BXBX NOVEL Chapter 749 - 749: Saving His Daughter
Zhou Hengsheng held his breath and raised his trembling hand.
Zhou Hengjin snatched the cloth bag over and opened it. When he saw an ear inside, his hands were trembling.
Zhou Hengsheng also said with a trembling voice, “Brother, it’s my fault for not protecting Yunyi well. Yunyi was captured by a sorcerer in the Jin army. He seems to have a grudge against the Kongtong Sect and asked you to go. He was the one who injured me.”
As he spoke, Zhou Hengsheng spat out a mouthful of black blood. “If not for the fact that he wanted me to come back to deliver this message, I’m afraid 1 would have been killed…”
Zhou Hengjin grabbed Zhou Hengsheng’s wrist and looked at him with a dark expression. “Take the medicine and recuperate well. 1 don’t blame you for what happened to Yunyi. You’ve tried your best.”
Zhou Hengjin injected a stream of spiritual qi into Zhou Hengsheng’s body and took out a bottle. He poured out two pills and fed them to Zhou Hengsheng.
He did not know if Zhou Hengsheng was lying, but he knew that Zhou Hengsheng had probably tried his best. His entire body was covered in wounds, and his insides were seriously damaged.
Only those who had experienced a fierce battle would be injured like that. If not for the fact that Zhou Hengsheng was asked to come back and deliver the message, he would probably have died.
Zhou Hengsheng took the medicine and closed his eyes. After a while, he opened his eyes and looked much better. Zhou Hengjin asked, “What did that person look like?”
Zhou Hengsheng frowned and said, “He looks like a child.”
Zhou Hengjin immediately thought of who the child could be. Zhou Hengsheng had been observing his expression. Seeing the ruthlessness on his face, Zhou Hengsheng said, “Brother, there’s no time to lose. Let’s go down the mountain.”
He couldn’t wait to see that scene with his own eyes.
Even if Zhou Hengjin wanted to subdue Lin Jie, he would have to pay a painful price. At that time, it would be time for
Zhou Hengsheng to reap the benefits.
Zhou Hengjin was worried about Zhou Hengsheng’s injuries. “Your injuries are so serious. You should stay and recuperate.”
Zhou Hengsheng said seriously, “Brother, this small injury of mine is nothing.
1 can tolerate this pain. The longer Yunyi is in his hands, the more dangerous it will be. At that time, he said that he wanted me to bring back a token, so I said that I would bring back Yunyi’s pendant. However, he tore off one of Yunyi’s ears. She immediately screamed in pain on the spot…”
Zhou Hengjin’s eyes widened and his nostrils flared with anger.
Zhou Hengsheng continued to add fuel to the flame. “1 don’t know how much humiliation Yunyi will suffer in his hand. It’s me who didn’t protect Yunyi well. 1 have to go there to save her even if it’s going to kill me.”
Zhou Hengjin clenched his fists. “Rest for a while. 1’11 go prepare. We’ll go down the mountain in a while.”
Zhou Hengsheng nodded. “Okay… Ahem…”
Zhou Hengsheng coughed out a clot of black blood. Zhou Hengjin frowned and took out an emerald-green jade from his pocket. He stuffed it into Zhou Hengsheng’s hands and said, “The spiritual jade is used for regeneration. Wear it.”
Zhou Hengsheng was flattered. “Brother, I’m not worthy of it…”
Zhou Hengjin stood up. “Take it. When we reach the Jin Army camp and save Yunyi, give this jade to her.”
Zhou Hengjin was eager to save his daughter, but he still had to make some preparations, so he turned around and left.
Zhou Hengsheng held the jade and felt the cold spiritual qi flowing into his body. He smiled.
If he came back unscathed, Zhou Hengjin would definitely blame him for abandoning Zhou Yunyi. He knew his brother like the back of his hand.
The father and daughter were the same. They were both extremely hypocritical.
The fact that Zhou Hengjin was willing to take out this jade to help him was also because Zhou Hengjin wanted his help.
Zhou Hengjin knew that Lin Jie was difficult to deal with. If he wanted to save his daughter, he could not do it alone.
Zhou Hengsheng put the spiritual jade into his pocket and it was undoubtedly comfortable to be repaired by spiritual qi.
Zhou Hengjin knew that Lin Jie was difficult to deal with, but he had no choice but to face him. He still could not understand why Lin Jie survived. Logically speaking, Lin Jie should be dead.
Zhou Hengjin took a lot of things. This time, he had to kill Lin Jie no matter what.
By the time Zhou Hengjin was done packing, Zhou Hengsheng had already recovered by more than half. As soon as he saw Zhou Hengjin, he took the initiative to take out the spiritual jade. “Brother, I’m almost recovered. Take this treasure back. It’s really inappropriate for me to keep it.”
Zhou Hengsheng lowered his tone, looking humble in everyway. Spiritual jade was something that only the sect master of Kongtong Sect could keep. He was not worthy.
Zhou Hengjin was satisfied to hear that, but he did not take it. Instead, he said calmly, “Take it with you for now. When we save Yunyi, give it to her. It can also help you recover some strength on the way.”
Zhou Hengsheng had a deep cultivation and was seriously injured now, but the spiritual jade could quickly repair him.
Zhou Hengjin walked in front while Zhou Hengsheng followed behind.
Two disciples followed closely behind them.
Zhou Hengsheng asked calmly, “Brother, what does a child hate you so much?”
Zhou Hengsheng already knew the reason, but he just wanted to hear Zhou Hengjin being hypocritical.
Zhou Hengjin naturally would not tell the truth. He said calmly, “I’ve dealt with so many demons and ghosts. It’s normal for me to make enemies.”
With just a few words, he made it sound like he was the righteous one and Lin Jie was the evil one.
Zhou Hengsheng sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he said humbly, “Brother, you’re right. Some people are just born evil. They don’t know what’s good for them.”
The group traveled non-stop. At dawn, they were not far from the camp of the Jin army.
Zhou Hengjin’s eyes darkened as he said, “I’ll set up an array formation here. Sneak in with the others to save Yunyi.”
Zhou Hengjin wanted to use an array formation to lure Lin Jie out.
Zhou Hengsheng felt that there was something he did not know. Seeing how confident Zhou Hengjin was, he asked in confusion, “Brother, that child is not an ordinary child. Will he fall for it?”
Zhou Hengjin said calmly, “1 have my ways. As long as he’s not around, I believe you should be able to deal with some soldiers. After saving Yunyi, leave with her immediately. Don’t return to Kongtong Sect for the time being. Wait for my signal. If I don’t go back, don’t ever go back.”
Zhou Hengsheng looked at him and nodded heavily. “Brother, don’t worry. 1’11 definitely save Yunyi..”
