Chapter 451:- Cure Ning Xin (4)
"Okay."
Yun Qingya nodded, not expecting that Yun Luofeng would have the jade pendant of Elder Ning in her hands. No wonder she was so confident about the journey to the Ning Family.
Seeing that the two were about to enter the Ning Family, Fourth Elder's face changed, and he stepped forward to stop them.
"Master, since Yun Luofeng is our guest, we should treat her with hospitality, but I don't think she can save Ning Xin. Perhaps she will make things worse and accelerate Ning Xin's death!" Fourth Elder clenched his teeth, "So, I don't think we should let her see Ning Xin."
Yun Luofeng paused, her dark eyes gradually falling on the old face of the fourth elder, her eyes bright and penetrating as if she could see Fourth Elder's heart through his eyes.
Uneasy at the penetrating gaze, Fourth Elder couldn't help but draw back a few steps.
"So you don't want me to save Ning Xin?" Yun Luofeng pressed on towards Fourth Elder for two steps, releasing a dangerous aura. "Is it because that your son loves Ning Xin but Ning Xin doesn't like him, so you became angry from embarrassment and developed the idea that if he can't have her then nobody can?"
Fourth Elder's face greatly changed, and hurriedly defended himself when he noticed that the middle-aged man's eyes immediately turned suspicious. "Nonsense! I have been treating Ning Xin like my own daughter since she was born, and I hope she can recover more than anyone else! You are simply fomenting dissension here. Master, don't listen to her nonsense. She is clearly ill-intentioned!"
When he said this, he looked anxiously at the middle-aged man, and his heart slowly sank after he felt the disbelief of the other party.
Yun Luofeng! That darn girl! How dare she say such a thing in front of the master?
If she didn't have the jade pendant of the former master, he would have finished her now!
"Fourth Elder," the middle-aged man said with a sullen look, "Didn't you just say you hoped more than anyone else that Xin'er would recover?"
"Yes, I swear that I hope she can recover more than anyone else," Fourth Elder answered hurriedly and kept nodding.
At the moment, Fourth Elder was just trying to get rid of the master's suspicion, but he didn't realize that his words completely annoyed the middle-aged man. The one who most hoped that Ning Xin would recover would, of course, be her own parent! Fourth Elder just forgot about this!
How dare he say that he was the one who most hoped that Ning Xin would recover!
Then what about him? Even an outsider hoped that his daughter would survive more than he did?
Looking at the angry face of the middle-aged man, Fourth Elder was a little scared. He didn't know what word he said that had irritated the master.
Coldly glancing at Fourth Elder, the middle-aged man turned his eyes to Yun Luofeng, thought for a while and asked, "Can you really cure Xin'er?"
To be honest, the same as Fourth Elder, he didn't think Yun Luofeng had this ability! However, if not treated, Xin 'er would die! So he could only venture to believe her this one time. But this didn't mean that he would accept Yun Qingya of the Yun Family as his son-in-law!
"Second Uncle, Xiao Bai, let's go."
Not answering the middle-aged man, Yun Luofeng directly entered the gate of the Ning Family. She didn't have any good feelings towards the people of this Ning Family except Ning Lao and Ning Xin...

Chapter 452:- Cure Ning Xin (5)
In a boudoir, the fragrant snow-white gauze curtain was fluttering with the breeze, through which, one could indistinctly see a beautiful girl lying in bed.
The girl was pale and silent, and her breath was so faint as if her body was going to break into pieces at any moment.
Looking at the girl's bloodless face, Yun Qingya felt his heart miss a beat, his dark eyes filled with guilt. If it weren't for him, Ning Xin would not be injured...
"Her condition is not very serious."
As if feeling the guilt and worry in this man's heart, Yun Luofeng comforted him.
Hearing Yun Luofeng's words, Yun Qingya was finally relieved. In his opinion, if Yun Luofeng said it wasn't serious, it meant that Ning Xin's wound could still be treated.
"Humph!"
Fourth Elder, who followed them to enter the boudoir, snorted and glanced at Yun Luofeng scornfully, his old face filled with contempt. "You are just faking it, right? The strike of Lu Yin left a hole in the heart of Ning Xin. If it were not for the Medical Pavilion that prolonged her life by ten days with precious medicinal herbs, maybe Ning Xin would have died that very day! And all of this is your fault!"
As soon as he thought about the fact that Ning Xin was seriously injured from protecting Yun Qingya, he couldn't help but gnash his teeth. She was such a bitch! My son has been chasing her for so many years, but she remained unmoved. But now she was going to lose her life for such a useless man! She was just suffering from her own actions!
Yun Qingya did not speak, and this time, he agreed with Fourth Elder. Indeed, if it weren't for saving him, how would Ning Xin be so seriously injured?
He owed her a life and could only pay it with his entire life!
Yun Luofeng coldly glanced at Fourth Elder, "If you utter any single word, I don't mind... making you dumb forever!"
"You..." Fourth Elder was trembling with anger and shouted out loud, gnashing his teeth, "You dare to be so presumptuous just because you have the jade pendant of the former master in your hand! Who do you think you would be if you didn't have the former master's support?"
"Who am I? You'll know it later, but now I'm going to treat Ning Xin, and I don't have time to talk to you."
She came here to cure Ning Xin and avenge Yun Qingya! But Ning Xin could not wait any longer, so she temporarily ignored Fourth Elder.
"My master told you to shut up, didn't you hear her?" Lin Ruobai glared at Fourth Elder who was about to open his mouth again, and with a sullen look complained, "I've never seen such a stupid old man! Can nobody stop him?"
In Xiao Bai's opinion, any person who her master didn't like could not be a good one! And obviously, her master disliked the people of the Ning Family, including the future father-in-law of her second uncle.
So, none of these people were good!
Fourth Elder's face turned blue with rage. He was about to speak but was interrupted by a voice beside him.
