House Yu’s Conversation

“Lin Yi, if I don’t kill you, then what would House Yu be? Leader of the noble houses? Dog shit!” Shuixing said hatefully after a deep breath. But even he understood that he had to hold it in House Yu couldn’t suffer yet another blow at this point. He had to endure it before he understood Lin Yi’s background!

In the study, a sudden phone call range. It was the secret phone number of House Yu, and so only close associates knew the number- other than the insiders of House Yu, only the heads of the other big houses knew it!

“Hello, it’s Yu Shuixnig!” Shuixing picked up, his thoughts interrupted.

“It’s your big brother, Shuixing!” Dansen was quite happy. Now that he was breaking through, he naturally had to share the news with his second brother and third brother. “Bide’s with you, right?”

“Brother!” Shuixing’s helplessness and rage burst out all that instant when he heard his brother’s voice, but felt a different emotion when his brother asked about Bide. “Bide… He’s… He’s not here…”

“Oh, go get him then, I have good news! This is big news for House Yu!” Dansen didn’t notice anything wrong with Shuixing’s emotions. They were on a phone call, after all, he couldn’t see Shuixing’s expressions.

“I… I can’t… get him anymore…” Shuixing sighed, his voice quivering and bordering on crying. “Brother- Bide… He’s… He’s dead!”

“Dead? What do you mean?” Dansen paused, not understanding. “What do you mean, dead? Who’s dead?”

“Yu Bide, our third brother—he’s dead!” Shuixing said sorrowfully. “Brother, Bide’s dead, he died so horribly!”

“What! What did you say? Bide’s dead? How did he die?!” Dansen’s brain froze—he didn’t think that Bide would die, what on earth was this? He hadn’t left House Yu for that long!

And Bide himself was a practitioner with no sickness… How did he die?

“He got injured, and in the end killed by a dog!” Shuixing roared. “He died so horribly, big brother! You have to avenge him!”

“What did you say? A dog killed him? Shuixing, are you alright? It’s not Apri Fool’s, is it?” Dansen froze. “Your brother’s a mystic early phase, even if he’s hurt, a dog couldn’t kill him! Plus, with the position and influence us Yu’s have, who’d dare touch us?”

“Brother, why would I joke about this? Not only is third brother dead, but Yu Kun’s also crippled as well!” Shuixing said. “Brother—someone arrived in the common world, a mysterious master called Lin Yi… He doesn’t follow the rules at all, arrogantly doing whatever he wants without any consideration…”

“Lin Yi? I’ve never heard of him! What happened, tell me in detail!” Dansen believed Shuixing at this point. Even Yu Kun was crippled, it looked like things were serious! Dansen’s happy mood was all washed away in that instant.

“Brother… Here’s what happened…” Shuixing didn’t hold anything back, and he started from when they auctioned the map, telling everything to Dansen in detail. After all, using the piece of the map to attract people who knew about it was a plan he made with his brother, it wasn’t SHUixing’s fault!

Dansen was silent as he listened to the tale. He never would have thought that a common businessman would have a master like this by his side, and the most frustrating part was that he’d never heard of someone like this! From what Shuixing was saying, this man was strong beyond belief!

“With injuries that heavy, he’s able to so quickly repair himself… And turning a dog at death’s door into a golden class practitioner dog…” Dansen couldn’t help but sigh. ” I’m not trying to put our family down, but strength like this—even our hidden House Yu doesn’t have that! Anyone hurt in House Yu wouldn’t be able to become a master in such short a time, let alone a dog turning into practitioner! If that dog was the one who dealt the killing blow, it had to at least be a golden class!”

“That’s right, brother! That’s why I’m holding back. As a Mystic late phase, it’d be easy for me to kill the kid, but I can’t! Who knows what kind of terrible force is backing him up? I’m worried it’d bring big misfortune to House Yu!” Shuixing said.

“Good thing you held down your impulse. The consequences otherwise would be unthinkable.” Dansen sighed.

“Brother, then what should we do now? Do we just let it go? Can you ask the hidden Yu’s to avenge us?” Shuixing couldn’t help but fall into despair upon the words.

“You know this too—I’ve just arrived at this House Yu, and my position is still low. I can’t reach the core of the family yet, and here, there are plenty of Earth class early phase practitioners… I’m just one of them…” Dansen sighed. “What you can do now is try and figure out Lin Yi’s background, because even if House Yu were to make a move for us, they’d need to know his background… Otherwise, they wouldn’t just make a careless move…”

“Looks like that’s the only way now…” Shuixing was a little disappointed. He wanted his brother to avenge House Yu, but from his tone, it seemed like it was still impossible!

“Shuixing, be composed! Remember, as long as we have our revenge, even waiting ten years is nothing!” Dansen said. “I’m not here wasting my time, either. Earth class masters can’t enter the common world easily, but if there’s an important reason I’ll be able to apply for a leave! After you learn about his background, and if we’re able to take on whatever’s backing him up, I’ll make the application!”

“Alright! I’ll send Lil’ Feng to Songshan now and investigate Lin Yi. We can’t just let this go!” Shuixing said, determination flooding him. If his brother were to get involved, Lin Yi would be dead for sure. The problem now was—just what type of superpower was backing Lin Yi?

Dansen sighed. “Alright. All men must die. We will move on!” Dansen was a lot more accepting than Shuixing. “Practitioners who aren’t aiming for the Sky class will eventually die, like any other man.”

“I understand!” Shuixing nodded. “Right, brother, what did you call for?”
