Chapter 170: The Dominant Huo Zhi Dong

~7 min read 1,323 words

He Miao despaired, knowing that the He family had provoked a terrifying existence.

He decadently knelt on the ground, watching as Lin Yang swung a sword at him.

With a single sword strike, He Miao's head hit the ground.

Lin Yang thought for a moment, picked up He Miao's corpse, and threw it into the neighboring He Chen's room.

Early the next morning, when He Chen woke up, he was so frightened his face changed dramatically.

There was nothing else; corpses were scattered all over the room.

The martial artists his He family had brought were all beheaded.

He endured nausea and fear, looking among the corpses.

Finally, he saw the corpse of his second elder brother, He Miao.

"Second brother!"

In his grief, he then noticed words written on the wall.

"Wait until I slaughter the He family."

He Chen was frightened out of his wits; enduring his fear, he called the family to have them come collect the bodies.

This time, the He family dared not even consider acting against the Huo family.

The He family left silently, and the Huo family still didn't know.

At this moment, in Huo Shui Xian's room, Huo Zhi Dong, the head of the Huo family, looked at his daughter.

"Shui Xian, do you know how much resistance I faced bringing your grandfather to the southwest this time?"

"If that guy named Lin Yang can't save your grandfather, I'll send him on his way."

Listening to her father's words, Huo Shui Xian's expression changed slightly.

"Father, he saved me; no matter what, you should spare his life."

Huo Zhi Dong looked at his daughter, his expression darkening.

"Do you know how much pressure the family has put on me?"

"If your grandfather isn't cured and instead gets worse, this debt will surely be charged to me!"

"By then, my position as family head won't be secure, you know?"

Seeing Huo Shui Xian lower her head and stay silent, Huo Zhi Dong asked in a deep voice.

"Do you like that guy or not!"

"If that's really the case, regardless of whether this succeeds, I cannot keep him."

Upon hearing her father's words, Huo Shui Xian's expression changed.

"Father, it's not like that."

"I'm merely grateful for his life-saving kindness."

Upon hearing Huo Shui Xian say that, Huo Zhi Dong then nodded and said.

"I'll tentatively believe you; always remember, your marriage is not just your own."

Huo Zhi Dong glanced at the time, frowned, and said.

"Your grandfather and his attending physician will probably arrive in about three hours."

"Now call that kid named Lin Yang over; I'll test how capable he is."

Seeing Huo Shui Xian still wanting to say something, Huo Zhi Dong's expression sank, he slammed the table and said.

"Hurry up and go, didn't you hear?"

"Yes."

The helpless Huo Shui Xian could only dial Lin Yang's phone.

"Mr. Lin, my father has arrived; could you come over this once?"

Lin Yang directly refused, he said.

"I've said before, if you want me to treat the illness, you must come in person."

Having said that, he decisively hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Huo Shui Xian worriedly looked at her father.

"Dad, he told us to come find him, saying this is his rule."

"Rule?"

Huo Zhi Dong laughed angrily, he said coldly.

"A brat from a poor backwater dares to lecture me about rules!"

"If he wants rules, then I'll let him know what rules are!"

"Come on, let's go see that brat!"

Watching her father and bodyguards leave angrily.

Huo Shui Xian hesitated a moment, then immediately followed.

Arriving at Xiao Chen's clinic, Du Juan was seeing patients.

Seeing that these patients were just ordinary elderly people in plain clothes, Huo Zhi Dong smirked contemptuously.

"Just enough to fool these clueless guys."

He walked to the clinic, looked at Du Juan and said contemptuously.

"Tell your boss to come out, saying there's a distinguished guest."

"Distinguished guest arrives?"

Du Juan wore a look of confusion.

"Heh, is it a distinguished guest or a malicious one?"

Lin Yang's voice suddenly rang out, and Huo Zhi Dong immediately looked over.

When he saw Lin Yang dressed ordinarily and with a frivolous attitude, his face darkened.

"Are you Lin Yang? Seeing an elder, you still don't come over to pay respects."

Lin Yang smiled, glanced at him, and said.

"You're not worthy!"

Upon hearing Lin Yang say that, Huo Zhi Dong's face darkened.

He walked up to Lin Yang, with a stern face, and said.

"As the head of the Huo Family among the Four Great Families of Xianggang, with assets over a hundred billion, I actually say I'm not worthy?"

"I know you're good at fighting, but do you believe I could buy your life with ten million?"

Facing Huo Zhi Dong's threat, Lin Yang laughed.

"Do you believe I could take your life right now?"

As his words fell, Lin Yang erupted with killing intent, making Huo Zhi Dong feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

His forehead began to sweat coldly.

He felt that if he continued to be arrogant, Lin Yang would strike without hesitation and kill him.

"Dad, we came to find a doctor for Grandfather, not to cause trouble."

The originally nervous Huo Zhi Dong, having been given a step down by his daughter,

snorted coldly and said to Lin Yang.

"You're not a doctor, are you? Do you only know how to kill, not to save?"

Listening to Huo Zhi Dong's words, Lin Yang looked at him and said.

"I will certainly save people, but I won't save the Huo Family."

"Unless, you kneel and beg me."

Beg you?

"Hmph, you really overestimate yourself; I have money, I can still hire a doctor?"

At this moment, Du Juan let out an exclamation.

"Master, I really wanted to encounter the Fu Fei Mai among the Seven Absolutes Pulses!"

"Like a cauldron boiling, it manifests on the skin, with outflow but no inflow, surging like waves on soup."

Hearing Xiao Du Juan's words, Lin Yang looked over; an old man lying on a simple stretcher was being carried by two sturdy men.

The two sturdy men wore ordinary clothes, clearly not wealthy.

My father is about to die; coming to Lin Yang is just a gamble on luck.

Lin Yang quickly stepped to the old man's side, saw his face purplish-black, and immediately took his pulse.

"Indeed, it's the Fu Fei Mai."

"Fortunately, he hasn't lost his breath; he can still be rescued."

On the side, Huo Zhi Dong snorted coldly and said to Huo Shui Xian.

"Encountering the Seven Absolutes Pulse and still claiming to cure it—most such people are frauds."

"However, that old man's son doesn't look wealthy; if he dies in the clinic, that guy named Lin Yang will have to lose money!"

Then he furrowed his brows.

"Shui Xian, this time Father was wrong; we shouldn't have come to the southwest—this guy is a complete fraud!"

"Fortunately, your grandfather hasn't gone far; I'll call him now and tell him not to come."

Just as he took out his phone, he saw the old man, whose face had just been purplish-black, already awake.

Those two sturdy men even knelt on the ground.

"Divine Doctor, thank you, Divine Doctor!"

"We went to the First Hospital; the doctors there had us prepare for the funeral!"

"Or rather, you're amazing, reviving my father!"

On the side, Huo Shui Xian, seeing this scene, was extremely moved.

"Dad, did you see? Lin Mr. truly has miraculous healing hands!"

Seeing the moved Huo Shui Xian, Huo Zhi Dong's face darkened.

Huo Shui Xian, noticing this, immediately restrained her emotions.

"Hmph, come back with me!"

Watching the Huo father and daughter leave, Du Juan asked.

"Master Lin, is it okay to just let them go like this?"

Lin Yang smiled: "They'll come back begging me."
