1352 Words
Ethan Lee was like an enraged lion at this moment. After being apart for so long, the heartbreaking scene filled him with rage. Seeing July's pale face and closed eyes made Ethan furious! The wrath of a strong man would destroy all enemies in his path. Scarface pointed his gun at Ethan with disdain. "Who are you? Get lost, or I'll shoot you! I'll count to three... three, two..." Ethan coldly said, "Ghost Wolf!" Swish! A black figure flashed past Ethan, appearing beside Scarface like a ghost. With a spray of blood, Scarface's arm was severed and fell heavily to the ground! Ghost Wolf, the assassin, showed no emotion. He coldly said, "Anyone who insults the Master is my enemy!" Scarface clutched his bleeding stump, his face twisted in pain, and shouted, "What are you working for? Get him! Kill him!" Several henchmen shouted and charged. Ghost Wolf's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile. He held his dagger tightly, slaughtering his prey like a fierce tiger. The room filled with anguished screams, and the air thickened with the smell of blood! Ethan didn't even glance at them. He removed the blood tube and hugged July. The little girl lay motionless with her eyes closed. Ethan anxiously called out, "July! Wake up! Daddy's here! Open your eyes and look at Daddy!" Hearing Ethan's call, July slowly opened her eyes. Seeing the worried face in front of her, she smiled weakly and lifted her small hand, attempting to touch Ethan's cheek. "Dad... Daddy, is it really you? I finally saw my Daddy. Daddy, don't cry. You need to take care of Mom. July will become a star in the sky. When you miss me, just look at the sky, and if the stars twinkle, it's me winking at you." "Daddy, I don’t want to leave you..." Her weak voice grew fainter. Just as her small hand was about to touch Ethan's cheek, it fell limply, and her eyes closed slowly. "July!" Ethan roared, his powerful aura spreading in all directions! The ruthless Ghost Wolf trembled, an uncontrollable fear showing in his eyes! He had never seen Master Lee so agitated, making him shiver with fear. "July! My child!" Sophia crawled up from the ground. She rushed over, grabbing July from Ethan's arms, and cried hysterically, "July! Open your eyes and look at Mom! Wake up, I'll take you to get cotton candy! And to the amusement park! Didn't you always want to go there? Wake up, I'll take you to ride the merry-go-round and the roller coaster!" "July, Mom is begging you! Open your eyes!" Sophia's tears mixed with the blood on her face, dripping onto July's pale face, making Ethan more furious. Ethan's eyes were full of rage. He turned his gaze to the doctor responsible for drawing the blood. His look was like the stare of death, scaring the doctor so much that his legs gave way. The doctor collapsed to the ground, sweating profusely. The doctor stammered, "Sir, it's not my fault! I was hired by them! They forced me to draw the blood!" Ethan's cold voice rang out, "How much did you draw?" The doctor didn't dare lie. He stammered, "Three times... a total of 2500 milliliters." Ghost Wolf exclaimed, "What?! That much?!" For a normal person, drawing over 2000 milliliters of blood at once can be life-threatening. And July was just a five-year-old child! These inhumane beasts wanted to drain her to death! Ethan controlled his destructive anger and reached out to hold July. Sophia held July tightly, shouting angrily, "Don't touch my daughter!" Ethan squatted in front of Sophia and said, "Sophia, July is suffering from severe blood loss. If we delay any longer, she'll be in danger!" "I'm her father. We both have a rare blood type. Only if I give her a transfusion immediately can she be saved! Trust me! July is my daughter too!" Seeing Ethan's anxious and sincere eyes, Sophia bit her lip hard and reluctantly handed July over. Ethan took the child, immediately laying her on the bed and setting up the medical equipment. The blood of father and daughter intertwined drop by drop. July's face slowly regained a hint of color, while Ethan's face grew paler! Seeing this, Ghost Wolf was extremely anxious. "Master, you can't give any more blood! If you continue, your body won't hold up! I've already informed the seniors. They're rushing here as fast as they can. Blood from the hospital banks is also being mobilized to ensure the rare blood type gets here at the fastest pace!" Ethan's voice was deeply fatigued. "There's no time! July's condition can't wait another minute! Don't worry, my body can still handle it." Ethan lovingly looked at the small face on the bed. It was his first time seeing his daughter. His eyes were full of fatherly love. 'This child looks just like me! The nose, the mouth… They're like copies. Especially the eyes, even the look in them is identical. July... This angelic girl is really my daughter?' While filled with fatherly love, Ethan also felt a strong sense of guilt. So close! Just a little more, and his daughter would have been drained of all her blood! Looking at July's clearly malnourished face, Ethan felt deep remorse. 'They must have suffered a lot over the years! My disciples and students are spread all over, wielding great wealth and power. They hold me in high regard. I bask in glory, yet my wife and daughter live in such poverty. Even though I didn’t know the whereabouts of Sophia, I’m such a bastard!' Seeing the love and regret in Ethan's eyes, Sophia felt mixed emotions. Five years ago, in a moment of madness, he had taken her body but also left her the most precious treasure! She thought she had forgotten everything from the past. But seeing Ethan, Sophia realized that the man she wanted to forget was her unforgettable true love. Time passed slowly, and in just ten minutes, Ethan became very weak. Seeing his worsening face, Ghost Wolf knelt on the ground, begging, "Master, I beg you! You can't give any more blood!" Ethan ignored him, his eyes fixed on July! After a while, July's eyelids moved, and she slowly opened her eyes. The little girl curiously looked around, then fixed her gaze on the face beside her. "Dad... Daddy, is that you?" Her weak voice trembled slightly, filled with curiosity and closeness. July worried she was dreaming, afraid that her hand reaching out would shatter the dream. Her voice, though weak, sounded like an angel's. Ethan showed a loving smile, wanting to respond. But in his extreme weakness, he felt a strong dizziness and fell backward to the ground! At this moment, a group of distinguished guests rushed into the ward, just in time to see this scene. "Master!" "Master!" Their eyes were filled with anger. A distinguished general grabbed Ghost Wolf by the collar, shouting angrily, "Ghost Wolf! You're useless! What's wrong with the Master?!" Ghost Wolf lowered his head, apologizing, "It's the Master's daughter, his biological daughter. I was too late!" The general and other guests looked around the ward: the transfusion tube, the doctor, the dagger, the pistol, the fallen henchmen... Their sharp minds quickly deduced what had happened! After a brief silence, everyone in the room glared at the culprits, issuing deadly threats: "The Master's daughter suffered such torment. I'll turn this city into a hell of revenge!" "Pass my order, start the investigation immediately. Special forces on standby! Once the culprits are found out, deliver a devastating strike." "Get the best doctors and nurses here quickly! Make sure the Master and his daughter recover soon!" Master Lee had guided and taught elites from various fields for ten years, nurturing many brilliant students. Under his guidance, many had achieved great success. Among them, thirty-six achieved the highest accomplishments and were known as the Thirty-Six Disciples. And now, this small ward was crowded with over a dozen disciples! With their orders, a powerful force like a tsunami was about to engulf and destroy this city!
