As proud as a peacock, Ling Yun marched forward with his hands behind his back. Tie Xiaohu followed him closely and quietly as if he was his shadow.

How does your body feel right now?
Ling Yun casually asked out of the blue.
Even though Tie Xiaohu was silent, waves of overwhelming emotions were crashing within him, comparable to what Ling Yun had felt when he had been absorbing the dragon spiritual energy.
His experiences today had been nothing short of incredible. First, he got beat up by Ling Yun. Then, he flew across the school field for more than 10 minutes as if he was performing acrobatics.
Next up, Ling Yun completely removed his abilities and rendered all his past training useless. Little did he know that Ling Yun was about to give him a thorough internal cleansing, tearing him down just to build him up again, making him stronger than before!
Then, Ling Yun forced him to do things four times consecutively!
For starters, forbidding him from drinking alcohol and forcing him to keep up with Ling Yun’s speed. By the time he had made it to the base of Dragon Mountain and was completely exhausted, Ling Yun still made him scale up Dragon Mountain in that state!
Tie Xiaohu was completely mesmerized and attracted by the power and strength displayed by Ling Yun. Even though he was at the point of exhaustion where he was vomiting blood and had depleted all of his strength, he still decided to persevere. Finally, after falling countless times and injuring himself in multiple areas, he made it to the peak of Dragon Mountain!
Tie Xiaohu thought, Finally, this should be the end of my trials, right? Little did he know, he could not be more wrong. Ling Yun forbade him from sitting or lying down, forcing him to stand in his state of extreme exhaustion!
After countless trials, Tie Xiaohu was the only person capable of withstanding the pain and torture that came along with him overcoming his physical limits with sheer determination. If it had been anyone else, they would have been crippled by the pressure and torture!
It was also under such a condition that Tie Xiaohu had the opportunity of witnessing that once-in-a-lifetime waterspout that was beyond magnificent!
The sight of the waterspout triggered the determination within him and awakened his body’s potential as his spirit was shaken to the core. Without a doubt, the waterspout has brought about a rush that had never before been experienced by him! Now, he finally understood how much potential he had!
In a mere 3 hours, Ling Yun had managed to open a door for Tie Xiaohu! A door of miracles!
Tie Xiaohu had managed to persevere. He rejoiced at the fact that he made it to the end!
He also understood why Ling Yun had made him stand even though he was past the point of exhaustion!
After Ling Yun made him undergo internal cleansing and the torturous training that would be unbearable for any ordinary person, Tie Xiaohu was surprised to realize that he recovered his strength quickly after standing through his exhaustion for one minute! Not only did he recover his strength, he was even stronger than before!
Tie Xiaohu had never seen or heard of a training that had such instantaneous results!
Naturally, this was Ling Yun’s ultimate physique tempering.
Tie Xiaohu had managed to recover more than half of his strength before they began going down the mountain. By the time they arrived at the base of the mountain, Tie Xiaohu realized that his strength had reached a new peak that he had never experienced before!
Right now, Tie Xiaohu could feel the sheer energy and strength coursing through his body. Never had he felt this strong before in his entire life. With every step that he took, his body was in perfect synchronization. Not a single body part was out of place.

It’s a sensation I’ve never experienced before! It’s great! I feel as if I’m twice as strong as before, if not even more!

Happiness and determination radiated from Tie Xiaohu’s expression as he replied Ling Yun.
Ling Yun nodded his head.
Right now, I’m giving you another chance to make a decision. You can choose to work with me, or leave now and never to return.

Ling Yun said as he continued marching forward without turning his head around.

Work with you! Till death do us part!
Tie Xiaohu replied without hesitation, as certain as death and taxes!
A faint smile crossed Ling Yun’s lips. He did not nod, neither did he say a word. His eyes swept across his surroundings and landed on a shopping mall by the road. Quickly, he turned towards the mall and marched into it.

Did you bring any money? Go get some clothes that you like and change into those.
As Ling Yun’s apprentice and underling, he could not possibly follow him around while dressed like this.
This was not Ling Yun’s style.

Best if you buy something more durable and sturdy. The upcoming days aren’t going to be easy.

Ling Yun chuckled as he reminded Tie Xiaohu.
Twenty minutes later, Tie Xiaohu left the shopping mall with Ling Yun, dressed in light blue denim from head to toe. He casually threw his old and tattered clothes into a nearby trash can.
It seemed as if Tie Xiaohu was bidding goodbye to his past.
Ling Yun was all smiles as he flagged down a taxi. Right after they got into the car, the taxi sped off towards the hospital where Liu Li’s husband, Li Yunxiang, had been admitted.
…

Liu Li. This Ling Yun whom you’ve talked about, when is he going to arrive?

City Ninth People’s Hospital, seventh floor, neurology ward. With a worried expression on her face, Liu Li’s mother-in-law stayed by her son’s hospital bed as she asked her daughter-in-law an endless stream of questions.
God knows how many times she had said this sentence since yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon, after Liu Li returned to the hospital, Liu Li’s mother-in-law had been surprised to see her frail daughter-in-law filled with energy and no longer with a sallow appearance. She could not help but question her what was going on.
Not only was Liu Li’s health improving, she was beyond excited after she found out that Ling Yun might be able to heal her husband. She quickly shared this piece of news with her mother-in-law as she did not plan to hide it from her.
Upon hearing the news, Li Yunxiang’s mother knew that their family was about to turn their luck around and had met their lucky star. In a state of excitement, she went home that night and lit up three joss sticks as she began to kneel down to the Li Family’s spirit tablet, praying for Ling Yun’s success in healing her son.
How could she not be excited? Her son was the only child of the Li Family and her only grandchild was still in her daughter-in-law’s belly, not more than 5 months old. If her son stayed in a coma for the rest of his life and did not regain consciousness, there was no way they were going to survive the upcoming days.
She knew that her son and his wife were very in love, and her daughter-in-law was virtuous and filial. However, as the Chinese saying goes, ‘There are no filial sons before the deathbed’, let alone a young and beautiful daughter in law.
One or two months could possibly be bearable, but what if her son stayed in a coma for up to 5 years? Even if Liu Li was willing to take care of Li Yunxiang as before, as Li Yunxiang’s mother, how could she possibly not feel apologetic?
The old woman knew for a fact that it was best if her son can come out of his coma. However, if he really did remain in his vegetative state for the rest of his life, it might as well be the end of the Li Family!

