Chapter 348 Yu Lingxi is seriously injured
As night fell, the gate of the Yu family manor burst open with the sound of hurried footsteps. Mr. Wei, covered in dust, staggered over the threshold, holding the dying and bloodstained Yu Lingxi in his arms.
As soon as she crossed the boundary that symbolized the family's honor, Yu Lingxi became like a kite with a broken string. She completely lost consciousness, and her delicate body fell weakly into Mr. Wei's arms.
"Lingxi! Mr. Wei!"
An anxious cry broke the silence of the night. Yu Lingyuan, the young patriarch of the Yu family, moved upon hearing the sound and appeared at the gate almost instantly, with disbelief and panic written all over his face.
Mr. Wei's face was pale and his eyes were heavy. He forced himself to remain calm and whispered to Yu Lingyuan.
"Master, the eldest lady... was seriously injured by Lei Tingyi."
Upon hearing this, Yu Lingyuan's handsome face instantly twisted, anger and heartache intertwined, and he growled with gritted teeth.
"Lei Tingyi! How dare he..."
Seeing this, Mr. Wei interrupted quickly, his tone full of unquestionable determination.
"Master, the most urgent matter is the young lady's injury! We must treat her as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Lingyuan's eyes flashed with determination. He took his sister from Mr. Wei's hands with gentle but firm movements, as if he wanted to turn all his anger and worry into strength to protect his sister.
He looked down at the unconscious Yu Lingxi, his eyes full of pity, then looked up and said to Mr. Wei.
"Go and ask the family physician, the one who has always treated the young lady, to come quickly!"
Mr. Wei nodded in agreement and was about to turn around when Yu Lingyuan added.
"Mr. Wei, please come with me and tell me what happened in detail."
After saying that, Yu Lingyuan held Yu Lingxi in his arms and walked towards the inner courtyard at a steady and quick pace, each step revealing his unquestionable determination and strength.
Mr. Wei followed closely behind, reporting what had happened quickly and concisely as he walked. The two men's figures were elongated in the dim light, appearing particularly heavy.
In the inner courtyard, the lights were on, and the family doctor had been hastily awakened and was waiting anxiously.
Yu Lingyuan gently placed Yu Lingxi on the couch, his eyes fixed on the doctor's every move. The anxiety and uneasiness in his heart surged like the tide, but he could only suppress them and not let them affect the treatment at hand.
The night was still long, but the Yu family could no longer be peaceful because of this sudden change.
Yu Lingyuan's gaze stayed on Mr. Wei for a long time, with a complicated expression, including confusion and a bit of blame, but more of it was deep worry about the current situation.
"Mr. Wei, you are already a master in the Spirit Severing Stage, and one of the best in our Yu family. Could it be that... even you are no match for Lei Tingyi?"
Hearing this, Mr. Wei smiled bitterly, sighed, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
"Master, you don't know. At that time, in order to ensure that the plan was foolproof, the eldest lady used her special poisonous insects to pin down all the masters around Lei Tingyi. It should have been a foolproof layout. However, Lei Tingyi... He is now at the peak of the Spirit Severing Stage, and his strength is beyond imagination. Not only has his cultivation improved rapidly, but what is more terrifying is his keenness and strategy in battle, which is almost unmatched."
After hearing this, Yu Lingyuan frowned, clenched his hands into fists, and dug his nails deeply into his palms, but he seemed not to feel any pain.
He knew very well what the peak strength of the Spirit Severing Stage meant. It was almost like stepping into the ranks of the top powerful people in the world of cultivation. And Lei Tingyi, an opponent that they had originally not taken seriously, had actually grown to this point.
"What about Lingxi...how is she doing now?" Yu Lingyuan's voice was low and hoarse, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
Mr. Wei's expression darkened and he answered in a low voice.
"The eldest lady's injuries are extremely serious, especially the injuries caused by Lei Tingyi's special skills, which have damaged her fundamentals. However, the family doctor is doing his best to treat her, and I hope there will be a turn for the better."
Yu Lingyuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his inner turmoil.
He knew that now was not the time to be immersed in emotions, and he had to make a decision as soon as possible to protect his family and seek justice for Lingxi.
"Mr. Wei, you must immediately gather all the experts who can fight and strengthen the defense of the manor. As for Lei Tingyi... our Yu family will never let this account go."
Yu Lingyuan opened his eyes, with determination and coldness flashing in them, as if in an instant, the gentle head of the family turned into a cold-blooded warrior.
Mr. Wei nodded and was about to leave when Yu Lingyuan called him again.
"Also, regarding Lingxi's poisonous insects...make sure they don't fall into the hands of outsiders. If necessary, destroy them at all costs."
Mr. Wei agreed again, turned and left, but prayed secretly in his heart, hoping that the storm would subside as soon as possible so that the Yu family could return to peace.
Yu Lingyuan, on the other hand, quietly stayed by Yu Lingxi's bed, waiting for a miracle to happen, while also planning every future move in his mind.
Yu Lingyuan's thoughts were like surging waves, difficult to calm down.
His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something crucial. Suddenly, he asked.
"Can the people of Lei Xiao Sect cure the poison Ling Xi has placed on us?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wei sighed again, his brows revealing deep worry.
"Master, I originally thought it was impossible. The eldest lady's Gu technique is unparalleled in the world. Even I find it difficult to get a glimpse of her full potential, let alone an outsider. But... Lei Tingyi and the woman named Ling Jiuan, they both seem to be out of the control of the Gu worm, which makes me feel very uneasy. For a moment, I was not sure whether they have the ability to remove the poison."
Upon hearing this, Yu Lingyuan frowned even more tightly. He knew very well that Lei Xiao Sect was a major sect in the world of cultivation and had a profound foundation. It might really be hiding some unknown secrets and methods.
The performances of Lei Tingyi and Ling Jiuan undoubtedly exacerbated his uneasiness.
"Mr. Wei, you must investigate this matter. If the Lei Xiao Sect can really cure our poison, it will be a huge threat to us. At the same time, we must also pay close attention to Lei Tingyi's movements. Since he dared to hurt Lingxi, he must pay the price."
Mr. Wei nodded in agreement, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.
He knew that the Yu family would probably not have peace in the days ahead.
The rise of Lei Tingyi and the power of the Lei Xiao Sect that may be hidden behind him will become huge challenges that the Yu family will have to face.
"Master, I will find out everything as soon as possible, and I will also strengthen the family's defenses. But... Miss's injuries still require your attention and care."
There was some concern in Mr. Wei's words.
Yu Lingyuan nodded slightly, his gaze fell on the unconscious Yu Lingxi again, a hint of tenderness and determination flashed in his eyes.
"Lingxi is my sister and the hope of the Yu family. No matter how much it costs, I will make her wake up and recover as before."
As the night deepened, the Yu family manor was still brightly lit.
