Chapter 923: Treatment! Wrecking Scums (2)
Yu Xiheng remained silent, his demeanor heavy and calm.
Feng San rarely saw Yu Xiheng display any emotion.
He was a man who could perfectly conceal all his feelings.
Even when angered, he remained composed and unruffled.
But this composure only made his presence more terrifying.
Having followed Yu Xiheng for nearly a decade, Feng San still couldn’t fathom what he was thinking.
Feng San couldn’t help but think of a phrase:
The heart of an emperor, a needle in the sea.
Soon, Si Fuqing obtained the necessary herbs, preparing a topical ointment and handing it to Feng San before starting to brew an internal medicine.
Feng San’s hands trembled, making it difficult to apply the ointment.
He and Xi Jiang often teased each other, neither giving in, but they were brothers.
The word “brother” carried great weight.
It took him a full half-hour to finish applying the medicine and bandaging Xi Jiang.
Feng San then checked on Mo Chuxing and reported to Yu Xiheng, “Brother Nine, Xi Jiang is out of danger. The little young master is asleep. He was severely frightened, so it’s good that he’s resting.”
“Okay.” Yu Xiheng turned and sat by the bed. “I’ll leave when he wakes up.”
Xi Jiang awoke to a throbbing pain all over his body, his mind a bit foggy.
Someone spoke above him, “You’re awake.”
Xi Jiang’s eyes snapped open, meeting a pair of light amber phoenix eyes.
Yu Xiheng looked at him, his tone gentle, “Are you uncomfortable anywhere else?”
Startled, Xi Jiang almost jumped up, but he was wrapped like a mummy, only able to stammer, “B-Brother Nine, don’t be too gentle with me, I-I’m not used to it.”
Feng San remarked, “...There is no fu*king way you are a masochist?”
How had he not noticed this before?
What a lunatic!
Yu Xiheng said emotionlessly, “Injured body, muddled brain. Watch him; I need to step out.”
Feng San acknowledged the instruction.
After Yu Xiheng left, Feng San scoffed, “You’re lucky. Brother Nine waited for you to wake up, and Miss Si made you medicine.”
Xi Jiang retorted loudly, “You’re jealous, aren’t you? It won’t do you any good. Ha! It’s driving you crazy!”
Feng San was speechless.
Xi Jiang seemed perfectly fine and didn’t need any care.
The door opened again, and Si Fuqing entered with a bowl of medicine. “Feed him.”
Feng San immediately pinched Xi Jiang’s nose and poured the medicine down his throat.
Si Fuqing sat down nearby, her voice flat, “Do you realize the Mechanism City is a place where there’s almost no chance of survival?”
“I know.” Xi Jiang, able to move only his eyes and mouth, replied, “But I couldn’t just watch the little young master go in. I’m an adult, a grown man. I have to protect him.”
“Swish, swish!”
Two more silver leaves struck her ankles.
With a thud, she fell to the ground, writhing in agony.
Her nerves, highly sensitive, felt the pain even more intensely, and she screamed.
Her cries echoed far but received no response.
And where were the guards she had brought? None were in sight!
Mo Chuyi trembled all over, her facial muscles twitching.
What on earth was happening?!
Fear and pain left her no time to react as more attacks came.
“Swish, swish, swish—”
Right knee, left knee, right leg, left leg.
Four more silver leaves sliced through, hitting critical points precisely.
Mo Chuyi’s screams grew more frantic and piercing.
The one releasing the hidden weapons controlled the force with exquisite precision, rendering her immobile while ensuring her pain reached the brink of collapse, keeping her from passing out and forcing her to endure wave after wave of torment.
For the first time, Mo Chuyi felt the depth of despair.
She had lived a privileged life as a genius of the Mo family’s Chu generation.
Although she had undergone various family training, she had never faced such a life-and-death situation.
“Who?!”
At this moment, a streetlight flickered on, revealing a silhouette.
In the darkness, she couldn’t see the man’s face, only his tall, imposing figure, exuding an oppressive aura, suffocating her like a demon from the underworld.
The light on the ground seemed to split her mind open, and an unprecedented terror gripped her heart like a cold serpent.
An enemy had infiltrated the Mo family!
And even broken through the guard ranks!
Who dared to attack a direct descendant like her? Was it another faction within the Mo family?
Impossible!
The Mo family prohibited internal strife among direct descendants; otherwise, she would have directly dealt with Mo Chuxing instead of using schemes to lure him into the Mechanism City.
Whether an enemy or one of their own, she had to report to the Elder Council immediately!
Her fingers trembling, Mo Chuyi, her wrist still bleeding and enduring excruciating pain, managed to retrieve her phone and pressed the emergency call button.
After pressing it, she finally felt a bit of relief.
Someone would come to save her, definitely.
When the guards arrived, this intruder would be dead!
Yu Xiheng stepped out of the darkness.
The moonlight illuminated his handsome face, half in light, half in shadow.
His voice was calm and steady as he smiled, “Think your call will go through?”
