Chapter 208: Sealed Skills and Talents

Sealed Skills and Talents

“Uh, but ….” Zhou Mingrui looked at Yan Wuyue.

They were completely broke. Moreover, they still owed Lieutenant General Yu a huge debt, so he didn’t know what to say now.

At this time, he really wished he had not woken up. Hearing a series of shocking news right after waking up made him pretty frustrated.

!!
Yan Wuyue’s expression remained the same. She stared at Zhou Mingrui to ask him to stop talking and turned to Chen Yixuan. “Sister Xuan, you know my current situation. Eight million is still a big burden for me.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely return the money to you as soon as possible, though.”

After seeing Zhou Mingrui’s upset expression, Chen Yixuan put on a smile and said in a relaxed tone, “Alright, I understand. I only said that I’d send the bill to you but not ask you to pay me back immediately. Chill down!”

Yan Wuyue smiled. “I knew you wouldn’t be this harsh on us, Sister Xuan, or you wouldn’t have agreed to help me save Zhou Mingrui.”

“Don’t try to make me happy. You can pay you back later, but there’s still interest,” Chen Yixuan laughed and said.

“As for the interest, it’s very simple. As your summoned spirit told me, he will help me whenever I need.”

“Of course,” Yan Wuyue nodded immediately. “We’ll keep our promise.”

“Alright, I’m very tired. I need to get some sleep. Check if there are any other problems after going back. If there is anything wrong, just call me.”

After saying this, Chen Yixuan stretched, turned around, and left.

There were only Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui in the room. “Let’s go back first,” she said.

Zhou Mingrui shrugged and followed Yan Wuyue back to the new dormitory.

After washing up, they sat on the stools in the dormitory.

“I’m sorry, you owe them so much because of me.” Zhou Mingrui scratched his head in embarrassment.

Yan Wuyue supported her head with one hand and said, “It’s okay. It is what it is. Also, everything I did was to help you recover, or you would have to stay for at least another half a year.

“What?” Zhou Mingrui was a little dumbfounded, but he still nodded subconsciously.

“If we delay this half a year, it will be bad for my plan. That’s why I’m willing to pay this price to help you,” Yan Wuyue said, knocking on the table.

“Really?” Zhou Mingrui suddenly asked suspiciously.

“Or? Or why would I help you?” Yan Wuyue asked, puzzled.

“Oh, I was wrong then.” Zhou Mingrui was a little disappointed. “I thought you wouldn’t hesitate to pay to save me despite all the personal interests. After all, I would do the same if I were in that situation.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Wuyue suddenly laughed and said, “Alright, I apologize for what I said just now, even though I was actually joking.”

“I didn’t do all these for any benefit. All I wanted was to save you, alright?”

Zhou Mingrui laughed as well and said, “Haha, I knew that. You are acting now, but I will buy it.”

The two looked at each other and smiled. A moment later, Yan Wuyue said again, “Although the beast tide was solved, the figure of light managed to escape.”

Zhou Mingrui frowned. ” I kinda knew that, but that guy is so powerful that maybe even Lieutenant General Yu is no match for him.”

“do you mean that the figure of light is likely to make a comeback?”

“Yes,” Yan Wuyue said seriously. “According to the information I’ve received, the beast tide that was defeated didn’t split. Instead, they’re still gathered somewhere in the wilderness.”

“Also, the scouts found that the beast tide this time is different from the previous ones. The level-3, 4, and 5 monsters have all gone, and the remaining ones are at least level 6 and above. ”

Zhou Mingrui’s expression turned serious as he said, “You mean, the beast tide this time is no longer about quantity but quality?”

“Yes,” Yan Wuyue replied. “The intelligence shows that the powerful monsters in the southern wilderness that have never appeared before are all there now.”

Zhou Mingrui’s expression changed completely. He could fight against level-6 monsters if he went all out, but the ones in the beast tide were at least at level 6. How was that possible for him to defeat them all?

“Don’t worry. Our intelligence has something else. It seems like there’s an internal conflict, so the beast tide has no intention of making a move,” Yan Wuyue tried to calm him down.

“Also, the reinforcements from all over the country are here,” she added. “All kinds of top fighters also arrived, so we have the best talents at the defense line now. You don’t have to worry so much.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingrui immediately felt like he had been fooled. However, he did not know what to say, so he just shrugged helplessly.

“Alright, we don’t have to worry about the beast tide anymore. Now, let’s talk about you.” Yan Wuyue looked at Zhou Mingrui.

“Me? How should I put this?” Zhou Mingrui thought for a moment before saying, “I’m already at level 50, so I should be able to awaken a new skill.”

“But I can’t see any information about myself right now, and I can’t use any skills.”

Yan Wuyue was stunned. “How is it possible? I’ve never experienced something like this before. Are you sure your skills and talents are still there?”

“They are,” Zhou Mingrui said with certainty. “It’s just as if they’ve been sealed. No matter what I do, I can’t use them.”

“I still can’t find any information related to this kind of situation,” Yan Wuyue knitted her eyebrows and kept trying to find an answer, but she then said after a long time.

Zhou Mingrui said without any worry, “Don’t worry. Maybe I was too seriously injured before, so my talent and skills were sealed. I should be fine tomorrow.”

Yan Wuyue said helplessly, “I was thinking of letting you rest for a day, and then we’ll go cultivate as soon as possible. Like this, we’ll have a chance to fight in the beast tide, but it’s kinda complicated now.”

However, Zhou Mingrui stood up and said, “You don’t have to worry about that. Although I can’t use my talent and skills now, my strength hasn’t declined. In fact, I might even be stronger than before!”

“What do you mean?” Yan Wuyue asked curiously. “Did you just say you are stronger than before, even without talent and skills?”

Zhou Mingrui used his voice transmission ability to tell Yan Wuyue about the stone tablet, and she was somewhat surprised.

After digesting what she had heard, Yan Wuyue said, [ You mean that the stone tablet has empowered you in every aspect? ]

Zhou Mingrui nodded and said confidently, [ It’s been a long day, so let’s just relax tomorrow. We’ll try something the day after tomorrow, and you’ll know if I’m telling the truth. ]