"Fourth Elder, stop it. Ning Xin is dying. Why not let her have a try? Let's believe this little girl one time." First Elder shook his head with a sigh and turned his eyes to the dying girl in bed, a sad look flashing through his eyes.
As the heiress to the Ning Family, Ning Xin had never been spoiled and was always kind and nice to people, so they were all fond of her.
.

Chapter 453:- Cure Ning Xin (6)
But he didn't expect that Ning Xin would be so seriously injured this time! How dare the bastards of the Medical City do this to her!
A murderous desire flickered through First Elder's eyes. Even if Ning Xin survived, he would never let go of the Medical City! They knew Ning Xin was in the Yun Family, but still launched an attack against the Yun Family. It was clear that they didn't put the Ning Family in their eyes!
However, First Elder had wrongly accused the people of the Medical City. If they had known that Ning Xin would be in the Yun Family residence, they would not have chosen that time to launch the attack! They thought that Ning Xin had left with Elder Ning, so they had come to the Yun Family.
"Thank goodness, I finally found a normal person in the Ning Family." Lin Ruobai lifted her chin up, her cute little face filled with arrogance, and she patted First Elder's shoulder and said as though giving a lesson, "How can you not believe in my master's ability? If my master didn't have that ability, then why would your former master give her the jade pendant?"
The middle-aged man blushed. From the very beginning, he didn't believe in Yun Luofeng's ability, and was even a little bit angry at her rudeness! However, if he had known that she had his father's jade pendant, he would not have been so rude.
"Xiao Bai, don't talk," Yun Luofeng said, "Don't bother me when I'm treating Ning Xin! Do you understand?"
"Okay."
Lin Ruobai responded obediently and quietly stood next to Yun Luofeng, took out a candied hawthorn stick, and cutely licked the sugar-coated red fruit.
The whole room quieted down, and even Fourth Elder didn't dare to say anything more! However, his eyes were filled with disdain. Obviously, he didn't believe this girl had the ability to bring the dying back to life!
...
"What did you say?"
In the deep mountains, an old man, who was in the middle of his meditation, heard the report of a young man, and immediately opened his eyes, his old face filled with anger.
"The Medical City attacked the Yun Family while I was away? What about the Yun Family?"
"Elder Ning, the people of the Yun Family are fine, but Miss Ning Xin was injured by Lu Yin while protecting Yun Qingya and now her life or death is uncertain!"
The young man standing in front of Elder Ning was a physician of the Medical Pavilion. He came out to look for Elder Ning's whereabouts as ordered by Elder Rong. Fortunately, he soon found Elder Ning in the deep mountains, where he was in meditation for cultivation.
Hearing his words, Elder Ning released a violent aura and instantly destroyed all the surrounding trees. He jumped to his feet in anger and shouted with a ghastly pale face, "Where is Xin'er?"
In the past few days, he felt that he was going to break through. In order to be able to advance to a higher level, he left Ning Xin behind in the Yun Family and found a quiet place to meditate for cultivation.
He didn't expect that so many things would happen in these few days!
The Medical City! Lu Yin!
Good!
Very good!
Since they dared to injure his granddaughter, he would make them regret it for their entire life!
The young man glanced carefully at Elder Ning, "Miss Fang Ya managed to keep Miss Ning Xin alive temporarily, but she only has ten days left... Elder Rong has also sent people to find the heiress of the Yun Family. It's said that only she can save Ning Xin's life."
Ten days!
Elder Ning felt his heart missed a beat and asked, "How many days are left?"
"Today is the last day..."
"What?" Elder Ning's face turned paler, "What about Miss Yun? Has she come back?"
The young man nodded, "Miss Yun returned to the Long Yuan Kingdom a few days ago..."
.

Chapter 454:- Cure Ning Xin (7)
"She came back? That's great," Elder Ning said with a sigh of relief, his face not as pale as before. "With her ability, as long as she's back, Xin'er will be fine."
Hearing Elder Ning's relieved voice, the young man carefully said, "But just before Miss Yun came back, Fourth Elder of the Ning Family went to the Long Yuan Kingdom, took away Miss Ning Xin, and injured Miss Fang Ya and Yun Qingya of the Yun Family!"
Boom!
The aura of Elder Ning that had calmed down immediately became furious, and he hit the ground with a fist. A hole about the size of his fist immediately appeared in the ground.
"That fool! Does he want to kill Xin'er?"
As long as Yun Luofeng came back, Ning Xin would be fine, but the fool took Ning Xin away by force and injured Yun Qingya! He clearly intended to murder Ning Xin!
The young man shrank his neck, not expecting that Elder Ning, who had always been mild, would turn so violent! He could only imagine how much he was enraged.
"I have to go back at once! Xin'er must be waiting for me to come home! And I'll strangle that fool!"
With these last words, the tone of Elder Ning turned sad, with a great deal of rage in it.
If Xin'er died, he would not let the murderers go, whether it was the Medical City or Fourth Elder!
He would bury these people with Xin'er!
"Well..." The young man glanced at Elder Ning and hurriedly drew back his eyes, "There's another thing I haven't told you yet. After Yun Luofeng found out that the people of the Ning Family had taken Miss Ning Xin away, she went to the Ning Family together with Yun Qingya. Our scouts around the Ning Family said that they saw that Yun Luofeng had entered the Ning Family... "
On this day, Elder Ning experienced a lot of ups and downs.
First, he got furious after learning about the Medical City's behavior, and then he was sad for his granddaughter's injury! However, when he heard that Yun Luofeng had returned to the Long Yuan Kingdom, he was relieved.
But then, hearing that the people of the Ning Family had forcibly taken Ning Xin away before Yun Luofeng came back, he became desperate again...
At last, the boy told him that Yun Luofeng had arrived at the Ning Family!
Anyone would collapse after going through so much despair and hope! But Elder Ning just stared at the young man with glazed eyes.
