Dragon Emperor, Martial God

“Eh?”

“Ah?”

Both of them turned pale simultaneously, as though they were struck by lighting!

Ling Yun wasn’t cursing them, those were facts!

“H-how did you know? No, y-you are spouting rubbish! I don’t have a venereal disease!” Zhu Yongwang replied subconsciously but recanted mid-sentence. He must not admit that!

It was too late!

“We just need to let Miss Murong excuse herself and see for ourselves to know if you really have a venereal disease or not,” Ling Yun replied leisurely.

“What!”

Murong Feixue had doubted Ling Yun’s medical skills as well. She couldn’t bring herself to believe that a normal high schooler could cure her grandpa of such a serious disease. She believed that Murong Wenshi’s injury wasn’t as serious as they said. Moreover, he was under the care of the best provincial hospital.

The most serious injury Murong Wenshi sustained was in his brain, after all. He was in a coma then, so who knew if he was merely unconscious or if he had suffered brain damage?

That was why Murong Feixue was very much in agreement with Hou Yaozong’s insistence for Ling Yun to prove his medical skills.

That was why she thought Ling Yun’s diagnoses were actually him cursing at the two nouveau riches after being under siege from two great enemies.

After all, no one would see the venereal disease, which was at the most private spot of a man.

Also, people with gout went about their daily lives as per normal until there was a trigger for it to happen.

However, she knew instantly from Zhu Yongwang’s expression that Ling Yun’s diagnosis was real. She received a rude shock and a mixture of feelings — shyness, annoyance, remorse, and the most powerful of all, disgust. She turned and made a beeline for the toilet. She had shaken hands with Zhu Yongwang when they met!

Murong Feixue was simply disgusted out of her mind now that she knew about it!

Ling Yun stared gleefully at Zhu Yongwang’s face, which was as white as a sheet. “See, Miss Murong has left. Do you dare to take your pants off and let us ascertain whether what I said is true or not?”

Zhu Yongwang was now extremely embarrassed. His face turned a whole spectrum of colors before becoming almost purple. He was infinitely shocked. This was his greatest secret, which even his best friends didn’t know about. How the hell did Ling Yun know about it?

Hou Yaozong was equally shocked but didn’t felt as shameful. Gout was a rich man’s disease, after all, and the cause of it was just overindulgence.

Ling Yun could even see that? It seemed like he wasn’t lying after all!

Hou Yaozong’s thick head suddenly had an idea. If Ling Yun could see that he had gout, did that mean Ling Yun could cure it?

“You’re right, I do have serious gout, you… you can cure it?” Hou Yaozong suffered a lot because of this wretched gout. On each onset, the joints of his fingers and or toes would be so red and swollen that the pain was unbearable. Moreover, each episode usually lasted for two to three days. Hou Yaozong didn’t even dare to cover himself with a blanket during winter when it was triggered. Every touch was a cause of pain. He even wanted to die a few times.

That was why he asked.

Ling Yun smiled at him. “Yes, I can!”

Hou Yaozong was elated. He had thrown the thought that he had teamed up with Zhu Yongwang to the back of his mind. “Can you treat me then? I’ll believe you if you can cure me. I’ll give you whatever amount of money you want if you can cure me!” Hou Yaozong said excitedly.

Ling Yun laid back leisurely into the creases of the sofa. “Such a pity that you don’t believe in my medical skills. Also, I don’t want to waste my skills on you to prove my medical skills. You’re not worthy! So, my apologies, but I won’t cure you…”

Ling Yun could see the problem with his body and could also cure it, but he didn’t want to treat him. Wasn’t he just playing with him? Hou Yaozong thought this to himself angrily.

“Hmph! You’re probably boasting and can’t cure it!”

“Oh? Really? Tell me then, how was I able to see the problems on both of you? Did you tell me yourself?” Ling Yun replied without a trace of anger in his voice.

Murong Feixue had finally emerged from the toilet. Her hands were red from all the scrubbing she did.

