Chapter 745: Ye Snr.’s Illness Relapsed (2)
Xia Jingshu shook her head sadly. She knew exactly how bad her husband’s condition was and ever since the first half of the year, his health had rapidly deteriorated every day. He was only still alive because he had taken the most expensive imported medication around, and this also gave the illusion that he looked healthy when in fact, he was already on the brink of death.
A doctor walked out from the consultation room and he looked at Xia Jingshu, then at Ye Hao before he said, “You must be the patient’s family.”
The doctor stated the obvious. His expression seemed serious and looked a little grim.
Xia Jingshu said, “Yes, I am.”
The doctor continued, “You must be prepared for the worst. The outlook for Ye Snr. doesn’t seem so good. His cancer has already spread across his entire body and his heart is also starting to fail. A heart specialist is performing an emergency consultation at the moment.”
“Is there still hope for him?” Xia Jingshu was so anxious that she gripped the doctor’s hand tightly, her hands trembling in fear.
Her heart also quivered in terror.
The doctor sighed and after some thought, he finally said, “We’ll only know after the other specialists have checked on him. However, based on the current situation, surgery is out of the question, so you have to be prepared for the worst and help him with the paperwork to admit him to the hospital.”
The doctor then went into the emergency room, leaving behind a worried and terrified Xia Jingshu.
Ye Hao was also sad and sorrowful but his feelings were not enough to get him overly emotional.
Several hours later, Ye Snr. was transferred to the best VIP ward available in this hospital. This room was almost 100 square meters and also had two adjacent guest rooms.

The hospital arranged for the doctors to work in shifts, so there was always a doctor in the ward.
Ye Snr. had regained consciousness. His eyes were slightly opened while his face was completely devoid of all color.
The monitor by his bedside showed his current heartbeat, pulse rate, blood pressure, and other data. These stats were all stable; the only issue was that his blood pressure was on the low side.
He was still very weak but because he had been given painkillers, he could not feel any pain. However, once the effects of the painkillers wore off, he would be in extreme pain.
Xia Jingshu gripped her husband’s hand anxiously and cried till her eyes were already swollen.
“Zhiyuan, you must get better, do you understand?” Xia Jingshu said as she wiped her tears from her face.
The doctor quickly motioned for her to stop speaking the moment she started to speak because Ye Snr. had only just come to and was so weak that he couldn’t afford to become too emotional.
Several hours later.
Many members of the Ye family had arrived – Ye Yi and his spouse, Ye Zhe and his new girlfriend, a famous local movie star, Ye Shiyu, and other relatives from the Ye family were all present, so there were more than 10 people in the room.
Ye Snr.’s mother was also present. At the ripe old age of 95, she leaned weakly against her walking stick.
Her swollen eyes clearly reflected her sorrow. Due to her age, she had buried many of her children over the past few years. She felt extremely sorrowful whenever she had to bury her children, and Ye Zhiyuan was her favorite child.
She knew that her son had a terminal disease but she only wanted him to live a little longer. She didn’t expect her child’s disease to relapse even before she had passed on.
Everyone from the Ye family looked extremely grave. They were worried and didn’t know who’d look after their interests after Ye Snr. passed away. Ye Snr. would always given them a generous bonuses while he was alive.
After Ye Snr. passed on, they didn’t know whether Ye Hao, who didn’t grow up in the family nor had a good relationship with them, would treat them well.

The Forgotten Hero
Long ago, in the world of Thyne, the Alliance of the Free Races, a name they had given themselves, summoned a hundred humans from another dimension. Praised as heroes by the people, they rejoiced that they had been able to acquire pure, mana deficient humans that wanted to aid them in their time of need, ignoring the black, archaic slave collars around their necks or the depressed, almost hate-filled expressions that they received when interacting with them. After Ten years of bloody war, the dark races were pushed back deep into their territories. Both sides were near breaking point and desperate to end the war once and for all. In a bargain, the twelve surviving heroes launched a high-risk mission, utilising advanced tactics from their home world to kill the Demon Lord. In exchange, they would be sent home, along with the magically preserved corpses of their comrades, though in truth, they knew that even if they returned, they would never be the same. Legends say that, upon ambushing the Demon Lord in his castle, they finally understood the plight of the world, and in the last act of heroism, sacrificed their lives, sealing him in an eternal prison so his essence would not be able to create another. With the loss of the Demon Lord, and no chance for another to be born, the dark races quickly surrendered and the free races celebrated, honouring the noble sacrifice of the heroes before quickly forgetting about them as they returned to their everyday lives. However, legends are rarely truthful, embellished by the victors in order to earn praise as well as hide the less desirable aspects of their deeds. Trapped in the Demon Lord's throne room inside the Demonic Palace, which even taking a single step on its desecrated grounds is punished by death, two figures remain motionless. They had long run out of insults and threats to trade and now they waited. For what, not even the Gods knew.