"Elder Ning..." The young man waved his hand before Elder Ning's eyes and asked apprehensively, "Are you all right?" If the old man had died of a heart attack because of him, Elder Rong would kill him!
"Nothing," Elder Ning came to himself, shook his head and turned his eyes to the young man in front of him, "Why didn't you just tell me that my granddaughter would be all right?"
He just needed to tell him that his granddaughter had been injured by the bastards of the Medical City and that Yun Luofeng was treating her!
Why did he say so much garbage?
The young man rubbed his head, "Elder Rong asked me to report everything to you, so I tried to tell you every detail."
"Then why didn't you say it all at once?"
"Elder Ning," the young man looked aggrieved, "you were the one who didn't let me say it all at once. Every time I was talking, you interrupted me or frightened me with your aura."
"Alright," Elder Ning took a deep breath, suppressed the raging flame in his heart, and said angrily, "I gave a jade pendant to Miss Yun, which is a token of the Ning Family's power. With that jade pendant in her hand, the people of the Ning Family won't dare to stop her! Now I'm going to the Medical City to avenge my granddaughter!"
Now that Yun Luofeng had gone to the Ning Family, his granddaughter would be fine, and he could make those people pay now!

Chapter 455:- Make Them Pay (1)
At this moment, the Medical City was in a mess. Mentally a wreck, Lin Ge, Master of the Medical City, was anxiously pacing back and forth in the hall.
All of a sudden, a servant walked in a hurry and made an obeisance respectfully, "Master, the former master of the Ning Family, Elder Ning, has come to visit."
Hearing the servant's reporting, Lin Ge had a bitter and helpless smile on his handsome face. "He finally came."
Since he was told that Lu Yin had injured Ning Xin, he knew that the old man of the Ning Family would come to him for revenge sooner or later! And since he was in the wrong, even the Association of Physicians could not stop the old man.
"Haha." Suddenly, a sneer was heard from the front yard, and then a blue-robed old man stepped out of the door, a sarcastic smile hanging on his cold face.
"Impressive! Master of the Medical City! Even I have to admit inferiority to you! However, the Medical City broke their three-year promise and attacked the Yun Family. Won't you be utterly discredited if people find out about this?"
Lin Ge's face changed, "Elder Ning, this is a thing between the Yun Family and me..."
"Hum!" Elder Ning snorted and said expressionlessly, "I don't care. I only know that Yun Luofeng of the Yun Family is my nominal foster granddaughter, and my real granddaughter was injured by you! You have to pay a price for your deeds!"
Hearing Elder Ning's cold voice, Lin Ge gave a wry smile, "Elder Ning, Lu Yin didn't do these things properly. But I don't think it was wrong for us to attack the Yun Family! The Yun Family didn't keep their promise first. Yun Qingya is still alive! Since the Yun Family didn't keep their promise, why should we keep the three-year promise?"
As Lin Ge said this, a killing intent flickered through his eyes. His precious son was the best in his mind! No one could compare with him. How dare Yun Qingya publically humiliate his precious son? He would never ever tolerate it!
Elder Ning's face darkened bit by bit, "There'll always be a loser in a challenge. Your son was defeated because he was weaker. Nobody was to blame for this! Should Yun Qingya just stand still and let your son beat him? In that case, why did your son bother to challenge him?"
"Haha," Lin Ge sneered, "Elder Ning, you don't understand how I feel! Yun Qingya's behavior didn't only hurt my son's dignity, but also enraged me! He is the devil in my son's heart. If he doesn't die, my son cannot live a carefree life."
"But you sent a lot of people to chase Yun Qingya and forced him to hide in the darkness for ten years. Isn't that enough?" Elder Ning asked coldly, his eyes sullen.
"No, not enough! I want him dead! Only if he dies, can I let go of my hatred!" Lin Ge's eyes were filled with fierceness, and his face was ferocious.
Elder Ning shook his head, "You're crazy! Totally crazy! Yun Qingya just defeated your son in a challenge. He didn't kill or disable him. I don't know where your hatred comes from! I can't communicate with a lunatic like you. Today I 'm here to make you pay for what you've done to my granddaughter!"
"Make us pay?" Lin Ge sneered. No longer panicking, he calmed down and said coldly, "I don't know what you're talking about. Yes, Ning Xin was injured, but it was not our fault. She suddenly came forward and blocked the attack against Yun Qingya with her body! You should turn to the Yun Family instead of me for revenge! If it weren't for Yun Qingya, your granddaughter would not have been injured."
.
.

Chapter 456:- Make Them Pay (2)
Lin Ge didn't understand why Ning Xin would fall in love with Yun Qingya and even risk her own life to protect him!
She wouldn't have done such a crazy thing if it hadn't been for love.
Elder Ning paused and said, "I don't think there is anything wrong with Yun Qingya. In my opinion, the young man is very hard-working and never yielding to power. I admire his pride! And the Yun Family is not as bad as you said."
"Yes, they are not very strong, and their master is just a general of the Long Yuan Kingdom, but I have found out over the past six months that all the members of the family are worthy of respect." In the beginning, Elder Ning collected information on the Yun Family to find out more about Yun Luofeng, but during this process, he was deeply impressed by these people's pride.
Hearing Elder Ning's praise, Lin Ge sneered, "Pride? Without strength, what is the use of pride? No matter how proud Yun Qingya was, he still had to hide in the darkness for a decade because of our threat! If I were him, I would kill myself rather than suffer for ten years. I think he is not a coward, or else he would not have continued to live."
"You're wrong," Elder Ning gazed at Lin Ge disapprovingly. "Yun Qingya didn't commit suicide because he didn't want his father to lose his other son after losing the first son! If he had committed suicide, perhaps I would not admire him so much. Because he endured the suffering for ten years for his family, I greatly admire this young man."
