"Is this the Ascension of the Twin Dragons?"
In a certain place in Guangzhou, an old man opened his eyes and gazed at the strange phenomenon in the sky, frowning. "Two dragons do not meet, so why would two hidden dragons ascend at the same time? What is going on here?"
"Senior Brother, why are there two hidden dragons ascending in the sky at the same time?" In a suite of a five-star hotel, a woman in her twenties asked a young man standing on the balcony, gazing at the sky in deep thought.
"Two dragons ascending is a rare sight in a thousand years. It seems the heavenly secrets have been tampered with. What a grand move! Who is the mastermind behind this? Doesn't he know that one of the two ascending dragons must perish, and isn't he afraid of the karmic retribution?"
"Interesting, very interesting. It seems there is a master at this exchange meeting." A man in a black robe stroked his chin, gazing at the sky with a deep smile.
"Master Fan, do you mean that the two ascending dragons are someone's doing?"
"Exactly. I wonder which of my peers has such great power to obscure the heavenly secrets. I really want to meet him."
"If Master Fan says so, does that mean you also have the ability to obscure the heavenly secrets?"
"I can't." The man in the black robe glanced at the person behind him, then focused his gaze on the sky, remaining silent.
The person behind him, upon hearing the man in the black robe's words, showed a worried expression, but quickly concealed it. He also turned to stare at the two ascending dragons in the sky. If Qin Yu and Mo Yongxing were here, they would recognize the person behind the man in the black robe as He Ping.
At this moment, Qin Yu's face was full of bitterness. Who would have thought that another hidden dragon would ascend in the Jingxiu District today? No matter which dragon fails, the one responsible for all this would be him, and the karmic retribution would fall on his head.
Turning to look at the four people below, who were staring at the sky in shock, Qin Yu could only shake his head and think to himself, "Meng Yao, your father is fine, but this karmic retribution will be on my head."
Earlier, Qin Yu could still feel a trace of the hidden dragon's resentment in his future father-in-law. As the hidden dragon ascended, this resentment completely dissipated.
In the sky, the two hidden dragons' struggle had reached a fever pitch, their bodies frequently appearing. Even the citizens could see that the two dragons were fighting.
Suddenly, a dragon's roar echoed again, but this time it seemed to carry anger and sorrow. Hearing this roar, Qin Yu's eyes lit up, and he stared intently at the cloud gate in the sky.
"Is it about to be over?"
At this moment, many people, like Qin Yu, had their eyes fixed on the sky, trying to see through the clouds.
"It's raining, it's raining."
The two dragons' figures disappeared into the clouds, and then a light rain began to fall. Countless citizens shouted, "This is the divine dragon bringing rain."
"Qin Yu, why is it suddenly raining? Is it because the hidden dragon has successfully ascended? Hey, Qin Yu, what's wrong with you?"
As the light rain fell, for some reason, Mo Yongxing felt a deep sadness in his heart, as if the rain contained unwillingness and anger, which eventually turned into a sigh.
Mo Yongxing was about to ask Qin Yu on the platform, but suddenly noticed a trace of blood at the corner of Qin Yu's mouth, his face pale, almost collapsing.
"What's wrong with you, Xiao Yu?"
Zhang Hua, hearing Mo Yongxing's words and seeing his cousin's condition, rushed to the platform. However, a figure had already flashed past him, quickly reaching the platform and supporting Qin Yu. It was the guard, Xiao Zhang.
"Are you okay, Master Qin? Do you want to go inside and rest?" Meng Fengye walked over, concerned.
"Are you too tired? It's raining outside, let's go inside the hall." Zhang Hua also advised, thinking Qin Yu was just exhausted. After all, opening the dragon gate was like a fairy tale, and it must have taken a lot of mental energy from Qin Yu.
"Cough... cough, no need, keep watching." Qin Yu gave a grateful look to the guard, Xiao Zhang, and continued to gaze at the sky.
"I did not kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me..." Qin Yu looked at the sky, saying something that left everyone puzzled.
