It was already midnight. What was Ling Yun going out to do? To treat Cui Lao, of course.
Cui Lao might be mysterious, but he had been good to Ling Yun ever since he appeared. He didn't ask for anything in return. Whatever Ling Yun said, Cui Lao would never refute him. Everything was up to Ling Yun.
Even though Cui Lao hadn't revealed his identity and origin, Ling Yun was a smart person. He could tell that Cui Lao loved and protected him like an elder. Therefore, he would do his best to treat Cui Lao's illness.
Ling Yun drove away from the Luxurious Hot Springs Manor and returned to Mansion Number One in about twenty minutes.
"Ah … Why are the gates open so late at night …"
Ling Yun saw that the gates of Mansion Number One were wide open. He knew that Cui Lao and Dugu Mo were masters who were half a step into the Xiantian Realm. To them, this gate was just a decoration. It made no difference whether it was closed or not.
To save him the trouble, Ling Yun drove the car directly into the courtyard. Before he could open the car door, Little White was already waiting for Ling Yun to get out of the car.
Ling Yun smiled as he got out of the car. He hugged Little White's soft fox body in his arms and stroked her smooth fur. "Did you miss me?"
Little White's pair of black fox eyes stared at Ling Yun's face. Its eyes were filled with grievance and grief. Its huge fox body snuggled in Ling Yun's arms, wriggling and squirming, but it refused to come down.
Ling Yun took the opportunity to observe Little White's progress. He realized that Little White's cultivation speed was shocking. She would be able to transform in less than three days. He couldn't help but remind Little White through telepathy, "Little White, you can't go through the tribulation in the city. It'll cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. Therefore, slow down your cultivation speed for the next few days. I'll bring you out to sea in three days."
Little White was a nine-tailed celestial fox with extraordinary intelligence. She knew what was going on. Therefore, she nodded obediently with a foxy smile in her eyes.
At this time, Cui Lao and Dugu Mo had already arrived in front of Ling Yun. Cui Lao was very happy to see Ling Yun. He chuckled and said, "Little … Little fella, my body recovers very quickly. If you're busy, you don't have to come over every day to treat me …" Out of decades of habit and his special love for Ling Yun, Cui Lao couldn't help but want to call Ling Yun Young Master.
When Cui Lao thought about Grandfather Ling coming to Qingshui, he couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. Young Master Ling Yun was about to reunite with the Ling Family. How touching would that scene be?
"Cui Lao, this is what I should do. Moreover, it's a small matter. Since it's a treatment, it should be done as soon as possible …" Ling Yun smiled faintly.
"Ling Yun, that … Can I discuss something with you?" Dugu Mo also smiled awkwardly.
Seeing that Dugu Mo rarely made such an expression, Ling Yun looked at him strangely and became even more cautious. He chuckled. "What is it? Tell me! "
Dugu Mo's handsome eyes kept staring at Ling Yun's left hand. With a face full of anticipation, he said, "Ling Yun, can you lend me that sword of yours to play with?"
Ling Yun was shocked when he heard that. Indeed, nothing good came out of it. Du Gumo was eyeing his Dragon Vein Sword. He immediately shook his head like a rattle drum.
"No, definitely not! This is the only sword I have … "
Dugu Mo loved swords as much as his life. When he saw Ling Yun's Dragon Vein Sword, his heart was already itching. It wasn't easy for him to ask Ling Yun until now. Now that Ling Yun rejected him, his handsome face became uglier than if he had eaten a hundred kilograms of Chinese goldthread.
"Can't you just let me play with it for two days? I'm not asking for it from you … "
Ling Yun chuckled. "Who knows if you will take my sword and run away? You don't even have anything to pawn here …"
Dugu Mo swore to the heavens, "Ling Yun, I swear that I will never run away with your sword. Just do me a favor and let me play with it …"
Ling Yun still shook his head to express his disbelief. No matter how Dugu Mo pestered him, he refused to budge.
Afterward, Cui Lao felt that Dugu Mo was truly pitiful. He chuckled and said to Ling Yun, "Little chap, Dugu Mo comes from a family that uses swords. That sword of yours is indeed something that he covets. Why don't you take it out and let him play with it for a while? You can keep it when you leave.
Of course, Ling Yun knew that Dugu Mo wouldn't run away. He still had the dragon saliva with him. If Dugu Mo were to run away for a sword, it would be like picking up a sesame seed but losing a watermelon. He also felt that he had teased Dugu Mo enough. Hence, he chuckled and said, "Alright, since Cui Lao is pleading for you, I'll lend it to you for two days. However, after two days, I still have a use for it. You have to return it to me!"
Hearing that, Dugu Mo was overjoyed. He hurriedly nodded his head and said, "Alright, two days it is. Hehe, give it to me quickly …"
Ling Yun chided him jokingly, "Really, you only know how to use a sword. You don't even know how to thank Cui Lao!" As he spoke, he opened his left hand. The Dragon Vein Sword instantly appeared in his hand. A cold light flashed, and the sword aura was dense.
