Chapter 562: Chapter 561: The Flayed Woman

Yusuf Zuck arrived in Hong Kong with the four eccentrics the next morning, and they were received by Grey Petty.

They went straight to the hospital because Sophia was there. Although she had passed the critical stage, she was incredibly weak.

Her lungs had been punctured, and had it not been for timely rescue, she would have been dead.

Upon entering the hospital, Yusuf Zuck ordered the four eccentrics to guard the outside of the ward, allowing no one else to enter.

He was now using the four eccentrics as his muscle, and since they needed something from him, he might as well make use of them.

Many people had arrived at the hospital, including Sara Zuck who was in the corridor. Sophia was shot while trying to save her, and though it was dangerous for her to be at the hospital during this period, she stubbornly brought a large group of people with her anyway.

In the ward, Sophia was dressed in a hospital gown and appeared extremely weak. However, when she saw Yusuf Zuck enter, she blinked at him.

Yusuf Zuck first used his telekinesis to carefully examine Sophia’s body, discovering that aside from the gunshot wound, there were no other illnesses and the surgery had been successful.

"Sophia, thank you. I’ll treat you again to make you recover quickly," said Yusuf Zuck as he sat by the bed.

"No need," Sophia said weakly. "With Goldie here, I can’t die. Don’t forget I have the Golden Cicada Gu in my body."

"Still, we should make you better quickly," said Yusuf Zuck, who didn’t take no for an answer and stuffed his finger into her mouth while holding her chin.

However, just as he placed his finger inside, it felt like something bit him. Upon checking with his telekinesis, he found that it was a Big Golden Cicada that had bitten his finger and had drunk all of his purple droplet!

"Damn," Yusuf Zuck cursed as he jumped up.

"Giggle," Sophia laughed, but then she started coughing violently after two chuckles.

"Don’t laugh, don’t laugh, what the hell is this creature doing?" Yusuf Zuck said with a mixture of laughter and tears.

"It likes your purple droplet. It can help it grow. I’m fine, its growth is a good thing," Sophia said with a smile.

"Then I’ll treat you again tomorrow; I can only give one droplet a day," Yusuf Zuck said helplessly. He knew that the Golden Cicada was Sophia’s life Gu, and as long as it was alive, Sophia probably couldn’t die.

"Okay," Sophia agreed readily.

"Then I’m going to leave for now. You rest here for the day, and we’ll go home tomorrow," Yusuf Zuck said as he patted her hand.

"Mhm," Sophia nodded obediently.

As Yusuf Zuck left the ward, the four eccentrics stretched their necks to look inside, questioning why the young man, who was supposed to be a Divine Doctor, hadn’t healed the girl who still lay in bed.

"One of you stay here, the rest can go back. Sophia will get better by tomorrow. Grey, you stay here!" Yusuf Zuck signaled everyone to go home. After going down, he directly got into Sara Zuck’s nanny van and asked about the situation with Mia Escobar.

Sara Zuck recounted in detail the interaction with the Escobar couple from the previous night.

Yusuf Zuck also checked Sara Zuck thoroughly but found everything to be normal, which meant that the other party hadn’t poisoned her or anything.

"Did Rene Benson seem ill?" Yusuf Zuck asked further.

"It seemed like she was unwell, but I couldn’t tell," Sara Zuck replied with a shake of her head.

"I see," Yusuf Zuck frowned and thought for a moment but couldn’t figure out the reason.

If the other side was really ill, then they indeed needed him, and it meant that last night, they basically saved Sara Zuck.

After returning to the villa, Yusuf Zuck immediately called Mia Escobar, "I’m with Sara Zuck here. Come on over." He wanted to see if the other side dared to come.

"All right, we’ll arrive within an hour," Mia Escobar agreed promptly.

Approximately fifty minutes, not quite an hour had passed, when the security outside informed Yusuf Zuck through the intercom that two people had arrived, a man and a woman.

