Chapter 35: Mysterious Enemy

  Lei Yu's phone kept ringing, but he sat on a chair in the hospital corridor in a daze. The location where Lei Yu was located was outside the hospital's mortuary door, and there were few people here. The dim light combined with the slightly chilly night air made it seem somewhat eerie.

  "Mother, mother! Where should I go to find my mother?" Lei Yu clenched his fists tightly, feeling a sudden sense of powerlessness. His grandfather's words were clear: his current strength was not enough to take on the enemies who had wronged his mother. "Work hard at cultivation! Work hard at cultivation! Yes! I must work hard at cultivation!" Suddenly lifting his head, Lei Yu came back to himself from his reverie, only then noticing that his phone had been ringing nonstop.

  "Eighteen missed calls!" He took a look at the numbers, and it wasn't just Nu Hu calling, but also Nu Yi Long and Fan Hong Chang's numbers. It was only then that Lei Yu remembered that tonight was when Fan Hong Chang had challenged him, and he had completely forgotten about it due to his grandfather's matter.

  After some thought, he answered Nuo Hu's phone call.

  "Hey." Lei Yu's voice was somewhat low and husky.

  "Xiao Yu, where are you? Have you forgotten about the important thing tonight?"

  "Big brother, I think...I think I have no way out now, I'm in the hospital."

  "What! How did you end up in the hospital? Are you injured?" Nuo Hu's voice was somewhat anxious, and there was some noise coming from the other end of the phone.

  "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll be right back."

  The hospital's procedures won't be completed until tomorrow, so Lei Yu had no choice but to return to the Dragon Team first and explain things clearly to those who care about him.

  "Xiao Yu, what happened? Why did you rush to the hospital?" Nuo Hu took a deep breath as soon as he saw Lei Yu. Although they were sworn brothers, Nuo Hu had always treated him like his own younger brother.

  *sigh*

  He let out a deep sigh, and Lei Yu sat in the grand hall of the Dragon Group's villa, surrounded by people who cared about him, including Nuo Yi Long brothers and sisters, Fan Hongchang, as well as Nuo Hu and his beloved Ai Er. Everyone's face showed a look of anxiety.

  "I found my grandfather, it turned out that Liu Bo who had been taking care of me since I was a child, looking after my daily life and food, is actually my grandfather."

  "What? How can this be..." The crowd was shocked, they knew about Lei Yu's background, from a young age he was deemed useless, kicked out of the Lei family at 18 and never had a mother.

  "I just found out too, this afternoon I saw my grandfather lying on the side of the road in a crowded street, and by the time we sent him to the hospital it was already too late. A black crystal chip was taken from his brain, and only then did I realize that he was indeed my grandfather." Lei Yu said, tears streaming down his face again. A strong man like him would cry, perhaps only family ties could make him so vulnerable.

  Everyone was in sorrow because of Lei Yu's words when Nuo Yi Long suddenly asked, "Black crystal chip? You said black crystal chip? On you? Take it out and let me see."

  "I specifically brought it back from the doctor." Lei Yu said, taking out the crystal chip from his wallet and handing it over to Nuo Yilong.

  "It really is him!" Nuo Yilong's eyes widened as he stared at the black crystal chip in his hand.

  "Uncle Nuo! Do you know this thing? Who is its master? Who harmed my grandfather? Who is the enemy of my mother?" Lei Yu suddenly stood up, his emotions tense to the extreme. However, when he saw Nuo Yilong's expression, Lei Yu felt some doubt.

  "Alas!" Hei Long shook his head heavily and said, "Xiao Yu, your current abilities are not enough to contend with him, so... let's just wait for now."

  "Uncle Nuo! Who is that person after all? Please, I beg of you, tell me!"

  "Didn't you hear what I said? I said let's talk about it later, don't bring it up again!" Nuo Yilong's voice suddenly turned angry, and the people in the hall were all stunned. Only his sister, Nuo Yifeng, would know why her brother had such a big reaction.

  Nuo Yilong turned and left, Nuo Yifeng smiled at the crowd and chased after him, leaving the people in the great hall bewildered.

  In a remote corner of the Dragon Group Military Region.

  "Brother, you don't have to react so strongly, do you?" Nuoyi Feng said, "Xiaoyu doesn't even understand what's going on, he's only anxious to know who the murderer is because his grandfather died. Why are you scolding him so harshly?"

  "Alas, what can I do now?" The once strong and resolute face of Luo Yi Long suddenly appeared dispirited, completely unlike the former majestic and overbearing leader of the Dragon Group.

  "Brother, sister-in-law have been gone for so many years, don't think about it anymore."

  "Unexpectedly, unexpectedly our Nuo family's archenemy is actually the same person as Little Feather, I hate it! For twenty years, for twenty years I have been diligently cultivating, hoping to break through the fifth rank of martial arts and reach the sixth rank, but I've always been stuck at a bottleneck and unable to break through. If I could break through, I would be able to avenge your sister's hatred!"

  "Brother, don't be like this, I know you're feeling uncomfortable in your heart, having been suppressed for twenty years, and seeing me again doesn't feel good either."

  "At least there's still hope for this matter." Nuo Yilong suddenly thought of something and spoke up.

  "Brother, you mean Xiao Yu?"

  "Right, follow me."

  In the hall.

  "Master Fan, I'm sorry, today's events delayed our duel."

  "Let's put aside the challenge I issued to you for now. People can't come back from the dead, so you should try to let go a bit. I'll talk to the leader and get you a month off, take some time to adjust yourself." Fan Hongchang comforted with good intentions.

  "No!" Lei Yu shook his head and said, "I cannot rest, I must work hard to cultivate myself. Not only did Uncle Nuo say so, but also my grandfather said it before he died. My current strength is far from enough to counterattack against my enemy, I must strive to improve myself! Although I still don't know who my enemy is, I cannot give up on myself, I cannot be discouraged!"

  "Good! You have spirit!" A loud and powerful voice came from outside the door.

  "Hello Uncle Nuo."

  "Command."

  "Father, are you alright?" The crowd rushed forward in a flurry.

  "I'm fine, Xiao Yu," Nuo Yilong smiled and said. "I was just too emotional earlier, don't mind it. Keep this persistence and tenacity, I believe you will have a powerful day soon. When your strength is sufficient, I'll tell you some things."

  "Don't worry! I will!" Lei Yu nodded heavily.

  Everything went smoothly, and on the second day, Ai Er and Nuo Hu accompanied Lei Yu to the hospital to complete all the formalities after Liu Bo's cremation and buried him in a cemetery.

  The soldiers of the Dragon Squad were undergoing rigorous training, while the Lion Squad was also showing no signs of relaxation, but occasionally gathering together to discuss something.

  Several elite dragon squad members stood outside the villa, each extremely vigilant, as if there was an important figure inside the hall.

  The final battle between Lei Yu and Cai Zhong will arrive soon, but it will be completely different from the time, place, and method agreed upon by the two men at the beginning. Looking forward to... Fresh flowers, collect!