As if not noticing Lin Ge's increasingly angry face, Elder Ning continued, "As for the rest of the Yun Family... Yun Luo used to be blindly loyal to his emperor, but he is still a courageous man. The emperor of another kingdom had a crush on his daughter-in-law Bai Ling and threatened him to either surrender his daughter-in-law or go to war! However, in a country of male supremacy, he ordered his son to go to the war without any hesitation, refusing to exchange his daughter-in-law for safety."
"As for Yun Yang, I don't know much about him, but he could lead millions of soldiers of the Long Yuan Kingdom and fought bravely on the battlefield. He must have been a brave man as well!"
When Elder Ning was talking about the people of the Yun Family, his tone was filled with appreciation, and a smile appeared on his old face. "However, in the Yun Family, the one I admire most is Yun Luofeng."
"That girl is simply a legend, with so many unfathomable secrets! It seems that as long as she is there, any difficulty will be readily solved! You wouldn't be able to understand this feeling. It's like... when I heard that she had gone to the Ning Family, I knew my granddaughter would be alright."
When it came to Yun Luofeng, Elder Ning's face turned mild. However, when he looked at Lin Ge, his eyes turned fierce again.
"Haha!" Lin Ge smiled contemptuously, his eyes filled with disdain. "The master of the Yun Family is just a general. Are you out of your mind praising them like this? On this continent, power is everything. The Yun Family is not strong enough, so they're doomed to be trampled by me!"
Not expecting that this guy still hadn't realized his mistake, Elder Ning finally got angry, "Lin Ge, believe me, Yun Luofeng is a very special girl and she will definitely be something. Perhaps in the near future you will have to beg for her mercy."
The girl was not only talented but also had extraordinary medical skills. Though she was still a little fish now, she never belonged to this little pond, and soon she would turn to a golden dragon, soaring high in the sky.
.
.

Chapter 457:- Make Them Pay (3)
"No," as if thinking of something, Elder Ning shook his head, "I forgot that. Perhaps you won't have enough time to witness that. What a pity..."
Not everyone was qualified to witness her growth! In particular, Lin Ge's behavior had challenged her bottom line. Even if he didn't come to get revenge against him, the girl would not let him go!
A grim look flashed through Lin Ge's eyes and he shouted fiercely, clenching his teeth, "Elder Ning, you are really brainwashed!" Lin Ge's face was still filled with contempt. Apparently, he didn't take the old man's words seriously. "She is just a general's granddaughter so what achievements can she have? Don't exaggerate. Since Yun Qingya is still alive, the Yun Family must be destroyed!"
"Good!" Elder Ning's eyes darkened and he said coldly, "Then I won't discuss the Yun Family with you! Now, give me the old bastard Lu Yin. I want to settle accounts with him!"
It was not that Elder Ning didn't want to destroy the Medical City, but that the Medical City should be left to the Yun Family! After all, the Medical City was the Yun Family's mortal enemies! It would be better to kill your enemy with your own hand!
If it were him, he would rather kill his enemy with his own hand than have his enemy killed by someone else! So, this time he didn't come here to destroy the Medical City, but to find the old bastard Lu Yin to vent his anger.
"Elder Ning!" Lin Ge's face changed, "Don't go too far. Lu Yin did something wrong, but he didn't injure your granddaughter on purpose. If it wasn't that your granddaughter rushed out to protect Yun Qingya, how could she get injured?"
"Hum! I don't care who my granddaughter was trying to protect. I only know that the person who injured her was Lu Yin! Give him to me, now!" Elder Ning's face was no longer mild but turned cold and fierce.
"Elder Ning! Don't forget that my daughter is the disciple of an elder of the Association of Physicians! Aren't you afraid of being an enemy of the Association of Physicians?"
Lin Ge's eyes turned colder. Though he knew that the Association of Physicians couldn't threaten Elder Ning, he couldn't give Lu Yin to Elder Ning, as it would be a big disgrace for the Medical City if he really did it. This was something he didn't want to happen!
"Your daughter? You mean your foster daughter?" Elder Ning cracked a mocking smile.
Lin Ge threatened in a low voice, his eyes solemn, "Whether she is my real daughter or foster daughter, I brought her up, and she's devoted to the Medical City. If you dare to hurt Lu Yin, you'll become an enemy of the Association of Physicians!"
If Elder Ning attacked them, he didn't know whether he could resist him or not... but in any case, he would not compromise!
"Haha, don't think you can count on the Association of Physicians! You were the ones who first did wrong. I'll see who dares to stop me from avenging my granddaughter!" Elder Ning's blue robe was fluttering in the breeze and he released a domineering aura, his face filled with confidence and pride.
He was only avenging his granddaughter, and even the Association of Physicians was not justified to stop him!
"Master." As Lin Ge's face turned paler, Lu Yin's cold voice came from outside the hall.
Hardly had his voice faded away when a grey-robed old man walked slowly from outside the hall and turned his icy eyes to Elder Ning, who was standing still in the hall.
.
.
.
Chapter 458:- Make Them Pay (4)
"Since Elder Ning has come here for me, I'll settle the matter myself." Even though his eyes fell on Elder Ning, he spoke to Lin Ge.
Lin Ge frowned, "Alright! Elder Lu Yin, the old guy is yours."
"Okay, Master." Lu Yin made an obeisance, his arrogant eyes turning to Elder Ning, a contemptuous smile hovering on his lips. "Elder Ning, I know that you are stronger than me, so you dare to come to us! But I don't think I did anything wrong. You are the one who is to blame. You failed to properly teach your granddaughter and indulged her to the point that she would shamelessly throw herself on a man!"
"Bullshit!"
Boom!
Elder Ning released all his power, his grey hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes burning with raging flames. He looked powerful enough to destroy everything.
"Damn you!"
With his hand stretched out, Lu Yin was lifted up. The blue veins in Elder Ning's forehead were strongly pulsing, and he looked furious. His granddaughter was his bottom line, and he would never allow anyone to insult her!
