Chapter 1304 Surgery
It was so close to disaster. Hai Shaoxia's heart was pounding, whether from the beating or from being scared, no one knew.

Although the greatest enemy has temporarily fallen before him, Hai Shaoxia knows that it is far from time to let his guard down.

Just like before, Hai Shaoxia controlled the water to wrap around his body, then immediately stood up and lifted Superboy off the ground.

"Don't move!"

Aquaman used a kryptonite cone to press against Superboy's neck, forcing Robin and the others who wanted to move forward to stop.

"Let him go!"

The Martian girl was furious, her eyes flashing with a cruel white light, but she never dared to make a move.

Kryptonians are far too vulnerable to Kryptonite; they're practically made of clay. A slight misstep and a cone-shaped Kryptonite can pierce Superboy's skin.

You have to understand that for Kryptonians, even a tiny bit of Kryptonite left in their bodies is fatal, and the Martian girl couldn't believe her lover would die in front of her.

"I said don't move!"

Hai Shaoxia was extremely ferocious. At this moment, his expression was more ferocious than ever before, and he looked like a trapped beast.

However, the real reason was that his movements were too exaggerated and aggravated his wound.

"Calm down, Jackson." Robin raised his hands to soothe Aquaman's emotions. "We won't move. Calm down too. We can talk things over."

"Let me go."

Hai Shaoxia believed his request was perfectly reasonable. After all, he was already at his wit's end and couldn't possibly ask to leave with Raven. He was already grateful if he could leave on his own.

"You need to understand that we were teammates before, and I know you very well. Don't let me find out if you're up to any dirty tricks."

“Okay, okay, whatever you say.” Robin directed everyone to retreat. “Just be careful with the kryptonite in your hand, and don’t hurt Superboy any further.”

"Just like you said, we used to be teammates. Think about the days we spent together."

Hai Shaoxia remained silent, instead continuing to hold Superboy hostage and slowly make his way towards the museum's emergency exit, only stopping when they were finally close to the safety door.

During this time, Robin and the others maintained a safe distance from the two, and in fact, they had already secretly communicated with each other telepathically.

As soon as Hai Shaoxia releases Super Boy, they will swarm him and capture him.

As Hai Shaoxia just mentioned, as a former vice-captain of the Young Justice League, he often discussed tactics and other issues with Robin.

It can be said that Robin can think of almost anything now, and vice versa.

Therefore, if Hai Shaoxia wants to escape, he must do something that will surprise everyone.

"Sorry, bro."

Aquaman apologized in a voice only he and Superboy could hear, then steeled himself and plunged the cone-shaped kryptonite into the latter's abdomen.

In an instant, bright red blood flowed continuously, and Superboy was completely knocked unconscious by the kryptonite.

Hai Shaoxia's move stunned everyone present until the Martian Girl's scream brought them back to their senses. Having already done it, Hai Shaoxia had no time to hesitate. He shoved Superboy forward, then smashed open the safety door behind him and disappeared from everyone's sight.

At this point, Robin and the others should have been chasing after Aquaman as agreed, but Superboy's injuries dampened everyone's spirits.

At this point, no one had the time to chase after Young Master Hai; everyone practically scrambled to Superboy's side.

Robin, who has some medical knowledge, wanted to stop Superboy's bleeding, but the kryptonite embedded in the latter's body was like a leech, making him feel helpless.

At this point, the kryptonite had completely penetrated Superboy's body, and any mistake would cause even greater damage.

Just as Robin was pondering how to make his move, a heavenly voice rang in his ears.

"What happened?"

Robin turned around and saw Yang Le. The latter had already deactivated his transformation and was walking towards them. Judging from his appearance, he had probably driven back the witch child.

"It's Superboy, he was stabbed by Kryptonite."

Upon hearing this, Yang Le took a running start and accelerated without hesitation, then slid in to the side of the crowd.

"Make room for me so I can check his injuries."

Everyone obediently moved away from Superboy. Even the Martian girl, who was most worried about her boyfriend, chose to remain quiet and obedient, because she knew that everything she did next would determine her lover's life or death.

Yang Le removed Super Boy's shirt and, after a quick check, found that Hai Shaoxia had not made a mistake; the puncture site was something they had practiced several times beforehand.

This position avoids vital organs; if Superboy were David Day, his injury might have been less severe.

"Fortunately, the injuries aren't serious," Yang Le reassured everyone before making arrangements.

"Stargirl erects a barrier, enveloping me and Superboy inside. Raven and Zatanna, you two use magic to disperse the dust and trash around us."

"Mars Girl communicates with Superboy telepathically to calm him down. Robin, contact the Justice League and ask them to send someone over."

Robin and the others received the mission and immediately began to carry it out. A moment later, Yang Le and Super Boy were enveloped in a relatively clean barrier.

This is a sterile room that Yang Le created based on the existing situation. Next, he will perform surgery on Superboy to remove the Kryptonite. Otherwise, before the Justice League arrives, the latter will have to go and follow Krypton first.

The broken watch was transformed into Pupba, the alien hero with the most medical knowledge in Yang Le's hands. Moreover, Pupba can synthesize compounds according to the situation on the spot, which can save lives in critical moments.

After transforming into Pluton, Yang Le's first action was to adjust Superboy's Kryptonian gene percentage, restoring him to a half-human, half-Kryptonian mix. This effectively reduced the damage Kryptonite caused to Superboy.

Yang Le then synthesized a hybrid compound that helped calm Superboy down and anesthetized him to prevent him from moving around too much during the incision, which could worsen his injuries.

Sure enough, Superboy stabilized considerably after inhaling the compound. Then, Yang Le took out a knife made of N metal and gently cut open Superboy's skin, revealing the kryptonite cone emitting a faint green light.

Taking the tweezers from Robin, Yang Le carefully pulled out the kryptonite cone, and then immediately used a synthetic compound to gently rinse Superboy's wound.

This is a compound similar to a healing potion in a game; it cleanses kryptonite residue while also accelerating wound healing.
