Chapter 14: The Universal Set

ack. I'm having a few drinks with Ling Hao and Lu Yue at lunchtime!" Qin Hongyuan said with a smile.Bang!Before his words could even leave his lips, a deafening roar erupted from the phone's speaker."...[ ]

"Hmm!" At the sound of Ruirui's voice, Ling Hao trembled all over and involuntarily stopped his steps.

"Xiao Li, how's it going" Lei Hongkun's voice was deep on the phone, his right eyelid twitching wildly at the same time.

"Dad...save me..." Lei Yunli shouted loudly into the phone, "He...he's going to kill me..."

"Give him your phone!" Lei Hongkun said after letting out a mouthful of foul air.

"Alright... good..." Lei Yunli hurriedly nodded and handed her phone to Ling Hao. "Your... your daughter wants to talk to you..."

Phew!

Ling Hao took a deep breath before taking the phone and looking at it.

"Kid, if you dare touch Xiaoli, don't even think about seeing your daughter again!" After Lei Hongkun finished speaking, he pointed the camera at Ruirui.

Slap!

Then, he slapped Riru across the face. A clear handprint immediately appeared on Riru's face.

"Little wildcat, don't you miss your father Go say hello to him!" Lei Hongkun spoke coldly.

Boom!

Seeing this scene, a boundless wave of killing intent erupted from Ling Hao's body, instantly filling the entire hall. His eyes were filled with endless coldness.

Lei Yunli's legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground in front of him.

"Dad... RuiRui finally sees you... You're really my dad..." RuiRui burst into tears when she saw Ling Hao.

"Daddy... RuiRui is so scared... When will you come save me..."

"Ruirui, don't be afraid..." Ling Hao only managed to say a few words before he choked with sobs, tears welling up uncontrollably in his eyes.

"Daddy... you don't cry... You're a hero... Mommy said heroes never cry..." Riri continued to cry.

"Okay, Dad promises you, Dad won't cry!" Ling Hao forced himself to steady his emotions: "Ruirui don't hit, Dad promises you, we can take you home very soon!"

"Well... Ruirui believes in Daddy... Daddy will definitely take Ruirui home..."

Slap!

Before Li Rui could finish speaking, Lei Hongkun slapped her again. Her delicate face immediately swelled up.

"Ah..." Ruru screamed, her frail body trembling uncontrollably.

"If you dare to touch Ruo Ruo again, I'll kill you and your children!" Ling Hao had reached the edge of utter fury, his eyes bloodshot.

"Is that so" Lei Hongkun snorted coldly.

Then, he picked up a dagger from the side and waved it in front of Ruru's eyes: "You can try!"

"Wow..." Rui Rui was so scared that she burst into tears: "Daddy... I'm so scared... Come save me... I'm really scared..."

Slap!

Another slap sounded.

"Brat, shut your mouth, you're being annoying! If you cry again, I'll cut out your tongue!"

"Woooo..." Rui Rui was so frightened that her whole body trembled. Her eyes were full of terror, and she desperately clenched her lips shut.

Whew!

Ling Hao took another deep breath, calming himself down. At this moment, being too impulsive would only hurt Ruo Ruo.

Then, he looked at Lei Hongkun and said word by word: "What do you want"

"Aren't you very arrogant You're admitting defeat so quickly" Lei Hongkun said, his voice dropping.

"Release Xiaoli and Xiaoguang at once, or you'll never see your daughter again!"

"Do you think that's possible" Ling Hao was surrounded by a deadly aura.

"Heh heh, you can choose not to release!" Lei Hongkun sneered after slashing a bloody gash on Ruirui's arm with his dagger.

"Ah..." Rui Rui fainted again after letting out a loud cry from being too scared.

"I give you one minute to consider. If you don't let him go, I'll have your daughter's body collected for you!" Lei Hongkun continued to speak coldly.

"Ah..." Seeing RuiRui's situation, Ling Hao let out a pained cry to the heavens.

Pffft!

With his qi and blood attacking his heart, he opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood. His entire breath became extremely disordered.

"Commander, please take care of your health!" Lu Yue walked over with a worried expression on his face. After a slight pause, he continued to say,

Let them go, we'll wait here at Lei's residence for Rirui. There are so many people in Lei's courtyard; Lei Hongkun couldn't possibly ignore their lives and deaths!

"Hmm!"

