People are writing diaries in Douluo, Bibi Dong is crazy about it

**Chapter 247: Heavy Losses**

While Zhao Ling was busy dealing with the four women who had fled in fear, Yu Yuanzhen, Yu Luomian, and the three elders returned to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family compound in a dejected state.

The sight before them was devastating. Flames engulfed the entire estate, and chaos reigned. Compared to the last attack, this one had been far more destructive, resulting in greater casualties and damage.

Yu Yuanzhen's fists tightened as he surveyed the scene. It was intolerable. Who could have orchestrated such an attack on their family?

He wracked his brain, but no answer emerged. As far as he could recall, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family had never offended a power capable of controlling such strange, powerful birds.

The family had always prided itself on being kind and avoiding unnecessary enmity. If he were to name their enemies, the Demon Suppression Douluo and Spirit Hall were the only plausible suspects. Yet Yu Yuanzhen dismissed them.

The Demon Suppression Douluo, known for his immense strength, had once fought the great priest of Spirit Hall to a draw. If he wished to destroy the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, he could do so effortlessly.

Five years ago, their family had conspired with Tiandou Empire subjects to force Zhao Ling to resign from his royal servant position. Zhao Ling had resigned without retaliating, demonstrating his magnanimity.

Because of this, Yu Yuanzhen had always refrained from antagonizing anyone close to the Demon Suppression Douluo. He limited his actions to discreetly investigating their backgrounds to avenge his family.

As for Spirit Hall, they didn't possess such strange and advanced weapons, making them an unlikely culprit.

Yu Yuanzhen stood silently, lost in thought while delegating the task of assessing the damage to Yu Luomian and the three elders.

About half an hour later, Yu Luomian rushed over, panic etched across his face.

"Brother! Something terrible has happened! Xiaolong's leg was blown off while he was protecting your eldest daughter-in-law. His brain was injured as well, and he's in a coma…"

"What?" Yu Yuanzhen's pupils constricted.

He immediately ordered Yu Luomian to take him to his eldest son.

When Yu Yuanzhen arrived, he found his eldest son unconscious, his leg severed and still bleeding. Beside him knelt his daughter-in-law, tears streaming down her face.

She looked up at Yu Yuanzhen, her sorrowful eyes filled with determination.

"Father, I cannot agree to your request to marry my brother-in-law.

Even though Xiaolong is now… like this, he instinctively protected me during the attack. I can't betray him."

Yu Yuanzhen sighed heavily. "Very well. If that is your wish, I will not force you. I will never bring this matter up again."

He glanced at his son's broken body, his voice faltering. "But Xiaolong… He's not only lost his mind but also his leg. I'm afraid…"

"It doesn't matter, Father," she interjected firmly. "No matter what happens to Xiaolong, I will stay by his side. I will never leave him."

Her words, filled with love and conviction, brought tears to Yu Yuanzhen's eyes.

After a moment of silence, he turned to Yu Luomian.

"Summon Patriarch Ye immediately. If anyone can save Xiaolong, it's him. Hurry!"

Yu Luomian nodded. "Brother, don't worry. We've already sent for him. He should arrive soon."

Yu Yuanzhen exhaled in relief. The Ye family's Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul was renowned for its healing abilities. If anyone could save his son, it was Patriarch Ye.

As he waited, Yu Yuanzhen asked about the casualties.

"How bad is it? How many lives have we lost?"

Yu Luomian's expression grew grave. "More than 120 people are dead, and over 500 are injured to varying degrees.

As for property damage… Well, let's just say our losses are catastrophic."

Yu Yuanzhen clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles cracking.

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family had around 1,700 to 1,800 members, and that was after absorbing two smaller families. Losing nearly a third of their people in one attack was devastating.

The family's glory and dignity had been trampled.

"If I ever find out who is responsible for this…" Yu Yuanzhen growled, his voice shaking with fury. "They will pay in blood.

But…" He hesitated. If the culprit turned out to be a powerhouse like the Demon Suppression Douluo, could he risk the lives of the entire family for vengeance?

Just then, Patriarch Ye arrived. Stunned by the destruction, he asked, "Master Yu, who could you have offended to cause such devastation to your family?"

Yu Yuanzhen sighed, his voice heavy. "I don't know. But please, save my child. If we lose him…"

Patriarch Ye wasted no time. Activating the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul, he unleashed a massive healing wave that blanketed the wounded within hundreds of meters.

The power of the Nine-Hearted Begonia was awe-inspiring. Under its effects, injuries began to heal visibly, and the overall condition of the wounded improved significantly.

However, it could not restore severed limbs. At best, it stopped the bleeding and formed scabs. While remarkable, it lacked the regenerative miracles of legendary soul bone abilities.

Nonetheless, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family's losses were mitigated significantly.

After about ten minutes, Patriarch Ye staggered, nearly collapsing from exhaustion. Even as a Soul Douluo, the immense energy expenditure of such large-scale healing had taken its toll.