Yusuf Zuck had already seen them; indeed, it was a man and a woman. The man was dressed in a white suit and the woman in a white robe that covered everything below her neck, leaving only her head exposed. Like visiting guests, they politely greeted the security guard at the gate.

"A master!" exclaimed Danny Hart, one of the four odd people, suddenly standing up.

"Innate mid-stage, damn!" Kenelm Lopez’s eyes flashed intensely.

"That woman is sick!" scoffed Kameron Hood, curling her lips.

"How can you tell?" Yusuf Zuck curiously turned to Kameron Hood.

Kameron Hood smiled: "I saw the deathly aura atop her head."

"Hmm, don’t act rashly. We haven’t yet determined if these people are friends or foes, and indeed the woman is sick!" Yusuf Zuck got up and went out to greet them.

Mia Escobar and Rene Benson had already reached the front door of the villa, and Yusuf Zuck, accompanied by Sara Zuck, went out to meet them.

"Mr. Zuck, hello, I’m Mia Escobar, and this is my wife, Rene Benson. Miss Zuck, we meet again." Mia Escobar bowed slightly.

"Mr. Escobar, Sister Benson, hello, please come inside," Sara Zuck said politely.

"Please come in," Yusuf Zuck also said with a nod and a smile.

Mia Escobar seemed not at all intimidated, and Rene Benson carried herself with an air of elegance.

Once they entered the room, both of them were stunned for a moment, as they saw the four odd people.

"Predecessor Danny Black, Predecessor Kenelm, Predecessor Lee, Predecessor Liu, hello!" Mia Escobar surprisingly knew them.

"What?" All four odd people jumped up at once. This young man was only in his twenties, right? How did he recognize them?

"How do you know us?" Danny Hart asked with a cold face. It had been so many years since they had left the martial world; how could this person recognize them at first glance?

"He is involved with intelligence in Heaven. It’s not strange that he knows you. Sit down, everyone." Yusuf Zuck waved his hand dismissively. Mia Escobar had said before he was a secret agent for Heaven, so obviously, he had access to many secrets.

"Heaven again, huh!" The four odd people grunted in anger but sat down.

"I’m no longer with them. I’ve repented. Predecessors, please don’t despise me, I haven’t done many bad things!" Mia Escobar said with a face full of distress.

"Alright, you two come upstairs with me." Yusuf Zuck thought for a moment. He had used telekinesis to see that Rene Benson was indeed seriously ill, terribly so!

Mia Escobar and Rene Benson gave a slight bow to the four odd people and then followed Yusuf Zuck upstairs.

There was a large study upstairs. After the three of them entered, Yusuf Zuck frowned and said, "I’ve seen Miss Benson’s illness. You are indeed extraordinary, Miss Benson; you have suffered greatly!" Yusuf Zuck unexpectedly made a fist-and-palm salute to Rene Benson!

"You saw it?" Both Mia Escobar and Rene Benson said excitedly.

"Skin is gone, how could I not see it?" Yusuf Zuck forced a smile and said, "Who could be so vicious as to flay her skin?" In his telekinetic vision, he saw that from below Rene Benson’s neck down to her toes, the entire outer layer of skin had been removed. He wondered what medicine she used to maintain herself, as her body was festering, and also, he saw that the blood inside her body was diminishing every second—not bleeding, but somehow reducing, very mysteriously, as if something concealed within her was drinking her blood!

"Mr. Zuck, I beg you to save my wife, you are the Divine Doctor!" Mia Escobar’s eyes suddenly reddened, knowing too well the pain his wife was enduring!

"I can’t do anything today; I’m out of medicine. Let’s wait until tomorrow. I can treat her then. But stay here for now; Miss Benson, I admire you. Also, I’d like to know, is Miss Benson’s illness related to Heaven?" Yusuf Zuck asked.

"Yes." Mia Escobar nodded and said, "It was the work of the Great Elder, with whom I have an irreconcilable vendetta!"