After letting out a heavy sigh of foul air, Ling Hao looked at Lei Hongkun with bloodshot eyes, each word coming out slowly.

I'll be waiting for you at the Lei family courtyard. If anything happens to Ruirui, I'll make sure every single person in your Lei family pays with their lives!

Click! Click!

As soon as the words left his mouth, the force in his hand suddenly increased, and the phone immediately turned into a pile of shards that rained down.

"Can we go now" Seeing this, Lei Yunli's confidence seemed to return. She asked coldly.

“Get out!” Lu Yue roared angrily.

Wow!

Those lying on the ground, as if granted amnesty, scrambled to their feet.

Two men helped Lei Xiaoguang up, supporting him as he limped toward the door. The others followed close behind.

Lei Yunli then glanced at Ling Hao and the other: "We'll be waiting for you at the Lei family courtyard. Don't be a turtle hiding its head!"

Bang!

Before her words could even finish, a strong gust of wind swept out from Ling Hao's palm, directly flinging her out the door.

After crashing down hard, the scenery and the ground had an intimate encounter, while at least several ribs were broken.

"Ah..." A pig-killing scream followed, and she fainted with her eyes rolling back. "Miss!" Everyone shouted in alarm, and then quickly carried Lei Yunli into the car.

Facing the two formidable figures of Ling Hao, these people didn't even want to stay for a second longer.

Meanwhile.

The first person in charge of the Yun Cheng battle zone, Mu Tiejun, sat in his large armchair, deep in thought.

A cigarette in hand, smoke curling around it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A hurried footstep sounded, followed by a burly man bursting into the office without even knocking. His face was ashen.

"Xu Biao, are you itching again I've warned you so many times, come in and knock!" Mu Tiejun glared at him.

"Big boss, something big has happened!" Xu Biao walked to the tea table and picked up a bottle of mineral water, gulping it down.

"You're at least the second-in-command of the Yun City War Zone! Can you just stay focused!" Mu Tiejun rebuked him angrily.

"Something big is happening!" Xu Biao caught his breath: "I just got word that, just now, nearly a thousand people gathered in Yun City from all directions!"

"Are you crazy" Mu Tiejun glared at him again.

"Although Yun Cheng is not a big city, at least hundreds of thousands of people enter the city every day in different ways."

"And now you tell me that because a thousand people gathered in Yun Cheng, it's considered a big deal!"

"Boss, why don't you ask who they all are Who's the leader" Xu Biao continued.

"Cut the crap!"

"Judge!"

"Who is the judge He…" Mu Tiejun's words were cut short as his wrist jerked, sending the cigarette tumbling onto the desk.

His face turned pale with a sudden change, and he glared at Xu Biao: "You goddamn say that again"

"The Gatekeeper of Shadows, one of the five blades, Eastern District's leader, Yanluo!" Xu Biao swallowed hard.

He brought nearly a thousand members of the Shadow Sect to Yun City!

"Really!" Mu Tiejun jumped up from his chair, his whole body tingling. "Is the news accurate"

"Do you think I would joke about this"

"Did you find out the specific reason"

"No!" Xu Biao shook his head.

"What about them" Mu Tiejun asked again.

Beep! Beep!

At this moment, Xu Biao's phone buzzed with a message notification. He picked it up and looked at it, his face suddenly changing color.

After taking a deep breath, I looked at Mu Tiejun: "Unless something unexpected happens, their destination should be the Lei family!"

"Well!" Mu Tiejun frowned. "Has anything unusual happened to the Lei family these past few days"

"I don't know either!" Xu Biao shook his head.

Whew!

Mu Tiejun let out a foul breath and then commanded in a low voice, "Immediately inform the standby members of the Special Forces to assemble and follow me to the Lei family!"

He couldn't help but be nervous. As the head of the Yun Cheng battle zone, he naturally knew what the Shadow Gate meant!

Whenever someone from the Shadow Gate appears, it means something has happened.

And now, over a thousand Yingmen disciples have gathered in Yun City!

He didn't need to think hard to know this was a big deal, and it was going to be a huge one!

"Yes!" Xu Biao saluted and turned to leave.

In five minutes.

Ten armored troop carriers, ten off-road vehicles, a roar of engines, all racing towards Lei's location. angrily."One!" Ling Hao spoke."You..." Wu Jianqiang, consumed by anger, spoke again."Mr. Wu!" The thin old man walked up to the man and whispered a few words in his ear."Huh" Upon hearing the elder'...
