"Xu Feng has appeared!"
The few short words spoken by his uncle left Wei Yuan in shock. He hurriedly asked, "Where is he?"
Xie Ge did not directly tell Wei Yuan, but instead said, "You come over first, we'll talk when we meet, and bring the baby along."
"By the way, why didn't the baby go to school?"
Since Wei Yuan was using a loudspeaker, Xie Yufei could hear her father's words clearly. Fearing that Wei Yuan would reveal that she pretended to be sick to skip school, Xie Yufei shook her head vigorously with a pleading and aggrieved expression, hoping he wouldn't betray her.
"She's not feeling well; I helped her take a day off," Wei Yuan replied.
To avoid alarming Xie Yufei, Wei Yuan was trying hard to conceal his emotions. However, upon hearing about Xu Feng's whereabouts, his eyes turned red, and he clenched his teeth tightly, memories of the tragedy caused by Xu Feng flooding his mind.
His father had died, and his mother had fallen and injured her leg as a result. The once happy family was now devoid of laughter; all of this was thanks to Xu Feng. Hearing that Cousin knew his whereabouts filled Wei Yuan with not only seething hatred but also an inexplicable excitement, akin to the cold smile of a murderer with blood on their lips.
This overwhelming emotion nearly frightened Xie Yufei, prompting Wei Yuan to quickly turn away to continue the call. Unbeknownst to him, his cousin had not yet grasped the intensity of his feelings. To prevent Wei Yuan from slipping up, she rushed over and hugged his shoulder, snatching the phone from him. "Dad, I'm fine; it's just that my brother is too worried."
Taking back the phone, Wei Yuan said, "We're coming over now."
He had no desire to catch up with his uncle; everything could wait until they met. At that moment, he just wanted to leave quickly. He turned to his cousin and said, "Pack your things; I'll take you home."
Seeing the cold expression on Wei Yuan's face, Xie Yufei, who had grown up with him, understood him well enough to keep quiet. She quickly gathered her clothes and followed Wei Yuan downstairs.
Since they were only staying for a short while, she only needed one bag for a change of clothes, toothbrushes, milk powder, and other essentials. There was no need to open the trunk; she simply tossed it into the back seat of the Mercedes.
As they drove, Wei Yuan maintained a stern and indifferent expression, making it clear that even this mischievous girl dared not provoke him. She knew her brother well enough; he would never treat her this way unless something serious was happening.
With no intention of calming down, once they hit the highway, Wei Yuan noticed the silence around them and suddenly pressed the accelerator to the floor. In less than ten minutes, the Mercedes reached Luoxia Mountain, which was on the way to his uncle's house.
Despite feeling agitated, when they arrived at this spot, Wei Yuan couldn't help but ease off the gas. It was here that he had been struck by Ma Teng driving a BMW, leading to an accident that ultimately brought him unexpected fortune—he encountered a mysterious force at the bottom of Luoxia Lake, which granted him the ability of Repairing Ability.
"Uh... what's going on?"
Suddenly, when the Mercedes passed by Luoxia Lake, Wei Yuan noticed something unusual. He quickly stopped the car, opened the door, and rushed over to take a look. The once clean and clear Luoxia Lake was now filled with various types of garbage floating on the surface, surrounded by all sorts of flies and mosquitoes, making it a disgusting sight!
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Xie Yufei saw Wei Yuan staring intently at the situation and suddenly became very worried about him, so she asked with concern.
Wei Yuan anxiously asked, "When I came here a month ago, Luoxia Lake was still beautiful and crystal clear. How did it suddenly become like this?"
It's no wonder Wei Yuan was so anxious; his ability was gained after falling to the bottom of Luoxia Lake. Now that the lake had changed so drastically, he couldn't help but worry about himself.
Xie Yufei was also puzzled by the situation: "In the past, we used to dump garbage directly into the lake, and strangely enough, after about two or three days, the garbage would disappear without a trace. But in this past month, something has changed. Even though people here have stopped dumping garbage into the lake, it just keeps piling up."
Through Xie Yufei's explanation, Wei Yuan gathered his thoughts. It seemed that the Repairing Source Power originally contained at the bottom of Luoxia Lake had been completely absorbed by him due to an accident. When there was Repairing Source Power at the bottom of the lake, all the garbage dumped there would be automatically cleaned up every two or three days.
Thus, residents saw that the garbage was automatically cleared away periodically. However, after he completely absorbed the Repairing Source Power, this situation changed, resulting in the floating garbage Wei Yuan now saw!
"Something seems off!"
This thought kept surfacing in Wei Yuan's mind. To be precise, he had a new discovery: his Repairing Ability required him to activate Mist-like Space to function. But when Repairing Source Power was at the bottom of Luoxia Lake, it would automatically take effect after a certain period.
