This old looking box was about a meter and a half long and thirty centimeters wide. Evidently, it was similar to the rosewood case given to him by Miracle Doctor Xue. It also contained spiritual energy isolated from this world.
Even so, the item in this long and narrow box was only emitting extremely little spiritual energy. Even though the quant.i.ty was pathetic, it was so much purer than the spiritual energy emitted by the s.h.i.+chiyou herb.
“There is definitely a treasure in here…” Ling Yun mumbled to himself and was inevitably stunned. He thought that his family had always been impoverished. Why would his mother have something so precious?
He secretly peeked at Qin Qiuyue and only saw that she was still busy instructing the others on where to place her items. She didn’t even turn towards Ling Yun’s direction.
The box was locked, but Ling Yun didn’t bother thinking about it anymore. He simply picked up the box and walked out as though nothing had happened.
This box was at least ten kilograms. Of course, for him, carrying such weight was not any different from carrying a baseball bat. Just as he was about to walk out of the backyard, he heard Qin Qiuyue’s gentle voice from behind him.
“Ling Yun, leave this box on mummy’s car.”
Ling Yun let out an ‘oh’ but didn’t stop walking as he brought the box to the entrance of the People’s Clinic. Afterwards, he carefully put down the box.
They were almost done moving all the items from the house. After Ling Yun brought the box out, he never entered the clinic again. Instead, he casually walked into Li Hongmei’s shop, which was just beside the clinic.
“Yo! Ling Yun is here. You’re almost done s.h.i.+fting? You look very tired. Here, have a Coca Cola to quench your thirst.”
When Li Hongmei saw Ling Yun walking in, she welcomed Ling Yun with an exceptionally bright smile. She simply forced the bottle into Ling Yun’s hands without waiting to find out if he actually wanted it.
Qin Qiuyue had arrived with Ning Lingyu early in the morning to pack up their items. But instead, Qin Qiuyue had been dragged away by Li Hongmei to chat for half a day. Of course she knew that Qin Qiuyue was moving today.
“Thank you Auntie Li. We’re almost done. You know the address of our new house right? We welcome you to visit us whenever you’re free.”
Ling Yun didn’t bother standing on ceremony. He immediately twisted off the lid of the coca cola and drank a few mouthfuls of it. Then, he continued to ask Li Hongmei, “Auntie Li, do you remember the huge needle that I bought from your place? Do you still have more?”
While the huge needle might not look very outstanding, it was an extremely effective murder weapon to Ling Yun. It could be said that if he didn’t have the two hundred huge needles last night, it would have been several times more difficult to take Deepa’s life.
“Here!” Even though Li Hongmei found it odd, she still faced Ling Yun with a huge smile. She went to pick the needles for Ling Yun enthusiastically.
Previously, Ling Yun bought all her needles, which made her ran out of stock. This time, Li Hongmei had stocked one hundred boxes.
“How many do you want this time?” Li Hongmei took five to six boxes and turned to ask Ling Yun.
Ling Yun replied with a smile, “Give me as many as you have…”
Li Hongmei almost lost her balance after hearing Ling Yun. She found it increasingly hard to understand this kid. Why would he buy so many needles all the time?
Although she was curious, she didn’t ask more about it. She immediately carried out four huge boxes filled with the large needles and placed them in front of Ling Yun. “Here! These needles just came in last Tuesday. The one hundred boxes are all here. Consider this a gift from me.”
One hundred boxes meant five thousand needles. It was definitely sufficient for Ling Yun to use in whatever way he wished.
Ling Yun waved his hand and smiled. “How can I let you do that? I shall not ask for the price either, so here is one thousand. Hopefully Auntie will accept it.”
After saying this, Ling Yun placed ten hundred yuan bills on the counter. He didn’t want to waste any time haggling with Li Hongmei over the price. He immediately grabbed the four boxes and left the shop.
“Ah…” Li Hongmei exclaimed as she stared at Ling Yun’s back. She didn’t say anything for a long time before mumbling to herself, “Qin Qiuyue’s kid… is really mature…”
Before his mother and Ning Lingyu came out, Ling Yun ran towards the back of Tang Meng’s Hummer and placed the four big boxes of needles in the boot.
Within a few minutes, Tang Meng, Tie Xiaohu and Ning Lingyu walked out of the People’s Clinic. The last to leave was Qin Qiuyue.
When Qin Qiuyue walked to the entrance of the clinic, she cautiously locked up the roll-up door personally. She took four to five steps back and looked at the signboard of the People’s Clinic silently.
The neighbours on the left and right all got along well with Qin Qiuyue. When they saw Qin Qiuyue leaving, all of them came out to congratulate and bid goodbye. In their eyes, one could tell that there were traces of envy for her.
In the end, it was Li Hongmei who came out with tears in her eyes and said, “Qiuyue, don’t look anymore. Hurry up and leave. It is a good thing that you’re moving to a huge villa. The kids are waiting for you…”
Qin Qiuyue remained stoic and bid goodbye to her neighbours personally. She sincerely invited them to visit her at her new house before waving goodbye to everyone like a popular celebrity waving to her fans. Following that, she entered the car.
Just as they were going to leave, a black BMW arrived opposite their car. Two tall and strong looking men walked out of the car.
Ling Yun only need one glance to recognise these two men. They were Brother Dao’s capable fighters, Zhan Long and Zhan Hu.
