Chapter 888: 693 The Chariot of the Sages! Face-Slapping [2 More Posts]

His gaze was cold, devoid of any warmth: "What did you say?"

That innate hostility, as if a blade cutting through the air, nearly slicing through one’s throat.

Even the longstanding Sage Empress Sara, facing such a gaze, couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart.

The eighth of the Twenty-Two Sages, the Chariot of the Sages, The Chariot.

In the Tarot Cards, the Chariot symbolizes victory.

"Sorry." Sara slightly stepped back, evading the man’s sharp edge, "Norton, what do you think?"

Xiu slightly frowned: "Norton?"

He remembered that initially, the Chariot did not have this name.

However, it was too long ago, and he had forgotten many of the Sages’ true names.

Some Sages had never mentioned their true names.

Even Strength and Justice, his closest friends, only addressed each other by their titles.

Sara responded blandly: "The Chariot’s name is now Norton. You can call him that. He doesn’t like being called the Chariot."

After a pause, she added: "Didn’t you visit the Seven Continents and Four Oceans a few hundred years ago? Norton University was established by the Chariot. It is said to be a quite... a very impressive university."

Xiu certainly knew Norton University.

As the founder of the W-Net and N.O.K. Forum, he always kept an eye on the news of the Seven Continents and Four Oceans.

The world’s top university, monopolizing almost all alchemy and astrology talents.

No wonder.

It was established by the Chariot of the Sages.

Norton slightly lifted his chin and smiled: "Long time no see, Hermit."

"Ah, it truly has been a long time." Xiu hesitated for a moment and shook hands with him.

As fellow Sages, Xiu knew that Sages possessed such abilities.

They could completely disguise themselves as ordinary people, suppressing all their powers and memories, becoming entirely ordinary.

During this period of disguise, even the Sage themselves would not know that they were a Sage.

Until they returned to the Sage Academy, their powers and memories would be restored.

Usually, this situation occurred due to severe injuries needing rest and recuperation.

After all, Sages are responsible for maintaining the City of the World and the Seven Continents and Four Oceans.

They also have to combat natural disasters; many impending magnitude ten earthquakes need Sages to fend off.

Injuries are sometimes inevitable.

Xiu was not a combat-type Sage, so he basically never got injured.

The Sage Power differed; there were several instances of severe injury and near-death.

Back then, Xiu went to the Seven Continents and Four Oceans to establish the N.O.K. Forum, mainly because he needed to find Sage Power.

It was also at that time that he encountered Ying Zijin.

Ying Zijin helped him figure out the location of Sage Power.

After this incident, he became confidants with Ying Zijin, Sage Power, and Sage Justice.

Xiu suspected Norton had a similar situation.

Of course, there was another possibility.

That is, the Sage fell and was reborn.

That is why there has always been such a rumor in the City of the World—

If a baby is born in the City of the World with Golden Blood, the baby is likely the reincarnation of a Sage.

The Twenty-Two Sages had not gathered together for a very long time.

Long to the extent of several centuries.

Besides the three frequently appearing in the City of the World—Pope, Empress, and Magician, Xiu wasn’t sure about some of the Sages’ situations.

But definitely some Sages had fallen.

"Xiu, as long as Norton agrees with the matter of Su Wen, I will consent too." Sara spoke again, "Otherwise, I can equally issue an order, cutting off Su Wen."

Xiu’s expression instantly turned cold: "Sara, I can also suspect that the disappearance of the Leaangle Family patriarch is related to you. Why are you continually obstructing?"

"Blocking?" Sara’s brows slightly raised, "I fundamentally do not believe in Ancient Medicine. Even the Magician Society couldn’t wake Su Wen, how could Ancient Medicine do it? Don’t forget, there is no medicine in this world that a Magician cannot create."

Norton leaned against the wall, still smiling: "Empress, why are you so concerned about an ordinary person? Whether Ancient Medicine can heal her, what does it have to do with you?"

"Indeed." Sara avoided his gaze, "I really have no need to care about an ordinary person."

Not a Sage, just an ordinary person.

Merely a mortal body.

"Tsk." Norton raised his hand, lazily pointing to the hand command, "Trouble, may I borrow this for a moment."

Xiu hesitated for a moment, then handed it over.

Norton raised his eyebrow, casually signing on the hand command.

The hand command of two Sages, absolutely unique.

Sara’s gaze gradually froze, her hand clenched tightly.

As for Xiu, she didn’t care at all.

