Chapter 358: Regrowing a Severed Arm (Requesting Monthly Vote)
“Boom!!”
“Whoosh!!”
As the group chatted casually, a distant black speck rapidly grew larger, soon revealing itself as a massive steel fighter aircraft.
A massive shadow blotted out the sky, enveloping everyone as a powerful gust of wind whipped against their bodies.
“Buzz!!”
The crimson-red Great Sparrow Transport aircraft descended slowly onto the plaza.
The colossal cabin door swung open, and figures began stepping out.
“Dad!”
“Aheng!”
Students poured out one by one, reuniting with their families before departing.
“Old Lin, let’s catch up sometime!”
“Next time, we’ll drink together…”
After exchanging greetings, Lin Zhen’s old friends departed.
Lin Zhen lingered until the end, puzzled when he saw no sign of his son exiting the plane.
“Old Lin, shall we go inside?”
“Lin Qi is already in!”
Yue Feng, the deputy pavilion master, smiled and explained before stepping into the cabin.
Lin Zhen nodded. Now that he thought about it, Yue Feng had come personally to pick him up that morning. He followed him aboard the aircraft.
“Dad!”
“Uncle Lin!”
Inside, Lin Qi and Jiang Tao stood up to greet them.
Lin Zhen blinked at his son. After half a semester apart, Lin Qi seemed even more handsome—his aura radiated immense power, a dazzling presence.
Startled, Lin Zhen realized his son was right—the boy had truly broken through to the Fourth Realm, just as he’d claimed over the phone.
“Uncle Yue!” Lin Qi greeted Yue Feng.
“Little Qi, you’ve surprised me again!” Yue Feng laughed heartily, clapping Lin Qi’s shoulder.
Just thinking about Lin Qi winning the Global Freshman Competition filled him with joy. Knowing that several headquarters leaders had been disciplined made him even happier.
Once seated, Yue Feng explained:
“Old Lin, Lin Qi’s status has changed. His safety requires extra precautions.”
“This is Liu Jing, deputy dean of Lin Qi’s academy.”
Lin Zhen nodded and greeted Dean Liu, who responded warmly. After all, this was the parent of a top-tier prodigy—no room for carelessness here.
...
Moments later, the crimson Great Sparrow Transport touched down at Yujing Haoting Residential Complex.
“Whoosh!!”
The aircraft halted at the plaza. As the cabin door opened, Lin Zhen, Lin Qi, and Jiang Tao stepped out. Meanwhile, Master Yue Feng and the Nine Pavilion leaders departed for other destinations.
In front of Villa 66:
“Finally home!”
Lin Qi gazed at his front gate, marveling how quickly time had passed—several months gone in a blink.
“Brother Qi, I’ll head back first!”
Jiang Tao waved goodbye, rushing to their own villa.
Inside the villa, the spacious living room welcomed them with the aroma of freshly cooked meals.
“You must be exhausted. Let’s eat!”
Mother Fang Huiyi beamed, serving steaming bowls of rice.
The family of three reunited, sitting together at the table once more.
“Little Qi, I can’t keep up with you anymore—winning the Global Freshman Competition! Now Old Guo and his bunch are even fawning over me, and it’s getting hard to handle.” Lin Zhen shook his head, amused.
Lin Qi chuckled. “Dad, you’ll have to adjust.”
Fang Huiyi added, “So much has changed these months. Your father and uncle started a company with Old Guo, and we’ve already earned several million Xia Kingdom Currency.”
“We don’t need your money transfers anymore—we can earn our own now.”
Lin Zhen spoke with pride, his renewed vigor evident from his career success.
“With money, your mother and I bought cultivation resources. My Vital Energy Stat improves daily. Huiyi’s even become a Third-Circle Martial Artist. I might reach the Fourth Realm soon.”
Lin Qi nodded. With financial stability, his parents could resume their martial cultivation journey, growing stronger. If they kept advancing, breakthroughs to higher realms weren’t out of reach.
“We’re also saving up to buy you an Elixir of Regeneration for your arm,” Fang Huiyi said between bites.
Lin Qi shook his head. “No need to save.”
He stood, retrieving an emerald-and-white obsidian steel case from his backpack. The brick-sized box landed on the table with a thud.
“Dad, this is for you.”
Lin Zhen’s eyes widened. He could sense its immense value.
“Elixir of Regeneration?” Fang Huiyi gasped, stunned.
“That’s at least 50 million Xia Kingdom Currency, right?” Lin Zhen’s voice trembled as he stared at the case, a mix of awe and longing in his eyes.
Lin Qi smiled. “50 million? The Global Freshman Competition prize alone was 150 million. Add in other tournament rewards, and it’s nothing to worry about.”
Both parents exhaled, slightly relieved—but still awestruck. Even millions had seemed unfathomable until now.
“Dad, take it after dinner!” Lin Qi urged.
“Right!”
Lin Zhen’s appetite vanished. After a few quick bites, he rushed to the couch, opening the obsidian steel case.
“Click!”
The case popped open, revealing a vial of deep green liquid. Compared to the Bone Tempering Elixir, this one gleamed pure emerald—a gemstone hue without a trace of impurity.
“Just swallow it,” Lin Qi instructed.
Lin Zhen nodded, suppressing his excitement. After a decade, his severed arm might finally return.
He uncorked the vial, tilting it into his mouth. When only a few drops remained, he shook the bottle vigorously, ensuring none went to waste.
As the last drop vanished, he set the empty vial down.
“Lin, how do you feel?” Fang Huiyi asked anxiously.
“I feel... amazing!”
The elixir surged through him, awakening his cells. They multiplied wildly, a vibrant energy coursing through his body.
“Itching!”
Moments later, a tingling sensation ran through his left arm. He removed his mechanical prosthetic, revealing the withered muscle mass beneath.
Lin Qi watched his father’s body glow emerald, the raw energy of life radiating outward.
As the prosthetic dropped, the shriveled muscles expanded visibly, regenerating at an astonishing pace.
“Lin, your arm!” Fang Huiyi clutched her mouth, tears forming as new flesh and blood reformed.
Muscles, blood vessels, tendons, and bones—the intricate structures of a human limb rebuilt themselves.
Lin Zhen winced through the itching and pain, his heart pounding furiously. Every second felt electrifying as he watched his arm return.
