Chapter 293: No Small Matter

“Miss, please wake up!”

After confirming that Kong Nian was still breathing, everyone almost breathed a sigh of relief.

Kong Xiang immediately picked her up from the ground, attempting to wake her.

“There are more members of the Kong family here!” Zhang Ximing and Tian Wei discovered the unconscious Ruan Tao, Kong Yueqing, and Kong Yueling.

Gan Hua immediately ran over to them.

Meanwhile, Gu Yang’s heart was in his throat.

Whether it was Kong Nian or Ruan Tao and the others, they were all in an unconscious state, clearly having been injured. But what about Su Yan?

“Yan Yan! Are you here?”

He shouted loudly. The light in the dungeon was dim and indistinct; in his anxiety, he was nearly losing his composure.

Ma Chulong was just as agitated as him, because he realized that besides Su Yan, there was no sign of Feng Zong, which forced him to have dark thoughts.

However, they soon saw a figure walking out from the deepest part of the dungeon.

Gu Yang didn't even need to see clearly to know it was Su Yan!

“Yan Yan!”

His voice trembled with excitement as he lunged toward her.

Su Yan had known they were rushing over for a while, but she needed to confirm one thing, which was why she hadn't shown herself immediately.

The moment she heard Gu Yang's voice, a long-absent smile appeared on her face.

It seemed Gan Hua had gone out in time; he should have completed his task successfully as well.

When she was pulled into Gu Yang's tight embrace, she did not struggle or push him away.

He must have been extremely anxious during these past few days, and she indeed felt exhausted; now, she could finally relax.

Gu Yang felt as if he were about to suffocate. For so many days, he had been like a taut string, ready to snap or go mad at any moment.

At this moment, he never wanted to let go of the person in his arms.

Standing to the side, although Ma Chulong knew he shouldn't disturb them, he couldn't help but ask with concern, “Su Yan, are you alright?”

Only then did Su Yan steady her mind and pull away from Gu Yang.

At the same time, Gu Yang and Ma Chulong saw the wounds on her face and body. Not only that, she had put on that black cloth again.

“Yan Yan, you're injured?”

Gu Yang's voice suppressed far too much emotion.

Ma Chulong was also incredibly worried, but he couldn't show it too obviously.

At this time, Ma Chulan and Du Jinsong approached the two. Upon seeing Su Yan's condition, Ma Chulan immediately went to support her.

“Su Yan, are you okay?”

Facing her friends' concern, Su Yan gave a deliberate, slight smile. “They are just superficial wounds; it's nothing serious.”

They truly were just superficial wounds, they just looked severe.

“Are you really okay?” Gu Yang's expression remained tense.

Su Yan raised her voice slightly. “I am truly fine.”

Hearing the confidence in her voice, Du Jinsong let out a heavy sigh of relief first.

“What exactly happened here? Where is Feng Zong?”

They had already searched the entire dungeon and found no sign of Feng Zong. Since everyone else besides Su Yan was unconscious, they could only ask her.

Su Yan did not hide it, nor did she need to. “He's dead.”

Ma Chulong, Du Jinsong, and Ma Chulan looked at each other, their expressions equally complex.

“Now is not the time to discuss this. Since Feng Zong is dead, let's get Su Yan, Miss Kong, and the others to the hospital first, shall we?” Ma Chulong changed the subject, taking the initiative to propose.

Du Jinsong nodded in agreement; saving people was the priority.

Without waiting for Su Yan to react, Gu Yang scooped her up in his arms and strode toward the exit.

Du Jinsong signaled Ma Chulong to carry Kong Yueling on his back, while he and Zhang Ximing carried Ruan Tao and Kong Yueqing, as they were all unconscious.

Kong Nian was being looked after by Kong Xiang.

Kong Xiang looked at her pale cheeks and the dried blood at the corner of her eye with a heavy expression, his heart sinking.

He knew the methods of the Feng family better than anyone; how could that Feng Zong possibly let go of Kong Nian's ability?

If Kong Nian truly lost her ability, not only would he be unable to answer to the Clan Leader, but Kong Nian's very life would likely be completely changed.

After Gu Yang left with Su Yan, the police and other special operations teams mobilized, completely cordoning off the streets surrounding the dungeon.

Although Su Yan said Feng Zong was dead, there was no guarantee there weren't other survivors.

Su Yan, Kong Nian, and the others were arranged to enter the best hospital in the capital.

“Doctor, are you sure she doesn't need more tests?” Gu Yang frowned deeply, asking the doctor treating Su Yan's wounds for the third time.

The doctor and nurses were amused by his nervous demeanor.

“There really is no need. She only has superficial wounds. After applying the medicine, just make sure the wounds don't touch water.”

Even Su Yan was helpless.

Ma Chulong patted Gu Yang's shoulder. “Brother Gu, the doctor said so, you can completely rest easy.”

He intended to comfort him, but unexpectedly, Gu Yang showed a trace of pain.

Though he quickly suppressed it, Su Yan and Ma Chulong saw it clearly.

“You're injured?” Su Yan's reaction was even faster than Ma Chulong's, completely disregarding the fact that her eyes were still covered by the black cloth.

Gu Yang wanted to deny it, but the doctor was right there.

“Just some minor injuries.”

“It must have happened at Liu Yiyi's place. Brother Gu, you should get checked as well,” Ma Chulong urged.

Liu Yiyi had already been caught by them, and Du Jinsong was currently arranging the follow-up matters.

Gu Yang wanted to say something more, but Su Yan signaled directly to the doctor.

Having no choice, he could only follow the doctor for an examination first.

Only Su Yan and the Ma siblings were left in the ward, making conversation much easier.

Ma Chulong took the opportunity to ask, “Su Yan, did you kill Feng Zong? What exactly happened in the dungeon?”

As expected, Su Yan remained noncommittal. “Nothing else matters; there is only one thing you need to know.”

Her voice was incredibly serious, causing Ma Chulong and Ma Chulan to instantly realize something; they held their breath, waiting for her to continue.

“The mastermind behind this is not Feng Zong alone, but the entire Feng family.”

Since this involved an entire clan, Su Yan naturally would not involve herself alone; if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up.

With the Feng family in trouble, the other families would certainly not sit idly by.

The siblings both froze, and then their expressions turned extremely grim.

“Are you... sure?”

The lines of Ma Chulong's face tightened, and even the atmosphere in the ward became heavy because of Su Yan's words.

This matter was of utmost importance.

Su Yan nodded. “I'm sure.”

Ma Chulong's gaze shifted violently as he exchanged a look with Ma Chulan.

They naturally believed Su Yan; they had to notify their family and others as soon as possible.

“Do Kong Nian and the others know about this?”

“They should know.” Su Yan gave a definitive answer; after all, when she first confronted Feng Zong, those members of the Kong family had not immediately lost consciousness.

“Alright, I understand. Also, has something happened to your eyes again?”
