Chapter 160
If other people said that, it would inevitably make one feel condemned.
What did he mean when he asked who else did Nori kill? There were no evil ways there.
However, since it was Ian who asked that question, none of them felt violated.
After all, Nori did indeed kill many people.
Yet, surprisingly, none of them were able to pick fault with his actions.
Moreover, the fact that he blocked anyone from advancing toward the finish line when they were 20 meters away was enough for him to enter Evergreen Town’s and even the Dark Moon Sect’s annals of apprenticeships.
Besides that, no one ever showed such a powerful performance like Jamie.
When he heard Ian’s question, Nori raised the storage sack high.
However, he suddenly felt pain in his chest and heart.
Due to the intense agony, Nori felt his sight had gone black for a moment, and he almost fainted.
The long accumulated injuries were about to engulf him like a flood.
Among these wounds, Zephyr’s slap and Jack‘s Talisman of Concentrated Vitality were the most extreme as one severely injured Nori’s body, and the other directly destroyed his amulet.
The fact that he persisted until now was an incredible miracle.
‘No.
I have to at least inform James that Milos’s not back yet before I pass out…’
Just as the thought flashed in his mind, Nori noticed his body fell uncontrollably.
In a daze, he seemed to see George, Jamie, and the others exclaimed as they ran over.
Nori lost control of his hand, and he let go of the storage sack.
The heads stored inside all tumbled out like balls.
When the crowd was once in an uproar, Nori felt he was swallowed into an abyss of darkness.
***
Without knowing it, five days passed by.
On the surface, Evergreen Town appeared to have restored its former peace, but many matters that quietly brewed surging in the dark at this moment.
In a heavily guarded room inside Lawrence Fort, Nori laid in the bed.
He was wrapped with white bandages all over him, and a strong medicinal smell came from him.
However, his eyes were tightly shut, and his breathing was slow.
It was as if Nori was unaware of what was happening outside.
George, James, and Ian stood by the window in front of him, and they all had gloomy expressions on their faces.
Nori was yet to wake up since he passed out on the day of Evergreen Town’s competition.
What was more serious was that after Ian, William, and others checked on him, they found out that the 12 energy channels Nori had just condensed were all broken!
The reason for that was simple, Nori suffered severe injuries.
When a warrior was promoted to a Pulse Control Real cultivator, the most obvious display would be the condensing of meridians.
The first stage of the Pulse Control Realm, condensing 12 meridians, while the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm condensing 24 meridians, and the third stage of the Pulse Control Realm condensing 36 meridians.
Each time they improved to another stage, the newly condensed energy channels would be very fragile.
In the later stage, it would take about a month of nurturing to stabilize the meridians completely.
Under normal circumstances, regardless of whether a warrior promoted to a cultivator or a cultivator furthered their stage, they would be extra careful just to ensure their meridians were not damaged.
Hence, not only would they find a safe and secret place to improve, but they would also invite their trusted confidant for protection just in case of accidents.
This time, Nori met a colossal accident.
If his opponents were all warriors, his energy channels would not suffer based on his strength.
However, Nori had to fight against Zephyr, who was a peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator.
Such a realm and strength was already considered the top in Evergreen Town.
Nori also suffered a blow from the Talisman of Concentrated Vitality.
Besides the countless wounds, the strenuous effect after the consumption of Heavenly Fiend Capsules was beyond expectation.
After suffering from severe injuries, it revealed dire consequences.
Later, George, James, and Ian left the room.
Ian’s expression was gloomy from the beginning.
After pondering for a moment, James could not help but ask, “Master Ian, Casper…”
Without waiting for James to finish his sentence, Ian waved his hand and answered, “It’s difficult.
I’ve reported to the elders in the sect, and I have yet to receive any reply.
Not having any news is also equal to bad news.”
When George and James heard that, their hearts abruptly sank.
“I think you’re both aware that I highly appreciated Casper’s ability and potential, and I was optimistic about his future.
Truth be told, when I updated Casper’s situation to the sect before, the elder replied that I must bring him back to Dark Moon Sect no matter what.”
Then, Ian paused a moment before he continued, “The elder was implying that even if Casper had an accident during the Evergreen Town and didn’t get first place, we’d make an exception and bring him back.
However…”
Next, Ian sighed and peeped at the room, and his voice became lower.
“However, you also understood that to strive along the pathway to immortality is difficult, and it’s even crueler in the sects.
To ensure the competitiveness of the sect, the sect will naturally nurture those with potential regardless of the cost, but if he’s a waste…” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Ian did not finish his sentence, and there was a look of extreme regret in his eyes.
At this time, George and James fully understood what Ian was trying to say.
As Nori’s 12 meridians were broken, which was equivalent to saying his road to becoming a cultivator was cut off.
If Nori recovered well, there would still be a chance for him to become a strong warrior.
However, there was no more hope to further his realm.
He just stepped onto the pathway to immortality, but it was abruptly brought to an end.
For those with completely broken meridian and had no hope of furthering their realm like Alder, the sect would not waste any resources on them.
George and James’s faces also darkened, and they sighed.
Ian comforted, “The Lawrence family still has Milos.
Moreover, once Milos enters the sect and directly worships one of the elders’ teaching, I’m afraid it won’t be long until I have to address her as my senior.”
When James heard Ian’s words, his face did not show an expected joyous look.
Instead, James’s expression became more complicated.
“If Milos heard Casper’s situation, she might..”
After Nori passed out, Milos and Solana returned one after another.
Everyone found out what amazing things Nori did during that time from them.
Moreover, Ian also remembered when Milos saw Nori drenched in blood, and she rushed to him, bawling her eyes out.
Then, Ian frowned and shook his head, saying, “Milos is from the Lawrence family, and she’ll surely consider the interest of the family on this matter.
Chief James, you can rest assured.”
James smiled awkwardly.
Although he nodded and agreed, he knew that once Milos found out the Dark Moon Sect had abandoned Alder, she would make a scene.
Nonetheless, James could not help but be puzzled.
It could be said that Milos and Nori did not have a close relationship, so why was she so concerned about him?
