Chapter 737: Increasing Combat Power, Tang Meng’s Arrival in Beijing
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ling Yun didn’t leave after breakfast. He used the whole morning to impart some of his martial arts to Ling Lie and Cui Lao.

Ling Yun wanted to increase the combat power of the two strongest men in the Ling Family as soon as possible!

The Dragon Fish Phantom Ability, Tiangang Demon Fist, Vault of Heaven Fist, Wind Thunder Leg, Raging Waves Internal Skill, Formless Sword Technique, Ninth Killing Technique, Spirit Potency Art, Stellar Condensation Technique, and the mysterious Dragon Elephant Divine Force!

Footwork, fist skill, palm skill, leg skill, internal skill, two sets of peerless swordsmanship techniques, the Spirit Potency Art, a fantastic physique tempering skill, and a skill to multiply the potency of combat power!

If he were to add on the Celestial Destroyer Technique that he imparted to Cui Lao earlier, that would be all.

Ling Yun didn’t hide anything from his own grandpa. He even got a pen and paper and wrote down every skill in detail. He then displayed all of them once and pointed out the key points and the difficulties to Ling Lie and Cui Lao.

Ling Lie was rendered speechless when he saw all of these martial arts!

Ling Lie knew that any one of these martial arts could stir a bloodbath in the martial arts world. Any of them would enable someone to become a top-notch martial artist!

“My dear grandchild, tell Grandpa honestly. Will you get in trouble with your sect if you impart these to others?”

Ling Lie was a little hesitant to learn them in the end!

Ling Yun smiled happily. “Grandpa, don’t worry, I’m the head of the Immortal Physician Sect now, so the decision is in my hands!”

“Uh… It looks like Grandpa worried over nothing. Grandpa didn’t know you had so many powerful martial arts. You might be able to rival someone at Xiantian Realm Level Nine…” Ling Lie guessed.

He had yet to attain Xiantian Realm Level Nine after all. He had to make an educated guess based on what he heard.

Ling Yun snickered. That was more like it. These martial arts were top secret and weren’t imparted in the Cultivation World. If these were nothing, Ling Yun could only search around frantically for medicinal herbs to concoct pills.

Moreover, Ling Yun hadn’t divulged that he had the divine sense, the Yin-Yang harmony balance, the Yin-Yang Eye, the Divine Yang cultivation technique, the Supreme Azure Emperor Art, the Omnipotent Water Control Technique, and the Acheron Earth God Skill. All of these were the true cultivation techniques!

If Ling Yun couldn’t rival someone at Xiantian Realm Level Nine, his cultivation would be for nothing!

Ling Yun had the confidence to escape at the very least!

“Grandpa, take your time to master these skills that I’m imparting to you with Cui Lao. Please remember not to impart them to others…” Ling Yun reminded Ling Lie when he was done imparting the skills.

“I’m afraid they might be captured and tortured if they were to display them..” Ling Yun explained immediately. It was clear his grandpa was curious.

Ling Yun didn’t tell Ling Lie the truth. His real reason was that he didn’t trust Ling Zhen and Ling Hao. Ling Zhen was 100% fishy, and Ling Yun didn’t like Ling Hao from the moment he saw his photo.

Why did Ling Yun go through so much trouble to help Ling Lie raise his cultivation base last night while he only cured the rest of their injuries?

It was simple. Ling Yun had yet to fully trust the people of the Ling Family. He needed to observe them.

Ling Yun didn’t like to do things he had no confidence in. It was the same in saving people.

Doubt flashed across Ling Lie’s face, but he disguised it immediately. “Rascal, you thought it out quite well… Alright, we’ll listen to you!”

Ling Yun saw the expression but didn’t say anything. He felt that Grandpa Ling must have some difficulty he couldn’t speak about.

…

Ling Lie was right. Many of the major families in Beijing came over to visit Ling Lie, but they were rejected with the reason that Ling Lie was sick.

Ling Yue didn’t appear either. Everything relating to the Ling Family was still handled by the head of the family, Ling Zhen, alone.

The one thing that tickled Ling Yun’s funny bone was that the Chen Family actually sent someone as well. That person behaved normally, as though everything last night didn’t happen.

These people were here to see if the rumors were true.

