Chapter 216: The Mysterious Person!
The Order members are quite mysterious, so mysterious that even Xia Xiaoying, as the head of the intelligence clan, has no information about them.
Fang Yu didn’t say anything more and prepared to leave.
“The Order has already come knocking. You’d better keep a low profile from now on. This time it’s a warning. Next time… they might directly impose sanctions on you,” Xia Xiaoying warned.
“Fine by me. I’d like to see what methods they’ll use against me,” Fang Yu smiled and walked towards the courtyard exit.
“Tinghe, go escort Master Fang,” Xia Heguang said to Xia Tinghe behind him.
Xia Tinghe froze for a moment, looked at Fang Yu’s back, and chased after him.
After Xia Tinghe left the courtyard, Xia Heguang looked at Xia Xiaoying and asked solemnly, “Xiaoying, do you really have no intelligence about the Order?”
Xia Xiaoying nodded and said, “Information about the Order… is SSS-level classified. With my position, I can’t even touch it. In all of China, probably fewer than ten people have access to this intelligence.”
“I see…” Xia Heguang’s expression grew serious.
“About the Xiao family matter, are you really not going to discuss it with Fang Yu?” Xia Xiaoying asked with furrowed brows.
Xia Heguang looked outside the courtyard, sighed, and said, “Master Fang fought with Xiao Chen because he accepted our request. These consequences should be borne by us, why tell Master Fang?”
“But the Xiao family won’t be easy to deal with,” Xia Xiaoying said gravely.
“Even if it’s not easy, we must deal with it. Anyway, I’ll handle the Xiao family, you don’t need to worry about it,” Xia Heguang said.
Xia Xiaoying wanted to say something but ultimately remained silent.
…
Xia Tinghe followed behind Fang Yu, walking carefully.
Fang Yu didn’t speak, and she didn’t dare to speak either.
After walking for a while, Fang Yu turned around and asked, “Why are you following me?”
“Gr-grandfather asked me to escort you…” Xia Tinghe immediately stopped, saying softly.
“No need to escort me, I want to take a walk,” Fang Yu said.
“Oh.” Xia Tinghe nodded and was about to leave.
But she suddenly stopped again and looked back at Fang Yu.
“What is it?” Fang Yu asked.
“Fang Yu, can you tell me… why are you so strong?” Xia Tinghe gathered her courage and asked softly, biting her pink lips.
Xia Tinghe was also a ninth-stage Innate martial artist.
In terms of cultivation level, she seemed to be slightly higher than Fang Yu.
But Fang Yu, who was also an Innate martial artist, could fly and move through earth, fighting Xiao Chen until heaven and earth changed color.
While Xia Tinghe was just a bit stronger than ordinary people, ran a bit faster than ordinary people, and had nothing special beyond that.
How could the gap between people be so large?
“Your question is an ultimate puzzle that I can’t answer,” Fang Yu said.
Xia Tinghe was stunned and said, “Can, can you tell me how you usually train? I feel your strength is greater than anyone else’s…”
“Oh, I can answer that,” Fang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, “First, you need to maintain a certain amount of training. You must jog every morning, and of course, breakfast is essential. And at noon, after lunch, it’s best to take a one-hour nap…”
“Is, is that all?” Xia Tinghe listened in bewilderment.
“There’s one more key point, which is you must eat natural vegetables grown without pesticides, and if possible, you can grow them yourself,” Fang Yu said.
Xia Tinghe was completely dumbfounded.
What was all this?
“If you have no other questions, I’ll be going now.” After saying this, Fang Yu turned and left.
…
Beijing, Xiao family.
After Xiao Chen regained consciousness, the Xiao family fell into dead silence.
Xiao Chen’s grandfather, once an iron-blooded man, had a cerebral hemorrhage and fainted, now also lying in bed.
Meanwhile, Xiao Chen’s parents sat by his bedside with haggard faces, not having slept all night.
Xiao Xiong’s eyes were bloodshot, his face ashen, and blood seeped from the knuckles of both hands.
These were injuries from furiously pounding the ground in grief last night.
He stared blankly at Xiao Chen lying motionless on the hospital bed with open eyes, his heart filled only with grief and endless hatred.
He had always believed that Xiao Chen was truly a dragon among men, truly blessed by fate.
One day, he would stand at the peak and lead the Xiao family to become China’s number one family.
But now, that dream was shattered.
