Chapter 361: Establishing Power in Qingshui (10) Ling Yun’s Charm!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The entire group of renovators had been livid at the vicious poison expert; they cursed and swore at him while jumping and gnashing their teeth in hatred.

Ling Yun laughed. “That’s enough. There’s no need to curse anymore, I’ve already taken vengeance on your behalf. Since he’s already blind in both eyes, his days are numbered!”

Worker Xu stared at the dark green Gu larvae in Ling Yun’s hand, and the expression in his eyes revealed his shock and fear. He exclaimed vehemently, “D*mn! I didn’t expect that person to be so vicious. Little Brother Ling Yun, thank you so much for what you’ve done today. If it wasn’t for you coming over to rescue us, we would’ve been killed by that evil man!”

Ling Yun shook his head and smiled before adding casually, “There’s no need to thank me, Worker Xu. After all, this matter arose because of me, and since you were all victims of an undeserved catastrophe, I’m obligated to rescue you all. Come, let me first force the worms out of your bodies before resuming our conversation!”

Worker Xu stood up, and a young renovator took his seat. Ling Yun forced the Gu worms out of their bodies one by one. He killed all of the worms on the spot as a precaution against any trouble in the future.

By the time Ling Yun forced the Gu worm out of the final renovator’s body, the poison expert, who had escaped hastily from Qingshui City, had vomited blood again in his comatose state. He wasn’t expected to live beyond the next two days!

After he treated the crowd, Ling Yun — on the pretext of leaving the room to wash his hands — found a secret place where he used a Fire Talisman to cremate the carcasses of the seven Gu worms in his hands before returning to the room.

When he returned to the house, Ling Yun was already clutching bundles of hundred-yuan bills in both hands, and he put two hundred thousand on the table. He said to Worker Xu, who looked stunned, “Worker Xu, you all nearly lost your lives because of me. As for this little sum of money, you may treat it as a small gesture from me and distribute it amongst your brothers!”

“This... This — Little Brother Ling Yun, you can’t do this! How can we accept this money?” Worker Xu frantically stuffed the money into Ling Yun’s hands.

Ling Yun had hurried over in the middle of the night, and after saving everyone’s lives, he was even giving them money — and such a huge sum in one go!

Cui Lao and Dugu Mo couldn’t understand Ling Yun at this point in time. During the encounter with the group of Xiangxi people previously, they had witnessed Ling Yun’s hatred towards them and had inwardly affirmed that Ling Yun was truly the devil king he claimed to be. However, how was it possible that he had transformed so quickly into a living saint who was concerned about rescuing people from their calamities?

Since Ling Yun had already taken the money out, he didn’t intend to keep it. He gave a dismissive wave and laughed. “Worker Xu, you must accept this money since it includes the remuneration for you and the other workers who helped me renovate the clinic. Don’t you want to be paid?”

Worker Xu exclaimed in astonishment, “But, but the clinic has been wrecked again! Moreover, the renovation fees were set at thirty thousand right from the beginning, so there’s no need to pay so much!”

“Additionally, you hurried here in the middle of the night just to save the seven of us. If you still insist on giving us money, how can we think of accepting it?”

Worker Xu had given a well-reasoned argument, and his face was flushed with earnestness. Left speechless at his words, Ling Yun could only turn his head and give Tang Meng a look.

This was Tang Meng’s expertise. He laughed and walked over to pat Worker Xu on the shoulder, saying, “I say, Worker Xu, don’t reject his gesture. There aren’t many people whom Big Brother Yun would offer money to, so I think you should just accept it!”

“Moreover, Big Brother Yun’s clinic has been wrecked by those people and requires another round of renovation. I advise you all not to search for other assignments this month and have a good rest for two days to fully recuperate before renovating Big Brother Yun’s clinic. What do you think?”

Worker Xu nodded his head hastily. “Of course, that’s definitely our assignment. Don’t worry, we won’t need anyone to supervise us and vouch that we’ll do our best to renovate it so that it’ll be even better than the first time! But, but there’s no need to pay us so much!”

The renovators had been coveting the twenty bundles of hundred-yuan bills. However, they were honest people and shook their heads, explicitly declining the offer in a rattled manner.

Ling Yun gave a faint smile. “Alright, Worker Xu, this matter has been settled. Anyway, you should all be familiar with the work since you’ve already renovated the clinic before. I’ll entrust you with the task of renovating the clinic. There’s no need to rush the assignment as long as it can be completed within the month. I’ll compute your wages after the work has been completed!”

Since he had already disbursed two hundred thousand, Ling Yun didn’t intend to scrimp on wages. It was better to see a good deed to completion!

“This...” Worker Xu stared speechless at Ling Yun for a long time and turned to look at his fellow workers. The expression in their eyes conveyed their disbelief, shock, agitation, and gratitude. It seemed too good to be true that such a huge pie would fall on their heads.

Tang Meng laughed. “Why are you still hesitating? Worker Xu, accept it, we’re leaving!”

Worker Xu threw the money on the table and gripped Ling Yun’s hands. Visibly agitated, he exclaimed, “Little Brother Ling Yun, don’t worry, give me half a month, no, give me ten days, and I guarantee that your clinic will be well-renovated and able to commence its operations!”

“Such a good man...”

“He’s really a living saint...”

“We’ve encountered a good man...”

The other renovators were already gushing in praise of Ling Yun as they were inexplicably moved by his actions. They felt as though there was an infinite amount of energy within them, and they insisted on doing a good job renovating Ling Yun’s clinic!

