Chapter 157: Chapter 157 – Jolted Awake

The midnight crimson-red meteor shower signified a new wave of Reiki rejuvenation.

The only problem was that it was a Xuan_Nation_Limited_Edition.jpg.

The activation of the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation affected a billion people across the vast lands of Xuan Nation, so it was naturally impossible to conceal the truth of such a widespread event. In fact, on the first night when the red aurora appeared in Tianjing City, many countries already began paying attention to the changes which took place.

In such treacherous and turbulent times, it was not uncommon for extraordinary events to take place, whether it was an opportunity or danger.

Intelligence personnel from numerous countries gathered in Tianjing City, perhaps thinking of reaping benefits in the process or gloating over the misfortunes which resulted, but most of them arrived in Tianjing City with the intention of gathering intelligence on how they should deal with similar events happening in their own countries in the future.

In the beginning, most major forces did not think that the phenomenon was anything good. After all, the appearance of the auroras was peculiar, and the location where they appeared was the capital of Xuan Nation. If there were any miscalculations, there would be serious consequences for the political, economic, and research city.


Moreover, the fact that the auroras were appearing at the same time for several consecutive days made many countries further believe that the appearance of the auroras was not any good.

The times at which the auroras appeared every day were very close to each other but still varied by up to 10 minutes. Rather than thinking that it was a result of natural variances, it was more likely that the exact times varied due to human factors. The red auroras were more likely to be man-made phenomena, which resulted in the times at which they appeared being unstandardized.

Linking back to the training in “Holy Priest: Survival Battle” which took place a few days ago, various countries guessed that a fool in Xuan Nation must have opened some ancient secret treasure of the devil. Naturally, the Pacific Federation had identified the three gods in “Holy Priest: Survival Battle” some time ago, and that the entire event was likely related to the group of troublemakers who were live-streaming.

Although the three gods did not wreak any havoc, the Pacific Federation had planned countless emergency contingency plans in case any unfavorable event occurred.

Apart from the possibility of people summoning some powerful being from the distant universe, the appearance of the three gods already made them pull their hair in frustration. Since the gods were essentially able to heal anyone, they would naturally be able to kill anyone.

But the problem was that the final champion in the training of “Holy Priest: Survival Battle” was not from the Federation. They could not find any way of communicating with the gods and could only pray to the gods cautiously through images and pictorial representations of them. As to whether it is effective, it depended on the moods of the gods…

At present, Xuan Nation also seemed to realize the impact of the mysterious power. It would be alright if it was just a trial, but they were wary that evil demons could descend from the skies. If that was the case, then, well, they could only consider themselves unlucky, while other countries could enjoy the show and collect data.

Nonetheless, in any case, if an uncontrollable supernatural phenomenon took place in the Tianjing capital now, it was likely that the turmoil that resulted was sufficient to make them lose hundreds of millions in assets.

However, the meteor showers appeared instead, and all the various forces were bewildered.

“The concentration of Reiki in the Tianjing capital increased by 224%?”


“The concentration of Reiki in other cities also increased rapidly. The farthest city of Hainan also has a 98% higher concentration of Reiki than before? And it is still increasing gradually?”

“Preliminary investigations have confirmed that the red meteor showers are related to Awakening. Almost all of those who were struck by the red meteor streaks received a boost in their Reiki talents and have Awakened, granting them their own Awakened Ability.”

“However, past the borders of Xuan Nation, the concentration of Reiki decreased rapidly, and in less than one kilometer, the Reiki levels returned to normal.”

“There have been no sightings of the red meteor streaks entering the neighboring countries of Xuan Nation!”

At the same time, all the various forces stepped up their efforts to find out what happened in Tianjing City on the night of May 31 at all costs!

“The Tianjing Countermeasure Branch, the Public Security Department, and the Armed Police Force are searching for a pangolin-like animal in Tianjing City.”

“At 01:16 on June 1, Litang Road and Ansi Road were closed in the southbound direction from Tianjing City.”

“At 03:30 on June 1, six helicopters flew from Tianjing City to Beimang Forest Nature Reserve.”

“At 04:13 on June 1, all roads around the Beimang Forest Nature Reserve were closed.”

“At 05:30 on June 1, traffic controls were set up on the road leading from Beimang Forest Nature Reserve to Tianjing Restricted Zone. A large convoy seemed to be transporting important items.”


“Current conclusion: Xuan Nation is not unaware of the situation but is not involved in the Reiki explosion, but they have managed to capture the originator.”

When Ren Suo awoke, he let out a muffled groan. He felt his remnants of saliva on the right side of his face, and he subconsciously attempted to lift his arm to wipe it off.

But his arms did not move.