"Well, well, well, are you angry because you're ashamed? Isn't what I said true? As an unmarried girl, your granddaughter shamelessly went to a man's home and had sex with him! I guess Ning Xin risked her life to protect Yun Qingya because she had already given him her body! Am I right?"
The smile on Lu Yin's face spread, and it seemed that he didn't fear Elder Ning at all.
Bang!
Elder Ning smashed Lu Yin's body down on the ground, punching him with an overwhelming aura. In an instant, all the tables and chairs around him were lifted up by the shockwave and sent flying in the air!
Lu Yin, lying on the ground, vomited a mouthful of blood, but the contemptuous smile on his pale face grew bigger.
"Elder Ning, even if you kill me today, you can't deny what I said. You are the one to blame because you didn't teach your granddaughter properly, and we haven't done anything wrong!"
What he meant was that Ning Xin was to blame for being injured by them! And everything the Medical City had done was right! Ning Xin deserved it because she should not have blocked his strike against Yun Qingya with her body.
Bang!
Elder Ning punched Lu Yin's face once again, and immediately, his face was swollen like a pig's head, the blood continuously flowing down from his mouth.
"You know what, Yun Qingya is my grandson-in-law. What's wrong with my granddaughter living in her fiancée's home?"
Yun Qingya was a good and heroic man. He believed that his granddaughter would not suffer any grievance if she married him. Besides, the Yun Family had Yun Luofeng who was going to be something! He believed that as time went by, there would be a lot of people trying to establish a relationship with the Yun Family!
"Haha," Lu Yin laughed in a low voice as if some plot of his had succeeded, A treacherous ray flashed across his eyes as he fearlessly looked at the crazy old man in front of him. "It turns out that the Ning Family has degenerated to such a degree that your heiress will even marry a man like Yun Qingya!"
After hearing Lu Yin's words, Elder Ning, who had intended to kill him, gradually calmed down, and his fist froze in the air.
"I've changed my mind," Elder Ning calmed down, his eyes coldly staring at the old man lying on the ground. "According to my original plan, I was going to kill you! But now I've changed my mind."
.

Chapter 459:- Make Them Pay (5)
Lu Yin sneered and turned his head away, refusing to look at Elder Ning.
"Because..." Elder Ning opened his eyes slightly wider and slowly looked away from Lu Yin, saying coldly, "you'll get off the hook too easily if I kill you now! Since you look down upon the Yun Family so much, I'll let you see how they tread on you someday. Just keep your dog's eyes wide open!"
At first, Elder Ning did want to kill Lu Yin, but in the end, he chose not to do it. He wanted to let these people who despised the Yun Family end up in the abyss of despair.
"Hahaha!" Lu Yin guffawed, his old face covered with blood and looking quite grim. "Tread on us? Elder Ning, you think too highly of those people! I bet I will never see the Yun Family surpass the Medical City in my entire life!"
Even though the Yun Family had a genius, Yun Luofeng, so what? Genius was nothing but genius. After all, there were countless geniuses who had died young on this Continent.
Elder Ning slightly narrowed his eyes, an icy light flickering through his old eyes, "Lu Yin, I hope you won't regret what you said today."
Saying this, he turned to Lin Ge and coldly said, "Though I won't kill Lu Yin, you still have to pay for what you've done! I've heard that there are many precious medicinal materials in the Medical City, especially a blood ginseng that has been alive for thousands of years..."
Lin Ge's eyes darkened, "What do you mean?"
Elder Ning's face turned mild again, and he casually said, "Haha, my meaning is very simple. I want that blood ginseng of yours!"
"No way, this blood ginseng is what I'm going to exhibit at the physicians' conference in three years. I can't give it to you!"
"If you don't hand over the blood ginseng, I won't leave from here!" Elder Ning casually sat down and poured a cup of tea for himself, a faint smile on his lips.
Miss Yun was working to help his granddaughter and went to the Ning Family all the way from the Long Yuan Kingdom. As her nominal foster grandfather, he should bring her a gift. Since this girl was a physician, she should be interested in medicinal materials. So how could he not take advantage of this opportunity and extort something good from them?
"Elder Ning, you're not a physician. Why do you want medicinal materials?" Lin Ge clenched his teeth. He had known the old man would not be easily dealt with, but he didn't expect that he would set his eyes on the blood ginseng.
The blood ginseng was so precious! It was said that as long as a dying person was still breathing, his life could be prolonged by a few days by having a slice of the blood ginseng in his mouth...
"You don't have to be a doctor to want this kind of thing. Lin Ge, think of it, do you want me to live here or give me the blood ginseng? I'm a little grumpy these days. When I'm bored, I'll kill some people for fun," Elder Ning said mildly, slowly sipping the tea in the hand, his face expressionless.
His meaning was clear. If Lin Ge didn't hand over the millennium blood ginseng, he would stay in the Medical City and kill several people every day for fun. Even though the Medical City had a lot of people, they couldn't stand such brutality from the old man.
"Elder Ning, you are angry with Lu Yin and have beaten him. What do you still want?" Lin Ge asked, clenching his teeth.
Elder Ning glanced at him, "I want the blood ginseng, and I won't leave here unless I get it!"
The old man was determined, insisting they should compensate him with that millennium blood ginseng.

Chapter 460:- Make Them Pay (6)
"Good, very good!"
Lin Ge forced a smile, clenching his teeth. "Elder Ning, you'd better not regret what you did today! Come on, bring me the blood ginseng!"
Regret it? Elder Ning smiled mildly. The people of the Medical City are the ones who are going to regret it!
After a moment, a maid walked into the hall, holding the blood ginseng on a tray. When the red cloth covering the tray was uncovered, a blood-red ginseng appeared in the eyes of the people. The ginseng was bright red, with a strong smell of blood, but the smell didn't nauseate people. Instead, the people present all felt the qi and blood in their bodies surging up with the smell.
