Chapter 199 Du Lin
Looking at Abedo like this, Huiyuan recalled the fear of being dominated by the homeroom teacher, and like Ying, she lowered her head, feeling guilty.
Although Abedo didn't press the issue further, his teacher-like aura still frightened Sugar.
"Waaaaah, I...I'm so sorry, I was just passing by..."
Hearing this clumsy lie, Abedo, exuding an aura of authority, knew without even looking what Sugar had done.
Moreover, Sugar's guilty conscience was written all over his face; he knew what had happened without even looking, and without even thinking.
"Sigh, I bet something interesting has come up again."
"I told Sugar about the sword, I'm sorry."
Seeing Ying suddenly apologize, Abedo questioned, "You told her everything?"
When Abedo questioned him, Paimon began to defend himself.
"We only explained the sword's attributes and origin, but didn't let her touch the actual sword! We still have that much awareness."
"Well, it's impossible to keep it from her for long anyway. Sugar has a great interest in knowledge and secrets, and she's definitely suited for alchemical research."
Mr. Abedo didn't seem to be blaming her too much, and Sugar lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Waaaaah... I'll never cause trouble again! I swear on my newly researched, four-times-sized Sweet Flower seeds!"
"I'm not afraid of trouble, I'm just worried about your safety. Please be more careful next time. By the way, what's with that adventurer squatting there?"
"Ah, I was responsible for protecting Mr. Parad during the battle just now. I think he should be unharmed."
Everyone turned to look, and there was Palad, curled up on the ground, looking just as cold as when they first met.
His whole body was trembling, and his hands were constantly rubbing together until they were warm.
Paimon analyzed, "It seems that General Huang caught a cold during the battle just now."
"Oh dear, I didn't expect that... It was my oversight, I'm so sorry! Mr. Abedo, I'll go check on him!"
After saying that, Sugar hurriedly ran over.
"Sugar seems a bit rigid, but it turns out it's a very kind and loving child."
"Don't call people older than you 'children'."
Paimon referred to Sugar in that way, Ying reminded him.
Paimon, annoyed at having misused the title, began to ponder.
"That's true..."
Seeing that everyone was discussing sugar, Abedo joined in and started chatting.
"That Sugar girl, she always manages to wander off to weird places without you even realizing it..."
"Young people are all like that."
After Ying gave this explanation, Abedo nodded.
"Too."
"Sugar didn't do it on purpose, please don't be angry."
"Don't worry, I'm not angry."
Just then, the demon sword in Ying's hand suddenly flashed with a purplish-black starlight.
Compared to before, the change was so obvious that even Paimon noticed it.
Abedo looked at the sword, puzzled.
"The power in the sword is much stronger than before. What's going on?"
When Abedo asked the question, Ying said, "We fought against the Fools."
Paimon added, "There are some ruthless characters among the Fools in this area that we've never seen before."
The two men provided this information, and Abedo lowered his head to analyze it.
"Is it a power I've never encountered before...? So, the sword has grown significantly as well."
At this moment, after settling Parad in, Huiyuan and Sugar returned to the group.
Looking at the magical sword in front of her, Sugar's curiosity was piqued again.
However, with Abedo nearby, Sugar didn't dare to mention the sword again. She only said one sentence before taking Palad back to the adventurer's camp.
After watching the other person leave, Huiyuan turned her gaze back to the demonic sword.
"Abedo, this sword... it's powerful enough already. What should we do with it next? Or should we conduct further research?"
“Take it back to camp; I need to do some processing.”
Seeing Abedo's decisiveness, Huiyuan asked again, "Aren't you curious? The power on this sword is very special. I can sense that it might now have the power to revive a withered giant tree. Look over there, there's a dead tree stump, why don't you..."
"No need. The research on this sword is sufficient. And with what you said, Lingling, my guess should be confirmed."
"What I said? Is it really that credible?"
"Hmm... that's not entirely accurate. I can sense that you have a strong analytical ability when it comes to other things; you can almost instantly grasp the essence of things. I can't quite explain it, but I always get this feeling whenever I observe you."
"Is that so? Okay then."
Without pursuing further research on the sword, the group followed Abedo back to the camp.
On the way, a guess couldn't help but form in Huiyuan's mind.
(Could it be that Abedo could tell that Sister Universe was scanning the item panel?)
He couldn't possibly know the system existed, but when the system scanned people or objects, could he sense anything?
Never mind, it's not important, no need to delve into it further.
Back at the camp, Abedo picked up the magic sword and used alchemy to extract its power.
The light on the sword gradually disappeared, and a ball of light resembling an energy cluster appeared in Abedo's hand.
The power absorbed by the magic sword in Ying's hand is free of impurities and any toxic substances.
The pure power purified by fire is the purest life force, and it is also the life force of a dragon. It possesses the ability to revive life, as well as the ability to take it away, making it extremely mysterious.
After placing the sphere of life force into a specially made bottle, Abedo gave the sword to Ying as a keepsake.
Of course, because of the sword's mysterious power, Ying dared not use it again, nor was there any need to.
She definitely doesn't want to go down the path of an evil swordsman! Killing people to become stronger is too terrifying.
After saying goodbye to Abedo, Hunyuan and Ying decided to have dinner with Sugar before returning to Liyue the next day.
Of course, it was Ying who suggested returning to Liyue, with the aim of finding her brother.
On the way away from the snow mountain, Huiyuan could still hear Abedo talking to himself while conducting his experiment.
What he was saying to himself was quite interesting.
"The life force of the dragon that resonates with me... is not because it is a dragon, but because of me. Rhinedoth... Master... is this the dragon 'Durin' that you once created? Is my encounter with it truly a good thing?"
His tone was filled with loneliness and longing.
If Dulin were to be resurrected one day, would he be an enemy or a friend?
Or to put it another way, does he want to be an enemy or a friend?