“Chen’er…” The woman beside him had cried until her tears ran dry. She was Xiao Chen’s mother, Xiao Xiong’s wife, Han Lian.
“Dao Tian! Dao Tian!” Just thinking of this name made Xiao Xiong’s blood surge and his whole body tremble.
It was this person who had ruined Xiao Chen!
He must make Dao Tian pay ten times, a hundred times the price!
“Bang!”
Xiao Xiong suddenly stood up and walked towards the door.
But just as he stepped out, a servant rushed over.
“Master, someone is here to see you.”
“Who?” Xiao Xiong had no mood to see visitors now, he only wanted to find that Dao Tian!
“That person… said he has a way to restore Young Master Xiao Chen from his vegetative state,” the servant said.
“What!?”
Xiao Xiong’s expression changed.
Xiao Chen was severely injured and lost his left arm. This was known to people in all military regions.
But the fact that Xiao Chen had become a vegetative state was known only to a few core members of the Xiao family and several servants caring for Xiao Chen!
Xiao Xiong had ordered this to be kept secret!
Who was it? Not only did they know Xiao Chen had become a vegetative state, but they even claimed they could restore him!
“Where is this person? Take me to them immediately!” Xiao Xiong said with bloodshot eyes.
When Xiao Xiong arrived at the reception room, he saw a person wearing a black robe with a covered face.
“You are…” Seeing this person’s attire, Xiao Xiong’s expression changed slightly.
“No need to know who I am. I came here to treat Xiao Chen,” the masked person said.
“How did you know about Xiao Chen…” Xiao Xiong said with an ugly expression.
“I have my ways,” the masked person answered.
“I don’t even know your identity, how can I possibly…” Xiao Xiong’s expression changed.
“Of course you can choose not to trust me. But I can tell you, the reason Xiao Chen is in his current state is because his soul was torn apart. If it’s not repaired quickly, the longer it takes, the more his soul force will dissipate, until it completely disappears. By then, he will truly be beyond saving,” the masked person said calmly.
Hearing the masked person’s words, Xiao Xiong’s expression fluctuated.
Normally, he would definitely refuse.
But after a sleepless night, with his heart burning with hatred and grief, he could no longer consider so much.
He showed a determined expression and said, “Follow me.”
After arriving at Xiao Chen’s room, the masked person’s eyes flashed with a strange black light as he looked at Xiao Chen lying on the bed.
Then, he turned to Xiao Xiong and said, “All of you leave. I’ll need about two hours.”
Xiao Xiong’s expression changed.
He knew nothing about this suddenly appeared masked person, how could he feel at ease leaving him alone with Xiao Chen?
“Leave,” the masked person looked at Xiao Xiong, his eyes flashing with another strange light.
These words seemed to have a magical power, making Xiao Xiong agree inexplicably.
Soon, Xiao Xiong and the others all withdrew from the room.
In the room, only the masked person and Xiao Chen, who lay on the bed with empty eyes, remained.
“Indeed a good seedling… you shall join my sect from now on.”
The masked person narrowed his eyes slightly, made hand seals in the air, then raised both hands.
Two translucent souls floated out from Xiao Chen’s body.
“Fortunately, not too much soul force has been lost.”
The masked person brought his hands together, and the two souls slowly merged…
Over an hour later, Xiao Xiong and others waited anxiously outside the room.
It had been almost two hours, why hadn’t they come out yet? Had something gone wrong?
By now, Xiao Xiong had somewhat come to his senses and felt a bit regretful.
How could he so easily trust a stranger?
If this person truly had ill intentions, wouldn’t Xiao Chen…
“Click!”
Just as Xiao Xiong was panicking, the door opened.
“Dad, Mom, I’m fine.” It was Xiao Chen who opened the door.
Xiao Chen smiled, his eyes bright, looking completely recovered.
Xiao Xiong and the others stood stunned for a good while before coming to their senses!
“Chen’er! You’re alright!?” Han Lian cried out and hugged him.
“Mom, I’m fine,” Xiao Chen said.
Xiao Xiong also went up and hugged Xiao Chen, too choked up to speak.
Xiao Chen hugged his parents, smiling.
No one noticed the strange light that flashed briefly in his pupils.
…
Fang Yu walked leisurely on the street, returning to Lijiang Community.
Having not cooked for himself in a long time, he planned to buy some ingredients to make something good tonight.
When passing by a supermarket, he stopped, preparing to go in.
At this moment, however, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
“Puh!”
Fang Yu’s throat tightened, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
