"Hmm!?" Ling Hao trembled all over and couldn't help but stop in his tracks upon hearing Ruirui's voice. "Xiaoli, what's the situation?" Lei Hongkun's voice came from the other end of the phone, his right eyelid twitching wildly. "Dad... save me..." Lei Yunli shouted into the phone, "He... he's going to kill me..." "Hand the phone to him!" Lei Hongkun exhaled a breath of turbid air before speaking. "Okay... okay..." Lei Yunli quickly nodded and handed the phone to Ling Hao, "Your... your daughter wants to talk to you..." Whew! Ling Hao took a deep breath before taking the phone and looking over. "Kid, if you dare to touch Xiaoli, then don't even think about seeing your daughter again!" Lei Hongkun finished speaking and pointed the camera at Ruirui. Smack! Then, with a slap, he struck Ruirui across the face, immediately leaving a clear palm print. "You little bastard, you were thinking of your daddy, weren't you? Say hello to your daddy!" Lei Hongkun spoke coldly. Boom! Upon seeing this, a violent and boundless killing intent erupted from Ling Hao, instantly filling the entire hall, his eyes shimmering with endless frost. Lei Yunli, standing in front of him, collapsed to the ground with a softened stance. "Daddy... Ruirui finally sees you... you really are my daddy..." Ruirui cried out upon seeing Ling Hao. "Daddy... Ruirui is so scared... when are you coming to save me..." "Ruirui, don't be afraid..." Ling Hao struggled to speak a few words before choking up, tears uncontrollably streaming down his face. "Daddy... don't cry... you are a great hero... mommy said great heroes never cry..." Ruirui continued to cry out. "Okay, daddy promises you, daddy won't cry!" Ling Hao forcibly steadied his emotions, "Don't be afraid, Ruirui, daddy promises you, I'll bring you home soon!" "Yeah... Ruirui believes daddy... daddy will surely take Ruirui home..." Smack! Before Ruirui could finish speaking, Lei Hongkun slapped her again, causing her little face to swell up instantly. "Ah..." Ruirui screamed, her small body trembling uncontrollably. "If you dare hurt Ruirui again, I will kill your son and daughter right now!" Ling Hao was on the verge of blind rage, his eyes bloodshot. "Is that so?" Lei Hongkun snorted coldly. Next, he took a dagger from beside him and flashed it in front of Ruirui's eyes, "You can try!" "Wah..." Ruirui cried out in fear, "Daddy... I'm so scared... please come save me... I'm really scared..." Smack! The sound of a slap echoed again. "You little bastard, shut your mouth, it's killing me! If you cry again, I'll cut out your tongue!" "Whimper..." Ruirui, terrified, trembled all over, clamping her mouth shut in fear. Whew! Ling Hao took another deep breath to calm himself down as his anger could only hurt Ruirui. Then, he looked at Lei Hongkun and said word by word, "What do you want?" "You acted so tough just now, have you turned coward so quickly?" Lei Hongkun's tone darkened after speaking. "Let Xiaoli and Xiaoguang go now, or you'll never see your daughter again!" "Do you think that's possible?" Ling Hao was surrounded by a murderous aura. "Hehe, you can choose not to let them go!" Lei Hongkun coldly laughed and then cut Ruirui's arm with the dagger, causing blood to flow. "Ah..." Due to the shock, Ruirui screamed loudly before fainting once again. "I'll give you one minute to think, if you don't release them, prepare to claim your daughter's body!" Lei Hongkun continued to speak coldly. "Ah...." Seeing Ruirui's situation, Ling Hao let out a painful cry to the sky. Pfft! Overwhelmed with emotion, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura becoming extremely chaotic. "General, please take care of your health!" Lu Yue came over with a worried expression, pausing before continuing. "Let them go. We'll go to Lei's mansion later for Ruirui. With so many people in the Lei mansion, Lei Hongkun can't ignore them all!" "Okay!" Ling Hao exhaled heavily, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Lei Hongkun, and said word by word. "I'll wait for you in Lei's mansion. If anything happens to Ruirui, I'll