Chapter 691: Chapter 690: Anger
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
Ten kilometers north of Yunwu Mountain, two figures speeding through the dense forest suddenly stopped.
The phone set to vibration mode in Yang Fei’s pocket started vibrating furiously.
He took it out; it was a call from Umekawa Taro.
Hu Lizhong asked in surprise, "Is there a signal now?"
Yang Fei nodded and answered the call.
"Finally got through, Boss Tang, there’s trouble." As soon as the call connected, Umekawa Taro’s voice came through, straightforwardly saying, "Someone is trying to kidnap your sister."
"What?" Yang Fei exclaimed in alarm, "How is my sister?"
"She’s fine, we found out early and rescued her," Umekawa Taro said. "We couldn’t reach you at all. It seems something big has happened in Divine Continent. Where are you?"
Yang Fei’s expression turned incredibly solemn.
If the enemy had targeted Yang Wen and tried to kidnap her, what about Aunt Er and Yang Hao and Huang Qiaoqiao?
These were his own family members.
"Umekawa, you guys hide well and protect my sister. I’ll contact you later," Yang Fei said, then hung up the phone and immediately dialed Yang Hao’s number.
Meanwhile, Hu Lizhong also took out his phone and silently moved aside, dialing his home with a heavy expression.
What worried him the most after the incident was his family.
The enemy knew every detail about him. Now that Yang Fei’s relatives were involved, what about his own family? Had the enemy controlled them in advance to strike at him?
Yang Hao’s phone could not be reached.
Yang Fei’s heart sank, and he dialed Aunt Er’s number.
He had only had his uncle’s number before, but after his uncle’s death, Yang Fei had kept Aunt Er’s number and often called to check on her.
Still unreachable.
Neither of their numbers could be reached. It couldn’t be a coincidence.
Something definitely happened.
Yang Fei’s heart sank to the bottom of his chest, but his bright eyes shot out two cold glints, releasing a terrifying murderous intent.
He was truly enraged now.
In the Martial Arts World, it was customary not to trouble family members. He hadn’t expected this time’s enemies to be so ruthless, committing such an act.
They deserved to die!
Yang Fei’s eyes faintly glowed red, a primitive rage overtaking his reason.
Because of him, his uncle had been murdered, and now, because of him again, Yang Wen had almost been captured while Yang Hao and Aunt Er had lost contact.
His family could have lived peacefully, but because of his arrival, they were dragged into this mess.
This moment, the wounds in Yang Fei’s heart from his uncle’s death had just begun to heal, but now they were torn open again.
Meanwhile, Hu Lizhong, also morose, put away his phone. He felt the chilling aura radiating from Yang Fei, his heart trembled, and he couldn’t help but swallow hard and called out, "Yang... Brother Yang, what’s wrong with you?"
Yang Fei, struggling to control his emotions, looked up at Hu Lizhong, seeing that he had also been making a call, and asked, "How is it? Did you get through to your family?"
Hu Lizhong shook his head heavily, "I couldn’t get through."
Yang Fei took a deep breath, walked over, and patted his shoulder, saying, "Do you trust me?"
Hu Lizhong looked at him, unsure how to respond.
"If you trust me, as long as your family members aren’t dead, I will help rescue them, and no matter who the enemy is, for committing such a ruthless act, they will definitely pay a heavy price," Yang Fei said with a firm tone.
Light sparked in Hu Lizhong’s eyes as he nodded, "I trust you. Moreover, my family must still be alive. They have made a big fuss capturing our relatives for only one reason."
Yang Fei nodded.
That’s the case for Hu Lizhong. What about the others in the Military Department?
Were there other reputable and influential people with good relations with the Qin Family?
Did they also face the same threats?
Facing such threats, how could the Qin Family still contend with the enemy?
The situation was more severe than imagined.
Soon, Yang Fei discarded these thoughts. His gaze was resolutely fixed in the direction of Yunwu Mountain, and he set off once more.
Fighting without declaration and without limits, huh.
Let’s see who is more ruthless then.
...
Within the valley of Yunwu Mountain.
Zhuge Cang was video calling his two brothers in Imperial City.
In the video, besides his two brothers, there was another person, Zhang Wenfeng.
"Uncle Three, how are things on your side?" Zhang Wenfeng asked with a broad smile on his face.
Zhuge Cang glanced at him and said, "Yunwu Mountain has been taken over by us, and the people from the Military Department have all left."
Zhang Wenfeng’s smile stiffened for a moment.
All the people from the Military Department had left?
Weren’t they all suppressed?
The benevolent-looking elderly man furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "Third brother, what happened unexpectedly?"
The burly elder also showed concern.
Zhuge Cang snorted, "We underestimated that lad and the girl’s strength."
"That girl? You mean Qin Yanyang? How could she be there? Wasn’t the intelligence reporting she was in Binhai?" the burly elder asked in astonishment, then glared fiercely at Zhang Wenfeng.
Zhang Wenfeng gave a wry smile and said, "The team that went to assault the laboratory in Binhai returned empty-handed. They didn’t find Qin Yanyang’s whereabouts. Unexpectedly, that girl slipped off to Shennongjia without anyone noticing."
The burly elder snorted and looked back at Zhuge Cang in the video, saying, "No matter how powerful that girl and the boy are, they shouldn’t be a match for you, right, Third Brother?"
Zhuge Cang, feeling slightly disgraced when this was brought up, responded, "We all underestimated these two youngsters’ combat capabilities, especially when they teamed up, their strength was bizarrely formidable."
The kind elder’s expression changed, surprised, he said, "Third Brother, didn’t you say you had set up the Five Elements Thousand Mechanism Formation? In that formation, even if they have extraordinary capabilities, they shouldn’t be able to defy you, right? Could they still escape?"
The burly elder nodded earnestly, clearly very confident in Zhuge Cang’s methods.
"That lad is quick to react. While engaging me, he managed to sabotage the Thousand Mechanism Array, significantly weakening my combat power. In short, these young people are formidable. If this lad weren’t obliterated by my Thunder Skill, and should he remain with that girl, be cautious if you encounter them, absolutely do not take them lightly," Zhuge Cang warned.
Then, without waiting for the others to ask, he recounted how Yang Fei had been seriously injured, his life hanging by a thread, and how Qin Yanyang had taken him and fled.
Finally he said, "Have the materials needed to repair the formation sent immediately. I need to fix the formation; that’s crucial. Otherwise, if other forces from the Hidden Sect spot any signs and find that exit, our arrangements in the secular world will be too late."
"Yes, Uncle Three, rest assured, I’ll go hurry them now," Zhang Wenfeng hastily replied on the side.
The other two members of the Zhuge family also changed their expressions, showing a bit of nervousness.
They too were worried about the other passage being discovered prematurely by other forces of the Hidden Sect.
This matter wasn’t something that could be kept hidden forever.
It all depended on when the other forces would detect something amiss.
Hopefully, the delay could be long enough to give the Zhuge family ample preparation time, otherwise, if other forces stepped in it would undo all the prior work the Zhuge family had prepared.
Just as they were about to end the call, Zhuge Cang’s expression suddenly changed, and he bellowed, "Damn it, who dares tamper with my formation?"
Then his figure flashed, disappearing from the screen.
Zhang Wenfeng and the other two elders changed expressions instantly, the burly elder urgently asked Zhang Wenfeng, "What happened? What’s going on?"
The other person also spoke gravely, "Seems like someone is sabotaging the formation? It’s already been taken over by our people, how could someone still be harming the formation, could there be an accident?"
Zhang Wenfeng immediately operated the computer and said, "I’ll contact the Chu Family and find out. Please, elders, stay calm for a moment."