"Yes, this is that blood ginseng." Elder Ning's eyes were full of joy, "You are smart not trying to deceive me with something else. Okay, I'll kindly accept your gift, haha." Saying that, Elder Ning carefully put away the blood ginseng.
Lin Ge's face was blue with anger and ordered coldly, "See the guest out!"
He didn't want to see the old man anymore, or else he was afraid that he would lose his temper, and shed all pretenses of cordiality with him! However, certainly, there was already no cordiality left between them.
"By the way," Elder Ning took a few steps and paused as if he thought of something, "It's said that the Medical City has abundant resources, so you should still have a lot of medicinal materials. I'm also interested in visiting your warehouse."
"You old bastard, don't go too far!" Lin Ge tightly clenched his fist. He had endured this old man over and over again, but he didn't expect that he would be so shameless!
Looking at the gloomy-faced Lin Ge, Elder Ning smiled casually, "If you had taken the initiative to take me to the warehouse, maybe I would have stopped, but since you are treating me so rudely, I will go visit your warehouse anyway!"
Lin Ge was shaking with anger and couldn't even utter a single word. If his eyes could kill people, Elder Ning would have been killed hundreds of times...
"Master, don't be angry with such an asshole," Lu Yin struggled to his feet and stumbled to Lin Ge's side, a crafty look flickering through his eyes. "The old guy was trapped by me."
Since Elder Ning had gone away to visit their warehouse, Lu Yin dared to say such a thing. If Elder Ning was still here, he would not dare to say these words.
Lin Ge frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Haha," Lu Yin gave a ghastly smile, "Elder Ning was so irritated that he claimed that Yun Qingya would be his grandson-in-law, and even when he calms down, he will still marry Ning Xin to Yun Qingya to keep his word. In that case, the power of Ning Family is destined to end in Ning Xin's hands... "
Ning Xin was the heiress of the Ning Family. Even though she had great talent, she would marry Yun Qingya, a powerless man! If Ning Xin was married to an excellent man, it would be harder for them to seek revenge!
"But with Elder Ning there, we can't do anything against the Ning Family!" Lin Ge's eyebrows were furrowed more tightly, with a touch of helplessness on his face.
"Master, do you really think Elder Ning's disease has been cured?" Lu Yin glanced at Lin Ge. "So many doctors treated Elder Ning and all of them said he could never recover, but now he is claiming that he was cured by Yun Luofeng. Do you believe it? I think Elder Ning knows that he is going to die, so he just lies about that to protect the Ning Family."

Chapter 461:- Make Them Pay (7)
The Ning Family was dependent on Elder Ning. Without Elder Ning, the Ning Family would no longer be a threat to them!
Lin Ge sighed, "Even though Yun Qingya was not dead, he should have lived as a trash. But he showed up intact. Maybe he really was cured by Yun Luofeng..."
Lu Yin sniffed. At first, he thought exactly the same as Lin Ge, but after he left the Long Yuan Kingdom, he secretly probed into Yun Luofeng! It turned out this girl didn't have any master, so how could she have such great medical skills?
Did she teach herself? Was it possible?
But Yun Luofeng did restore a eunuch's masculinity in the imperial palace of the Long Yuan Kingdom...
Perhaps she had some precious medicinal materials in her hand! He had heard that there was a kind of medicine that could regenerate broken bone, so it couldn't prove her ability.
"Master, though we seriously injured Yun Qingya more than a decade ago, maybe he wasn't really disabled by us! Perhaps he recovered from his wounds long ago, and was just keeping a low profile during the last decade."
Hearing Lu Yin's analysis, Lin Ge agreed with a nod, "What you said really makes sense. We haven't seen Yun Luofeng's real ability. How can we be sure whether she has good medical skills or not? Maybe she's just deceiving people."
A mocking smile appeared on Lu Yin's face, "Master, I'm sure that Elder Ning can't live that long. Before then, we shouldn't attack the Yun Family, or else the old man will surely come out to stop us. As long as he dies, no matter the Yun Family or the Ning Family, we can destroy them as easy as turning over our hands."
"Elder Lu Yin, you're right," As Lin Ge thought of the humiliation he suffered today, a murderous desire flickered through his eyes. "By the way, how about my son?"
Lu Yin paused and quieted down. After quite a while, he replied, "Young Master became furious when he heard that Yun Qingya was still alive. Nobody can make him calm down!"
"Well," Lin Ge sighed helplessly and his face softened, "anyways, tell him I will avenge him. Yun Qingya... won't live that long!"
...
In the boudoir of Ning Xin, the girl was lying in bed, her eyes closed and her pale face shining in the sunlight.
Yun Luofeng slowly got up from the bedside and turned around, "Today is the last day, and she has almost recovered. Now let my second uncle stay here with her. Let's leave here. It's time for me to settle with you."
"No way!"
Fourth Elder's face darkened, "Yun Qingya harbors evil intentions towards Ning Xin. How can we allow him to stay with her alone? I don't agree!"
Hardly had his voice faded away when a chill glance fell on him and made him choke. He moved his lips but couldn't utter a single word.
"The one I want to settle with is you." With a dangerous light in her dark eyes, the girl gently smiled and gradually pressed on towards Fourth Elder, "So, get out of here with me now!"
Fourth Elder's eyes darkened, and just when he was going to say something, he was interrupted by the girl.
Yun Luofeng turned her eyes to the middle-aged man with a languid smile, "If you don't mind disturbing Ning Xin, I don't mind settling with him right here. But you'd better know that the consequences of disturbing her... would be very serious!"

Chapter 462: Tragic Fourth Elder (1)
The middle-aged man turned around and looked at Ning Xin who was lying in bed. He kept silent for a while, then turned his eyes to Yun Luofeng again, "Alright, let's go out first."
