Villa Number One occupied a total area of 4,800 square meters. The villa itself was more than 1,300 square meters, 40 meters long and 30 meters wide. It had two floors and a height of about 10 meters.
The largest area on the first floor was, of course, the living room. Just the living room alone was about 400 square meters. The other areas were naturally a spacious kitchen, a bright dining room, a luxurious bathroom, a study, a gym, and many guest rooms for the guests.
Ling Yun's study and gym were located on either side of the living room, at the southwest and southeast corners of the first floor. The study was huge, with an area of more than 100 square meters. As for the gym, it was even bigger, with an area of more than 200 square meters.
The indoor swimming pool was not designed on the first floor, but on the second floor of the villa. It was located in the southeast corner facing the sun, directly above the gym on the first floor. There was a dedicated staircase from the gym that led directly to the swimming pool on the second floor.
The swimming pool was not small either. It was about 200 square meters, 15 meters long and 10 meters wide. Even ten people could swim in it together without feeling crowded.
This design was purely for the owner of the villa to relax and enjoy himself when he was tired.
Imagine, the owner of the villa waking up in the morning, working out for an hour or two in the gym, and then going to the swimming pool on the second floor to swim. What kind of enjoyment would that be?
Of course, if you felt that the indoor swimming pool was too small for you to swim to your heart's content, you could directly go outside. The gourd-shaped swimming pool outside was more than 400 square meters. It was simply a clear lake that reflected the flowers, trees, blue sky, and white clouds. You could swim however you wanted and would definitely be able to enjoy yourself.
On the first floor of the villa, other than the kitchen, dining room, study, gym, and the necessary bathroom, there were also a few guest rooms for the guests. Each room was of different sizes, but the smallest one was at least 50 square meters. It was decorated elegantly.
Obviously, the designer of the villa was very considerate of the owner. After all, a person who could spend tens of millions to buy such a villa, and a friend or guest who was allowed to stay in their home, would not be an ordinary person.
As for the second floor of the villa, other than the largest bedroom used by the owner, the rest of the rooms were basically secondary bedrooms. They could be used by Ling Yun's family or as guest rooms. Of course, this was all up to Ling Yun.
The entire villa was equipped with a perfect water treatment system, central air conditioning system, and floor heating system. The design was in the style of the Chinese countryside.
This kind of design was primitive and simple, rough and casual. It was a concept of freedom and return to nature. It could satisfy the psychological needs of the residents to return to nature.
It was a kind of personal experience, the tranquility and leisure that people felt from home, working at sunrise and resting at sunset.
The simple lines and unadorned aura all exuded the natural smell of sunlight, grass, and dewdrops. It was as if he could pick it up casually without any pretentiousness.
To be honest, the villa was too big, and Ling Yun had given Tang Meng too little time. From the time Tang Meng started looking for a renovation company to the time the villa was seized, only five days had passed. Hence, the renovation of the villa was still in its infancy. There were still many details that needed to be perfected.
However, even so, Ling Yun was very satisfied with Cui Lao's visit to the villa.
The doors, windows, and carpets were luxurious, the furniture and lighting were comfortable and luxurious, and the fabric and floral art were romantic and warm. The interior decoration style of the villa was perfectly integrated with the layout of the outdoor garden, giving people a sense of tranquility and nature.
"Hmm … not bad, not bad indeed!" Ling Yun scanned his living room and nodded his head in satisfaction. He then turned around and called Tang Meng over.
"Find a guest room for me and Cui Lao …" Ever since Ling Yun bought Mansion Number One, he had only been going around the living room and kitchen. He was not as familiar with the place as Tang Meng.
Tang Meng brought Ling Yun and Cui Lao to a guest room before he tactfully retreated to watch Tie Xiaohu drain the big black dog's blood.
"Seems like you're doing pretty well for yourself to be living in such a nice villa …" Cui Lao teased Ling Yun after Tang Meng left the villa. He kept looking around after he entered the villa.
Ling Yun smiled faintly. "I've embarrassed myself in front of Cui Lao. It's just a place to stay. No matter how big the house is, the sleeping space is only three feet wide. To be honest, I bought this place mainly for cultivation, lest someone disturbs me."
Cui Lao's gaze was fixed on Ling Yun's eyes as he spoke. He realized that Ling Yun's gaze was calm and leisurely. He didn't have the arrogance of a poor man who suddenly became rich, nor did he have the extravagance of a rich man. Cui Lao couldn't help but nod his head in approval.
Ling Yun still had to make talismans. Time was of the essence, so he quickly got to the point. "Cui Lao, if I'm not wrong, you must have suffered a serious internal injury a long time ago, which damaged your energy center and meridians. After a long period of careful recuperation, your injuries have healed, but the damage to your energy center and meridians has left a hidden danger. This has greatly affected your cultivation, right?"
"Young … young fellow, which sect are you from? Even an ordinary Xiantian Realm expert wouldn't be able to detect the hidden injury in my body. How did you see through it at such a young age? "Cui Lao asked in shock.
"The Immortal Physician Sect!" Ling Yun's answer was straightforward. He had already decided that no matter who asked him, he would say that he was from the Immortal Physician Sect.
"I've heard of the Miracle Physician Valley, but the Immortal Physician Sect …" Cui Lao frowned slightly. He racked his brains for a long time, but he couldn't remember where he had heard of such a sect.
