Chapter 106 - About Sifeng's State

(flashback_on)

It was a dark night, Yushen was in a village on the slopes of the Changbai Mountains. Yushen visited the graves of his mother and grandfather. Yushen left his cell phone in the car.

After Yushen returned to the car, he reached for his smartphone and found that there were already dozens of missed calls from Zhang Sifeng. And Yushen got a short message from Sifeng.

[Gege, for the umpteenth time I need your help. I'm currently in the vicinity of Narin Gol Valley at the moment. An area in the Kunlun Mountains in Qinghai province. I'm fine, Yushen Ge.]

The sentence 'alright' made Yushen aghast. Yushen deeply understood the true meaning of that sentence..

The phrase 'alright' meant that something painful was happening to Sifeng. Yushen understood his brother's character very well. Zhang Sifeng often uttered the opposite meaning of the actual meaning.

Hurriedly, Yushen headed to the location Sifeng pointed out using the two Jade Bracelets of the Gods, both of which happened to be with Yushen at the time.

A second later, Zhang Yushen had already reached the location. Yushen tracked Sifeng's whereabouts via GPS from Sifeng's cell phone at the time.

Zhang Yushen entered the deepest forest. Walk through the thickets and jump over the big roots sticking out of the ground.

The road was still watery because it had just rained so heavily, it seemed. It's still drizzling at the moment. Yushen caught the shadows of two figures lying on the slightly watery ground. With the light of the flashlight that Yushen brought with him, Yushen shone at the two figures.

Slowly, Zhang Yushen approached the figure earlier. However, what did Yushen see at this moment? Yushen saw that Sifeng was lying weak and his body was getting colder and Sifeng's lips were already blue from the cold.

Beside Sifeng was also Madam Wang who was also unconscious. Really, at that moment it felt like Yushen's heart had stopped beating.

At first, Yushen thought it must be Madam Wang who was behind the wretched Sifeng like this time.

However, if you look at Madam Wang's unconscious state, this seems impossible. Madam Wang's face also looked very pale.

Yushen didn't know since when Sifeng and Madam Wang were in this state. Their body temperature was very cold.

Yushen's hands trembled as he lifted Sifeng's limp body into his lap.

"A-Feng! You can hear me, right?" Yushen called softly into Sifeng's ear.

Yushen would not let his sister be in danger again. When Yushen checked Sifeng's wrist, Sifeng's pulse was very weak and almost imperceptible.

Then, Yushen pressed his ear to Sifeng's chest. Sifeng's heartbeat was still detected, although it was very weak.

Yushen's tears could not be held back. Yushen bit his lip to muffle his tears. Yushen looked up, disguising his tears with raindrops.

Yushen wasn't ready for his brother to leave like this. Yushen had not done much to save his sister. If Sifeng had to go this way, Yushen would definitely regret it for the rest of his life.

Yushen acted quickly and immediately brought Sifeng's hand and Madam Wang's hand towards Yushen and Sifeng's two jade bracelets, Lord Jack's gift. They immediately teleported to the hospital.

Regret enveloped Zhang Yushen's heart. The events of that night definitely wouldn't have happened if Yushen had not left his cell phone in the car, when Yushen visited his mother's grave on the slopes of Changbai Mountain.

Yushen was very sorry. If at that time Yushen received a phone call from Sifeng, of course Yushen would immediately come to the location using the Jade Bracelet. And Yushen will help his sister against Madam Wang's kidnappers.

Yushen felt that he was a useless brother. Yushen wasn't there in Sifeng's time of need. Where was Yushen's promise to protect Sifeng? During this time, Yushen even felt that it was Sifeng who had always sacrificed to protect Yushen.

Zhang Yushen cursed his useless self. Yushen would never forgive himself, if anything happened to his beloved brother. Because Yushen was so sure that Sifeng would be harmed not because of the gunshots of the kidnappers, but also because of the effects of King Feuer's attack when Sifeng was protecting Vin and King Glen's attack when Sifeng was protecting Yushen.

So, it is very natural that Sifeng experiences cold and heat equally. It was due to the attacks of King Feu'er who controlled the fire element, and King Glen who controlled the water element. If Sifeng didn't have the power of 18 Gods, Sifeng would have died long ago.

