"Blood?" The two girls trembled when they saw their hands covered in red liquid.
"Whose blood is this!?"
"Are you hurt!?"
Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin asked simultaneously, and their faces looked extremely panicked and anxious. It couldn't be a light wound since the blood on their hands was so much.
Tenku knew why the two girls looked panicked. It was because of the blood from the wound on his back. He was in a rush to return to the cave and confirm Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue's situation, but he had forgotten to change out of his wet clothes and cover his wounds with bandages.
"Ah, that is…." Tenku intends to explain it to them. But before he could continue his words, the two girls examined his body impatiently. They examined him from head to toe and then his back.
"What!?" Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue were shocked when they saw a large, deep scar stretched from his right shoulder to his left waist. It was very scary because some of Tenku's bones were visible from the wound.
"You… How can you get such a big wound and stay calm as if nothing happened!?" Wang Ruyue said hysterically.
"Because I'm used to it?" Tenku answered uncertainly.
Ever since he had been cultivating under Wang Haotian's tutelage, Tenku was frequently injured. Be it during training or fighting monsters, that old man wouldn't allow him to use potions or elixirs to speed up his healing or ease his pain. Wang Haotian wanted his disciple to get used to it.
Every time Tenku gets injured, he feels pain. But after that, he forgot about it because the pain suddenly disappeared. The wounds on his body would slowly recover and regenerate automatically. That was one of the advantages that Tenku got from training the Tyrant King Body Tempering Art.
"What did you do to get used to injuries like that!? We have to treat it now!" Huang Yuxin looked at Tenku in distress, and tears rolled down from her eyes.
"Yes, she's right! We must return to the competition area immediately and get the medical team to treat your injuries! If it is not treated quickly, it will only get worse!" Wang Ruyue nodded in agreement and cried because she felt guilty about Tenku's condition.
The two girls each held Tenku's hand. Huang Yuxin is on the left, and Wang Ruyue is on the right. Then they pulled Tenku without waiting for a reply from him and left Wang Haotian behind.
"After the boy came, they immediately forgot about me. My granddaughter didn't even spare me a glance." Wang Haotian sighed and shook his head.
"It's good to be young. But when I see them, I remember my youth. At that time, I was also surrounded by many girls, all of whom were rare beauties." Wang Haotian said nostalgically and followed the three people slowly.
Tenku and the others didn't take long to return to the competition area. Along the way, they encountered low-level monsters, and Wang Ruyue asked Wang Haotian to fight them as punishment for lying. Tenku returned badly injured after that old man said confidently that his disciple would be fine even if two seventh-level monsters chased him. The two girls were displeased that Wang Haotian had lied to them.
Wang Haotian reluctantly followed his granddaughter's punishment after he received a piercing glare from her. He would rather kill those low-level monsters than see Wang Ruyue angry at him.
Another reason Wang Ruyue asked her grandfather to fight the monsters was that she didn't want to leave Tenku's side, just like Huang Yuxin on the other side. The two girls kept holding his hand and supporting him like he was seriously injured.
Tenku could only sigh and follow the two girls even though he was treated like that. He had complained several times, but they didn't want to listen to him and instead held his hand tighter with the excuse of helping him walk. Neither of them wanted to let him go, and Tenku felt the competition between the girls.
Since departing from the cave in the valley to the competition area, they focused on listening to Tenku's stories about what had happened to him when the two Fenrirs were chasing him. Upon hearing it, the two girls were extremely shocked.
Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue felt sad and guilty for making Tenku go through such a life-and-death situation. But Tenku quickly changed the topic of their conversation after feeling that the atmosphere between the two girls had darkened.
After arriving at their destination, Tenku saw many monster corpses scattered everywhere around the battle arena. He also noticed that the number of Realizers in the area had increased significantly, and some were very strong. Apart from them, Tenku also found disciples from the five major families fighting lone wolves and werewolves.
Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin also joined in the fight against the monsters because Wang Haotian suddenly had to go to see the patriarch of the Wang family. So they have to face the lone wolves and werewolves themselves. The two girls easily incinerated and sliced the low-level monsters with their Phantasmal Objects
They walked closer to the battle arena, but the footsteps of the two girls beside Tenku suddenly stopped after they heard a notification sound from their smartphones. Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue quickly checked the message, and they frowned after knowing its contents.
"What's wrong with you two? Why are you guys making such expressions?" Tenku asked in confusion after seeing the two girls' faces suddenly change.
"I got a message from the Realizer organization to gather near the great wall of China." Wang Ruyue replied.
"Me too." Huang Yuxin added.
"Did something bad happen?" Tenku asked another question.
