Chapter 1282: Wu Family's Great Master
Meanwhile, in the City Hospital.
"HICKKK HICKK"
One of the patients in the private rooms hiccupped while he was being fed his lunch.
"Ahh, Ping'er, what happened, why are you suddenly hicking up so much?"
Wu Ping's mother, who was also the wife of the head of the Wu family, Su Xin asked in worry as she hurriedly picked up the glass of water and handed it to her son who had started to choke because of the sudden hiccups.
"HICCKKK"
Wu Ping hiccuped once again before sipping the glass of water handed to him by his mother and drinking the entire glass of water in one go.
Only after then did he feel better, but those few sudden hiccups had caused his face to turn red from choking.
"You should be careful when you swallow."
A voice came from behind Su Xin, making both of them turn in the direction of the source.
"Husband."
"Dad."
The two called out simultaneously.
The person who had walked into the room was indeed none other than Wu Jiang, the current patriarch of the Wu family.
"It's alright, you should recover first."
Wu Jiang waved his hand off before walking towards them.
Taking a look at his son's fractured leg, Wu Jiang frowned.
"Don't worry, I can't remain put with that b@stard still moving free, no matter who he is, I will make him pay for what he has done."
Before the two could speak, Wu Jiang said with a serious tone, to which none of the two could dare to speak in return and simply listened.
"I have talked with all the members, the ones with us have already agreed, and now they are trying to convince the others to ask the Great Master's help."
Hearing his words, Wu Ping and Su Xin, both had their eyes wide open with a crazed look on their faces.
Although she had just heard legends about this Great Master and had never seen him in person, she was aware of what he was capable of.
It was said that the Great Master their family called was a man who had ties with the previous patriarch of their family, and in fact, was someone who was around the same age as Wu Jiang and Wu Tian's father.
However, it was said that the man barely looked like someone who had turned 50.
As for his power, it was sad that he could easily defeat ten fully grown bulls at once and could even dodge a bullet if someone were to aim a gun at him.
According to them, he was no less than some godly being.
As for Wu Ping, he couldn't help but chuckle and look at his father before saying.
"Dad, is that true?"
"Hmm." Wu Jiang nodded.
An old memory flashed before his eyes.
It was when Wu Ying was about ten or so years old and his grandfather was still alive.
That day, someone came to their house, and his grandfather introduced the man as his friend, of course, young Wu Ping wasn't able to believe this since the man didn't look any closer to how his grandfather looked, old, tired, and body filled with weakness.
Later on, curiosity engulfed Wu Ping's mind as he saw the two men call each other names, this astonished the young Wu Ping since there was rarely any person who would call his grandfather by his name.
Every time his grandfather met someone, they would bow before him and call him respectfully, but this man who had seemingly come to meet him was way too casual.
And in fact, his grandfather also kind of seemed to be showing some respect to him.
Who was his grandfather, back then he was one of the most influential people and also the patriarch of the two most powerful families in the city.
And yet he was respecting and even slightly bowing to someone who seemed way younger than him.
With curiosity blinding his eyes, young Wu Ping would follow the man everywhere he went.
And at one time, the man went to his family garden.
Wu Ping clearly remembered what had happened that day.
The boulder that he had seen at the same spot in their family garden since the time he understood anything, that massive boulder of pure basalt was moved with a push of the man.
This had caused such shock and amazement in young Wu Ping that he even revered that man as a real Superman.
But since then, and till this day, no one had ever heard of that man, much less talk about him.
Every time he used to ask his father about him, Wu Jiang would say that he was their family's protector and should be greatly respected and never be disrespectful to him.
This was the first time in these 15 years that he had heard his father mention the Great Master since his grandfather's death after which his Wu Jiang took the position as the patriarch of the Wu family.
After recalling the man from his memories, Wu Ping didn't doubt that the man who had broken his leg would not even stand a chance against the Great Master of his family.
In fact, he was confident about it since long ago his father had told him that such people only get more powerful with the passage of time and since more than 15 years had passed already, he was sure that the Great Master was way more powerful than what he was capable of doing before.
Seeing that her son seemed to be in a much better condition, Su Xin raised the bowl of soup and began feeding him.
Meanwhile, Wu Jiang was staring out of the window with a deep thought running in his mind.
'Even if he is much more powerful than what he used to be before, we will not be able to find that person who harmed Ping'er.'
'And with Li Zhiyun now back, we won't be able to fight the Han Industries like before.'
His eyes were fixed at the Han Industries headquarters building that he could see from the window.
