Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Think Clearly, Understand Thoroughly

Zou Tianyu, too, is approaching sixty years old and has held the top position in Binhai City for many years. His presence is no less formidable than that of the elderly.

He raised a kind smile: "Big Brother, since Grandpa is seriously ill, I should come and see him. Don’t you agree?"

"Now that you’ve seen him, hurry up and leave." The old man said coldly, he was Wuya’s eldest son, Yao Sanhong.

"What visitation? It looks more like you want to take advantage of this situation to split the family assets," a woman in her fifties spoke sharply and coldly, "You’d better have no designs on the Yao Family’s property."

Zou Tianyu’s brow furrowed slightly as he gazed at the woman. Fashionably dressed and well-maintained, she was Yao Mengchen’s maternal aunt, Yao Yuelan.

These people were the ones Zou Tianyu had not interacted with for many years, yet he was quite familiar with them. Aside from these two, there was an older man than Yao Yuelan sitting on the sofa smoking silently.

Yao Sanyuan, the second eldest of the Yao Family, was the most ruthless among Wuya’s children. Approaching sixty, he had no wife or concubines and lived alone.

There were also two middle-aged men in their thirties and forties, along with several nurses and a doctor in a white coat.

The older one was Yao Sanhong’s son, and the younger was Yao Yuelan’s son. None of these people gave Zou Tianyu a warm welcome.

All of these individuals, without exception, were Cultivators!

And each one of them was very powerful.

It was precisely because of this they looked down on Zou Tianyu. In their eyes, no matter how high Zou Tianyu’s position, they were not from the same world.

Zou Tianyu was just a mere ant to them.

"Alright, I’m not dead yet." Lying on the bed, the elderly man with white hair, his face flushed red, forcefully said, "Tianyu came to see me. Isn’t that appropriate? He’s here to see me, not you. What are you all doing?"

"Grandpa, please don’t be angry," Zou Tianyu hurried forward, respectfully standing beside Yao Wuya.

Including today, it had been over five years since Zou Tianyu last visited the Yao Family.

The last time he was here was for the old man’s eightieth birthday celebration.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to come, but the people of the Yao Family were unwelcoming, never showing him a friendly face.

The Yao Wuya he remembered, though gray-haired, was still very spirited and energetic. However, the Yao Wuya he saw today was no longer the same.

Now he had suffered a lot, his physique had become frail, his once white hair now lay over a face devoid of color, showing a look of late-life frailty, currently receiving an intravenous drip.

Regardless of their past unpleasantness, at this moment, Zou Tianyu couldn’t help but feel sorrow.

"Tianyu, I apologize on their behalf," Yao Wuya said weakly, "Is Mengchen not here with you?"

"She should arrive soon." Standing by the old man’s bed, Zou Tianyu slightly bent down respectfully, "The girl has brought a young fellow along this time."

"Is it her boyfriend?" Yao Wuya’s lips curved into a smile as he asked.

"I’m not entirely sure about their specific relationship, but the young man is quite capable. He said he would like to check your illness, perhaps he can cure you," Zou Tianyu said reassuringly.

"Mengchen is thoughtful," Yao Wuya’s face showed affection when mentioning Yao Mengchen, "However, my condition is chronic; even specialists have been unable to cure it. It might be difficult for a young fellow."

"We have to try. I believe in miracles in this world," Zou Tianyu said respectfully. "Your life is tough indeed."

As the two exchanged words, the people around them showed nothing but scorn.

Cure an illness?

What a joke!

Yao Wuya’s survival to this day relied solely on IV infusions even though his personal physician, a national-level doctor, had already issued a critical condition notice.

Yao Wuya has, at most, three more days; it is the utmost extent to which we can delay.

The doctor uttering these words is an exemplar of the top tier within domestic ranks.

Hence, Zou Tianyu’s words struck the listeners’ ears as if they were merely jests.

Of course, no one dared interrupt him; as long as Yao Wuya is still alive, he remains the sovereign of the Yao Family, and no one dares to infringe upon his authority.

"Alright, I want to rest for a while, everyone please leave. When Mengchen arrives, call her to see me." After talking for a bit, Yao Wuya seemed very tired and spoke feebly.

"Okay."

Zou Tianyu glanced around at the people present and was the first to walk out.

The rest of the people also exited one by one.

Apart from a few nurses, everyone gathered in the adjacent room.

"As soon as you’ve seen him, shouldn’t you be leaving now?" As soon as she entered, Yao Yuelan gave the order for him to be expelled.

Everyone turned their gaze to Zou Tianyu.

Here, other than that doctor, everyone was a cultivator, with the sole exception of Zou Tianyu, who was an ordinary person.

An oppressive aura emanated from the crowd, pressing towards Zou Tianyu.

His face turned pale, yet he still stepped forward, advancing step by step into the room, and stated firmly:

"The elder has little time left, I just want to accompany him during his last days. Also, there is still hope for the elder."

"Maybe, the guy Mengchen brought back can cure him, and even if he can’t, I harbor no covetous designs over the Yao Family’s properties."

"Even though I, Zou Tianyu, am an ordinary person, I am not a puppet to be manipulated at will. If you insist on forcing me out, you better think it through clearly."

While he spoke, Zou Tianyu no longer had the submissive demeanor he held in front of Yao Wuya; he stood straight, his eyes vividly piercing, and the aura of a leader emanated from him, his words ringing with decisive power.

This hesitated the entire Yao Family.

Eventually, the coercive atmosphere dissipated invisibly, and no one dared to make a move.

This was the first time in many years they had seen Zou Tianyu so staunch; in the past, he would withdraw under their threats of a few words.

But this time, it seemed somewhat different.

After much thought, no one made a move; although Zou Tianyu was an ordinary man, his status was clear. If he were to file a document, appealing to the higher echelons of Huaxia, their pressure could be something Yao Family might not withstand.

Additionally, if Zou Tianyu were to sow discord among the siblings, without Yao Wuya, this family could very likely disintegrate.

Zou Tianyu was right; they indeed needed to think carefully before taking action against him.

No one dared to expel him again, but that did not mean they would show him any kindness.

Yao Sanhong said, "You better not harbor any improper thoughts towards the Yao Family, or else you should know the consequences."

Yao Yuelan spoke in an unfriendly tone: "My elder brother is right, if you covet the Yao Family’s assets, you’d better think it over."

"By the way, the old man’s illness is almost incurable, there’s no need for the person you’re fetching to come; not just anyone is entitled to see someone like the elder."

"Auntie, huh, grandpa hasn’t passed away yet, it’s not up to you to decide who he can or cannot see." Yong Yuelan’s words had barely fallen when suddenly a cold voice echoed in everyone’s ears.

Everyone looked towards the source, only to see a striking figure at the doorway, unknown when she appeared. She had a tall stature, exceedingly beautiful features, and her eyes that held a hint of coldness yet were undeniably alluring, gazed at Yao Yuelan without a trace of emotion.