"I don't know. But it seems that one of the senior Ralizers acting as the leader wants to gather members of the organization in this area for a monster extermination mission in Badaling National Forest Park." Wang Ruyue shook her head and explained.
"I also think that way. They might want to give direct instructions for this mission." Huang Yuxin nodded in agreement with Wang Ruyue's words.
"I understand. If so, you'd better go there immediately. It's not good if you make the others wait for you." Tenku didn't want the girls to keep company with him and interfere with their duties as Realizer.
"Will you be okay if we leave you in that condition?" Huang Yuxin asked worriedly.
"Yes, there are still a lot of monsters around here. It would be dangerous if you fought in that condition. How about we take you to the infirmary or my grandfather?" Wang Ruyue had to take Tenku to a safer place to put her heart at ease.
"I agree with her. We'd better take you to the infirmary first before going there." Huang Yuxin thought the same thing as Wang Ruyue.
"You don't have to do that. Do you think I'm too weak to be protected by two girls? Have you guys forgotten that I managed to survive after being chased by two Fenrirs in a berserk state? So you don't need to worry about me. I can still take care of myself." Tenku manifested a Golden Revolver and aimed it at the werewolves near them.
Bang!
Tenku's attack shot out with terrifying speed and instantly blew the monster's head off. He purposely showed it to them so the two girls would stop worrying about him. But it was useless, as he could still see the worry on their faces.
"But…" Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin spoke simultaneously but were quickly interrupted by him.
"No buts. Now you have to go to the great wall of China to meet the Realizers. After your business is done, you can see me again. I'll be waiting for you near the battle arena since many Realizers and cultivators are fighting there. I'm sure I'll be fine with them." Tenku tried to calm the two girls' hearts and convinced them to go to their meeting place quickly.
"Okay. But I'll get back to you as soon as I finish my business. You must wait for me in that place!" Wang Ruyue reluctantly complied with Tenku's words.
"Yes, me too! Please don't go anywhere because we will have difficulty finding you. We tried contacting your smartphone before, but it was not active. Besides that, there are still many monsters roaming in this area. I know you are strong, but you are badly injured now.
Wait for us to come back, and we will accompany you to find a medical team and treat your wound!" Huang Yuxin didn't want to lose to Wang Ruyue and she tried to give him more care. She could call him since they exchanged contacts after returning from their sparring match last night.
"I know. I will surely wait for you here. About why I can't be contacted, it seems my smartphone ran out of battery and turned off." Tenku smiled and showed his wet smartphone after he threw himself into the river.
"No wonder we couldn't get in touch with you." Wang Ruyue finally understood why Tenku couldn't be contacted when she saw his wet smartphone.
"It turns out that your smartphone is broken." Huang Yuxin nodded.
"No. I thought my smartphone was turned off before falling into the river." Tenku shook his head and denied their thoughts.
"Alright. You'd better go to the great wall of China now. You'll be late if you keep doing Q&A with me. Are you guys wasting your time here on purpose?" Tenku said before the two girls could reply.
"Okay. we will go." Huang Yuxin said in embarrassment because Tenku realized what she was thinking.
"In that case, we will be taking our leave now. Please take good care of yourself, and don't go overboard with that wound." Wang Ruyue nodded and obediently followed his words. Even though the two girls were reluctant to leave Tenku alone in that condition, they had to meet the other Realizers because that was the mission's instructions.
"I understand." Tenku smiled, and the two girls quickly left the place. They want to finish their business and return to Tenku quickly.
After Huang Yuxin and wang Ruyue disappeared from his sight, Tenku wandered around the battle arena, killing low-level monsters. He found some acquaintances who were fighting the lone wolves in that place.
They were Su Lingxu, Kong Ming, and a few Wang family disciples. Tenku had no intention of approaching them and making them aware of his presence, especially Su Lingxu. He found it difficult every time he faced that girl.
He also saw several people from the Gu family in the area, and one of them was Gu Yuxuan, Gu Qingyang's grandfather. That person didn't notice that Tenku was watching him because he and several Realizers were busy fighting dozens of werewolves.
Tenku walked around the competition area for quite a while and killed many low-level monsters. Even though it did not increase his strength, he could sell the monster cores from them for his needs. After this matter was over, Tenku intended to enter seclusion and try to break through to the Great Perfection realm of the Sky Origin realm and increase the phase of the Golden Revolver.
While Tenku was checking the situation around him, Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue returned after finishing their business. The two quickly took positions to his right and left with almost zero distance. After confirming his condition was fine, they immediately took him to a medical team to treat his wound.
Tenku gave up as they grabbed him from both sides and pulled him away from the scene. The three people did not know that there was a camera continuously recording the situation in the area, including their actions.
