chen Tianlong, my junior, I entrust you to take care of Yu Xin for me."

Gu Shengtian firmly believed in Chen Tianlong, given his clear strength, so trusting him with his daughter’s protection seemed safe.

"Father, I don’t want him taking care of me; I can take care of myself."

Gu Yuxin pouted at Chen Tianlong, acting spoiled.

"Haha, alright, if you can take care of yourself, that’s all the better." Saying so, he got up to enter seclusion.

Gu Yuxin felt a bit reluctant, but given the severe injuries requiring two or three months to heal, staying alone on the island seemed uninteresting, so she opted to leave Immortal Island with Chen Tianlong.

They returned on the Immortal Island ship, soon arriving at the bamboo forest where they were chased earlier, and Chen Tianlong was filled with emotion; so much had happened in just ten days.

"Heh, Mengting, we’ve finally returned."

Chen Tianlong smiled, showing his charming little dimples.

"Haha, yes, we’re back." Wu Mengting felt time had flown, everything like passing clouds, but with Chen Tianlong by her side, everywhere felt the same.

"Hey, why aren’t you two talking to me?" Gu Yuxin felt a strange pang of melancholy watching their affectionate exchange.

"Haha, Yu Xin, we’re just reflecting on time’s swift passage, how could we forget you?" Wu Mengting hastily explained.

Chen Tianlong stuck his tongue out at Gu Yuxin and began to walk towards the bamboo forest.

The three chatted and laughed as they arrived at a town, where Chen Tianlong noticed Sabina patrol units everywhere, along with refugees, beggars, and the sick strewn across the streets, swirling feelings of disgust within him.

"Those cursed Sabina people, occupying our Huaxia, treating the citizens so despicably, plundering everywhere and leaving corpses in their wake." Chen Tianlong thought, gritting his teeth.

"Chen Tianlong, what do we do now? The nation is unrecognizable, and the homes dilapidated." Wu Mengting felt distressed by the dismal scenes.

"Well, the next task is to find a way to drive the Sabina people out of Huaxia. But right now, another crucial matter is to rescue the National Defense Army General, Ancient Celestial Dragon. He holds great power and military support, and only he can lead the army to expel Sabina from Huaxia."

Chen Tianlong became serious, sharing the plan with Wu Mengting and the others.

"What do we do?"

Wu Mengting felt helpless about such national matters but asked out of concern.

"Well, don’t worry about this yet; let’s find an inn first. Later, I’ll scout for information, and when we reach Capital City, we can plan our moves." Chen Tianlong smiled slightly.

"Alright."

Wu Mengting nodded, growing relieved.

The three soon found an inn to stay in, and that night, Chen Tianlong ventured onto the streets alone. The scenes he encountered horrified him further. Suddenly, at a corner, Chen Tianlong noticed a group acting furtively and decided to follow them.

Not long after, in a dilapidated hut, he saw a dozen people gathered, each with a sword at their waist. Chen Tianlong stealthily looked through a crack in the window.
