Xue Meining and Miao Xiaomiao left Qingshui High immediately after night study.

They returned not to Ling Yun’s Mansion Number One but to Miracle Doctor Xue’s home.

Xue Meining received a text message from her mother. Her parents, Xue Chengye and Zhang Manyun, rushed back to Qingshui City for Ling Yun’s grand opening. They just got home.

Ling Yun gave such a precious gift on Xue Meining’s birthday. They had to return the gesture now that Ling Yun’s clinic was opening.

“Mummy…” Xue Meining saw her mother watering the plants as soon as she stepped into the yard. She plunged into Zhang Manyun’s hands.

“Oh my, my precious darling, mummy missed you so so much…” Zhang Manyun hugged Xue Meining tightly and rained kisses on her forehead.

“Hello, Aunty!” Miao Xiaomiao greeted Zhang Manyun with a sweet smile.

“Are you Xiaomiao? Come here quick, Aunty wants to take a good look at you. Oh my, you are so beautiful, and taller than Ning Er!”

Zhang Manyun released Xue Meining and held Miao Xiaomiao’s hand instead, full of praises for her.

Xue Meining was a girl and had Ling Yun. Miao Xiaomiao was a girl as well. Both of them were Miracle Doctor Xue’s precious granddaughters, but they weren’t fighting over his inheritance.

Zhang Manyun also came from an established family. She was knowledgeable, gentle, and kind. She was sympathetic after hearing about Miao Fenghuang’s fate and would naturally not alienate Miao Xiaomiao.

“Where is Grandpa?” Xue Meining asked.

“Your grandpa is talking with your dad in the secret room. Don’t disturb them now.”

Zhang Manyun held Xue Meining in her left hand and Miao Xiaomiao in her right hand and walked towards the living room.

Inside Miracle Doctor Xue’s secret room.

“Father, this was made according to your request. A total of 365 needles made of pure gold…” Xue Chengye pointed to a rectangular jade box on the table and said respectfully to Miracle Doctor Xue.

Miracle Doctor Xue picked up a few golden needles, tested them in his hand, and smiled. “Yes, the weight, thickness, and length are precise. Not bad…”

“Keep it. Give this to Ling Yun tomorrow.” Miracle Doctor Xue placed the golden needles back into the jade box. “However, these are hardly enough,” Miracle Doctor Xue said after a pause.

“This is nothing compared to what Ling Yun has given us. However, I don’t know what should be given. The decision lies with you, Father.” Xue Chengye smiled.

Miracle Doctor Xue nodded. “Now the Gu insect in my body has been completely suppressed by Ling Yun. It no longer invades my body. The plants in my yard are now useless to me. Give all of them to Ling Yun!”

“However, Ling Yun’s medical skills are much more advanced than mine. Tell Ning Er to come and take them anytime he requires them.”

“In addition, I have some Tianshan Snow Lotus, Red Yang Grass, and Gelsemium elegans in my collection. They are all in my secret warehouse. Take all of that along with you tomorrow. Ling Yun can use them to make medicine in the future.”

“I understand, Father.” Xue Chengye nodded.

“The majority of our assets are in the northern part of the Yangtze River and in the Eastern Three Provinces, with a small portion in the southern part of the Yangtze River. I think we should give all of the southern part to Ling Yun so that he can start learning how to manage it…” Miracle Doctor Xue continued.

“… so that he can take over in the future.” Miracle Doctor Xue didn’t verbalize this part of the sentence, but he knew his son would understand.

He only had one grandchild, Xue Meining, at first. She would definitely marry Ling Yun. These assets would definitely belong to Ling Yun when Xue Chengye entered retirement in the future. Who else could take over?

Even though there was a Miao Xiaomiao now, Miracle Doctor Xue knew better than anyone else that the wealth of the Holy Virgin of Miaojiang far surpassed that of the Xue Family. Miao Xiaomiao would definitely not compete with Xue Meining for inheritance.

Xue Chengye was startled. “Give it all to Ling Yun?” he asked in a casual tone.

The assets in the south might be the smallest, but they were worth at least one billion yuan. To give it all to Ling Yun…

It wasn’t that he was reluctant to part with it, he was just afraid that Ling Yun might not be able to handle it and would destroy it.

“Or perhaps, leave one or two companies?” Miracle Doctor Xue looked at his son with an amused expression.

Xue Chengye scratched his head and said no more. His father was generous and knew the best way to cut the cake.

“Your father can live another thirty to forty years because of Ling Yun’s medical skills. I’ll probably be able to carry my great-great-grandchild. Are five or six small companies a lot?”