"Master!" Fourth Elder got angrier, and his gloomy eyes fixed on Yun Luofeng. "Girl, don't go too far! You're just an earth-level spirit cultivator, and you're not my opponent!"
"Since you know my identity, don't you know that... I like bullying people?" Yun Luofeng cracked a smile, her dark eyes filled with evil intent. She smiled like a devil that would push people into the abyss of despair step by step.
"Haha!" As if hearing some funny joke, Fourth Elder couldn't help laughing. "Bully people? Yun Luofeng, even though you have the old master's jade pendant in your hand, after all, you are just an outsider. What makes you believe you can bully an elder in the Ning Family? Didn't your grandpa teach you any rules?"
His eyes were full of disdain, and obviously, he didn't take the girl seriously.
At this moment, an old hand came suddenly from the side, tightly seized him by the collar, and dragged him towards the outside of the door.
Fourth Elder was stunned. He gave the old man dragging him a black look and said threateningly, "First Elder, what are you trying to do?"
Hearing his words, First Elder glanced at him and said indifferently, "Ning Xin needs rest. We'd better talk outside."
"You... "
Before he could say anything more, he was heavily thrown on the ground by First Elder with a thud. Endless raging flames erupted from his heart and were going to burn First Elder to ashes.
"Miss Yun," the middle-aged man frowned and turned his eyes from Fourth Elder to the beautiful girl beside him. No longer using a condescending tone, he asked, "Did Fourth Elder do anything wrong? Why are you treating him like this?"
He was trying to be polite! But Yun Luofeng still felt his displeasure. After all, Fourth Elder was still an elder of the Ning Family. No matter what he had done, Yun Luofeng, as an outsider, had no right to treat him like this.
At the thought of this, Yun Luofeng smiled wickedly, "The second reason I came here was to take revenge for my second uncle!"
The middle-aged man was stunned and frowned disapprovingly, "Just now in the doorway, Fourth Elder was not quite friendly to Yun Qingya, and I'll ask him to apologize to him. But it's just a verbal dispute, is it necessary for you to take it so seriously?"
Not knowing the behavior of Fourth Elder in the Long Yuan Kingdom, the man thought it was only a verbal dispute and said such words.
Yun Luofeng glanced at the middle-aged man, her eyes as sharp and icy as a knife that would fly into one's heart and cut it into pieces.
"To take Ning Xin away, he seriously injured my second uncle! Shouldn't I ask him to pay for this?"
"Really?"
The middle-aged man's face suddenly darkened. He didn't expect that he just asked Fourth Elder to bring Ning Xin home, but Fourth Elder had done such a thing! That was really improper of him!
"You can ask him about it! Besides, it happened in the Medical Pavilion, and the people there can confirm it."
.

Chapter 463: Tragic Fourth Elder (2)
Hearing the name of the Medical Pavilion, the master finally chose to believe Yun Luofeng. Glaring at Fourth Elder, he said coldly, "Fourth Elder, how dare you! I told you to be polite to the people of the Yun Family. How could you injure Yun Qingya? I'll see how you'll explain it to my father when he returns!"
Fourth Elder snorted, " Yun Qingya harbored malicious intentions and tried to seduce Ning Xin! And if it hadn't been for him, Ning Xin would not have been injured, so I was just too angry... "
Smack!
Before he finished, the middle-aged man had ruthlessly given him a slap, and he felt dizzy and saw stars with this slap.
"Save your excuses! My father appreciated the Yun Family so much. Did you ever consider my father's feelings when you did this? As for Xin'er's marriage, it'll be up to me, not you! Moreover, Xin'er protected Yun Qingya just because my father appreciated the Yun Family, which has nothing to do with 'seducing'!"
Hearing the man's words, Yun Luofeng frowned, gave him a cold glance and then looked away. Though it seemed that the master of the Ning Family was defending Yun Qingya, he was actually telling them that Ning Xin would not marry Yun Qingya! Even though Yun Luofeng had shown great medical skills, the Yun Family was just so-so. So the master of the Ning Family didn't want to marry Ning Xin into the Yun Family!
Unless she joined the Association of Physicians, then with the Association of Physicians as a backstop, the world would treat the Yun Family with a different attitude.
But was it possible?
She would not join any forces but support the Yun Family with her own strength!
"But Master, I am still an elder of the Ning Family. Isn't she also insulting the Ning Family by insulting me here?" Fourth Elder gave Yun Luofeng a black look.
No matter what mistakes he had made, as long as he didn't threaten the Ning Family, the Ning Family would not punish him! So he had the courage to say such things to the master.
Yun Luofeng glanced at Fourth Elder wickedly, raised the corners of her lips and cracked a smile. Her smile was icy, like a cold blast blowing upon one's face.
"But I think that what the Ning Family is doing is an insult to yourselves!" She leaned against a tree and said with a faint smile, "Since I have Elder Ning's jade pendant in my hand, is there anyone who dares to not obey my orders?"
"Hahaha!" Fourth Elder guffawed. "Yun Luofeng, are you crazy? What makes you believe you can punish me just with that jade pendant? Unless Elder Ning comes back in person, even Master will not have the right to punish me!"
"Really?" Yun Luofeng raised her eyebrows and looked at the other elders of the Ning Family with a wicked smile, saying, "Now, on behalf of Elder Ning, I order you to beat him to death!"
"Yun Luofeng, I've told you, you... "
Fourth Elder was going to ridicule her only to find that First Elder and the other elders were approaching him.
"What do you want to do?" A frightened look flashed through his eyes and he couldn't help but draw back a few paces.
"Fourth, I'm sorry, but the girl has the old master's jade pendant. That means she can represent the old master, so we have to obey her orders. Otherwise, we'll be blamed for being disloyal to the old master."

Chapter 464: I Just Like Bullying People
First Elder shook his head helplessly, but he couldn't stop laughing in his heart.