After Zhan Long and Zhan Hu came out of the car, they walked cautiously and extremely respectfully towards Ling Yun. Zhan Long looked at Ling Yun with utmost respect and asked him politely, “Brother Ling, I wonder if you’re free now. Our Brother Dao wants… he wants to meet you.”
Last Sunday night, after Brother Dao had been restrained, he had immediately arranged for his subordinates to rent an apartment next to the People’s Clinic. They were really watching over this clinic 24/7 and were incredibly worried that someone might do something to the clinic.
Ling Yun didn’t lie to Brother Dao. The night after Brother Dao returned, at midnight, his body had been in so much pain that he had wanted to die. Fortunately, Ling Yun’s methods were extremely exquisite, and Brother Dao only suffered for four to five minutes. No words could describe the intensity of the pain.
Brother Dao was an infamous figure in the underground world. One could say that his willpower and guts were made from iron. He wouldn’t even groan if someone were to stab him once or twice, but the pain that night had been truly unimaginable.
Just think about the Xuan-ranked killer Xiao Meimei. The moment Ling Yun used his restriction, even Xiao Meimei, who had gone through extremely cruel training, wasn’t able to withstand that, let alone a mere underground Boss.
When the men a.s.signed by Dao Yong saw that Ling Yun and his family were about to leave, they hurriedly gave Dao Yong a call. Without wasting any time, Dao Yong immediately sent Zhan Long and Zhan Hu over to invite Ling Yun.
Ling Yun smiled as he muttered softly, “Dao Yong cannot take it anymore?”
After a short pause, he walked towards Qin Qiuyue and said in a low voice, “Ma, why don’t you leave with Lingyu first. I will catch up with you once I settle something.”
Qin Qiuyue frowned but only cautioned Ling Yun to be careful before driving off.
After Ling Yun saw that his mother and sister had left, he turned back to Tang Meng. “You follow my mother’s car back too. Tie Xiaohu and I will follow them over. We will be home very soon.”
Tang Meng was slightly unhappy when he saw that Ling Yun chose to bring Tie Xiaohu and not himself. Without saying much, he acknowledged Ling Yun’s instructions and drove off.
Ling Yun exchanged glances with Tie Xiaohu, but neither of them said anything. They simply hopped onto Zhan Long and Zhan Hu’s BMW.
“Hurry up and move. I still have a lot of things to do today,” Ling Yun said to Zhan Long.
Zhan Long nodded profusely without saying anything. He was afraid that he might offend Ling Yun if he said anything, so he simply stepped on the accelerator.
Dao Yong’s house was in its own separate courtyard on the side of Linjiang Road. Zhan Long drove quickly, and they arrived in less than three minutes.
After Ling Yun got on the car, Zhan Hu had messaged Dao Yong, so Dao Yong was already waiting for them at the gate.
Once the car stopped, Dao Yong, whose face was quite scarred, briskly walked to the BMW and personally opened the car door for Ling Yun.
“Little Brother Ling Yun, I’ve been waiting for you. Come in and have a seat!”
n.o.body brought up any previous resentment they had. When Dao Yong saw Ling Yun, it was similar to a mouse meeting a cat. He was extremely honest and respectful.
Ling Yun smiled as he entered the courtyard together with Tie Xiaohu and Dao Yong closely behind them. Zhan Long and Zhan Hu were stationed cautiously at the entrance of the courtyard and didn’t follow them in.
After entering the house, Ling Yun sat on the sofa without restraint. He casually sized Dao Yong’s house up before chuckling, “Big Brother Dao, your place is rather decent…”
Dao Yong instantly started sweating. After using his handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead, he replied, “Little Brother Ling Yun, you must not call me Big Brother Dao. I am not worthy…”
If it wasn’t for the fact that Ling Yun was way too young, Dao Yong would have already addressed Ling Yun as Big Brother Ling. How could he be worthy of Ling Yun calling him Big Brother?
“This is?” Dao Yong took the initiative to ask when he noticed that Ling Yun had not introduced Tie Xiaohu.
At over 1.9 meters, Tie Xiaohu looked like a black metal tower seated right beside Ling Yun. He looked so menacing that it was almost impossible for Dao Yong not to spot him.
Ling Yun laughed. “His name is Tie Xiaohu.”
Dao Yong’s expression changed instantly. “Tie Xiaohu from the Green Dragon Gang?”
Ling Yun had no need to hide this fact from him so he simply nodded. Without bothering about Dao Yong’s astonishment, he immediately asked, “My schedule for today is very tight. You can go ahead and tell me what you plan to tell me.”
Dao Yong’s face turned red. He looked pained but didn’t say anything. All he did was to walk to his table and pick up an ATM card and a brand new key. He walked back as he placed it respectfully in front of Ling Yun.
Ling Yun didn’t understand what was the meaning of these. He asked, “What is the meaning of this?”
An awkward looking Dao Yong swallowed his saliva before saying, “Little Brother Ling Yun, this card has eight million yuan in it. This key is the car key of a Revered Edition Land Rover which I specially bought for you just two days ago. Initially, I had wanted to send it to you personally, but I heard from my men that you were going to move out today. After thinking about it, I steeled my courage to instruct Zhan Long and Zhan Hu to invite you over so that I could hand these two items to you. This is my best wishes for your new home…”
Ling Yun smiled faintly. “We are not very close, yet you’re giving me such a huge gift. How can I accept it…”
Even though he said he couldn’t accept it, Ling Yun’s face had no such expression.
Dao Yong didn’t say anything more as he replied respectfully, “It is just a small token of my appreciation. I hope you will accept it!”