“Ling Yun’s career has just started. The world is his oyster. You will know in the time to come, these small companies will be nothing then. One billion yuan? Hahaha…” Miracle Doctor Xue laughed.

“My world view is too narrow…” Xue Chengye bowed his head and admitted his mistake sincerely.

“Alright, guess what Ning Er will ask us to give Ling Yun.” Miracle Doctor Xue jested.

“There’s no need to guess. It will be money…” Xue Chengye grinned.

“In that case, give as much as she wants!”

Miracle Doctor Xue’s laughter rang happily after settling the matter.

How many people’s hearts were affected just because of the opening of Ling Yun’s Ordinary People’s Clinic?

Ling Yun wanted to do it low-key, but could he achieve it?

It would be even more difficult than ascending to the heavens!

The Long Family desperately wanted to get into Ling Yun’s good books. The core family members had several rounds of secret discussions after hearing about Ling Yun’s clinic opening. The topic? The congratulatory gift for Ling Yun.

“We have to befriend Ling Yun no matter the cost. He has the dragon saliva. The Long 1 Family has to win in everything related to dragons!”

That was an absolutely top-secret order given by the current head of the Long Family, Long Haoran!

The family had existed for thousands of years in the history of Huaxia. They experienced peaks and depressions throughout history. There was a huge collection of secret martial arts books.

All cultivators from the Long Family had to cultivate the Dragon Control Tactic!

The Dragon Control Tactic had nine major realms, and each major realm had nine minor realms of their own. As long as someone in the family could attain the seventh major realm, that person would automatically become an elder. It would hold true, regardless of age and gender!

That was the family core, which meant participation in all decision making related to the Long Family!

The difficulty wasn’t to be underestimated.

It was extremely difficult to reach the fourth major realm, let alone the seventh major realm!

In fact, it wasn’t that difficult to cultivate the Dragon Control Tactic for those who possessed the bloodline of the Long Family. In the past, they could attain the seventh realm easily.

However, that all changed after the demise of the Qing Dynasty. The Long Family’s glory declined as the Dragon Qi became increasingly scarce.

Even so, the Long Family controlled the lifeline of Huaxia with the riches they had accumulated over thousands of years. The other families were unable to catch up.

To the Long Family, anything to do with dragons — dragon muscles, dragon blood, dragon spiritual energy, dragon saliva, dragon meridians, etc. — were supreme treasures that could improve their cultivation tremendously.

Such was the fate of the Long Family!

Throughout their long history, as long as they found something belonging to that of a dragon, they could become powerful instantly.

Eighteen years ago, the Long Family found the burial place of a dragon. Unfortunately, they needed a key to open it…

The Long Family utilized the power of their whole family to search for that key desperately. It was eventually discovered by an outstanding disciple.

However, that disciple refused to turn the key over. He even destroyed the key in front of those who were sent to kill him!

The whole family was furious, and Long Haoran wanted to kill that man. They didn’t kill him because the patriarch of the Phoenix Tribe, a secluded sect, came forward. It was only because that outstanding disciple’s wife was from the Phoenix Tribe and was pregnant.

Originally, this was an internal affair of the Long Family. The Phoenix Tribe shouldn’t have interfered. However, the patriarch forced the Long Family to submit by saying if they didn’t spare their lives, their families would never intermarry again.

There was a chance that a child born to the Long Family and the Phoenix Tribe would inherit a mysterious power.

The child might have pure blood from the Long Family or the Phoenix Tribe or an even greater mysterious blood.

Long Haoran could only choose to swallow his anger. Moreover, the key had been destroyed, so it would be useless to kill. He, therefore, drove that disciple out and severed ties with him!

They could only try to find another way, but it was to no avail for the past eighteen years! It was still tightly bolted!

Very few descendants could attain the seventh major realm now. A whole layer was missing.

It was then that the Long Family received news that Ling Yun had dragon saliva. That was why Long Tianjiao received the order!

The dragon saliva had a great impact on ordinary cultivators. If it was someone from the Long Family, the impact would be huge! A drop of it would hold ten times the effect!

Few people knew this fact.

Ling Yun knew the dragon saliva was precious, but he didn’t know the effect it would have on the Long Family. He had been giving it away rather freely.

It was lucky that he had a huge amount left. He had only used up one percent of it, and the rest was safely tucked away in the mysterious gourd.

Wouldn’t it make the most sense for the Long Family to desperately try to please Ling Yun then?
