Chapter 20: A Scarlet Night That Is Not Peaceful

In a hospital room somewhere

"Uh..."

As soon as the treatment was completed, Lei Zheng, who was lying on the hospital bed, let out a painful moan, and then opened her eyes as deep as the sea, her body was covered with bandages, and her pale face was no longer heroic, only deep exhaustion appeared.

A short, stocky, kind-eyed old woman sat beside her, looking at Lei Zheng with concern.

"Zheng'er, are you awake, do you want to drink water?"

When Lei Zheng saw the master, he seemed to think of something, his face changed, he raised his upper body suddenly, and his tone was anxious:

"Master! Cough... Cough... How?"

Lei Zheng covered his heart and coughed violently.

Seeing her apprentice like this, Granny Jin frowned, she leaned forward and gently patted Lei Zheng's back, making her feel a little better.

"Don't worry, the old man and Mrs. Hong arrived in time, and the two little ones were not injured."

There was a hint of helplessness in Granny Jin's tone, "It's a pity that the life marks on your body were cut by the enemy, although the injuries on your body have been largely healed, but your current realm has fallen to the second tribulation, even if the Duke gives you enough resources, if you want to return to the fifth tribulation, you will have to waste at least seven or eight years." ”

When he heard that Brother Hong Xiaobai was fine, Lei Zheng's heart was slightly relieved, but when Granny Jin said that her life mark was cut, she was shocked, after all, generally speaking, only a strong person above the fate observation level can cut an untouchable life mark, and the source of the life mark is generally not good......

Later, when she heard that she only needed seven or eight years to recover, she felt at ease, after all, she was still a source envoy of the body robbery realm, and she could live for hundreds of years, just seven or eight years, and she didn't have to pay attention to it at all.

Lei Zheng smiled lightly: "Master, it's already very good that I can pick up a life this time, but it's just a delay of a few years, so I should relax for a while." ”

"......" Granny Kim opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to speak.

Seeing the appearance of the master, Lei Zheng, who understood Granny Jin, felt a little bad, and she barely squeezed out a smile on her pale face:

"Master, do you have anything else to say to me?"

"Alas......"

Granny Jin hesitated for a while, sighed, and finally spoke:

"The scars of your life have been cut off, and part of your life has been cut off... There are only about forty years left......"

Forty years......

Lei Zheng's heart sank suddenly, and he looked at the old man in front of him blankly, his eyes slowly losing their luster.

Forty years, just forty years...

If you can't break through the contemplation of fate in these 40 years......

Lei Zheng's heart twitched violently, and she clutched her heart, gasping for air.

"Zheng'er!"

Hong Taibai, who had finished dealing with the matter at hand, had just walked out of the closed laboratory, and received a communication from Zuo Wenting, after hearing that his two sons were fine and Lei Zheng was seriously injured, he immediately rushed to the treatment center, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Lei Zheng's painful appearance.

The scar of life is broken... Hong Taibai's heart sank slightly.

"Drank it. Hong Taibai took out a small bottle of transparent liquid, opened the cap, and handed it to Lei Zheng's hand.

Lei Zheng took the bottle in a daze, tilted his head and drank it up.

"Huh?" Lei Zheng only felt a burst of warmth emanating from his body to his whole body, and his whole body and soul were much more relaxed.

"It's... World Blood!"

Feeling the breath emanating from the bottle held by Lei Zheng, Granny Jin cried out in surprise.

"World Blood!" Lei Zheng's heart shook slightly.

World Blood, it is said to be made by using the core left behind by destroying a small world, and the rest of the benefits are needless to say, the most important point is... It can increase the life of the source envoy! It can be used from the source to the wheel, which is nothing more than the amount of life increased.

In this world, the source technique that requires the consumption of longevity to use is never rare, in the eyes of most source envoys, such a thing as longevity is equivalent to consumables, and they are never stingy in order to achieve their goals, so this treasure that can increase longevity is extremely sought-after and extremely rare.

"Zheng'er, this vial of world blood has probably increased your lifespan by three hundred years, and in a few months, you will be able to return to the Five Tribulations."

Hong Taibai rubbed Lei Zheng's head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, even if you don't break through after a few years, your father will find something else to help you prolong your life." ”

"Father..."Lei Zheng was greatly moved, since the first generation of the Hong family entered the wheel realm in the seventh turn and never came back, the Hong family no longer has the ability to produce this level of longevity treasures, and now it is ......

"Zheng'er, don't worry, I promised your father and your mother that I will take good care of you", Hong Taibai's eyes revealed murderous aura, "Now that you are injured like this, no matter who is behind the scenes, I will not let him go!"

Looking at the touching scene of the father's kindness and daughter's filial piety on the side, Granny Jin only felt a burst of sadness, Zheng'er's life was broken, and it was basically impossible to break through the realm of viewing fate, and where is the treasure that can increase the life span of the source envoy of the body realm so easy to find...

Seeing the duke's appearance, he also specially used the breath of world blood to hide the traces of Zheng'er's life, and it seems that he didn't plan to tell Zheng'er about it......

