The shuttle in the second dimension

　"Yeah." After responding, Wu Zi asked someone to bring a stretcher down and put Edwards into the ambulance.

　"Is your injury serious? Do you need me to treat you first?" Looking at Lin Xuan's miserable appearance, Wu Zi asked worriedly.

　"It's okay. Although my injuries are not light, they are not life-threatening. It doesn't matter if I deal with them later."

　"It seems that this battle really makes you happy. Even though you suffered such serious injuries, the corners of your mouth are still upturned." Looking at Edwards who had been carried into the ambulance, Wu Zi glanced at Lin Xuan and said.

　"Of course I'm happy. How can I not be happy in this kind of battle where I can swing my sword with all my strength? After all, there are not many such opportunities." After being mentioned by Wu Zi, Lin Xuan smiled even more happily.

　"Really? Is it really that serious? Do you know what you look like now? Like a kid who has eaten candy," Wu Zi couldn't help but joked when he saw Lin Xuan smiling so happily.

　"There's nothing I can do. Just like a child likes to eat candy, I also like that kind of exciting battle." Shrugging his shoulders, Lin Xuan said with an innocent look.

　"Okay, stop talking about your unusual hobbies. It's time to get in the car."

　"Okay~~~~"

　-

　"It moves very freely, not at all like it has been cut off." Lin Xuan said with satisfaction as he moved his right hand.

　"That's all thanks to the world's strongest swordsman who cut your arm so cleanly. Aside from a few burns, it didn't sustain any other damage... Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to reattach."

　Looking at Lin Xuan who couldn't wait to move his right hand, Wu Zi shook his head and said.

　"Indeed, it's fortunate that it's [Biyi]. If it was an opponent like Stella, my right hand would be destroyed if all this went on. In that case, I'm afraid I would suffer the same pain of being shattered to pieces as before." Lin Xuan grinned as he recalled the pain he had suffered before.

　"I actually wish your hand was destroyed. That way, at least you would stay and receive treatment, and I could treat your body for a longer period of time." With his hands in his pockets, Wu Zi said lightly.

　"Ha-ha--" Lin Xuan laughed dryly twice and avoided Wu Zi's resentful gaze.

　Seeing Lin Xuan deliberately turning his head away, not daring to look at him, Wu Zi sighed and then asked, "When are you leaving here?"

　"Soon, maybe three or four days."

　"So fast!?" Wu Zi frowned slightly and looked at Lin Xuan, "Can't you stay a little longer? This way your body can recover more."

　"There's no way. They're urging me to do it, and I can't delay it any longer." Scratching his head, Lin Xuan explained helplessly.

　"But don't worry, it won't be long before I succeed. After your care during this period, I will definitely be able to hold on until then."

　Looking at Lin Xuan, Wu Zi opened her red lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, Wu Zi said nothing and just sighed softly.

　"Okay, three or four days will do."

　At this time, a nurse suddenly ran over and told Lin Xuan and Wu Zi that [Biyi] had woken up.

　"Are you awake?" Lin Xuan murmured, turning his head slightly to look at Wu Zi and said, "I'll go over and take a look."

　"Well, after all, you're the only one here who knows her."

　-

　When Lin Xuan pushed open the door of the ward, the first thing he saw was Edwards sitting quietly on the hospital bed.

　He casually pulled up a chair and sat next to Edwards.

　"How do you feel? Do you feel any discomfort anywhere else?"

　"No." Shaking his head, Edwards said lightly.

　"I lost." There was no frustration at all, as if he was just talking about something insignificant.

　"Yeah." Lin Xuan responded lightly without showing any joy.

　"I remember that we made an agreement. Now that I have lost, I should fulfill the agreement--" Before Edwards could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Xuan's action. Lin Xuan suddenly stood up and moved in front of Edwards. The tips of their noses were almost touching.

　The two looked at each other at such a close distance, but there was no fluctuation in their eyes, both were like a pool of still water.