Over the years, Fourth Elder had bossed them around because he thought his son was only ranked after Ning Xin among the juniors of the Ning Family, and would probably become Ning Xin's fiancée. Even though he only ranked fourth among the elders, he thought he was more important than all the other elders! He had been putting up with him for a long time! Now with such a great opportunity, how could he let it go?
It was the same with the other elders who had long been angry with the fourth elder! If it weren't for his son who might become the next master of the Ning Family, they would not be so tolerant of him. After all, Ning Xin was the only daughter of the master, so anyone who married her would be the next master of the Ning Family.
"Yun Luofeng!" Fourth Elder angrily shouted at Yun Luofeng,"By using the people of the Ning Family to fight against me it just shows that you are timid! Fight a dual with me, if you are not a coward!"
Yun Luofeng raised the corners of her lips, lazily leaning against the tree, a casual smile on her face as if she was watching a good show.
"I've told you I like... bullying people! What can you do to me?"
Everybody in the Long Yuan Kingdom knew that Yun Luofeng, the heiress of the General's Estate, was a dandy and like bullying people. Now, she was just acting like she always did. What was wrong with it?
"Yun Luofeng, you are afraid to fight a dual with me, you trash!"
Greatly enraged, Fourth Elder spoke without thinking, and even called her 'trash'.
Before Yun Luofeng could reply, the lovely voice of Lin Ruobai rang.
"Tut, how shameless you are! How dare you ask my master to fight a dual with you? Look how old you are! As a man who only became a sky-level spirit cultivator at an extreme old age, how dare you call my master a trash?"
Was the Ning Family such a big deal? How dare they insult her master like this! She would ask her daddy to avenge her master some other day!
No one could speak ill of her master!
"Xiao Bai..."
"Yes, Master! Any instructions?"
Hearing the words of Yun Luofeng, Lin Ruobai immediately responded, respectfully waiting for Yun Luofeng's orders. Her eyes were shining as bright as stars. Was Master irritated by the old man and was going to teach him a lesson herself?
This would be great!
She believed that even though her Master was only an earth-level spirit cultivator, she would be able to defeat Fourth Elder who was a sky-level spirit cultivator.
"I'm tired..."
However, Lin Ruobai waited only to hear Yun Luofeng say this. Lin Ruobai's little face fell. She frowned but still ran into the hall, fetched a chair and put it behind Yun Luofeng. When Yun Luofeng was seated, Lin Ruobai got behind her and asked her with an obsequious smile, "Master, do you need a massage?"
"Okay." Yun Luofeng sat idly on the wooden chair, with a casual smile on her lips, her smiling eyes staring at Fourth Elder who was besieged.
"Fourth, I'm sorry, but you really should have obeyed Master's order. Nobody can protect you this time since you've made such a big mistake."
First Elder went to the front of Fourth Elder and winked at the other elders around him. Soon all the elders released their power and surrounded Fourth Elder.

Chapter 465: Grieved Master Ning (1)
"First, Second, and Third, you don't..."
Bang!
When First Elder's fist struck the chest of Fourth Elder and knocked him down, he endured the pain in his chest, jumped up from the ground, and tried to resist them. However, he was hopelessly outnumbered, so he kept getting knocked down on the ground every time he tried to get up.
With his eyes filled with hatred, he glared at Yun Luofeng. If his eyes were capable of killing people, Yun Luofeng would have been cut into pieces by him!
"Yun Luofeng! You evil woman! You will die a miserable death!"
His voice was like a curse, haunting everyone's heart.
However, hearing his malevolent words, Yun Luofeng only smiled faintly and said in a languid tone, "It seems that every defeated opponent of mine will say something like this before they die! But I won't let you die too soon."
At this moment, the girl was languidly leaning against the chair, a wicked smile hanging on her stunningly beautiful face. She was like a noble queen, so arrogant and domineering, a defiant look in her dark eyes. If she glanced at you, you would tremble with fear and nervousness.
Blech!
Fourth Elder vomited a mouthful of blood and fell down again. He tried to open his swollen eyes, but his vision was still a blur no matter how hard he tried. In this blurred vision, he could only see the girl's fluttering white dress...
Plop!
Finally, Fourth Elder fell down with a thud. His clothes were ragged, and red blood oozed from the corners of his mouth.
"Lock him up and let my Second Uncle punish him after Ning Xin wakes up."
Ning Xin hadn't awakened yet, so Second Uncle was probably not in the mood to do anything else besides just staying with Ning Xin! It was Second Uncle who was injured by Fourth Elder, so he should be punished by Second Uncle.
"Master, please enjoy some tea."
Lin Ruobai poured a cup of tea and offered it to Yun Luofeng, a bright smile on her lovely little face.
"Where did you get this tea?" Yun Luofeng picked up the teacup and gently took a sip. After tasting the tea, she frowned.
Lin Ruobai blinked, "I found it in a drawer, but I have to say this tea was really well hidden. It was hidden in a drawer inside a wall. If it weren't for my good sense of smell, I would not have found it."
After massaging Yun Luofeng's legs for a while, the little girl noticed that her master hadn't had any water for a long time and should be thirsty, so she rummaged every corner of the Ning Family when nobody was watching. Then she stumbled upon a drawer in a wall...
The tea was so well hidden that it must be a good tea, so she quickly brought it to her master. In Xiao Bai's eyes, all good things should be contributed to Master! How dare the Ning Family hide it!
"Where did you say you found the tea?" The face of the middle-aged man suddenly changed, a look of panic in his eyes.
Lin Ruobai curled her lip and said, "Master, he must have a problem with his hearing. I said I found the tea in the drawer inside the study wall and he still asked me where I found it."
Flop!
The middle-aged man stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Damn! His stash had been found by this little girl!
Above all, he and his father both loved tea. Every time he got a good tea, it would be taken away by the old man! So this time, he chose to hide the tea!
