Chapter 898 - 899: Turmoil in the Jack Family
"Don't misunderstand, Mr. Asura, it was me and the other bodyguards who managed to capture a Five Poison Sect disciple, and that's how we found out!" Xiao Kuang noticed Yun Hao's expression, realizing he might be seen as a traitor, and quickly explained, stepping aside to open a cabinet inlaid into the wall and pulled out a person from inside!Seeing the person dressed in that distinctive green outfit, Yun Hao was speechless. Must Five Poison Sect always wear such identifiable attire when out on missions?
"Alright, lock him up. Just seeing their outfit makes my stomach uneasy!" Yun Hao waved his hand, then went to the bedside to observe Jack's expression closely!
Seeing Yun Hao like this, Xiao Kuang and the others dared not speak, afraid of disturbing Yun Hao and making him unhappy!
Afterwards, Yun Hao stepped aside to call Cold Face. It rang three times before he picked up!
"Hello, what's the matter? Calling so early in the morning, so inconsiderate!" Cold Face's voice was slightly breathy, seemingly engaged in some strenuous activity!
"Who is it?"
"Yun Hao!"
"Brother Yun, you're really ruining our mood here..."
Listening to Cold Face and Gao Shengnan's dissatisfied voices over the phone, a bead of sweat rolled down Yun Hao's forehead. Those two, at this time of day, still tangled in bed!
Really... so darn enviable!
Yun Hao hurriedly recounted Jack's current condition to Cold Face on the other end of the line!
After hearing Yun Hao's account, Cold Face was silent for a moment before saying, "I can treat this poison, but there's no medicine!"
Damn, no medicine? Without medicine, what are you even saying!
Just as Yun Hao was about to directly question Cold Face, he heard Cold Face speak again, "However, among the elixirs you snatched from the Five Poison Sect last time, there's an antidote for this poison! After administering it, it will only take half an hour for him to wake up!"
"I'll have Tank come to you for it!" Yun Hao responded, then hung up before calling Tank!
But damn, Tank was also doing those naughty things with Xiao Die!
Damn, can't these two brothers do something proper this morning?
Like, for example, being like him, tirelessly working for his wife's company, even skipping breakfast to rush out to negotiate business!
They've all fallen, only men as handsome as he remain consistently excellent!
"I've already sent someone to deliver the antidote. First, tell me what happened here? With so many bodyguards outside, how could they still fall victim?"
After settling everything, Yun Hao pulled the two women to sit down, then watched Xiao Kuang and asked.
Hearing Yun Hao's question, Xiao Kuang no longer concealed anything. Jack, before passing out, was still conscious and had repeatedly instructed that only Asura could save him!
If Asura needed anything, he must do his utmost to fulfill it at all costs!
Thus, Xiao Kuang explained the entire sequence of events to Yun Hao in detail!
After hearing Xiao Kuang's words, Yun Hao was silent, instinctively reaching for the cigarettes in his pocket, only to remember they had been taken by Chu Yan!
"Here!" Seeing this, Chu Yan proactively took out a cigarette for Yun Hao and even helped him light it!
"Thank you, dear wife!"
His own wife was indeed considerate. Though she usually forbade him from smoking, recognizing his need for a smoke, she not only gave it but also lit it for him!
According to Xiao Kuang, Jack's trip to Huaxia was initially to seek help from him!
It turned out that while in the United Kingdom, Hans had united many elders and patrons within the clan, also joining forces with numerous mercenaries, launching attacks from inside and out against Jack!
Initially, Jack had his supporters and had accumulated some power over the years, so he was not afraid of Hans at first, and the two sides were evenly matched!
However, suddenly, the Five Poison Sect intervened, each member an elite master, even his grandfather, Phil Clan's former clan leader, Phil Damon, was severely injured!
Without Phil Damon's support, those who originally supported Jack quickly defected, siding with Hans!
Just like that, Jack's situation turned grim!
Helpless, Jack had to call Thunder Mercenary Corps for help, only to find they were dealing with internal matters, and Liu Mengqi couldn't spare anyone, thus advising him to seek Yun Hao in Huaxia!
For people like them, without a valid reason to come to Huaxia, they'd definitely be closely watched by Dragon Scale, hence they came under the guise of investment!
Who would have thought, upon landing, they'd suffer attacks from the Five Poison Sect, and despite their full protection, Jack was still injured!
This matter couldn't be made public, so they continued as before, going through the motions of bidding while secretly monitoring Yun Hao's information!
Yet throughout this period, attacks from the Five Poison Sect remained constant, but recently, the opponents were not highly skilled, allowing them to barely resist!
When Yun Hao arrived, the bodyguards in the rooms he passed weren't all Jack's, some were sent by Hans, ostensibly to protect his younger brother from harm in Huaxia!
In reality, they were monitoring Jack, waiting for the day he might naturally die!
Hans could have sent someone to directly kill Jack, but to be Patriarch, he needed to ascend rightfully; if Jack were killed, many would suspect him!
If Yun Hao died of illness in a foreign land, it wouldn't be Hans's responsibility, and with the severely injured Phil Damon out, who would dare defy Hans?
Moreover, if Jack died of illness in Huaxia, they'd seize the chance to blame Dragon Scale, as it was Dragon Scale's fault for eliminating one of Hans's teams back then!
"Considering Jack's kindness to me before, this time I'll help revive Jack and take out all those bodyguards monitoring you!"
Feeling the cigarette burning hot, Yun Hao realized it was finished. He extinguished it and spoke to Xiao Kuang.
"Thank you, Mr. Asura!" Hearing Yun Hao's words, Xiao Kuang and the few bodyguards in the room simultaneously knelt down with utmost sincerity!
As long as Yun Hao agreed, their Young Master was certainly saved, and they believed Yun Hao had the power to lead them back and help Jack reclaim everything rightfully his!
