1135: Having Problems

Having Problems

Huo Yunshen had not been able to sleep well ever since the incident. He would wake up in the middle of the night, dreaming about his family members lying in blood.1

The scene had engraved itself into his head.

It would make him give into rage, having the impulse to destroy everything he saw.

He also lived in the agony of not being able to see his wife, living day by day missing her dearly.

He could feel himself slowly going insane when he looked at her pictures.

Ying Bao woke up in the middle of the night and saw her father crying by her mother's pictures.

"Daddy, why are you crying?" Ying Bao asked as she tried to help wipe off the tears on Huo Yunshen's face.

"I'm not crying, some dust flew into my eyes…" Huo Yunshen said as he hugged and kissed Ying Bao's forehead.

"Here, let me help you," Ying Bao replied while blowing into her father's eyes.

It made him remember the time when Xu Xiyan did the same thing when he was hurt.

"All right, hurry up and go back to sleep."

"When is mommy coming back?"

"She's working right now, so it might take some time."

"Will she be back when I wake up?"

"No, I don't think so."

"Then, can I call her?"

"There's no signal there, so you have to wait, okay? She will come back soon."

Huo Yunshen had no idea what he would become if not for Ying Bao still remaining by her side. His love and feeling of responsibility towards the child were what kept him sane.

After Ying Bao went back to sleep, Huo Yunshen headed to the study room and opened his computer for reports from the JS higher-ups.

Ever since Jing Xi disappeared in the Black Sea, Huo Yunshen had gathered all of the JS's resources to try and head into the Dark Sea to look for her.

And now the leaders of each group were reporting their situation.

"Boss, JS3 has sent 200 elites with 20 boats into the Black Sea, 12 of them have gone missing."

"All of JS6's equipment malfunctioned when they tried to enter the Black Sea, and they returned with no luck.

"JS11's patrol boats were attacked near the border, and we managed to take 2 of their ships down, but we also suffered a lot of casualties."

…

It was clear that the JS was having problems when trying to invade the Dark Zone's headquarters.

The hope of getting Xu Xiyan back was becoming thinner and thinner for Huo Yunshen.

Just as Huo Yunshen was thinking about his next step, one of his men reported that a person wanted to meet with him and handed him an invitation.

The invitation was from Estan's President, Helian Wei, himself, asking for a meeting.

…

Huo Yunshen arrived at the hotel Helian Wei was staying at the next day.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. President," Huo Yunshen greeted.

"Nice to meet you too, Zeus," Helian Wei smiled as he shook Huo Yunshen's hand.

Huo Yunshen quickly realized that Helian Wei must've identified him as Zeus during the G24 Summit.
