“Ling Yun is here? Great, great! Hehheh…”

A burly Xue Zhengqi greeted them from the villa. His face looked rosy and refreshed.

Xue Meining clung tightly onto Ling Yun, squeezing her breasts onto Ling Yun’s arms. They walked up to Miracle Doctor Xue.

Miracle Doctor Xue took notice of every single gesture between them but pretended not to see. He sized Ling Yun up and and was happy with what he saw.

Miracle Doctor Xue turned his smile to Ling Yun. “I heard about yesterday night. You are really a hero, Ling Yun. I hope you did not hurt yourself?”

“Grandpa, you are flattering me. I barely escaped last night. It’s not worth mentioning,” Ling Yun replied buoyantly.

Ling Yun scrutinized Miracle Doctor Xue very carefully. His hair was shiny, and his face looked full of spirit. “You seem much better than the last time I saw you. You look radiant and full of vitality.”

Miracle Doctor Xue had a pair of yin yang balls in his hand. He continuously turned them according to some rhythm habitually.

Ling Yun was still unable to discern Miracle Doctor Xue’s cultivation level.

Miracle Doctor Xue is either a common person or a high level master like my Mum, Ling Yun thought to himself while he smiled innocently.

However, Ling Yun had deduced that Miao Fenghuang should be at least be at Xiantian Realm since Miao Xiaomiao was already at Houtian Realm Level Six at such a young age.

It would have been impossible for Miracle Doctor Xue to escape Miao Fenghuang just by strategy alone more than forty years ago.

Xue Meining had also blurted out a hint in her excitement earlier that Grandpa Xue did not want to teach her martial arts.

That meant that Miracle Doctor Xue definitely knew martial arts. There was only one possibility for Ling Yun to be able to discern Miao Xiaomiao’s level but not Miracle Doctor Xue’s.

Grandpa Xue must be a Xiantian Realm Master without a doubt!

Ling Yun’s suspicions were absolutely on the dot!

Miracle Doctor Xue had actually reached the western suburbs before Miao Xiaomiao last night.

He was immediately aware of the presence of someone whose level was not lower than himself protecting Ling Yun in the dark. He had taken one look at the dancing Xiao Jin and returned to his own villa.

The only person who knew about this besides him was Ling Yun’s secret protector at the Xiantian Realm, Qin Qiuyue.

Miracle Doctor Xue was not about to open a can of worms, especially not when Ling Yun was not keen on discussing the events of last night.

“My body is much better now all thanks to you. Now that you mention, I have always wanted to find a suitable time to visit you at home, but I have not been able to prepare a good enough present, so…”

“Hey, don’t be modest with each other. We are all family. There is no need for this…”

Xue Meining expressed her displeasure at the courtesy between the two men.

“Oh? Yes, yes, family. We are family. Ling Yun, come on in…”

Miracle Doctor Xue glanced at his granddaughter. He patted Ling Yun’s shoulder and led him into the house.

Ling Yun was about to sit down on the sofa unceremoniously when he was pulled away by Xue Meining in another direction.

“Hehe, Big Brother Yun, let me weigh you first. I think you have grown skinnier over the past few days…”

Miracle Doctor Xue had no choice but to personally get some tea for Ling Yun while the two of them headed the other direction.

Ling Yun was probably the only one who could elicit such personal hospitality from Miracle Doctor Xue!

Xue Meining had a scale at home since she cared a great deal about her weight. She got Ling Yun to step onto it immediately.

“Wow… Big Brother Yun, you are only ninety kilograms now?! No wonder the clothes I bought today fit you so well…” Xue Meining exclaimed in wonder.

However, Ling Yun frowned.

Ling Yun was over a hundred and eighty centimeters tall and used to be about a hundred kilograms. He had managed to shed an average of two kilograms each day for a total of fifteen kilograms so far. The results would have been amazing for a normal person but not for Ling Yun, especially since he was practicing the Stellar Condensation Technique.

