Chapter 368: Chapter 368: Sheng Siyuan, You Cannot Escape the Palm of My Hand

When Xiahou Jingmu arrived at the mental hospital with his men,

Sheng Siyuan had not yet left.

He kicked open the door of the ward and saw Yin Hehe and this man inside.

"Husband!" Yin Hehe saw him, and immediately turned deathly pale, clutching Sheng Siyuan’s arm.

Seeing this, Xiahou Jingmu burst into a proud and scornful laugh.

"I thought you had run away, but it turns out, that’s all the ability you have," he said, stepping inside and jeering at the man.

Hearing this, Yin Hehe didn’t wait for Sheng Siyuan to speak, and she frantically yet assertively charged forward.

"Xiahou Jingmu, what exactly do you want to do? This is the Imperial Capital, do you really intend to unleash a massacre?"

She challenged him furiously.

At her words, Xiahou Jingmu looked at her, and something contorted in his eyes, his expression suddenly became terrifyingly grim.

"When did I ever say I would unleash a massacre? The only thing I’ve wanted from start to finish is his life!"

He pointed at Sheng Siyuan and stated.

This was the first time he had ever spoken of his intentions so plainly.

Yin Hehe trembled with rage and spat out, "What has he done to you? Why must you kill him?"

"Because he also bears the name Xiahou!" Xiahou Jingmu roared furiously again.

"Yin Hehe, do you still not understand? As long as they, father and son, exist, I will never be able to sit securely on my throne. That’s why, making them disappear from this world is my goal tonight!"

"..."

No more sounds followed.

When these words came out of his mouth, the whole ward plunged into an abyss of fear, and Yin Hehe’s face was drained of all color.

Because she heard the words "father and son."

So, had Xiahou Yi also fallen into his hands?

Yin Hehe was in utter despair.

"Heh heh~~" But at that moment, the man beside her suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"You want me dead? Don’t you think you’re a bit delusional?"

He stood there like a specter, his voice dripping with mockery, and in an instant, everyone heard a clicking sound.

"No good! There’s a timed bomb!"

In an instant, the people there, who dealt with weapons regularly, recognized the sound, and their faces drastically changed. They turned around and ran out of the ward.

Xiahou Jingmu’s complexion changed too!

"Sheng Siyuan, you’ve got guts!" His eyes bloodshot, he stared at the man and cursed, racing back toward the ward.

The man behind simply shrugged his shoulders, about to seize the woman next to him and jump out of the window with her.

But just then, Xiahou Jingmu, who was at the doorway, suddenly fired a shot.

"Bang!"

The man, who was rushing towards the window with Yin Hehe, stumbled, and when he looked down, he saw a blossom of blood exploding across his chest.

"No, don’t..."

Yin Hehe saw it too, and instantly, her complexion became as pale as her husband’s, her hand desperately covering the man’s wound.

But it was useless.

The blood from the wound gushed like a sprung fountain, her fingers utterly unable to contain it, the warm liquid shooting through the gaps in her fingers. In no time at all, she was covered in blood too.

"No, husband, please, no, I beg you, don’t..."

She had completely lost her reason, crying, pleading, trembling... hoping that this might end the ordeal.

But...

"Thud!"

Sheng Siyuan fell to the ground.

Just like before in the Chongzhou Hotel, as soon as he hit the floor, copious amounts of fresh blood spurted from his mouth.

"Ahh—" Yin Hehe screamed in agony.

Her eyes were bloodshot, as if she had completely lost her mind, and she turned to glare fiercely at Xiahou Jingmu behind her.

"Are you satisfied now? You’ve killed him! Are you finally satisfied? Now, with no one to stop you from ruling and reigning supreme, do you feel content?"

She screamed until she was hoarse, and at that moment, her normally beautiful face looked as if it had been slashed open, her expression was terrifying, filled with hatred...

Like a vengeful ghost crawling out of Hell!

Xiahou Jingmu paused.

In fact, his shot just now wasn’t meant to be fatal; it was because of the panic within him that made his aim go awry.

Now, seeing that the usually calm and composed woman was driven mad by this scene, he felt a twinge of regret.

"Someone, take him out for me!"

He finally shouted from the doorway of the hospital room.

So inside the room, Yin Hehe, driven mad with delirium, only saw people come in and take the man, whose tattoos were covered in blood, away from her.

"Where are you taking him? Give him back to me!"

She chased after them like a lunatic.

A few minutes later, just as Xiahou Jingmu was leaving the hospital, a massive explosion boomed from behind him, and the hospital was finally blown up, a huge flame soaring into the sky, casting the city in a crimson hue.

This war had, at last, begun.

Half an hour later, Xiahou Jingmu, holding a bloodstained bullet and a bloodied Royal Seal, picked up his cell phone with an ashen face to make a call.

"The two people you wanted, I’ve taken care of that for you. When are you going to release my parents?"

"Is that so?"

A voice quickly came through the phone.

The voice, old and carrying a sense of weariness and a sinister touch, said,

"A blood-stained garment, a bullet, and you say you’ve done as I asked, Xiahou Jingmu. Do you remember what I demanded? I told you, I want their lives—the lives of the father and son!"

With just that simple sentence, the color drained even further from Xiahou Jingmu’s face.

"Rest assured, Sheng Siyuan has been shot by me; even if he doesn’t die, he’ll never wake up again in this lifetime. And Xiahou Yi is already a cripple; what difference does it make whether he’s dead when I have his seal?"

He clenched his teeth hard, enduring for a long time before he could reply.

Hearing this, the person on the phone—perhaps seeing that his patience was at its limit, not wishing to push him to desperation—didn’t make things more difficult for him.

"Fine, then bring me both of them!"

"..."

Another long silence followed.

But after the silence, Xiahou Jingmu agreed.

So at dawn’s first light, a black van took the barely bandaged, severely injured and unconscious Sheng Siyuan, as well as Xiahou Yi, bound hand and foot with a cloth stuffed in his mouth, and threw them into the van.

When Yin Hehe woke up in the hospital, everything around was deserted, and she could no longer see anyone...
