Chapter 59 Conspiracy

At the entrance of East Lake City's public hospital, a man was pushing a small cart along the street, selling fried rice. There was a good amount of pedestrian traffic at the entrance of the hospital. They passed by the man's cart, but none of them approached him to buy his food.

Chen Yiming was also one of the pedestrians who had passed by the cart.

Why would someone suddenly sell fried rice at the entrance of the hospital? Will anyone buy it? Chen Yiming asked doubtfully.

If a person of good family background was hospitalized, they would hardly eat street food like the fried rice which was of dubious origin.

Given the current situation, in order to save as much money as possible, most people would cook in their own homes.

The hawkers did not have much room to survive.

Let's go, he's here.

Not far away, a man touched another man beside him. The two of them quickly disappeared from the corner of the wall where they were standing.

Although the man spoke in a low voice, Chen Yiming heard him clearly with his sharp senses.

It's a little strange. Chen Yiming sensed that something was amiss.

This feeling was hard to describe, but his intuition told him that someone was targeting him.

Chen Yiming analyzed the situation as he walked.

Very quickly, he identified the crux of the issue. There was a high chance that they were targeting Chen Shaojie, and he was a third party that got involved.

A new bloodline warrior was basically an ordinary person who had yet to master any of the basic moves.

It was not just Dr. Fu's laboratory that had a strong interest in his cousin. Other research institutes that specialized in the study of bloodline warriors might also be interested.

However, the official research institutes in East Lake City might be worried that Chen Shaojie had a cousin who was a core disciple of a martial arts school. They would not capture him openly.

Professor Fu's laboratory should not have such concerns. The abnormalities around the hospital could be the actions of someone trying to gather information.

After figuring out the whole situation, Chen Yiming walked straight into the hospital and into Chen Shaojie's ward.

In the ward, two of the three beds were empty.

Chen Shaojie was lying on the hospital bed in the middle, holding a book on martial arts in his hand. He was reading every word carefully.

This was the basic information about martial arts that was issued by the school when he was in junior high. Many of the pages were already missing

Cousin, why are you here?

Chen Shaojie saw Chen Yiming push open the door and enter. He closed the book and placed it on the table beside him.

I have something to tell you. Why are you alone? Where are Second Uncle and Second Aunt?

Chen Yiming entered and sat down on a chair beside the hospital bed.

One of them went to work, and the other went back to cook. By the way, why are you looking for me? Chen Shaojie asked. You have unexpectedly become a bloodline warrior and possess a special transformation ability. What are your plans from now on? Chen Yiming asked directly.

Although his cousin was also part of the Chen family, the situation was different from Chen Yingying, he could not make a decision for him.

What exactly are bloodline warriors? Cousin, can you tell me first? Chen Shaojie asked in return.

Actually, I'm not sure either. You just need to know that you have a chance to continue your martial arts career because of this incident, Chen Yiming said bluntly.

I understand. Chen Shaojie nodded.

With this incident, Chen Shaojie's physique had changed. He was no longer an ordinary person.

Cousin, before you came, a leader of the city patrol team came to see me. He asked if I was willing to join the army Chen Shaojie talked about what happened that morning.

Chen Yiming listened patiently.

The army might be a good choice for Chen Shaojie.

Because the military was actually the strongest martial arts faction in East Lake City, and there were a large number of soldiers at the disciple realm inside.

Chen Yiming had already sensed that something was amiss when he entered the hospital earlier. However, he couldn't possibly stand guard by Chen Shaojie's side forever.

Joining the army directly was the greatest form of protection. At the very least, it could let Chen Shaojie pass the stage of learning martial arts safely.

I think joining the army is very suitable for you, Chen Yiming replied.

Cousin, do you think so too? I am of the same opinion. Chen Shaojie voiced his thoughts. I don't know any sword techniques, so there's no chance of joining the Mantis Snake Sword School. If I join another private martial arts faction, I'm afraid I'll be sold off.

This was similar to how most of the graduates in Chen Yiming's previous life were passionate about taking the civil service exam.

The army was the strongest martial arts force in the area. Other than the 13 martial arts schools led by the warriors, it had always been the first choice for most young martial artists.

After all, the military had the most complete set of martial arts techniques. Be it sword techniques, knife techniques, fist techniques, or other martial arts techniques, they had all of them.

It was especially suitable for beginners like Chen Shaojie who had yet to determine his main cultivation technique.

I have something important to tell you. I noticed some abnormal signs on the way here.

I'm guessing that the group that captured you will come after you again. Hurry and give the leader an answer. I can't stand guard by your side forever, Chen Yiming said seriously.

Okay, Cousin. I'll contact the leader immediately. Chen Shaojie nodded. After completing the arrangements, Chen Yiming continued to stay in the ward to prevent any incidents from happening.

In a house dozens of meters away from the hospital, a young man and a young woman were sitting opposite each other. There were more than ten subordinates standing around them, and on the table was a map. The map detailed the public hospital and the surrounding areas.

Gan Shasha, you'll be in charge of bringing Chen Shaojie away later. I'll go and kill Chen Yiming first. Then, we'll meet up here, Han Fei said in a low voice as he pointed at a spot on the map.

Gan Shasha said unhappily, Han Fei, you're just trying to increase the difficulty of the job for your own selfish reasons. You're a bloodline warrior yourself, and you know the value of a bloodline warrior. How could you not follow the plan at such a critical moment?

Chen Yiming killed Xu Xuezhen. What's wrong with me avenging her? Han Fei said angrily.

Xu Xuezhen was the woman in the black dress who had been killed by Chen Yiming.

We can take revenge later. Chen Yiming is a newly appointed core disciple who has undergone three transformations. No matter how fast he progresses, it's impossible for him to break through to the sixth transformation in a short time. Gan Shasha disagreed with Han Fei's plan.

Han Fei and Gan Shasha were high-ranking combatants in Dr. Fu's laboratory. Both of them had undergone six transformations, and Han Fei was a bloodline warrior.

Anyway, I'll go and kill Chen Yiming first. The rest is up to you, Han Fei said.

Xu Xuezhen is only one of your wives. I don't see you placing much importance on her usually. If something goes wrong with the mission, I won't help you cover it up, Gan Shasha said directly.

With that, she left with her subordinates.

Gan Shasha and Xu Xuezhen could be considered friends, and she knew about the relationship between Han Fei and Xu Xuezhen. That was why she strongly opposed Han Fei changing the established plan.

Secondly, she was very unhappy with Han Fei's intention to attack Chen Yiming.

If it brought on the retaliation from the experts in the Mantis Snake Sword School, not only would the mission fail, but they might even lose their lives if they were unlucky.

Whether Han Fei died or not was none of her business, but she did not want to be dragged down by Han Fei.
