Unrivaled Soldier in the City

Chapter 707: Chapter 708 The Eight-Forked Serpent

"Ruoxi, I’ll go make you some food right now," Yang Ruotong said, her eyes red. The past few days, while Yang Ruoxi was in a coma, had worried her sick. Now that her sister was finally awake, her joy was simply indescribable.

"Okay, sister," Yang Ruoxi said weakly.

"Alright, Miss Yang is out of danger now. Just make sure she rests well for the next few days," Xue Danqing said.

"Understood. Thank you, Doctor Xue," Lin Kuang said again, his voice filled with gratitude.

"Mr. Lin, you don’t need to thank me," Xue Danqing said, his tone becoming a bit awkward. "Cough, cough... but if you really want to, then I’ll be shameless enough to ask for something."

Hearing this, Lin Kuang was taken aback for a moment before replying, "Doctor Xue, please say whatever is on your mind. I, Lin Kuang, will do everything in my power to help."

"Good, then I’ll thank you in advance, Mr. Lin. Actually, I was hoping for the Snow Lotus King and the Ice Silkworm," Xue Danqing said, sounding somewhat sheepish.

These two items might not have been useful to Lin Kuang, but to Xue Danqing, their value was enormous.

Lin Kuang was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Those two items are useless to me. If you need them, Doctor Xue, please take them."

"Okay, then I’ll shamelessly accept. Thank you, Mr. Lin," Xue Danqing said with excitement. After all, the Ice Silkworm was truly vital to him.

"Doctor Xue, you’re being too polite. You saved Ruoxi. Forget a small favor like this; I would help you even if it were something much greater," Lin Kuang said earnestly.

"These two items are all I need. They are more than enough for me," Xue Danqing said with a smile. To him, the Ice Silkworm was a priceless treasure. A Snow Lotus King might be obtainable with some effort, but the Ice Silkworm was exceedingly rare—a nearly unobtainable treasure.

Lin Kuang simply smiled, not seeming to mind at all. After all, the items were useless to him. Since Xue Danqing needed them, he naturally wouldn’t be stingy.

After they exchanged a few more pleasantries, Xue Danqing and Chen Feng left. Lin Kuang personally saw them to the front gate. Only after their car drove away did Lin Kuang return to the villa.

By then, Yang Ruoxi was already able to get out of bed and walk a little, though she was still weak. However, this was enough for Lin Kuang and the others. As long as Yang Ruoxi was getting better, they were happy.

After dinner, Yang Ruoxi regained some of her spirit and gradually became more lively. Seeing this, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief. Yang Ruoxi was finally well.

The family chatted together as Lin Kuang recounted his adventures in the Heavenly Mountain, though he deliberately omitted the dangerous parts so as not to worry the women. Later that evening, Yang Ruoxi grew tired and went to her room to rest early. Lin Kuang was also exhausted from the past few days. He took a bath, returned to his room, and fell into a deep sleep.

「The next morning.」

Lin Kuang woke up early. Just as he got out of bed, his phone rang. The caller was none other than Chen Feng. Seeing the name, Lin Kuang was slightly surprised but quickly answered.

"Hello, Mr. Chen. What’s the matter?" Lin Kuang asked, curious. He had just seen Chen Feng yesterday, and he hadn’t mentioned anything. A call this early in the morning clearly meant something was up.

Hearing Lin Kuang’s question, Chen Feng’s voice turned grave. "Mr. King of the Underworld, a lot has happened while you were away. The circumstances weren’t right to discuss it yesterday, which is why I’m calling you now."

Hearing Chen Feng’s solemn tone, Lin Kuang was momentarily taken aback but still asked, "Alright, what exactly has happened?"

"Men from the Island Country have made several moves against your women recently. The attackers were quite strong, but our Wumi Building has already taken care of them in secret. We’ve also discovered that the attacks were ordered by the war faction in the Island Country. They’re targeting you because you’ve disrupted many of their plans. However, the war faction only gave the orders; the ones who actually attacked your women were from Yamata no Orochi.

"Yamata no Orochi is a very mysterious organization. Its leader is addressed by all as ’Master.’ Furthermore, our people have discovered that this organization may be connected to the Demon Sect. In fact, it’s highly likely they are an organization established by the Demon Sect!" Chen Feng’s voice was heavy. Anything related to the Demon Sect was no small matter.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang’s brows furrowed, and his expression turned serious.

"So, this organization is called Yamata no Orochi? And it’s connected to the Demon Sect! Interesting... very interesting. I didn’t realize the Demon Sect was so pervasive," Lin Kuang said with a cold laugh, his eyes glinting with murderous intent.

"Yes. The Demon Sect is incredibly powerful. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been able to spring back up like a weed after its war with the Righteous Path. That just shows their tenacity and strength," Chen Feng said, his grave tone tinged with helplessness.

"Hmm. So, are you calling to ask me to go and eliminate them?" Lin Kuang asked with a smile after a moment’s thought.

"No, that’s not it. I’m calling to warn you to be careful. These people are insidious, and if they do manage to succeed, I’m afraid the consequences would be severe," Chen Feng said gravely.

Lin Kuang nodded. "Alright, I understand. Keep an eye on things for me. I might make a trip to the Island Country in the next few days."

"Yes, Mr. King of the Underworld. However, I wouldn’t advise you to go. Your strength has already reached the Skyline realm, making you practically invincible in the secular world. However, it’s very likely that Yamata no Orochi has experts at the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top level! Of course, I can confirm they have no masters at the Five Energies Towards The Origin level," Chen Feng added earnestly.

"Alright, I get it. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything foolish," Lin Kuang said with a laugh.

"Good. Let’s leave it at that for now, Mr. King of the Underworld. I’ll notify you immediately if anything comes up," Chen Feng said.

Lin Kuang agreed, and the two hung up.

"Yamata no Orochi... a Demon Sect organization... Just you wait. I will be paying you a visit," Lin Kuang said, his voice icy as he stared at the rising sun outside the window. "You dared to touch my women? You’re all courting death!"

He didn’t care if people targeted him, but he would absolutely not tolerate them going after his women. A trip to the Island Country was now a certainty. He just had to wait, until Yang Ruoxi had fully recovered.