Seeing everyone's confused expressions, Qin Yu smiled bitterly and explained, "When a hidden dragon ascends, if it succeeds, it will soar through the four directions. If it fails, it will transform into a rain to nourish all things. With two dragons ascending, there must be a struggle, and the loser will transform into rain."
"This time, the one that failed is the other hidden dragon in the Jingxiu District. Today was supposed to be its day of ascension, but because I obscured the heavenly secrets, it led to a struggle between the two dragons, causing it to fail and transform into rain."
Qin Yu reached out to catch the light rain falling from the sky. The rain felt like heavy drums hitting his heart, a sign of mental injury and heavenly retribution, the karmic retribution.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening thunder. Silver lightning danced in the sky, accompanied by rolling thunder, making everyone uneasy.
"Here it comes!" The young man in the hotel suite's eyes lit up, and he whispered.
"The three calamities are here!" The man in the black robe looked up at the sky, his face showing excitement.
At this moment, in many corners of Guangzhou, dozens of people raised their heads to stare at the sky, their eyes shining, as if waiting for something.
The thunder grew louder, and many people were awakened by the noise. The frequency of the lightning increased, with dozens of bolts striking simultaneously.
The scene was like a Hollywood apocalyptic disaster, with countless children hiding in their parents' arms, crying.
The lightning and thunder lasted for a moment, then suddenly stopped, followed by a heavy downpour.
"Sigh, it failed again!"
"The struggle between the two dragons consumed most of their energy. How could they possibly survive the three calamities?"
"Pfft!"
Sitting on the platform, Qin Yu, seeing the heavy rain, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned as pale as paper, his body trembling. He tried to speak but couldn't, and then fainted.
"Qin Yu!"
"What's wrong with you, Xiao Yu?"
"Master Qin!"
...
"Cousin, how are you feeling? Are you better now?"
In a high-end ward of a hospital, Qin Yu was lying on the bed, flipping through a magazine. It had been three days since he fainted.
"At the time, you scared us to death. If you hadn't woken up quickly, I would have called Auntie." Zhang Hua walked in with a bag of fruit, followed by Tong Min.
As he spoke, Zhang Hua still looked shaken. A person suddenly spitting out blood and fainting was truly terrifying. Fortunately, there was a medical room in the Jingxiu District, and Meng Feng called a few doctors. They said Qin Yu was exhausted, his blood pressure had suddenly risen, and he had fainted due to a sudden loss of breath.
After the doctors' emergency treatment, Qin Yu woke up on the spot. However, Meng Feng and others insisted he go to the hospital for rest and recovery. Meng Feng even called the city hospital to arrange a high-end ward for Qin Yu.
But to be honest, this high-end ward was almost like a five-star hotel suite, with a bathroom, balcony, and even an office, fully equipped. If it weren't for the IV drip on Qin Yu's hand, it would be hard to tell this was a hospital ward.
Actually, the high-end wards in the city hospital were designed for the wealthy and powerful. Many company executives, even when hospitalized, still had many things to handle, so the hospital provided an office in the ward for their convenience. Of course, the price of these high-end wards was much higher than ordinary wards.
"By the way, cousin, you haven't told me why you fainted."
"During the ritual, I suffered a backlash. A few days of rest will be fine."
Qin Yu casually avoided the topic and asked, "You didn't call my parents, did you?"
"No, if I told Auntie about your fainting, my parents and grandmother would beat me up."
Zhang Hua rolled his eyes. His cousin was definitely more favored than him. If the family found out he fainted in Guangzhou, his father might be the first to come and beat him.
"Good, that's good."
"Ring, ring..."
Qin Yu's phone on the bedside table suddenly rang. Looking at the number, he smiled and turned to his cousin and Tong Min.
"I'll take this call. Miss Tong, please make yourself comfortable. Cousin, what are you standing there for? Go and cut some fruit for Miss Tong."
With that, he took the phone and walked to the balcony, pressing the answer button.
"Hello, is this Qin Yu?"
A pleasant and clear voice came from the phone. Hearing this voice, Qin Yu's expression softened. For Meng Yao, even if he had to bear some karmic retribution, it was worth it.
"Yes, it's me." Qin Yu replied calmly.
