Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 435: Chapter 463: 70 Years of Cultivation (Third Update)

This is what most people think, but the imaginative folks despise them.

If that’s the case, then what’s the point of calling it an adventure?

At this point, they heard Lin Xi continue, "Then I discovered that at the base of the tree root, there was actually a hidden cave."

The imaginative ones nodded, just as expected!

"At that time, I couldn’t climb up, and I was slightly injured, so I went into the cave to see if there was a way out or to rest for a while to think of a plan."

Hearing this, the imaginative ones showed expressions full of anticipation, thinking there must be some martial arts manual or mysterious elder ahead.

While other classmates initially found it thrilling, somehow, as they listened, it felt quite familiar.

Lin Xi didn’t care what they thought and continued, "The cave was indeed very deep; it took quite a while to slowly see the end, but along the way, I discovered something!"

"What did you discover?" someone couldn’t help but ask.

Lin Xi glanced at him, then said, "That it was man-made!"

"Man-made?"

This was surprising, who could dig a cave on such a steep cliff? This couldn’t be humanly possible, right?

"Yes, and at the end, I saw an elderly man with a youthful face in a Taoist robe, sitting cross-legged on a stone platform, motionless."

"When I got closer, he suddenly woke up, as if he had foreseen my arrival, and said that we were destined to meet, and he was nearing the end of his days..."

What followed was a bunch of blah blah blah, with the essence being that he passed on seventy years of power to him and even gave him an extraordinary manual...

In the end, with significantly increased power, not only did his injuries heal, but he also easily returned to the cliff.

After Lin Xi finished telling his story, the imaginative ones were almost going crazy, looking at him with eyes full of eagerness and envy.

At that moment, they wished it had been them who fell, then they’d be the ones with the protagonist’s halo now.

While Jiang Yi and most others initially were shocked, they gradually became speechless, complaining in their hearts,

"Are you telling a novel here!"

"Do you take us for fools?"

"Only a ghost would believe you!"

"Same old trope for eternity, dude, how about some innovation!!!"

"..."

But Lin Xi couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to them. He took Gu Xiaoxian, Jiang Yi, and two others to request leave from the instructor and went to eat outside.

At that time, the other students were also in a state of excitement, not having much energy left for military training, seeing that Lin Xi was fine.

As for Li Neng, who had just been hit, he fainted and lay forgotten on the ground.

It wasn’t until this moment that the two students who were just called out suddenly hit their heads, remembering him.

When they lifted him up, they found his body temperature alarmingly high because the temperature on the sunny ground was over forty...

Seeing everyone’s condition, the instructor decided to end the training early since only about ten minutes were left anyway.

In a restaurant outside, Lin Xi almost ordered everything possible, leaving the four girls stunned.

"Is Instructor Yang okay?" Lin Xi asked the four, as he had noticed that Yang Feifei was obviously missing when he glanced around the sports field earlier.

And their coach had also been replaced by a man.

Jiang Yi told him that since the Cloud Vein Mountain incident, Instructor Yang had taken leave, and the current instructor was temporary.

Lin Xi figured it out, as Yang Feifei was the one who organized and led the outing, seeing him fall was quite a blow.

She’d definitely blame herself!

However, once news of his safe return spread, he’d naturally return to school given her character.

He then inquired about Peng Bo, Xiong Haitao, and Cui Hua’s conditions, remembering that they couldn’t even get up that day.

Upon hearing that they were basically fine, with injuries that were easy to recover from, Lin Xi felt quite relieved.

Moreover, the three had been physically enhanced by him, making them significantly stronger and able to recover much faster than average people.

They did mention Ding Yueqiu, who had not been seen since they returned, and no one could contact her.

If another couple of days pass without contact, her class teacher, Zhu Ying, plans to report it to the police.

Lin Xi, however, had a hunch that she was definitely away because his whereabouts were unknown, or rather presumed dead, prompting her to seek methods to understand what kind of poison she had encountered.

But Lin Xi wasn’t worried. Other than him, only the old man could cure this poison, so she would obediently return.

At this point, the dishes started coming in, and the five began to eat silently, not for lack of talk, but because Lin Xi’s eating speed and quantity stunned the four girls again.

"Not even a pig eats this much!"

"Did he not eat for days?"

"How come his stomach doesn’t even swell?"

"I concede defeat!"

The four thought, and this meal took almost an entire hour.