The weight loss is getting slower. A dissatisfied Ling Yun shook his head and got off the scale.

He had neglected his personal training for the past few days. Too many things had happened.

Guess I’ll need another month. Ling Yun’s target weight was seventy-five kilograms. He had only managed to shed half of it. His weight loss had naturally slowed down since there was less fat on his body.

“I will weigh myself as well.” Xue Meining stepped onto the scale.

“Ugh!” Xue Meining’s scream shocked both Ling Yun and Miracle Doctor Xue. Ling Yun lowered his head to find the needle pointing directly at the fifty kilograms mark.

“Oh my gosh! Why did I gain half a kilogram?!” Xue Meining uttered in horror.

“Ning Er, you are almost as tall as me, but you are forty kilograms lighter than me. You should put on more weight actually.” Ling Yun chuckled.

He secretly wondered if the weight gain could be because Xue Meining’s breasts had grown bigger.

“You made me eat so much this morning. It’s all your fault! Hmph!” Xue Meining pushed all of the blame onto Ling Yun.

Miracle Doctor Xue laughed as he listened on in the sofa. He beckoned Ling Yun to come over. “Ning Er is crazy about her weight. Just ignore her. Come and have some tea with me.

Ling Yun complied.

“Ning Er, order some good food for Ling Yun,” Miracle Doctor Xue instructed Xue Meining.

“Okay…” Xue Meining did as instructed, still puzzled about her weight gain.

“Grandpa Xue, I would like to discuss something with you…” Ling Yun whispered to Miracle Doctor Xue while Xue Meining was on the phone.

“Oh, what is it?” Miracle Doctor Xue asked.

“Grandpa Xue, do you really want to expel the heart-devouring Gu insect from your body?” Ling Yun asked Miracle Doctor Xue with telepathy since he felt that there was no need to hide his true capabilities.

“Sigh, there really is nothing I can hide from you, lad. To be honest, I was thinking about it over these few days while I was enjoying my light body.” Miracle Doctor Xue frowned and slapped his thigh.

Miracle Doctor Xue was probably reluctant since it would gravely endanger Miao Fenghuang’s life. They were once a couple. It was definitely difficult for Miracle Doctor Xue to make such a decision.

“Grandpa Xue, do you really have no more feelings for Miao… erm, her?” Ling Yun might have a way out if he still had.

Miracle Doctor Xue reddened with that question. “I am a bald old man nearing seventy. What feelings could I still have for her? Ling Yun, lad, even if I could throw my pride away, Miao Fenghuang…”

Miao Fenghuang was a prideful lady. Miracle Doctor Xue knew it better than anyone else. They had been fighting each other for over forty years. This grudge could not be resolved so easily.

Miracle Doctor Xue seemed to be wavering. “Grandpa Xue, I can be your mediator if you trust in me. What do you think?” suggested Ling Yun.

Miracle Doctor Xue sat back silently, his brows locked.

Ling Yun continued to add fuel to the fire. “Grandpa Xue, it is actually inappropriate for a junior like me to interfere in your affairs. However, things are different from forty years ago. Moreover, she has waited for you for over forty years. You are alone now as well. I think it is not a big deal…”

Shackles of sorrow and remorse flashed through Miracle Doctor Xue’s eyes. He seemed to be struggling internally.

“Ling Yun, do you really have a good solution?” He finally relented.

Ling Yun nodded solemnly. “Grandpa Xue, this is a problem that we have to solve. There is a new girl in our class. She is highly skilled in martial arts and possesses a superior golden silkworm. If I am not wrong, she is here because of the heart-devouring Gu insect…”

“Oh? In your class?” Miracle Doctor Xue did not think there was anything out of the ordinary yet.

“Grandpa Xue, it doesn’t matter which class she is in. The main point is that the girl looks very similar to Ning Er, especially her eyes and nose… Who do you think she is most likely to be?

“What?!”

The color on Miracle Doctor Xue’s face changed as he sprang from his seat!
