Chapter 808 — The Yu Family's Decision

The Blossom Guardian

In his eyes, he and Yu Haitian now shared a common enemy, and it was not out of the question for their relationship to go one step further.

"No, I still need to look into the Gu Group and Wei Zhao a bit more, then report back to the head of the family so we can come up with a good way to deal with Wei Zhao as soon as possible!" Yu Haitian said.

"That works too. Next time, then—once my legs are better, let's go out and have some fun together!" Zhao Qibing did not press him to stay. He knew Yu Haitian surely had urgent business to attend to.

After leaving the Geili Fuyun Bar, Yu Haitian lost no time in relaying the information he had gathered to the Yu family far away in Yanjing.

Yu Shuixing, Yu Bide, and Yu Feng were all seated outside Yu Kun's room. This time the beautiful middle-aged woman from before—Yu Kun's mother—was not present. This was a family meeting of the Yu family, and at present only the second and third sons of the Yu family and Yu Feng, the second son's child, were in attendance.

Both the Yu family's old master and its head had already broken through the Profound Tier and advanced to Earth Tier experts. The old master spent the year in seclusion, and the head had gone off to continue cultivating over there, so at present the ones managing affairs were only the two Yu brothers and the younger generation, Yu Feng and Yu Kun!

Of course, the Yu family had another branch—Yu Haitian's branch—but Yu Haitian was unsuited to martial training, and his parents had died young, so at present he alone remained to handle the family's business affairs.

"What do you all make of the news Little Tian sent back?" Yu Shuixing asked Yu Bide and Yu Feng, his expression grave as he studied the dossier on Wei Zhao in his hands.

"Second Brother, I am now ninety percent certain that Little Kun was injured by this Wei Zhao!" As Yu Bide said this, deep hatred glimmered in his eyes. Though Yu Kun was not as gifted as Yu Feng, in the eyes of the other great families he was still a genius—possessing late Yellow Tier strength at such a young age, his future could be called boundless!

Yet who would have thought he would be injured at Wei Zhao's hands? How could Yu Bide not feel heartache and hatred?

"Yes, that is our current guess, but the truth will have to wait until Little Kun wakes up..." Yu Shuixing nodded.

"Second Brother, are we just going to let it go? Little Kun is injured for nothing, and we won't seek out that Wei Zhao to avenge him?" Yu Bide said anxiously.

"Of course we won't just let it go." Yu Shuixing waved his hand. "But do you think Zhao Qibing is a fool? Do you think the hidden Zhao family are fools?"

"That..." Yu Bide was stunned, dimly sensing something.

"Wei Zhao broke the legs of the Zhao family's illegitimate son Zhao Qibing, injured Zhu Bo, an early Profound Tier expert, and even killed two Yellow Tier experts—what kind of grudge is that?" Yu Shuixing asked in a low voice. "Do you think the Zhao family would let it go so easily? This is no longer a question of face—this is provocation!"

"They wouldn't... but they..." Yu Bide's breath caught, his expression somewhat aghast. "So you mean they are wary of something? Zhao Qibing wasn't telling the truth?"

Yu Shuixing nodded, then waved his hand again. "Whether Zhao Qibing told the truth, I don't know! He is only an illegitimate son of the Zhao family—whether he can even touch the secrets of the Zhao family's upper echelons is hard to say. But the Zhao family's upper echelons have made no move to this day, and Wei Zhao is still hopping around alive and well in Songshan City. Doesn't that tell us something?"

"Second Brother, you're right! I was a bit rash and didn't think it through thoroughly!" Yu Bide nodded, his expression grave.

"Your eagerness for revenge is understandable!" Yu Shuixing sighed. "But don't I also want to avenge Little Kun? You are his father, but Yu Kun is also one of us Yu family!"

"Then, in your opinion, Second Brother, what should we do now..." Yu Bide asked cautiously.

"Wait and see..." Yu Shuixing in fact had no good plan either. "I think we should first get to the bottom of Wei Zhao's background! Then, once Little Kun wakes up and we confirm it was Wei Zhao who struck, it won't be too late to decide!"

"That works too... Then let Little Tian investigate a bit more in Songshan City!" Yu Bide nodded.

"But our Yu family's business in Yanjing still needs Little Tian to manage..." Yu Shuixing hesitated somewhat, though Little Kun's matter was also of the utmost importance.

"Father, let me go to Songshan City and meet this Wei Zhao! Brother Tian has no martial skill, so it is always dangerous for him over there. I am already an expert at the peak of early Profound Tier—I doubt Wei Zhao can do anything to me!" Yu Feng volunteered. "If I go to investigate, it will be safer..."

"That..." Yu Shuixing had not expected Yu Feng to volunteer to go to Songshan City to investigate! Using him to replace Yu Haitian was indeed a good choice, but Yu Shuixing also feared Yu Feng might stir up some trouble! After all, he was young and reckless, had carried out very few missions, and had always been cultivating at home.

But when he thought of Yu Feng's current strength, Yu Haixing felt there was really nothing to worry about. Peak early Profound Tier—Wei Zhao was probably only early Profound Tier himself, otherwise he could not have fought Zhu Bo to a standstill.

Yu Haixing did not believe Wei Zhao had been afraid to kill Zhu Bo. If he had feared offending the Zhao family beyond repair, he would never have finished off two of their Yellow Tier experts. And it was the same with Yu Kun this time: Wei Zhao's strength had likely only just broken through to the Profound Tier and was still unstable, which was why he had failed to kill even Yu Kun.

As for those two Yellow Tier experts of the Zhao family, they had died when their car overturned. In Yu Haixing's view, it must have been some scheme of Wei Zhao's. So with Yu Feng's strength, there would be no problem dominating Songshan City.

"Father, no one is better suited to go than I am. You and Third Uncle can't very well go yourselves, can you?" Yu Feng said.

"Fine, you may go, but your main task is to find out what Wei Zhao is really made of, not to go looking for trouble. Best not to get into any conflict with him!" Yu Haixing hesitated a moment, then agreed.

"Hmph, of course I won't go looking for trouble. What I worry about is him coming after me—but that would be even better. Then I won't need an excuse. One palm strike and he's dead, and Yu Kun is avenged!" Yu Feng said with a touch of arrogance.

"Still, try to avoid conflict if you can..." Yu Haixing did not close the door entirely. If it really came to pass as Yu Feng said, and they were bullied to their faces, they could hardly not hit back, could they? If he killed the man then, no one could say a word against it.

Even if Wei Zhao had backing, the Yu family was not to be trifled with. If he was killed, he was killed—who would dare make anything of it?

At this thought, Yu Haixing felt greatly reassured.

"I understand!" Seeing his father's expression, Yu Feng understood what he meant.