“...... That's the way it is, father. ”

Lei Zheng gave Hong Taibai a detailed description of what happened today.

"Well, I'll continue to investigate this matter, just rest well, and contact me if there's anything. ”

Hong Taibai thought for a while, stood up, said goodbye to Granny Jin, and then turned around and hurriedly left the ward.

Yongding City, in the palace, the imperial study

Feng Yan in a dragon robe sat behind the gorgeous desk, shadows shrouded in shadows, so that Feng Jiuhe, who was standing in front of him, couldn't see his expression at all.

"The head of the family, Hong Taibai's two sons were attacked in Xingyue Pavilion, although Xingyue Pavilion did have a certain amount of negligence, but Zuo Wenting actually didn't ask about it, and directly beat the old man's son to serious injury, this is not taking our Feng family in the eyes at all!"

The white-haired Feng Jiuhe burst into tears, and reprimanded the Hong family's great rebellion hoarsely.

"Poor old man is such a son! Spread his wings, this child is timid when he is young, he has always been honest in life and work, and he is safe and secure.

Originally, he was an idle petty official, and he never fought with others for anything or robbed anything. I didn't think about it... I was almost beaten to death for no reason... The old man, a father who has no ability, can't do anything... It's better to just crash and die here!"

Feng Jiuhe cried and was about to turn around and crash against the wall.

"Uncle Nine!"

Feng Yan reluctantly spoke out to stop the wind Jiuhe, a dignified elder, but he made this miserable appearance in front of his junior, and Feng Yan also understood that it was not easy for his ninth uncle.

But after all, he is the head of the Feng family, and his actions are small to make people see jokes, and his actions are big, in this special situation, it is not good that those families think that the Feng family is going to attack them, and it is possible to directly reverse them......

"Uncle Jiu, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter, but the specific way to do it still needs to be carefully studied......"

"Master of the family! The hardships of spreading your wings cannot be eaten in vain, and the face of the Feng family cannot be lost in vain! The old man also believes that you will help our father and son get justice and save face for the Feng family! Let others know that our Feng family is the master of the scarlet night!

Ahem, ahem... The old man will take his leave first. ”

As if changing his face, Feng Jiuhe, who was still crying to death, wiped his sleeves towards his face, and directly looked like an indifferent old man, bowed to Feng Yan, and slowly left from the imperial study.

"Alas......" Feng Yan sighed with a wry smile, and sat back on the chair, the fingers of his right hand tapping rhythmically on the tabletop.

"Kazekage. ”

With the sound of the wind, a dark humanoid gas appeared in front of his eyes, and a dull sound came from the constantly churning gas.

"My lord, what do you command? ”

"What do you think I should do?"

"Whoever offends the majesty of our lord should be killed!"

"Who offended my majesty?"

"The old man just now. ”

"No, wasn't he very respectful just now? When he is older, he has to sell miserably for his son, pitiful. ”

"He threatened my lord, and... His spiritual source was contaminated with the breath of Feng Sanhao. ”

"Hehe, relying on the gadgets I just gotten, I actually started to move on my own people, it seems that my third uncle wants to... Damn it..."

Feng Yan's tone was extremely calm, but there was a chilling cold light flashing in his eyes.

"My lord, do you need your subordinates to kill Feng Sanhao. ”

Speaking of killing Duke Hao in the Fate Realm, Kazekage's tone was as simple as killing a chicken.

"No, wait a minute, although my father and grandmother haven't come back yet, and my grandfather is still in retreat and cultivating, except for those few people, no one else knows that my father and grandmother have gone to the Wheel Turning Realm, and my third uncle actually made a move on Uncle Nine, who gave him so much courage? Just with the gadgets that his son summoned when he was enlightened?"

"You're saying there might be outsiders behind him?"

"It's very likely, I have to wait for grandpa to come out, now the strength of the whole scarlet night is at a low point, although everyone is racing acting now, but Eve's side is already tempting, last time grandpa scared them, but there are always guys who are not afraid of death..."

"If anyone knows the true situation of the Scarlet Night Royals and the other eight families......"

"Could it be that this attack on the Hong family is someone testing whether Hong Zhaobai is still in Xinghuo City?"

“...... You think too much, the Hong family has only risen for two generations, and they can't hide people at all, but... It is very likely that someone has an idea about Hong Zhaobai's return. ”

“...... So what are your orders when you call your subordinates out?" the owner of the voice seemed to be a little impatient, and the black mist was surging violently.

"Later, you will accompany me to see Feng Sanhao's son, Feng Aotian. The last time I saw this guy, I always felt that something was not right, and when I came back, I felt that something was missing, but after thinking about it, I didn't know what it was. When the wind is proud of the source of the Apocalypse, the thing summoned is also very demonic, this kid is a bit evil. ”

"Yes. ”

The black mist rushed towards the shadow of Fengyan, and finally lost its trace completely.

At the same time, the various families in Scarlet Night are making all kinds of speculations about the attack on Hong Xiaobai's brothers......
