The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior

Lin Ye's announcement was like a thunderbolt on a clear day, silencing all the Professionals in Shan City.

No one expected that after vanishing for almost a month, Lin Ye would return with such astounding news.

"The Mist Swamp... isn't that the Alternate Space that no one has been able to conquer for nearly a century?"

"I heard that even Gao Lanlan ventured into the 'Mist Swamp,' but after wandering around for nearly half a month without a clue on how to complete the mission, she had no choice but to retreat..."

"Even Gao Lanlan failed..."

"I'm curious, how exactly did Lin Ye do it?"

"It doesn't matter if you know; he's already conquered it."

The crowd in discussion was exceptionally envious.

With the addition of the 'Mist Swamp,' Lin Ye now has three private Secret Realms in his possession!

Such a foundation might even surpass the so-called Noble Families in some places.

Take the Gao Family that Gao Lanlan belongs to; they can call the shots in Shan City merely because of a private Secret Realm passed down from their ancestors.

Indeed, among the vast majority of Professional Families, having a private Secret Realm like the Gao Family is as rare as a phoenix feather.

But Lin Ye, on his own, controls three private Secret Realms.

He can truly be considered a magnate.

...

The swamp shrouded in mist finally welcomed long-awaited sunlight.

Lin Ye gazed at the giant dragon in front of him, very satisfied with its performance.

After absorbing all the mist back into its body, the dragon bowed down as if seeking recognition, its large eyes blinking at Lin Ye.

Its demeanor somewhat resembled that of a dog.

Lin Ye patted the dragon's nose and praised, "Well done."

After affirming the dragon, Lin Ye looked around.

"Do you want to keep sleeping here, or shall we find a new spot?" Lin Ye asked.

The dragon lifted its body, shook its massive head, telling Lin Ye it was awake and not interested in sleeping further.

And it clearly showed interest in the new place Lin Ye mentioned.

"Alright, then go and stay in Macondo Town! But don't harm the residents there, or the consequences will be severe!"

Lin Ye sternly warned.

Upon hearing this, the Swamp Giant Dragon obediently nodded, not daring to forget a single word of Lin Ye's instructions.

"Go on!"

With a thought, Lin Ye transmitted the Swamp Giant Dragon to Macondo Town.

As the Lord of the Secret Realm, Lin Ye can conveniently arrange his combat pet.

Those without private Secret Realms could only send their combat pets to the Abyss, which not only makes summoning difficult, increasing the chance of failure but also increases the likelihood of losing contact with the pet...

The so-called losing contact usually involves two scenarios: either your combat pet perished in the Abyss, or the pet defected.

Therefore, aside from Beast Tamers or similar Professionals, most are reluctant to accept surrender from monsters.

Killing might yield some Experience Value; losing contact means gaining nothing.

With his own Secret Realm, Lin Ye's pets have a minimal chance of losing contact, so there's little worry.

Having settled the dragon, Lin Ye didn't want to linger any longer. After calculating, it had been nearly a month since he went out training; his supplies were nearly depleted, so it's time to head back and restock.

Immediately, Lin Ye exited this swamp.

The scene before his eyes quickly vanished, and in the next moment, Lin Ye returned to the ruins of Shan City's old site.

Where he stood was precisely where the spatial rift, formerly the entrance to the 'Mist Swamp,' had been.

With the rift's disappearance, the dense fog occasionally seen over the Shan City ruins had also vanished completely.

The disappearance of the Anomalous Spatial Rift brought about environmental changes which also faded simultaneously.

Previously, the Shan City ruins occasionally experienced foggy weather.

When this did occur, adventuring Professionals would generally choose to withdraw from the ruins.

During the past month, Lin Ye had encountered foggy weather several times.

This had impacted his search for relics.

But now, the fog was finally fully dispelled.

"Time to go back."

Lin Ye immediately activated the Emergency Transmission Device.

In the next moment, he was pulled into a spatial passage.

Following the coordinates pre-set by the transmission device, Lin Ye quickly found the emergency transmission point in Shan City.

A light shone before his eyes, and Lin Ye transported over in no time.

In an instant, Lin Ye transitioned from the desolate wilderness to the lively Professional Plaza!

Lin Ye's arrival didn't arouse much attention.

Upon returning to the plaza, Lin Ye instantly activated the small animals he'd arranged beforehand at the plaza's corners.

He's developed a habit of seizing a view of any place he arrives at first instance.

In the past, he couldn't do that, but now that he has the ability, he naturally makes full use of it.

With a good and wide view, he can stay ahead in every situation!

"Hmm?"

Lin Ye suddenly noticed two old acquaintances staring at each other near the public toilet where he had disappeared from Shan City a month ago.

They were none other than Liang Liankang and Wu Ziqi.

Unbeknownst to them, Lin Ye had already spotted them.

He even knew their names by now.

As for why they were outside that toilet, it was not hard to figure out...

Probably for as long as Lin Ye had been gone, they had been keeping watch there.

It was indeed quite exhausting.

...

"Let's go... it seems we lost track of our target..." Liang Liankang said, a bit helpless.

Who would've thought, a Level 36 Second-Turn Professional like him would lose sight of a First Transformation young one.

Returning like this, they might face punishment.

Wu Ziqi also sighed; but who could they blame for their lack of strength?

"Brother Liang, Sister Ziqi, don't be disheartened. The milk tea is on me for your hard work these days!"

At that moment, a youthful voice came from behind them.

Their hearts skipped a beat, and they turned around to find Lin Ye smiling cheekily at them, holding two cups of milk tea!

Liang Liankang and Wu Ziqi were briefly left in a mental fog.

It was understandable that Lin Ye could have detected their presence...

But how did he know their names?

Looking at the young man before them, they couldn't help but question within themselves...

Does this guy even need their protection?