　"So disappointing." Lin Xuan took a step back and sat back in his chair. "I was hoping to see a hint of shyness on your face, even a hint."

　"Hmm?" Edwards looked at Lin Xuan in confusion, seeming a little confused by Lin Xuan's words.

　"Let's forget about that promise we made back then." Lin Xuan raised his lips and explained to Edwards why he had made the promise. "I made that promise with you partly because of my youthful recklessness, and partly because I wanted to see if you, the world's strongest swordsman, would be shy."

　"Compared to that agreement that seems like a joke, I am more looking forward to the battle with you. So just pretend that I never mentioned that agreement. I don't want you, a pure white swordsman, to be forced to dye with a color that doesn't belong to you." Standing up from the chair, Lin Xuan chuckled.

　Seeing Lin Xuan's carefree and relaxed demeanor, Edwards was stunned for a moment, but then chuckled. "Compared to the you of a few years ago, you're much more mature and reserved now."

　"After a few years, one will always grow a little, and the period of hard training in Shenlong Temple has also benefited me a lot." As he said this, Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows.

　"Don't you look pretty when you smile? Smile more in the future. I've met you so many times, but I've never seen you smile except during battles."

　"Yeah." Edwards responded to Lin Xuan lightly and said nothing more.

　"Okay, you just woke up and need to rest. I won't disturb you. If you need anything, just tell the nurse." As he said that, Lin Xuan moved the chair he had been sitting on, put it back in its original place, and left the ward.

　"Of course. When you feel you are well and ready to be discharged from the hospital, just tell me and I will at least see you off." With that, Lin Xuan left, leaving Edwards sitting quietly on the hospital bed.

Chapter 199

　【Akatsuki Gakuen Headquarters】Chairman's Office

　Pushing the door open, Lin Xuan saw Yueying Moya with her back to him, looking into the distance.

　"You called me here, it seems you have made a decision." Lin Xuan said with a smile as he closed the door.

　Listening to Lin Xuan's words behind her, Yueying Moya turned around and said, "Because of my many years of experience in politics, I have a pretty good eye for people. When I first met you, I felt that you were extremely dangerous. I didn't want to have any contact with you at all. And after you proposed cooperation, that feeling was confirmed."

　"Is it dangerous~~~" Hearing Yueying Moya's words, Lin Xuan touched his chin, "Chairman Shinguji and Teacher Xijing also felt that I was dangerous at the beginning. It seems that my introverted skills are not good enough~~~Always making people feel dangerous is not qualified."

　"But you still managed to hide it from most people, didn't you?" Looking at Lin Xuan who looked thoughtful, Yueying Moya smiled bitterly.

　"But it's still a little bit short." Shrugging his shoulders, Lin Xuan said with regret.

　"We have agreed to the cooperation with the alliance. After all, we also want to join the alliance. As for the cooperation with you..." As she said that, Yueying Moya looked at Lin Xuan deeply.

　"Although I feel that you are dangerous and I don't want to have any contact with you, the cooperation you proposed is really tempting and I can't bear to refuse." With a sigh, Yueying Moya replied to what Lin Xuan said when he just entered the door.

　"Don't say that~~~ Although I am a little dangerous, it is not dangerous at all to cooperate with me. Besides, you just need to persuade those members of the [Liberation Corps] who have been shaken to defect. I don't want you to directly participate in the action of disintegrating the [Liberation Corps]. You will make a profit instead." Lin Xuan grinned and said indifferently.

　"Besides, aren't you already doing this kind of thing? You're just not so blatant." Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Yueying Moya with a playful expression.

　"..."

　After a moment of silence, Yueying Moya sighed and asked, "What do you need us to do?"

　"Give me a safe contact method, and I will have someone give you the information and contact information of the person who meets the requirements. I think Prime Minister Yueying should know what to do next." As he spoke, Lin Xuan seemed to suddenly remember something important, and looked at Yueying Moya with a smile.

