Chapter 17: Immortal

Just as he was about to scold, upon seeing Qin Yang's appearance, the man's body shuddered violently, then with a thud he knelt before Qin Yang.

This left everyone stunned.

Su Nuan Yue, who had been thinking about how to explain things to everyone, was also dumbfounded.

"Immortal, how is it you? You came to Nan Cheng without notifying me; I could have welcomed you."

The man spoke excitedly, gazing at Qin Yang as if he had seen a rare treasure.

"President Lu, what are you doing?"

Su Nuan Yue couldn't help but ask.

Others also looked surprised, obviously not understanding President Lu's abnormal behavior.

"This is the Immortal I told you about; three years ago he saved my family's lives, and he is truly a Celestial Master with great abilities."

President Lu spoke, his face full of excitement.

Upon hearing his words, everyone's eyes lit up.

They looked at Qin Yang with eyes full of fervor.

Su Nuan Yue blinked slightly; everyone knows about President Lu's matter.

Three years ago he went to Thailand for a trip; as a result, after returning, his whole family fell ill.

Later people said they had offended someone and were cursed.

However, President Lu invited many Mysterious Gate experts, but to no avail; they were all swindlers from the martial world.

Just when the Lu family was almost hopeless, he encountered a Daoist expert.

The other party merely casually struck, and dispelled the curse in his household.

Everyone originally thought that Daoist expert would be an immortal-bearing old man with white hair and a youthful face.

Only now did they learn that the other party was actually a youth in his early twenties, exactly as they had imagined.

If that's the case, then three years ago this Immortal would have been only in his early teens.

He really is a Daoist disciple.

Three years ago?

Qin Yang thought for a moment, then realized who the person before him was.

"It's Old Lu, huh. I've told you before not to be so formal; back then I helped your family only because you usually do good deeds, your whole family are good people, so I helped you—you don't need to thank me, just keep doing good deeds."

Qin Yang said.

He helped President Lu up, appearing completely indifferent.

Lu Lixing excitedly nodded and said: "I have always followed the Immortal's words; these past years I have donated a lot of money, and even improved employee benefits, now my industry is twice as large as before—this must be what they mean by good deeds being rewarded."

Qin Yang nodded.

Everyone's eyes lit up; "Can doing good deeds really bring good rewards?" they wondered, otherwise they'd like to give it a try.

What they previously believed in were all "kill and plunder for a golden belt, build roads and bridges without corpses".

As for doing good deeds, these people scorned it.

Now telling them that doing good deeds could also increase their own holdings, they instantly became interested.

"Immortal, did you come specially to find me?"

Lu Lixing asked with an expectant look.

Qin Yang shook his head and said: "No, I came to find my wife."

"Wife?"

Here, the only woman is Su Nuan Yue.

All gazes gathered on Su Nuan Yue.

Su Nuan Yue felt a bit embarrassed, mainly because Qin Yang's outfit was truly unexpected.

However, she still stepped forward and said: "He came to find me."

Lu Lixing pondered and said: "Isn't Su Zong's fiancé the Qin Family's True Young Master who just returned? Could that person be you, Immortal?"

"It's me."

Qin Yang nodded.

Lu Lixing stared for a moment, then couldn't help shaking his head and said: "This Qin Weiye is short-sighted and doesn't know good from bad; he actually abandoned the Immortal, a true dragon among men, for an illegitimate child—if he knew the Immortal's abilities, he would surely regret it to death."

Qin Yang smiled.

He never intended to let Qin Weiye know his abilities.

Before, he didn't want them to know, because if he had abilities, even if they treated him well, it wouldn't be based on familial affection.

Now whether they know or not is no longer important.

He and the Qin Family have completely severed ties.

Afterward, Lu Lixing's gaze fell on Su Nuan Yue, and he praised: "Su Zong truly has good fortune; having the Immortal as a fiancé, the Su Family will surely rise rapidly."

Su Nuan Yue was somewhat surprised, never expecting Lu Lixing to give Qin Yang such high praise.

He even believed that the entire Su Family would soar because of Qin Yang.

Qin Yang smiled, said nothing, merely walked past everyone and sat beside Su Nuan Yue.

Afterward, Qin Yang gestured for everyone to sit down.

At this moment, Su Nuan Yue couldn't help but whisper: "How did you come dressed like this?"

Qin Yang shrugged and said: "Du Li told me, saying this banquet is full of big shots, important for you, and asked me to dress formally; this is my most formal attire."

Su Nuan Yue's eyelids twitched.

Yellow Daoist robe, this is what only a Celestial Master of high rank can wear.

It represents the highest, supreme status.

Even, the position within the Daoist sect is still above the purple robe.

Qin Yang's yellow Daoist robe represents a meaning far surpassing that of these so-called group CEOs.

One could say this: he is a Heavenly Master recognized by the state and the Daoist sect; wherever he goes, he will be respected and treated as an honored guest.

Those high-and-mighty bigwigs also must show them three parts of Jìngwèi.

"You're dressed very well."

Su Nuan Yue said.

She was quite clear that today her business was most likely going to succeed.

Sure enough, Lu Lixing directly spoke up.

"I agree to Su Zong's project; as for how to do it, you just tell me directly; with an immortal master by Su Zong's side, I am completely at ease."

Seeing Lu Lixing respond so readily, he agreed.

The others looked at each other, exchanging glances, and saw the excitement in each other's eyes.

If this Daoist priest is truly as formidable as the legends say, they need not worry at all.

They had already been optimistic about Su Nuan Yue's project; otherwise, they wouldn't have attended the banquet.

Xiǎng dào zhèlǐ, everyone all agreed.

Even, on the spot they had Su Nuan Yue bring the contract.

Su Nuan Yue was somewhat surprised, not expecting the matter to be so simple.

All of this is because of Qin Yang; she glanced at Qin Yang.

It seems that after meeting Qin Yang, all her problems were readily resolved, and the situation kept getting better.

Just then, Qin Yang suddenly stared at a man and said, "You don't want a child."

"What?"

That man froze for a moment, then suddenly became agitated.

"Immortal Master, can I have a child? You haven't deceived me?"

The man said excitedly.

He is called Gu Tianming; in Nan Cheng he is also considered a notable figure.

But no matter how outstanding he is, not having a child is the regret of his life.

He is already approaching fifty; he has tried various methods, and now he has basically given up on this idea.

"Simple, I can help you have your own child."

Qin Yang nodded; since he is a collaborator of Su Nuan Yue, helping out a bit is nothing.

Moreover, this person is not bad; faint golden light of merit glows on him, obviously he has done many good deeds.

"If Daoist priest can help me obtain a child, I am willing to offer one hundred million as compensation."

Gu Tianming said excitedly.

"Money is irrelevant; this method is very simple: go back, divorce your wife, then find a new wife."

Qin Yang said.

Gu Tianming's expression changed.

He glared angrily at Qin Yang.

Others' expressions also changed somewhat; Lu Lixing desperately gave Qin Yang a look.

Who doesn't know, Gu Tianming is famous in Nan Cheng for being devoted, most doting on his own wife.
