Chapter 453 - An Unimaginable Sight!

Chapter 453: An Unimaginable Sight!

Ling Yun asked Tang Meng, “I told you to rent a boat. How is that going?”

Tang Meng had already guessed that Ling Yun would ask about this. He smiled before saying, “Brother Yun, you don’t have to worry about it. I have it all prepared, but…”

Ling Yun furrowed his brow and asked, “But what?”

Tang Meng chuckled. “Hehe, Brother Yun, I don’t think you can drive it!”

Hearing this, Ling Yun’s mind started spinning. If Tang Meng didn’t remind him, he really wouldn’t have considered that.

However, since Tang Meng had brought it up like this, he obviously had a solution in mind. Glaring at Tang Meng, he said, “Hurry up and tell me, what do I do about that?”

Pointing at Qingshui Lake, he smiled and said to Ling Yun, “Brother Yun, learning how to drive a boat is easier than a car. There are so many boats on Qingshui Lake. I have a friend who runs a boat rental business there. Let’s go have some fun there tomorrow…”

Tang Meng had thought it through thoroughly, leaving Ling Yun very satisfied.

Ling Yun nodded, agreeing. Then, he said to the two, “From tomorrow onwards, the two of you have to purchase as much medicine as you can. I’ll give you the list of medicine that you have to obtain. Just follow it and purchase the stuff…”

This wasn’t the first time Tie Xiaohu had done this. He smiled and asked, “Brother Yun, how much should I get?”

Ling Yun chuckled and said, “Not much, twenty million worth!”

“Ah!”

“So much!”

Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu exchanged looks. It was the first time he was buying so many supplies. It was enough to start a pharmaceutical company.

Ling Yun’s expression was serious yet proud. He said seriously, “This time, both of you get ten million each. Store all of the medicine in the mansion here. If the storage room isn’t big enough, feel free to use the gym, storeroom, or garage. Sort them by type. I’ll use them after I get back.”

Ling Yun’s entire Mansion Number One was like a Qi-gathering fortress, and it was constantly absorbing the Qi nearby. All the plants in his courtyard were immersed in thick Qi. Naturally, they had Qi energy within them.

Since Ling Yun had created this Spirit Gathering Formation, even a weed in Ling Yun’s courtyard looked much more green and luscious compared to other courtyards. They were lively and sparkling.

With Ling Yun’s progress, he could create even higher-leveled talismans. Naturally, he had to use more medical supplies, and he had greater expectations for their quality too.

However, the quality of the supplies on the market was about the same. Ling Yun could only buy them in advance and store them in Mansion Number One to absorb Qi. With time, Ling Yun would be able to create stronger pills and talismans with better effects!

The supplies needed to make talismans were fewer. After Ling Yun reached Physique Tempering Stage Seven, which was in the late stages, he wanted to start creating pills. The number of supplies needed to do that was astonishing. He had no choice but to prepare them in advance.

Ling Yun smiled and continued saying, “Also, we can’t just use these four black dog’s blood to make talismans in future. Get a few more in our courtyard…”

Ling Yun told the two of them to prepare sufficient yellow paper and cinnabar for him. Once he was done allocating important jobs, he quickly left them with a few words before dismissing them.

After Tang Meng and Tie Xiaohu left, Ling Yun drew another two hundred talismans. When it was finally time for after-class revision, he drove to school to pick up Xue Meining.

He hadn’t met Ning Er in two days and had really started to miss the little temptress. Picking her up, he headed to Mansion Number One first.

Leaving the car, Ling Yun wrapped his arm around Xue Meining’s slender waist. Under the hazy night skies, they walked towards Qingshui Lake.

Dugu Mo was ignored by the two. He could only glare at Ling Yun with a jealous look as he cursed silently. “Hmph, it’s a different pretty girl this time. Wait until the day all of them meet each other, I’ll see how you die then!”

…

“Big Brother Yun…”

“Yeah?”

“Where are we going?”

“I’ll take you somewhere nice to play. Then, we’ll head to Dragon Mountain after that…”

The two came to the lakeside. Finding a quiet and secluded space, Ling Yun stood on a rock by the shore as he pointed to the water. “Ning Er, do you want to play in the water?”

“Ah!” The little temptress was a little stunned and shy. Rolling her eyes at Ling Yun, she said in a high voice, “Brother Yun, you’re so mean. I’m not going into the water with you!”

Ling Yun laughed and said, “Ning Er, relax. We won’t get wet!”

Xue Meining gave Ling Yun a strange look as she replied, “Liar, there isn’t a boat here. We’ll definitely get wet!”