In other words, Restorative Power had a spontaneous nature after encountering water for a while. If he could completely transform the Dark Ink-colored Mist in Mist-like Space into Transparent Substance in the air and then integrate that water containing Restorative Power for other uses, would it yield different effects?
"I should find time to experiment with this!"
With this discovery in mind, Wei Yuan suddenly developed a new idea; it seemed like a new path for his Repairing Ability had opened up. However, he still felt lost about how to proceed on this path.
Wei Yuan didn't have time to dwell on it; he temporarily took his cousin back into the car and continued driving forward. After advancing less than a hundred meters and turning at the last intersection, his uncle Xie Ge was already waiting for him at the corner.
Initially thinking that Wei Yuan had taken a taxi or bus to get there on foot, Xie Ge was startled when he saw Wei Yuan driving a Mercedes.
Wei Yuan stopped the car, knowing that his uncle was specifically waiting here to talk to him. He got out of the car with his cousin.
Xie Ge walked over first, touched Xie Yufei's forehead, and seeing her mischievous expression, he decided not to confront her about pretending to be sick. Instead, he said to his daughter, "Baby, Dad needs to talk to Wei Ge. You go home first."
Xie Yufei was already faking illness to skip school. Seeing her father made her nervous, especially since both their faces looked serious. Realizing something was off, she felt relieved when she heard her father's words. She quickly slung a bag of her belongings over her shoulder and dashed away.
Watching Xie Yufei run off, Wei Yuan hurriedly approached his uncle and asked, "Where is Xu Feng?"
Xie Ge was fully aware of Wei Yuan's resentment towards Xu Feng. Seeing Wei Yuan's eyes redden and his lips tremble as he spoke, Xie Ge felt that his concerns were indeed justified.
"Get in the car first. You shouldn't go back like this; your mom will worry," Uncle Xie said.
Wei Yuan agreed with his uncle's reasoning. After all, even if he found Xu Feng now, he would only be able to track his whereabouts and slowly devise a plan against him. There was no way he could confront him directly.
Unless it was like Yuan Ziyi did, where he took matters into his own hands against Xu Feng, possibly eliminating him altogether. This could lead to two outcomes: one being discovered and either fleeing or facing dire consequences; the other being undetected but still unable to clear his father's name.
Neither outcome was what Wei Yuan wanted, but if pushed into a corner, he would consider such measures. He would ensure that Xu Feng would not have an easy time; all blood feuds could only be washed away with blood!
"Stay calm for now; I'll explain everything in detail," Xie Ge reminded him.
The main issue was that Wei Yuan's hatred for Xu Feng ran too deep, making it difficult for him to control his emotions at that moment. However, he knew that to deal with Xu Feng effectively, he needed to remain composed and think of a way to strike decisively so that Xu Feng would never rise again!
Wei Yuan took several deep breaths, opened the car window to let the polluted air from Luoxia Lake flow in, took a sip from a bottle of mineral water, and splashed some on his face through the window.
Then he said, "I'm ready now; you go ahead."
"Drive over to the factory; I'll follow you slowly," Xie Ge instructed.
Wei Yuan didn't ask why; he simply followed his uncle's instructions and started the car. Before long, they arrived at his uncle's factory. When they got out of the car, Wei Yuan noticed that there was no one inside the factory.
Seeing Wei Yuan's surprised expression, Xie Ge explained, "I specifically had them take the day off today just so I could come pick you up and show you something."
Wei Yuan knew that his uncle's matters were definitely related to Xu Feng, so he stopped talking and waited for his uncle to take out a few order forms from the drawer of his office. Inside were some pharmaceutical processing orders, mainly for three types of medications: granules, capsules, and liquids.
"What is this?"
Wei Yuan saw that the order quantities were quite large, and the delivery time was relatively short. Logically, his uncle should have been working overtime at this time, so why was he giving the workers a holiday?
"Half a month ago, someone asked around and placed these orders with me. Since the quantity is quite large, we usually require a deposit of about 20 to 30 percent. However, that person paid half of the deposit all at once and requested delivery on a specified date. But I could tell he was clearly not from the industry."
Wei Yuan listened as his uncle continued, "I noticed he was very anxious. Normally, deliveries are made in batches, but he sent someone to pick everything up at once, which struck me as odd. So one time, I decided to follow him in my car!"
Wei Yuan understood that his uncle was concerned about the other party's strange behavior and feared that if something went wrong, it would implicate his own factory.
"Who would have thought that the other party had another factory and sent the medications produced here to that factory? I also discovered that Xu Feng was in the office of that factory. So I hurried to inform you."
"When did this happen?"
"A while ago!"
