A spirit descends, Gardevoir is my childhood friend?

In just half an hour, all twenty-odd people were tied up, and their Pokémon were recalled into their Poké Balls.

"Why do they seem so weak?"

Xue Xixi asked Lin Xiaolin, somewhat puzzled.

"Of course they're weak. These elves aren't their own; they must have been lent to them by the guild leader."

Lin Xiaolin shrugged and threw the last Poké Ball into a cardboard box he had picked up from the roadside. Inside the box, there were more than twenty Poké Balls piled up together.

"Xiao Lin, what do we do now?"

Qin Lele asked from the side.

"Hey."

Lin Xiaolin suddenly took a deep breath towards the sky.

"Teacher Xiao!!!"

Lin Xiaolin's shout startled everyone, but the next moment, they saw a familiar figure appear in the dark sky. Xiao Yashan was standing on Togekiss and slowly walking towards them from not far away.

"Oh dear, we were found out after all."

Xiao Yashan spoke with a smile, but everyone could see clearly what she was carrying in her hand: Yan Fan!

Yan Fan looked utterly dejected as he was being held in his arms.

Xiao Yashan landed slowly and tossed Yan Fan aside. Yan Fan staggered and almost fell, barely managing to regain his balance.

"Hmm, not bad."

Xiao Yashan glanced at the twenty-odd people who were tied up and nodded in satisfaction.

Qin Lele couldn't hold back her tears any longer and threw herself into Yan Fan's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. No one could understand how terrified she had been these past two days.

Soon, special security personnel arrived to clean up the scene and arrested all twenty-odd people.

Chen Ziliang was taken away by medical staff. He was seriously injured and needed professional treatment to recover faster.

The remaining six people were taken to a hotel by Xiao Yashan. With Xiao Yashan by their side, everyone unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and drowsiness began to creep over them. They fell asleep as soon as they hit the bed.

The past few days have been exhausting for them, and now they feel completely drained as soon as they try to relax.

I slept straight through the night until the evening of the next day.

Lin Xiaolin was woken up by Xiao Lan and looked around in a daze.

Chapter 293 Ending

After changing my clothes, I went into the cafeteria, just as everyone else had arrived.

Lin Xiaolin's stomach had been rumbling for a while, so she ordered a rice bowl and started to eat heartily.

"Teacher Xiao, have you been following us the whole time?"

While eating, Zhuo Xiaole asked Xiao Yashan, who was sitting next to him.

"Yes, this mission is a trial mission for you. I will be responsible for protecting your safety. Of course, I will only be responsible for dealing with combat power of Quasi-Heavenly King or above during the mission."

"By the way, Yan Fan, how did you end up with your mother?"

Yan Fan, who was eating with his bowl in hand, put it down when he heard Qin Lele's question.

"I was ambushed in the supermarket, and Aunt Xiao stabbed me from behind. Holy crap, blood sprayed all over my face, and both of our heads were chopped off and spun 360 degrees in the air before landing."

As he spoke, Yan Fan couldn't help but shudder.

Not to mention Yan Fan, the others couldn't help but shudder as they looked at Xiao Yashan. They never expected that such a beautiful and 'gentle' teacher could actually chop off two people's heads with a single stroke.

"By the way, Teacher Xiao, we've completed our mission. Can you tell us what exactly happened?"

Lin Xiaolin asked with some curiosity, even though he had completed the task, he still only had a vague understanding of it.

"Well, it's actually quite simple. The president and vice president of the relocated association betrayed us at the same time, made a deal with the Sakura Country to smuggle out substandard Pokémon eggs, and later they showed some clues, and some people in the association already suspect the two of them."

"The two of them decided to go all the way and put on a show, intending to kill the people who came to investigate as a pledge of loyalty and then defect to the Sakura Kingdom. The Sakura Kingdom was of course willing, and those lord-level elves were sent to them by the Sakura Kingdom for their use."

"I see!"

Yan Fan nodded as if he understood, and the others had also grasped most of the situation, but Lin Xiaolin felt that things weren't so simple.

"By the way, Teacher Xiao, have you caught the president and vice president yet?"

"Yes, now everyone involved in this matter has been arrested, including the undercover agents that Japan planted in Qiancheng."

