Nervous House Yu

“You definitely don"t have to be a nurse, Brother Zhaoming. We can ask around for her hobbies and interests!” w.a.n.g Shubing continued, “Being a nurse is her occupation, but I don"t believe that she doesn"t have any other interests!”

“That is right! Shubing, you are very cunning. One sentence from you can clear my foggy mind!” Kang Zhaoming was surprised. “Isn"t Weibo very trendy right now? Can you see if Guan Xin has a weibo and see what her interests are on there?”

“We can do that, leave this task to me!” w.a.n.g Shubing suddenly remembered the greedy nurse from earlier. He will probably bribe her for some useful information later.

Songshan City, within House Yu"s courtyard.

Yu Kun was currently laying down on a patient bed, all bandaged up. Meanwhile a middle aged beautiful lady sat beside the bed, wiping the tears streaming from the corner of her eyes. Another male was frowning as he paced back and forth in the same room.

“Your son has been beaten into this shape, aren"t you going to avenge him? What are you doing here standing around?” the beautiful lady questioned the man pacing around. Her voice had traces of sadness with signs that she was going into a fit of uncontrollable crying at any moment. She said “The House Yu name is all for show, there is no substance to it. You are being bullied and you aren"t angry at all? Yu Bide, do you even treasure your son?”

“Stop shouting!” Yu Bide motioned his hand for silence, “Do you really think that I"m not anxious? We don"t even know who injured Yu Kun. The moment he came back, he fell into a coma. His lower half of the body is in critical condition, now he is practically disabled. I"m more anxious than you. I want to know what happened! However, there"s nothing we can do except wait for my Second Elder to find out more!”

The beautiful lady was just scolded by Yu Bide. She remained silent as she wept tears from her face.

House Yu had been tyrannical for numerous years, they were an unchecked force so they had never suffered a blow like this. These miserable events were extremely rare occurrences for their household. All the families within the secular world paid respect to House Yu. It was outrageous for anyone to strike a House Yu member.

That was until today, not only did they strike Yu Kun, they also permanently severed his meridian so that he could no longer practice spiritual arts. He was disabled. Even if he was able to regain use of his severed parts, it would be impossible for him to recover lost ground. There was no hope for him to become someone prominent anymore.

As the second generation of House Yu, Second Elder"s son, Yu Kun was expected to take the leaders.h.i.+p role over from his dad. They had high expectations for him. So it was still a mystery as to why he was so severely beaten.

At that moment, a middle aged man hastily entered the room. There was a young man tailing him; he had a similar face structure that resembled Yu Kun. This young man had an arrogance about him that said that he thought of everyone as below him.

This was the same middle aged man who had made an appearance at the auction. He was the current leader of House Yu, Yu Bifu. He was already at the peak late stage of Mystic cla.s.s; he was almost about to breakthrough into the Earth cla.s.s.

As for the young man who had followed him, that was his son, Yu Shuixing. Yu Shuixing, within the Yu household, was only second to Yu Bifu in terms of spiritual arts. Yu Shuixing was at the early stages of the Mystic cla.s.s.

“Second Brother, you finally came back. You have to avenge my Yu Kun…” cried the teary eyed beauty. “My Yu Kun was beaten so severely that his meridians had been severed. He"s useless now! He can never train in the arts again. You need to find the person responsible and inflict the same misery on them!”

Yu Bifu was shocked by the severity of Yu Kun"s injuries.

The only clue they had was from the night prior. Yu Kun had called Yu Bifu out of distress, he only said that he was severely injured, then the phone went silent. Yu Bifu immediately sent reinforcements to Songshan city to search for Yu Kun and retrieve him back to Yanjing City.

By the time the reinforcement has found Yu Kun, he was unconscious. The Yu household physicians took action to treat Yu Kun, but the results were not favorable. The physicians were able to hold onto his life, but the severed meridian was unattachable. There was nothing they could do to fix it.

Upon hearing the news of this loss, he rushed over with his son.

“We don"t even know who harmed Yu Kun. So it is pointless to talk about revenge,” Yu Bifu furrowed his brows. “Yu Kun is already at the late phase of Golden cla.s.s, there aren"t that many people who are capable of harming him. In addition, those who could hurt him, are all on friendly terms with our family. So who was the one that made the move?”

“Well…” Yu Bifu thought that this mystery was very peculiar. If he had to go by a logical elimination of potential targets, those few individuals of the mortal world were all on friendly terms with House Yu, so it definitely was not them! As for the people from the hidden households, they were forbidden from interfering with events taking place in the mortal world!

“Bide, don"t be disheartened too much. Our household has mountains of resources and treasures. As long as Yu Kun can stay alive, I will use everything in my power to help him train. Even if he trains in physical arts, he can still rise to a prominent position!” Yu Bifu promised his brother, Yu Bide.

“Thank you, second brother! This is his only option!” Yu Bide sighed. This was the most optimal solution.

“There is something fishy about this! Yu Kun was sent to investigate the ruined maps, then he was beaten up. To my knowledge, the strongest physical master is Le Fu, who is also peak late phase Golden cla.s.s. However, since physical arts are a grade lower than spiritual arts, then he should"ve matched Yu Kun"s skills evenly. If it wasn"t a hate fueled encounter, then they wouldn"t have fought to the extreme,” Yu Bifu continued. “I feel that the person who is responsible for beating Yu Kun, had to be a spiritual fighter above peak late phase Golden cla.s.s!”

“Second Brother, do you think it is possible that people belonging to the hidden n.o.ble house, House Zhao, has started making their move?” Yu Bide quickly continued. “I heard that House Zhao has an illegitimate male child called Zhao Qibing. Qibing has been very active in the Songshan City lately. He was involved in a demolition and real estate development. Seems like House Zhao wanted to dip their feet in the money business in the mortal world, perhaps from jealousy of how much we earn. Aren"t they rus.h.i.+ng it a bit? The House Zhao isn"t on friendly terms with House Yu, so is it possible that they sent someone to hurt Yu Kun? They have the means and the wealth for it!”

“That is hard to say. It is a possibility though. I also heard that the Fire Wolf Gang is active in Songshan City!” said Yu Bifu, “A small city like Songshan can have so many conflicting major powers! What a complicated situation! If we don"t handle this right, we will be stuck in between both parties. This wouldn"t be in the best interest of House Yu! Regardless if it is House Zhao or Fire Wolf Gang, they aren"t enemies that House Yu could win in a direct conflict in the mortal world!”

“Yeah, I agree. If it really is someone from House Zhao or the Fire Wolf Gang, then we will have to notify our Oldest Brother for help…” Yu Bide sighed deeply. He will not forget his revenge, but he knows his limit. Between a hidden household or a super gang, both aren"t groups they could go against right now!
