Zhan Long Chapter 837

Chapter 837
I was shrouded in boundless darkness, hard to breathe and unable to move . I heard many people calling me and smelled a strong odor of medicines, but I could only lie here in the darkness as if my body didn’t belong to me anymore .
Death, what did it feel like?
Death meant: there was neither pain nor joy; there was no five senses or perception; there would be no you in the world . The people around you would live in the same way as before, but only your traces were erased .
If I died, what would Lin Wan Er do?
If I died, what would happen to Zhan Long?
If I died, was there somebody who would miss me?
If I died, was there somebody who would cry for me at night?
If I died, had the Blood Scythes been eradicated completely?
…
I was drifting in and out of consciousness . I couldn’t control anything but only had to wait for the verdict of life . I didn’t even know whether I was alive or dead . I lay alone in the dark, unable to do anything or change anything .
But suddenly, a sound of “Brother Xiao Yao” rang in my ears . That was Dong Cheng Lei’s naive and innocent voice . I felt a prickling sensation in my heart . “Ah, ah” I whispered . I gained consciousness and remembered everything .
“He wakes up . He wakes up!”
At my side, there was a crying sound from Lin Wan Er .
Next, I heard a flurry of footsteps . Then, I heard the voices of Li Mu, Song Han, Ran Min, Matcha, Yue Qing Qian, and others . Did they all gather here?
I opened my eyes with great effort and finally saw them . I found my entire body wrapped in gauze and lay in a ward full of people . Song Han, Ran Min, and Hu Li looked at me with red eyes, who may have stayed up for a long time . As for Lin Wan Er, her eyes were red and swollen, and I really didn’t know how she came through the period during my coma .
I stretched out my hand wrapped in gauze to touch Lin Wan Er’s small hand softly, “Wan Er, I’m fine . Wan Er, don’t cry . ”
Lin Wan Er nodded, but the tears slipped down her face . Her long eyelashes were still stained with tears . She nodded, “You’re all right, you’re all right…”
I exhaled and breathed out the turbid Qi that had accumulated in my chest for a long time . Then I struggled hard to sit up, but I couldn’t control my body to move . Lin Wan Er hurried to help me lean on the bed . I looked at everyone and asked, “How long have I been unconscious?”
“Seven days . ”
Song Han was on the verge of tears and said in a shaky voice, “Brother Xiao Yao, we really thought you couldn’t survive from the serious wound . Lin Wan Er and Qing Qian have been crying these days . We don’t know how to comfort them . Fortunately… You’re all right . That’s great!”

“7 days, so long…”
I relieved and suddenly felt pain in my heart . Lowering my head, I said, “Dong Cheng…Dong Cheng, how is she…”
Song Han said, “You turned your face and looked behind . ”
When I turned my body desperately, I found that Dong Cheng Yue standing there with tears in her eyes . Tears falling down her face, she cried, “You and brother are stupid, big idiots…”
I whimpered, “Dong Cheng…Dong Cheng is fine… It’s great . ”
Dong Cheng Yue sat down on the ground, leaning over the bed . Tears falling on the white sheets, she said with a hoarse voice, “But my brother died… He died…”
My heart was painful as if being stabbed by a knife . I touched Dong Cheng Yue’s long hair and said, “Dong Cheng, don’t cry . Ah Lei won’t want to see you so sad . He loves you so much . As long as you live happily, Ah Lei will be happy in heaven, too . ”
Dong Cheng Yue cried and nodded .
I looked up and said, “Li Mu, Wang Jian, Bai Qi, Lian Po, Qing Qian, Wei Liang, are you all here?”
Li Mu touched his nose, and his eyes got red . He said, “The guild master of Zhan Long has been so seriously injured . Of course, we all are here . If you just leave us, what should we do?”
……
At this moment, the door of the ward was opened, doctors and nurses rushed in, and the doctor said, “Let the patient take a rest . Staying here for a few days, you must get tired . Quickly go back and take a break . ”
Saying that, he immediately came over to check my body health, and the nurse checked my heartbeat . I smiled bitterly and said to everyone, “Well, go to rest . After I leave the hospital tomorrow, I’ll treat you all . ”
“Leave the hospital tomorrow?” The nurse looked at me and said, “You’re seriously injured, how can you leave the hospital tomorrow?”
I said with a smile, “I know my body better than you . ”
When I spoke just now, I’ve checked my physical condition myself . The tissue damage had recovered rapidly, and even the damaged heart and lungs had self healed most of them . Moreover, thanks to the effect of achieving the Yang Yan Level, almost every cell in my body was now tens of times stronger than before and even searing power of life could derive from my inner strength at any time . Although I’ve got seriously injured, as long as I remained conscious, I could leave the hospital after a day of self-healing .
Li Mu, Yue Qing Qian, Song Han, Matcha, and others were all exhausted and had gone back to rest . Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue didn’t want to leave me and they had to sleep on my side . Fortunately, the bed of the VIP ward was large enough . The two beauties fell asleep with clothes and didn’t feel crowded . However, the doctor seemed to look at me with a strange look . He must be wondering why the two beauties accompanied me even though I was in hospital .

