Chapter 367.3. The Slumbering Dong''er


    Niu Tian nced at him coldly and said, All that has nothing to do with you. Donte back here to find her from today onwards, you are not worthy of asking about whether she can wake up and what she will be in the future. Leave  dont force my hand!


    Youre so unreasonable! Jiang Nannan instantly grew frustrated, and she pushed away Xu Sanshis attempts to stop her as she dashed to Huo Yuhaos side and red at Niu Tian.


    How can you me Yuhao for what happened to Donger? If youre powerful enough, you can look for that Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley to settle this debt, because the valley was responsible for what happened to her. Yuhao is sad enough, so how can you add oil to the fire? Can you guys help Donger or not? If you cant, return her to us, and well take her away.


    Niu Tian red back at her. Suddenly, fierce winds cut across the mountain peak as frightening pressure erupted from his body.


    Niu Tian seemed to have be one with all the celestial and astronomical phenomena around him in that instant. Huo Yuhao, Jiang Nannan, and Xu Sanshi had the feeling they were facing off against the entire world.


    Jiang Nannan stumbled a few steps back from this immense pressure and leaned on Xu Sanshi. Xu Sanshis face was dark and gloomy, and he could barely hold on by channeling his full strength.


    Huo Yuhao didnt move an inch from where he was; his legs were nted into the ground like nails. An extremely chilly aura permeated from his body, and even though Niu Tian could control the elements around him, he couldnt suppress Huo Yuhaos connection with ice and snow.


    Eh? Niu Tian eximed softly in surprise, but his expression swiftly changed to one of disdain and indifference. His entire body shook as dull and thunderous booms echoed throughout the sky. It was as though the dragon god had descended onto the world amidst rolling dragon roars. The pressure that the three of them felt rose exponentially.


    Xu Sanshin and Jiang Nannan were forced backwards as they stumbled again and again from that rising pressure. They unwittingly retreated to the edge of the cliff  and strangely, this pressure automatically lightened once they moved past a certain range.


    Huo Yuhao was still standing there, motionless, and his legs gradually sank down on the spot.


    Huo Yuhao had to resist terrifying pressure and squeezing from all directions, and he felt as if his body were going to be crushed to pieces in any moment. However, he stood his ground forcefully, and he didnt even take one step back.


    The multiple tests of life and death that Huo Yuhao had gone through in the Yin-Yang Love Querying Valley proved to be very important at a time like this. Huo Yuhao didnt feel afraid at all, no matter how great the pressure was. The resilience in his heart had transformed into a toughness of his cultivation, as his spiritual power, soul power, and his Ultimate Ice element fused perfectly together.


    A greenish-golden light erupted from Huo Yuhaos body  the green hues came from a fusion between the Ice Empress jade-green colors and the Snow Empress pristine white colors, while the golden luster originated from the Skydream Iceworms one million years worth of spiritual power. Huo Yuhao had merged everything together into one furnace, and each force could no longer be told apart from the other. This was strength and power that truly andpletely belonged to himself.


    The disdain and contempt in Niu Tians eyes gradually disappeared, and was reced by shock and surprise. He watched Huo Yuhaos forceful attempt to stand his ground, and snorted as a green lightning streak stretched across the sky. Dragon roars resonated through the sky as the clouds began to transform. The rolling clouds seemed to have transformed into uncountable enormous green dragons that were baring their fangs and brandishing their ws.


    Retreat, Yuhao! Xu Sanshi hollered at the top of his voice as his expression changed. They were not at amongst the strongest individuals on the Continent, but they were Shrek Academys elites of the younger generation, and they had seen what powerful individuals looked like when they fought.


    Xu Sanshi could clearly feel at this moment that the Clear Sky Sects leader, the master of the Clear Sky Castle, was as powerful as Elder Xuan was. How could they fight against someone as powerful as him? Niu Tian didnt mean any ill against them, because they would have been blown into smithereens otherwise. Xu Sanshi was afraid that Huo Yuhao would infuriate Niu Tian with his actions and bring death upon himself.


    However, Huo Yuhao didnt retreat at all. He possessed strong spiritual power, and he had his own instincts about many things. At this moment, he felt that retreating would mean that he hadpletely given up. He didnt know why Niu Tian and Tai Tan were suddenly so hostile towards him, but there was no way Huo Yuhao could retreat, because he had to stand his ground for Wang Donger, and so he could see Wang Donger and be together with her once more.


    Blood trailed out from Huo Yuhaos eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. Huo Yuhao could crumble at any moment against such terrifying force that seemed to resemble might from the heavens. Niu Tian was simply too strong, and Huo Yuhao was in the storms epicenter, so Niu Tian could easily grind him to dust if that was his wish. But for some reason, Huo Yuhao was quite happy at this moment, because the stronger Niu Tian was, the higher the chance that Donger could be healed.


    Do you wish to die? Niu Tian muttered as all that pressure vanished in an instant, and everything returned to normal.


    Huo Yuhao didnt feel any pressure anymore and his body swayed as a mouthful of blood burst out from his mouth. His face had turned ghastly pale.


    Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan hurriedly came forward to support him up as they red at Niu Tian.


