Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl-Chapter 854 Yan Tingfeng: Paving the way for Her Royal Highness the Princess [2nd update]

Chapter 854: 854 Yan Tingfeng: Paving the way for Her Royal Highness the Princess [2nd update]

The Wanguo Group, as the leading enterprise of the Global Center, attracts a significant amount of external attention with every move it makes.

Estelle Rubinstein, being the youngest CTO of Wanguo Group and on par with the president of the World’s First Bank, Miss Kristin, made her death an extremely significant incident.

Once this news announcement was released, the entire Global Center exploded.

[???]

[This can’t be real, Miss Estelle is dead? It’s not April Fool’s Day, this joke isn’t funny.]

[Come to think of it, since last year, Miss Estelle has not appeared in public. At that time, Wanguo Group claimed she was doing research.]

[Could it be that Miss Estelle was seriously ill then, and after a year of treatment, there was no success, so Wanguo Group had to issue such an announcement?]

[Urgent! What’s going on? I can’t accept Estelle’s sudden death—Wanguo Group must issue a formal statement!]

There were various speculations, but Wanguo Group did not release a second statement and remained silent, completely ignoring the uproar on the Global Center’s social media.

Kristin’s expression instantly turned cold: "Some damn people in Wanguo Group can’t wait any longer."

"Please give instructions, Miss Kristin." The young deacon spoke seriously, "The day after tomorrow is the announcement day for the new CTO, and they’ve also invited you to participate in the ceremony."

"Of course, I must go." Kristin sneered, "But whether there’s a new CTO or not, they don’t get to decide that."

"Do you mean..." The young deacon was first startled, then exclaimed, "Miss Estelle is still alive, and Wanguo Group is lying?"

"Wanguo Group isn’t lying; they just believe Estelle is dead." Kristin’s voice was icy, "I now have every reason to suspect that Estelle’s misadventure into Atlantis was orchestrated by those few old bastards."

In the Global Center, no power is entirely monolithic, and Wanguo Group internally has naturally split into factions, each engaging in overt and covert struggles.

Estelle’s faction is the weakest; once something happens to Estelle, this faction will also collapse.

The few elders of Wanguo Group naturally do not want such an important position as CTO to be occupied by a young woman like Estelle.

I’m afraid from the very beginning, this was all a conspiracy.

"Understood." The young deacon grasped the implication immediately, "We will await your news."

After the call ended, Kristin slowly exhaled, her hand still trembling.

She didn’t know if Estelle would survive, but she believed in Ye Wanlan.

Upon learning that Estelle had been rescued by Ye Wanlan, Wen Chaosheng, Ling Yunzhan, Yeh Xingli, Darian Stuart, and Ian Iliad all rushed over.

"Oh my God, Sister Cow-Horse really fell into Atlantis." Wen Chaosheng was pacing nervously, "What on earth happened!"

"Stay calm." Ling Yunzhan placed a hand on his shoulder, "All we can do next is trust Sister YN."

Time ticked by slowly, and everyone was restless, unable to calm down.

After what seemed like an eternity, there was a "click" as the door of the operating room finally opened.

"Sister YN!" Everyone stood up, looking very anxious, "How is it?"

"Good news, she’s temporarily out of life-threatening danger." Ye Wanlan looked exhausted, "But her injuries are extremely severe, and I don’t know when she’ll fully recover."

"If her life is saved, she will surely wake." Ian breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister YN, leave the rest to me."

Although nicknamed the Deadly Poison Master, Ian also had profound expertise in medicine.

"Yes, leave it to..." Ye Wanlan hadn’t finished speaking before collapsing from exhaustion.

"Ah Lan!" Kristin caught her, "You handle the other matters; I’ll take Ah Lan to rest. She hasn’t stopped traveling and was seriously injured in the battle with Envoy Shenxiu." freēwēbnovel.com

If Ye Wanlan hadn’t awakened her Divine Bloodline, she wouldn’t have held on with such injuries.

Looking at Ye Wanlan lying on the bed, Kristin’s heart clenched as if gripped tightly by a huge hand, feeling deeply distressed.

Why doesn’t Ye Wanlan... why doesn’t she think about herself?

But Kristin knew that Ye Wanlan was compassionate and loyal. Even before they had met, she had saved their lives, which made them willing to go through fire and water for her.

Only someone like Ye Wanlan is worth following and fighting alongside.

"Ah Lan..." Kristin’s voice was very low, "You must take good care of yourself; living means you can accomplish more things."

In Atlantis, Cangyuan Country.

Yan Tingfeng’s situation wasn’t good either; he could feel the Life-Devouring Gu becoming active again, and his internal organs ached.

Today’s battle with Envoy Shenxiu undoubtedly left him seriously injured.

Yan Tingfeng slowly closed his eyes: "I truly am useless now."

His strength, not to mention at one-tenth, was now at less than one-hundredth of what it once was.

If he were at his peak, why would he fear an Envoy Shenxiu?

"Tower Master, how can you speak of yourself like that? It’s just because of your body..." Yue Zheng couldn’t bear to look, hesitating before speaking softly, "You shouldn’t use your inner strength anymore."

Already in a broken body, his vital energy was constantly escaping. If not for the Life-Devouring Gu anchoring his essence, Yan Tingfeng would have lost all signs of life long ago.

And once he used his power, the speed of energy dissipation would increase, accelerating the loss of his life span.

Originally able to last for another three months, now it wouldn’t even be one month.

Yue Zheng felt powerless: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has been searching for a way to cure you—doesn’t the Tower Master really... not want to tell her?"

"Rong Shi has already decided my fate, so this body must collapse; it’s irreversible." Yan Tingfeng’s voice was light, "If she knew... she would blame herself again—it’s not her fault, but she would still blame herself, and my heart aches."

Even though Ye Wanlan often advised others not to have a "victim-blaming" mindset, when it came to herself, she would be deeply trapped in emotions.

Observers are clear-headed, while those involved are confused.

How could he not feel the heartache?

Hearing this, Yue Zheng fell silent, and after a while, she spoke: "Her Royal Highness is just under too much pressure."

They all knew how much pressure Ye Wanlan had put on herself, and for that, she was willing to risk her life time after time.

"I want to use my limited life to pave the way for her. I still have something very important to do." Yan Tingfeng spoke slowly, "Saintess, Gui Qing is still alive."
