Chen Huan'er wiped away her tears, her gaze becoming resolute. Time was of the essence; they had to reach the Imperial Capital quickly!
Under Wu Qinghong's leadership, the Dragon Tooth Team Members swiftly arrived at the Imperial Capital through the Teleportation Array. Fortunately, the Four Nations Tournament had been postponed by a week, so there was no immediate rush.
Even with Lin Han's absence, the Star Dragon Empire would not face significant issues. After all, the members of the Hao Hai Squad were no pushovers. However, due to the lack of information, predicting the final outcome of the Four Nations Tournament remained challenging.
In recent days, to alleviate their pent-up emotions, both the Dragon Tooth Squad and the Hao Hai Squad had entered a frenzied training mode. Although their strength was rapidly increasing, Wu Qinghong and Zhang Chengxian couldn't find joy in it. They were putting immense pressure on themselves. After all, national interests were at stake, and this situation had dealt them a heavy blow.
At that moment, the office door swung open, and a disheveled Ji Yan burst in with excitement.
"Ji Yan? What happened to you?"
"Don't ask so many questions! Look at what I have!"
Ji Yan exuded a foul odor, clearly having come from a fierce battle. But when Wu Qinghong and Zhang Chengxian saw what he was holding, their expressions turned to shock.
It was the Holy Heart Pendant!
Wu Qinghong's mouth fell open in disbelief; this was the national treasure of the Holy Court Empire.
"Where did you get this?"
Zhang Chengxian immediately pulled down the curtains; such a significant matter could not be leaked. Stealing a national treasure could potentially lead to war between their countries!
"Ji Yan, have you lost your mind?"
"I'm not crazy! I hit it off with that Lin Han kid. Besides, that Old Pope still owes me a favor. What's wrong with borrowing it for a while?"
Hearing this, both men were left speechless. Ji Yan truly had a knack for defying expectations.
"Enough, you two. Stop dragging this out. This Holy Heart Pendant is said to be a relic of angels; I hope it proves useful for that kid." Ji Yan was a selfish person, and Wu Qinghong truly did not expect him to take such a big risk for Lin Han.
However, now that they had obtained it, there was no reason to discard it. The three of them arrived at the hospital room, where all of Lin Han's external injuries had already healed. Yet, there were still no signs of him waking up. Faced with this situation, even the strongest doctor from the Star Dragon Empire was at a loss.
"Wu Jiaoxi, Zhang Jiaoxu, you’re here," Ji Yan said without paying much attention to them as he walked straight to the bedside.
"What are you doing?" The doctor was about to intervene but was stopped by Wu Qinghong, who decided to let it go.
"Let me see what’s so special about this thing," Ji Yan said as he slowly opened his palm. The Holy Heart Pendant emitted a sacred light under his influence, instantly illuminating the entire room.
The light had no effect on ordinary people, but Lin Han, who had been motionless until now, suddenly furrowed his brows.
"It’s working!" Ji Yan exclaimed in delight. Wu Qinghong also breathed a sigh of relief, though he was unsure of the outcome. At least Lin Han had shown some reaction; that was already significant progress.
However, in the next moment, something unexpected happened. In an instant, the Holy Heart Pendant in Ji Yan's hand suddenly slipped from his grasp and shot like a streak of light into Lin Han's forehead.