Unfortunately, all evidence of what happened last night was destroyed. The enemies were dead, dissolved into yellow liquid and washed into the underground drain. As for Chen Haizhen and his gang, they were burnt to ashes. The Ling Family, on the other hand, was functioning normally!

That shocked everyone who came to find out the truth!

“Yun Er, did you see it? This is Beijing, and its political game. Everyone might look to be in harmony on the surface, but they all have knives behind their backs…”

The killings and storms were in the night. Everything became a facade when day broke.

“So this is Beijing, interesting…” Ling Yun’s mouth curled up into a smile of disdain.

Humans were the same, no matter where they were.

Ling Yun didn’t want to have lunch in the Ling Family at first. However, he conceded since Grandpa Ling kept asking him to stay. They had a delicious meal together with Cui Lao and even had some wine.

Ling Yun could see that Grandpa Ling was genuinely good to him. Grandpa Ling would laugh if he so much as glanced at Ling Yun.

After lunch, Ling Yun received a call from Tang Meng. He had reached Beijing and was approaching the Fifth Ring Road. He asked Ling Yun where he should head.

Ling Yun then took his leave from Ling Lie and changed out of his nocturnal clothing into a white t-shirt and jeans. After that, he left the Ling Family’s villa quietly through the back door.

He hailed a random taxi and arrived at the courtyard house on the northwest side of Beijing in half an hour.

Ling Yun didn’t enter. He waited for a short while and saw two cars approaching. One of them was the Hummer, the other was Ling Yun’s Land Rover.

Tang Meng had arrived.

Tang Meng jumped out of the car before the car was parked and gave Ling Yun a bear hug.

“Big Brother Yun, I missed you so much, wuwuwu…” Tang Meng was still smiling when he emerged from the car, but his eyes turned red once he hugged Ling Yun. Tears fell down like rain and drenched Ling Yun’s shoulders in no time.

Ling Yun was speechless. He patted Tang Meng’s back. “Ooi, it isn’t that serious, is it? I just changed my clothes…” he said in a spirited manner.

Tang Meng bawled his eyes out even more. That made the three Green Dragon Sect members who came with him unsure of what to do.

“Alright, stop crying! Follow me into the courtyard!”

Ling Yun helplessly pushed Tang Meng away. He could feel Tang Meng’s brotherly love towards him, but this was simply too embarrassing.

“Hehe…” Tang Meng grinned and wiped the tears away. He turned to the three young men and said, “I couldn’t help it, I really couldn’t help it… Look after the cars, you three.”

Ling Yun then brought Tang Meng into the living room.

“Tie Xiaohu isn’t here?” Ling Yun asked with a smile.

Tang Meng scowled at the mention of Tie Xiaohu. “Big Brother Yun, don’t talk about him. He’ll be the death of me. He’s busy cultivating like a mad man!”

“He only eats when it’s absolutely necessary, and he’s not even sleeping. He just sits in the yard of your Mansion Number One, cultivating! He isn’t even changing his clothes!

“I have to get someone to send him food every day. If not, he might really die of starvation! Others usually stay at home to play video games, but not him! He’s just hugging your big piece of rock!”

“That rascal…” Ling Yun was slightly shocked and moved. He knew that Tie Xiaohu was so devoted to cultivation because he wanted to stand behind him and be of help to him.

“Did you bring the stuff?” Ling Yun asked.

“Yes, Big Brother Yun, we got all the medicinal herbs you asked for. Every type is in a separate bag. They were personally picked by Miao Xiaomiao and Ning Er. You should be able to use them for quite some time.”

“What about silver?”

“Two hundred kilograms of silver is in the cars. It wasn’t expensive, just about a million yuan…”

“You could have just sent all of this small stuff over, why are you here?” Ling Yun asked.

“Big Brother Yun, I missed you. You went away in such a hurry, I didn’t even have the chance to give you a proper farewell…” Tang Meng said excitedly.

Tang Meng had always wanted to come to Beijing, but he knew that Ling Yun wouldn’t let him because it was dangerous. He, therefore, grabbed the opportunity when Ling Yun asked him for the raw materials.

The sound of engines alerted Ling Yun to the gate. Ling Yun used his divine sense and realized that Cui Lao was also here with his men.