Mom, don’t worry. Since Ling Yun promised that he would come, he will definitely show up. Furthermore, it’s not as if I don’t know where he lives. If it really comes down to it, I’ll go look for him at his house and beg him!

Li Yunxiang’s mother let out a gentle sigh as she thought to herself, He has already helped us out with such a huge favor and all I gave him was a useless brush. What else can I possibly give in order to beg for his help?

Sigh, as long as Ling Yun is able to save Yunxiang, I’ll do anything for him. I can even be his slave!

The old woman let out another sigh. Her murky and bloodshot eyes were fixed on Li Yunxiang, who was lying completely still on the hospital bed with his head wrapped in bandages.
Right at this moment, Liu Li’s phone began to ring. Her beautiful face immediately brightened up with excitement once she saw the caller ID on her phone.

Mom, look, Ling Yun is calling me right now!

Li Yunxiang’s mother sprung up from her stool and shrieked,
Pick up! What are you looking at me for!

Liu Li hurriedly picked up the phone call.

Ms. Liu, I’m at the hospital right now. Mind telling me which ward you are in right now?

Liu Li hastily told him the room number and asked him in excitement,
Do you need me to go down and fetch you?

Ling Yun knew that she was pregnant. How could he possibly allow her to come downstairs? Therefore, he told her that he would be there right away before hanging up the phone call.
Ling Yun and Tie Xiaohu took the elevator to the seventh floor and noticed a heavily pregnant Liu Li waiting at the elevator door once they exit the elevator.
Liu Li began to talk to him intimately once she spotted Ling Yun’s familiar Nike sportswear.
Big brother, you’re finally here. My mother in law is so anxious… Eh…

Suddenly, Liu Li was left in a daze after noticing Ling Yun’s outrageously handsome face!
This… This… This is Ling Yun?!
How did he become this handsome all of a sudden?! Liu Li’s jaw dropped as she stood there with her index finger pointed at Ling Yun’s face. Her tiny mouth was getting bigger and bigger and she simply could not believe her eyes!
When Tie Xiaohu had been shopping for clothes just now, Ling Yun had already checked himself out using the mirror from a fitting room in the shopping mall. He had to admit, he truly was extremely handsome!
Seeing Liu Li’s shocked expression, a perfect smile crossed Ling Yun’s lips as he teased Liu Li.
What’s wrong, Ms. Liu? Am I not welcome?

An unmistakable blush flashed across Liu Li’s pretty little face as she looked at Ling Yun’s mesmerizing smile that was attractive enough to kill. She wanted to lower her gaze but she was also unwilling to look away at the same time. Her heart began to race as she answered blankly,
Wel…come… why wouldn’t you be welcomed?

Ling Yun smiled as he nodded his head.
Then, let’s go…


Go, go…

Liu Li moved her legs mechanically as she lead Ling Yun back to her husband’s hospital ward.
No one could blame Liu Li for her reaction, it was not that she was boy crazy. It was just that Ling Yun’s face had too much of an impact on women, capable of captivating any woman within a blink of an eye.
At the entrance of the ward, Ling Yun had nothing to be shy about as he pushed the door open and entered the ward. As Liu Li stuttered while introducing Ling Yun, he briefly greeted Li Yunxiang’s mother before arriving at Li Yunxiang’s bedside.
On the other hand, Tie Xiaohu stayed by the entrance and did not follow Ling Yun into the room.
Ling Yun first took a look at Li Yunxiang’s complexion before slightly furrowing his thick bushy brows. He then placed his fingers on Li Yunxiang’s wrist.
Ling Yun could tell that Li Yunxiang was practically stuck in a vegetative state with just one glance. He figured that someone with medical skills equivalent to Old Man Xue would be able to save his life, but relying on the hospital to save him? Not a chance!
Half a minute later, Ling Yun withdrew his hand that was taking the pulse before speaking to the anxious yet hopeful mother and daughter-in-law calmly,
Don’t worry, I can save him!

Li Yunxiang’s mother nearly dropped to the ground in sheer excitement the moment she heard that as tears began to stream down her face! Ling Yun quickly helped her up and let her rest on the stool.
As for Liu Li, her reaction was also not far off from her mother-in-law’s. Her chest rose and fell rapidly as she asked with a trembling voice,
You can really save him?!

Ling Yun did not give an answer. He smiled as he instructed the mother and daughter-in-law to remove all the useless tubes that were connected to Li Yunxiang’s body as well as all the blankets.
Ling Yun took out the leather needle pouch from his pocket and opened it with a flick of his wrist before picking out nine gold needles!
Even though nine silver needles would be sufficient to carry out the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot in order to heal Li Yunxiang in his current state, Ling Yun decided to use gold needles instead because Liu Li had given him the mystical brush!
Right at this moment, a beautiful nurse entered the room and screamed as she witnessed the scene before her!

What are you doing?!
