Sure enough, as soon as it was daybreak, those who had heard the news came over one after another to visit Patriarch Lu.
Those who came were all the other Patriarchs of the seven aristocratic families and Patriarch Lu’s old subordinates.
After everyone arrived, all of them talked noisily about the news they heard.
When the crowd had more or less arrived, Patriarch Lu was supported outside by Lu Yunxiao.
Everyone was surprised to see the both of them together.
Patriarch Lu looked at them and his gaze turned stern. With an expression of displeasure, he said, “What are you all doing here so early in the morning? I only accidentally tripped last night and I’m not dead yet.”
Patriarch Lu’s complexion did not look well and clearly, he did not manage to get a good night’s rest due to the fall last night.
Even though everyone was surprised to see his current condition, they still expressed their concern over his health on the surface. They planned to secretly get someone to spy on him after they returned. Thus, they only said a few pleasantries before they left.
After the matter here was successfully resolved, there was news that was unknowingly leaked out. The car accident that Lu Jingye and Zi Yi had suffered in was exposed and the reporters all rushed towards the Lu Family’s villa and the Dou Family’s residence.
Unexpectedly, the two areas were heavily guarded and they could not get into the premises.

There were some who went to M.Uni to catch the professors, only to find out that the professors had all headed for the research base.
The professors of the Dou Family members were all working for the national research base and how would the reporters possibly dare to head there?
Even so, Zi Yi and Lu Jingye’s death had become a trending topic that everyone was talking about.
“I didn’t expect that the Second Brother who I had been observing for so long had a car accident just like that.”
“Do you think it’s really a car accident? I saw the surveillance last night. It was clearly instigated. Didn’t you see how the security in the capital has been tightened recently?”
“Who could be the mastermind? Both of them are individuals the country attached great importance to these days and I didn’t expect that they would die just like that.”
“It’s just like a dream. He’s after all, the target that we’ve always worked hard to surpass. Now that you’re telling me he’s dead, why do I feel a little empty deep down inside?”
“Me too. Also, that Zi woman… It’s a pity that such a beautiful woman died like that.”
The deceased was the greatest in this situation. No matter who it was, whether they had true or false intentions, all of them would say a few regretful words.
In particular, when the students of M.Uni heard of the news, many of them burst out crying.
Only the Dean of M.Uni had received Zi Yi’s call and knew that the both of them were safe and sound. He then sternly reminded all the students to study hard. He also said, “This year’s special scholarship has already been obtained by someone. If you all wish to fight for it, you had better study hard.”
What the dean said was like a massive stone that was thrown into a lake, which caused great ripples.
Other than M.Uni students, everyone in the business world thought that Lu Jingye was dead. And so, they no longer held back and started their preparations to plunder and split up the Lu Group.
However, when everyone was about to take action, they discovered another hidden power swallowing up the Lu Group too.

A few days later.
Inside the secret base.
Zi Yi had created a super detector after working hard these days. This machine could detect all the components in a person’s body in a minute, identify cells that are in conflict with the human body, and also various toxins that are mixed in one’s bloodstream.
Elder Hu was simply amazed as he looked at the machine. “Little Zi, you’re too amazing. To think that you could create such an amazing machine during such a short period of time… If this machine were to appear in the industry, you could imagine the massive benefit it would bring about to the medical industry.”
However, Zi Yi was not too satisfied with it. “The materials aren’t the best and if I had better materials, I would have been able to finish it one day in advance.”
Elder Hu was simply speechless.
As soon as Zi Yi created the machine, she was prepared to use it to examine Dou Xiangling.
She, Lu Jingye, and Elder Hu were standing in another ward at this time.
Looking at Dou Xiangling who had a purple complexion, Elder Hu sighed and said, “That man is surely heartless. She’s such a lovely girl and I wonder how she even managed to endure the pain of the parasite gnawing on her heart.”
At the thought of the person who cast the parasite onto Dou Xiangling, Zi Yi felt killing intent surging from within. She said to Lu Jingye, “Get your men to bring Zhang Hanyu over.”
Lu Jingye’s men had captured Zhang Hanyu just yesterday.
In order to make Dou Xiangling suffer, Zhang Hanyu had been inflicting pain on himself. However, the end result of his actions was that he was in a worse state when compared to Dou Xiangling.
Soon, Lu Jingye got his men to bring the unconscious Zhang Hanyu inside.
At the sight of this man, Zi Yi felt her hands itch as she felt like giving him torturous acupuncture.
Lu Jingye seemed to have noticed her thoughts and said, “Get the parasite out from your cousin first. You can deal with him in whatever way you like later.”
Elder Hu who was standing next to them added. “The best way to deal with someone like him is to make him regret it for his entire life.”
Zi Yi nodded her head. She walked in between the two beds that Dou Xiangling and Zhang Hanyu were lying on and called out to Shadow.
As soon as Shadow appeared it called out, “Master.”
Zi Yi said, “I will open up the skin near my cousin’s heart and take out the parasite with the fastest possible speed. Catch the parasite and don’t let it go.”
She would not allow the Gu Master to feel that the parasite had been taken out.
After she said that, Zi Yi looked towards Lu Jingye.
He nodded at her and said, “Elder Hu and I will wait outside the operating room. As long as your operation is successful, we will be able to capture the Gu Master we have been tracking all these days.”
Zi Yi’s lips curled up. “Okay.”
Everything was prepared.
As Dou Xiangling’s clothing had to be taken off, Lu Jingye and Elder Hu left the room.
In fact, Elder Hu did not wish to leave at all. “Why is your cousin a female? If she were a man, I would have been able to witness Little Zi’s operation!”
Zi Yi had never personally done an operation and Elder Hu was curious at how she would go about doing it.
However, he ended up obediently leaving the room together with Lu Jingye.
As soon as the operating room closed, Zi Yi unbuttoned Dou Xiangling’s clothes and was prepared for her operation. She took the scalpel handed to her by Shadow and sliced the skin near her heart at an extremely fast speed. After her beating heart was revealed, before blood could even gush out, Zi Yi’s wrist turned and did a flick. The parasite had then been transferred over to Shadow’s hand. It then quickly placed the parasite next to the mountain rat’s heart.

Subsequently, it used special equipment to insert the parasite.
By then, Zi Yi had already finished stitching Dou Xiangling’s wound. At the same time, she used a medicinal powder she had specially developed.
The blood from the wound had stopped flowing very soon. Other than the scar, it was impossible to see that Dou Xiangling had just undergone an operation.
Zi Yi only used ten seconds to finish the operation.
“Master, the parasite has successfully entered the mountain rat.”
“Very good.”
Shadow then kept the mountain rat in a cage.
Zi Yi started operating the equipment to detect the residual toxins within Dou Xiangling.
Because the parasite had been living inside her body, the toxin had spread all around.
The detector equipment was connected to the virtual screen.
Strings of data that were constantly changing could be seen on the big screen.
Three minutes later, hundreds of toxins were identified and displayed in front of her.
