Chapter 40 The Great Guardian of the Future
"Don't misunderstand." Chen Feng took a few steps back and spread his hands: "I didn't intend to lie to you, Miss Shiluva."
After a pause, Chen Feng smiled and said, "I wouldn't tell anyone else, but you're different. Cocolia's best friend is entitled to know about this."
Hiluva frowned as she looked at Chen Feng without replying, waiting to see what else Chen Feng could say.
"Hmm~ You probably wouldn't believe me just by telling you, so how about I take you inside directly?" After thinking for a while, Chen Feng turned and walked towards the direction of the Great Guardian's Hall.
Seeing Chen Feng walk over like that, Hiluva was both surprised and suspicious. Could this person really know what happened inside?
After thinking for a while, Hiluva made up her mind. Although she didn't know this person, it seemed that she had no choice but to try to trust him.
The Iron Guards responsible for guarding the Great Guardian's Hall were the same Iron Guards who had accompanied Jepard to investigate Sambo, so they naturally recognized Chen Feng.
Upon seeing Chen Feng approach, the lead guard immediately said respectfully, "Mr. Chen Feng has arrived. Commander Jeppard has already informed us. If you have returned, please come in quickly."
Chen Feng nodded, while Hiluva, who was following behind him, looked at the scene in front of her with some shock.
"Who exactly is this person? How come you know him, brother? I don't know him myself." Xiluwa looked at Chen Feng, who inexplicably seemed to have a mysterious air about him.
"Ms. Hiluva, what brings you here again?" Iron Guard looked at Hiluva, who was standing behind Chen Feng, with a somewhat troubled expression.
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Feng interrupted.
"Don't stop her, let her come in with me. Jepard won't say anything."
"This...but—" The guard was startled upon hearing this, glanced at Shiluva a few times, and then nodded: "I understand, let them pass!"
Several guards made way for Chen Feng and his companion to pass.
"She really just walked in like that?!" Looking at the Iron Guard who stepped aside, Hilva couldn't believe her eyes. She had asked so many times before, but the Iron Guard hadn't let her in. Yet this man named Chen Feng had let her in with just a few words. Who was Cocolia's true friend?
"Who exactly are you?" Hiluva asked as she entered the hall.
"Me?" Chen Feng smiled upon hearing this. "Just a kind passerby. Let's go. Weren't you worried about Cocolia? Her condition isn't very good right now."
"What did you say?!"
Sure enough, after hearing that Cocolia was not in good condition, Hilva stopped paying attention to Chen Feng's identity and quickened her pace, heading towards Cocolia's usual residence.
Since Chen Feng didn't know where Cocolia would be staying, he followed Shiluwa there.
After walking through a few passageways, Silva stopped, not because someone was blocking her way, but because Jepard appeared in front of her.
"Sis, what brings you here?! And Mr. Chen Feng, you're finally back." Jepard stood at the door, startled by the arrival of the newcomer, but then breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Chen Feng behind him.
"Hey bro, you've got some nerve! Something this big happened and you didn't even tell me." Seeing Jepard, Hilva adopted her older sister's authority and snapped at him irritably.
Jepard looked slightly embarrassed: "It's just that the situation is urgent and we're keeping things simple. I didn't expect you to be so concerned about this."
"How could I not be concerned? She's the Great Guardian!" Hilva said, walking towards the room. "What happened to Cocolia?"
"This—" Jepard glanced at Chen Feng upon hearing this, and seeing him nod, he silently stepped aside to let Shiluva in.
"Mr. Chen Feng." Jepard looked at Chen Feng.
"Okay." Chen Feng nodded: "I've already taken care of the star core. As for your ecology, I'll deal with that later. Let's solve the problems in your lower city first."
As he spoke, Chen Feng looked towards the room: "What's the situation inside now?"
Jepard breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chen Feng gratefully: "Thank you so much. As for the situation inside—"
Jepard continued, "The High Guardian's condition has stabilized, but he hasn't woken up yet. Lady Bronya is currently taking care of him. Do you have any ideas?"
Hearing this, Chen Feng smiled and said, "Then it's nothing serious. Cocolia is currently exhausted, both physically and mentally, from resisting the temptation of the Star Core for so many years. Let her get a good night's sleep."
Jepard nodded thoughtfully: "Then I'll have my sister and Lady Bronya come out now."
"No need, we've already heard it." Before Jepard could act, Hilva's voice rang out from the side. The two looked over and saw Hilva and Bronya walking out.
Bronya's eyes were still glistening with tears, probably from crying from worry. As for Sylva, her eyes were also a little red, but her expression was joyful.
Bronya had already told Sylva some general information, which answered Sylva's doubts over the years. No wonder Cocolia's expression suddenly changed; it was because of the Star Core.
Now that she knows that Mr. Chen Feng has solved the problem of the star core, Shiluwa is naturally overjoyed.
"Wipe it off, Bronya. The future Great Guardian can't be so fragile." Chen Feng casually took out a tissue and handed it to Bronya.
"Thank you." Bronya nodded, took the tissue, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, then took a deep breath and looked at Chen Feng.
The next second, just as Bronya was about to bend down, a golden light suddenly enveloped her entire body.
"There's no need for such a grand gesture." Chen Feng slightly raised his hand, and Bronya's body stood up.
"I am the guardian of the storehouse, this is what I should do, you don't need to take it too seriously."
"How can this be!" Bronya shook her head upon hearing this, her tone urgent: "Although this is just a small favor for you, it is nothing short of a life-saving grace for us in the Belobergs."
"You may be able to ignore it, but we cannot," Bronya said firmly.
Chen Feng was at a loss for words, as he was terrible at dealing with people who wanted to repay him.
"Let's talk about what happens next later."
Chen Feng didn't dwell on the topic, but instead said, "With such a big incident, there's probably some unrest outside. Cocolia can't participate right now, so it's your turn, Duck, to take the lead. Are you ready?"
This time, Bronya didn't dwell on the nickname. Instead, her cheeks flushed slightly, and after taking a deep breath, she nodded to Chen Feng: "I understand."
