295: Chapter 296: Death is Imminent!

(Five More) 295: Chapter 296: Death is Imminent!

(Five More) The person who arrived was Xia Yuqing.

After asking around, she went to Laiya International to look for Tang Zhong, but no one knew where he was.

She ran into Wu Xiaoyu, who told her he was here, so she came over.

When Tang Zhong saw Xia Yuqing, he was stunned for a moment, then he immediately said, “Why are you here?”

“Of course, I came to find you!” Xia Yuqing put on a serious face, and then gave Tang Zhong a meaningful look.

Tang Zhong understood, and said to Xin Xiaotong and Wu Xiaoyu, “You go first, I have some matters to deal with!”

Wu Xiaoyu and Xin Xiaotong exchanged a glance and then tactfully walked away.

Only after the two had gone far away did Tang Zhong turn to Xia Yuqing and say, “What’s the urgent matter that made you come to me in person?”

“The leader sent me to ask if you remember how we came across that mysterious waterfall in the Forest of Death last time,” Xia Yuqing inquired.

“I don’t remember.

Last time, I was rescuing you and didn’t take a good look,” Tang Zhong replied.

“Alright then!” Xia Yuqing said.

“Is that all the leader asked you to inquire about?”

“Yes!” Xia Yuqing nodded.

“Wouldn’t a phone call have done the job?” Tang Zhong said.

“No, this is highly confidential.

Phone calls are not secure, so it is most appropriate to convey the message in person,” Xia Yuqing explained.

Highly confidential…

Tang Zhong’s eyes narrowed.

Indeed, the waterfall held something truly miraculous inside, as it could directly connect Lanting Continent to Kunlun.

“So what now?” Tang Zhong asked.

“Well, I have a day off from the leader, so I just came to check on you.

I’ll have to leave in a while!” Xia Yuqing said.

“I see!” Tang Zhong said.

“By the way, why haven’t you called off the engagement yet?

Where’s Jiang Weiwei?” Xia Yuqing said, “Isn’t she your CEO?

I think your CEO is quite pretty!”

“It’s not her, just a namesake!” Tang Zhong said.

If it were indeed his boss, then calling off the engagement would be even simpler.

The reason he took this marriage arrangement so seriously was that it was one his grandfather had made for him.

If he didn’t take it seriously, his grandfather’s spirit in heaven would not let him off the hook.

“I see.

I really wish you could return soon!” Xia Yuqing said.

“By the way, there’s something I must remind you of—spies and secret agents have already entered Xuan Country to investigate the Origin Stone!”

“The Origin Stone, that mysterious stone imbued with thunderous power?” Tang Zhong asked.

“Yes, nowadays, not only our Xuan Country but other nations have also begun investigating the existence of the Origin Stone.

It’s a very complicated matter.

Let’s discuss it after you’ve finished calling off your engagement,” Xia Yuqing said.

“Alright!” Tang Zhong nodded.

“If you really can’t find a way, it’s okay to go home, your family always knows!” Xia Yuqing said.

“No need.

I swear I won’t go back again!” Tang Zhong said resolutely.

“Hey, forget it.

Although the Tang Family wronged your parents, you don’t have to be like this.

After all, your family’s ancestral grounds are there; that’s your root,” Xia Yuqing said.

“Enough, let’s not talk about this anymore!” Tang Zhong waved off the subject.

“Alright, you never liked talking about this anyway!” Xia Yuqing said.

Suddenly, Xia Yuqing’s phone rang.

She answered, and her expression turned gloomy.

After hanging up, she said to Tang Zhong, “Alright, something has come up at the base, I have to go back.

Be careful!”

“Don’t worry.

Once I’ve finished calling off the engagement, I will return!” Tang Zhong said.

“Goodbye!” Xia Yuqing turned and left, looking very hurried.

It quickly disappeared.

Meanwhile, Tang Zhong turned to head back home.

Xin Xiaotong and Wu Xiaoyu had already left, and as Tang Zhong mounted his motorcycle, ready to leave, a surge of heat within him erupted.

The previous wrenching pain intensified, heating up his entire skin.

Steam rose gradually as if his body had been filled with magma.

Tang Zhong endured the pain and rode his motorcycle, preparing to go home.

Then he swayed unsteadily forward.

On the road.

Tang Zhong rode his motorcycle, barely able to grasp the handles.

Blood, the color of red, trickled from his nostrils, and he could only see a haze before his eyes.

His grip unsteady, the motorcycle tipped onto the ground in an instant.

He felt as if his body were no longer his own, like a flame, and in the next second, his blood might burst forth from within him.

The scene before his eyes blurred, and the ringing in his ears, incessant, was like trucks honking madly by his side.

Death…

Was it really this quick?

Tang Zhong thought to himself.

But at that moment, a voice carried through.

“You…

What’s wrong with you, sir?”

But the next second, a scream followed: “Tang Zhong, is that you?”

It was Jiang Weiwei’s voice.

Originally, Jiang Weiwei was driving to a party when she saw someone fall off their motorcycle not far ahead.

Seeing the deserted surroundings, she prepared to help, but did not expect that the person was Tang Zhong.

She quickly went to support him.

But when she touched Tang Zhong, she immediately retracted her hand.

“Your body, why is it so hot?” Jiang Weiwei said urgently.

Seeing the blood flowing from Tang Zhong’s nostrils, she could not bear to keep watching.

Ignoring the heat emanating from his body, she pulled Tang Zhong into the car.

Using all her strength, she finally hauled him in.

“Don’t worry, I’m taking you to the doctor right now!” Jiang Weiwei grew more anxious, quickly driving towards the hospital.

At this time, Tang Zhong had no idea what he was doing; he only knew that he was about to die.

Jiang Weiwei pushed the car to 200 km/h, honking the horn while driving and running several red lights.

She kept glancing at Tang Zhong and, seeing his red skin, began to scream even louder: “Tang Zhong, wake up, don’t fall asleep!”

Falling asleep meant death.

Tang Zhong himself was unclear about what was happening.

He felt as though he was in a sea of fire, the flames baking his body, causing excruciating pain.

It was as if the flames were ready to consume him, and no matter how he tried to avoid them, it was futile.

Seeing Tang Zhong motionless, Jiang Weiwei drove with one hand and checked his philtrum with the other: “You…

wake up for me, stop sleeping!”

She tapped on Tang Zhong’s philtrum.

In that instant, the Phoenix Jade Pendant on her chest suddenly emitted a light, but with the urgent driving, Jiang Weiwei did not notice.

At that moment, Tang Zhong still felt as if he were in the sea of fire from before, with flames about to engulf him completely.

If the flames were to crush down on him, he would truly die.

But just then, unexpectedly, a beam of blue light flew in from somewhere.

As soon as the light appeared, the flames surrounding Tang Zhong retreated like tamed beasts, gradually dissipating.

Everything was truly miraculous!