“Hmph!” Murong Feixue first looked down on Zhu Yongwang with disdain before glaring angrily at Ling Yun.

“Hmph! So what if you can see I have something wrong with my body?” It was too late for Zhu Yongwang, he might as well admit it.

“You can see the problems on our bodies but refuse to cure us. You prove nothing of your medical skills unless you can cure us!”

Zhu Yongwang knew in his heart that Ling Yun must be really good to be able to know what was wrong with him through a glance! Perhaps his venereal disease had a chance to be eliminated! He, therefore, tried to goad Ling Yun into action.

Who knew Ling Yun didn’t even bother with it. He simply turned towards Murong Wenshi.

“Grandpa Murong…” he started.

“Hmph! How dare you address him as Grandpa Murong!”

The two nouveau riches bellowed.

Murong Feixue turned red again but didn’t say anything.

Murong Wenshi was in awe of Ling Yun’s medical skills. “Please continue, Ling Yun,” he replied kindly.

He then gave the two nouveau riches an appalled look.

They had been making a big joke of themselves in the Antique Market. Not only had they caused shame to their families, but they had brought Murong Wenshi a lot of trouble. Today, they had finally made him lose face in his own office.

Ling Yun continued, “Grandpa Murong, I’m here today for three matters.”

Ling Yun is finally showing his true intentions, eh? Three matters? Such a big appetite, why didn’t he just say thirty matters? Murong Feixue thought to herself.

“Hmph!” Murong Feixue had her defenses up again as she looked on with irritation.

Ling Yun simply didn’t bother with her. “First, I cured Grandpa Murong almost two months ago. I’m visiting you to see how your recovery has fared. I’m relieved after seeing how Grandpa Murong is ruddy and in great health…”

“Ling Yun, you really know how to act nice. Grandpa Murong’s illness was cured long ago, so of course he’s in great health now!” Hou Yaozong laughed in disdain.

Zhu Yongwang also sneered and muttered something inaudible.

An infuriated Murong Wenshi slammed the coffee table with great force. “Shut up, you two!”

The two nouveau riches were scared shitless upon seeing how Murong Wenshi was really pissed off now. They stopped their jeering, not daring to even take a deep breath.

Ling Yun wasn’t affected. “Second, we had a bit of a misunderstanding the last time I met with Miss Murong. I was actually pulling a fast one on her then. I’m also here today to explain this matter.”

Ling Yun turned his gaze onto Murong Feixue. “Big Sister Murong, don’t look so sulky. I was just joking around with you to borrow your beloved car for a few days. I’ve been very busy ever since it was transferred to me, so I haven’t even driven it before. A lot of time has passed, so I’m here today to return your Maserati to you.”

“What?”

Murong Feixue’s jaw dropped. She couldn’t believe her own ears!

She originally thought Ling Yun was here today to get more benefits. Now that Ling Yun said he was giving her beloved car back…

That was the total opposite! Was this still Ling Yun?

Did Ling Yun shed his evil side along with the fat?

Maddening!

Murong Wenshi looked at his granddaughter with the same degree of surprise. A joke? Returning her car? How could such a Ling Yun be lecherous and greedy?

“Feixue, you…” Murong Wenshi berated Murong Feixue with his eyes.

Murong Feixue had always been rational and had never disappointed him. How could she have such a deep misunderstanding with Ling Yun?

Ling Yun curled the corner of his mouth up and continued passionately, “As the saying goes, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-floor pagoda. I didn’t want any repayment when I saved Grandpa Murong, not even money, so…”

“This is a cash check for a million yuan from ICBC. I’m giving it back to you in full. I can’t give you interest though, so if Big Sister Murong is still angry with me, then please hit me…” Ling Yun took a check out of thin air and placed it gently on the coffee table.

He had proved her wrong! Absolutely wrong!

He returned the car, the money, and he didn’t want any benefits!

Did he really not have any medical ethics?

These two actions from Ling Yun were enough to prove Murong Feixue wrong!