Amused, Ling Yun took out two Water Trap Talismans, giving one to Xue Meining. He said to Xue Meining, “Let Brother Yun show you a magic trick…”

Ling Yun’s appearance made Xue Meining giggle as she responded, “Then, show it to me!”

Ling Yun lifted his hands and stuck the Water Trap Talisman onto himself. He chanted “activate” in his heart as he stepped into the water.

“Ah!” Xue Meining was in so much shock that she subconsciously extended her hand to pull him back.

Then, an unbelievable sight occurred. The lake water seemed to have another life as it drifted to the sides. The waters by the shore weren’t deep. Stepping on the rocks under the lake, not a single drop of water splattered on him!

During Xue Meining’s shock, Ling Yun smiled while he walked three steps. With that, the lake water was already at his waist. However, it was just lake water near his body.

The places that Ling Yun had walked through filled with water once again. However, they were always half a meter away from Ling Yun’s body!

This was simply a miracle!

Ling Yun took another step forward. This time, the lake water was already at his neck. Turning to smile at Xue Meining, he stepped back and returned, pushing the lake water near him away. Quickly, Ling Yun returned to shore.

After he returned, the lake water returned to the way it was, and light ripples appeared on the surface. It was as if nothing had happened just now.

“Isn’t it fun?” Ling Yun said proudly to the stunned Xue Meining.

Touching the clothes on Ling Yun’s body, Xue Meining even bent down to check his pants and realized that his clothes were completely dry. Not a single drop of water had gotten on him. She was instantly puzzled.

“Wh-what happened?” Xue Meining asked in shock.

Ling Yun pointed at the Water Trap Talisman in the little temptress’s hands as he said, “This talisman is called the Water Trap Talisman. Stick it on your body and shout ‘activate’. Within a minute, no water will get onto your body.”

“Is… is this for real?” Xue Meining felt disbelief.

Ling Yun chuckled. “If you don’t believe it, why don’t you stick it on and give it a try…”

The little temptress thought about it for a long time. Suddenly, she blushed and said, “Brother Yun, why don’t you use another one and do it with me?”

Ling Yun immediately pulled out another talisman and stuck it on himself. Then, he said to Ning Er, “On the count of three, we’ll shout ‘activate’ together. Then, we’ll go in.”

“One, two, three! Activate!”

Xue Meining shouted “activate” with Ling Yun. Then, she hugged Ling Yun’s elbow tightly and carefully walked towards the water.

Obviously, there was no problem. Xue Meining and Ling Yun walked three steps into the lake together, immersing in the mystical power of the Water Trap Talisman. She got even bolder as she asked excitedly and curiously, “Brother Yun, what happens if we walk forward and the water level is higher than our heads?”

Ling Yun smiled and explained, “This is only a Level One Water Trap Talisman. It can only make sure that the lake water doesn’t come within half a meter of our bodies. If we keep walking forward, the lake water will close up above our heads.”

“Once the effect of the Water Trap Talisman disperses, the lake water will rush in, and we’ll be drenched.”

Xue Meining exclaimed, “Ah, then we’d better return now!”

Ling Yun chuckled. “Don’t worry. We still have half a minute. It’s effective for about a minute or so.”

The two of them continued chatting as they turned around and walked back to the shore. Soon, they arrived.

Xue Meining saw the lake water return to its original state. Excitedly, she said, “It’s so fun… Brother Yun, give me a few more…”

Smiling, Ling Yun gave another eight talismans to Xue Meining. The little temptress walked a few laps around the lake boldly. Having lots of fun, she squealed excitedly.

“Alright, that’s enough. We’re heading to Dragon Mountain now!”

It was already late at night. There weren’t any other tourists left at Qingshui Lake. Pulling Xue Meining’s delicate body to him, he used his ability and headed to Dragon Mountain immediately.

They reached the peak of the mountain quickly, and Ling Yun put her down. Holding onto the rails, he looked in the direction of the crater as he said to the little temptress, “Ning Er, Brother Ling Yun brought you here today because he has something important to tell you!”

Rejoicing, Xue Meining’s beautiful face looked shy as she thought Ling Yun was about to propose to her.

However, Ling Yun said gently, “Ning Er, what do you plan to do about the Heart-Devouring Gu Insect in your grandpa’s body?”

Xue Meining froze as she said, “Brother Ling Yun, didn’t you say that you’d force that worm out of Grandpa in two months?”

Ling Yun shook his head as he said, “If I force the Heart-Devouring Gu Insect out, Miao Fenghuang will die from the curse…”

“Ah! This…”

Xue Meining was very kind. She knew that Miao Fenghuang was very pitiful. She didn’t want to see that happen.

“Then… what can we do?” Xue Meining asked anxiously.

Ling Yun patted the little temptress’ head as he said gently, “Don’t worry, I have a plan…”
