"Is it that magical?"
After listening to Wu Ye Lin's introduction, Ye Feng took one and started eating.
"Delicious... sweet and juicy... and it really has a restorative effect..."
After two bites, Ye Feng was surprised. He could clearly feel the pain from his wounds all over his body lessening and becoming comfortable.
And in a moment, he felt the unique itching sensation of wounds healing and recovering...
"Kacha~Qua~!"
Soon, an apple-sized Hua Tuo Fruit was eaten by Ye Feng, and his complexion improved considerably.
"You keep this!"
Ye Feng took another Hua Tuo Fruit and pushed the remaining one back.
"But Ye Feng, Grandpa said..."
Before Wu Ye Lin could finish speaking, Ye Feng interrupted, "Eating too many of these fruits doesn't mean much to me. You should keep one for emergencies! If your grandfather asks, just say it was my insistence!"
"Then... alright!"
Wu Ye Lin frowned. "I'll keep this Hua Tuo Fruit for now. If you want to eat it, just come to me anytime!"
"The Explorer's Guild suffered quite heavy losses this time... many areas have turned into ruins... there's even raging fire..."
Ye Feng looked into the distance, mumbling as he ate the Hua Tuo Fruit.
"Ye Feng, the rebellion instigated by Zeng Jing, the Huang family, the Lu family, and a large group of people in the Explorer's Guild has basically been quelled. That place you see burning fiercely is my grandfather's doing!"
Wu Ye Lin stepped forward and continued.
"Your grandfather's doing?"
Ye Feng looked at Wu Ye Lin somewhat puzzled, because the places he saw burning fiercely were more than one, and the flames and scope were quite large.
"Mm!"
Wu Ye Lin nodded. "Those places are poisonous tunnels created by the Lu family. They are extensive and contain a lot of toxic gas. If we dug them open directly, it would be difficult to clean up. So, grandfather simply ordered them to be set on fire to burn off the toxic gas. However, the toxic gas has been burning for several days and has not been reduced much. We may need to explore further in a few days!"
"I see!~"
Ye Feng mumbled and swallowed the rest of the Hua Tuo Fruit in one gulp.
"Speaking of which, Ye Feng, the quick quelling of the rebellion by the Zeng, Huang, and Lu families in the Explorer's Guild this time is thanks to you!"
At this moment, Wu Ye Lin spoke again, her voice filled with excitement and joy.
"Thanks to me?"
Ye Feng was a little confused. If it were Xikela, Iliyas... he could understand, but he didn't interfere with other rebellions...
"Yes!"
Wu Ye Lin let out a sigh. "While you were fighting fiercely with Xikela and Iliyas, I, along with Uncle Liu and Senior Miao Dao, went to deal with the remaining members of the Zeng, Huang, and Lu families who were rebelling..."
"The Zeng, Huang, and Lu families had been preparing for this rebellion for many years, and their infiltration was very deep. Even many high-ranking personnel in the City Guard were their people..."
"We initially thought that dealing with this rebellion would be very tricky and take a long time. But unexpectedly, it went very smoothly because a large number of Gold-level neutral explorers joined our side..."
"Most of those Gold-level explorers were people who had previously bought the magical absorption array clothes from you. They must have helped out of respect for you... Wang San and Zhao Su did a lot, as well as the Scorpion and Big Iron Bull..."
"At that time, some of them were old men in their fifties wearing silk stockings, some were clearly burly men wearing pink dresses, and some wore green hats... It made many people gape..."
Wu Ye Lin quickly explained to Ye Feng.
"Whoa... so that's how it is!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng was quite surprised.
Afterward, Wu Ye Lin chatted with Xiao Xiao and Qiao Ying for a while, and after urging Ye Feng to rest more, she left.
After all, although the rebellion in the Explorer's Guild had been quelled, such a major event still had many things to deal with...
...
In the evening,
While Ye Feng was sleeping soundly on a soft bed, Wu Ye Lin and her grandfather Wu Ye Lan were standing on the balcony of a tall building, overlooking the ravaged Explorer's Guild.
The sun was setting, and the sunset, which should have been beautiful, now appeared somewhat bleak due to the dire state of the Explorer's Guild.
"Grandpa, the preliminary loss statistics are out. The losses are immense. Almost all landmark buildings were attacked, more than half of the main buildings have collapsed... A large amount of supplies in the warehouses were stolen, burned, or damaged... Personnel losses are also very significant..."
Wu Ye Lin held a stack of documents and quickly reported to Wu Ye Lan.
"Xiao Lin, after this battle, you should understand why I said before that neither the Explorer's Guild nor the other seven major powers have a future!"
Wu Ye Lan sighed and said to Wu Ye Lin.
"Wha... what?"
"Grandpa Shen Potian also said this before..."
Wu Ye Lin looked quite confused, because Wu Ye Lan had told her this very seriously before, but she had never understood what it meant.
"Xiao Lin, do you think the Explorer's Guild can withstand an attack from another Divine Envoy-level individual?"
Wu Ye Lan turned and looked at her granddaughter with a meaningful gaze.
"Let alone someone of Iliyas's level, even a regular Hell Three-headed Dog, or a Divine Stone experiment subject from the Zeng Jing Demon Forest... could probably turn the Explorer's Guild upside down..."
"No matter how well we built our city before... in the face of someone like a Divine Envoy, it's just fleeting smoke... the power of space can turn rivers and seas upside down, and change the world with a flick of a hand..."
Wu Ye Lan let out a long sigh and continued, "This is also why Shen Potian's mecha city looks quite ordinary, even somewhat crude. He's basically used it to explore and improve his strength..."
"I have a feeling that if Iliyas had targeted the mecha city this time, both Iliyas and Xikela would have died at his hands!"
"Although the outside world has always rumored that Shen Potian's strength is at the peak of Diamond... but in a real fight... even I, who have gone through the tribulation fire and entered the Epic level, dare not say I can definitely defeat him..."
"In a life-and-death struggle, I'm afraid I would..."
At the end, Wu Ye Lan's expression was somewhat emotional.
"Gra... Grandpa, Divine Envoys... Divine Servants, such powerful enemies... will they... still target us?"
"And that demon awakened one... he has already obtained the Dark God Book... He... should not... harm us anymore..."
As she spoke to the end, Wu Ye Lin's voice became somewhat weak, and her eyes showed an irrepressible fear.
After all, the overwhelming power displayed by the Divine Envoy and Xikela before had left Wu Ye Lin with no hope at all...
