Chapter 1081: This Is My Responsibility
"Everything is my responsibility. The Captain and Anna, who was providing long-range support, had already judged that the situation was unfavorable for us, but I insisted on having my own way. Kuangtu... he was only injured like this to save me," Ling Yun said loudly. "I will bear all the responsibility."
"What will you bear?" Chen Yu tapped his right hand on Kuangtu, channeling Original Power to protect his heart meridian.
Then he glanced at her coldly: "If Kuangtu dies, what responsibility can you bear? Responsibility can be shouldered, but can a person be brought back to life?"
"This is your comrade-in-arms, someone you can safely entrust your back to on the battlefield, yet he died, and you are the one who caused it. If such a thing really happened, what responsibility could you possibly bear?"
Ling Yun said nothing. She was deeply regretful now; perhaps if she hadn't insisted on having her own way in the village, this wouldn't have happened.
"Go kneel outside, don't delay me in saving him," Chen Yu said impatiently. "Everyone out."
The group was startled, but considering that Chen Yu possessed such powerful strength, it was possible that he might actually be able to save Kuangtu.
So everyone hurriedly walked out. Chen Yu had them close the door, then began to apply needles and perform acupuncture.
"The Space Imprisonment Gem on the opponent's chest—its power is truly terrifying," Chen Yu thought, his brows slightly locked as he performed acupuncture while observing the injuries on Kuangtu's body.
Having clashed with the people of A San twice, he had already seen the clues; the cultivation method of A San is "Communicating with Gods."
The so-called Communicating with Gods means using one's own ability to communicate with deities, and then obtaining power from them.
The gods of the A-San Divine Sect should be in the Asura Hell, but why they are there, Chen Yu did not know.
In fact, their own power is pitifully weak, but the Amiluo he encountered this time clearly had extraordinary strength. He wore a gem, and inside this gem was Divine Power; this was also the reason why Chen Yu failed to kill him with the Divine Travel Thousand Miles technique.
With Chen Yu's current strength, saving people could be said to be effortless. Although Kuangtu was heavily injured and his internal organs were displaced, Chen Yu's miraculous hands brought him back to life. After one hour, Kuangtu's life was considered saved.
Moreover, because of the injection of Original Power, his strength would not be impaired; on the contrary, his future strength would be even greater.
When Chen Yu walked out, all six people were outside, and Ling Yun was kneeling on the ground.
"Mr. Chen, how is it?" When Chen Yu walked out, everyone felt very nervous inside.
"Is there anyone I cannot save?" Chen Yu smiled: "Rest assured, he is resting now. He will be full of vigor tomorrow, and there will be no obstacles in his body. He can continue to go to the battlefield in the future."
"Really?" Everyone was overjoyed; this was the best news they had heard in the last two days.
"Of course it's true," Chen Yu said. "Don't go in and disturb him."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Everyone stood straight and gave Chen Yu a military salute.
They were very grateful to Chen Yu. To them, the person Chen Yu saved was not only their comrade-in-arms but also family to all of them. If it weren't for Chen Yu this time, they would have lost a loved one.
The crowd dispersed, with only Ling Yun silently following behind Chen Yu.
"If you have something to say, just say it," Chen Yu stopped and said indifferently. "If you want to thank me, there is no need. I am also Huaxia."
"I owe you a life," Ling Yun lowered her head. "If you ever have a need, you can take my life at any time, or let me do anything for you."
"No need. Just keep your own life and fulfill your own duties," Chen Yu said indifferently. "Your superiors entrusted you to me, so I have the responsibility to bring you all back safely. This is also my duty."
"Can I... be as powerful as you?" Ling Yun gathered her courage and looked at Chen Yu.
"No," Chen Yu directly dispelled her idea. "Not everyone can become a Dharma Cultivator. Your natural talent and spirituality limit you."
"Why can you, but I cannot?" Ling Yun was unwilling to accept this.
"There are many reasons, but I don't want to explain," Chen Yu said indifferently. "Just do your own job well and don't think too much."
"Then can I become stronger?" Ling Yun asked again.
"That is possible. Although I cannot make you a Dharma Cultivator, I can make you very strong, becoming the ceiling among ordinary humans," Chen Yu said.
"Then can you teach me?" Ling Yun looked at Chen Yu with anticipation.
"Give me a reason why I must teach you?" Chen Yu glanced at her. "If it's just to satisfy your vanity, then forget it."
"No, I have my mission. From the moment I entered the army, I knew the responsibility I carried. I want to become stronger just to contribute more to Huaxia, nothing more," Ling Yun raised her head and looked at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu stared at Ling Yun, and Ling Yun looked back at Chen Yu without backing down. After a long time, Chen Yu said: "I will consider it."
Ling Yun nodded. She understood that Chen Yu was no ordinary person, and a master taking on an apprentice must surely undergo many considerations. This was a matter of fate, so it could not be forced.
The defense map of Zha'erke had already been retrieved, but Chen Yu did not intend to rush to find Saluo. He had to give the Brahma Sect some time to gather their experts.
"Mr. Chen, Amin is here," just then, Yu Qiao walked over and said respectfully.
"Oh, let him in," Chen Yu nodded. Amin coming over must mean there was some important matter to report. With no more obstacles for Mr. Ming, everything would be smooth sailing from now on, right?
"Mr. Chen, everything has been resolved. Mr. Ming has already taken control of the situation, and he would like to invite Mr. Chen to gather at the Council Pavilion," Amin smiled.
"I go to the Council Pavilion? That is the military command center of your S Country, the place where important matters are handled. Isn't it inappropriate for me to go?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned. What was Mr. Ming doing? He was showing goodwill to him.
"Mr. Chen, the reason Mr. Ming was able to control the situation is entirely because of you, so he is very grateful to you. He does not treat Mr. Chen as an outsider, so please do not refuse," Amin said respectfully.
"Alright then, I will go to the Council Pavilion and have a chat with Mr. Ming," Chen Yu smiled slightly and went out with Amin.
The Council Pavilion of S Country, to be precise, was the military command office. Many major events in the country were discussed here with the various Grand Directors.
When Chen Yu arrived, Mr. Ming was waving his brush and splashing ink to write. Mr. Ming was very fond of Huaxia culture, especially calligraphy and the tea ceremony.
He wielded his brush, and after a moment, several large characters were already on the paper. These characters were "Peace Under Heaven."