Our young master from the Ling Family is really... Cui Lao approved of Ling Yun and was uplifted by his actions. Ling Yun had moved him deeply within such a short time!

Of course, Cui Lao had been following Grandpa Ling for so many years and had seen their vast wealth. The amount of money that Ling Yun distributed thus far could only be considered as a nominal sum.

Cui Lao was astounded by Ling Yun’s amazing acupuncture techniques, his fearlessness of the Gu poisoned bodies, the relaxed demonstration performed with his wrists, as well as the unique charm he exuded!

Ling Yun would always excel at any task and would win the admiration of others around him; whether it was killing or rescuing, it was a superb and effortless transition from one task to another!

Dugu Mo had witnessed Ling Yun’s medical skills before. However, the earlier situations had warranted him using the Healing Talismans to treat external injuries, so Dugu Mo had never seen Ling Yun demonstrating his usage of the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot. Now that he had witnessed this amazing acupuncture technique, he silently praised Ling Yun for his remarkable skills from the Immortal Physician Sect!

Could it be truly life-saving?

Ling Yun smiled at the excited Worker Xu and said, “Worker Xu, since you’ve said so, I should be able to entrust my clinic to you?”

Worker Xu nodded his head vigorously. “Rest assured, now that I sense we’re physically fine, we don’t need to take a break. We’ll go to your clinic first thing in the morning. We’ll eat and stay there, and I can guarantee that you’ll be able to commence operations after the tenth day!”

In Worker Xu’s eyes, Ling Yun was no longer his employer but a benefactor who had saved his life and given him money. To these honest people who hailed from the villages, such a person was deserving of their total allegiance.

Ling Yun smiled and cupped his fists to bid them farewell. Then, he led Tang Meng and the rest of his group outside, where they entered their vehicle and headed towards the rental house.

While he was in the vehicle, Ling Yun was hugging Little White indulgently and stroking her satiny foxy fur. He turned to Cui Lao and laughed. “Cui Lao, I might have to participate in a fierce battle that could be life-threatening over the next few days. Are you here to help me, help me, or help me?”

When Cui Lao heard him, he was so infuriated that he nearly slid beneath the vehicle seat. Staring at Ling Yun, he teased him with a partially amused and annoyed tone. “Kid, did you give me other alternatives to choose from? Of course, I’ll help you!”

Cui Lao had already done his research. The purpose of the Sun Family’s invasion into Qingshui City this time around was to deal with Ling Yun. As it would undoubtedly be a fierce battle, Cui Lao would definitely help Ling Yun even without the latter’s request for assistance.

Ling Yun had already seen through Cui Lao’s antics. He had appeared out of the blue with an evidently obstinate unwillingness to be dismissed. Thus, Ling Yun had been joking around with Cui Lao.

Regardless of the person’s origins, Ling Yun would gladly accept him as long as he was fighting on his side!

It was needless to say whose side Dugu Mo was standing on. However, it would be a waste if Ling Yun didn’t make use of the super bodyguard, whose services he had secured with an extravagant feast.

The four of them had returned to the rental house rather quickly. Without opening the door, Ling Yun grabbed Tang Meng’s arm and leaped directly into the courtyard. Cui Lao and Dugu Mo didn’t even need Ling Yun to call them over; they flew into the courtyard and joined them in the living room.

Ling Yun sat down on the sofa in a satisfied manner. He handed his phone to Tang Meng to recharge its battery. Catching sight of his shiny bald head, Ling Yun teased him, saying, “I say, Tang Meng, your hairstyle makes you look quite energetic. I think you should just maintain this look from now on!”

From his return to Qingshui City at 7:30pm, Ling Yun had thrown a joyous birthday celebration for Ning Er without much effort and healed Tang Meng and Yao Rou. Following which, he had expelled the Xiangxi people from Qingshui City and avenged the destruction of his clinic. Additionally, he had saved the lives of seven renovators. After the hectic chain of events, Ling Yun had just managed to catch his breath and relax.

Tang Meng stroked his shiny and smooth head before shouting angrily, “How can that be? Big Brother Yun, it isn’t my style to be bald...”

Ling Yun was stunned at those words and thought that it was his catchphrase. When did that guy learn it?

He rose and found the superior Longjing tea that Zhuang Meifeng had purchased. After brewing it, he placed the tea on a coffee table and raised his eyes to look at Tang Meng, who was opposite him. “Tang Meng, why haven’t I heard any updates about Cao Shanshan after my return? Where has she gone?”

The expressions on Cui Lao and Dugu Mo’s faces changed at the mention of Cao Shanshan’s name!

Tang Meng was dumbfounded and blinked. “Big Brother Yun, I assumed that you knew since you hadn’t asked. How is it that you don’t know?”

Ling Yun’s heart skipped a beat as he wondered whether Cao Shanshan had run into trouble. The Cao Family was one of the seven big families in Beijing, so who would dare to provoke her?

His eyebrows shot up. “No one told me anything, so how am I supposed to know? Haven’t you seen how busy I have been tonight?”

“What’s the matter?”

Tang Meng tilted his bald head and thought that, judging by Ning Er’s character, she wouldn’t have initiated a conversation with Ling Yun regarding Cao Shanshan. He laughed and said, “Don’t worry, Big Brother, there isn’t any issue except that Cao Shanshan has returned to Beijing!”

“She returned to Beijing early in the morning last Tuesday. When she left, we weren’t even aware that you had gone missing!”

“Why did she return to Beijing?” Ling Yun probed hastily.

“To attend a blind date, what else could it be?”
