Chapter 294: Peerless Treasure
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A mere moment ago, Parson appeared to be teetering on the brink of death, his mental state in turmoil. When he plummeted, crimson blood still trickled from the corner of Liao Ning’s mouth, but an astounding transformation had taken place.
The creases etched into his skin rapidly smoothed, and his physique grew markedly more robust. Simultaneously, his once-gray hair took on a rich, youthful black hue.
The assembled onlookers gaped in disbelief at Parson’s miraculous transformation, then shifted their attention to Liao Ning, who clutched her bleeding arm.
“Are you alright?” Zhou Ling acted swiftly, draping his coat over Liao Ning’s trembling form.
Liao Ning merely shook her head. The presence of military personnel and numerous spectators amplified her apprehension. Many must have witnessed the bizarre spectacle, some even filming it.
Aware that saying more could only compound the situation, she wisely kept silent. Particularly when she encountered an individual who stared at her with a manic glint in their eye, she sensed that something was awry.
“I’ll escort you back,” Su MO intervened, his voice hushed. “Don’t say a word.
Leave this matter to me.”
By now, whispers pervaded the crowd.
“Is he ill? Can he actually transform into a wolf? Is he from some influential family?”
“Why the sudden change in appearance? His hair’s gone black. Did he consume some sort of elixir?”
“Didn’t you see it just now? No elixir was involved. He bit her, right there.”
“That woman seems to be some ancient food live-streamer, right? She appears to have extensive knowledge, even capable of addressing mental breakdowns.”
“Remember, she shared the antidote recipe for the loyalty potion earlier. Could she be an apothecary?”
“Could her flesh have some mystical properties?”
The final hypothesis garnered unanimous agreement. Realizing the gravity of the situation, Su MO promptly summoned a few soldiers to escort Liao Ning back to her quarters.
“I’ll find a way to downplay what just occurred,” Su Mo’s typically playful grin vanished, replaced by a more somber expression. “We’ll discuss this later. You all stay in the same room tonight. Don’t separate. I’ll reinforce the guards at the door.”
Su MO had a wealth of experience in intelligence, having encountered various races with unique abilities over the years. However, once such abilities were exposed, they could pose a grave threat to the respective race.
For instance, the merfolk’s strength eventually turned them into mere playthings and puppet armies for the empire. Similarly, the elves, with their potion-making skills, were imprisoned by both the empire and nobles to endlessly craft various concoctions.
In Liao Ning’s case, she might have attracted the attention of someone with sinister motives.
Su MO was well aware of this, and so was Zhou Ling. He immediately issued instructions, “When we depart tomorrow, we’ll leave as soon as the supplies are ready. The entire army will depart together.”
After a moment of contemplation, Su MO nodded. “I’ll inform the troops right away. Given the number of people joining this mission, it might take some time. We’ll leave in two hours. Do not leave this room again.”
Liao Ning felt a tinge of anxiety. She had observed the expressions of those around her earlier—they had looked at her as if she were an invaluable treasure. Among the space station’s inhabitants, there were likely refugees, but there might also be interstellar space pirates posing as refugees or spies from other planets. Her safety was undoubtedly at risk.
Zhou Ling tended to her wound and offered reassurance. “I won’t let any harm come to you. Trust me.”
Before Liao Ning could respond, a commotion erupted outside the room. It seemed that a substantial number of people had arrived and clashed with the guards stationed at the door.
These individuals clearly sought Liao Ning, and their room was situated deep within the innermost area. Although they could attempt to escape, they had recently exposed themselves. Venturing out might lead to their entrapment.
In this tense moment, Davies urgently exclaimed, “Come over to my side!”
The small group swiftly converged around Davies. His body emitted a soft green glow, and he promptly harnessed the Multi-Feather Butterfly’s unique ability to alter everyone’s appearance.
Next, he released a sprinkle of scale powder from his wings and applied it to the spot where Liao Ning had been bitten moments ago. Remarkably, the wound on her skin vanished instantly.
“The scale powder can only conceal the wound; it doesn’t possess healing properties. However, it should maintain your altered appearance for a day or two. Just try to stay close to me, ” Davies explained.
The clamor beyond the door escalated, punctuated by the unmistakable sounds of weapons discharging. Through the window, they witnessed a multitude of people fleeing in fear and departing in aircraft.
Zhou Ling wasted no time in making a decision. “Let’s exploit the chaos and make our escape. We’ll reach out to Su MO once we’re safe. Stay together, and don’t get separated..”
