Chapter 348: This Could Be a Big Trouble
Cold Brow mentioned her sister, Ouyang Bing, who is known as Cold as Ice.
How could Cold as Ice be in trouble?
Xiao Yun suddenly sat up straight and asked, "Sister-in-law, take your time and tell me what happened to Ice Sister?"
Cold Brow explained that she had planned to stay in the company dormitory with Tang Yan that night, but just after taking a shower, she received calls from Torpedo and Cao Tianwei urging her to come home quickly, saying that Cold as Ice had been shot and was unconscious…
As for how Cold as Ice got shot, it seemed that Cold Brow was so frightened that she couldn't explain clearly over the phone.
Xiao Yun said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I'll come right over."
An Yiran anxiously asked, "Xiao Yun, who called? What happened?"
Xiao Yun put away her phone, stood up, and said, "It was Cold Brow. Her sister is in some trouble, and I need to go check on her. By the way, Sister Yiran, please take Nie Xiaoqian upstairs to sleep and keep an eye on Qiu Yue!"
"Okay, you be careful!" An Yiran replied.
Xiao Yun drove quickly to Lu Manor.
At the entrance of Lu Manor, several bodyguards were stationed. When Torpedo saw Xiao Yun arrive, he hurriedly led her inside and then to a room in the backyard. He pushed open a door inside and moved a floor panel to reveal a hidden chamber below.
Entering the basement, under the lights, Cold as Ice lay unconscious on the bed while Cold Brow, Cao Tianwei, and the Vice Hall Master of the Four Major Branches anxiously stood by her side.
"Xiao Yun, you're here! Ouyang Bing has been shot and hasn't woken up yet..." Cold Brow rushed towards Xiao Yun like a drowning person grabbing onto a lifeline upon seeing her arrive.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, let me take a look at Ice Sister's injuries!"
Actually, as soon as Xiao Yun entered the room, he had already activated his Spiritual Sense and saw that Cold as Ice had been shot in the left chest. Fortunately, the bullet was lodged between her ribs and did not hit any vital areas.
Xiao Yun approached the bed, lifted the blanket covering Cold as Ice, and found that her left chest was almost soaked in blood. Noticing her steady breathing, he concluded that she was only temporarily unconscious and not in serious danger.
Xiao Yun said, "It's not a big problem. Don't worry, I will help her remove the bullet from her body!"
With that, he used his ability to manipulate objects from a distance, placing his palm over the area of Cold as Ice's left chest. With a gentle shake, the bullet flew into his palm.
Cao Tianwei and the others watched in astonishment; they had never seen such impressive magic before.
Then, Xiao Yun infused two streams of Spiritual Energy into Cold as Ice's injured area. In just a moment, Cold as Ice gasped and opened her eyes.
"Ouyang Bing, how are you?" Cold Brow asked anxiously as he stepped forward.
Cold as Ice sat up from the bed and pressed her hand against her left chest. She felt no pain at all and smiled, "Sister, I'm fine now. It feels like I was never injured."
The people around were astonished as they looked at Xiao Yun.
This guy was simply extraordinary!
He was like a god!
At that moment, Cold as Ice noticed Xiao Yun standing nearby and exclaimed, "Xiao Yun, you're here! Did you help me remove the bullet?"
Xiao Yun smiled and replied, "Yes, fortunately, judging by the bullet, it was fired from a homemade gun with relatively low lethality. Luckily it didn't hit any vital spots; otherwise, it would have been difficult to handle!"
The others couldn't believe their eyes. This man named Xiao seemed to be beyond human capabilities; he had healed Cold as Ice's gunshot wound in the blink of an eye. Could he really be a god?
“Xiao Yun, thank you so much for saving my sister!” Cold Brow said with tears in her eyes, her voice trembling with emotion.
Xiao Yun sighed softly. He could tell from Cold Brow's tone what was on her mind.
Earlier, when she offered her body to him, he understood that it was not just a moment of impulse from a woman; it was more about her seeking his protection in a time of helplessness.
—Because she had lost her support!
