Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

Chapter 345 A Heartless and Unfeeling Person

puff!

Wu Qingfeng coughed up a mouthful of blood, both shocked and furious.

"You...you're so cruel!"

He couldn't believe that his loyal patriarch and cousin, who shared the same blood, would actually attack him and try to hand him over to the enemy to make peace!

"I will treat your family well."

Wu Chengze struck out with another palm, completely killing Wu Qingfeng, who had already lost the ability to resist. His face was expressionless, and he looked very indifferent, as if he had killed a stranger.

Zhang Xinglin never expected such a thing to happen.

After a brief moment of shock, he tensed up.

Wu Chengze killed even his own cousins, let alone someone like himself who wasn't related by blood.

He was terrified that Wu Chengze would also kill him and hand him over to the authorities to appease their anger.

Wu Yi'an, however, was not afraid.

He was the most skilled doctor in the Wu family and still had value to him. Based on his understanding of Wu Chengze, he wouldn't kill him, but Wu Chengze's actions today greatly disappointed him.

Such a heartless and ungrateful person is unworthy to be the head of the Wu family.

Seeing this, Wu Yue nodded secretly, praising Wu Chengze for his decisive actions.

"That's not enough!"

Wu Chengze said in a deep voice, "Next, I will resign to take responsibility and step down as head of the Wu family, giving the officials enough face so that their anger can be appeased."

Wu Yue frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Wu Chengze's resignation as head of the Wu family is indeed more conducive to quelling the official anger, but without this position, his status within the clan will likely plummet.

Seemingly sensing his concerns, Wu Chengze said calmly, "I will hand over the Wu family headship to your third uncle, Wu Chengjiang. Your cultivation resources will not be reduced in any way, and your status will not be shaken."

Wu Yue thought for a moment and nodded.

"I hope you can figure it out yourself, Father."

Wu Chengjiang and Wu Chengze were both direct descendants of the Wu family and were brothers born of the same mother. They grew up together and had a very close relationship. They doted on him and were the best to him besides his parents.

Of course, none of this is the most important thing.

Most importantly, Wu Chengjiang's sons all had extremely mediocre martial arts talent. Even if he wanted to help his sons rise to power, he couldn't, and in the end, he would have to support Wu Chengjiang himself.

Moreover, Wu Chengjiang's abilities were inferior to his father's.

If someone has a divided heart, it can be easily eliminated.

Handing the Wu family over to Wu Chengjiang, with his father acting as a de facto ruler behind the scenes, is the best course of action under the current circumstances.

"May the medical profession be well."

Wu Chengze then turned his gaze to the two of them and said coldly, "From now on, I expect you to keep your mouths shut and not tell anyone that Wu Yue has woken up. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to grit my teeth and kill all your immediate family members."

"No, no, please rest assured, Master!"

Zhang Xinglin quickly bowed and said, already hesitating whether or not to tell Chen Huo the news.

Wu Chengze's purpose was clear.

The goal was simply to let Wu Yue grow up in a low-key manner, and also to make the authorities think that they were compromising under pressure. This would save face for the authorities and reduce their attention to the Wu family.

Wu Yi'an sighed softly and said meaningfully, "Patriarch, don't forget that I am also a member of the Wu family."

Wu Chengze had no time to ponder the deeper meaning in Wu Yi'an's words, nor did he care. All he wanted was an attitude, to make the two realize the consequences of leaking information. He only had his son in his eyes.

"You'll have to keep pretending to be unconscious for a while longer."

"I understand, Father."

Wu Yue nodded, agreeing with Wu Chengze's arrangement.

In a one-on-one fight, he is no match for Chen Huo. The Wu family is currently in turmoil, and revenge is a dish best served cold. His best strategy right now is to develop his strength in a low-key manner.

……

The next morning.

Just as dawn broke, Chen Huo was awakened by his cell phone ringing.

"Who is it? So annoying so early in the morning!"

Gu Yingxue mumbled something, turned over, and continued sleeping.

Chen Huo slapped her shapely buttocks and laughed, "Alright, it's already dawn. Time to get up and cultivate. Hurry up and consolidate your cultivation level."

The night before last, Chen Huo originally intended to give her a Body Tempering Pill to help her refine and absorb it, thereby enhancing her physical strength and helping her break through to the second level of the Emperor Realm. However, he ended up getting carried away and having a great time.

Chen Huo contacted her again last night.

But the important thing to do first is to get to the point.

After Gu Yingxue successfully broke through her cultivation level, the two began to have an in-depth exchange.

After two consecutive nights of exhaustion, Gu Yingxue went to sleep without even having time to stabilize her cultivation level, so it's understandable that she's feeling tired now.

"Um!"

Gu Yingxue let out a soft groan, instantly losing all sleepiness.

He turned around, his eyes gleaming with desire as he looked at Chen Huo, and began to tamper with him.

Both men and women are most passionate and easily aroused when they first taste forbidden fruit, especially someone with astonishing fighting power like Chen Huo, who can make women unable to resist.

Chen Huo picked up his phone and glanced at it. Seeing that it was Yuan Gang calling, he gently slapped Gu Yingxue's restless hand, sat up straight, and answered the call.

"Haha, Brother Chen, great news! The Wu family has backed down, and the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower will soon be in our hands!" Even over the phone, Chen Huo could feel Yuan Gang's joy.

"Oh, what's going on?" Chen Huolue was somewhat surprised.

"Wu Chengze called me late last night..."

Yuan Gang briefly recounted the whole story.

Chen Huo frowned upon hearing this.

Wu Chengze actually backed down.

He handed over the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower, delivered the corpse of the robber Wu Qingfeng, surrendered all his worldly assets, and even resigned from his position as head of the Wu family, all to appease the authorities' anger.

They're not going to save their son?

This is quite different from Wu Chengze's previous style of doing things at all costs for his son. Chen Huo felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yuan Gang guessed what he was thinking and snorted:

"We've deployed a large number of people to monitor the Wu family's base, closed off all surrounding roads, investigated the Wu family's businesses in the secular world, and even sent experts to the Wu family to demand answers. They have no choice but to be fearless!"

When Yuan Gang said this, he couldn't hide his arrogance. This confidence came from the powerful state apparatus, as if he felt that things should be this way.

Chen Huo dispelled his doubts and stopped thinking about it, then changed the subject, asking, "Has the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower reached your hands?"

"Not yet, but soon. We've already sent experts to contact Wu Chengze, and we should have it by noon. We'll send a military helicopter to deliver it then. This time, we guarantee there won't be any problems!"

Chen Huo nodded secretly upon hearing this; Yuan Gang's arrangement was quite appropriate.

Having learned from the last experience, there shouldn't be any problems this time.

"What do you plan to do with the Wu family?" Chen Huo asked.

"It's not confirmed yet, but it'll probably be over. There's nothing we can do; that old man from the Wu family is still around, and now is not the time to fight them head-on," Yuan Gang said with a hint of resentment.
