Supreme Uprising - Chapter 78

Chapter 78

Lu Xiu was Chief Instructor Lu's name . He stared at the elderly man as he said coldly, "If the Nie Family is bent on fighting the Rising Dragon Army, then I can only say one thing . Anytime . Now, please leave!"

The elderly man shook his head as he looked at Lu Xiu's strong body . "Is it worth risking the Rising Dragon Army's future over a kid?"

Lu Xiu didn't say anything . He only spoke when the old man was about the leave the room . "Definitely worth it . "

The elderly man's face stiffened awkwardly .

. . .

"The Nie Family's representatives shouldn't even have been here in the first place, but someone important pulled some strings, so the commander agreed to let them have a word with you . " Lu Xiu patted Luo Yunyang's shoulders . "Don't worry, you are a member of the Rising Dragon Army, so the entire Rising Dragon Army will stand behind you!"

Lu Xiu's words made Luo Yunyang feel a rush of warmth flood his heart .

"Follow me!" Lu Xiu led Luo Yunyang through a pair of tightly-guarded doors and into a room made entirely out of steel .

After opening over 10 locks and typing many combinations of different passcodes, a tiny bottle containing a gold fluid was revealed .

"This is the golden body fluid . If you absorb this, even the full strength of a martial master wouldn't be able to hit you . "

"I have never used golden body fluid before, so I am not too clear on its attributes, but using it to change your physical abilities definitely won't be a relaxing process . I think that the process must be similar to taking body-forging medicine . The more you absorb, the more painful it gets . You have to try your best to endure it as long as you can . "

Lu Xiu made his way out slowly . "I will be waiting outside . You better use it quickly . Any undue delay may cause you trouble . "

Luo Yunyang knew what Lu Xiu meant . As soon as the door was closed, Luo Yunyang opened the bottle and injected the fluid into his body .

Compared to body-forging medicine, the golden body fluid that entered his body felt like a thick metallic fluid . It was both heavy and scorching hot .

The area that came in contact with the golden body fluid, as well as his surroundings, seemed to ignite . Suddenly, Luo Yunyang felt as if his body had started to burn .

I have to reduce my Speed, Mind, and Power and increase my Constitution!

Power: 1

Speed: 1

Mind: 1

Constitution: 96

As soon as the adjustments were made, Luo Yunyang let out a huge sigh of relief . He felt the pain in his body quickly lessen . The burning sensation didn't seem to be that intense anymore either .

Luo Yunyang shut his eyes as he slowly experienced these changes . He wasn't aware that his body had already started to flush .

By the time it was over, his entire body had turned into a bright red ember on the verge of igniting .

At this point, all he could do was endure it .

Luo Yunyang silently encouraged himself and clenched his fists tightly .

"Hasn't Luo Yunyang come out yet?" A voice close to a snarl rang out through Lu Xiu's communication device .

Thunder could have roared next to Lu Xiu's ears, yet he still wouldn't have raised an eyebrow . Lu Xiu set the communication device down before replying calmly, "Not yet . "

"It's already been four days . Why isn't it over? I asked someone from the Sky High Military, and he said that the longest amount of time one has ever used the golden body fluid is only three days . "

"How would I know? Everything is possible when it comes to Luo Yunyang!" Lu Xiu replied coolly .

"If my schedule wasn't so tight, I would have come over personally . You better take good care of my grandson-in-law!" The Eagle King's voice carried a hint of a threat . "If anything happens to him, I will hold you responsible . "

"You are overthinking things . Luo Yunyang isn't even your grandson-in-law at the moment!" Lu Xiu shook his head and ended the call .

Damn it! Why hasn't Luo Yunyang woken up yet?

Lu Xiu was a top-notch expert, so he normally wouldn't have been fazed by anything, yet he found it difficult to remain calm right now .

This was the first time in years that he had groomed such an outstandingly talented martialist . If anything happened to him, then…

Nothing will go wrong . The golden body fluid is a treasured item . How could there be anything wrong with it?

All sorts of thoughts flickered through Lu Xiu's mind as he looked at the electronic screen not too far away . Displayed on it was the basic situation inside the room .

Luo Yunyang's vital signs were still fine .

As Lu Xiu pondered over this in his mind, he couldn't help but call Xu Zhong over . These past few days, that fellow had been becoming more and more important to Lu Xiu .

"You were looking for me, sir?" Xu Zhong looked at Lu Xiu respectfully .

"Yes . Tell me once more what things are supposed to be like after absorbing golden body fluid . "

"The user's vitality is enhanced a hundredfold . There is a divine glow, and then the user's skin tightens!" By the time Xu Zhong was done explaining, his heart tightened .

"Sir, Luo Yunyang couldn't have failed, right?" Worry flashed through Xu Zhong's eyes as Lu Xiu remained silent .

Suddenly, Lu Xiu's communication device started ringing . Although Lu Xiu didn't want to answer the call, when he saw the caller's ID, he clicked on the button .

"Lu Xiu, this is Nie Tianyuan . Long time, no see . I hope you are doing well . " A dull voice wafted through the communication device's speakers .

Nie Tianyuan's voice was really unique . Even though Lu Xiu hadn't heard it in a long time, he could still recognize its owner right away .

"I'm calling to warn you that this particular golden body fluid is immensely potent . It is advised to use a Purple Yuan Fruit to neutralize its medicinal properties before using it . "

As soon as he heard this, Lu Xiu stood up and roared furiously, "Why… Why didn't you say so earlier? A talented genius could have gotten hurt because of you!"

"When I had Old Roc come over, I told him to pass on this information if he failed to purchase the golden body fluid . I didn't expect that he would forget," Nie Tianyuan said indifferently . "That's really unfortunate . That child must have probably turned into a golden statue!"

The call ended . Lu Xiu had a crazy expression on his face as he struck the wall violently with his fists .

The room, which was made entirely out of metal, vibrated frantically and cracks started to appear in the interlinking steel .

Lu Xiu's anger was no use to anyone . Things had already passed the point of no return .

As he stood up to rush in, check on Luo Yunyang and call for help, the door suddenly opened and a tired-looking Luo Yunyang walked out . Luo Yunyang, who had always had fair, delicate skin, now seemed to have a golden luster all over his entire body .

"How are you? Does it hurt anywhere?" Lu Xiu asked as he hurried over to Luo Yunyang .