　"I'm telling you a piece of news for free. Within six months, a major event will occur within the Liberation Corps. This event will shake many people, making them even more susceptible to your recruitment. So be prepared~~~~ Don't blame me for not telling you when the time comes, and then you act too late."

　"Big thing!?" Although Yueying Moya didn't know what the big thing the young man in front of her was talking about, something that he called a big thing was definitely not simple.

　"Okay, the cooperation has been discussed. I'll leave first. Tonight, someone will talk to you in detail about the cooperation. You can talk about some details slowly then." After saying that, Lin Xuan turned around and opened the door. However, before he was about to go out, Lin Xuan suddenly stopped, turned his head slightly, and glanced at Yueying Moya.

　"Prime Minister Yueying, leaving the alliance is a wise decision. At least this way you won't see the future you fear, right?"

　After saying that, Lin Xuan closed the door and left.

　"What--!!!" Staring at the closed door with wide eyes, Yueying Moya's heart was filled with shock.

　'Why would he know!!!'

　-

　"Why are you here?" Lin Xuan had just returned to the hospital and had not yet entered when he saw a flaming figure outside the gate.

　"Of course I'm waiting for you." The voice like a flame was none other than Stella. At this moment, she looked at Lin Xuan seriously.

　"Wait for me?" Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Wait for me for what? Do you want to beat me down and make me quit the Liberation Corps?"

　"-I know that my strength is far from yours, so I won't have such unrealistic ideas." After a short silence, Stella said with a hint of bitterness. As she said, after the finals, she realized that there was still a huge gap between herself and Lin Xuan, so she no longer expected to catch up with the other party in a short time.

　"If that's the case, then why did you come here?" Looking at Stella with a bitter face in front of him, Lin Xuan shook his head slightly and asked.

　"I just want to ask you something." Biting her lower lip, Stella stated the reason for her visit.

　"What do you want to know?"

　"Why do you want to continue staying in the Liberation Corps? Alice said that you don't like the Liberation Corps. You could have left the Liberation Corps a few years ago." After hesitating for a while, Stella finally asked the question.

　"—Alice is right." After a few seconds of silence, Lin Xuan finally spoke. "Yes, I do dislike the Liberation Corps, but so what? In this world, not everything is decided based on whether you like it or not. I can't quit the Liberation Corps just because I don't like it."

　Looking at the girl in front of him, Lin Xuan sighed and continued, "I can only tell you that I can't stay in the Liberation Corps forever. Sooner or later, I will quit, but not yet."

　"Yeah." Stella, who was originally disappointed because of Lin Xuan's words, looked much less disappointed when she heard Lin Xuan's last words.

　"When are you leaving?"

　"In the next few days."

　"I understand." Stella said as she walked away, but before leaving, she clenched her fists and said to Lin Xuan.

　"One day, I'm going to really punch you hard in the face, instead of letting you take my punch on purpose like last time." After saying that, Stella left without hesitation.

　Looking at Stella's back as she left, Lin Xuan laughed dumbly, "Ah~~~ I was actually discovered. I've made progress."

　Having said that, Lin Xuan turned and walked into the hospital.

Chapter 200 Leaving

　Sorry, I've been busy with exams recently and have no time to update.

　-

　Leaning lightly against the door of the ward, Lin Xuan smiled as he watched Edwards tidying up the hospital gown and bed in the ward.

　"Are you leaving?"

　"Yeah." Edwards responded calmly and turned to look at Lin Xuan. She was not wearing the Valkyrie-style outfit she wore during battle, but casual clothes.

　"My body is fine now, and I've gained some new insights after fighting you. I need to find a quiet place to digest them."

　"Well, in that case, I won't keep you any longer. Let's spar with each other next time we meet." Without trying to keep Edwards, Lin Xuan took the initiative to give up his seat for him.

　"Yeah." With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, there was a hint of other emotions in Edwards' calm tone.

　When Edwards walked past Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan chuckled.

　"Goodbye then, Edelweiss."

　"Goodbye, Lin Xuan."