……
Before long, the ward door opened again . I saw a few police officers from the base was guarding there, but there were also a few people who walked straight in, Lin Tiannan, Wang Xin, Shen Bing, Dong Cheng Feng, and Xing Lie .
Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue sat up, rubbing their beautiful eyes . They two had been staying at my side and nothing could be averted suspicion .
At a quick step, Wang Xin walked in, staring at me . He looked very happy and began to laugh like a child, then said to Lin Tian Nan, “What I said? This guy is lucky, haha… you didn’t be killed even in that situation . Li Xiao Yao, you are so lucky!”
I said, “Something still on my mind, I am loath to leave…”
Lin Tian Nan also smiled gratifiedly and said, “If you are really gone, my daughter has to take a few years to before she is recovering . Fortunately, you are kind enough and doesn’t leave this mortal world . ”
My gaze focused on Dong Cheng Feng, suddenly feeling a pain in my heart . I said with a guilty look, “Uncle Dong Cheng, I am sorry, I… I have not been able to protect Ah-Lei…”
Dong Cheng Feng’s eyes reddened with gratitude, he said, “Ah-Lei… he could have a brother like you who fight for him . Ah-Lei is definitely very happy in heaven… Li Xiao Yao, you don’t have to blame yourself, without you, Yue’er may not be saved in such a short time …”
I asked, “How was Dong Cheng Yue saved?”
Wang Xin said, “When you were fighting Ouyang Chuan, the guy named Tang Qi sneaked into the interior of Blood Scythes, killing 7 Artificials and saving Dong Cheng Yue unscathed . ”
I nodded, “Oh, well, Tang Qi is really courageous…”
Folding her arms in her breast, Shen Bing looked at me and said, “Even if Tang Qi is courageous enough, he is no match for you, Li Xiao Yao, do you know how many people you have killed that night? Including Ouyang Chuan, there are a total of 113 people who were killed by your Xiao Hei!”
I closed my eyes and slowly leaned against the bed, my body trembled slightly, “I… I didn’t think so much at that time…”
Lin Tiannan soothed me, “You don’t have to blame yourself . The people you killed deserve it . ”
Look at Dong Cheng Yue and Lin Wan Er around me, I couldn’t help but be glad that they were not there when I was killing those people . I could even be shocked by myself like that . I asked: “How is the handling of Blood Scythes?”
Wang Xin said: “Wei Fan shifted all the blame on Ouyang Chuan, but we destroyed their research base, and the Artificials were almost wiped out . However, Wei Fan has directly sued us first – it’s really the guilty party files the suit first . But never mind, the people of Blood Scythes have been almost cleaned up . Wei Fan’s crimes are legion as well, so we can get even with him afterward . Anyway, he couldn’t make any trouble since he has lost a large group of supporters . ”
“Ou Yang Chuan has been killed, hasn’t he?” I asked .
Wang Xin nodded and said, “He was killed by you, you should know it clearer than us . ”
With a sigh of relief, I replied, “That’s fine, so… I can make sure that… in the area of several thousand miles, no one will be my opponent…”
With a smile, Wang Xin said, “Li Xiao Yao, did you go to the next stage – the Yang Yan Level?”
With a shock, I said, “How… how do you know that?”
“Ha-ha…”
Wang Xin kept laughing, “I saw the scene of your killing on the camera . Xiao Hei can actually ignite the flame . This kind of flame is exactly the same as Ouyang Chuan’s, and if you don’t have Yang Yan power, I think you can’t have killed Ouyang Chuan, so I thought you had broken through the Yang Yan Level . ”
Wang Xin spoke with excitement, “That’s awesome, now our Guardian Squad of Hang Zhou has a superior of Yang Yan Level, no evil-doers dare have a chip on our shoulder!”
I said, “Where’s Wei Fan? Has he been arrested?”
“He has been put into the prison . ”
“That’s fine . ”
“But soon his friend will free him on bail pending an appeal . We have no direct evidence that Wei Fan has been involved in the Blood Scythes and Artificials, so he can only be detained for a few days . ”
I sighed, “Will such a bastard be released to do harm to others?”
Shen Bing said, “The law strives for evidence, we will try our best . ”
“OK!”
I raised my head and looked at Dong Cheng Feng, saying, “Uncle Dong Cheng, is the funeral of Ah-Lei over?”
Dong Cheng Feng nodded, “Yes . ”
I choked with sobs, “I want to visit his grave after discharging from the hospital tomorrow, can I?”
“Fine . ” Dong Cheng Feng said with a sigh, “It should . ”
…
As soon as I thought about the death of Dong Cheng Lei, my heart still wrenched . Ah-Lei, a good fellow, was gone .