"For you!" Ling Yun casually threw it into Dugu Mo's hands.
Dugu Mo received the sword hilt. He first thanked Cui Lao, then looked at it admiringly for a long time. Suddenly, he was stunned. "Where's the scabbard? Give me the scabbard too … "
Ling Yun chuckled. "There's no scabbard. Swords are used to kill. It's so troublesome to have a scabbard …"
With that, he no longer cared about Dugu Mo. He said to Cui Lao, "Cui Lao, let him play here alone. Let's enter the house. I'll treat you."
Now that Ling Yun had reached the early stages of Physique Tempering Stage Six, the spiritual energy in his body was boundless. Using the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot was a piece of cake for him. This time, the treatment was completed in half an hour.
"Cui Lao, your old injury is already eighty percent healed. At this speed, you should be able to fully recover by the end of this month. By then, you should be able to advance to the Xiantian Realm and reach the next level."
Ling Yun pulled out the nine golden needles and smiled at Cui Lao.
Cui Lao nodded his head in satisfaction. In his heart, however, he was thinking about Ling Lie, Ling Xiao, and other important members of the Ling Family who were severely injured and had stagnated in their realms. He felt that the declining Ling Family could really be saved this time!
"Kid, we've known each other for three days. Don't you want to know my background?" Cui Lao smiled as he looked at Ling Yun and probed.
Ling Yun laughed. "Cui Lao, of course I want to know your background. However, I have to wait for Cui Lao to tell me. If you're not willing to tell me, it's useless even if I ask. Therefore, it's better not to ask."
Cui Lao was stunned. He couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. "Sigh … You're really carefree. Alright, it's too late now. I'll tell you in two days!"
Old Master Ling Lie would be here in two days. A meeting between grandfather and grandson would definitely be better than a thousand words that Cui Lao could say. Therefore, he forcefully controlled himself.
Ling Yun only smiled slightly and stood up to bid farewell to Cui Lao respectfully. He went to the courtyard and played with Dugu Mo for a while before returning to the Luxurious Mountain Villa.
Tie Xiaohu didn't come to Mansion Number One to cultivate that night. Ling Yun knew that Tie Xiaohu must be extremely busy right now.
When he returned to Lin Menghan's place, Ling Yun naturally didn't let her off. The two of them had a sweet and affectionate night. He tormented Lin Menghan all the way until four in the morning. Only when Lin Menghan begged for mercy did he let her off.
The next morning, Ling Yun woke up early and began his unshakable cultivation. His Stellar Condensation Technique had improved again.
When the sun was high up in the sky, Ling Yun drove out to meet Tang Meng. The two of them didn't go anywhere else. They just talked in the car.
Tang Meng wanted to tell Ling Yun about his grand plan, but Ling Yun stopped him with a wave of his hand.
"Put those grand plans of yours aside for now. Deal with my matters today," Ling Yun said lightly.
Tang Meng was stunned. "Big Brother Yun, what other matters do you have?"
Ling Yun said seriously, "First, there are two mansions. One for your Big Sister Rou and the other for Liu Li. They have to be done as soon as possible …"
Tang Meng scratched his head in confusion. "Big Brother Yun, I can understand buying a mansion for Big Sister Rou, but for Liu Li, you've already done so much for her family. There's no need for us to buy a mansion for her family, right?"
Ling Yun smiled as he shook his head. "You don't understand. If I ask you to buy one, just buy it. And it has to be done as soon as possible. Buy one that's ready-made and doesn't need to be renovated. Pick the good ones. Do you understand?"
Ling Yun was a great benefactor to Liu Li's family. Similarly, no one knew that Liu Li's family was also a great benefactor to Ling Yun.
"As for the loan, I've already thought about it. You can do whatever you want. You don't have to ask me about it." Ling Yun turned to Tang Meng and said, "As for the loan, I've already thought about it.
"We'll talk about other things in the future. However, there are two things that you have to do as soon as possible!"
Tang Meng nodded hurriedly. "Big Brother Yun, I'm listening. Just tell me."
"The first thing is what I told you last time. Get me a good boat. I'm going to Turtle Island this Friday. You have to get it ready within three days. I'll set off from Qingshui Wharf this Friday," Ling Yun said.
"As for the second thing, I want you to use all your connections in Qingshui City to secretly get Little White's identity!"
"This is very important, understand?"
Tang Meng nodded seriously when he heard the first thing. However, he was stunned when Ling Yun said the second thing.
"Big Brother Yun … Little White?" Tang Meng asked blankly. What identity did a fox need?
"Yes, Little White!" Ling Yun chuckled.
Tang Meng touched the layer of fine hair that had just grown on his head. "Big Brother Yun, isn't Little White a fox? I've never heard of giving foxes an identity … "
"Idiot, foxes don't need an identity, but Little White is about to become a human!" Ling Yun gave Tang Meng a knock on the head.
"What?"
Little White becoming a human? When Tang Meng heard this, he stumbled and his jaw dropped! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for me at Qidian (). Your support is my greatest motivation.) (To be continued.)