In this world, the law of the jungle seemed to be an unchanging truth. Even though the loyal Four Great Hall Masters of Wolf Gang were by her side, as the wife of the Grand Master, Cold Brow still felt like a solitary crane; she was genuinely afraid.
What was she afraid of?
Because Lu Jiutang was gone, was there anyone who could protect her better than her husband?
Actually, Xiao Yun wanted to tell her that since Lu Ge had entrusted her to him, he would definitely…
However, he didn't know how to make her understand his feelings.
“Sister-in-law, there's no need to be polite,” Xiao Yun turned to ask Cold as Ice, “Tell me, I want to know what exactly is going on here?”
“Let me explain,” Cao Tianwei said.
He informed Xiao Yun that they had long suspected that the death of the Vice Hall Master was related to Hong Qichang of the Flying Tiger Gang.
To avenge Lu the Grand Master, they had started planning over two days ago on how to find the culprit behind the assassination of the Grand Master.
According to their thoughts, even if they were to confront their enemy, Hong Qichang would not personally show up; it would definitely be his subordinates, the Five Tiger Generals, who would take action.
To prevent innocent bloodshed, they sent people to secretly investigate what those five generals were doing on the day when Lu the Great Hall Master met with misfortune.
After some twists and turns, they discovered that it was Blade from the Flying Tiger Gang's Five Tigers who had brought people to the National Purchase Supermarket that day, and those individuals were armed with homemade pistols.
Everything was clear now.
Cold as Ice informed Cao Tianwei to keep a close watch on Blade.
That very night, someone reported to Cold as Ice that Blade had brought some people to a hotel.
Cold as Ice acknowledged this.
At the same time, she instructed the reporter not to tell anyone about it.
However, this information quickly reached Cao Tianwei's ears, and he sensed something was off.
The issue was that Cold as Ice intended to take revenge on Master Lu by herself. She had meticulously devised a plan to redirect the Wolf Gang into legitimate business, so if anything went wrong, it would solely be her responsibility.
Cold as Ice publicly asked Torpedo to procure firearms, yet she went alone.
Clearly, even procuring firearms was just a ruse; Cold as Ice wanted everyone to believe that they were all working together for Master Lu's revenge. In reality, she was preparing to act in the shadows by herself.
It turned out that Cold as Ice did not want to implicate any member of the Wolf Gang.
Cao Tianwei realized something was amiss and immediately notified the other brothers. He secretly gathered weapons and rushed to the hotel, but it was already too late.
Cold as Ice had killed Blade and his associates in the bar, but she herself had been shot and lay in a pool of blood.
Cao Tianwei knew that the police would arrive soon since a life had been lost, and with Cold as Ice's identity exposed, he dared not take her to a hospital. Instead, he brought her to this basement in Lu Manor.
After listening to Cao Tianwei's account, Xiao Yun paused for a moment and asked Cold as Ice, "What do you plan to do now?"
"I know that killing Blade this time was too obvious, and the police must be after me. If I can leave the galaxy, I want to go to Viper Town," Cold as Ice said.
Cold as Ice told Xiao Yun that Viper Town is located at the border between Huaxia and Myanmar. Due to its unique geographical position, it is an area without government control. A few years ago, when she was training in martial arts, she had a senior brother who has now established his own army in Viper Town, dominating the area. She wanted to go seek him out.
"Can you help me leave Galaxy Town?" Cold as Ice asked Xiao Yun.
She also knew that since she killed Blade from Wolf Gang, the police must be chasing her throughout the Galactic District.
Her actions this time were too impulsive; when she used her knife against Blade, many people present recognized her as the Boss Lady of Passion Bar.
After being saved by Xiao Yun, she realized that impulsiveness is a devil, and she did not want to die.
Not only did she not want to die, but she also wanted to become stronger.
Before Xiao Yun could respond to her question, someone rushed in and said, "It's bad! A group of police officers has come outside!"
Xiao Yun asked, "Who is leading them?"
The person replied, "It's Captain Ouyang Bing from the Criminal Investigation Team."
Oh no, Xiao Yun knew that if Ouyang Bing was here, it would be a big problem!