Ruins of Dalághast
I've been writing for as long as I can remember, but I'd always been torn between different projects. That's why I decided to dedicate myself to a pretty strict schedule of writing and editing a single chapter every month since the start of 2019. This is an ongoing, work in progress novel that follows a ragtag group of sellswords as they delve into a lost city on the edge of the known world in search of their fortunes. Within, though, they find much more than they ever expected and find themselves in a race against time to unravel a mystery centuries old. For those who want to see my work months earlier than it will be released here, alongside exclusive artwork and other perks, consider supporting me and my work on Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/atlaswrites

Thorns of Jade [A Progression Fantasy LitRPG Adventure]
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Solo Leveling meets Chainsaw Man in this fun new LitRPG Series To become the king of Kissen, Noah Hearts trains to become the strongest swordsman in the world. The only problem — he can’t use Aura at all! Everything changes when he’s left for dead in a forest on the Kissen Fields… In a world where horrific creatures known as “demons” terrorize mankind, those who wield the mysterious force known as “aura” are the only ones who can fight them. These fighters call themselves the “Wolves of Haven”, and strive to create a world where demons no longer roam their lands! Though Noah Hearts is an exceptional swordfighter for a young man, his total inability to use aura means he could never hope to defeat the demons! Despite this major setback, he still hopes to become the king of Kissen and create a better world for those in his country! As he walks home from his daily training, his world is shifted upside down when he sees a few familiar faces in his home… This is the first draft of what I want to be a 9 volume series. I'll be editing, rewriting, and releasing the volumes on Amazon once they're finished. I'll admit, I'm finishing chapters in sprints because I want to participate in the writathon (Apr. 2022) so I apologize if there are some issues with the prose. Point them out to me and I'll fix them! Anyway, I have no backlog, but I plan on uploading chapters as I finish them. I don't want to spend weeks re-editing and never publishing like I used to, so I'm just gonna post when it's done. Like I said, this story is my take on a mix between solo leveling and chainsaw man. Specifically, the MC is the only one that can consciously level up (sort of), and the plot is fast paced and emotional just like chainsaw man. There are plenty of other inspirations, like HxH, Jojo, JJK, Cradle, and even FF6, but the first two are the biggest. Basically, if you don't like Shounen stuff, this probably isn't the story for you. Regardless, I hope you all like the story!
