Chapter 621: Meeting Huo Yu Again

A massive passenger plane descended from the sky, the cabin door opened, and Lingyun and his group filed out from the cabin.

"Is this Rong City, where the Yan Family is located? It truly is a good place!" Lingyun said slowly, sensing the concentration of Heaven and Earth Origin Qi in the air.

"The Heaven and Earth Origin Qi in this place is truly very strong!" Luo Yexi also spoke up. "If a cultivator stays in this city, their cultivation speed would likely increase by more than thirty percent."

"Let's go!" Lingyun reached out his hand, preparing to hail a car.

"No need, it just so happens that Xiao Yuzi's family is in Rong City, so I already had him come to pick us up. Besides, we can go to his house while we're at it; you still need to help his sister, Huo Mengning, look at her injuries," Chen Jing said to Lingyun.

"Big Sister Boss, I'm here!"

Speak of the devil, and the devil appears; a car pulled up steadily in front of them, and a head poked out from the window—it was none other than Huo Yu, whom Lingyun had seen at the exchange meeting earlier.

"Great, Big Sister Boss, you've finally come! My sister's injuries have worsened again these past few days, and I was just thinking about rushing to Beijing to pick you all up." Huo Yu saw Lingyun beside Chen Jing, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

"Get in the car first; we'll talk about everything once we're inside," Chen Jing said as she pulled open the car door.

Lingyun sat directly in the front passenger seat, while the other girls sat in the back.

"Huo Yu, can you tell me about your sister's current condition?" Lingyun asked.

"Sister Meng's situation is very dire right now. The poison Linghao used on her back then was incredibly sinister; it not only destroyed my sister's dantian but also continuously eroded her meridians. If it weren't for my father using his own True Essence and precious medicines to suppress it, my sister would have likely already..." Huo Yu's expression turned ugly at the mere mention of Huo Mengning. "Moreover, during this time, my sister has occasionally fallen into a coma for no reason; the situation has become increasingly severe."

"Don't worry, now that Lingyun is here, everything will be fine!" Chen Jing patted his shoulder to comfort him.

Seemingly anxious about his sister's condition, Huo Yu drove the car at high speed. Before long, the car stopped in front of a private residence.

"We've arrived. My father bought this residence specifically for my sister, and he usually lives here too, so if anything happens to her, he can provide help in the shortest amount of time," Huo Yu said.

"Oh no, the young miss has fainted again."

Just as Lingyun and the others stepped into the residence, a scream rang out abruptly.

"Oh no, Sister—" Huo Yu's expression changed, his figure darted out instantly, and he rushed toward the direction of the backyard.

"Let's go, let's take a look." Lingyun and Chen Jing and the others nodded at each other, then followed after him simultaneously.

By the time Lingyun and the others caught up to Huo Yu, they happened to see a pale-faced woman sitting cross-legged on the ground. Behind her was a middle-aged man who looked to be about forty years old. The man had his hands pressed against the woman's back, and thick True Essence was continuously pouring into the woman's body. Huo Yu stood to the side, looking at the two of them with an anxious expression.

"Cough, cough, cough—"

After a while, the woman let out a light cough and slowly opened her eyes.

"Great, Meng'er, you're finally awake." Seeing the woman open her eyes, a hint of excitement appeared on the man's face.

"Father, I know my own physical condition; please don't let yourself be dragged down because of me," Huo Mengning said slowly with a light cough. "If it weren't for me, Father, you should have already taken that step by now."

"Nonsense! If I, Huoshengyou, cannot even protect my own daughter, then what is the point of taking that step and becoming a Half-step Nascent Soul powerhouse?" Huoshengyou slammed his fist into the ground and said with an angry expression. "Good daughter, tell me, is there someone else talking nonsense in front of you? See if I don't cripple them!"

Looking at the furious Huoshengyou, Huo Mengning shook her head slightly: "No one said such things to me; this is just what I thought myself. If it weren't for being a burden to you, Father, you should have already stood at a higher place by now."

"Sister, you don't need to worry; I have already found a way to treat you," Huo Yu, who was on the side, spoke up.

"A way to treat me?" Huo Mengning shook her head gently. "In my current state, the hope of being cured is truly too slim. Do you know? Father previously went to find that Shennong Successor who is hailed as the Goddess Doctor, but she was also helpless. However, she provided us with a clue: if we can find her senior, then there might still be hope."

"The Goddess Doctor's senior?" Huo Yu's expression suddenly turned strange, as if he had thought of something. "Father, do you know the name of the senior the Goddess Doctor spoke of?"

"I do, his name is Lingyun. But that divine doctor's whereabouts are uncertain, and I haven't been able to find him until now," Huoshengyou said, then turned toward the direction of Lingyun and the others. "You all must be Xiao Yu's friends. I was negligent toward you all just now because I was worried about my daughter's injuries; I truly apologize."

"There is no need for that, Uncle Huo, it has been a long time," Chen Jing stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Eh, are you that little girl Chen Jing?" Seeing Chen Jing, a hint of a smile also appeared on Huoshengyou's face. "I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, nearly ten years have passed; that little girl from back then is now a graceful young woman!"

"Lingyun? Father, I think I might have a lead on him," Huo Yu said somewhat hesitantly.

"What? You have news of Mr. Lingyun?" A hint of joy appeared on Huoshengyou's face, and he grabbed Huo Yu's arm abruptly.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, Dad, you're going to crush my arm!" Feeling the immense force coming from his shoulders, Huo Yu couldn't help but cry out strangely.

"Uh, sorry. I was a bit too excited," Huoshengyou hurriedly released his hands. "Xiao Yu, you said you have news of Mr. Lingyun, is that true?"

"It's fine, it's fine, Father, you were just worried about Sister's injuries," Huo Yu rubbed his shoulder and said with a grimace. "By the way, Father, the Mr. Lingyun you mentioned is him. Big Sister Boss can testify to this matter; she saw with her own eyes the Goddess Doctor calling Lingyun 'Senior'."

"You are the senior the Goddess Doctor spoke of?"

Huoshengyou looked at Lingyun with a hint of doubt in his eyes. There was no other reason than the fact that Lingyun looked truly too young, and since it concerned his daughter, he couldn't help but be cautious.

"That's right, I am Lingyun," Lingyun said indifferently.

Huoshengyou remembered that Ling Shuang had once told him that although Lingyun was called 'Senior' by her, his age was similar to hers, and he must not underestimate him just because he was young.

"Mr. Lingyun, could I please ask you to take a look at my daughter's injuries? I, Huoshengyou, would be eternally grateful," Huoshengyou said, cupping his hands toward Lingyun.

"I have already promised Huo Yu regarding this matter, so I will naturally do my utmost," Lingyun nodded and said.
