Until the phone disconnected automatically, Master Feng did not answer, and Murong Mingyue’s emotions, which had already stabilized, became extremely agitated again.
"Master Feng, please answer the phone!"
Murong Mingyue dialed Master Feng’s number several more times, but the other party did not pick up even once.
Murong Mingyue almost cried out of desperation, "Grandfather, what on earth happened to you?"
It was then that Qin Chuan said, "Try contacting your grandfather’s personal physician and bodyguard now."
Although he was suspicious of the personal physician and bodyguard, they were the only ones he could contact since Master Feng was unreachable.
He wouldn’t use the Person-Seeking Secret Art lightly, unless it was a last resort.
The Person-Seeking Secret Art required a high level of cultivation, and although he had regained a lot of his strength, it was still not enough to perform the secret technique.
Last night, while using the secret technique to look for Song Yan, he had almost died due to the eruption of the Kunlun Divine Poison, and he was still terrified by the memory.
Just as Murong Mingyue was about to contact Murong Fu’s bodyguard, her phone suddenly rang.
"Master Feng!"
Upon seeing the caller ID, Murong Mingyue was overjoyed and quickly answered, "Master Feng, how is my grandfather now?"
Master Feng said gravely, "Miss, we have just taken the Family Head to the hospital, and he is currently undergoing emergency treatment at Jiangcheng City People’s Hospital."
"What?"
Upon hearing this news, Murong Mingyue felt her world spin and staggered a few steps; had Qin Chuan not steadied her, she would have fallen to the ground.
Master Feng tried to console her, "Miss, don’t worry too much. What kind of storm hasn’t the Family Head weathered? He will surely overcome this obstacle too!"
Suppressing the sadness in her heart, Murong Mingyue said with teary eyes, "Remind Yu Lin and Ding Wei not to reveal any details about Grandfather’s condition to anyone."
Even though she was sad, she did not lose the ability to think because of her grief.
Murong Fu had already left Yandu in secret, and yet, he still fell victim to an assassination attempt.
If news of Murong Fu’s critical condition were to leak out, the Murong Family would be facing not just internal distress but external trouble as well.
Master Feng understood this rationale and quickly assured, "Miss, you can rest easy. I have already warned Yu Lin and Ding Wei."
Yu Lin was Murong Fu’s personal bodyguard, a true Energizing Skill Peak Realm Strong.
And Ding Wei was the personal physician responsible for Murong Fu’s health.
As Qin Chuan and Murong Mingyue rushed to Jiangcheng City People’s Hospital, at the entrance of the emergency room, the three men, including Master Feng, all wore faces filled with worry.
Both Yu Lin and Master Feng were riddled with injuries, and Ding Wei was not in much better shape, his clothing also stained with blood.
It was clear that they had just gone through a fierce battle.
"Master Feng, I think we should notify the family. If something were to happen to the Family Head, none of us could bear the responsibility," Ding Wei suddenly said.
Master Feng frowned and said with displeasure, "If we expose the Family Head’s situation, the Murong Family will suffer a fatal blow. The Miss has ordered us to seal the news of the Family Head’s injury."
Ding Wei angrily said, "The Family Head is already in a dire state, and having just been severely wounded by assassins, his chances of survival are incredibly slim. If we continue to hide this information, by the time the Family Head dies, we’re as good as dead too."
"Shut up!"
Master Feng fiercely scolded with a menacing face, "If you dare to spout nonsense again, do you believe I won’t take your life right now?"
"You..."
Ding Wei was furious, but when his gaze met Master Feng’s murderous eyes, his entire body shivered, and he choked back the rest of his words.
He then turned to Yu Lin and said, "Yu Lin, don’t you have anything to say?"
Yu Lin said emotionlessly, "I only follow the Family Head’s orders!"
Ding Wei was immediately at a loss for words; Yu Lin was like a fighting machine, he didn’t care for anyone’s dignity and only listened to Murong Fu.
As seconds and minutes ticked by, the door of the emergency room remained closed.
Master Feng grew more anxious by the moment, thinking, if the Family Head died, what then?
After all, Murong Fu had been brought out by Mingyue, and if anything did happen, even if Mingyue managed to save her own life, she would completely lose her power.
In his heart, Master Feng prayed fervently, "Family Head, you must hold on!"
Ding Wei also wore an expression of utmost anxiety, occasionally letting out a heavy sigh.
If anything happened to Murong Fu, as his personal physician, Ding Wei would not be able to escape responsibility.
Only Yu Lin maintained his composure, as if nothing had occurred, simply sitting cross-legged in front of the emergency room, cultivating.
"Click!"
At that moment, the door to the emergency room suddenly swung open.
Master Feng and Ding Wei quickly rushed forward, with Ding Wei asking anxiously, "How is our Family Head?"
The lead surgeon shook his head gravely and said, "I’m sorry, we’ve done all we could! You should inform the family to see the patient for one last time."
"Boom!"
Master Feng and the others felt their minds reel as their expressions froze completely.
The Family Head, dead?
"Slap!"
Before Master Feng and Ding Wei could recover from their shock, Yu Lin appeared in front of the lead surgeon like a demon, grabbed him by the neck, and hoisted him up with one hand.
The lead surgeon’s face was filled with terror, his body struggling ceaselessly as he exclaimed in horror, "What, what are you doing? Put, put me down!"
Yu Lin said murderously, "If you can’t cure the Family Head, I’ll kill you!"
After saying that, he suddenly released his grip, and the lead surgeon crashed to the ground, his face etched with terror.
Even though he was accustomed to life and death, at that moment he had felt the fear of facing his own mortality.
He had no doubt that if he really hadn’t been able to save that old man, the old fellow before him would definitely kill him.
"I, I..."
The lead surgeon wanted to say something, but when he met Yu Lin’s calm eyes, he shuddered and turned back into the emergency room.
"Thump thump thump!"
Just then, a rapid sequence of footsteps sounded, followed by Mingyue’s voice, "Master Feng, how is Grandfather?"
When Master Feng saw Mingyue arriving with Qin Chuan, he was instantly overjoyed and hastened forward, saying, "Mr. Qin, quickly, quickly, the Family Head is nearly gone, hurry and save him!"
Qin Chuan had already sensed at the site of Murong Fu’s attack that the remaining breath of Murong Fu was very faint.
He was here to save lives, and without needing Master Feng to say more, he headed toward the emergency room.
However, just as he was about to enter the emergency room, a figure suddenly blocked his path, staring at him coldly and barking, "Take one more step forward, and die!"
The one blocking Qin Chuan’s path was Yu Lin!
At that moment, Yu Lin’s face was full of murderous intent, ready to kill if Qin Chuan dared to take even one step forward.
Qin Chuan’s gaze suddenly turned icy as he stared at Yu Lin and said, "Are you talking to me?"