Yushen still felt guilty that Sifeng had come to the God Realm as well because of Yushen's request. Yushen fulfills his obsession to find Wu Zhishu, but has to sacrifice his brother.

Zhang Yushen would do anything for the sake of Sifeng, his brother and also the person important to Yushen.

Maybe Yushen's affection for Sifeng seemed too much to some. However, this was indeed Zhang Yushen's character.

Yushen wanted to make up for his past mistakes that had hurt Zhang Sifeng.

In the past, Yushen had tried many times to kill Sifeng, because Sifeng was the child who took Yushen's place.

However, in the past two years, it was revealed that Sifeng was Yushen's younger brother. They are brothers from the same father and different mothers.

And when the truth was revealed, at that very moment Yushen had promised to protect Sifeng with all his life.

Zhang Yushen looked sadly at the man lying weakly on the ICU bed. Yushen really couldn't stand to see his brother's body wrapped in various clear tubes, which Yushen himself didn't know what the names of the medical devices were.

Yushen looked sadly at Sifeng who lay weak, with various medical equipment to support his life.

To Yushen, right now his life seemed meaningless without Sifeng's presence. Yushen was lazy to do anything right now. Yushen looks like a body without a soul. Yushen was suffering from regret.

Often Yushen's gaze was blank. Memories of Yushen's recent trip with Sifeng, often filled Yushen's head.

Sometimes Yushen even had a hard time distinguishing between the real world or the world of his imagination with his stupid little brother Zhang Sifeng.

"A-Shen, there's something uncle wants to ask you and your father," said the man in white that Yushen didn't know since when had been standing behind him. That man was his uncle, the younger brother of Master Zhang Minghao.

Zhang Yushen did not notice his uncle's arrival. Yushen had been daydreaming in Sifeng's infirmary for too long.

Yushen whispered a sentence to the man lying in front of him.

"Stay here, you idiot! I swear I won't admit you brother, if you leave without saying goodbye to me first!" Yushen whispered in a threatening tone, but actually he really missed Sifeng.

There was a deep sadness when Yushen spoke harshly like that.

In the end, Yushen left this green curtained room to follow in the footsteps of his uncle, Doctor Zhang Chen.

In the room which was dominated by white paint, Mr. Zhang was already waiting for Yushen and Dr. Zhang Chen.

"What's wrong, Xiao Chen? Just say it! Don't make me worry even more!" said Mr. Zhang to his younger brother, Doctor Zhang Chen.

"I really don't understand, Hao Ge. The bullets in A-Shen's shoulder and leg were successfully removed during yesterday's surgery. Supposedly, A-Feng should have regained consciousness a few days after the operation. But in reality, he's been in a coma for almost three weeks.

"Has your son been in such a serious accident before, Hao Ge?" said Dr. Chen while occasionally staring at the computer screen, which was in front of him.

"As I recall, A-Feng only had an accident during a fire at the robot park four months ago," said Mr. Zhang.

"A-Feng survived only with the help of a ventilator and other life-sustaining resuscitation equipment, Hao Ge."

"What do you mean, Shushu?!" Yushen shouted

* Shushu = uncle

"What do you mean by A-Feng who only survives because of medical devices?"

Yushen's voice sounded panicked. His mind was messed up. Maybe it's true that Sifeng can only be healed by supernatural powers like Gil said in the past. The medical device didn't seem to be able to help the injured person due to King Feu'er and King Glen's attack-class power.

***

Master Zhang and Yushen were still in Doctor Chen's room at this time. Doctor Chen said about Sifeng's condition, that Sifeng only survived because of the medical devices attached to Sifeng's body. And Doctor Chen said that if the medical devices were removed from Sifeng's body, then Sifeng would die right away.

The statement from Doctor Chen just now, took Master Zhang and Yushen by surprise. It was as if their heartbeats had stopped for a moment. They felt tightness in their chest knowing Sifeng was dying.

"A-Feng survived only with the help of a ventilator and other life-sustaining resuscitation devices, Hao Ge."

"What do you mean, Shushu?!" Yushen's voice sounded panicked.
