Chapter 1992 - 1965: Layers of Mist
When the people waiting in the lobby saw Lu Tianxing burst in with Qiu Tianrui, covered in blood, they were all startled and instinctively wanted to move away.
Lu Tianxing ignored their reactions and shouted loudly, "Where’s the doctor? Where’s the doctor? Hurry, get the doctor."
Lu Tianxing’s voice, infused with a trace of True Qi, exploded in the hospital like a thunderclap, causing a piercing ache in everyone’s eardrums.
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s shout and seeing the blood-drenched, critically injured Qiu Tianrui, a nearby nurse didn’t hesitate and immediately prepared a stretcher.
Within moments, the stretcher was ready. The nurse pushed Qiu Tianrui and, together with a doctor, rushed up to the third-floor operating room by elevator.
Watching Qiu Tianrui being sent to the operating room, Lu Tianxing instantly grabbed the white coat of a chief surgeon nearby and said fiercely, "No matter what method you use, save him. Otherwise, I’ll bury you with him."
With these words, a terrifying killing intent instantly radiated from Lu Tianxing, spreading outwards.
The temperature in the entire corridor plummeted to the extreme, as if winter had suddenly arrived, with water freezing instantly.
"I... I’ll do my best," the doctor said, trembling with fear as he looked at Lu Tianxing.
"Not do your best, but your utmost. If you save him, I guarantee that on this Qin Island, you’ll never want for anything again in your life."
Lu Tianxing took a deep breath and slowly released the doctor’s white coat.
After Lu Tianxing let go, the doctor hurriedly rushed into the operating room without any delay.
The next moment, the red light of the operating room lit up immediately.
In the operating room, Qiu Tianrui’s shirt had been completely removed, and he lay bare-chested on the operating table with a ghastly wound on his chest. Perhaps his last movement had saved him from a lethal blow straight through the heart.
Even so, Qiu Tianrui’s condition remained dire, clinging to life, already half a foot through the Ghost Gate.
Seeing Qiu Tianrui’s state, the chief surgeon took a deep breath, suppressing his earlier trepidation, and began issuing orders methodically. The entire operating room quickly fell into a flurry of activity, with doctors and nurses each performing their roles.
"Forceps, hemostats, blood pressure index... "
The cold commands echoed repeatedly in the operating room as it plunged into a state of urgency.
Outside the operating room, Lu Tianxing looked glacial, his overwhelming killing intent lingering and intensifying.
Who exactly tried to kill Qiu Tianrui this time, and why? Killing Wei Xu might spread rumors, making him an enemy of many families, but killing Qiu Tianrui had no impact on him. So why did they do it?
Lu Tianxing couldn’t figure it out, nor could he guess their motives.
This time, deploying Death Soldiers again; the opponent’s forces were definitely not ordinary. But who could it be?
Was it the Heavenly God, or the Tang Family, or perhaps people from the Yang Family?
Lu Tianxing couldn’t guess; all three forces had the capability to plot against him and motives to eliminate him.
At this moment, Lu Tianxing’s mind was in chaos, wondering who was behind all this, who was scheming against him, and for what purpose. Was it merely to leave him friendless, an enemy of the world?
Lu Tianxing couldn’t fathom why they would do this.
But he knew he’d been caught in another massive conspiracy. If he couldn’t extricate himself from this whirlpool, it might tear him apart.
"Better hope I don’t find out who you are, or I won’t mind tearing you to pieces."
Lu Tianxing’s eyes flashed coldly, the chill around him becoming even more intense.
Meanwhile, in the operating room, the doctor looked at Qiu Tianrui’s wound that pierced through his chest, unable to control a flicker of shock on his face. The injury was so severe, yet Qiu Tianrui still clung to life, an astonishing testament to his vitality.
Despite Qiu Tianrui hanging on, his breath was faint, with his heartbeat slowing dangerously, as if it might stop at any moment.
This realization made everyone in the operating room’s faces involuntarily change, the clear signal that the patient might die at any moment.
"Prepare for cardiac resuscitation," the chief surgeon ordered without hesitation.
With his command, the operating room plunged into hectic activity once more.
Outside the operating room, Lu Tianxing stood up from his chair, pacing back and forth, an uncontrollable anxiety etched on his face, unable to calm down.
"The most romantic thing I can think of is growing old with you... "
Just then, Lu Tianxing’s phone suddenly rang.
Lu Tianxing glanced at the caller ID, adjusted his mood, and answered the call, "Grandfather... "
"I just heard from Zhiqing that you left the house in a hurry. What happened?"
Jiang Liufeng’s old yet strong voice came through the phone.
"This morning, Qiu Tianrui called to say Wei Xu was dead, found by a maid in his apartment. Rumors outside say I killed Wei Xu, to scare everyone into submission, trying to restore the Lu Family’s glory and make the Huaxia Martial World our domain... "
Lu Tianxing briefly explained and continued, "So I arranged to meet Qiu Tianrui at the Taoyuan Restaurant. Just ten minutes ago, the murderer reappeared and severely injured Qiu Tianrui. I’ve brought him to the hospital, and he’s in surgery now."
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Jiang Liufeng didn’t speak immediately but frowned slightly. From what Lu Tianxing recounted, he heard a heavy scent of conspiracy, with both Wei Xu’s death and the attack on Qiu Tianrui being parts of a plot against Lu Tianxing.
However, he couldn’t guess why the opponent would do this, but Jiang Liufeng was sure that if Qiu Tianrui really died this time, then the plan would be terrifyingly effective, possibly toppling the Lu Family completely.
