Samsara Online Chapter 112 Gods fall (1)

When Nangong Wentian heard the words of the Nangong Family's most powerful hope for healing and recovery, he felt his legs weakening for a moment. He simply could not understand who could be so cruel as to do such stuff.
"Someone call Luo Zang here. I need to see the face of the person who dared to cripple my son. I don't care if the other side is an Esper or not, I will definitely make him pay HUNDREDS OF TIMES THE PRICE!", roared Nangong Wentian.
A 50 years old woman standing next to Nangong Wentian cried inconsolably as if a part of her soul had been torn from her body. This woman was the mother of Nangong Lei and Nangong Chen, as well as Nangong Wentian's wife; Yao Ruolan.
Yao Ruolan was the younger sister of the current Patriarch of the Yao Family. In the past, to combine forces and protect each other, the Yao and Nangong Families forged an alliance in marriage. The previous Patriarchs of both families had decided to engage Yao Ruolan and Nangong Wentian when they were both still babies.
Nangong Wentian nodded and promised, "Ruolan, I swear by the honor my Nangong family has forged for centuries! I will definitely see to it that the culprit suffers a miserable death!"
After ten minutes, a man of about 35 years old came through the bedroom door. The man was slender as a bamboo stick and looked so weak that it seemed his body would be blown away at any moment.
Nangong Wentian did not wait for the man to say a word and immediately expressed his purpose: "Luo Zang, I need you to explore my son's memory to find the person responsible for all this."
First, Luo Zang was surprised by Nangong Wentian's hoarse and angry voice. This was not the first time he had seen the Patriarch of the Nangong Family angry. In the past, a powerful family in Beijing had been decimated by him in a burst of rage. It is well known to all that the core members of the Nangong Family tend to have an unfriendly temperament.
However, when Luo Zang approached the bed in which Nangong Chen was lying, he could not help but inhale cold air, "Who can do such an inhumane act", Luo Zang said unconsciously.
When he realized that everyone was looking at him, Luo Zang quickly sat cross-legged on the floor and closed his eyes. Everyone in the room had serious expressions as they waited somewhat impatiently for the results.
A few seconds later, a small figure almost transparent emerged from Luo Zang's body and in a flash entered the forehead of the unconscious Nangong Chen.
Approximately twenty minutes later, the small figure came out of Nangong Chen's body. But unlike the initial transparent color, it was now dyed in all kinds of colors; blue, red, green, magenta, etc.
The small figure flew towards Nangong Wentian and was caught by his hands. Nangong Wentian put some elemental force into his hand and destroyed the small colorful figure.
Soon, the room was filled with a strange aura and everyone found themselves in a different location. They saw the car race on the Laoshan Highway, saw Nangong Chen's Lamborghini being hit by a silver Porsche and later by a jet-black Ferrari.
They also saw how a masked person forced Nangong Chen to fall off the cliff, then saw that same figure appear in front of Nangong Chen once more until everything went completely black. The next thing they saw was how various masked people were torturing Nangong Chen, as well as the screams of pain and supplications of the last one.
The next second, they met again in Nangong Chen's room, as if nothing had happened. The strange and colorful aura had also completely disappeared.
"What the hell is this shit!" Yao Ruolan could not contain herself. She rushed towards Luo Zang who was still in the process of standing up and a flame of fire shone in her eyes momentarily.
When Luo Zang saw the Patriarch's wife charging towards him, he was scared and unconsciously protected himself. Fortunately for him, Yao Ruolan was quickly stopped by the voice of her other son.
"Mother, please wait a moment," Nangong Lei had been silent from the beginning and never said a word. Only now did he finally join in the conversation.
Yao Ruolan stopped her steps and looked at Nangong Lei in anticipation. She quickly ran to her eldest son and held on to his arm tightly while practically begging: "Lei'er, did you discover something? You were always a special person. I'm sure you found the bastards who did this to your little brother."
Nangong Lei's eyes were extremely cold, like a blade forged from frozen ice over thousands of years. Only when he looked at his mother did him eyes soften for a split second before returning to normal.
"No. It is impossible to find the responsible ones. The person who did this is undoubtedly extremely smart and careful. The culprit undoubtedly knew of the existence of the Record Espers; therefore, this person covered his face. Record Espers have a unique weakness; they cannot transmit voices... Therefore, a simple mask will be enough. What's more, I wanted to find some evidence on the security cameras at the race site, but all the cameras were destroyed by a high voltage." Nangong Chen's last words were spoken as he looked at Nangong Chen.
Everyone understood that the person who destroyed the cameras was Nangong Chen. This left them somewhat impotent.
Hope in the eyes of Yao Ruolan and even in the eyes of Nangong Wentian, began to disappear like dying fathoms of fire on a stormy night. However, Nangong Lei suddenly changed the topic:
"Father, did Elder Gu say anything about my marriage with Gu Qianxue?"
The lightning and fire attribute that runs through the bodies of the Nangong and Yao Family generally makes such users extremely bad moods. Therefore, when Yao Ruolan heard her son talking about something irrelevant when his brother was bedridden, crippled for life; she was furious. But before she could say anything, Nangong Wentian talked:
"That old man named Gu keeps saying that his daughter is still young. That girl is already 18 years old, how she's young?*Bufido*, why are you asking that right now?"
"Well, I found something interesting. As Miss Gu's future husband I naturally care about her safety, so I was looking for her for several days. It was somewhat difficult since Elder Gu hides his daughter's whereabouts very well, but... I finally found her..." Nangong Lei suddenly laughed and continued, "Do you know where she is right now, father?"
Nangong Wentian rolled his eyes. Why on earth would he know where that little girl was? It was none of his business anyway. As if he was waiting for such an answer, Nangong Lei slowly approached the bed where his little brother was resting and gently stroked his hair as he said:
"Miss Gu is currently in Shanghai."
The face of everyone in the room changed slightly. But Nangong Lei half-closed his eyes and continued:
"The most interesting thing is that I couldn't really find Espers registered by the government in the NSA protecting her... Apparently, she is living alone with a couple of problem siblings named Xie."
"But that's not all... A few hours before little Chen had an accident, he was defeated in a friendly basketball game in the Shanghai University... Apparently, he also had a dispute with a guy named Xie Feng..." Nangong Lei looked at his father with indifference and said: "Does that sound familiar?"
"Xie Feng? Isn't that brat the annoying boy who continued to seek trouble from the authorities in the past after his adoptive father was killed?" Nangong Wentian frowned.
"So far these are only conclusions on my part... But at least it is a small clue... We will see," murmured Nangong Lei

While the Nangong Family was in chaos, sadness, anger, and hatred; the other four Big Families were in chaos trying to get information about what happened. After all, depending on what happens, the whole situation in China could change.
On the other hand, Xie Feng had a fabulous morning. If there was one thing he was unhappy with, it was that he could not take any pleasure in it, as he and the two beauties were late for class.
After finishing his classes and having lunch at a restaurant near the university like every day, Xie Feng lay down on his bed and connected to Samsara Online.

Although less than a day had passed, Xie Feng felt that an eternity had passed since he had last connected to the game. After looking around, he remembered that he was still on the map of some monsters called Roaring Cow of level 17.
"Nice to hear your voice again, big sister system!" Xie Feng laughed as he pulled out a teleportation scroll. After canalizing for a few seconds, Xie Feng turned into a ray of light and disappeared from the place where he had been before.