The group breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Xiao Yashan's words.

After dinner, everyone wanted to take a stroll around the city, just like taking a walk. After all, they hadn't had a proper look at the city since they arrived, and they also wanted to visit Chen Ziliang in the hospital.

Lin Xiaolin was originally planning to go as well, but Xiao Yashan kept her behind.

After the others left, Xiao Yashan led him to the rooftop of the hotel.

The hotel is very tall, with more than ten floors. Standing on the rooftop, you can basically take in the entire city.

"Teacher Xiao, is there something you need from me?"

Lin Xiaolin stood on the rooftop, enjoying the evening breeze and savoring this moment of leisure.

"Yes, it's about the country of cherry blossoms. It's similar to the one I told you about before, but there's one difference."

Xiao Yashan paused for a moment, then looked at Lin Xiaolin.

"They're after you. Other groups will also encounter battles, but it won't be this dangerous."

Seeing Xiao Yashan's serious expression, Lin Xiaolin revealed an "I knew it" look.

"Did you guess it?"

"Hmm, I had a general idea that it wasn't simple, but I didn't expect it to be aimed at me."

Xiao Yashan sighed, then looked down at the city with a solemn expression.

“You need to be more careful from now on. I can’t be around you 24/7. I suspect that the United States has obtained some important information about you.”

"Yes, thank you, Teacher Xiao."

Lin Xiaolin clenched his fists. He couldn't rely on others forever; his own strength was his foundation!

Moreover, Lin Xiaolin felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. This sense of crisis was not directed at him, but at his family. His family was his absolute weakness. The last incident was still fresh in his mind. Who knew if 'they' would attack or kidnap his family?

Seeing Lin Xiaolin's expression, Xiao Yashan spoke again.

"I know you're worried about your family. Long Yu and I have been discussing the situation urgently these past few days, and in the end, there are only three solutions."

First, your entire family will move to Longdu, and Longyu will set up a new dojo for your family in Longdu.

Secondly, your family should move to a natural place and live with Lingxin Tianwang. We have asked him in advance, and Lingxin Tianwang has no objections.

Third, Longyu will send four Elite Four-level Dragonite to help guard your home. Your gym will take care of all the Dragonite's food, drink, lodging and transportation.

These are the three best methods we've come up with; the choice is up to you.

Lin Xiaolin was somewhat surprised to hear this. She hadn't expected the champion to go to such lengths for his family. Lin Xiaolin nodded seriously.

"I will discuss it with my family and thank Coach Xiao, and also thank the champion on my behalf."

"Okay, go ahead. We'll be leaving Qiancheng tomorrow. We'll give you a few days off then, so think it over carefully."

"Ah."

Lin Xiaolin returned to her bedroom and pondered Xiao Yashan's words.

Although I knew this incident was unusual, I never expected it to be aimed at me. What secrets of mine did they find out?

There aren't many things that would warrant such a large-scale operation from the other party.

Super evolution counts as one, the identity of a researcher counts as one, and the identity of the founder of the fossil revival project counts as one, so that makes three.

As for Z Pure Crystal, it's unlikely they would personally take such action.

Those are basically the three. Only Xiao Yashan and Long Yu know about the super evolution. Moreover, if the other side finds out about the super evolution they have researched, it won't just be a few quasi-elite kings who come to assassinate them; it's estimated that all four elite kings will come.

Given my status as a researcher, I didn't think the other party would go to such lengths.

That leaves only one option: the fossil revival plan!

Lin Xiaolin's eyes turned cold. Not many people knew that he was the founder of the Fossil Resuscitation Project; only those people from his time in the underground research institute knew him.

However, they couldn't determine who that group of people was, so they had no clue.

"Hey~"

With a sigh, Lin Xiaolin stood up and walked outside. He decided to take a walk and check on Chen Ziliang's injuries.

------

After receiving proper medical treatment, Chen Ziliang recovered quickly and has already regained consciousness.

In the past two days, the city has been in a state of panic because the president and vice president were arrested. However, with Xiao Yashan in charge, things did not get chaotic. Soon, Long Yu sent his men to replace Xiao Yashan.
