Everyone applauding in the living room stopped applauding, and their mouths were wide opened. They stared blankly at everything that happened as though their brain wasn’t able to comprehend it!
What was happening? Where on earth did this ordinary-looking kid come from? When Xue Meining came down from the second level, she didn’t even greet her grandfather or father and dashed right into his embrace!
Moreover, Xue Meining was wearing an evening gown, which most people would be afraid of creasing. However, she didn’t bother about the gown and ran straight towards Ling Yun.
The weirdest part about this whole incident was still Ling Yun. He actually dared to extend his arms to embrace Ning Er in front of all the people here? Some of the glares were so sharp that they could kill!
Looking at this scene, Miracle Doctor Xue was unperturbed, and his eyes were filled with gratitude and satisfaction. He smiled and sat down, genuinely happy for his precious granddaughter.
Ai, this Ling Yun... I really don’t want any trouble from him in the future... Miracle Doctor Xue was sincerely brimming with joy.
Xue Meining was sobbing in Ling Yun’s embrace for a long while, and all her tears and mucus made Ling Yun’s shirt extremely wet. After a long while, she finally lifted her head from his chest and stared at Ling Yun with her swollen eyes. She started speaking with fear and worry, saying, “Brother Ling Yun, are you really back? Where have you been? Did you know that everyone has been searching frantically for you? We thought you...”
As she said this, Xue Meining immediately kept quiet as she didn’t want to continue. Now that Brother Ling Yun had come back safe and sound, everything was good!
Ling Yun gave a bitter smile. He really didn’t expect his trip down to the crater to take so long. This was because before he went down to the crater, he was already able to circulate a simple Yin-Yang harmony balance. Moreover, he had already broken through to Physique Tempering Stage Four.
He had sufficient confidence that he would be able to find the Yin Formation in the shortest possible time. From his experience in the Cultivation World, he knew that transforming his Yin-Yang harmony balance to energy of his energy center would only take a split second.
As such, Ling Yun should have entered the crater on the night of April 6th and been out the morning of April 7th. He really didn’t expect himself to miss one whole week of school!
Moreover, the crater was just there and couldn’t run away. He merely wanted to explore and knew that he could simply head back any time he wanted.
However, Ling Yun didn’t expect that the cultivation of the Yin-Yang harmony balance to achieve the peculiar energy center would take him three days and three nights.
After that, the three idiots unintentionally activated the killing spell. And after he retrieved the dragon saliva, he even found the Eight Trigrams Tai Chi Diagram. After numerous discoveries one after another, he actually spent five days and six nights. When he walked out of Shennongjia, it was already April 12th!
He rushed the driver and spent a total of twelve hours just to rush from Shennongjia to Qingshui City. All in all, Ling Yun spent a total of six days and six nights from the time he entered the crater to the time he returned to Qingshui City!
If Ling Yun knew it was going to take so long, he would have told Tie Xiaohu before heading down to the crater. At the very least, everyone would have known where he went.
However, if that were the case and Ling Yun didn’t come back after so long, his friends would definitely think of ways to enter the crater to find him. At the thought of how dangerous the crater was, people like Xiao Meimei and Tie Xiaohu would definitely die if they went down. The outcome might be devastating, which would make Ling Yun regret it his entire life.
After a freak combination of factors, they finally arrived at this scene. Other than trying his best to comfort Ning Er, there was nothing Ling Yun could do.
“I’m really back! I’m at fault for disappearing for such a long time, but I promise this won’t happen again. In fact, I went to look for Ning Er’s birthday present, and I’ll give you a huge surprise later!”
One sentence was enough to touch Xue Meining’s heart as she stared at Ling Yun dazedly. She almost lost control and burst out in tears again, but she finally managed to keep it in. She hit Ling Yun’s chest lightly as she said, “Didn’t I say I don’t need any birthday gift from you? God! I don’t need any surprises, all I want is for you to attend my birthday celebration! Ning Er would be extremely blessed if you came!”
What! Disappear? Look for a birthday gift? Didn’t Ling Yun say that he didn’t bring any birthday gifts?
When the nouveau riche behind Ling Yun saw how intimate Ling Yun and Xue Meining were, they grew envious, jealous, and furious!
Now that they heard Ling Yun went missing just to find a birthday gift for Ning Er, their eyes went wide in disbelief.
Ling Yun wore a short-sleeve T-shirt and baggy green joggers and didn’t even carry any bags. Since when did he bring a birthday gift?
Everyone thought that he was merely boasting and showing off. They couldn’t wait to see him in action when it was time to give her the present!
At this moment, Ling Yun could only touch the skinny face of Xue Meining as he asked, “Ning Er, why are your eyes so swollen? And why are there traces of blood?”
Everyone was able to tell that Xue Meining’s eyes were incredibly red and swollen. However, because of the occasion and people around the living room, nobody pointed it out. When they heard Ling Yun actually ask in front of everyone, all of them furrowed their brows. Wasn’t it obvious that she cried her heart out because she was worried sick about you?