    Niu Tian stared at Huo Yuhao and nodded lightly. You have improved a lot, and youre actually able to fuse so many different energies into one. You have proved yourself to be one of the most talented youngsters of your generation. Alright, Ill exin this issue to you because I can tell that youre still in love with her.


    Dongers father came back, and he told us that Dongers hidden injury had been triggered. You were responsible for that, and if you hadnt already found the Yearning Heartbroken Grass and given it to her to prove that youre still in love with her, you would have been a corpse by now.


    Weve watched Donger grow up since she was a kid, and we are absolutely unwilling to see her wronged or aggrieved in any way. She is in bad shape, and her soul and her spirit are currently very messy and chaotic. Weve already scrutinized her. With the current state her spirit is in, she is the only one who can wake herself up. Clear Sky Castle is most suitable for her to stay and rest. You can leave, and you are not wee in this ce, at least before Donger wakes up. I will send someone to Shrek Academy to inform you when shes awake, and if shes still willing to be together with you, then well see.


    Niu Tian swung his baggy sleeves after his speech, and a strong wind swept Huo Yuhao and his twopanions up and blew them far into the distance. Niu Tian then brought everyone else from the Clear Sky Sect back into Clear Sky Castle.


    Huo Yuhao and the others put in a lot of effort to stabilize themselves and regain their bnce. Niu Tian propelled them away with just the right amount of strength so that they wouldnt fall off the mountaintop.


    Donger! Huo Yuhao eximed, and controlled his human-shaped soul tool as he immediately bounced back towards Clear Sky Castle. Niu Tians voice could be heard once more when Huo Yuhao arrived at Clear Sky Castles main gate.


    Leave immediately. If you stick around and continue pestering us, dont me me for not showing you any more mercy. If that happens, you wont be able to be with Donger anymore, and you might even throw your life away in this ce. Let me give you a reminder  even if Donger wakes up, you are not allowed to be with her until you have enough strength to protect her. You have to be stronger if you wish to be together with Donger again.


    Huo Yuhao stood outside the Clear Sky Castles main gate and stopped. He didnt attempt to knock on it. He just stood there, quiet and motionless.


    Jiang Nannan was just about to run forward to console and persuade Huo Yuhao, but Xu Sanshi grabbed her and stopped her.


    Xu Sanshi heaved a faint sigh and said, Dont go. We have to trust Yuhao. Hes only seventeen, and a blow such as this will only be motivation for him. Everything is alright as long as Donger is fine.


    Jiang Nannan rolled her eyes and said, You speak as if youre old and proud of your age and experience, as if youre that much bigger and older.


    Xu Sanshi chortled and said, Wont you know if Im big or not?


    Jiang Nannan blushed and pinched him forcefully as she said, Hes in so much pain, and youre still in the mood for jokes and banter.


    Xu Sanshi continued, Yuhaos strength has been growing too rapidly over these years. The truth is, he hasnt experienced any excessively great setbacks or failures. What happened to Donger can let him grow up and mature more quickly. Hes a man, and setbacks are nothing much to him. Look at me! I have experienced so many setbacks, and I have failed for so many years, and yet, have I not be stronger and braver with each failure? In the end, I have a beautiful girl in my arms. In my opinion, the Clear Sky Sects two sect leaders dont harbor any ill intentions toward Yuhao. Listen to what Niu Tian is trying to convey! His words can be interpreted as words of encouragement and motivation. Since thats the case, they should be confident in their ability to help Donger recover. At the very least, they can ensure that her life wont be in danger.


    Huo Yuhao was just standing outside the Clear Sky Sects main gate. Fifteen minutes passed, and he hadnt moved an inch. A few more moments passed before Huo Yuhao gradually took a few steps back, and he bowed respectfully towards Clear Sky Castle before he turned around and walked towards Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan.


    Third senior brother, fourth senior sister  lets go.


    Are you alright, Yuhao? Jiang Nannan asked concernedly.


    Huo Yuhao shook his head lightly and said, Im alright, fourth senior sister. Uncle Niu Tian is right; I am currently incapable of protecting Donger. Keeping her here is the best choice. Lets go back to the Academy  I want to start my closed-door cultivation so that I can smooth out and clear my passageways as quickly as possible.


    Jiang Nannan eyed Xu Sanshi with a surprised look in her eyes.Seems like Xu Sanshi was right!


    Xu Sanshi smiled faintly and said nothing else as he patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder and said, Lets go.


    They followed the same steep mountain path that they had taken to get here, into the clouds and fog. Huo Yuhao suddenly snapped his head around in the moment before they entered the clouds and stared deeply at the Clear Sky Castle, and he clenched his fists tightly as he said, You have to get well, Donger! I wille back as fast as I can to see you.


    Inside Clear Sky Castle


    Niu Tian and Tai Tan were both standing by a window as they watched Huo Yuhaos actions right before he left. A disturbed look shed across Tai Tans eyes as he said, Big brother.


    Niu Tian waved his hand and said, Lets follow his instructions, since this is his decision. Dont you trust him? This blow may not be a bad thing for Yuhao. Come, lets take a look at Donger. That girl! Everything will be different when she wakes up.