make sure everyone from the Lei family joins her in death!" Crack! Crack! As his words fell, the force in his hand suddenly increased, and the phone turned into a pile of debris falling to the ground. "Can we go now?" Seeing this, Lei Yunli seemed to regain her confidence and asked coldly. "Get out!" Lu Yue shouted with rage. Whoosh! Those lying on the ground scrambled up as if granted amnesty, hastily rising. Two men, limping, helped Lei Xiaoguang up and headed towards the door, with others quickly following. Lei Yunli then glanced at Ling Hao and Lu Yue, "We'll wait for you at the Lei mansion. I hope you won't be a turtle hiding its head!" Bang! Before her words fell, a gust of wind swept out from Ling Hao's palm, directly blowing her out of the main door. After slamming heavily to the ground, Lei Yunli had at least several ribs broken, evidenced by her close contact with the ground. "Ah..." Following a pig-like scream, she fainted. "Miss!" The crowd shouted out immediately, then quickly lifted Lei Yunli into a car. Faced with the grim reapers that were Ling Hao and Lu Yue, these people didn't want to stay for even a second. Meanwhile. Mu Tiejun, the chief in charge of the Yun City war zone, sat pondering in his armchair, enveloped in cigarette smoke. Thud! Thud! Thud! A series of hurried footsteps resounded, and then a burly man rushed into the office without knocking, his face pale as death. "Xu Biao, are you itchy for a beating again? How many times have I told you, knock before you come in!" Mu Tiejun glared at him. "Boss, something big has happened!" Xu Biao went to the side table, grabbed a bottle of mineral water, and gulped it down. "Can't you maintain a little dignity? You're the second-in-command here in Yun City," Mu Tiejun scolded, irked at his lack of composure. "It's really big!" Xu Biao caught his breath before continuing, "I've just received news that nearly a thousand people have gathered in Yun City from all directions!" "Have you lost your mind?" Mu Tiejun glared at him again. "Yun City may not be a big city, but the number of people entering the city through different means is at least in the hundreds of thousands every day." "And now you're telling me it's big news because a thousand people have gathered in Yun City!?" "Boss, why don't you ask who they are, and who's leading them?" Xu Biao continued. "Spit it out!" "Judge!" "Who is the Judge? He..." Mu Tiejun's words were cut off midway as his wrist shook and the cigarette dropped onto the desk. His expression changed drastically, fixating on Xu Biao, "You repeat that!?" "One of the Five Sharp Blades of the Shadow Clan, responsible for the Eastern Region, the Judge!" Xu Biao swallowed hard. "He's brought nearly a thousand members of the Shadow Clan to Yun City!" "Really!?" Mu Tiejun sprang up from his chair, "Is the information accurate?" "Do you think I would joke about this?" "Have you figured out why specifically?" "No!" Xu Biao shook his head. "What about their movements?" Mu Tiejun asked again. Beep! Beep! At that moment, Xu Biao's phone alert sounded, and after checking it, his face changed again. He took a deep breath before looking at Mu Tiejun, "If nothing goes wrong, their destination should be the Lei family!" "Hmm!?" Mu Tiejun frowned, "Did anything special happen at the Lei family recently?" "I'm not sure!" Xu Biao shook his head. Whew! Mu Tiejun exhaled turbid breath and commanded solemnly, "Immediately notify all members of the special combat team to assemble and come with me to the Lei family right away!" He couldn't afford not to be nervous, as the chief in charge of the Yun City war zone, he naturally knew what the Shadow Clan meant! Usually, where the Shadow Clan appears, it means that something is happening. And now, thousands of Shadow Clan disciples have gathered in Yun City! He could tell just by thinking with his toes that it was definitely a big deal, a catastrophe! "Yes!" Xu Biao saluted and turned to leave. Five minutes later. Ten war zone trucks, ten war zone off-road vehicles roared towards the location of the Lei family.