Xue Meining panicked as she realized that Ling Yun had already noticed her eyes. She was so frightened that she hurriedly buried her head into Ling Yun’s chest again before whispering, “I’m so ugly now, so I won’t let you look at me...”
Ling Yun laughed, and just as he was about to reply, a clear voice could be heard from the side. “I believe Sister Ning Er must have been too busy preparing for her birthday celebration over the past few days and hasn’t been able to sleep well, which resulted in her swollen eyes. However, don’t worry, my Miracle Physician Valley has a blood circulation ointment! As long as you put in on your face, it will take less than three hours for Sister Ning Er’s eyes to be as good as new!”
The young valley master of Miracle Physician Valley, Hu Shaobai, came with a clear purpose today. He was here to propose to her, so when he saw how intimate Ling Yun and Ning Er were, he was incredibly infuriated. Now that he realized this was his chance to shine, he didn’t need a second invitation to act. At the same time, he was able to manifest his status.
Everyone was captured by Hu Shaobai’s voice as they looked over. Indeed, he was holding a small golden-bright box that looked incredibly exquisite. One look and everyone could tell that it was made from pure gold, causing them to gasp uncontrollably.
Even though some ordinary people might not have heard of the Miracle Physician Valley, people addressed Miracle Doctor Xue as a Miracle Doctor. Therefore, it didn’t take long for people to presume this was a top sect in the medicinal industry. It wasn’t hard for people to be lost in their fanciful thoughts and imagination.
However, when Ling Yun was in the crater, he heard about the Miracle Physician Valley from Tie Zhengping of the Divine Fist Sect. He looked over at the proud Hu Shaobai before smiling at him. “Thank you, but three hours is a little too slow. How can she cut the cake later on?”
Everyone present in the room was blown away by Ling Yun’s words.
Even meticulous makeup wasn’t able to cover up the swell in Xue Meining’s eyes. Three hours to recover was already a miracle, so how could Ling Yun say that it was too slow?
When Xue Chengye and Zhang Manyun heard Ling Yun’s words, they were incomparably shocked at how arrogant Ling Yun sounded! If Ling Yun criticized that three hours was too slow and would delay the cutting of the cake, could Ling Yun have any way to heal Ning Er’s eyes before the cake cutting?
The cake had already been brought out to the living room. It was merely waiting for Xue Meining to blow out the candles and make her wishes, then it would be time for the cake cutting!
The two of them looked over at Miracle Doctor Xue but saw that Miracle Doctor Xue didn’t say anything at all. He was simply smiling at Ling Yun as if he had confidence in him.
Being embarrassed in front of so many people, Hu Shaobai’s face turned red immediately, and he rebutted almost instantly, “Ling Yun, please make sure you mind your words. Even though you need not pay taxes for boasting, stop saying things that no one could do. If you cannot do something, please don’t criticize others! What a joke!”
Hu Shaobai would never believe that there was a medicine superior to medicine from his Miracle Physician Valley!
When everyone in the living room heard his words, they nodded in agreement. They felt that Hu Shaobai was right and that Ling Yun’s words held no substance at all!
Some other kid who wished to see the whole world in chaos even added, “That’s right, Ling Yun! If you say that his medicine is useless, why don’t you show us something that is useful! Stop trying to make him look bad if you cannot even match him! I would lose my head if I were you!”
At this moment, everyone frowned at Ling Yun. He instantly became the target of a multitude of arrows once again.
Ling Yun smiled faintly as he looked at that arrogant kid before looking at Hu Shaobai again. “Who says I can’t do it? Why would I say something that I couldn’t accomplish?”
After saying that, Ling Yun used his right hand to cover Xue Meining’s face before lifting her head. He smiled and told Xue Meining, “Ning Er, just shut your eyes for a while, and it will be okay...”
Naturally, Xue Meining trusted Ling Yun, so she looked longingly at Ling Yun with a sweet and adorable smile before shutting her eyes.
At that moment, Ling Yun had already taken out a Healing Talisman from his spatial ring using his left hand. With lightning-quick speed, he placed the Healing Talisman on her eyes and shouted in his heart, Now!
Xue Meining felt a comfortable cooling sensation on and around her eyes. Soon after, she felt that the swell in her eyes finally vanished and that her vision recovered. When she blinked, she no longer felt that dryness and pain in her eyes.
“It’s done!” Ling Yun took back his left hand as he smiled brightly.
“What...” “Ah!” “This...” “Impossible!” “This is too magical!”
The moment Ling Yun took back his left hand, everyone looked towards Xue Meining’s face. Everyone saw how Xue Meining’s swollen peach-sized eyes returned to normal, and the traces of blood within her eyes disappeared too!
Her eyes were gorgeous, like the eyes of the Goddess Athena — bright and clear. In comparison to her swollen eyes, the drastic change shocked everyone in the living room!