But Norton was also there.

The Chariot’s combat power was only lower than the Devil’s, neither she nor the Pope could withstand it.

"I want to see if she can wake up." Norton’s tone was very light, "I’m not helping you, just curious."

Xiu glanced at Norton, suppressed the confusion in his eyes, and left the Sage Academy.

Sara frowned, she turned her head: "Nor—"

She hadn’t called out the name yet when the man already turned and left.

A cold voice dropped: "Don’t bother me."

Sara took a deep breath, restrained her anger, and also left the Sage Academy.

The next morning.

Xiu personally went to the research institute to find Ying Zijin and handed over the hand command to her.

And recounted the events of yesterday.

"The Chariot’s temper has always been unpredictable." Xiu pressed his temples, "Luckily, it didn’t go wrong."

Ying Zijin took the hand command, her gaze fixed on the name "Norton".

After a while, she said in a low voice, "So that’s how it is."

The Tarot Cards had hinted to her that Norton had increased his power a month ago.

Apparently, it was because Norton had recovered his status as a Sage.

"Sigh, sorry, I’m still quite useless." Xiu scratched his head, "If I had my strength, we would have combat power. Without the Devil, who could beat the Chariot."

"It’s okay." Ying Zijin folded the hand command, "He’s one of us."

Xiu was stunned, it took him a long time to react, suddenly excited: "You know the Chariot?!"

How could he forget, this old friend of his had been active outside the city for so long, knowing people across the Seven Continents and Four Oceans.

"No, no, with your style, the Chariot wouldn’t be your enemy, would it?" Xiu was shocked again, "You have enemies all over the place."

Ying Zijin: "..."

She expressionlessly pushed Xiu out and closed the door.

Then contacted Sinai and Yu Xuesheng, once again drove to the Leaangle family.

This time, the doctor was a lot more polite. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

But still didn’t hold much hope.

Su Wen had been in a coma for too long, if not for relying on this sickbed, even with rare medicinal materials, her body functions could not have supported her till now.

Could these two hypnotists from outside the City of the World really wake Su Wen?

The doctor stood aside, watching vigilantly.

She had to prevent these two from having any ill intentions towards Su Wen.

Half an hour later, Yu Xuesheng finished a round of hypnosis.

Ying Zijin also finished checking Su Wen’s pulse: "How is it?"

"Miss Ying, Madam Su Wen’s mental state has improved a lot." Yu Xuesheng said softly, "It’s really a miracle, according to my estimate, it should have taken at least four weeks of treatment."

Now, after only two hypnosis sessions, Su Wen’s mental state had already recovered by ninety percent.

It was indeed a miracle.

Ying Zijin listened, staring at the woman on the ice bed, dazed for the first time.

"Acupuncture can be done now." Yu Xuesheng smiled lightly, "If we’re lucky, she might wake up today... what’s wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Ying Zijin came back to her senses, took out a long box, and pinched three silver needles in her hand.

Seeing this scene, the doctor’s face immediately changed: "What are you planning to do?"

"Acupuncture." Ying Zijin rolled up her sleeves, focused and held her breath, "Mr. Yu, give me the hand command—"

Before she could finish her sentence, she was rudely interrupted.

"I said, the First Madam wouldn’t allow you to use such outdated methods for treatment." The doctor was furious, and immediately pressed the alarm, "Someone, someone, get these two outsiders out of the Leaangle family!"

As soon as the alarm sounded, the Third Madam who was waiting outside rushed in immediately, scolding: "What’s going on?"

"Third Madam, they still refuse to give up, wanting to give Madam Su Wen acupuncture." The doctor directly complained, "I suspect these two people had ill intentions from the beginning."

"Acupuncture?" The Third Madam’s face also changed, she decisively refused, "Absolutely not."

Bier, who had followed in, saw the golden needle in the girl’s hand and said coldly: "If you really want to do acupuncture, then go and convince the Sage Academy to issue a hand command."

"Without a hand command, acting on your own, who do you think you are?"

Bier was truly annoyed.

A streamer imitating her style had appeared on W Network, and a newly joined researcher was pushed into her experimental projects.

Now there were even people despising the main house authority.

The Third Madam didn’t want to waste another moment: "Arrest them, send them to the Sage Academy."

In the chaos, Ying Zijin remained calm and composed.

She put down the golden needle, took the hand command from Yu Xuesheng, raised it.

Black characters on a white background, clear and distinct.

Bier turned her head and looked over: "What is that?"
