Chapter 66 The Last Hope

Gou Liuzi ultimately ignored everyone's advice and drove alone in a beat-up car with no papers towards the edge of the city.

On the road, Liuzi called Yu Mingyuan: "Don't even think about it, Wei Xiangzuo is our last hope, we definitely have to support him."

"You went by yourself, how are you going to support him?!" Yu Mingyuan frowned and roared, "He's been hit twice, you don't even know what the situation is around him. What if something happens?"

"I know that, but we don't have a choice now. If Wei Xiangzuo gets sniped outside the district, and Xu Hu stabilizes Zhanan, we won't be able to cope." Su Tianyu replied calmly, "We have to take a gamble. Right now, don't say anything else, just tell me, where are the Zhou family's people?!"

"They're around The Dragon City Rises; it'll still take about three hours," Yu Mingyuan replied.

"Tell them to hurry up, and have them call me directly when they arrive." Su Tianyu instructed in a low voice, "Also, contact the Chi Army. I'll rescue Wei Xiangzuo and send him directly there."

"Okay." Yu Mingyuan said, still worried, "Be careful. Save him if you can, but if you can't, make sure you stay safe."

"Don't worry, tonight I'll risk my life to create an opportunity for you, and give you a future!" Su Tianyu gritted his teeth and replied.

Yu Mingyuan understood Su Tianyu's meaning and urged again, "Be careful!"

"Got it," Su Tianyu replied, "That's it then!"

After speaking, the two ended the call.

Su Tianyu's risky rescue of Wei Xiangzuo was indeed for the sake of the Yu family, and he indeed wanted to create an opportunity for his side in the internal struggle of the Wharf Gang. But all of this was primarily for the Su family.

If the Yu family couldn't gain a foothold in The Dragon City Rises, the Su family would end up in a very bad situation, and that was something Su Tianyu absolutely did not want to see.

Su Tianyu held the steering wheel with his left hand and used his right hand to send a text message to Yu Jinrong: "Wei Xiangzuo must be protected tonight."

"Be careful!" Yu Jinrong quickly replied with a text message.

In fact, ever since the attack in District One, Su Tianyu and Yu Jinrong had been in contact separately, something even Yu Mingyuan wasn't aware of.

...

Ten minutes later, in the weedy area.

Wei Xiangzuo waited anxiously, preparing to call Su Tianyu again.

Just then, Xiao Xuan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly raised his arm and grabbed Wei Xiangzuo's wrist: "B-Big...Brother...I...I might not make it."

"Don't bullshit, help is coming soon!"

"...I...I can feel it...I...I'm leaving." Xiao Xuan gripped Wei Xiangzuo's wrist, blood once again seeping from his mouth and nose, "You...you all must live well...otherwise my death will be in vain..."

Wei Xiangzuo reached out and wiped the blood from Xiao Xuan's mouth and nose, lowering his head and roaring, "Brother, hang in there, help is coming soon!"

"I...I don't have a family...I've always treated you as my own brother...you...you must live well." Xiao Xuan murmured, closing his eyes again, blood gushing from the corner of his mouth, his breathing gradually weakening.

Wei Xiangzuo sat blankly on the grass, watching his brother's life slowly slip away, powerless to do anything.

In the bloody world of the martial arts, there was no such thing as luck or coincidence...Xiao Xuan was gone, he died in the weeds, the damp soil beneath him soaked red to a thickness of half a finger.

Another ten minutes passed, Su Tianyu turned off the car headlights and entered the weedy area, getting out of the car with a bag of medicine in his hand, only to see Xiao Xuan's body and Wei Xiangzuo covered in blood.

Su Tianyu paused, asking in a low voice, "He's gone?"

"Yeah." Wei Xiangzuo replied calmly.

"Let's go then." Su Tianyu showed no emotion, only whispering an invitation.

Under the moonlight, Wei Xiangzuo looked up at Su Tianyu, saying with a double meaning, "I still have brothers who haven't returned."

Su Tianyu frowned and looked at him: "Let's get to a safe place first, then have your brothers come over."

The two looked at each other, and just as Wei Xiangzuo was about to speak, his phone rang. He answered it in front of Su Tianyu.

"Brother, where are you? Lao He is dead, and I'm injured too...!" Cheng Gang's excited voice rang out on the phone.

"Who are you with?" Wei Xiangzuo asked calmly.

"I'm alone, we got separated, I don't know where Xiao Feng went." Cheng Gang said urgently, "I don't dare to go back to the district, and I don't dare to call the people below."

Wei Xiangzuo was silent for a moment, then immediately replied: "Do you know Maka Village?"

"Y-Yes, I know!"

"Wait for me at the south side of the village entrance. Remember, don't contact anyone now, especially not anyone inside the harbor," Wei Xiangzuo instructed.

"Understood!"

The two ended the call, and Wei Xiangzuo called Xiao Feng, learning that he was with two other brothers, and they were all injured.

After the men agreed on a meeting place, Wei Xiangzuo got up and said to Su Tianyu, "The news has leaked twice, what seems safe might not be safe. Do you have people? Yu Jinrong wouldn't just send you alone, would he?"

Su Tianyu looked down at his phone: "I have to wait for people to arrive."

"My brothers are all injured. If no one takes care of them, some will die." Wei Xiangzuo frowned and replied, "They don't dare to enter the district, and they have no support."

Hearing this, Su Tianyu suddenly felt a little棘手 (jí shǒu - thorny, troublesome). If he and Wei Xiangzuo left now, Xiao Feng, Cheng Gang, and the others might die if no one took care of them. But if they met again rashly now, something else might happen.

Most importantly, the Zhou family's people from District One hadn't arrived in The Dragon City Rises yet!

Su Tianyu was short of manpower, short of ruthless characters to use.

What to do? Su Tianyu was very conflicted, and after thinking for a long time, he called Yu Mingyuan again, asking directly: "How long until the people arrive?!"

"It'll be at least two more hours! I've already urged them," Yu Mingyuan replied.

Su Tianyu's eyes were deep, and he was very hesitant.

He had another trick, but he wasn't sure if he could use it now.

...

Twenty minutes later, Su Tianyu and Wei Xiangzuo, carrying Xiao Xuan's body, arrived at Maka Village.

As soon as they arrived, Xiao Feng's call came: "Brother, Cheng Gang and I have met up, he's also injured, the bleeding won't stop, where are you?!"

"I'm inside the third fork in the road, come here quickly," Wei Xiangzuo replied.

Inside the car, Su Tianyu smoked, looking down at his watch, feeling both anxious and hesitant.

After thinking for a while, Su Tianyu turned to look at Wei Xiangzuo and said, "I'll get out and make a call."

"Okay." Wei Xiangzuo nodded.

About three minutes later, Xiao Feng, Cheng Gang, and the others arrived next to the vehicle, supporting each other.

...

Outside the district.

A young man in his twenties sat in a beat-up pickup truck, cursing through gritted teeth, "Xu Hu is also a piece of trash, he couldn't kill Wei Xiangzuo after two tries, we have to do it ourselves."

"Yes," the person next to him nodded.

"Get the men together, quickly kill Wei Xiangzuo, and it'll be over." The young man, wearing camouflage clothing, said while sitting in the convertible pickup truck.
