Chapter 32: A Desprete Plea [Bonus Chapter]

Kai tumbled out of the shimmer, landing with a heavy thud on the polished marble floor.

He lay there for a moment, panting heavily, the adrenaline leaving his body in a rush. "Damn," he rasped, pushing himself up with a grimace.

"That\'s the furthest I\'ve ever teleported in my entire life."

His eyes darted around the spacious foyer, taking in the familiar surroundings. Crystal chandeliers cast a warm glow on beautifully carved furniture and priceless artwork. But the beauty held no appeal for him at that moment.

His gaze fell on the two figures approaching him, their faces etched with concern. "Master Kai!"

One of the butlers, a wiry man named Chen, exclaimed.

"What happened? You\'re bleeding and... the young lady you were with... what happened to her body?"

Kai didn\'t waste time with explanations. Blood dripped down his arm from a shard of glass embedded in his flesh.

"Chen!" he yelled in desperation. "Take me to my grandfather! Now! Yanzi... she\'s badly injured. She could die!"

The two butlers exchanged a hesitant look. Chen, the cautious one, cleared his throat. "Master Kai, the Lord Patriarch is currently in an... important meeting with the Head of the Wei family. We wouldn\'t want to interrupt."

"Interrupt?!" Kai roared, frustration boiling within him. "Don\'t you understand? My girlfriend is dying! She needs a healer, and my grandfather is the best in the city! If you don\'t take me to him right now, she could bleed to death, goddamn it!"

The butlers flinched under the force of his outburst. Kai\'s emerald eyes usually looked playful and bright, but now they looked dangerous, like he was ready to murder someone. This wasn\'t the same young master they were used to.

Seeing the sheer intensity in his gaze, the other butler, a portly man named Bao, stepped forward.

"Very well, Master Kai." Bao sighed. "We understand the urgency. Follow us - we\'ll take you to the meeting hall. But be warned, interrupting the Lord Patriarch can have severe consequences."

Kai nodded, not caring about protocol at that moment. All he cared about was getting Yanzi the help she desperately needed. As the two butlers led him through the corridors of the estate, the weight of his decision settled upon him.

He had gambled on his grandfather\'s love for him, hoping it would outweigh the inconvenience of his intrusion. The fate of Yanzi, and perhaps the future of his relationship with her, hung in the balance.

...

In the massive meeting hall of the Li family estate, sunlight streamed through the high arched windows, illuminating the beautifully carved mahogany table that dominated the space.

Seated at its head was Kai\'s grandfather, Lord Han Li, a man whose age could be seen only in the silver streaks in his beard and the look of wisdom etched in the lines around his eyes.

His sharp gaze was currently fixed on the figure opposite him, Elder Wei Feng, the wizened head of the Wei family.

Elder Wei, despite being an elder as well, also sported a well-defined physique and was deep in conversation.

"Lord Han, the Wei family has made remarkable strides in our armored suit technology. These suits, unlike conventional equipment, are capable of augmenting the physical capabilities of even an Unawakened or an F-Rank individual to that of a D-Rank or even a C- Rank warrior. It\'s a revolutionary breakthrough, one that not even the Union could..." Boom!

Elder Wei\'s voice was suddenly cut short by the sound of a heavy oak door being flung open with a bang.

All eyes turned towards the entrance, where Kai stood, his face pale and his eyes holding a look of desperation. Blood streamed down his arm, staining his white shirt. Behind him, the two butlers exchanged nervous glances.

Lord Han Li\'s brow furrowed in a deep frown. He had instilled strict rules of etiquette in his grandson, and this blatant disregard spoke volumes of the situation\'s gravity.

"Kai," he yelled, his voice echoing in the vast hall. "What is the meaning of this interruption? Do you have any idea how rude it is to barge in on a meeting of such importance?"

Kai, however, ignored his grandfather\'s words. He strode towards the table, his gaze fixed on his grandfather.

"Yanzi," he gasped, his voice ragged. "She\'s... she\'s been critically injured. We need your help, Grandfather. Now!"

The room fell silent. Lord Han Li\'s stern expression softened slightly as he took in his grandson\'s disheveled appearance and the raw desperation in his eyes. Elder Wei, who previously looked excited, now wore an expression of concern.

Ignoring the silence in the room, Kai reached his grandfather and gently laid Yanzi\'s unconscious body on the floor. Blood had stained her pale skin and her ragged breathing sent a jolt of fear through him.

Lord Han Li wasted no time. He reached out, placing a hand on Yanzi\'s body. A soft golden light bloomed from his palm, covering her entire body.

The light gave off a calm welcoming warmth, and a gasp escaped Kai\'s lips as he witnessed the miracle unfolding before his eyes.

Yanzi\'s mangled limbs straightened out, the unnatural bends relaxing back to their natural state. The crimson stains on her skin vanished, turning back into a healthy flush.

Even the shards of glass embedded in her flesh were pushed out, dissolving into harmless particles of dust that drifted away in the golden light.

In a matter of seconds, what had been a seemingly disfigured figure with serious injuries was now a peacefully sleeping young woman.

As Yanzi was healed, Lord Han also placed his hand on Kai, healing the gash on his arm and the sting of the glass shards. He looked down at his now-smooth skin in shock.

Elder Wei, who had been a stoic observer until now, clapped his hands once, breaking the stunned silence.

"Extraordinary, Lord Han. That was truly remarkable! The first time I\'ve witnessed your talent in action. No wonder they call you the \'Hand of God.\' So this is what a true S-Rank

healer is capable of!"

Lord Han Li offered a calm nod, his expression calm. He knew the implications of his actions. Healing Yanzi in front of a respected figure like Elder Wei could open doors, but it could also attract unwanted attention.

Elder Wei then turned to Kai as he fell to his knees in relief and asked, "Now boy, straight to business. What is responsible for leaving your beloved in such a state?"

His tone was intense, as if silently promising to make who or whatever caused this to pay in

blood.
