Chapter 598 - The Calamity Is Not Over Yet (1/2)
”I am fine… Where am I? And how long have I been asleep?” Yuan asked in a low voice.
”We are currently inside the Six Spiritual Families' private hospital, and you have been asleep for about two weeks now,” Meixiu said.
”That long?” Yuan slowly sat up on the bed.
”I'm sorry if I made you two worried, but I am fine.” He said to them a moment later.
”Wait right here. I will get the doctors to check your condition.” Meixiu then went to call for a doctor.
After checking Yuan's body, the doctor said, ”His body is a little weak right now, but besides that, everything is normal.”
”Thank you, doctor.”
”I need to speak with the grand elders,” Yuan said to Meixiu.
”The calamity… It's not over yet.”
”W-What…?” Meixiu's eyes widened with shock.
”What do you mean the calamity isn't over yet?! Didn't you defeat the demon already?” Chu Liuxiang quickly asked.
”Yes, the demon is gone. However, that isn't the only demon in this world. There are other sealed demons in this world, and they will eventually break from their seal.”
”Unbelievable… So we'll have to deal with this again?” Meixiu muttered in a voice of disbelief.
Sometime later, the grand elders gathered at the hospital inside Yuan's room.
”Daoist Yuan! It's relieving to see you finally awake! I haven't had a wink of sleep for the last two weeks!” Senior Hong laughed when he saw Yuan awake.
”Senior Wang, did you bring the crystal?” Yuan asked her a moment later.
”Yes, but why do you need it?” Senior Wang retrieved the wooden box.
”Can you show me the crystal inside?”
Hearing Yuan's words, Senior Wang and the other grand elders could sense an ominous feeling in the air.
After taking a deep breath, Senior Wang opened the box, revealing the crystal inside.
”I-I-Impossible! Why is the crystal still yellow?! The calamity should have ended when the demon died!” Senior Hong exclaimed in a shocked voice.
”How do you know this, Daoist Yuan?” Senior Wang then asked.
Yuan took a moment to ponder an excuse before speaking, ”The demon told me right before its death— that it wasn't alone in this world and that its comrades will eventually break out of its seal as well.”
”Heavens…”
Senior Hong fell on his butt after hearing Yuan's words.
This means they will have to fight even more demons in the future, and if they are any stronger than the one they have already defeated, it will be a very grim moment for the world.
”Don't worry, I will take care of the demons.” Yuan suddenly said.
And he continued in a cold voice, ”I will personally eradicate every single demon in this world until there is none left!”
