Chapter 829: The Mangshan Six Ghosts

The bodyguard gave a muffled groan and collapsed to the ground. The little girl's body twitched slightly, then she extended her arm, and her body stretched out.

This was the Bone-Shrinking Technique; even when her body was fully extended, she was less than 1.4 meters tall, and she still wore the face of a five or six-year-old child. The blade in her hand flipped, and she attacked forward.

"Protect President He." A group of bodyguards surged up rapidly, shielding He Lingyun behind them.

But almost at the same time, five children who had been playing in the plaza dropped their toys; their bodies also stretched out, and then, wielding various weapons, they surrounded them.

These assassins were all dwarves; whether male or female, they were proficient in the Bone-Shrinking Technique. With their short statures, they attacked He Lingyun's bodyguards with agile movements.

The bodyguards fell to the ground one after another. In the car, Mu Xi pulled He Lingyun into the vehicle. At the same time, a dwarf struck rapidly. With two *whoosh* sounds, two bloody gashes appeared on Mu Xi's back, and fresh blood flowed out rapidly.

Mu Xi gritted her teeth and shoved the car door hard. With a *bang*, the dwarf was knocked back by them.

"Xixi." He Lingyun pulled Mu Xi into the car. Mu Xi's face was pale, and the blood from her back kept gushing out.

"Sister, go quickly." Mu Xi gritted her teeth.

"Sit tight, I'm driving." He Lingyun quickly started the car and sped forward.

He Lingyun's car was specially armored; unless it was a sniper rifle, the car windows would not sustain much damage.

She slammed on the gas, and the car sped forward rapidly.

While driving, she pressed the emergency assistance button. As long as the button was pressed, the He Family's Dark Guard and the police would receive the news and come to save her immediately.

Mu Xi in the car let out a cry of pain; the wounds on her back had turned blackish-purple. Clearly, the blade that wounded her was poisoned.

"Mu Xi, wake up, you can't sleep. I'm taking you to the hospital right now," He Lingyun shouted.

"Sister, I'm fine." Mu Xi managed a faint smile on her pale face. She had an extremely strong will and was struggling to keep herself conscious.

In a daze, Mu Xi saw a five or six-year-old boy appear in front. This boy had a murderous look on his face, and at the same time, he held a bow that was much taller than his own body.

He nocked an arrow and aimed at the car.

"Watch out..." Mu Xi's eyes widened suddenly.

At the same time she screamed, with a *whoosh*, an arrow struck toward the car, hitting the front windshield directly.

With a *crash*, the car's front windshield shattered suddenly. This glass, which even bullets could not penetrate, had actually been pierced by the opponent's arrow.

He Lingyun jerked the steering wheel. With a *thud*, the arrow struck her left shoulder directly, and the powerful impact almost pinned her to the car seat.

At the same time, the car lost its center of gravity, swerved violently to one side, and then rolled several times, ending up on its side on the ground.

Cars and pedestrians on the road screamed and dodged. A cold smile played on the boy's face; he strode forward, a Dagger appearing in his hand.

Just as he raised the Dagger in his hand, he suddenly felt a wave of murderous intent coming from behind. The boy's reaction was extremely fast; he dodged to one side rapidly. Almost at the same time, with a *boom* of a gunshot, a bullet struck the spot where he had just been standing.

Gelin arrived with his men, his expression tense, firing continuously with the gun in his hand.

The boy rolled several times, dodging the bullets from Gelin's hand, then quickly flipped over and vanished without a trace.

Upon receiving the news, Chen Yu was shocked. He had been drinking with Long Lao, holding a large bowl.

People in the military had straightforward personalities, and that was how their bonds were formed: eating big chunks of meat and drinking from big bowls of alcohol.

Hearing the news that his mother had been attacked and injured, Chen Yu moved his hand. With a *hiss*, the large bowl in his hand turned into a wisp of white vapor and vanished without a trace.

"Chen Yu, what's wrong?" Gu Ping stood up abruptly; he could feel the anger in Chen Yu's heart.

"Long Lao, I'm afraid I have to excuse myself. My mother has been attacked." Chen Yu's tone carried a chilling murderous intent.

"Who did it?" Gu Ping was furious. He regarded Chen Yu as a brother; how could he not be angry that someone dared to make a move on Chen Yu's mother?

"It's still being investigated, but initial reports say the six assassins are the notorious Mangshan Six Ghosts from the underworld. I have to go back now," Chen Yu shouted.

"Gu Ping, take a squad of men and send Martial Artists over. First, get Chen Yu to the hospital, then track down the whereabouts of those six ghosts," Long Lao said coldly. "Six little ghosts, since when have they dared to be so arrogant?"

"Yes, Long Lao," Gu Ping said.

At the Shengjing Military Region Hospital, six armed helicopters roared in. Above the hospital, Chen Yu leaped up from a height of over ten stories.

The one flying the helicopter was Lao Hei; he watched with his mouth wide open as Chen Yu descended in a straight line in mid-air.

With a *boom*, Chen Yu landed on the ground. A huge deep pit was smashed into the spot where he landed, and then he walked toward the hospital as if nothing had happened.

"Lao Hei, we got word. The Six Ghosts are in the north. Block them; I'm sending the coordinates over now," Gu Ping's voice came through the headset.

"Yes, Boss." Lao Hei twisted the control stick, revealing the dark gun barrels beneath the black armed helicopter, and the aircraft roared as it flew toward the north.

In the hospital, Chen Yu saw his mother. He Lingyun's shoulder had been pierced by an arrow, leaving a penetrating wound.

Fortunately, it did not hit any vital organs, so there was no danger to her Life, and the hospital had already performed initial treatment.

However, Mu Xi was more seriously injured. The two knife wounds on her back were deep enough to see bone, and the blades were coated with poison. By the time Chen Yu arrived, she was already in critical condition.

"Xiao Yu, find a way to save Mu Xi. I can't lose her." He Lingyun, who was usually unflappable, had slightly red eyes. Ignoring her own injuries, she grabbed Chen Yu and sobbed softly.

"Mom, go rest first. Mu will be fine." Chen Yu gripped her hand to comfort her, then walked into the operating room.

He chased all the doctors out of the operating room and began to treat Mu Xi's wounds and purge the poison.

The Six Ghosts were born in the Mangshan region, a place full of treacherous terrain. Some areas never saw sunlight all year round, and the location was damp and hot with much rain, so the poison used by the Six Ghosts was extremely sinister.

Chen Yu used many precious treasures before he finally purged the poison from Mu Xi's body. Half an hour later, Mu Xi's vital signs had stabilized, but she had lost too much blood and was still in a coma.

"How is she?" Seeing Chen Yu come out, He Lingyun hurried to meet him.

"She's fine. She lost too much blood and needs to rest now. Mom, let me re-dress your wounds," Chen Yu said.

In a hospital room, Chen Yu treated He Lingyun's wounds.

"Who did it?" Chen Yu asked in a deep voice.

"Currently, all signs point to Qiu Yanfang, but we have no evidence," He Lingyun said. "It's been decades; has she finally decided she can't help but make a move?"