Ling Yun couldn't help but smile as he looked at Cui Lao's contemplative expression. "Cui Lao, I still have to prepare some things this afternoon. How about letting me treat your injury first?"
"This is a hidden injury that I've had for nearly twenty years. You …" Cui Lao's expression was rather hesitant, but there was a trace of nervousness and anticipation in his eyes.
Cui Lao wasn't afraid that Ling Yun couldn't treat him. He had been suffering from the hidden injury for eighteen years, and he had used all the methods he could think of. This hidden injury no longer affected his lifespan, but it affected his cultivation. Cui Lao already knew that he could no longer advance to the Xiantian Realm, so he had already accepted his fate.
Moreover, Ling Lie had saved Cui Lao's life. Ling Yun was the descendant of the Ling Family and Ling Lie's biological grandson. Cui Lao wouldn't have any complaints even if Ling Yun treated him badly or even killed him.
Cui Lao was anxious because he thought that if Ling Yun could treat his injury, then wouldn't the hidden injuries of Ling Lie, Ling Xiao, and the other important members of the Ling Family be cured?
Especially Ling Yun's father, Ling Xiao. The Third Young Master was gifted by the heavens. If his hidden injury was cured, wouldn't his cultivation improve by leaps and bounds? Wouldn't he be able to return to his peak in no time?
At this thought, Cui Lao's body trembled with excitement. He felt that the Ling Family's restoration to its former glory depended entirely on Ling Yun!
Ling Yun looked at Cui Lao strangely before smiling. "Since I can see through it, I'm naturally confident in treating you. However, you've been injured for so long, and a single treatment is obviously impossible. It'll take about half a month for a complete recovery …"
Cui Lao was overjoyed when he heard that. He nodded excitedly. "Alright! Then, what should I do now? "
Ling Yun smiled. "You just need to take off your shirt and adjust your breathing according to your usual meditative posture."
Cui Lao followed Ling Yun's instructions and took off his shirt. He sat cross-legged on the bed and began to adjust his breathing with his eyes closed.
Ling Yun took out nine golden needles and began to perform the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot on Cui Lao. He performed it a total of nine times, a total of eighty-one needles. Every time he performed a needle, he injected a stream of spiritual energy into Cui Lao's body.
The acupoints, meridians, and energy center weren't organs of the human body, nor were they human tissues. From a clinical perspective, these things couldn't be found.
If a cultivator had to explain it vividly, if there was Qi in the body of a cultivator, the Qi would be like water, and the acupoints would be like wells. The water would flow through the wells and form fixed channels, which were called meridians. The Dantian was the place where all the main meridians and eight extra-meridians converged. It was the most important and largest well.
Cui Lao's internal injury had caused some of his acupoints to dry up or some of his meridians to wither. As a result, his energy center could no longer expand and strengthen. As a result, when his internal energy passed through these withered meridians or reached his energy center, it could only allow so much internal energy to pass through. Thus, no matter how profound and pure Cui Lao's cultivation was, the amount of power he could unleash was limited, let alone break through to the Xiantian Realm.
What Ling Yun needed to do now was to use the magical acupuncture technique of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot and the spiritual energy in his body to restore Cui Lao's injured energy center, acupoints, and meridians to their original state!
Of course, if luck was on his side and Cui Lao's natural endowments were good, Cui Lao could immediately enter the Xiantian Realm after Ling Yun's treatment.
The entire treatment process lasted for an hour. After Ling Yun performed the last Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot, he said to Cui Lao, who was still cultivating with his eyes closed, "Cui Lao, the effect of this first treatment is the strongest. You still need to meditate for a while more. I'll come over to remove the needles, and you can walk after that."
Ling Yun didn't wait for Cui Lao to reply. He left the guest room and returned to the living room.
"Phew … The pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine is too scary. I almost ran out of spiritual energy!" Ling Yun sighed as he sat on the sofa in the living room and started to absorb spiritual energy again.
Even though Ling Yun's body contained a large amount of spiritual energy, he still used up ninety percent of it after treating Cui Lao.
"Tie Xiaohu, did you buy the talisman paper and medicinal herbs that I asked you to prepare?" Ling Yun asked Tie Xiaohu after he had recovered thirty percent of his spiritual energy.
Last Sunday, before Ling Yun went down to the crater, he had made thousands of talismans in one go. He had used up almost all of the yellow, cinnabar, top-grade medicinal herbs, and so on. He had instructed Tie Xiaohu to buy another batch of talisman making materials.
"I bought them for you on Monday. They're all in the storage room!" Tie Xiaohu chuckled.
Ling Yun asked Tie Xiaohu to take out all the materials and started to make new talisman paper and ink.
The three of them busied themselves until three thirty in the afternoon before Ling Yun started to draw his first talisman.
He could only use an ordinary weasel's hair brush. Since no one was injured, he couldn't test the effects of the Healing Talismans. Therefore, Ling Yun continued to draw the Fire Talisman.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh." Ling Yun flew out of the villa with the newly drawn Fire Talisman. At the same time, he took out another Fire Talisman drawn with the Emperor Brush from his spatial ring.
Ling Yun held the two Fire Talismans in both his hands and threw them out at the same time. Then, he shouted, "Appear!"
"Boom boom!" The two balls of flames exploded at the same time!
"F * ck … this …"
Ling Yun stared at the flames formed by the Fire Talisman that he had just drawn. He was so shocked that his jaw dropped and his face was filled with excitement! (To be continued.