It was not that he had lost his arms, but Ren Suo felt the enormous pressure of gravity weighing down heavily on him, especially his hands. It was as if he was having a cold, his limbs were weak and they felt as heavy as a block of gold.

However, the other parts of his body did not feel the same way, his brain felt fine, and he did not feel confused or sick.

“You’re awake?”

Dong Chengling’s voice seemed to originate very close to him. The tiny current of air that accompanied her voice ruffled Ren Suo’s fringe, and a minty scent wafted into his nose.

Ren Suo opened his eyes and saw Dong Chengling 30cms in front of him. He and Dong Chengling were lying on the same spacious and comfortable bed at the same time, supported by clean, white pillows. Imagining such a scene was sufficient to assume what they had just been doing.

Noticing that Ren Suo’s mouth moved slightly, Dong Chengling quickly said, “Don’t talk. Miss Qiao!”


“He’s awake?” the reply came.

It was a familiar female voice that came from where the door was at. Ren Suo opened his eyes and tried to turn his head to look at her, but the light was too piercing to his eyes. He only managed to see a familiar figure.

“Open your mouth, don’t lick it,” she said.

Before Ren Suo could react, a small, tender hand inserted two soft, elastic and sponge-like balls into his mouth, which proceeded to cover his mouth. She said, “Chew quickly, don’t talk.”

“Woo woo woo woo–”

Ren Suo’s pupils in his eyes finally adjusted to the light. He found himself in a white-colored room with a small square window on the left side and a bright but small-sized incandescent light on the ceiling. The texture of the wall of the room felt somewhat unfamiliar to Ren Suo.

But the person covering his mouth was someone he was familiar with—Qiao Muyi.

After Ren Suo let out a few muffled cries, a lemon scent emerged in his mouth. He thought for a short moment, then began chewing the balls and felt sticky foam form in his mouth.

Qiao Muyi removed her hand from his mouth and said, “There is no way for you to brush your teeth and rinse your mouth at this time. The balls I put in your mouth are toothpaste dots used for travel.”

She retrieved a toothbrush and added some water onto it and said, “Open your mouth.”


Ren Suo obediently opened his mouth. Although he did not know what was going on, there was a beautiful girl serving him, so why not enjoy it first?

With a strange smile on her face, Qiao Muyi inserted the toothbrush into Ren Suo’s mouth and began brushing his teeth slowly. More foam formed as the bristles of the toothbrush rubbed against his teeth. Qiao Muyi’s movements were extremely gentle and Ren Suo’s gums felt very comfortable.

For some reason, Ren Suo noticed that the look on Dong Chengling’s face was getting darker and darker. After about ten seconds, Dong Chengling could not help but say, “Are you done?”

“It’s not clean yet…”

“Enough!”

Qiao Muyi shrugged as she retracted her hand with the toothbrush. She said, “Since he is awake, both of you should sit up.”

Dong Chengling nodded and sat upright without using her hands to support herself. That muscle strength—

Wow, Practitioners who are of a lower level than her would definitely not be able to withstand that strength… As Ren Suo was immersed in his thoughts, he found his body moving along with Dong Chengling without him exerting any strength.

“Eh?” Ren Suo was stunned. It was only then that he realized that he was holding onto Dong Chengling’s forearms and likewise, she was holding onto his. They looked like two kindergarten children grabbing each other’s arm while playing games.

When Ren Suo tried to break free from Dong Chengling’s grip, he felt a great repulsion from the surrounding environment. Her hands were like giant magnets, strongly attracting his hands.

Qiao Muyi brought a cup of water to Ren Suo’s mouth, and he took a large sip, gargled, and spat it out. He even spat twice more to get rid of all the saliva in his mouth, as if he was trying to fully empty the last remnants of urine in his bladder when peeing.

He heard the roar of turbines and looked out of the window to see a blue sky outside and white clouds below.

Ren Suo looked around, then looked at his arms intertwined with that of Dong Chengling, and finally at Qiao Muyi who was standing at the side.

He noticed that outside the partially closed door, a man clad in the black vest walked past—it was You Jilong, his previous superior.

Ren Suo sighed softly and seriously looked at them.

Qiao Muyi said, “Don’t blame us for making you brush your teeth first. The main reason is that you guys ate a lot of food last night, and there would be a stench the moment you open your mouth… Anyway, feel free to speak your mind.”

Qiao Muyi and Dong Chengling were already prepared to answer Ren Suo’s questions. For example, that they were on a plane, that the bizarre situation they were in was due to Dong Chengling’s Awakening, that the Countermeasure Division was involved because Dong Chengling’s Awakened Ability was too important…

“I want to pee,” Ren Suo seriously said. He continued, “I woke up because of a full bladder.”
