Chapter 570: Night Lodging

Aaron was, of course, very attentive toward the Lin family.

He deliberated carefully before prescribing medicine and giving medical instructions.

The Lin family paid the consultation fee with profuse thanks, and Aaron did not offer a discount or waive the charge; he treated them like normal patients, at most giving an extra smile because they were neighbors, and that was all.

Within a few months, the Lin family brought good news: the daughter-in-law was pregnant, and they even specially sent over a basket of red eggs.

Aaron accepted them with a few polite words, while inwardly slandering that either the old Master Lin hadn't returned in years, or that his expertise lay elsewhere, as he truly had no good methods for this aspect of childbearing.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been his turn to step in.

Ten months later, the daughter-in-law of Lin Jing suffered a postpartum hemorrhage, and Aaron again braved the wind and rain to make a house call in the middle of the night, pulling her back from the gates of hell.

A group of strangers gathered together, among them quite a few martial artists, were sitting in a circle around a fire to keep warm.

The girl in red blinked her eyes: "Then tell me about the Five-Colored Dragon Envoys... the Blue Dragon Envoy is dead, so there are still four left?"

The expressions of all the Martial Masters changed instantly, and some even drew their weapons.

"The Black Dragon Crowd is on official business!"

If you dare to look back, your head will fall to the ground!

Two rows of the Black Dragon Crowd parted, and a square-faced man with leopard eyes, a crocodile mouth, and bulging muscles stepped out from the crowd, looking at the mother and daughter in white in the corner: "White Dragon Envoy, long time no see!"

Creak!

As Aaron traveled, his eyes gradually grew deep...

The conversation between the old and young clearly attracted the interest of the other Martial Masters nearby.

Those Martial Masters wandering the world stood up one after another, faced the wall, and closed their eyes.

They used tree branches to skewer buns for roasting, chatting about matters of the world from time to time.

"The Black Dragon Crowd of the Black Dragon Envoy?"

These Martial Masters' eyes narrowed, but they did not say anything more.

The firelight flickered.

"This chief of the Thirteen Waterways controls everything, and the money passing through his hands every day is like flowing water; who wouldn't be jealous?"

The aroma of roasted buns filled the air.

At this moment, a mocking voice suddenly came from outside the dilapidated temple.

For the Lin family's hundred-day banquet for the child, they specially invited Aaron.

"Then Grandpa, what is the story with this chief?"

The woman in white said this loudly, then went to a corner on her own with her daughter.

"I know, I know..."

The legs of the others were also shaking, because the desperate men under this Black Dragon Envoy were not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also incomparably cruel!

Legend has it that falling into their hands is not as fortunate as committing suicide immediately!

Whoosh!

The cold wind blew past.

The elderly Martial Master said with a chuckle: "It's just that this chief has another identity; he is the Blue Dragon Envoy of the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce. This struggle for the position of chief is likely to draw the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce into the fray."

"The Five-Colored Dragon Envoys are all like this; I wonder what kind of supernatural powers that Legendary 'Qinglong Laoda' must have... I only hear that he is like a divine dragon that shows its head but never its tail; no one has ever seen his true face. Ten years ago, the few glimpses of his actions were earth-shattering!"

"Heh, you don't understand this. You must know that money can move the gods! With money, there is power! There are Martial Masters willing to sell their lives..." The old Martial Master took another puff of his pipe: "What's more... this Qingyun Chamber of Commerce is spread throughout the Lin Kingdom, claiming that wherever money flows, there is a branch, and its power is immense, not to be trifled with... The Five-Colored Dragon Envoys are all rare experts! Especially the Black Dragon Envoy, who has countless desperate men under him and is himself a Transforming Strength Master; even those noble families dare not provoke him!"

The old Martial Master sighed.

"Haha... that White Dragon Envoy is not only a woman, but she once fell into the life of a courtesan! You old man, do you know that?"

Just as everyone was listening intently, the dilapidated temple door was pushed open, and a middle-aged woman walked in with her daughter.

From then on, the Lin family was eternally grateful to Aaron, thanking him profusely; every day before dawn, they would have Lin Jing personally deliver breakfast to the pharmacy, and they would never accept money!

A man in black stepped forward: "You should know the rules!"

They were all masked, revealing only their eyes, and had the Heilong Yinjie on their bodies.

A Martial Master screamed, his voice trembling.

"Recently, the martial arts world of the Lin Kingdom has been surging with wind and clouds..."

Although the woman was past her prime, women and children who dare to wander the world alone all have one or two special skills.

This day.

She was dressed in white, seemingly in mourning, her face pretty; although there were some crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, she must have been a little beauty when she was young.

The little girl by her side was about nine or ten years old, wearing braids, and her pair of dark, bright eyes seemed to be able to speak, making her very endearing.

"The Black Dragon Envoy has already spoken, so there are three more... the Honglongshi only looks for people among the current wealthy tycoons of the Lin Kingdom, the Huanglongshi may have an official identity, and as for the White Dragon Envoy? She is the most Mysterious, only known to manage brothels and pleasure houses, and is a woman!"

In the dark night, figures in night-traveling clothes suddenly appeared.

The girl in red continued to ask: "The Qingyun Chamber of Commerce is a business; can they still fight with martial artists?"

"The night is deep and the dew is heavy; this concubine has come to borrow a place to stay for the night."

The girl in red picked up a roasted bun and handed it to the old Martial Master: "Grandpa, you eat... continue telling me about Qinglong Laoda."

But Aaron had a guilty conscience; to prevent that Lin Tuizhi from returning to visit his great-grandson and the two of them meeting, he declined the invitation, making the excuse that he had important matters to attend to, and temporarily left Mu'en City.

A Martial Master who looked like an old man was smoking a dry pipe, leisurely exhaling a smoke ring: "Just take the chief of the Thirteen Waterways—Lanyongba, who was actually found dead in his own room; the martial arts world has already fought many bloody battles to compete for this position of chief..."

'The Qingyun Chamber of Commerce has a problem...'

She looked at the Black Dragon Envoy and said coldly: "The Master has ordered that the Five-Colored Dragon Envoys must not investigate each other's identities! Do you want to violate the sect rules?"

Late at night.

'It is also true... I cannot lock the loyalty of my subordinates, and coupled with the fact that I have been holed up in Mu'en City for the past ten years, I have had no time to manage them... It is inevitable that they would develop other thoughts...'

"I can't say any more; the older one gets in the pugilistic world, the smaller one's Gallbladder becomes. If I say too much, I fear I won't be able to keep my head." The old Martial Master smiled as he broke off a piece of steamed bun to eat.

Dense forest, ruined temple.

Beside the elderly Martial Master was a young girl wearing a red padded jacket, at an age full of life and movement, who took on the role of the straight man.

That woman in white was none other than Yu Xuanwei!

He indeed had important matters to attend to.

With this mother and daughter occupying both ends, these wanderers of the pugilistic world dared not act presumptuously.

"Hehe... Qinglong Laoda is already old; it is time for someone else to take over as the dragon head."

The Black Dragon Envoy revealed a ferocious smile: "Among the Five-Colored Dragon Envoys, I have always felt you are the most undeserving of your reputation. A mere practitioner of Dark Energy, yet you sit as my equal; the old man is simply biased! This time, I burned down seventeen of your territories, dug up nine of your Secret strongholds, and interrogated dozens of your sisters just to force out your whereabouts!"
