Chapter 277 - Begging on my Knees!

Zhou Yu furrowed his eyebrows.

He Qiang had the audacity to come knocking on his door.

What did he want to do?

“I’ll go check it out.”

Zhou Yu greeted Shui Tianyue before heading out.

At that moment, He Qiang was pacing back and forth in the living room.

As soon as he saw Zhou Yu, He Qiang rushed to welcome him.

“Mr.

Zhou.”

“Hmm?

What’s the matter?”

He Qiang said anxiously, “I heard that Pavilion Master Shui got into trouble, so I came here specially to check.

May I ask how she’s doing now?”

Zhou Yu said dispassionately,

“She’s fine now.”

He Qiang was taken aback.

Fine now?

In Wucheng, he was virtually omnipotent.

When he learned that Zhou Yu had killed the third master of the Dong Family, Dong Minghao, and also slain Master Chang Hui of Yongle Palace in order to save Shui Tianyue, he was so shocked that it took him a long time to come to his senses.

Later, when he had fully processed the event, he immediately made a decision: to befriend Zhou Yu.

Although he was the overlord of Wucheng’s underworld on the surface over the years, in reality, he was tightly controlled by Jie Lao.

If he wished to break free from Jie Lao’s grip, he needed to find someone who could contend with him.

And Zhou Yu was clearly such a person.

Therefore, He Qiang came looking for Zhou Yu, willing to take a gamble.

He hadn’t come empty-handed; he had taken the trouble to find out about Shui Tianyue’s injury and had prepared Spiritual Medicine to eliminate scars.

But he hadn’t expected that within just half a day, Shui Tianyue’s wound would heal.

Could it really be true?

He Qiang was astonished, yet he harbored some doubts.

Just then, Shui Tianyue also came out.

“Zhou Yu, is everything okay?”

She was concerned that He Qiang’s visit did not bode well, so she had followed him out.

Upon seeing Shui Tianyue’s appearance at that moment, He Qiang was thoroughly stunned.

He couldn’t believe the condition of Shui Tianyue’s skin.

It really had recovered!!!

Seeing He Qiang staring fixatedly at Shui Tianyue, Zhou Yu furrowed his brows, about to get angry.

But then, He Qiang ‘thump’ fell to his knees on the ground.

“Mr.

Zhou, there’s a favor I must ask of you.

If you can help me with this matter, from now on, I would be willing to serve you like a loyal dog or horse.”

Zhou Yu was startled for a moment.

After all, He Qiang was the overlord of Wucheng’s underworld and also a high-ranking master of the Innate Body Refinement realm, yet he was actually kneeling before him.

However, if He Qiang could really work for him, that would indeed be a nice boost of support.

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Yu asked.

“It’s like this.

Five years ago, my elderly mother was involved in a car accident and was critically injured.

I sought out many Divine Doctors, but to no avail.”

“Later, Jie Lao appeared.

He saved my mother, but although he preserved her life, she has been in a coma ever since.”

“Jie Lao told me that as long as I serve him and do his bidding, he guarantees that my mother will wake up after ten years, and even prolong her life.”

“I had no choice but to submit to him at that time.”

“But I’ve always suspected that he used some underhanded method on my mother.”

“Mr.

Zhou, your medical skills are profound, I beg you, please save my mother.”

He Qiang suddenly started kowtowing to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu had not expected this underworld boss of Wucheng to be such a filial son.

He couldn’t help but gain a new respect for He Qiang.

“Take me to see your mother.”

“Wonderful.” He Qiang was grateful.

“Mr.

Zhou, my mother is currently at the Wucheng First Hospital, if you would please come with me.”

Zhou Yu told Shui Tianyue to rest assured and went to the First Hospital with He Qiang.

On the way, Zhou Yu asked,

“Who is Jie Lao?”

He Qiang spoke with a complex expression,

“I don’t know much about him, but his power is unfathomable.”

“It seems he has many high-ranking masters of the Innate realm serving under him.”

“Although I do his bidding, I have never met him.

All this time, I’ve just been responsible for gathering Spiritual Medicine for him.”

After hearing He Qiang’s description, Zhou Yu also showed a thoughtful expression.

It seems that this Jie Lao is no simple character.

“Oh, by the way, this time Liu Zhong invited our Donglin Gang to deal with Zhu Sanlong, it was Jie Lao’s idea.”

“Oh?”

Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed.

He didn’t say much more.

Soon, the two arrived at the Wucheng First Hospital.

In the VIP intensive care unit, Zhou Yu saw He Qiang’s elderly mother.

She was an old lady over eighty years old, with a head full of silver hair.

She was hooked up to a heart rate monitor, which showed her heartbeat was stable, with no problems, but she lay still, looking as if she was in a deep sleep.

He Qiang held tightly onto his mother’s hand.

“My mother has been in this state for nearly five years now.”

Zhou Yu nodded, walked up to his mother, and took her pulse.

He Qiang watched Zhou Yu nervously.

After a moment, Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows.

“She’s been drugged!”
