Medical and Martial God

Lin Lei’s mood instantly plummeted to rock bottom after hearing the news!

His command was ultimately issued too late!

All the martial artists of Red Water City had already retreated to the Royal City; Red Water City had fallen into enemy hands!

Damn Ye Xiu!

”Wait!”

Lin Lei suddenly thought of what the young man in front had said and asked:

”You said I ordered you to gather on the roads surrounding Yun Luo Academy? I never gave such an order!”

Everyone around heard Lin Lei’s words and collectively froze in shock!

Could someone have falsified the imperial edict?

”This is bad!”

Lin Lei’s face changed drastically:

”Ye Xiu must be plotting something at Yun Luo Academy, so he sent someone to falsely give my orders, blocking all roads to prevent me from reaching Yun Luo Academy. It seems he’s already figured out that I’ve uncovered his identity.”

Realizing this!

Lin Lei shouted to the crowd, ”Make way for me!”

Upon hearing his voice, everyone immediately prepared to clear a path for Lin Lei.

Just then, a voice rang out from the crowd:

”He’s not His Majesty; he’s an enemy in disguise. Capture him and present him to His Majesty.”

Upon hearing this voice, all Red Water City martial artists who were ready to make way for Lin Lei drew their weapons, coldly glaring at him.

”No wonder you said you didn’t order us to gather on the roads around Yun Luo Academy. Turns out, you are the fake king.”

”Capture him and present him to His Majesty for a reward!”

”This person must be an enemy infiltrating the Royal City; capture him.”

”This scoundrel is mine, nobody fight me for him!”

”Whoever captures him, the credit will be theirs!”

The Heaven’s Gate assassins and intelligence personnel mingling in the crowd were shouting fervently, inciting the Red Water City martial artists.

Those martial artists who were close to Lin Lei first launched an attack on him.

At this moment, they didn’t have time to decide whether Lin Lei in front of them was the real king.

They feared being too late; if someone else captured the fake king alive, the credit wouldn’t be theirs.

”Outrageous, do you intend to rebel? I am King Lin Lei!” Lin Lei roared.

However, no one believed him now; as soon as his voice fell, more than a dozen blades and swords had already swung at him.

”A bunch of brainless idiots!”

Lin Lei cursed and, without dodging or avoiding, charged forward like a mad bull, knocking everyone in his path over.

He was the Eighth Realm War God; no one could block him or harm him.

Yet as he ran!

The Red Water City martial artists became even more convinced he was the fake king!

For a moment, they all chased after him relentlessly.

Meanwhile, the Heaven’s Gate assassins and intelligence personnel were shouting in the crowd, causing people ahead to block Lin Lei.

Some even threw themselves at Lin Lei, or clung to his legs, all driven mad by the desire to capture the fake king for a reward from the king.

This severely hindered Lin Lei’s speed in reaching Yun Luo Academy.

”The more frantically they try to stop me, the more it proves Ye Xiu is plotting something big at Yun Luo Academy!” Lin Lei thought.

Ignoring that the people on the road were his citizens, Lin Lei finally began to attack.

He wouldn’t kill!

Just to clear the way forward!

”At his current speed, he definitely can reach Yun Luo Academy by ten o’clock. The Sect Leader’s task for us is to ensure Lin Lei doesn’t arrive at Yun Luo Academy before ten thirty, at any cost.”

A Heaven’s Gate assassin frowned and said to his companion next to him.

”Activate the backup plan!” said the companion.

The Heaven’s Gate assassin nodded, took out a signal flare, and fired it into the sky!

Nearly 500 Heaven’s Gate assassins and intelligence personnel, hidden around the roads of Yun Luo Academy, sprang into action!

They unscrewed the caps of the pre-prepared gasoline cans and threw them from a distance.

With the strength of martial artists, throwing hundreds of pounds of gasoline canisters hundreds of meters was as easy as pie.

In an instant!

Gasoline cans fell from the sky all over the roads surrounding Yun Luo Academy.

After throwing them!

The Heaven’s Gate assassins and intelligence personnel began to throw lighters!

Boom!

A sea of fire surged into the sky!

Blazing flames erupted on the roads, and the people on the roads, who were splattered with gasoline beforehand, were all ignited!

In seconds, countless human torches ran chaotically everywhere.

However, the roads were too crowded, making escaping impossible; this led to collisions, stampedes, and even people attacking everyone around them to flee the fiery inferno.

Chaos!

Complete chaos!

Lin Lei was also enveloped in roaring flames, but he didn’t care; the fire couldn’t harm him.

Yet the road and all the people were ablaze, severely hindering his speed.

The main issue was the fire producing thick smoke, obscuring his vision, making it hard for Lin Lei to see the way!

”Oh, why am I so stupid, I can just bypass the road and head straight for Yun Luo Academy!”

Lin Lei slapped his forehead, cursing his stupidity.

Then he changed direction!

Directly charging towards Yun Luo Academy in a straight line, for him, passing through houses, forests, rivers, posed no obstacle.

He bulldozed through!

Structures? He crashed right through them!

Even if there was a mountain ahead, for someone like Lin Lei, an Eighth Realm War God, it was as easy as walking on flat ground.

However!

He hadn’t run far!

Ahead, the residential area was ablaze;

The mountain was ablaze;

The buildings were ablaze;

Thick smoke, roaring flames, mixed with the sound of gas explosions.

It didn’t impede Lin Lei’s steps and speed, but the thick smoke made it difficult for him to discern directions, so he had to occasionally stop, identify the direction, and then resume running.

”We’ve done our best!”

Two Heaven’s Gate assassins stood atop a tall building, looking towards the direction where Lin Lei’s figure had disappeared, one said:

”According to Lin Lei’s speed, he is estimated to arrive at Yun Luo Academy around 10:15. Report to the Sect Leader.”

The other Heaven’s Gate assassin immediately took out a phone and texted Jiang Keqing, the leader of Heaven’s Sect.

...

Ye Xiu was quickly destroying the foundation of the Shocking God and Demon Formation.

Suddenly, he received a text from Jiang Keqing:

”Lin Lei is estimated to arrive at Yun Luo Academy around 10:15. My people have done their best; you better pray for yourself!”

Ye Xiu frowned!

Judging by his speed, he could completely destroy the foundation around 10:30.

In other words, library administrator Wang Cuilan needed to help buy him 15 extra minutes!

Could she pull it off?

”15 minutes for life or death, Aunt Wang, I’m entrusting my life to you; please, hold on!”

...

At 10:15:43, Lin Lei finally broke through multiple ’checkpoints’ and arrived at Yun Luo Academy in an extremely distressed state.

After entering the academy, without pause, he headed straight to the library, as he had graduated from this school and knew the library’s location very well.

”Which floor is Lei Xiaoming?”

Storming into the library, Lin Lei anxiously asked.

”Your Majesty?”

The person at the registration desk saw the sudden appearance of the king, quickly stood upright to salute, but was stopped by Lin Lei.

”Tell me where Lei Xiaoming is.”

The person at the registration desk quickly answered: ”On the... on the 7th floor!”

Lin Lei ran out of the library, and with a leap, shattered the glass and jumped to the 7th floor. For him, taking stairs or riding an elevator would be too slow.

Once on the 7th floor, Lin Lei immediately spotted Wang Cuilan standing firmly at the door of the meditation room and ran over to ask:

”Is Lei Xiaoming inside this meditation room?”

At this moment, it was exactly 10:17!
